Summerdale is located in southern Baldwin County in the southwest corner of the state. It has a mayor/city council form of government.
The town was named in 1904 after its founder, Eli Summer, who hoped to establish a tobacco farm in the area. A post office was established in 1905. The tobacco farm failed, but other enterprises fared better, including a turpentine distillery and a canning factory. A group of Mennonites settled in Summerdale in 1917 but did not remain. The town incorporated in January 1929.

The ADT7420 is a high accuracy digital temperature sensor offering breakthrough performance over a wide industrial range, housed in a 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP package. It contains an internal band gap reference, a temperature sensor, and a 16-bit ADC to monitor and digitize the temperature to 0.0078°C resolution. The ADC resolution, by default, is set to 13 bits (0.0625°C). The ADC resolution is a user programmable mode that can be changed through the serial interface.
The ADT7420 is guaranteed to operate over supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operating at 3.3 V, the average supply current is typi-cally 210 μA. The ADT7420 has a shutdown mode that powers down the device and offers a shutdown current of typically 2.0 μA at 3.3 V. The ADT7420 is rated for operation over the −40°C to +150°C temperature range.
Pin A0 and Pin A1 are available for address selection, giving the ADT7420 four possible I2C addresses. The CT pin is an open-drain output that becomes active when the temperature exceeds a programmable critical temperature limit. The INT pin is also an open-drain output that becomes active when the tempera-ture exceeds a programmable limit. The INT pin and CT pin can operate in comparator and interrupt event modes.PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

Screenshots of PlayBook OS 2.0 Leaked – Email, BBM & more!
There has been rumors of the PlayBook getting a pretty big software update this fall. A chinese site, MAXPDA has posted pictures of what appears to be a BlackBerry PlayBook running Tablet OS 22.214.171.12492. This OS update is said to be the one that we are all waiting for, it will include native apps like email, contact, calendar, and BBM, plus include the Android Player built-in. My hope is that with this major update we also see BBM Music included somewhere in there.
From the looks of the screenshots we will see dedicated apps for mail, contacts, and calendar, BUT it doesn't appear these run with BIS or BES. The mail app appears to have full support for Exchange, IMAP, and POP, which is really curious for a BlackBerry product. It also seems like we might see full Twitter and LinkedIn integration in the PlayBook with this OS update. If these screenshots are in fact real, you can see this PlayBook is running Tablet OS 188.8.131.5292, which means RIM is pretty far along with its development.

Better Printing Through Chemistry
Advances in Wide format Media
by Thomas Franklin
Part 1 of 4
In the 1930s DuPont boasted of the life-enhancing benefits of chemistry with its "better living through chemistry" slogan. The company later dropped the overtly chemical pitch, referring instead to science, but the truth still holds in life as in digital printing. Chemistry continues to evolve, and with it, the capabilities of wide format print media.
There are dozens of varieties of print media for an expanding list of digital printing applications. Media manufacturers say the race is on to find ever more exotic materials to push digital printing into new markets and novel applications, particularly for solvent printers. Indeed, some of the more significant changes in the market have occurred in relation to media for solvent printers.
"Solvent has been the driving force for us," says Eric Tischer, director of sales, Neschen Americas. As more companies embrace solvent printers, media vendors have raced to expand their selection of compatible media.
"Hardware drives our business," observes Dan Halkyard, director of marketing, Oce North America.
"I don't think I've ever witnessed as much change in product assortment as in 2006, and that goes for any photo or imaging business I've been a part of in the past 30 years," states Philip Hursh, president, Sihl USA.
Part of what's driving the change, vendors say, is an attempt to provide solvent printers with the range of media, and thus range of applications, currently available for aqueous machines.
Much of the vinyl banner market has become commoditized, notes Ed McCarron, director of marketing, InteliCoat. "People are struggling to get margins there, so they're looking for new applications for their solvent printers." McCarron adds that duplicating aqueous' success with fine art on canvas and POP on backlit films in solvent media is a focus for the company. "It will let the printer produce lower volumes, but higher margins."
"I have the chance to visit a lot of print service providers—the profitable ones are those that have expanded their business beyond, for lack of a better word, commodity applications," Hursh says. "They add to their bottom line by producing higher-value applications as an add-on to the job that crossed their order desk as a request for a few simple posters or banners."
Of course, improving existing applications continues to be a focus as well.
"We're looking to improve our adhesives. We're adding super aggressive adhesives" to let graphics adhere to concrete walls, states Gabriel Maxwell, director of marketing, Arlon Graphic Films. "We're also improving the heat resistance of our films" so they can be applied to motorcycles or other surfaces that get hot and/or dirty.
Maxwell adds that within the growing market for vehicle wraps, Arlon is developing media for shorter-term installations. "It can be applied easily and removed quickly," he says.
"Digital technology initiated a shift to short run, short term graphics," observes Tom Black, marketing operations manager, 3M. "Now, we're in the midst of another shift to make digital a medium for longer term applications." As the shift is underway, marketing claims can frequently outpace real-world performance, Black cautions.
"We think a lot of the claims being made today [regarding longevity] are not accurate," Black notes. "Brand owners cannot tolerate their identity looking any different than it's supposed to. If prints fade, it's the print providers who will ultimately get burned."
Longevity is also an issue on the aqueous side, as inkjet media such as canvas designed for fine art applications have been emphasizing longer light fastness and better resistance to ozone, moisture, and other indoor irritants. Suppliers have poured R&D dollars into new coatings and chemistry for long-term indoor applications.
BF Inkjet is finalizing a fire-resistant canvas aimed at the commercial market and museum applications where code and regulations require fire retardancy and flammability ratings, states Max Bowers, owner, BF Inkjet. The company has also developed a line of canvas for solvent printers for outdoor applications, he adds.
There have also been advances in fabric printing, says Regan Dickinson, marketing communications specialist, LexJet. The company has been expanding its line of uncoated polyester fabrics, flag, spandex and suede material to support the recently introduced TexPress DSS-1800, which aims to reproduce the quality of a dye sublimation process in a single step.
One new media development is thriving not by creating new applications, but bringing a new sensibility to the existing sign and banner business. Biodegradable PVC media entices those who want an environmentally friendly and sustainable approach to printing, says Lorna D'Alessio, president, Ultraflex Systems, Inc. The greening of the printing industry has been accelerated by environmental regulations in the European Union (EU), specifically regulations concerning the use of PVC, but will spread into other regions, D'Alessio predicts.
This year, prints displayed at the Academy Awards will be output using Ultraflex's BioFlex biodegradable material and Nike has embraced it as well, according to D'Alessio. Other brands such as Wal-Mart and McDonalds have also expressed interest, she says.
For now, biodegradable media is more expensive because the EU mandates certain compounds be used in its manufacture but Ultraflex will begin to produce biodegradable media in other facilities where it can swap-in generic additives to achieve the same effect at lower costs, D'Alessio says. "Our goal is to make this less expensive—we've been really blown away by the interest in this," she adds.

Pulpdent Corporation introduces Embrace Varnish, 5% sodium fluoride with CXP, a new generation of fluoride varnishes. By incorporating xylitol coated calcium and phosphate in a permeable resin matrix that does not separate and requires no mixing, Pulpdent has developed a sustained, time-release bioactive varnish with predictable, uniform dosage that delivers 10 times more fluoride than leading varnish brands.
Embrace Varnish releases bioavailable calcium and phosphate ions, the essential building blocks of teeth. The xylitol coating prevents the calcium and phosphate salts from reacting until they come in contact with saliva. Saliva dissolves the xylitol and releases the calcium and phosphate ions, which react continuously in saliva with fluoride ions to form protective fluorapatite on the teeth.
Pulpdent Corporation is a family owned business that has served the dental profession with exceptional products since 1947. The company is fully integrated under one roof in Watertown, Massachusetts, where we operate a sophisticated chemical production laboratory and an automated machine shop along with R&D, testing, assembly, inspection, packaging, shipping, regulatory and accounting functions. To facilitate processing raw materials into finished goods, Pulpdent has developed complex systems and controls to ensure quality and customer satisfaction.
Innovation has always been the hallmark of Pulpdent. From its early contributions to vital pulp therapy and root canal therapy to its recent technological developments in hydrophilic, self-adhesive restorative resins that behave favorably in the moist oral environment and take advantage of the moisture that is ever-present in the mouth, Pulpdent has forged new directions in dental materials and oral healthcare. These accomplishments secure Pulpdent's future in the international market and position Pulpdent to serve the dental profession worldwide. As a highly specialized research, development and manufacturing company dedicated to providing quality products and services to its customers, Pulpdent is pleased to celebrate its 60th year with a renewed commitment to excellence.

What is Holy Basil? (Ocimum sanctum)
Holy Basil, also known as Tulsi, is one of the most highly regarded plants in Ayurvedic medicine, the traditional healing system of India. It has been used for thousands of years to help manage an array of conditions including joint inflammation, digestive complaints, respiratory problems, and skin conditions. In the west, Tulsi is most well known as an adaptogen for its ability to counteract stress, calm the mind, and lift the spirit.
Research shows that Holy Basil helps regulate stress-induced changes in production of hormones and neurotransmitters including cortisol, adrenalin, and dopamine, making it of benefit for stress-related conditions such as anxiety, nervousness, low mood, adrenal fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, digestive disorders, insomnia, or chronic immune deficiency. Holy Basil encourages mental and emotional wellbeing by strengthening the nervous system and improving neurotransmitter production and function.
Holy Basil has also been found in numerous studies to have blood sugar-modulating effects, which may make it helpful for those with blood sugar balance issues or insulin resistance. One study reported a significant decrease in fasting blood glucose levels when treated with Holy Basil as compared to placebo. Total serum cholesterol levels were also reduced. Another study found that Holy Basil stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas; in addition, Holy Basil decreases the stress hormone, cortisol. Elevated cortisol levels trigger the body to produce more glucose, causing an increase in blood sugar levels.
Holy Basil contains numerous polyphenols (antioxidants) that fight free radicals and help protect cells against oxidative damage. These compounds have also been shown to inhibit the COX-2 enzymes that promote inflammation; a study published in Phytomedicine that measured the activity of Holy Basil's phenolic compounds, found that their COX-2 inhibitory activity was comparable to many conventional anti-inflammatory medications. Holy Basil helps provide relief for joint and muscle inflammation caused by joint degeneration, tendonitis, bursitis, sports injury, or physical overactivity.
What is Holy Basil used for?
- Adrenal support - helps regulate stress response including cortisol, adrenaline
- Supports nervous system
- Anti-inflammatory
- Antioxidant support
- May help maintain healthy blood sugar balance

The truck climbing lane contract, valued at $74,213,533.63 was awarded to W. C. English Inc. of Lynchburg. The project is located on the northbound lanes of I-81 from mile marker 195.6 to 202.5 in the Fairfield area, which is north of Lexington. The 6.97 mile-long project will add a truck-climbing lane in this location, replace the bridges and construct retaining walls at Route 716, Route 712 and Route 710, improve existing left and right shoulders, plus update guardrails, guardrail transitions and end treatments to meet current Federal Highway standards.
This project is in line with a resolution passed by the CTB in October 2006 that directed VDOT to implement a program of safety improvements to I-81, including construction of truck climbing lanes. About a dozen locations along steep grades on I-81 have been identified where climbing lanes would improve traffic flow and safety, with the Rockbridge location being a top priority for construction.
In 2009 the average traffic volume on I-81 in this area was 45,500 vehicles per day. The average traffic volume is projected to increase to 68,650 vehicles per day by the year 2029.
Completion of the project will enhance the safety of I-81 in this area by allowing slower moving vehicles to stay in the right two-lanes. Other benefits of the project include better traffic management with wider shoulders plus the use of the additional travel lane during traffic incidents.
Randy Kiser, VDOT Staunton District construction engineer said, "This particular northbound segment was chosen because it has one of the longest and steepest uphill grades, higher than average crashes compared to other uphill grades, and low operating speeds for trucks within the VDOT Staunton District. Truck climbing lane locations were identified in accordance with American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) criteria during the corridor study conducted in the late 1990s."
Current funding for this project in the Interstate Six Year Program is provided through Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) earmarks for the interstate system, along with SAFETEA-LU earmarks matching state funds, which constitutes the state match portion required by SAFETEA-LU regulations.
The expected completion date is October 30, 2012.

For Immediate Release
Date: 03/31/14
AUGUSTA - The Maine House of Representatives late Monday afternoon voted 77-57 in favor of LD 1794, a politically-motivated bill to nullify a contract between the Department of Health and Human Services and the Alexander Group, a Medicaid consulting firm hired to reduce costs in the MaineCare system.
Six House Democrats joined Republicans in opposing the unprecedented measure. They were Reps. Terry Hayes of Buckfield, Brian Jones of Freedom, Bryan Kaenrath of South Portland, Stanley Short of Pittsfield, Steve Stanley of Medway, and Arthur Verow of Brewer.
"I'm glad that several of our Democratic colleagues see this bill for what it is, and that is a political ploy that sets an extremely bad precedent," said House Republican Leader Ken Fredette of Newport. "What company would want to do business with Maine's state government if the Legislature just stepped in and cancelled their contract? As a spiteful piece of legislation, I see this as a bill akin to the one to sell the Blaine House and go after Governor LePage's pension."
Rep. Fredette, an attorney, also questioned the bill's constitutionality. Assistant House Republican Leader Alex Willette added that DHHS was continuing its mission of reform under Governor Paul LePage in hiring the Alexander Group.
"Democrats don't like the results they've seen from the firm, but the bottom line is we must reform Medicaid. Something has to be done because costs are ballooning out of control and Mainers are paying the price with higher taxes, more debt, and fewer services," said Rep. Willette. "It's a lot easier to sit back and criticize someone else's work than it is to go out and do it yourself, and for years under liberal politicians, nobody did the work to reform our bloated welfare system."

Since the 1960s, when Johannes von Trapp and his family first opened the Trapp Family Lodge above Stowe, skiing has been at the heart of the winter experience there. In the early days, von Trapp might have been content simply to escape into the pristine woods for a few hours alone on skis. His development of a modern Nordic skiing center shifted the focus to groomed trails, fitness and racing, and made "Trapps" a prized destination for lovers of the sport. Today, however, the growing demand for untracked snow and backcountry solitude is bringing skiing at Trapps full circle.
"What my dad was envisioning back then is what we are really getting back to now," says Johannes' son, Sam von Trapp, who is helping to run the family business. "After 42 years, we are really getting back to skiing in the woods again."

Think of some of the most popular, epic, and exciting stories of all time. We're talking stories that make tons of money at the box office and that are constantly found on people's "Top Ten Greatest Stories of All Time" lists. We bet that Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings are some titles that immediately come to mind. What do all of these great stories have in common? They each involve some kind of hero going on a quest. Authors and Hollywood filmmakers rake in the big bucks with stories about heroes and their epic journeys, defeating monsters and evildoers, and maybe finding a little love along the way.
Hmmm. We might even be so bold as to say that humans are obsessed with stories about quests. "Say what, Shmoop?" That's right. You heard us. We think that people are in love with quest stories. Why is this? Well, one reason might be that quest stories are like detailed road maps of life. Just like life, quests often involve the same elements, or should we say side effects:
In reading and watching quest stories, we humans can learn more about how to navigate our own confusing, complicated lives.
And the Twelve Labors of Heracles is probably one of the most famous quests in all of mythology. Unlike most of our modern-day heroes, Heracles (you might know him by his Roman name, Hercules) is no ordinary dude. His dad is the king of the gods. He has divine blood. That's how we know he's got a majorly complex and action-packed quest ahead of him.

Panel Recommends That Avandia Stay on the Market
Tara Dairman
August 3, 2007
An advisory panel to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has voted that the Type 2 diabetes drug rosiglitazone (brand name Avandia; also found in Avandamet and Avandaryl) should remain on the market. The panel does, however, recommend that the drug carry new safety warnings to reflect its risk to the heart.
The panel, which was convened to address the recent controversy over the safety of rosiglitazone, met on Monday, July 30. It heard testimony from various speakers: Some argued that risks associated with rosiglitazone outweighed the drug's benefits, while others denied that the drug posed a greater risk of heart attack than other diabetes drugs. Subsequently, the panel members voted 20 to 3 that the drug does pose a risk to heart health according to available research data, but also voted 22 to 1 to keep rosiglitazone on the market because that data are not conclusive.
Rosiglitazone made headlines in May when an analysis of multiple studies, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, linked taking the drug to an increased risk of heart attack. (See "Type 2 Drug Avandia Linked to Increased Risk of Heart Attacks.") Since then, data from other studies supplied by both independent researchers and drug manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline has come to light, some of it showing increased risk and some showing no evidence of excess risk.
The advisory panel suggested that the FDA require rosiglitazone to carry stricter warning labels and that it not be prescribed to certain high-risk groups. For instance, statistical analysis by the FDA has shown that people who use rosiglitazone along with insulin have a significantly elevated risk of heart attack. People who already have heart disease, additionally, should not be prescribed rosiglitazone. And people who have congestive heart failure should also not be prescribed rosiglitazone (or pioglitazone [Actos], the other drug in the thiazolidinedione class), which can make the chronic condition worse. The FDA recently asked both drugs to carry "black box" warnings, the strongest warning the FDA requires, about this risk.
However, the panel did not feel that evidence about rosiglitazone's risks was strong enough to require that the drug be pulled from the market. One expert stated that the FDA should call for a study dedicated to reviewing heart risks associated with rosiglitazone.
While the FDA is not required to follow the recommendations of its advisory panels, it usually does so.
This blog entry is part of DiabetesSelfManagement.com's continuing coverage of the rosiglitazone controversy. For more background information, please see the following recent entries:
"Diabetes Drug Linked to Fracture Risk"
"Type 2 Drug Avandia Linked to Increased Risk of Heart Attacks"
"New Data on Avandia; New Warnings for TZD Drugs"
"More Trouble for Avandia; Alternative Drugs Reviewed"
my husband has Type 2 diabetes and one of the drugs he takes is Avandia he started taking it in AUG. OF 2006 and on OCT. 17, 2006 58 DAYS later he had a massive heart attack and almost died he had a 4 bypass operation on OCT. 23, 2006 they had to wait for his heart to heel it self a little before they could do the sugary his heart had been damaged that bad thank GOD he was in a good hospital and had great Doctors to take care of him why would the FDA want to keep a drug like this one the market unless there is a kick back of some kind the drug is not safe I don't think because it seems very strange to me and my husband that just 58 days after taking this drug that all of this happened I just wanted to let you know how we feel about Avandia thank you for your time Donna Lee & Walter

With a few discarded mailing tubes, construction paper, and Fiskars Squeeze Punches you can craft these characters in under 20 minutes.
The AdvantEdge™ Punch System features slide-and-lock technology that makes punching perfectly aligned borders easier than ever.
My daughter had this theme when she turned one (winter ONEderland) and again as recently as age ten.
My favorite part of a winter themed party is definitely having a hot chocolate bar. It's fun to find all kinds of marshmallows and sprinkles to fill up the buffet-style display.
For a fun way to label the food items, create spiraled snowmen from white cardstock. Punch three circles in ascending sizes (I used the M, L, and XL squeeze punches) and cut a spiral from the edge to the center and wrap around a toothpick or other thin item. Hot glue them in a row on your label for texture and cuteness.
You will, of course, need mugs for your cocoa. There aren't many cuter ways to tell one cup from another than each mug having its own scarf! Stamp each guest's name on a scarf cut from felt and tie on. Super easy and full of personality.
The AdvantEdge™ Punch System makes a dramatic backdrop of lacy snowflakes easy! Punch lots of snowflake strips and adhere together to the desired height of your backdrop. Glue the strips along a dowel to hang or hot glue onto a background. Overlap some of the strips for added dimension. Cut the strips slightly longer than needed so they puddle a little at the bottom for even more texture.
You have probably seen these fun snowflakes before as they've been around forever. My daughter's friends have long been obsessed with making them. I thought I'd see if I could put a Fiskars® spin on them and make all of my cuts with pinking edgers instead of regular scissors and loved the results!
If you aren't familiar with these, here's how you make them. Cut six squares of white printer paper for each snowflake, depending on the size flake you want. Just make sure they are all the same size. Fold two in half at a time and cut as shown. Open each square and pull and adhere the inner most corners together in a loop. Turn over and adhere the next two corners together. Repeat for each corner.
Glue them together in two groups of three, and then glue the two groups together at the center. For stability, you can glue each "petal" together where they meet. Punch a 1/16 inch hole at the top to hang.
I used my Fuse to cut out snowflakes to create cupcake toppers. The leftover negative made me think about using it as a stencil. I placed it on a chalkboard and made strokes from the outside toward the inside, covering the entire shape toward the center. I love these! They remind me of what snowflakes look like under a microscope.
Consider a winter wonderland party for your next event for a fun theme easy to decorate!

Hexachrome Printing
The Whys and Hows of RIPping HiFi Print Jobs
By Dan Reid
Hifidelity printing is on the rise. The flexography market is aggressively adopting the PANTONE Hexachrome printing system for increased color vibrancy. Large and grand format printers that support red and blue or Hexachrome ink configurations are available today. The challenge is selecting a RIP that provides robust calibration and mature color separation features using ICC color format.
Adding hifidelity printing or a Hexa-chrome workflow is a daunting challenge for most. Not only is support for multi-color workflows sparse but confusing. Seperating images into five or more color channels is not a system print professionnals are accustomed to, let alone graphic designers.What file formats support more than four color channels? How do you target color for hifidelity systems in the regular imaging toolset of Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.?
A growing handful of applications support more than four color channels. Photoshop does not directly support converting to more than four color channels. Neither does Adobe Illustrator. Adobe InDesign v2 does not support the Hexachrome printing process as Quark v4+ does.
Plug-ins from Pantone aid in separating to six-color Hexachrome printer profiles from Photoshop and Illustrator but not five or seven or more. So you see multi-color separations are not standardized across applications by any means. This is where a mature RIP can convert to special ink configurations instead of relying upon clients (or workstations) to convert upstream.
4/c vs Hexachrome The most widely publicized hifidelity ink configuration is justifiably the Hexachrome process. Hexachrome certified inks are not the run of the mill cyan, magenta etc. inks but have brighteners to achieve a cleaner color resulting in a larger color gamut. You really aren't taking advantage of the Hexachrome process if you just add orange and green to your normal CMYK ink set. The Hexachrome process was introduced in 1996 by a direct descendant of Pantone's founder; Pantone boasts 90 percent or better matching with Hexachrome certified inks and paper combinations.
Hexachrome requires color management ICC profiles for conversion. Ideally the RIP will recognize and use embedded ICC profile information for bitmap graphics and allow default designation for EPS. If the RIP does not support six color ICC profiles, pre-seperate them in Photoshop or Illustrator using the PANTONE HexWare plug-ins or within a page layout program. Verify that the RIP accepts pre-separated files like DCS 2.0, EPS or PDF to get around proprietary color systems. Proprietary color systems utilize tables instead of standard ICC profiles.
In most cases two additional colors work best instead of odd color configurations. You wouldn't really want to build a five color ICC profile of just an additional red primary for photographic output. Adding blue with red primary provides the complimentary color to balance hue back. So a RIP that does not support five or seven channel ICC profiles is not necessarily a limitation.
Offset and sheet-fed printers charge a premium for additional spot color bump plates because of the additional make-ready and clean-up in the printing. Hexachrome ink configuration minimizes make-ready and clean-up. The time, materials and labor savings alone justify using a six color configuration. Jobs designed for four color plus spot plates can be converted to Hexachrome process to allow more jobs on the same press without clean-up between jobs.
Spot ColorsA RIP should have the option to measure color with a spectrophotometer. Most RIPs include default tables for Pantone color libraries. Better RIPs use L*A*B* values of the PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM using the ICC output profile. For instance ColorBurst RIP incorporates Praxi-soft's VectorPro product to minimize color mismatch. VectorPro's supertweak function builds optimized libraries using an output profile and licensed Pantone L*A*B* libraries instead of generic process builds.
Elements for successThe biggest factor bar none in successful hifidelity and Hexachrome printing is the RIP software. Most RIPs support color calibration for four color printing but may not for additional colors. A good RIP uses a color measurement device for primary color ink restriction and linearization (dot gain curves). Ideal RIPs include an option to designate how much and where the additional primaries are mixed. The idea is to restrict the additional primaries by lightness and saturation. RIPs that include this advanced feature offer a number of confusing GUI. After determining ideal ink restrictions and linearization curves you can successfully characterize the stable printing process.
The calibration data should be used for both pre-separated files and those converted by the RIP. File formats that support multi-channel are DCS 1.0 or 2.0, EPS, PDF v1.3 and separated Adobe Postscript 3 files. DCS is commonly found in programs like Photoshop for saving out each color channel as a separate file. V2 contains each plate in a singular file with a composite preview available. Since the file is separated color plates, no color processing aside from calibration restrictions is imposed. Separated files also feature a single file containing all the color info. PDF offers the same features and functionality.
So multi-color printing is not for the timid. Pre-separating upstream can sometimes mitigate confusing workflows. The choice for conversion in Photoshop and Illustrator is limited by the Pantone plug-ins known as HexWare. Other software programs like Gretag's iQue color server product do support six channel ICC profiles for conversion. QuarkXPress v4.x (and higher) does support Hexachrome ICC profiles.
Even these alternative solutions can be baffling to configure. Choosing a RIP with Hexachrome ICC profiles support simplifies conversion. Undoubtedly the RIP will have adequate calibration options to maintain consistency.

I need to eat a late-night snack of crow with regard to a post yesterday about the Metropolitan Water District's designs on the McCloud River. The lower McCloud is very scenic and certainly feels wild, but it is not, strictly speaking, "wild and scenic" and all that name implies under state law.
What is it? Confusing.
The California Wild and Scenic River Act was indeed amended -- in 1989, I believe -- to protect the McCloud River because it "possesses extraordinary resources in that it supports one of the
finest wild trout fisheries in the state" and because its "existing natural condition represents the best way to protect the unique fishery of the McCloud River."
There's also a strange and ugly compromise of a section that specifically pertains to the enlargement of Lake Shasta:
(c) Except for participation by the Department of Water Resources in studies involving the technical and economic feasibility of enlargement of Shasta Dam, no department or agency of the state shall assist or cooperate with, whether by loan, grant, license, or otherwise, any agency of the federal, state, or local government in the planning or construction of any dam, reservoir, diversion, or other water impoundment facility that could have an adverse effect on the free-flowing condition of the McCloud River, or on its wild trout fishery.
If I read that right, DWR can study building a larger dam, but no state agency can spend a nickel doing anything to actually promote such a dam -- unless and until the Legislature says otherwise, which would seem to be the Met's goal.
Anyway, the McCloud is definitely protected under state law, but it is not formally designated "wild and scenic." I suspect that compromise language will provide plenty of room for arguments on both sides of the divide.

SEVIS has been set up by the U.S. government in an effort to keep track of all exchange visitors (J visas) and international foreign students (F & M visas) during their stay in the United States. SEVIS replaced an old manual, paper-driven procedure with an automated one in which real time, accurate information is updated and maintained through the use of a web-based application. SEVIS has also enabled schools and exchange program sponsors to transmit electronic information and event notifications via the internet, to the Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Department of State throughout exchange visitor's and the student's stay in the U.S.
All the J1 program sponsors must comply with SEVIS rules & regulations and keep all of exchange visitors' records up to date by U.S. law. Therefore, it is VERY IMPORTANT that the J1 Work/Travel and Trainee Program participants report us their arrival confirmation and U.S. home address within 7 days of their arrival in order for us to validate their program in SEVIS and to remain in contact with us for any changes in the program within 7 days of change. If a participant forgets this important requirement, he/she is going to be in danger of losing the program sponsorship and may have the program terminated.
At our program orientation sessions and through program applications, our participants are given precise details and instructions about SEVIS.
Many thanks and good luck with your application!

The Discriminant of a Quadratic Equation - Problem 1
Using the discriminant to find the number and type of solutions. The discriminant is the part of the quadratic formula that is underneath the square root, which is b² minus 4ac and basically by using this we'll be able to figure out the number and type of solutions. We won't know what our solutions are but we'll know the general look or feel of what they're going to give us.
All we have to do is take our quadratic equation and plug it into our formula. So b², b is -4, negative 4² is 16 minus 4, a is our first term which is 5 and c is our last term which is -3. So 16, we're minusing, this is going to be negative so it's going to turn positive, 4 times 5 is 20, times 3 is 60. 16 plus 60 is 76. So our is positive but it's not a perfect square which means when we take the square root of it we're going to be left with a square root which tells us that we are going to have two answers. We have the plus and minus the square root. So we have two answers, we're going to have the square root so they're going to be irrational.

Please take a look at our tutorial video which shows the initial set up of your Icona range of pump espresso. This tutorial is suitable for any of our pump espresso range.
Regular descaling your machine is an important part of caring for it and will prolong the life of your pump espresso. Please follow these simple steps:
If you have very hard water please carry this procedure out every month or two, depending on how many coffees you make. In soft water areas every three to six months should suffice.
For more information see our tutorial videos on the Icona, Vintage and Motivo ranges:
The traditional frother can take a bit of practice. First of all, ensure the milk is fresh and at refrigerator temperature. Use a stainless steel carafe so you can feel the temperature of the milk.
In order to make perfect cappuccino dip the tip of the traditional milk frother into the milk. When the appliance is ready carefully rotate the steam valve until it is fully open. This will froth the milk.
Next, when you have achieved enough froth, use your free hand to feel the carafe temperature. Alternatively use a thermometer. Never heat the milk over 70 degrees as this will affect the quality of the frothed milk. It is also possible to froth milk in this way for excellent hot chocolate and malt drinks.
Each time you finish milk delivery allow a little steam to flush through the frother, and remember to clean the removable nozzles thoroughly with a little washing up liquid. Rinse and dry thoroughly before reassembling.
The tutorial video below will show you how to make your first espresso:
A Crema is the creamy foam produced when the coffee comes through the machine into the cup.
A good crema is thick and lasts for several minutes, it should also cover the surface of the coffee.
For more information about coffee including recipes, hints and tips and machine information please our website www.seriousaboutcoffee.com.
ESE (Easy Serve Espresso) pods can be purchased from larger supermarkets, specialist coffee shops, and at various online retailers. Most coffee retailers offer a huge selection of brands at very competitive prices.
Any good espresso is recommended. ESE pods are similar to a tea bag but are packed tightly with ground coffee and are an easy way of delivering excellent espresso coffee. These coffee pods are single portioned and require no manual tamping. Each one will deliver the same texture, consistency and flavour.
Once used the pods can be composted, or added to your garden, as coffee provides good organic material for your plants.
Our 'How To' video shows you how to use ESE pods with your machine:
All of your favourite coffee recipes can be made with your De'Longhi coffee machine. For a full list of delicious coffee recipes please see our Serious About Coffee website by clicking on the following link:

If your machine is leaking from the traditional frother, please carry out the following simple checks:
A list of De'Longhi approved repair agents can be viewed by clicking on the following link: http://www.delonghi.com/en-GB/customer-experience/customer-experience-uk/

Traditional pump espresso machines do not require the filter handle to be at a right angle in order to function normally.
Tighten the handle firmly at a level you can manage and you will be able to make espressos. After two or three uses you may find the seal has softened considerably.
As long as the handle is firmly attached when making coffee the machine will operate normally.
If your pump espresso maker is new, or has not been used for some time, there may be air in the system. Please carry out the following simple steps to rectify this problem:
If your machine is more than a few months old and it is unable to deliver coffee it may need descaling. Please follow the instructions in your manual and clean the coffee delivery area and filters as instructed. Ensure the traditional frother nozzles are clean and free from milk residue.

RangeItemHeaderValue Class
Represents a byte range in a Range header value.
Namespace: System.Net.Http.Headers
Assembly: System.Net.Http (in System.Net.Http.dll)
The RangeItemHeaderValue type exposes the following members.
|Initializes a new instance of the RangeItemHeaderValue class.
|Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current RangeItemHeaderValue object. (Overrides Object.Equals(Object).)
|Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
|Serves as a hash function for an RangeItemHeaderValue object. (Overrides Object.GetHashCode().)
|Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
|Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Returns a string that represents the current RangeItemHeaderValue object. (Overrides Object.ToString().)
|Creates a new object that is a copy of the current RangeItemHeaderValue instance.
The RangeHeaderValue class provides support for a byte range in a Range header as defined in RFC 2616 by the IETF.
A Range header can specify multiple byte ranges.
An example of a byte-range in a Range header in an HTTP protocol request that requests the first 100 bytes would be would be the following:
Range: bytes=0-99\r\n\r\n
A HTTP server indicates support for Range headers with the Accept-Ranges header. An example of the Accept-Ranges header from a server that supports byte-ranges would be as follows:
Accept-Ranges: bytes\r\n\r\n
If an Accept-Ranges header is not received in the header of the response from the server, then the server does not support Range headers. An example of the Accept-Ranges header from a server that does not support ranges, but recognizes the Accept-Ranges header, would be as follows:
Accept-Ranges: none\r\n\r\n
Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core Role not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core Role supported with SP1 or later; Itanium not supported)

This gentleman had undergone previous reconstructive rhinoplasty at another center. As he did not desire surgical intervention, I felt he would be a good candidate for nonsurgical rhinoplasty, using Radiesse. A total of 0.4 mL was placed along the bridge of his nose to create a smooth profile.

When compared to the competition, the value, quality, function and style of our gear can't be beat. This is achieved through factory direct, product specific production, quality craftsmanship, and the use of proven brand name components. At Olympia Moto Sports, we never cut corners. Rider safety is our number one concern.
Why we insist on authentic Cordura®
When put to the test, Cordura® resists tears and abrasions like no other fabric of its kind. The fabrics below were subjected to the Wyzenbeck abrasion test. Which would you rather ride in?
Authentic Dupont Cordura®
Due to outstanding abrasion resistance and durability, Cordura® performance fabric is a key element found only in top quality motorcycle apparel. Cordura is 2 to 14 times more durable than imitation nylon and polyester fabrics . We've tested fabrics used by our competitors but none come close to the heat and abrasion resistance of authentic Dupont Cordura®.
Custom Fit Detailing
An ergonomic, comfortable fit and well positioned body armor is essential for motorcycle apparel to function effectively. Because all riders are built differently, adjustability is a primary factor to look for when selecting riding gear. OMS helps riders achieve a customized fit by offering adjustable collars, cuffs, waistbands, elbow armor adjusters, EZ hem bottoms and three-tier adjustable knee armor.
YKK Zippers
Highly regarded for their strength and durability, YKK sets the standard for quality zippers.
3M Scotchlite™
This highly reflective material greatly enhances a rider's safety at night and in low visibility situations by reflecting light back to the original source.
Authentic Thermolite® Insulation
Special thermal bonded fibers provide a high level of warmth with minimal bulk and weight. Thermolite® insulation features exceptional softness, flexibility and durability.
CE Approved Motion Flex Articulated Armor
Standard issue in Olympia garments, the CE mark embossed on our armor certifies that it has been submitted for lab testing and has passed rigorous guidelines required for use in European markets. It's articulated dual density construction offers a robust outer shell with a shock absorbing interior for maximum comfort and protection.
System Jackets & Pants
As touring riders, we're very familiar with the challenge of packing essentials, while packing light. To make room for additional storage space, select styles in this collection are equipped with removable "Systems Liners" that double as functional sportswear. With a few quick motions, you can strip away your outer shells and tool around town or country in comfort and style.
Ergonomic Function & Form
Olympia garments are designed for all day comfort. Standard features include a modern ergonomic fit, drop back waists, pre-curved arms and padded collars. OMS gear is sized to fit North Americans and it's wide range of adjustability offers riders the best fit in the industry.
Safety Stitching
OMS garments are constructed with high-test, abrasion resistant nylon stitching throughout. All major seams are reinforced with multiple rows of stitching for added strength and durability.

text: There's no doubt that nearly any shade of blue eye shadow is on-trend this season, but according to Ginnifer Goodwin's makeup artist Mai Quynh, who created this look for the star, the key is wearing one at a time. "Ginnifer's makeup works because it's one soft shade of turquoise. When you start layering different tones together, it can be too much," she says. So try a cobalt version like Mindy Kaling, or a rich navy like Amy Adams, and be measured with your application. "Keep the rest of your makeup very neutral, and don?t go past the crease," Quynh advises. "Otherwise, it can look very cheesy."Read MoreLess

WAP - Wireless Application Protocol
Short for the Wireless Application Protocol, a secure specification that allows users to access information instantly via handheld wireless devicessuch as mobile phones, pagers, two-way radios, smartphones and communicators.
WAP supports most wireless networks. These include CDPD, CDMA, GSM, PDC, PHS, TDMA, FLEX, ReFLEX, iDEN, TETRA, DECT, DataTAC, and Mobitex.
WAP is supported by all operating systems. Ones specifically engineered for handheld devices include PalmOS, EPOC, Windows CE, FLEXOS, OS/9, and JavaOS.
WAPs that use displays and access the Internet run what are called microbrowsers--browsers with small file sizes that can accommodate the low memory constraints of handheld devices and the low-bandwidthconstraints of a wireless-handheld network.
Although WAP supports HTML and XML, the WML language (an XML application) is specifically devised for small screens and one-hand navigation without a keyboard. WML is scalable from two-line text displays up through graphic screens found on items such as smart phones and communicators. WAP also supports WMLScript. It is similar to JavaScript, but makes minimal demands on memory and CPU power because it does not contain many of the unnecessary functionsfound in other scripting languages.
Because WAP is fairly new, it is not a formal standardyet. It is still an initiative that was started by Unwired Planet, Motorola, Nokia, and Ericsson.

"We don't just sell RV Quick Shades....first we were RV Quick Shade customers....and then became their biggest fans!"
"We bought our first set of inside mount solar windshield screens from RV Quick Shades shortly after Dave and Pat started their new shade company over ten years ago and...well...to be honest... these darn inside mount shades changed our lives!
Five years ago we traded up to our third motorhome, a Monaco Diplomat, and for our first after-market purchase we choose our third set of RV Quick Shades. Shortly after we became RV Quick Shade dealers. We don't endorse..or sell anything that we don't use...and firmly believe in...so the fact that we're now RV Quick Shades dealers speaks volumes!"

"Let me set the stage. It was 90 degrees with full sun. My Newmar Class A read 96 degrees inside. I opened the windows and the temp dropped to 89 degrees. It then took me about 30 minutes to measure the sunshade, place the suction cups, and cut-to-fit the shade.
Within the next 30 minutes, while I cleaned up my tools and scraps, the temp inside dropped to 83 degrees with no AC or fans running. I was really impressed. We have suffered with parking for 2-4 days with the windshield toward the west and the resultant heat inside. We're going out again in 3 days, and I'm thinking we're going to be so much cooler. Thanks for a super product that is easy to install, put up, and take down. It is great to get a high quality item at a reasonable price that actually works as advertised!"

"Just a quick note to say how much I like my new RV sun shades. We are in Bristol TN for the NASCAR races. My wife didn't realize they were up because from the inside they are barely noticeable. You were right the black was the best choice. I like these much better than my old tan ones. My daughter and I spaced the section cups out equally. Putting up and taking down and stowing away is a snap especially when its raining. Count us as another happy customer of RV sunshades. "

VJAA designed this 5,500-square-foot penthouse apartment, located in a new high-rise building, to display the client's collection of contemporary Asian art. Warm walnut floors define the four-bedroom home, while an open-slatted walnut ceiling in the living room, dining room, and kitchen conceals lighting fixtures, sprinklers, and acoustical material. The ample public area is delineated not by walls but by planes of perforated aluminum, giving the space composure, but also a sense of air and light.
Jury: "This is a beautifully conceived and detailed work of interior architecture employing traditional principles of Modernism while transforming and extending that language with an innovative and carefully considered vocabulary of materials, colors, and patterns."
Client: Wished to remain anonymous and declined comment.
