Southeast Asian arts
SECTION: Art of the northern capital: 4th to 11th centuryThe form of the earliest temple at My Son, built by King Bhadravarman in the late 4th century, is not known. The earliest surviving fragments of art come from the second half of the 7th century, when the king was a descendant of the royal house at Chenla. The remains of the many dynastic temples built in My Son up until 980 follow a common pattern with only minor variations. It is a relatively...

Walking PastWhenever this one certain person walks past, or he takes off his coat, I can smell him, and I tell you, the scent is unique, but beautiful. I can't get enough, but he tells me I am crazy that I can even smell him. He doesn't even wear cologne.

Sony pulls controversial PSP ads
Depicting a white woman grappling with a black woman, a recent series of Sony PSP ads in the Netherlands have caused many to engage in some grappling of their own, mostly with issues and allegations of racism. After defending the images and claiming that they had "no other message or purpose" besides flaunting the white PSP, Sony has now confirmed that they have yanked the ads and banished them to a mysterious marketing misfire graveyard.
A Sony representative informed Gamespot that the decision was made based on the global reaction to an ad that was largely aimed at a specific country. The representative goes on to say that Sony "further recognize[s] that people have a wide variety of perceptions about such imagery and we wish to apologize to those who perceived the advert differently to that intended. In future, we will apply greater sensitivity in our selection of campaign imagery, and will take due account of the increasingly global reach of such local adverts, and their potential impact in other countries."
Interestingly enough, Sony claims to have only received a single complaint from within the Netherlands. It's unclear as to which is the more important lesson to be learned from all of this: Is it that marketers should wear gloves when handling potentially explosive material? Or perhaps it's that the internet always has a global eye on the moves of a large and popular corporation?

They had gotten Kendrick Perkins back in the lineup and Shaquille…

Well I have had one of my least favourite experiences today, a workman in my house. I always think they are going to end up raping and attacking me. He was very nice and I got a free upgrade for the TV upgrade he was installing so I now have the option of watching TV in bed, not that I am there very often. But it does seem like a very decadent luxury.
I saw my friend with alcohol problems today as well. She seems to be doing OK but what worries me is she is very good at appearing OK on the outside whilst not really being OK on the inside. Still hopefully how she was is for real. She insisted she was fine.
I have not heard from the other person who showed up on my doorstep again a few days ago since. I wonder if I should text her but she is hard work and i am not sure I am up to that atm.
Still hearing things including a weird exorcist like voice saying "carry me" today and thoughts racing at about a thousand miles an hour but I guess i am only day 1 into the med change so I can't expect too much yet.
I saw this rucksack I really wanted to buy today but i literally have NO money so could not get it. I still feel like going back and getting it anyway but I am sitting on my hands and forcing myself not to. That is the problem with being hypo and going into camping shops! Lol.
Well have good days peeps.

This video, guided by the poetic musings of some of our most enlightened thinkers, explores the many moods of the Lassen Volcanic Wilderness in Lassen Volcanic National Park in California.
Dinosaur National Monument Adds Visitor Programs
You really don't need any incentives beyond the spectacular beauty of Dinosaur National Monument's river corridors, fossils, and geology to convince yourself to visit this intriguing unit of the National Park System. But there are more incentives now that the park has added a variety of public programs from guided hikes and campground evening programs to the very popular Junior Ranger Program.
Preserving Natural Soundscapes In The National Parks
The National Park Service (NPS) Management Policy defines natural soundscapes as "the unimpaired sounds of nature", something to be preserved, and cherished by those visiting the parks. Think of serene, trickling creeks, cheeping robins, chirping marmots and the lullaby of crickets when dusk sweeps over your favorite park. The NPS protects these natural and cultural sounds that affect the emotions, attitudes and memories of park visitors.

Hey guys, long time listener first time caller. I'm a big fan of the show and respect the dedication everyone puts in, I've read some killer posts and learned a lot from everyone's successes and failures.
I have a Beer Makers 30L kit that has been an absolute Godsend. It's a plastic primary fermentation tank with drain spout, screw on sealed top with airlock, you know the usual basic stuff. I've made some pretty decent kit beers in it without the need for a secondary fermentation tank, so I've always been able to do without one. I just let it it ride until two days with straight readings, then bottle straight from the tank. I can't really screw it up. But something happened with a new kit beer I tried yesterday that only happened to me one other time a few years ago, and it's got me concerned: primary fermentation stopping after 1 day.
I read some threads that addressed the same concern, and I'm no longer worried that there's anything wrong with my batch. But I'm still curious why it sometimes happens. The yeast will go into binge drinking party mode and then quietly mope about rather than the usual constant moderate feasting over the course of 4-5 days. I don't really mind, other than the fact it makes me strain my eyes to read the slightest of changes to the gravity. I don't want to let my beer sit on the yeast too long (and I'm not getting a secondary fermenter until I ruin a batch!)
This is the brew in my tank now:
Munton's Gold Highland Heavy Ale kit (40 pt.)
500g dry dark malt extract (band dried non-diastatic)
Total 40 pt. (22.7 L)
kit yeast was rehydrated from tank-drawn vigorously aerated wort at 28C then pitched at same temperature
tank at constant 23C for past 24 hours
O.G. was 1.045
I came back from work today and saw the airlock level shifted, there was clear activity. I double-checked every seal was tight but alas it's dead quiet. I smelled plenty of alcohol. If I was any less experienced I would easily attribute this to just plain inconsistency. Different temps, different methods, etc. But the only difference is the kit. Based on one bad experience in the past with dated kit yeast (I will never sprinkle it again) I always rehydrate it in the wort before I pitch to ensure it's healthy. So my question is:Is it the kit yeast? This was the first "connoisseur" kit I've tried, bought from a specialist shop rather than the supermarket. Could it be that the yeast was of a much better quality with a higher cell count, and the way I rehydrate the yeast is essential for the basic kit yeasts (Coopers, Toohey's, Brigalow) but going overboard with the healthy yeast that came with Munton's?
(Note: I am not a fan of paying an extra $6-7 a brew on quality yeast as I've been brewing for years with kit yeast just fine. I'm a tightarse. I cringed when I splurged nearly $50 on this heavy ale kit when I'm used to making pretty good stuff consistently for under $20! )
Fermentation certainly shouldn't/won't be done after one day, what is the gravity now?
Hidee Ho caller.
What if any are the differences in weight if any between the Coopers, Toohey's, Brigalow and Muton's
Looks like a moot point anyway.
Yesterday I took a reading at 1.036, and wasn't too concerned. Today I checked again and my heart sunk -- still at 1.036. I don't understand.. the yeast looked fine when I rehydrated it in wort, and I pitched it at the same temperature so I couldn't have shocked it. Any ideas?
If the hydrometer remains the same tomorrow then you could have had a poor pack of yeast. Give the fermenter a swirl to introduce oxygen and check it again then. If it's still the same then I would pitch another pack of yeast.
I got another packet of yeast, this time one that I knew was good, hydrated it and pitched it. This morning it was bubbling right along at 21C. I could have thermal shocked Munton's yeast, true, but I've pitched at the same temps many times with no issues whatsoever. I just read this thread here and am starting to think it was indeed the Munton's kit yeast to blame - either it wasn't healthy or it had a very narrow temperature tolerance. The next time I buy Munton's I will remember to chuck it.
edit: doing even more research now and I have been hearing similar stories with Munton's kits about primary fermentation not completing or abnormally slow -- and the reports are all recent
The first thing I would do is find out when the kit was made, it could have been an old kit and the yeast was past its best. There will generally be a date or day and year on the packet which will tell you how old it is. There's nothing wrong with Munton's yeast it can just be that it is old or not looked after propperly. Your LHBS should give you another pack of yeast to replace a dud. I think that is the most likely scenario for why the fermentation failed.

Steve - don't be deceived by the headline. My best is that he wasn't a professional dogwalker, nor was he shot at by dog haters. It's more likely that he incidentally was walking a dog when he was shot at.

what kind of gun? - There were two different guns fired that night, one sounded like a shot gun the other sounded like a pistol.

One person is dead following a snow-related pile-up that involved around 15 cars and half a dozen tractor trailers on Interstate 5 in Clark County.
A storm has blanketed the Vancouver and Portland region with snow Thursday, snarling traffic on throughout the region and causing dozens of car crashes.
The Columbian reports (http://bit.ly/1l22UOf) the massive pile-up happened around 10 a.m. near milepost 13.
Washington state Patrol Trooper Steve Schatzel says several people were trapped in the wreckage, and others were injured. One person suffered injuries described as critical and two others suffered serious injuries. Total numbers of people injured were not known Thursday afternoon.
Age, gender and cause of the fatality were not immediately available.

Buy it!!!I got this lens pen 2 5 days ago. And it is a good product... It can remove dusts and any spots on the lens easily. Every photographer must have this equipment... Its just looks like a pen and it has a pocket hanger so that you can carry it anywhere easily...

Good for the lensThe lenspen is quite handy. I keep it in my slr bag all the time . At first when i touched the carbon tip , I noticed black grease but nothing to worry about . I used it on the lens and all the finger prints and minor scratches are gone . Although i guess the number of usages are limited ( 500 or something ) . I first use the brush to clear out the dust , then carbon tip to clear the camera lens of anything unwanted .

Deadly pen!! at 368 Rs onlynever thought that this could be a life saver for my lens... living in india with a hobby of photography can test your pocket to an extent... specially when you are on the road and all the dust and sand blowing in the camera lens with the wind....

A must have item for all photographers.This is a must have item for all photographers. It's easy to clean any lens. The brush removes dirt from any glass surface. then with the cleaning element which is carbon based i think removes all the remaining residue. Better than using a lens clothe which have the chance of scratching the lens. And it's quite small to take it wherever you go. Highly recommended.

Great find.This was an accidental discovery .. I got intrigued by the product and read pretty good reviews about it. It's a compact little thing that does its job. The utility factor is primarily why I bought it.

Good quality and express delivery by Flipkart!Hey all, though it isn't recommended to clean your lens elements at home, but not it ain't harmful either. Really good and easy to use accessory, if you follow the proper procedure.

A Good Investment for your CamerasAble to clean ones camera oneself is very essential because giving it for service every now and then is almost impossible. The lens gets filled with dust after almost every shoot. Wiping it with ordinary cloth will invite scratches. Carrying around a cloth as well as maintaining it clean is also nearly impossible. Here comes the Lenspen to the rescue. I got the Lenspen NLP-1 Lens Cleaner a few months before and I am totally satisfied with it. Easy to carry around it is helping me out a lot enabling me to maintain my camera lens clean. Up till now I used to wait till I get back to room to clean… (Expand)

Many organizations contributed to the draft framework, including OSHA, FEMA, the U.S. Coast Guard, EPA, and the American Red Cross.
NIOSH has proposed a new framework for monitoring the health and safety of emergency responders throughout the entire cycle of a response, saying the need for this was demonstrated after the 9/11 attacks a decade ago, Hurricane Katrina, and last year's Deepwater Horizon oil spill. A consortium of federal agencies, state health departments, and volunteer organizations contributed to the draft document, "Emergency Responder Health Monitoring and Surveillance," on which NIOSH seeks comments by 5 p.m. EDT April 1.
The 196-page document addresses everything from registering and credentialing responders at the start of a response to post-response medical surveillance and after-action assessment. Contributors to the document work for numerous agencies, including OSHA, FEMA, NIOSH, the U.S. Coast Guard, EPA, the New York City Fire Department, the California Department of Public Health, the American Red Cross, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the International Association of Fire Fighters.
According to NIOSH's Federal Register announcement, "The goals of this proposed system are to ensure that only properly trained and fit responders are deployed to a response, that the health and safety of all responders are appropriately monitored during a response, and that a systematic and comprehensive evaluation be conducted to determine the potential need for long term surveillance of responders' health after their deployment has been completed. This system will help to ensure that hazardous occupational exposures and signs and symptoms observed during an emergency response are utilized to mitigate adverse physical and psychological outcomes and determine whether protective measures are sufficient to prevent or reduce harmful exposures to workers. Data collected during the pre-, during-, and post-deployment phases will also help to identify which responders would benefit from medical referral and possible enrollment in a long-term health surveillance program."
Comments should be submitted to the NIOSH Docket Office, identified by Docket Number NIOSH-223, by one of these methods:

If you cringe at the idea of someone chugging some pickle juice from a jar, it may be time to embrace it — especially if you want to improve your sports performance.
Last year, Brigham Young University conducted a study that found pickle juice was in fact an effective rehydration and muscle cramp-reducing drink. Male participants in the study exercised until mild dehydration and experienced induced cramps. The subjects who drank pickle juice felt relief much faster than their counterparts who drank water or conventional sports drinks.
Even before this study was published, Yahoo reported that professional football players boasted the benefits of pickle juice -- the 2000 Philadelphia Eagles credited this salty, green liquid for their victory over the Cowboys in 110 degrees.
And they're not the only ones. In 2006, Jason Witten, tight end for the Dallas Cowboys, endorsed "Pickle Juice Sport" while Jarius Wynn, defensive end, used to drink it in high school.
Since it's so salty, it's no wonder pickle juice is full of sodium, but is also full of other electrolytes. It even helps retain water and rids those cramps.
So don't feel weird about grabbing that pickle jar from the back of your fridge on your way to your next workout — you probably weren't going to use all that brine anyway.

UPDATED: Vigil planned for Abigail Saturday in North Conway
"Oh, she so pretty, that's so sad," she said as she examined the flier, one of hundreds posted at almost every business in town, with a picture of 15-year-old Abigail Hernandez, and some wording asking for help in finding the teenager who has been missing since Oct. 9.
Her gaze, though, kept returning to the flier.
"Business has been great, we had a better foliage season than usual and we had more people here. The fliers have been drawing curiosity, which is what we want, of course, but there hasn't been any bad effects on our business from them. If anything, customers just ask a few more questions."
An exhaustive search for her is being conducted by a state and federal law enforcement missing persons team. They've been out among businesses asking questions and looking for clues. A roadblock was set up on a main town road last Thursday by FBI teams, asking residents if they had seen Hernandez or any sign of her that day.
The FBI's Kieran Ramsey was pleased to hear the fliers were being seen. The police presence, which has been as much as 100 officers in town in recent days, should not interfere with the tourist business in town, as officers have "a small footprint" in town.
Businesses may be actually doing better since the fliers went up, as visitors are seeing "a community response to this situation of all of us pulling together, and some of that is being seen and felt by our customers," said Janice Crawford, executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce.

I got a new car earlier this year and wanted it to be neat and clean for the rest of our lives together. But then I let my kids in it.
Ok, who am I kidding? My car was messy before I had the kids, but they have made it seventeen times worse. I mean, I didn't even have library books or bunny-shaped crackers before I had children.
As a Q-tip tipster, I'm sharing this carseat-cleaning concept with you today in the form of a video which I filmed in my driveway.
This video is part of a series of Q-tips-inspired posts. See some other clever uses for Q-tips on their Facebook page and YouTube channel.

July 12, 1949. ORENNEKER -2,475,221
SHOULDER HOOK CRADLE FOR TELEPHONE HANDSETS Filed June 9, 1945 V INVENTOR. H6776 Hfie/weA er ATTORNEY.
Patented July 12, 1949 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SHQU DER 11 v C E O TE E HON HANDS Herman H. Renneker, San Diego, Calif. l lll afifl un a 1 s ria o. 18.104.22.1683 1 Claim. (01. 1 79-15?) My invention relates to a shoulder hook cradle for a el ph n hand s t an th Qb e o m invention are:
First, to provide a device for holding a telephone hand set upon the shoulder of the telephone user so that the proper portions thereof are held in correct operative positions relative to the ear and mouth of the user without manual support;
Second, to provide such a device with means rendering the device easily adjustable to the individual needs of a particular user, this adjustment means allowing the adjustment of the hand set on the cradle so that the hand set will naturally assume a position allowing the normal use thereof, with the head pf the use held Wmfortably erect;
Third, to provide such a device in an aesthetically designed form, extremely light in weight, not bulky or cumbersome, and comfortable to use;
Fourth, to provide such a device which may be easily attached to a hand set and used or not used as desired, the attached device entailing no inconvenience in using the hand set without employing the shoulder hook.
Fifth, to provide such a device in a form which is inexpensive and practicable to manufacture, convenient and simple to use, and sturdy and enduring in service.
With these and other objects in view as will appear hereinafter, my invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts and portions as will be hereinafter larly set forth in the appended claim, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the characters of reference thereon which form a part of this application in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of my invention; Fig. 2 is a side elevational view of my invention; Fig. 3 is a fragmentary cross sectional view taken on a line 33 in Fig. 1 to show the means for making the device adjustable and generally to facilitate the illustration.
Similar characters of reference refer to similar or identical parts and portions throughout the views of the drawings.
The body'portion I, hook portion 2, pad 3, cradle 4, and cradle securing screw 5 constitute the principal parts and portions of my invention.
My invention is designed for combination with a standard hand set telephone and adapted for adjustable securement to the tubular spacer member of the set between the mouthpiece and described in detail and particu- 2 the earpiece which spacer member is usually of reasonably constant cross section over a COIlSid'. able ngt h r of- The y rtio s a apted to be p a ed top of the shoulder of the telephone user and. a be er ly rec ng lar in shape w h a longitudin y disp sed t ou h. it on the up e fac cf the od po tion.- Qn the und rside of e b d n iqn l prov d d oneitud nal channe l x end n thro gh u th maj r portion o he body port n and, communit n w t th t o h a th ough a o is of a len th. ne rly equa to the channel lb.
ne end o he h tly nQ tinn tap s into an int era u v d de end ng hee s p rtion 2 and. the nsid o th s hook Port on a pad 3 9 sponge rubber, felt or other material is provided to improve the gripping action of the hook on the clothing of the user of the telephone.
The cradle 4 is of curved U-shape with a part thereof shaped to conform with and fit into the trough Ia on the upper surface of the body portion I. The inner concave surface of the cradle is shaped to conform with the tubular spacer member between the mouthpiece and the earpiece of a hand set which is placed therein. The hand set is secured to the cradle by the strap yoke 4a which is removably' attached to the yoke by means of screws 4?) and 40. This yoke la holds said tubular member rigidly within the cradle.
The set screw 5 is threaded into the cradle 4 through the slot le in the said body portion and the head of the screw 5 contacts the body portion within the channel I a, thus allowing the longitudinal adjustment of the cradle 4 relative to the body portion l' and firmly attaching the cradle in a predetermined position adapted to the particular needs of the user, the cradle being disposed at an angle relative to the body portion so that the hand set is inclined towards the head of the user,
In using my invention, the hand set with the device attached thereto is placed so that the undersurface of the body portion l rests on top of the shoulder, near the neck, of the user with the hook portion 2 depending behind the shoulder. The pad 3 helps to prevent the device from slipping and mouthpiece and earpiece of the hand set will be held in proper position to allow normal use of the telephone without manual support, the hands of the user being left free for other work.
It will be seen that a shoulder-supported cradle structure embodying the present invention can be used easily and conveniently for supporting a standard telephone hand set adjacent either the left or right side of the users head. In order to adapt the structure for use at either the right or left side of the users head, the screw may be removed or loosened and the cradle 4 reversed or turned through 180 with respect to the body portion I. In either of its selected positions, the cradle structure is in a plane substantially transverse to the body portion, and a line bisecting the angle between the legs of the U of the seat in the cradle portion is at such an inclination to the vertical that the hand set positioned in the seat is inclined upwardly and inwardly from the users shoulder toward the users head with the ends of the hand set being disposed respectively adjacent the users mouth and ear.
Though I have shown and described a particular construction, combination and arrangement of parts and portions, I do not wish to be limited to this particular construction, combination and arrangement but desire to include in the scope of my invention the construction, combination and arrangement substantially as set forth in the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A shoulder-supported cradle structure for standard telephone hand sets, comprising a onepiece shoulder-engaging rest member having a substantially fiat cradle supporting portion, the
underside ofwhich is adapted to rest upon and extend crosswise with respect to the crest of the shoulder of a user, said flat portion terminating at one end in an integral, downwardly curved hook portion, adapted to embrace an area of a users shoulder adjacent the crest, a cradle member mounted on the upper face of said flat portion for receiving a telephone hand set, said cradle member having a, generally U-shaped seat in a plane substantially transverse to said fiat portion so that a standard hand set positioned in said seat will also extend generally crosswise with respect to the users shoulder, a line bisecting the angle between the legs of the U of said seat being at an inclination to the vertical and to the horizontal when said structure is in use, whereby the seat holds the hand set inclined upwardly and inwardly from the shoulder toward the head of the user with the ends of the hand set disposed respectively adjacent the users mouth and ear, and means for adjustably mounting said cradle member on said flat portion comprising a longitudinally extending guide trough in the upper face of said fiat portion, a projecting shoulder on said cradle member adapted to slidably engage said trough, a longitudinally extending slot in the base of said trough and an adjustable stud adapted to be inserted into said cradle through said slot for retaining said cradle in adjusted position with respect to said flat portion.

Freelance WorkHello freelancers,
I'm about to graduate from college and step out into the real world, so I wondering if you wily vets could tell me where/how you find the best freelance work. I know that it may seem like I'm trying to nudge in on your territory, but believe me, I'm not. I'm staying put for the summer, then moving, so I need to get in some work this summer to bolster my portfolio. I'm just trying to get a discussion going about this topic, since it probably pertains to a lot of you on the site.
I've seen the usual suspects from big sites like Heritage, but their payout seems ridiculously low for the amount of work put in, plus I've heard it's all about the bottom line, and they could care less about the design. So anyway, if you're got some contributions, let's hear 'em!
Thanks!Tags: None

Is freelancing really the smartest choice to start off your career just out of college? I would look for an in-house job first, then try your hand at freelancing after you've got some experience under your belt, and a bit of a name for yourself.Ned Yeung, A.C.E.
It's true that you can't build much of a portfolio while working in-house, but you also can't build a portfolio without a portfolio as a freelancer (as weird as that may sound). You'll get yourself stuck in a catch-22 situation, where nobody will hire you because you don't have the experience and you can't get the experience because nobody will hire you.
What I'm saying is that it takes a lot of work to build up a list of clientele when you're working for yourself, so unless you can afford to survive with no income for a while until you can build it through sweat and tears, then you're better off to get some experience under your belt first by working for somebody else.
If you try that route first and come up with nothing... Then it's true that Freelancing can create the work that doesn't exist for you. However, just know that you'll have to be prepared for a rough road while you try to build up a portfolio with nothing to show your worth.
Personally, that's the route that I took in my career, so I definitely can't say that it won't work out. I've been working full-time as an independent design contractor for over half a dozen years, and for all but the first year or so have had enough repeat clients and local exposure that I stopped advertising, marketing, or cold-calling for clients except for when I started. However, during that start it's all about drumming up work, and very little doing of billable work. Which means you won't have the cash flow to live on for a while until you've made a bit of a name for yourself.
It's just like Real Estate... Realtors pay thousands of dollars to get licensed, but the majority of them drop out by the end of the first year - because they have to go through that year with no income until they've built up some clientele, and most people can't do it.
Right now I almost feel like I'm starting all over again like this, because I've now decided that I want to reduce my design career to focus on my photography. But at least this time I've got design to cover my ventures and pay for my expensive photo equipment.Last edited by Ned; 05-20-2009, 04:36 AM.Ned Yeung, A.C.E.

For me, the most important thing is your network.
You must work hard every day trying to meet new people, and figure how you can make money from that people.
Once you have developed a decent network, you will have more clients, more partenrs, highter budgets for quality works, etc.
If you're trying to build up your portfolio, maybe you can try building some sites for friends or relatives to begin with. That won't pay much, if at all, but it's still a real job that you can say you worked on and it can go into your portfolio. That's what I'm doing anyway, for example I'm doing sites for my mother-in-law who is a fashion stylist, my riding school, and my niece's kindergarten.
join a local club and/or do work for non-profits. although non-profits can be a pain in the ass, they're good portfolio pieces and the people are usually pretty well connected. but other then that, look for an advertising/AIGA/or some type of club chapter in your local city. don't try to "network" to network, actually be interested and try to make friends. people can tell if you're being fake to find work. they need to remember you as someone they liked, not someone they can forget right after.
