I've started grinding on Carbon again. Getting the feeling these skins allowing US players aren't going to last long and will go through some growing pains when the US gets legalized again... but I think that will be sometime THIS year.

I used to view Tournaments as higher variance than cash. But it's obviously not the case for me anymore.
I cashed in 4 tournaments again today, and 6 yesterday. I find them less tilting than cash. They are being more consistent and less variance for me. I was playing mostly cash, with tournaments a couple days a week. But now, I'm going to reverse that. I'm going to play tournaments most days of the week, and only play cash when it suits me. It's only a matter of time before I take…Continue

Most people thought this series between the Knicks and the Celtics would be a long one. Knicks fans who thought that would be the case, like myself, thus shouldn't have been too devastated on Sunday when the Knicks' valiant effort to sweep the series fell short in overtime. Right?
Personally, I think the 3-0 lead the Knicks took spoiled me a bit. Heading into the series I was just hoping the Knicks would win somehow, anyhow, but on Sunday I thirsted for the sweep. I guess it was probably a payback thing, wanting to stick it to the Celtics on their home floor. But we return back to New York Wednesday for a Game 5, a game the Knicks figure to be favored in. Before we get there, let's head back to Game 4 for a few observations:
An uplifting thing: Raymond Felton. He's been one of the unsung players for the Knicks all season, and Sunday damn near won them a playoff game all by himself. With J.R. Smith asininely suspended, Felton took on the secondary scoring load, even if it took him until the third quarter to get going. And by "get going" I really mean "explode". Felton scored 16 points in the third quarter to help cut the Knicks' deficit from 20 to three, mostly making perimeter jumpers when the Celtics kept deciding to go under screens on him. Felton also continued to play excellent defense, as he has all series, on Celtics much taller than him. His solid two-way play has been a big factor in the series so far.
A disconcerting thing: I'm as big a defender of Carmelo Anthony as anyone, but Sunday was one to forget for the Knicks' lead man. Yes, he was able to get to the free throw line a lot…but he missed two big ones down the stretch. The Knicks were still able to get to OT, but missed free throws in the final minutes are never a good thing, especially from the guy you want with the ball in crunch time. And yes, he scored 36 points…but missed 25 (!) field goal attempts, all seven of his 3-point attempts, and had seven of the Knicks' 15 turnovers. Worse off aren't the ghastly shooting numbers, it's the way Anthony tried to go about getting buckets throughout most of the game, especially down the stretch. Make no mistake, Anthony is the guy you want to feature in close games late, but how about a pick-and-roll between him and Felton? Chances are Melo won't have a game that bad in a while, which would be quite helpful to the Knicks' chances in these playoffs.
An uplifting thing: The Knicks showed a lot of grit in coming back after a terrible first half. After halftime, the Knicks remembered to stop turning the ball over, committing just three in the entire second half and OT (as compared to 12 in the first half). And as they have all series, the Knicks' defense after halftime was incredible, allowing 30 points in the 3rd and 4th quarters.
A disconcerting thing: I don't think this was the best day for coach Mike Woodson, who has seemingly pushed every right button up until this point. Firstly, in a game where you're missing your second best scorer, it's worth questioning why Chris Copeland didn't play a second. And then you realize that Quentin Richardson played meaningful minutes and…well, huh? Understandably Copeland's defense leaves a lot to be desired, and maybe that's why Woodson refused to go to him. But the guy can definitely score, and the Knicks were really struggling to do just that in the first half. The Knicks did come back from the big early deficit, but maybe it didn't have to get that big in the first place.
An uplifting thing: The Knicks got an all-time stinker from their best player, were missing their second-top scorer and the Sixth Man of the Year, had one of their worst halves in a very long time, hit just seven 3-pointers, surrendered 26 points to Jeff Green…and still made it to overtime. And they're still up 3-1. Seth Rosenthal of Posting and Toasting noted on Twitter after the game that if Games 3 and 4 took place in the opposite order, the feeling of being up 3-1 would be much different. But the Knicks still have a chance to wrap this thing up fairly early, at home, where they have been very strong all season. I think the Knicks would have signed up for the chance to wrap it up in five…I know I would have.

(CARLSBAD, CA) – Breaking bad habits. It's easier said than done. Whether it's nail biting, teeth grinding, or throat clearing, most of us have an annoying habit that we'd like to ditch. And in some cases, ditching bad habits may have a remarkable affect on our overall health and well-being.
A groundbreaking study just published in the Archives of Internal Medicine documents how individuals with healthy lifestyle behaviors look and feel 12 years younger. On the flip side, individuals with four bad habits – excessive drinking, smoking, physical inactivity, and poor diet – possess the qualities of someone 12 years older.
The study, which followed 4,886 British adults over 20 years, defines "bad habits" as drinking more than two alcoholic beverages daily, smoking tobacco, getting less than two weekly hours of exercise, and eating fewer than three daily fruits and vegetables. Sadly, 29 percent of the adults who engaged in all four poor behaviors actually passed away during the course of the study.
Yet, individuals who abstained from those four bad habits seemed to have found the fountain of youth. Or at least they found the key to feeling and looking 12 years younger! And the encouraging news is that these individuals weren't running Olympic-length marathons or choking down spinach smoothies.
There's no need to make drastic lifestyle changes in the next twenty minutes. But, if you are ready to jump on the healthy lifestyle bandwagon and put a new spring in your step, Jazzercise Founder and CEO Judi Sheppard Missett has a few suggestions for you.
1. Start Small – Don't try to change everything overnight. Simply add one additional fruit to your daily diet. Cut out one glass of wine on the weekend. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Small changes will eventually add up to big results.
2. Get Help – When it comes to deeply entrenched habits, such as smoking, talk to your doctor for help. Your co-worker may have been able to quit cold turkey, but there's nothing wrong with seeking some professional assistance.
3. Track Your Progress – Write down how many vegetables you eat per day. Log the minutes that you walk on the treadmill. You will be encouraged as you see the differences over time.
4. Reward Yourself – Breaking bad habits is not a small feat. Reward yourself for your accomplishments. If you meet your goal of completing four workouts in a week, then treat yourself to a pedicure. If you eat five servings of fruits and veggies every day for a month, then snatch-up that handbag that you've been eyeing in the department store window.
5. Keep Your Eye on the Prize – During those moments when you simply want to throw in the towel, focus on the end result of your efforts. Think about what you have to gain by sticking with your goal.

What inspires your creations?
Urban and industrial landscapes and the people who exist within these areas.
What is your favorite piece?
My favorite is usually the one I'm working on at the moment! If I had to choose a finished piece, it would be one of my Coney Island lampshades. It really is a shame that place is gone, especially with no redevelopment plan in place.
If you had only $10 in your pocket, what would you do with it?
I would probably buy a bottle of wine and/or ice cream, go to my studio, and make something.

Drilling into porcelain tiles is a lot trickier than drilling holes in ceramic tiles as porcelain is a much harder material. Therefore rather than using a standard spear shaped tile bit that is used for ceramic tiles (see my guide – 'Fixing into tiles'), you need to use a diamond drill bit, which is specifically designed for making holes in hard tiles. Like any drill bits, diamond bits come in a number of different sizes, so you need to select the right size of bit for the job at hand and for the example below I'm showing how to use a 15mm diamond drill bit for drilling into porcelain tiles.
1. Diamond drill bits for cutting holes in tiles are effectively hole saws that simply fit into the chuck of any cordless drill.
2. Mark on your tile where you need the hole to be cut, and cover with some masking tape. This tape will help stop the drill bit slipping when you begin to drill.
3. Start the drill up on a slowish spade. It can help to hold the drill so that the bit is at a slight angle to the surface of the tile. This helps prevents slipping and gets the bit started on the hole.
4. Once you've made a start, move the drill up into a vertical position and continue to drill, applying even light pressure as you drill down through the tile.
5. You need to keep the bit cool whilst drilling, otherwise it will wear out incredibly quickly. One way to do this is to keep some water in a container next to where you're drilling, and regularly dip the bit in the water to cool it down.
6. The diamond bit will cut through the tile providing your required hole, after which you simply clean up the residue and dust the tile off.
Porcelain tile drilling tips
- In this example the tile is being drilled before being fitted in place. I've simply positioned the tile on an offcut of plasterboard, alternatively you could clamp it on a workbench. In whichever case, make sure the tile is adequately supported.
- If the tile is already in position on the wall or floor, the principles of the technique remain exactly the same.
- If you prefer, you can buy a drill guide tool to help start off the hole in the tile.

While the band's name may send chills through your body, make no mistake - this is one of the hottest bands making the club circuit today. Although the band is now based in Nashville, they got their start in Fargo North Dakota. An area known for extremely cold winters and henceforth - the band's name.
The band has been together for over four years and consists of Matt Aakre who is the lead singer and plays lead guitar, Nathan Stang on bass, Ty Taylor on rhythm guitar, Jeb Reinhiller on fiddle and mandolin and Derek Lien on drums. The band's sound id handled by their production engineer, Dusty Schultz. The band gets its influences from country and metal music which is evident in the cover songs they perform as well as their original music. More recently, their influence comes in the form a of a new found friendship with Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry of Montgomery - Gentry fame. 32 Below had open for the guys a couple of times and it prompted Eddie and Troy to take a personal interest in the band by steering them towards key people around Nashville. It has definitely helped the band get some great gigs.
Of course they weren't always great gigs. The band related a story in there early days of arriving in Nashville when a so-called booking agent got the band a show in Mobile Alabama. When the band finally found this hole-in-the-wall bar off the beaten path of mainstream Mobile, it looked like the boys were headed for a real life version of Charlie Daniel's "Uneasy Rider". Once inside the bar, it was obvious the place had seen some rough nights. When the guys inquired about needing 220 volt outlets for their equipment the rough, weather-beaten bar manager said, "We ain't got no 220. Besides, yur stuff's gonna' end up broke anyway." The band said that probably was a bit of a stretch of the truth but the old boy at the bar said, "No, really. It WILL get broke." After a quick powwow the band announced that they were going to go get something to eat and with that they grabbed the stuff they had already carried in and made a beeline for the van. Never to return.
32 Below does have a much brighter future ahead. They are getting ready to do a 3rd CD which will be done live. Look for its release in January 2006. Below are pictures from their first visit to 8 Seconds Saloon. For more information on the band be sure to visit their website at www.32below.net.

Why PAL PS3 owners should import Rock Band

Playstation 3 continues to top Folding@Home statistics
April 10, 2007 Folding@Home is a distributed computing project where people donate spare clock-cycles from the CPU or GPU in their Internet-connected PC's, the result of which is one of the largest supercomputers in the world. The Folding@Home client for the Playstation 3, released as part of a recent system update for the console, quickly raced to the top of the statistics. Shortly after, just as the network of over 20,000 consoles was about to hit the team's goal of one petaflop, the Folding@Home team reevaluated the performance of the console - dropping it to half the original figure. In spite of this, the Playstation 3 remains the greatest contributor to Folding@Home, and currently provides over half of the processing power available to the project. Read More
fl0w Review (Playstation 3)
April 4, 2007 The concept of games as art is rarely touched upon, undoubtedly due to the rarity of games one could bring up in a discussion of the concept with a straight face. fl0w is one of the exceptions - a Master of Fine Arts thesis by USC School of Cinematic Arts graduates Jenova Chen and Nicholas Clark. Originally realised in Flash, the game has improved in leaps and bounds after its jump to the Playstation Network, and it's here to manipulate your mood. Read More
Is Sony adding rumble to the SIXAXIS?
March 2, 2007 - Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE) and Immersion have agreed to conclude litigation at the U.S Court of Appeals, and have entered into a new agreement to explore the inclusion of Immersion's technology (read: rumble) in PlayStation products. This is in stark contrast to Phil Harrison's recent comments regarding rumble as a "last-generation feature", which were widely criticised as a desperate attempt to hide the fact that the lack of rumble in the SIXAXIS was a design decision based more on legal proceedings with Immersion, than last/current-generation feature sets.

As the fear mongering campaigns expand, hobbyist photographers are caught in the web of the well-oiled Orwellian machinery.
[A] 49-year-old [man] started by firing off a few shots of the warm-up act on stage. But before the main attraction showed up, Mr Smith was challenged by a police officer who asked if he had a licence for the camera.
After explaining he didn't need one, he was taken down a side-street for a formal "stop and search", then asked to delete the photos and ordered not take any more. So he slunk home with his camera.
"People were still taking photos with mobile phones and pocket cameras, so maybe it was because mine looked like a professional camera with a flash on top," he says.
So let's see. We have the UK government installing tens of thousands of cameras (particularly in London) that can easily keep track of the average citizen throughout the day. Yet if an ordinary person aims a camera at the wrong time (police brutality, demonstrations) or the wrong thing (government buildings and even normal tourist attractions), a government crackdown becomes necessary.The London Metropolitan police has launched an anti-terrorist campaign aimed at photographers, asking people to report suspicious behavior.

1 tsp dry oregano
1 tsp sea salt
1/8 tsp cayenne (optional)
1 cup olive oil
¼ c lemon juice
¼ c olive oil
2.5 tbs acv
2 tbs nutritional yeast
1-2 tsp sea salt
1-2 tsp black pepper
2 medium cloves garlic
1 large date
Blend all ingredients until smooth, starting with the lower amount of salt and pepper. Taste, and reseason if needed.
This next dressing posted by Ingrid on Natural Living Cuisine is really nice. I like to add either some lemon juice or more apple cider vinegar as I prefer a bit of a tangier dressing.
Blend all ingredients except dill until smooth. Add dill and process briefly. Alternatively, you could finely chop the dill and add it by hand.
So there you have it, my top 5 salad dressings...but I'm always on the lookout for new faves - do you have some great ones to share?!

HOWTO: Spam control for POSTFIX
Spam is a major problem for anyone with a mail server. Many times, spam goes to email addresses that don't exist. But, it still is hitting your server even if it isn't delivered. Other times, a users inbox will be overflowing with annoying messages about Viagra, hookers, free software, and whatever else.
Below is a solution. It's an ongoing accumulation of my efforts to stop spam to the best of my abilities. So far, it has a 97% success rate with over 20,000 emails (spam and ham, alike) processed.
Follow the instructions. I will update/modify as necessary if things seem unclear. Feel free to ask.
1) Install Postgrey, RRD, a log parser, and Graphing tools.
apt-get install postgrey rrdtool mailgraph pflogsumm
2) Restart the Postgrey server.
/etc/init.d/postgrey restart
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
4) Create a file named "spamtrap" in the /etc/postfix/ directory. This serves as a filter. If spam is emailed to this address and other addresses on your machine, it will drop that email so that it doesn't get to any other mailboxes.
The Spamtrap file looks like this:
/emailcontrol.*@derekgordon\.com/ DISCARD
Side note: Do not create this mailbox using ISPConfig. There is absolutely no reason for it to exist on your mailserver. It's a fake address meant to catch annoying spam.
5) Open up local.cf for SpamAssassin and add the following bit. It will be an extra filter designed to work with SA more than it is with general Postfix.
nano /etc/spamassassin/local.cf
urirhssub URIBL_BLACK multi.uribl.com. A 2
/etc/init.d/postfix restart
/etc/init.d/spamassassin restart
cp -p /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailgraph.cgi /var/www/www.example.com/cgi-bin
nano /usr/local/sbin/postfix_report.sh
chmod 755 /usr/local/sbin/postfix_report.sh
9) Edit the RSYSLOG file so that your mail.log rotates daily and to setup an automatic email with postfix statistics:
nano /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog
So now you're all done! What did you do? You installed blacklist filters, greylisting, graphing for on-the-fly information about Postfix, daily emails with detailed Postfix stats, created a spam trap, and other minor things to make your mailserver a lot more secure and less susceptible to spam.
IMPORTANT: Let me know what you all do. Please respond with your choice, if you use it, and how well it worked. If there's much of a use, I will keep building upon the instructions and make it even better (hopefully). Responses are in the form of thread messages.
BONUS INSTRUCTIONS: If you use the script I posted below, that gives you GREYLISTING SPECIFIC STATS, do the following:
1) DELETE it from having a CRONJOB if you added one originaly. Mostlikely, you did.
2) Open the RSYSLOG file again.
3) Modify the above entry so that it looks like this:
Again, That script is found a few posts below.
1) If you have people sending you emails and they get rejected because SORBS says their dynamic IP is a bad one, change the following in /etc/postfix/main.cf: "reject_rbl_client dnsbl.sorbs.net" becomes "reject_rbl_client smtp.dnsbl.sorbs.net"
SORBS has a huge variation in repositories. Some AT&T DSL IP's will be found in the DNSBL it appears. So, that could cause a potential no deliver.
2) Similarly to #1, if you find out that there are some SORBS errors in delivering legit emails, you may want to experiement with the various Zones. https://www.au.sorbs.net/using.shtml lists all of them. I recommend SMTP, NOMAIL, SPAM, and ZOMBIE.
3) When upgrading ISPC3 to later versions, the main.cf for Postfix will be erased. This means you can either backup the one you created and replace the changes made by the update script for ISP3, or you can just copy the main.cf information above and use it again. This is the only step that has to be repeated. So, again if you upgrade ISPC3, you need to reconfigure the main.cf for Postfix as it will be replaced by the ISPC3 default main.cf again.
4) If you used this guide prior to 13 October 2010, I recommend removing "reject_rbl_client multihop.dsbl.org" from the main.cf for Postfix. That database has been taken offline. This was "effective" in 2009, but still worked until recently.
The next big step for fixing spam issues is to build a robust header_check and body_check file for Postfix.
As you see above, I have started on the header_check.
I'd like to determine how to setup a SUBJECT filter that would delete any email with more than 7 words. I have had NO legitimate email with more than 6 words in the subject. However, a lot of spam has between 7 and 12 words in the SUBJECT line.
I'm not finding great details on how it works, so it's going to take a lot of time. If you have any of your own mod's please post them so I can compile a better post above.
Also, filtering out all languages you DO NOT use would be sufficient. I will be filtering out all languages except ENGLISH, SPANISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, CZECH, POLISH, and PORTUGUESE when I have time.
By the way, I wont use such filter files for spam filtering. The normal spamassassin and blacklists filter already about 99.x % of all spam and adding such manual filters will just rise the risk of false positives. You can not win the battle against sapm with manual filter rules.
Yes, but if you have NO header blocks added in ISPCONFIG, you can use the header file directly.
In cases that it's not a production server, just for personal uses, it might be easier to copy/paste the above header_check.
However, I understand your point and if entries were being made it would be a conflict.
So, I would recommend doing what Till says if you're already using that feature or may use that feature.
I removed the HEADER_CHECKS I created from the HOWTO as I don't want to confuse.
Here they are for you expert experimenters.
Last piece, and this will be updated as I get more in depth, header_check in the postfix directory should contain these:
/^Subject: .* / REJECT Spam Header Many Spaces 1
- Till is saying not to perform header/body checks within main.cf and use the tools within ispc3, yes? If so, that makes perfect sense to me. I wish there was a service/blocklist that already did it on a realtime basis (somehow).
- Is Postgrey good to load or no? I still need to research postgrey to figure out what it is.
Sorry for my confusion and thank you for including me. By you posting your main.cf, I noticed I had limited my sorbs bl. By changing to yours I blocked a lot more immedietly.
Yes, I would do header_checks in ISPC3 if you're comfortable with that. It's pretty simple in the end. I haven't tested my new ones I wrote yet, so won't post them. But, I'm thinking that postgrey will be the best solution.
POSTGREY is an easy implementation of Greylisting:
Greylisting is a new method of blocking significant amounts of spam at the mailserver level, but without resorting to heavyweight statistical analysis or other heuristical (and error-prone) approaches. Consequently, implementations are fairly lightweight, and may even decrease network traffic and processor load on your mailserver.
Postgrey is a Postfix policy server implementing greylisting. Development of Postgrey started at the ISG.EE and is now sponsored by Open Systems AG.
Once you're using Postgrey and what to see how it's working, install the following script somewhere on your server:
1) Change the "YOUREMAIL = " line so that it goes to your personal mail box. This will give you details on how its working.
2) Make sure that /var/log/mail.log is the correct path to your current mail.log file. Distros are different.
Set the script to chmod +700 so that it is executable.
Finally, create a cronjob so that it will give you an automatic output to your email daily (or whenever you choose).
Have you seen sqlgrey? Not sure if it's better or not but it has an interface that's interesting. Any thoughts?
I have seen it. However, I will stick with Postgrey for the time being.
I recommended in a REQUEST that Till research including SqlGrey and its interface in a future release. At that point, it wouldn't be necessary to use Postgrey.
But, Postgrey is extremely simple (see above instructions) so it isn't worth the extra hassle in my opinion for roughly the same functionality.
I'm researching an addon to Postgrey that will make it even better.
Give Postgrey a chance, use that script above to see how well it works (you will be shocked after the first full day), and see what happens.
The only false positive I have heard of was Paypal. But, that's unconfirmed and worked without a hitch for me.
You can add whitelists for domains, ips, specific emails, clients, etc... with easy in the event there were problems. Whitelists also will skip the delay in delivery.
Let me know what you all do. Please respond with your choice, if you use it, and how well it worked. If there's much of a use, I will keep building upon the instructions and make it even better (hopefully).

I can just imagine how helpful this program must be to survivors of this terrible disease. Myself, I was a caregiver, I lost my husband 16 months ago, after a long, difficult 22 month battle with Esophogeal Cancer...I have great Faith and attend church regularly, but I too needed someone to talk to, someone who have been through similar experience..Finally through the Social Work Dept. of the Dr. H. Bliss Murphy Cancer Care Center, I was lucky enough to join a 8 week program for family members who lost a loved one through Cancer,,it as been a blessing to me, and will surely missed it when we finish in 3 weeks time..I also agree, Patients, survivors, Cargivers, any family members need this care and support, and more advertising on such programs to reach out to the people who need it.. I Pray every night that someone will come forth and put and end to all of this pain and suffering...Sadly its too late for My Family, but I pray for all affected..God Bless each and every patient

I too think this is very good, not only for the survivors but also for their families. The only thing i would question is why does it take a grant from government, what happened to the millions of dollars donated to cancer research and support every year by canadians, myself included. Thats the kind of program i would like to see my donation going to fund.

I think it's a great idea to help cancer patients to cope with and talk to people to help them go forward after such a change in their life. I only wish they had something for familes who lost their love one's because of cancer. I lost a brother Robert Gosse July 14, 2012 There's not a day goes by for me or my family we don't think of him. We had to deal with two deaths within 1 year and 1 month apart But for some reason my other brother's death was easier to deal with because he passed away peaceful. I found dealing with cancer patients it's very difficult to deal with It's watching them suffer and fighting for their life and losing the battle in the end. I'm not sure anytime soon will be able to get over his death because of his suffering. I might be wrong their's help about survivors for love one's If there is such a thing it's not anything i heard off. I just we had a happy ending to have our love one around for awhile longer. I hope surivors familes treasure every hour, min and day they have with thier love one's Wishing all the surivors all the best I wish we had a little happy ending

WASHINGTON, April 28, 2013 ― If you have to sell a bill, than it's bad for the American people and good for a few elite politicians. A good bill can sell itself.
This so-called immigration bill is just as bad as the gun control bill. The people need to knock the pompous "gang of eight" down to size. Senator Graham said that if this bill fails, immigration will not be picked up again for decades. To the contary, if passed, "immigration reform" definitely will be picked up again within a decade, when the federal government again fails to secure the border.
What possible reasons are there for the Republican and Democratic establishments to secure the border? All they care about are cheap labor and votes. They aren't enforcing current border security laws, so why should we believe that they will all of sudden change that?
The Black American unemployment rate is north of 15 percent. College kids can't get jobs busing tables, moving furniture or mowing lawns, yet we have between 11 and 20 million illegals doing these jobs. We have millions on welfare. How about a government-chamber of commerce agreement to have welfare recipients do these jobs instead of people who are here illegally? If you don't take those jobs, you lose welfare.
At the end of the day, bills like this will further the perception by a majority of Americans that their government does not represent their interests.
The only possible way the borders would be secured would be if the people illegally crossing them believed in limited government and admired the U.S. Constitution. If that were the case, the borders would have closed decades ago.
The immigration bill won't just benefit the 11 million people in this country illegally, but also "qualified" family members from the old country. We are talking about possibly 30 to 40 million people.
Message to the gang of eight: Your job is to represent the American people first. You are not doing it with this bill. Secure our borders now! Are you nuts? I can't go into Russia, or England or Germany or South America undocumented. Stop the nonsense. Amnesty is not what conservatives and most Americans want. Don't look to business. They want and will cheat labor.
Please don't misunderstand, I believe Hispanics are good for the US. They love their families, they are hard workers. For the most part they are faith-based. They actually have a quality that America used to hold, but if they came into this country illegally, they must vacate the premises! Get at the back of the line.
Don't you understand what law-abiding legal immigrants who are here and who want to come to the US are feeling right now? Betrayed! America is the land of opportunity for those that want to do it the right way. This is the wrong way and if you have to sell it … it can't be good!

There we were, browsing the Blurb Forums, when we found a question about scanning slides. A lot of Blurbarians use scanned images in their books. We've seen love letters, old photographs, birth announcements, recipe cards, you name it. Here are a few basic tips from some of the Blurberati who use scans in their books:
• Don't try to scan every single family photo in your possession. If you're scanning for a specific book project, just select the best photos to illustrate your book.
• You want your scanned files to be at least 8 bit per channel.
• Pour yourself a big glass (or three) of wine. Scanning is time consuming, but it's fun to go down memory lane.
• Don't get too fancy with your settings, Keep it simple. (i.e. 300 DPI at the Blurb book size you're making.) This will streamline the process for you.
• If you really have a big project and you're not able to spend the time to scan, trying using Digital Pickle.
For basic guidance, wybnormal suggests you explore scantips.com. We checked it out and it is loaded with very helpful scanning tips.
If you use scanned images in your books, please share your technique in the comments below or jump into the Forums.

UA Ethics Center to Host Veteran Journalist Gene Foreman
by Luke Jones
Posted 9/9/2013 12:00 am
Updated 1 year ago
The University of Arkansas in Fayetteville recently announced it would host Gene Foreman, professor of journalism and a 41-year veteran of the industry.
Foreman will be the first visiting distinguished professor of ethics in journalism at the university's Walter J. Lemke Department of Journalism, according to a news release.
During his career, Foreman worked at the Arkansas Gazette, Pine Bluff Commercial and Arkansas Democrat. He was also a copy editor for The New York Times.
He retired from journalism in 1998 after 25 years managing newsroom operations at the Philadelphia Inquirer; he taught news editing and journalism ethics for 17 semesters at Pennsylvania State University in University Park, Pa., ending his full-time teaching career in 2006.
His residency is part of the university's Center for Media Ethics.
"Gene Foreman was the obvious first choice for the distinguished professorship," Patsy Watkins, developer of the Center for Media Ethics, said in the release. "He has a national reputation as a highly respected and ethical journalist, and is the author of a widely used textbook on media ethics that I use in my own class."
Foreman will speak to journalism classes throughout the semester.

Hunter dies after 'scuffle' with deer he shot
BY TINA SFONDELES Staff firstname.lastname@example.com November 15, 2011 8:10PM
Updated: November 16, 2011 2:45PM
(ALBION, Ind.) Authorities believe a Fort Wayne man died after his liver was lacerated during a "scufffle" with a deer he shot in an Indiana state park.
Paul J. Smith, 62, died Monday while participating in the deer reduction hunt at Chain O'Lakes State Park in Albion, Ind., a release from the Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources said.
An autopsy by the Noble County Coroner's office ruled the death was due to a lacerated liver, possibly from an encounter the hunter had with a deer he shot.
Smith called his son shortly after 9 a.m. on Monday and left a voice message that he'd shot a buck. But when Smith's son returned the call about 10:30 a.m., Smith told him that after descending from his treestand to field dress and tag the deer, he discovered the deer was still alive, the release said.
Smith told his son he "scuffled" with the deer before killing it with a knife.
Park officials were called by Smith to help in taking the deer to the check-in station.
A park employee who went to get the deer notified park officials after finding Smith unconscious and seated against a tree.
Chain O'Lakes property manager Sam Boggs and Officer Darren Reed attempted to revive Smith with a portable debibrillator but got no response. They began CPR until EMS first responders arrived but he was pronounced dead at the scene, the release said.
The coroner's autopsy revealed lacerations on Smith's liver that were in line with internal bruising, the release said. Conservation officers closed the investigation after receiving the autopsy results.
Chain O' Lakes is located in northeastern Indiana, about 40 miles southeast of South Bend and 15 miles north of Fort Wayne.
Albion is about 144 miles east of Chicago.

Recipes that work.
Cook's Illustrated is dedicated to developing foolproof recipes for America's favorite home-cooked meals. And unlike glossy cooking magazines that are staffed by food stylists, Cook's Illustrated employs test cooks, editors, and food writers. Our test kitchen — the same kitchen in which we film our top-rated public television show, America's Test Kitchen — has three dozen full-time test cooks whose 9 to 5 job (well maybe 7 to 6 on baking days) is testing and retesting recipes 20, 30, sometimes 50 times until we can offer our readers a recipe we're confident will work. Every time you make it. They are "Recipes that Work".
We also offer ratings and reviews of cookware and kitchen equipment to inform you how different models compare and compete so that you can shop smart. We taste test supermarket ingredients and kitchen staples you use every day, so you know which brands taste best, and which are best avoided. And because Cook's Illustrated is 100% advertising FREE, you get unbiased, objective information. That's our promise to you.
Many great dishes can be sped up for weekday suppers -- but not every one.
Pressure cooker enthusiasts often claim that their machines can reduce the cooking time for just about any dish, but we've found it often takes several trial runs with a given recipe before we get it just right.
We wanted to develop recipes that would allow readers to produce outstanding results right from the start, in any brand of pressure cooker.
The recipes that seemed most successful and saved us the most time were made with foods that can tolerate some overcooking, such as stews and pot roasts. But we had the most fun with risotto--by taking just a little care, you can get a pressure cooker to make risotto in just 15 minutes, with little or no stirring.

text: Glenn Close in Albert Nobbs Movies that Inspire Albert Nobbs is an upcoming film starring Glenn Close and directed by Rodrigo García. The screenplay is based on a short story by Irish novelist George Moore. Nineteenth-century Ireland was not an easy place for a single woman of no means. To keep herself from destitution's door, Albert (Glenn Close, who played the role in an off-Broadway adaptation and is one of the film's writers and producers) has spent over twenty years pretending to be a man. By now it would seem that nothing could spoil her immaculate ruse, but when a handsome painter arrives at the hotel, Albert is tempted to let the mask she's worn for so long slip away. As she investigates the possibility of getting close to the artist, Albert attempts to secure the assistance of Helen (Mia Wasikowska), one of the hotel's young maids, but Helen too is distracted — by a handsome young handyman (Aaron Johnson). Find more photos like this on OMTimes Writer's CommunityClose first played the titular character in a 1982 stage production, and spent fifteen years trying to turn it into a film. The film almost went into production in the early 2000s, with director Istvan Szabo, but the financing fell apart. In addition to her starring role, Close is also a producer and co-writer with John Banville. A Roadside Attractions (in U.S.) release presented with LD Entertainment of a Trillium Prods./Mockingbird Pictures/Parallel Films production in association with Chrysalis Films/Allen & Associates/West End Films with the participation of Canal Plus and Bord Scannan na hEireann/Irish Film Board. (International sales: WestEnd Films, London.) Produced by Glenn Close, Bonnie Curtis, Julie Lynn, Alan Moloney. Executive producers, Cami Goff, John C. Goff, Sharon Harel-Cohen, Daryl Roth, David E. Shaw. Co-executive producers, Marcia Allen, Teresa Amend, John Amend, John Eger. Directed by Rodrigo Garcia. Screenplay, Gabriella Prekop, John Banville, Glenn Close; story, Istvan Szabo, from a novella by George Moore. To learn more about Albert Nobbs, visit: http://mubi.com/films/albert-nobbs

Figured today would be a great day to try and get all 10 of the firefighters cache on the Kiel. It was very peaceful with the new snow! We enjoyed the challenge and were thankful for the snowmobile tracks so that we could walk on the packed snow.Started out as a group of 4, my better half, son, and daugther but after this one my better half and daughter decided to go back and find some caches in town. My son and I were up to the challenge so off we went. We found the first one easy enough and thought maybe these wouldn't be so bad. Turns out we were wrong.Thank you to the owners of these amazing and creative caches. TFTC

"The Incident Has Left All Westporters Its Victims"
(The following appears in the Westport News March 5, 2008)
Westport last week not only hit another low in incivility in a public meeting, but it left many who witnessed the incident visibly frightened and shaken.
Those of us who have been involved in town government over the years have seen many passionate and often raucous debates. That's part of the give and take of our democracy.
In the early 1980s, a woman even hit Zoning Board of Appeals Chair Jo Fuchs with a tomato at a meeting. But in recent years, elected volunteers have generally not feared for their safety in doing the town's business. Not anymore.
With a shooting at a public meeting in Missouri still fresh in our minds, the Feb. 26 incident at a ZBA session leaves no doubt that Westport is not immune from such possible dangers.
I outlined what happened and my response in a memo to department heads and chairs of all boards and commissions. It said:
"On Tuesday night at a Zoning Board of Appeals meeting, a member of the public became unruly, yelling obscenities at board members and acting in a threatening manner that resulted in police having to be called.
"The incident is deeply regrettable and only underscores that Westport is not immune from frightening and potentially violent outbursts at public meetings and in public places.
"I have conferred with the Westport Police Department and we will be reviewing security measures for Town Hall and for Town Hall meetings.
"I have already informed the ZBA and P&Z chairs that I and our police officials will be meeting with them and those commissioners who so desire to further discuss these measures. I will be happy to schedule similar meetings with others.
"In the meantime, I want you and all Westporters to know that from now on, we have zero tolerance for any threatening behavior in Town Hall or at public meetings.
"Clearly we will not attempt to infringe on anyone's right to make their views known at public meetings. But it must be done in a non-threatening manner. Those who engage in such behavior will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
Even before the ZBA meeting, I was asked by a member of the Planning and Zoning Commission for increased security during its forthcoming meetings on the controversial Family Y application to move to Mahackeno.
I responded that I had already requested such security and, in view of the latest incident at Town Hall, I am conferring with the Westport Police Department on additional security measures.
Controversy and Westport have long been synonymous. But clearly passions have become more pronounced recently.
Maybe it's a combination of current economic troubles, a loosening or even breakdown of civility in many aspects of our daily lives, or simple frustration with the often slow and sometimes perceived unfairness of our bureaucracy.
Whatever the reasons, they are no excuse for the kind of behavior and resulting fear that occurred last week at Town Hall. Unfortunately, the incident has left all Westporters its victims.

Osho continues:
"When he feels now he has moved too much to the left and there is fear of falling, he immediately balances himself by moving to the opposite, to the right. Passing from the left to the right, yes, there is a moment when he is in the middle. And again when he has moved too much to the right, there is fear of falling, he is losing balance, he starts moving towards the left. Passing from the right to the left, again he moves through the middle for a moment.
"This is what I mean when I say balance is not a noun but a verb – it is balancing, it is a dynamic process. You cannot be in the middle. You can go on moving from left to right and right to left; this is the only way to remain in the middle.
"Don't avoid extremes, and don't choose any one extreme. Remain available to both the polarities – that is the art, the secret of balancing. Yes, sometimes be utterly happy, and sometimes be utterly sad – both have their own beauties.
"Our mind is a chooser; that's why the problem arises. Remain choiceless. And whatsoever happens and wherever you are, right or left, in the middle or not in the middle, enjoy the moment in its totality. While happy, dance, sing, play music – be happy. And when sadness comes – which is bound to come, which is coming, which has to come, which is inevitable, you cannot avoid it – if you try to avoid it you will have to destroy the very possibility of happiness. The day cannot be without the night, and the summer cannot be without the winter, and life cannot be without death.
"Let this polarity sink deep in your being – there is no way to avoid it. The only way is to become more and more dead. Only the dead person can be in a static middle. The alive person will be constantly moving – from anger to compassion, from compassion to anger. And he accepts both. And he is not identified with either. He remains aloof and yet involved. He remains distant yet committed."

Brian McCann due back from concussion on Saturday
Aug 13, 2014, 11:34 PM EST
Yankees manager Joe Girardi told MLB.com's Bryan Hoch that he expects catcher Brian McCann to be activated off the disabled list this Saturday.
McCann was cleared to resume baseball activities Tuesday after passing another concussion test. He has been on the 7-day disabled list since August 9.
The Yankees — currently 2 1/2 games back of an American League Wild Card spot — need McCann to be much more productive down the stretch in his first year of a five-year, $85 million free agent contract.
McCann, 30, has batted just .238/.294/.384 with 13 home runs and 49 RBI through 103 games this season for New York.

I imagine that Maurice Sendak's spirit rose so fast, so high, buoyed by the collective love of the children in all of us.
My grandmother, a children's librarian in the Newark, NJ school system, knew Sendak a bit. I took the signed copy of Higglety Pigglety Pop! that has followed me since my own childhood off the shelf this morning.
I have so little family right now and I often feel rootless, cast adrift. As if I'm still sailing in and out of weeks, somewhere in between the place where the Wild Things are and Home. But I held the book in my hands, a corner of it chewed by a much-loved puppy years ago, and thought of the moment it passed from Sendak's hands and into my grandmother's. The man who wrote the book passing it to the woman who taught me to love reading. And now it sits on my son's bookshelf.
I have these books to give. I never need feel rootless at all.

URGENT: Goldfish Need Your Voice!
Hoping to draw in customers, several restaurants and bars in the U.S. are holding weekly "goldfish races"—events during which patrons armed with bottles or water guns squirt goldfish down the length of plastic gutters. Making matters worse are reports that drunken patrons have impaled some fish with cocktail straws and have swallowed others alive. We've asked these establishments to replace the cruel events with alternatives, to no avail. We need your help now!
Fish are complex beings who have personalities, communicate with each other, form bonds, and even grieve when family members and companions die. Being handled and subjected to loud noises and bright lights is a terrifying ordeal for such tiny, defenseless animals who have no opportunity to escape and who are viewed by the bar managers as expendable commodities.
Please join us in urging the following establishments to cancel these weekly events and replace them with activities that do not cause harm.

Motocross Helmets
Motocross and off-road helmets
Great buy
Fit and finish are second to none. The expression fits like a glove should be fits like a Arai Tour X4! OK bit of a mouthful but a 200 mile non-stop ride without niggling discomfort like you would get with a lesser lid makes the price tag worth it. Visor is a god send on the low in the sky sunny days and plenty of adjustable ventilation, the black sparkle paint is just darn smart!Karl Scott - Swindon
Feather light with good looks
A brilliant helmet, really comfortable, super light, without feeling cheap. Looks fantastic, a nice change from typical sports bike helmets I have. The visor has a great field of view and closes very securely. I would highly recommend this to anyone and the service here is as impressive as ever.Simon Taylor - Chippenham
Solid helmet
Very light and comfortable helmet. Big visor gives a broad view and good peripheral vision. Be careful of the top sunshade bit. My helmet toppled of my bike and it snapped. Taped back up OK but was gutted for a few days. Worth the extra bit of money compared to OK entry level helmets.Anonymous - London
