Nano Research, 3 (10). pp. 714-721.
Official URL: http://www.springerlink.com/content/lj63r7x5847l47...
Flexible organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) using solution-processable functionalized graphene for all the electrodes (source, drain, and gate) have been fabricated for the first time. These OFETs show performance comparable to corresponding devices using Au electrodes as the source/drain electrodes on SiO2/Si substrates with Si as the gate electrode. Also, these devices demonstrate excellent flexibility without performance degradation over severe bending cycles. Furthermore, inverter circuits have been designed and fabricated using these all-graphene-electrode OFETs. Our results demonstrate that the long-sought dream for all-carbon and flexible electronics is now much closer to reality.

Giving birth to a premature or other high-risk baby (or babies) does not mean you cannot breastfeed. Actually, the opposite may be the case. There is even more reason to provide your own milk for, and eventually breastfeed, a premature or a sick newborn. Providing your milk for your baby lets you participate in your baby's healthcare in a very crucial way. Because the benefits of mother's milk are so important to the high-risk newborn, you are able to do something for your baby that no one else can. Many neonatologists and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) staff members strongly encourage mothers to provide their own milk for high-risk babies, even if those mothers do not intend to breastfeed later.
How your milk will be used by the NICU depends on the health status of your baby. Even babies who are not eating yet will benefit from breast milk. The nurses will use your milk to clean your baby's gums. This is called oral care. This introduces healthy bacteria into your baby's body. As your baby progresses, your milk will then be used to deliver calories through a tube or bottle. When it is appropriate, the NICU staff will help your baby breastfeed directly to get milk. As the mother of a high-risk newborn, you may have to overcome difficulties that a mother and full-term, healthy baby are unlikely to run into when learning to breastfeed. However, you and your baby will learn to breastfeed. It simply may take a bit more patience and persistence. How soon you and your baby can begin to breastfeed will depend on the maturity of your baby's brain and body systems. Although a baby's gestational age influences the development of stable body systems and the development of the reflexes needed for oral feedings, a baby's physical condition may also affect when direct breastfeeding can begin.
Until your baby is able to breastfeed, you can express your milk (remove milk from your breasts) to establish and maintain breast milk production. Milk expression also allows your high-risk baby to get the benefits of your milk as soon as his or her gastrointestinal tract is ready to handle gavage (tube) or oral (by mouth) feedings. Plan to continue to express your milk until you know your baby is able to get all needed nourishment directly from your breasts.

Colt McCoy
OK forgot to check my byes and both my QBs are on a bye. yeah. Here are my options.
1 Painter - Put in a waiver I figure vs NO they will at least be throwing the ball a lot very eary.
2 Kolb - Plays Pitts. err
3 McCoy - plays seattle. oh deal lord I am screwed this week.
I put out trades but no one is trading in this league so I'm pretty sure those are my only options.
Colt McCoy
Painter and McCoy
Painter has actually been a suprisingly decent fantasy qb. His team is always losing so he always has to throw and he has weapons.
Tebow and McCoy if you need two especially if the rest of your team is good
Definetly McCoy. Seattle has a good run D but cant defend the pass
Thanks for the help had to go with Painter. I like McCoy but he has not one viable WR IMO. Give Indy's core and yeah. I also think more of Seattles passing D then some of you. They are average but can run with the chumps Cle is fielding. Kam and Thomas may be one of the better S duos by the end of the year.
I am shocked no one tryed to see me on Kolb. BRJ I am rooting for Tebow but that is just too risky in his 1st game. I know Painter will give me at least 11 points so he is just the safe bet here. That is really all I'm expecting here my RBs can do the rest. I am starting Forte and Turner who are both giving top ten #s right now.
He hasn't even changed his lineup yet. If he does it will be close if not I should crush him. All he has is Romo, Graham, and Dez right now but does have Wells, Colston, and Mendi or Ingram on his bench. Not sure why he has Blount and Hightower as his starters. This guy always responds NO to trades quick but is 1-5 so may have already given up.
Charlie Whitehurst
OK Painter was not the right choice. The correct choice was Kolb so we all fail here. lol Ok the guys saying Tebow maybe but I just couldn't do it. He actually played bad but ran for 2 great plays to keep them into it.
I may actually loose this one because of this. The guy had NO D and Graham so he actually managed to get 10 points up on me with just my Balt D to go. Guess I need them to shut out Jax.

Im at 553 and wanting more but are there any cons of doing so? And pros? Will I continue to get more dodge by adding to my Def rating?

Im at 553 and wanting more but are there any cons of doing so? And pros? Will I continue to get more dodge by adding to my Def rating?
There is nothing wrong with getting more def than what is required for uncritable. However its not something to gem for if thats what you are wanting to do (unless you are trying to assemble an unhittable set).
Pros: Gain avoidance/mitigation
Cons: loose effective health
I am sure there are more pros and cons, but I am at work and dont really have the time to sit and think about all of them.
My suggestion is dont worry too much about geming for it but if you get an upgrade with more def on it dont be concerned that it has the extra, wont hurt anything. If you are wanting to assemble an unhittable set though I would suggest getting as much block gear as you can find and gem everything defense other than one or two gems to make your meta active.
http://www.tankspot.com/forums/f97/4...ar-glance.html (Here is a gear list with good suggestions on gear and gemming for each type of set)
*edited for link*
as a general rule after the d cap its not start to actively seek def over other stats. Right now I have anywhere from 587 to 601 def and have no gems and as few enchants with def as possible. yes that adds up to a small amount of avoidance but Its not worth sacrificing for straight avoidance gemming
I'm being nitpicky, but you don't actually lose effective health with more defense, you just *may* be using resources for defense instead of effective health.
If you are over the uncrittable point, and don't have any defense gems or enchants, there's nothing to worry about whatsoever, it's just a nice bonus.
Thanks for the info. The reason I was asking is because I guess you could say Im trying to get, as Stalswarrior put it, a "unhittable" set, or close to it as possible. Im a DK that spec'd unholy with boneshield and for me (remember I said me =D ) it has worked out well in terms of grabbing, holding aggro, taking less damage.
I've grabbed JC so I can get the red +34 Dodge gems, blue +51 stam , and the yellow +34 Def gems.
So I guess with that, would an unhittable set be possible, worth it? Is it true when ppl say that an unhittable toon may grab less aggro? I would think just the opposite, you know, that would really piss the mob/boss off. lol
I'll look the forums when time permits, but any ideas on the caps to have an unhittable toon, if possible.
Afaik, due to the Diminishing Returns on Parry/Dodge/Miss, unhittable is not something a DK can achieve with current gear.
The only classes I know that have succesfully attained unhittability are Warriors & Paladins because Block Chance has no DR. Although this is ofcourse not a genuine unhittability as they can still get hit, but never for the full amount.
Yeah I am pretty sure DKs can not reach uncrittable because they don't have block to add to the equation. And for all bosses besides Saurfang and Gunship Captain with your Jewel Crafting gems it's worth just going 3 51 stamina gems. Trying to reach unhittable for a DK would mean only avoidance and if you aren't on the two fights I listed above it isn't going to be ideal compared to EH or N-EH.
I will use Gormok as an example, he will kill you with a melee, Impale, bleed combo, the only attack avoidable is the melee, by stacking avoidance you are relying on RNG too much in that situation. Say you trade off quite a bit of EH for avoidance in that situation, when the melee hits which will happen eventually you will get insta-gimped by the Impale Bleed Combo. But defense is always helpful I just wouldn't trade EH for defense for the majority of encounters.
It is very bad to have too much def. A few points over isnt bad, but never gem for it and if you take too much heavy def gear you are sacrificing other stats that will give you more effective health.
Too much def. i.e. > 575 is an opportunity cost that is not worth paying.
You aren't always paying any opportunity cost to get that extra defense. Sometimes it simply comes on the upgrades that drop for you (or are available via crafting/badges).
Defense is sort of like Hit. There's this generally accepted cap, after which it becomes significantly less valuable than it was before (going from absolutely necessary to almost hardly useful). There is another, harder cap, after which it pretty much becomes worthless, but the chances of you even coming close to that cap without putting all of your effort into maximizing your defense value is slim to none.
Thus extra defense does not hurt, it still has value after the cap and you shouldn't feel like you have to shed it. That said, as many of the bigger names have mentioned thus far. Take a look at your enchants and gems, do you have any defense ones that you used before you had such a nice padding of defense? They can be replaced now. You may come back to using them again later, but for now, if you truly want to eek out as much value as possible, then yes, it would be more beneficial to replace those defense points with other stats. But having extra defense isn't bad. It isn't going to hurt you, it's not a complete waste of a stat.
Well, defense is not exactly like hit. Hit has a hard cap, defense does not. =)
For those who don't know that terminology, a "hard" cap is when the points will have absolutely no effect when more are added. It is possible to be incapable of missing at which point Hit rating will add zero value.
Defense rating will *always* add value, but after you pass the "cap" where you cease to be crittable, it only adds avoidance.
What's more, to consider for DKs, even after we cease to get crit reduction from it, we still buff our IBF effectiveness with it. I don't take that as a reason to focus on pumping up your defense, but it sure doesn't hurt.
(and sadly, no, DKs cannot reach the unhittable point passively, probably not even with procs/CDs)
Well, I take that back then. I simply remember talking to you about a point at which miss chance becomes severely diminished. But, then again, defense will still give dodge and parry and would still give miss. The value would just be lessened even more. I suppose hard cap was a terrible choice to use for that.
However the likening of hit (mostly for DPS) and defense (for tanks) as far as the soft cap goes, is still apt!
As said, there's nothing inherently bad or any waste on getting more defense.
There's an ideal ratio between the avoidance stats that you can use as a guideline when you can choose what stat to add to your gear, I think it's 2,1 dodge per 1.8 defense per 1 parry?
Attaining the ideal ratio is practically impossible, so don't go out of your way, but when you can pick wich stat to add, you can look at that ratio and say "hum, I'll get the most from defense instead of dodge here"
Ok, more Def after the crit cap isnt bad because it adds to our avoidance, I'll never prob be unhittable because of diminishing returns. So if I leave my Def rating at/around 551 (sorry, not 553 like previous thought) and with my parry rating around 18% and dodge around 25/26% unbuffed, how much higher (gems/enchants) before they're capped and of no use to obtain more of?
Thanks for all the valuable info, its been useful to me and I hope to pick the brains of you great players again in the future! Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays!
There is a "hard cap" for avoidance but you will never hit it making it irrelevant, it is always useful but its usefulness decays over time through diminishing returns. Honestly though I wouldn't worry about your avoidance too much and focus mainly on N-EH, enough avoidance will come with gear.
I disagree here, infact its very difficult to keep your defense score actively 'low' and floating around the 540 cap.Quote:
It is very bad to have too much def. A few points over isnt bad, but never gem for it and if you take too much heavy def gear you are sacrificing other stats that will give you more effective health.
Too much def. i.e. > 575 is an opportunity cost that is not worth paying
There's no real reason not to have as much defense over 540 passively THROUGH GEAR ALONE and not by gemming or enchanting for it; generally higher level gear has higher defense from itemization. You can't avoid it tbh and alot of BIS items have high defense.
A better piece of advice would be:
If you are <540 gem for defense.
If you are == 540 or >540 gem other stats such as stam and avoidance.
Job done.
To be nitpicky, as Satorri says, there are indeed hardcaps on avoidances.
With that said,
As others have said, there are better things to gem/enchant for than defense after 540. It's not "bad" per se, but there are better uses of those itemisation points for the most part.

Editor's note: We asked Ivy Manning — whose new book, The Adaptable Feast, tackles the challenges of feeding vegetarians and omnivores at the same table — to give us some ideas for adaptable dinner parties. Just in time for holiday entertaining, here's Ivy.
Dinner parties are a great time for everyone, including those of us who like to cook. That is, until one of your guests announces that he's a vegetarian, or a vegan. Suddenly, your best-laid menu plans have ice water thrown on them. Should you make a separate tofu thingy for the veg folks, or just feed them starchy side dishes and hope they don't say anything?
The solution doesn't have to involve making a separate (and often disparate) meal for your vegetarian or vegan guests, or shortchanging them with a plate full of pilaf.
I should know; I'm a cookbook author who married a vegetarian. After a few years of marriage cooking many separate meals, I've sorted out a way to cook satisfying meals that feed both vegetarians/vegans and omnivores.
Take the eight dinner party dishes listed here. You simply make a base recipe, separate some of it out, and keep it vegetarian. Sometimes you can add a vegetable-based protein, like tofu or seitan. Finish the rest of the dish as you would normally, adding sustainably raised meat or seafood. Et voilà! You have an excellent meal for everyone.
Ivy Manning is a cookbook author and food writer in Portland, Oregon. Her new book, The Adaptable Feast, featuring photography by Gregor Torrence, has recently been published by Sasquatch Books. For more of Ivy's recipes, check out her blog, Ivy's Feast.
Related recipe: Shepherd's Pie; recipe: French Onion Soup; recipe: Grilled Caesar Salads with Anchovies or Not
These recipes sound yummy. I will be making the Grilled Ceasar Salad today. Grilling romaine, easy and delicous, is especially nice on a cold day. The tomotao fennel soup would also be great when ice and snow are in the forecast. Thanks for sharing.

Mmmm, the butternut squash + kale pasta sounds perfect, with or without the chorizo. Great pairing.

text: After many phonecalls, talking to our B&B and listening to concerns about the April 21 meeting, I have decided to reserve the building at Andrews Park from 7 - 9 pm. This decision addresses all of the concerns about weather, drive time, lighting and newcomers being able to locate us since we won't be at the library for this meeting. Please bring a folding chair with you to the meeting, if you can. There are only 45 chairs provided inside the building. That way, if we have a large turnout at the meeting, we can have extra chairs to go around. If you have any further comments and/or concerns, please contact me off-list. I appreciate everyone's input. The address to Andrews Park is 201 West Daws, Norman, OK, 73069. The park is located just north (across the street) of the Norman Library's parking lot.

BISMARCK, N.D. - Gov. Jack Dalrymple today joined Bobcat Company President Rich Goldsbury, Bobcat employees and public officials to celebrate the completion of the company's $28 million Acceleration Center. Located in Bismarck's Northern Plains Commerce Centre, the Acceleration Center will serve as a key engineering facility for Bobcat and its parent company, Doosan.
"Bobcat is a great North Dakota success story and this Acceleration Center further positions Bobcat for even greater things to come," Dalrymple said. "The state-of-the-art Acceleration Center will serve to keep Bobcat at the forefront of innovation while supporting local jobs and creating economic opportunities for our state."
Bobcat's Acceleration Center will support 175 employees tasked with initial design, engineering, prototype manufacturing, computer simulation and product testing. The center's research and development teams will advance product innovation for Bobcat compact equipment and some Doosan heavy equipment to benefit customers worldwide.
Bobcat broke ground on the Acceleration Center in May 2013. The project involved expanding Bobcat's existing building to include laboratory and office space, classrooms and product testing and demonstration areas. The Acceleration Center is a two-story facility that encompasses 190,000 square feet. Employees also have 22 acres for outside testing and product development. In addition to the Acceleration Center, Bobcat also operates an attachments production facility in Bismarck. In all, West Fargo-based Bobcat Co. employs about 2,000 people in North Dakota.
Among those who joined Dalrymple and Goldsbury at the center's dedication were Sen. John Hoeven, Rep. Kevin Cramer, Bismarck Mayor Mike Seminary and Bobcat employees. The dedication follows a recent production milestone at Bobcat. On July 12, employees celebrated as Bobcat's one millionth loader rolled off an assembly line at the company's Gwinner, N.D., manufacturing plant. Bobcat is a worldwide leader in the manufacturing and distribution of compact equipment including skid steer loaders, track loaders and compact excavators.

Research & Clinical Interests
Dr. Bray's laboratory studies the role of platelets in cardiovascular disease, and disorders of bleeding and excessive blood clotting. His major areas of investigation include: (1) The role of platelets in arterial thrombosis, with the identification and functional characterization of platelet risk factors and their impact on cardiovascular therapy. He studies how genetic variations in platelet adhesive molecules affect both the clinical and platelet phenotypes. (2) Identification of novel genes and gene products involved in platelet reactivity using genome scan and platelet RNA expression array approaches. (3) Studies on gender differences and hormonal effects on platelet function and thrombosis. (4) Pharmacogenetic studies: a) testing for interactions between candidate genes and hormone therapy using DNA samples from the participants in the Women's Health Initiative, and b) candidate gene and genome-wide scan approaches for determining genes that regulate the platelet response to aspirin.

This tour was amazing!
Absolutely magnificent our guide was extremely knowledgably and made the entire journey a memorable journey back through time. .
Great trip, punctual, informative, enjoyable and memorable.
Excellent guide and well-planned day! A MUST-SEE!!
I'll keep it Short and Sweet...... It was AMAZING!!! Our tour guide was the best. Always a pleasure booking with Viator!
Great tour and our Guide was a lovely guy with excellent knowledge. Highly Recmmended!!!!
Was very informative. Amir our tourguide was absolutely wonderful. He knows so many things! It's quite a long day, start 07;15 a.m. and we arrived in the hotel after 08:00 p.m. Put we have seen a lot and had also fun in the dead sea.
Excellent tour which gives an insight to the history of Israel - guide was very good and helpful giving lots of info throughout the day. Breathtaking senary at Masada and the Dead Sea - we had plenty of time at both locations - would defo recommend
This tour was very informative and interesting. There was ALOT to see and to take in, so like all tours, you need to keep your ears and eyes open to enjoy everything but it was extremely fascinating to see the ruins of King Herod's fortress and to see how the land was lived in centuries ago, and to see how nomads, slaves and kings lived together and apart at the same time. First we travelled through the Valley of the River Jordan, going past the Qumran -the caves of the dead sea scrolls, although we did not go inside. Still in the coach we travelled through En Gedi - a nature reserve, to see the nomadic ways of life, still being followed today. After king Herod's fortress we got a quick chance to relax of the coach down to the dead sea, where you can change into your swimsuit, beautify yourself with mud and relax your weary feet in the salty water. we all managed to master the art if floating! "Isaac" (real name Zahi Shaked) and "Eve", the tour guides were very friendly and approachable, distilling the history and culture of the sites very well to a group of people from many different countries. The coach was air conditioned and large too! Very grateful for their organisation and help, could not have seen or enjoyed it as much!
Everything took place as planned, we were picked up on time, arrived at our destinations as promised, buses were clean and comfortable . We very much enjoyed being with Chaya, our guide, who who was knowledgable, professional and had a good sense of humor.
The tour leader, Amir, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about Masada and the Dead Sea, as well as Israel in general. He was very articulate and encouraged questions. This tour was a very good experience.
This is probably my favorite part of my Israel trip, Dead sea and Masada were truly breathtaking.
Our guide Yoav was super nice and helpful all the way as well as being humorous too!
Would definitely recommend to my friends when they come to Israel!
Very pleasant experience. Great guide who shared with us lots of stories. Comfortable bus, will recommend this excursion to everyone
great tour. really long but a lot of fun and saw a lot of israel and learned a lot. our tour guide emir was amazing and very funny.
Best tour, quite impressive both the Massada and the feeling of floating on the Dead See. The shopping at Ahava cosmetics factory could have been skipped as it is extreamly expensive (though some fellow tourists did shop).Wish we could have spent the time at the Dead See.

Turns out the IRS manager who initiated the alleged targeting of conservative groups is a conservative Republican. Virginia Republican Lt. Governor nominee E.W.

In a Washington Times column today, Concerned Women for America's Janice Shaw Crouse repeats her frequent claim that progressive social policies are to blame for what she once called "realities that are evident should one take a risky drive into certain neighborhoods of our cities."

The anti-choice movement has for several years been experiencing a quiet rift over extreme state-level measures would ban all abortions – and in some cases, in vitro fertilization and some forms of birth control – in a head-on challenge to Roe v. Wade. As Personhood USA and Janet Porter gain more and more success in pushing "personhood" and "heartbeat" bills at the state level, national pro-life groups who oppose the laws for strategic reasons find themselves in a bind. In March, when North Dakota passed a "heartbeat" bill which would ban... MORE >

Concerned Women for America's Janice Shaw Crouse is very concerned about a new Census Bureau report finding a spike in births to unmarried mothers. In an American Thinker column today, Crouse accuses "liberals, progressives, feminists and welfare advocates" of responding to "problems associated by the triad of out-of-wedlock childbearing, single motherhood, and child poverty" by promoting "abortion and increased welfare dependency." The failure of these policies, she claims, "is obvious to anyone who will face the realities that are evident... MORE >

The Religious Right's anti-anti-bullying efforts are beginning to swing into high gear as the Day of Silence, which is run by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and centers on making schools safer for LGBT students, approaches on April 19. Mission America's Linda Harvey in her radio bulletin today once again criticized the day of action and called on families to keep their kids away from school that day.

Concerned Women for America's Chelsen Vicari in a blog post yesterday attacked Starbucks for supporting marriage equality, which she argues will open the door to anti-straight discrimination. Vicari called Starbucks CEO and gay rights supporter Howard Schultz "prejudicial and bigoted" for telling Thomas Strobhar of the Corporate Morality Action Center that he should sell his shares in the company if he is so distraught over Starbucks' endorsement of same-sex marriage legislation in Washington state.

Which of these 3 is better for adding mass to the back?
Which of these 3 is better for adding mass to the back?
I am thinking dumbell rows or chest supported rows. Though I can't say close grip pullups are bad. I do both a row and a pullup in routine. (In about 10 minutes too)
Why pick just one?
Vin Diesel has a fever.. and the only prescription is more cowbell.

galileo: hate
assgrabbers are never subtile, they will grabb ass whereever they go,public or not, I know the type, because I am one. - Rock
Out of all 3 I would definitely go with chest-supported rows, without question. But personally I had really liked supported rows a lot. Far more than DB rows especially.
in my experiance, i prefer db rows, they seem to thicken my back up big time.
weight: 155?
height: 5'9"
benchpress: 275x1
military press: 160x1
deadlift: 405x1
anyone have a link to a chst supported row? i cant seem to find a pic of one

Don't have a pic. But its kind of like doing bent rows at 45. Except the weight isn't going up and down, it arcs from a pivot point. The one I used had a narrower grip then I do bent rows. I like bent over rows, but eventually I want to either do db rows or supported rows for my lower back.
Edit- Know that I think about it, tis probably more like a T-bar row. Similar angle, weight moving in an arc.
Last edited by Berserker; 03-25-2003 at 09:50 AM.
Here is a good picture of the EXACT supported row that I use. I vary between underhand and parallel-grip rows. Really blasts the hell outta my lats. Talk about a great back exercise.

Book Description:Blaise Pascal's construction of his mathematical triangle provided the device to extend the application of a differential calculus. By tracing the affinities between the scientific and literary writing of Pascal, this work isolates the figure of man's fear of divine abandonment as the key formal relation between the differential calculus and literary fiction. Through its ability to describe the concept of force, the calculus permits a reading of abandonment as the trace of the force of desire. Thus the calculus offers a dynamic to the spatial disposition of psychological tension in the fiction of Lafayette, Crebillon, Rousseau, Laclos, and Sade.

- Victim Awareness- Conducted by facility staff, focusing on alterning the youth's thinking and beliefs about the human effects of criminal behavior and assuming responsibility for their behavior. Classes are designed to increase awareness on the emotional, psychological, and financial burdens their victims have suffered. Furthermore, this increases awareness regarding the impact of the crime and focus to alter thinking and beliefs about consequences to move from thinking about crime indifferently to engaging feelings about and the impact of crime.
- Music Appreciation- Youth are assigned an MP3 player with appropriate music from Facility Staff. After listening to the selections, youth write an essay describing what they did or did not appreciate.
Currently, Lassen County has contracts with Plumas and Modoc Counties to detain youth from their jurisdictions. The current rate is $110.00 per day for youth pending disposition and $85.00 a day for a youth committed to the facility.
Work in Progress
Lassen County Probation and the Lassen County Behavioral Health Department are exploring options of a Regional Treatment Facility. The Program would be for youth who are currently on probation and need mental health and drug and alcohol services in a more structured type of program. Currently, options regarding funding and staffing the facility are being looked into.
The Juvenile Detention facility is currently researching the possibility of opening a Juvenile Camp. The camp program would be focused on education and treatment, either in the facility or in the community by utilizing community and facility services.
The Lassen County Juvenile Detention Facility follows the guidelines set up in the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (PREA). For information about PREA please contact this facility or the PREA Resource Center at http://www.prearesourcecenter.org.
The information below is provided to youth that are of age to vote or wish to sign up for Selective Service.
On Probation? Off Parole? Off Any Other Community Supervision?
You have the right to vote.
There is a lot of confusion in California about the impact of a criminal conviction on voting rights. We have created this website to set the record straight. In California, some criminal convictions have no impact on your voting rights at all. Other kinds of convictions may temporarily take away your right to vote. The only time you are not eligible to vote is when you have: 1) a felony conviction and you are still in state prison or serving your sentence in county jail under Realignment; or 2) when you are on parole, on post-release community supervision, or on mandatory supervision. If you are on probation or if you have completed your parole, post-release community supervision, or mandatory supervision you CAN vote!
For more information about your right to vote go on line at:
Selective Service

There's more to Detroit's Guilty Simpson than a hilarious moniker (modified from the original "Guilt," and using his real last name) or an association with two of rap's great producers, Madlib and the late J Dilla. Guilty's 2006 song "Clap Your Hands" showed what Dilla saw in him: a tough, sonorous voice blunt and clipped enough to rival any beat thrown at him, with an unvarnished poetic streak in lines such as "it's a fact, when you're black, that you don't know how to act when your belly button's touching your back." Last year's O.J. Simpson (the initials referring to Madlib's name, Otis Jackson) was hood rap at its most iconoclastic, while a collaboration with Black Milk and Sean Price is forthcoming. With Muja Messiah & DJ Turtleneck, Mally, and So Gold. 18+. (Photo by Jeremy Deputat)

TOP STORY, June: Roundabouts increase time
Date: December 29, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Throughout the holiday week, YourObserver.com will be counting down the top 12 stories of 2009 (one from each month) from our Longboat, East County and Sarasota Observers. Check back each day fro a reprinting — and any relevant updates — of the biggest news items of the year.
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED June 18, 2009
Roundabouts would improve intersections along U.S. 41, but would actually slightly increase travel time from the barrier islands. Those were the findings of a connectivity study presented to city commissioners June 16.
The connectivity plan would create five roundabouts on U.S. 41, slow the speed limit from 45 mph to 35 mph and install wider, landscaped medians.
The city's connectivity consultant, Trans Associates, created an animated simulation that showed cars moving through five proposed roundabouts along the bayfront.
The computer-generated simulation demonstrated how vehicles would flow smoothly through the roundabouts, instead of stacking up at traffic lights.
Trans Associates also conducted a time trial from U.S. 41 and Osprey Avenue to Longboat Key Town Hall and back. The results showed roundabouts would make the trip to Longboat Key about 10 seconds longer and the trip back to Osprey Avenue about one minute longer.
Jason Collins, Trans Associates senior manager, said the time difference is the result of a lower speed limit on U.S. 41.
City planner Steve Stancel presented an implementation schedule in two phases. Phase A would take up to three years and would consist mainly of design work. Phase B would take up to 20 years to complete and includes most of the construction work.
Phase A's estimated cost is $2.2 million. Phase B is expected to cost $35.6 million.
Commissioner Kelly Kirschner suggested instead of spending three years just designing several connectivity features, it might be better to use that time to create one roundabout at U.S. 41 and 10th Street and see how drivers like it.
The commission will have the chance to discuss changes to the proposal when they hold a connectivity public hearing within the next couple of months.
Contact Robin Roy at firstname.lastname@example.com.
UPDATE: The City Commission approved the construction of two test roundabouts at U.S. 41 and 10th Street and U.S. 41 and 14th Street to get people used to roundabouts before considering whether to implement the entire connectivity plan.

Colorado Camping and a Good Mountain Climb

Friday, July 13, 2012
I would like to take the time to say that my trip was amazing and would also like to share a few of the pictures here! We drove in to Colorado on Saturday and set up camp at a beautiful site--tent and all. The temperature was a good 40 lower than what we left behind in Texas and that was excellent! The nights were a little rough just because it was rainy 3 of the 4 nights we were there, and that makes for a cold night. It probably wouldn't have been so bad, but each of us were slightly under the weather going into it. The first day, Sunday, we explored around the camps at the various lakes; there was lots of climbing, hiking, maneuvering for 5 hours just around the camp where we stayed, but the sights were incredible! I was able to capture some amazing pictures!
On Monday, we decided to hike up a mountain. I gotta admit--I WAS SCARED!!! I don't know what scared me more...Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! OR...Am I going to be able to make this? With my feet, and the extra weight, and the never-ending clumsiness, and the fact that I'm not a perfect athlete with bulging muscles. How can I, someone who couldn't walk up one flight of stairs 7 months ago without getting winded, make it 3.5 miles UP?! Much less the 3.5 miles back DOWN after making the exhausting climb UP! My palms were sweating, and my stomach was rolling. Just standing there, looking at the road ahead of me was overwhelming. But, the love of my life encouraged me and told me that he believed I could do this. So, with him by my side and my two amazingly inspiring dogs, we began the hike up mountain. It seemed like it was never going to end, and my legs were burning, and I discovered muscles I never knew I had, and my whole body was drenching in sweat, despite the cold mountain air. And suddenly, after being shrouded in the shade of trees for so long, we came to the most lovely sight I have ever seen in my life. The fog was thick, but it quickly moved and the sun shone on a mountain nearby that I was level with. What I mean is, I was staring in the face of a mountain...not just looking up at one! And we weren't even done yet!!! The view was glorious, memorable, breathtaking.
After stopping to take pictures, we continued on because we still had to make it to the top and back down before dark. Once we made it to the top, I remember having the strangest emotions overcome me. First, I CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN!!! Secondly, however, I felt so close to God! To be in a place that is so untouched by man, is truly remarkable! Everything looks pristine and glamorous! And, the fog was so heavy and bright, it seemed as if we were in a different realm. It was the strangest feeling I have ever had.
The trip down seemed a TON easier except that my feet did go numb.
And then clumsiness kicked in and I took a nice little fall knee--->rock sudden impact!
But, thankfully, all I got out of that was a scrape, a bruise and a little stiffness for a couple of days. I STILL CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN!!!
Our last day, we took it a little easier, though we were still hiking the better part of the day. We took our dogs to the lake and they thoroughly enjoyed that! The last day was beautiful weather and we didn't have to take cover from the rain one time! On Wednesday morning, when we packed up camp, I was saddened to leave such beauty, but left feeling more motivation than I have felt in a long time! When I reflected on my feelings of work-out dread, I kept thinking of how many things are possible and that I don't have to be a skinny athlete to accomplish great things! I'm so excited about these wonderful life changes!
