Amazon Appstore Now Accepting HTML5 Web Apps – Making It Easy For Developers To Reach Millions Of Kindle Fire And Android Customers Worldwide
(NASDAQ: AMZN) – Amazon today launched web app support in the Mobile App Distribution Program. Developers can now submit URLs for their HTML5 web apps and mobile websites and have Amazon offer that content to millions of Kindle Fire and Amazon Appstore customers in the same, convenient way as native apps. Developers can submit and distribute mobile web content without using third party software or doing any native app development, and they can take advantage of Amazon's In-App Purchasing API for JavaScript, which provides them the option to build sales of digital goods into their apps. Customers can find great new web apps in the Amazon Appstore today, including Dream Pet Link from Spil Games, and IGN Video Game Reviews, News & Previews from IGN Entertainment. Developers can get started with the Amazon Mobile App Distribution Program by visiting https://developer.amazon.com/appstore.
Web developers and content publishers have historically faced numerous challenges when building, optimizing and distributing web apps for mobile devices. Previously, third party software was needed to convert mobile web content to native apps to participate in an appstore, and on-device debugging was a challenging and necessary prerequisite for achieving strong performance on a large variety of web runtimes. Amazon is removing these roadblocks by providing the following benefits:
- Easy distribution through the Amazon Appstore: Developers submit URLs and metadata for their HTML5 web apps and mobile websites directly to the Amazon Mobile App Distribution Portal. Amazon distributes the mobile web content through the Amazon Appstore to millions of Amazon customers using Kindle Fire and Android devices in nearly 200 countries.
- Strong web app performance on Kindle Fire: Developers benefit from native-like experiences on Kindle Fire with a new, faster web runtime, based on the open-source Chromium project. The runtime supports the latest HTML5 features and includes standards-based extensions enabling developers to build a web app once and deploy it across multiple platforms without requiring platform specific changes. In addition, the new runtime includes web developer tools enabling on-device debugging on Kindle Fire.
- Great ways to make money: Amazon's proven In-App Purchasing API is now available for JavaScript. This provides web developers the ability to easily build sales of digital goods such as subscriptions, level upgrades, and digital currencies into their web apps, thereby enabling a friction-free checkout experience.
"We've heard from developers that making their web apps available for mobile devices is hard because many times it means rewriting their app, which takes extra time and often requires third party tools," said Mike George, Vice President of Amazon Appstore, Games and Cloud Drive. "By launching support for HTML5 web apps in the Mobile App Distribution Program, we're giving web developers the tools they need and all the benefits that native apps already enjoy in the Amazon Appstore and on Kindle Fire. This opens up new possibilities—starting with faster discovery, access to tools for increased monetization, and the ability to reach new customers for greater exposure."

|Custom Web Design Company :: Take Your Business Branding To The Next Level
Custom Web Design Company :: Take Your Business Branding To The Next Level
Many web designers use the word "custom" when describing their service but they rarely ever provide a true custom web design service. A custom web design company knows the difference between a custom and a non custom website. Although customers may indeed understand the term "custom", they don't always seem to know exactly what a custom web design service is. There are different ways for a custom web design company to achieve the desired look their clients want. Some web designers will use a template and customize it giving it a completely new look. Every now and then they'll find a template they like and hire a web designer to customize it. Templates also cut down on cost and time spent on the creation of a website compared to a website built from scratch. This form of custom web designing is perfect for businesses on a tight budget or in need of a fast turnaround time.
How Do You Know If You're Dealing With A True Custom Web Design Company?
Don't get me wrong the use of a website template has its benefits and there are a lot of amazing website templates out there. But is customizing a template really what custom web designing is? The way to know if you're dealing with a true custom web design company all comes down to the craftsmanship put into the creation of the websites they produce. A custom website built from scratch takes more time and work involving a combination of hand coding, graphics, company color palette, a theme related to each business the website are designed for and in most case's animated elements just to name a few. A website tailor made in this fashion is the true definition of a custom website. Business owners know all to well that it takes money to make money; but the important part about spending money on promoting or marketing is to not only get what you want but to get it done the way you want (custom). Small businesses have many other local and out of state businesses competing to get the attention of the same targeted audience so it's very important to stand out from the crowd. The same goes for a company website in order to effectively get your message, services and products in front of your target market your website needs to attract them while reflecting the uniqueness of your business.
What can a website by a custom web design company do for your business?
With a website for your business you have the ability to reach your targeted audience world wide; unlike a store location, you don't have to worry about keeping the lights on. In other words, there are no overhead costs. With a website your business is always open to potential customers online, who can learn all about your services, buy your products and more even while you sleep. Much like you would spend the time and money on marketing your brand to reflect your business in the best professional way possible your company website should be treated with the same standards and high expectations. The only way to achieve that is with a custom website. Here are a few important reasons a website by a custom web design company can improve your business brand and more…
Brand Awareness: A great way to built trust and loyal customers is by establishing brand awareness. Getting the perfect image and message across sets the tone of your business. A custom website by a custom web design company puts your brand on display for all to see.
Online Marketing: A custom website by a custom web design company give your business that wow factor; it's not enough to just have a simple/boring website with a basic layout design and. It needs to scream "We're different, unique, and we're better than the other guy."
Credibility: Show that you're serious about what you do. When hiring our custom web design company you'll get more than you pay for. You don't want to spend time driving traffic to your website only to have visitors arrive on a site that is so poorly done that they find it hard to believe it's a real business.
A Custom Web Design Company That Will Take Your Business Branding To The Next Level
We don't work from per-fabricated templates; each website is hand-crafted, one of a kind, and molded to your specific needs and those of your intended customers.

Wesley's Morris earns national D3 honor
Wesley safety Jared Morris has been named to the D3football.com Team of the Week after recording his 5th interception of the season in the Wolverines' 26-17 win over Birmingham-Southern last Saturday.
The converted wide receiver also had two tackles for loss amongst his 7 tackles, including a critical stop on an option play when Birmingham-Southern had the ball down just 19-17 in the final five minutes.
The honor is Morris' second of the season, after getting the weekly All-America nod following his school-record 4 interception performance against East Texas Baptist in the season opener.
Morris is 4th on the Wolverines with 28 tackles. Wesley faces off with Virginia University of Lynchburg Saturday at 1pm in Dover.

TORONTO – In his morning address with the media before Tuesday night's game against Toronto, Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau offered a warning for his team not to get complacent as it rode into town with a seven-game winning streak.
It wasn't complacency, he insisted, that was the issue in a 4-2 come-from-ahead loss to the Maple Leafs. It was composure, or lack of it, that did the Ducks in.
The Ducks managed to let a game totally get away against a sagging Leafs team that was coming off consecutive losses and managed just two shots on goal in the first period. Boudreau wound up seeing an uncharacteristic side he didn't like.
It made for a rough homecoming for him and some of the players who are Toronto-area natives.
"We played really good for the first 30 minutes of the game," Boudreau said. "As good as we could play. But I think the big thing is we just lost our composure for 10 minutes. We got to get it back and we'll get it back in practice tomorrow.
"Nobody likes losing. Especially in this building. We'll get out of it."
The performance was the flip side of Sunday's win over Dallas in which the Ducks spotted the Stars a two-goal lead after one period before roaring back. In this one, the Ducks were the team running around and getting away from the system.
Poor defensive coverage and bad reads fed right into a Leafs team that generates much of its offense off counter-attacks and opponent's mistakes.
"We didn't deserve to win," Teemu Selanne said. "That's the bottom line. We've got to be honest. We were up 2-0. You could see we thought it was going to be an easy game.
"We stopped playing, took a couple of penalties and the momentum changed."
A continuing issue is their abysmal 28th-ranked power play, which failed in its four chances and did nothing with a two-man advantage in the second period and the score tied at 2-2.
There is certainly stuff for the Ducks to work on as they head to Montreal for the second stop on their eight-game trip.
"We'll look at some things and try and move forward," Getzlaf said. "There's no point in getting too down. We just won seven in a row. The only goal now is to win the next one."
Emerson Etem is apparently ready for more than fourth-line duty – at least for one game.

Bastion now available in Google Chrome
Google has been ramping ups its gaming presence steadily this year, with plans to make Chrome a viable gaming destination. Those efforts got a significant shot in the arm last night with the reveal of Bastion, formerly an XBLA/PC title, now playable in Google's browser.
The game's prologue can be installed and played for free, while it'll cost $14.99 to unlock the entire RPG experience. Note that gamepad support isn't included, otherwise it runs just like the original version did.
It's funny. When I reviewed Bastion I said that it felt more like a browser-based RPG rather than a full-fledged experience. A few people got really upset with me for saying that. Well ... enjoy your browser-based RPG, folks.

Orthodoxy through another perspective
Post: #21
Dear John,
I wonder if you are using the 'quote' link, as this would create a new post with the previous post formatted as the ones you had left for me to see.
This is an interesting thread to have spent some time catching up with. In regard to a shorter liturgy. I suppose I have a few observations. On the one hand, for a Sunday liturgy, it is possible for folk to attend in Chatham at about 11am, just in time for the Gospel, and stay for the remaining 50-60 minutes. So not too long I don't think. (And we have folk who do this, especially with young children).
On the other hand, in my latter years in Evangelicalism the length of services was growing all the time. Some evening services might be nearly two hours long, with a period of praise beforehand, a lengthy sermon, and lots more singing throughout. I am not entirely comfortable with reducing the length of a service if it is only to satisfy the lack of concentration span among many modern people.
But, a little bit of research shows me that the Presanctified Liturgy was used in the Syrian tradition until the 13th century at least - and one text has the name of St Severus. And it was used, among other reasons, for those occasions when a full liturgy was inappropriate or inconvenient, and could even be celebrated with modifications by a deacon or a lone monk. Certainly we know that even in the Coptic tradition - which is strongly resistant of the reservation of the eucharistic elements - there was a normal reservation throughout the early period, which perhaps ceased due to the threat of Islamic desecration of the elements.
A Presanctified liturgy would indeed be useful, but we don't have access to such a practice. I am doing a liturgy tonight, and will be welcoming two British folk into the catechumenate, but the 3 or 4 of us will be at Church for 2 hours, which does not always and in all circumstances mean that we will be twice as reverent and worshipful as if we were there for 1 hour.
In regard to how I perceive the disconnect between what I expected of Orthodoxy and what I have found. I would say that I have reached a happy place where I embrace the humility and poverty of the British Orthodox Church, such that there is nothing there for us other than Christ in the eucharist and in each other. We have nothing else to offer people. There is no cathedral choir. There are a no gold plated roccoco decorations. When you visit us you find a handful of friendly people worshipping God. We offer ourselves to God and to each other.
I guess I have also come to embrace the notion of 'total uselessness' rather than 'total depravity'. There was and will be no golden age of the Church when everything was wonderful. On the contrary it has always been as human and provisional and corruptible as it is now. Therefore there is no need to fear the future or despair of the present. It has always been like this and yet the Church survives.
In 516AD it seemed that the anti-Chalcedonian position had finally prevailed. There were anti-Chalcedonian patriarchs in Constantinople, Antioch and Alexandria. The emperor was sympathetic. Then in 518AD it had all changed. Patriarchs, bishops and monks were expelled. St Severus finds exile in Egypt. Yet the Church survives. In the time of St Cyril there was constant ecclesial stress. In the time of St Athanasius he spent much of his episcopate in exile. St Dioscorus dies in prison. St Timothy of Alexandria spends much of his episcopate far from home. Yet the Church survives.
It will survive these present times. It will survive our humble circumstances. Because we, in the BOC, are not the whole Church. We are one small community of a wider community of millions of faithful Christians in a variety of places and cultures who are all facing the ever present challenge of being fully Orthodox while being fully <add your ethnicity>. Our ethnicities are always a moving target, and so we must always be seeking to be genuinely Orthodox to our present and not to our past.
In my own experience I would suggest that what would be useful would be a good-quality proper Western musical setting of the Raising of Incense and the Liturgy. It is not unpleasant at all, but I would like it to have the sense of something which was a little more musical. I would also like (and this is something within my power) a greater sense of the calendar through the year. Perhaps also a better use of a few Western hymns, especially those of genuine antiquity, and also the setting to Western tunes of some others of the Eastern hymns. Also a proper and comprehensive program to develop a liturgical synaxarium (not just a book of saints) which rooted us in our own Western ecclesial heritage as well as the Alexandrian and universal heritage.
I have no great interest in the Western Rite project - since I do not come from a liturgical background at all. But I am interested in Western Orthodoxy - if that means an Orthodoxy which is naturally at home in the West of the 21st century, and not that of Anglicanism in the 19th century. It seems to me that generally Orthodoxy becomes properly inculturated by modifying what is received rather than starting from scratch. So I am not so interested at all in thinking of an Orthodoxy from scratch. But I do think that language and music are key to culture.
As ever
Father Peter

Leroy Blowout (PA): Just Another "Unintended Return"?
1 comment:
Another "unintended return"? It sounds like you inadvertently returned a Christmas gift to K-Mart, but you hadn't MEANT to return THAT gift. No, they hadn't INTENDED to ruin another stream with muddy sludge- it just HAPPENED. Well, until these blunders stop happening for at least a week, I'd like to see NY hold off on fracking. It is not an exact enough science yet, OBVIOUSLY. They are ruining the countryside and for what? For extra salaries for the CEOs of the gas companies and not much gas at all. What are these people thinking? Do they have no love for their children and grandchildren? Do they WANT their future family members to grow up in the sludge left behind from fracking? Personally, I believe that the CEOs do not care about anybody except themselves- they want big money and they want it now and to heck with the consequences paid by others.

The Lost And Found Of Coachella 2014 [22 Photos]
With around 90,000 people attending each day of the 2014 Coachella Festival, there's a good chance that a few things would be left behind. The good news is that the swell folks out there in California have collected and documented everything they found and have put the info up on the Coachella website. The bad news is that you only have 3 months to claim your stuff before it's donated to charity. There are plenty of car keys, prescription glasses, and digital cameras, but the most incredible find has to be the birth certificate from Pakistan. It seems like if you brought your foreign birth certificate to a music festival, you must have had a really good reason. And leaving without it probably caused you lots of trouble. So if you lost your Pakistani birth certificate or a cool flask with an anchor on it, be sure to claim your junk at Coachella Lost and Found.

BROWNING - Many Blackfeet Tribal members are seeing relief with checks going out on Friday.
Tribal employees and members who get federal assistance haven't received payments since late November due to a divided Blackfeet Tribal Business Council.
On Thursday night, Willie Sharp Jr, Forrestina Calf Boss Ribs, Shannon Auguare, Leonard Guardipee, Earl Old Person, and Roger Running Crane signed off to unfreeze the bank account and authorize the release of payments.
Council members report that Tribal employees and members immediately began receiving their money on Friday; this included two payrolls for Tribal employees.
Much of the recent dispute that held up signing off on the bank papers surrounded the issue of which Blackfeet Tribal Business Council members were legal and which were not.
Council member Leonard Guardipee said those six members plan to meet Monday morning to discuss how to prevent this from happening again. They will also talk about getting per capita payments out to all tribal members.
Once the six meet, Guardipee said they plan to invite in the other three council members, Cheryl Little Dog, Paul McEvers, and Bill Old Chief.

A few months back I was reviewing my daily email from Etsy and came across an adorable bracelet advertised that was from Hand World. I just had to have it! So I clicked right over to their Etsy shop and pretty much ended up falling in love with everything!
I ended up purchasing my fair share of bracelets from them that day! They have an array of single and multi strand bracelets. I bought a variety of different bracelets and wear them together with each other and also on their own. I love the "charms" on them- anchors, infinity symbols, arrows, crosses, birds… So many options! I think that's why I bought so many!
I wish that I knew more about the artist- I'm sad to say that the profile is fairly private on Etsy. It was a pleasure doing business with Hand World and my order arrived promptly! The artist surely doesn't know I am such a huge fan, but hopefully now they will! I have to say that the price point for the bracelets are VERY reasonable!
Since I purchased so many bracelets, I wanted to share with you these adorable bracelets and give you an opportunity to win one! This bracelet is out of my own personal collection and has yet to be worn! Would you like to wear this awesome bracelet?

I'm not gonna miss this at all. Friend codes were an abomination.
yes Yes YES
This looks fantastic. Going to clean up my backlog first, then I'll get it.
Looking forward to the review.
I remember this! I played this for a little bit a few years ago and I could never really get into it.
Set for life!
The basics: The new Zelda and Mario games. I'm loving both of them. 3D World especially. That game looked so boring when it first was revealed. I never thought it would exceed my expectations like it did.
But I want to finish up Tomb Raider (2013) on PS3 before Infocus my attention on Zelda. Not sure how much I have left. Might also play some Grand Theft Auto V Online with my friend tonight.
Why would they put this game on a handheld without online in 2013? How many people have 3 other 3DS's laying around?
Just plain stupid. I like the series, but I'm skipping this one.
Dat GameCube.
This page has too many comments.
Friday night, I was watching a basketball game. During one commercial break, an X1 ad came on. Literally, the NEXT ad was the Taco Bell PS4 promotion. Their commercials are so frequent it's ridiculous.
I saw a Wii U ad once during it's launch. Nintendo needs to get rid of their marketing team.
I have all of these.
Can't imagine Jon actually dancing to this game.
I've wanted to play this for awhile. I need to get it sometime.
No complaints here. One of the best games I've played.
I'm getting this. Can't wait.
My copy of Arkham Origins arrived today. Played a little of that.
Looks to be an interesting parody game. I'm definitely getting it.
I am so hyped for this. PS3 version for me.
This is perfect. I love my systems in Black. I need to upgrade to an XL but the PS4 and the holiday rush are approaching. I don't know if my wallet can take it.
They are saying all the right things. I think after the holiday rush, I'll be this game.
Really considering picking this up, but there's already too many games to get this holiday season.
Wow, I remember when they first announced this. They should just port it to the Wii U.
Yes we need this!
Some of you guys here are acting like you were never kids before. It's a light-hearted debate featuring a user on the site. Can't you all be nice?
I'm really liking the Super Mario Galaxy influences in this game. If I have any spare change after the holiday rush, I may download it.
I thought that was a Random Access Memories reference.
Deer god! If I had a buck for everytime I heard a bad pun...
I'd buy it!
I signed the petition that's going around. Iwata really needs to stop with the BS. The competition is allowing it, why shouldn't Nintendo?
Lol this is gold!
It's been so long, I don't think they really need to add anything new. Make it run at 60fps at 1080p. That will make me more than happy.
I would really love to see him make it.
Nintendo automatically won E3 with the reveal of this character.
@BanjoTooie: Hasn't Sonic always been "cartoony"? Lol
My Best Buy is missing out.
6 characters? 6 different areas on the world behind them. Hmmm.
I would've like to watch but I had school.
Arkham City is my favorite PS3 game, so you know I'm hyped for this. October can't come soon enough.
The how Direct can be 1 minute long with just Smash Bros., and I'll still be the happiest person that day.
I remember Backbone. They made those Sonic Rivals games...
Yeah I can see why Sega didn't go ahead with the project.
This one is definitely in my Top 5 WiiWare games. Praying that they make a sequel with more content!
Awesome! I may go with the iOS version, seeing as the iPad touch screen is better suited for these type of games, but glad to know it's close to getting released on the 3DS.
Wasn't there a Mobile app in the works for iOS/Android? Or am I imagining things?
I've put over 100 hours into this game. Everyone with a 3DS needs to buy this!
Finally some news! Really liked the first game. Hopefully we can see some footage soon.
I'll probably get the iOS version, but its nice to see the its doing well on Kickstarter so far.
Ok, this looks really cool. If it makes it to the eShop I will buy this.

It's not as high profile as Elton John's Princess Diana tribute, but Arlington-based singer-songwriter Doug Fitch is making waves with his own homage to the late John Denver.
Mr.Fitch wrote and sings "Fly-A Tribute To John Denver," a ballad performed in the same acoustic-oriented, pop-folk style Mr. Denver mastered.
The song was first played Oct. 21 on KVIL-FM (103.7) by Ron Chapman from a home project studio demo tape Mr. Fitch delivered to the station.
"The first thing [that caught my ear] was the sound of his voice," says Mr. Chapman. "He has a natural singing voice that is hauntingly like John Denver's. It's not an impersonation, it's the way he sings. The first three or four notes of it took my breath away. Then as I listened to the song I thought, 'It is a good song!'"
Mr. Chapman liked it so much he called Mr. Fitch and suggested he re-record the song at a professional studio.
"It was a real good demo," the DJ says, "but if we are going to play it on the air, we wanted it to be as compatible with the other things we play as possible. Within 48 hours, we had the studio, the musicians and the arrangement. We love the end results. It would sound good on any radio station in the country."
Listeners to KVIL/103.7 FM have been hearing a new tune this week - a tribute to John Denver by Arlington singer-songwriter Doug Fitch.
And next week, due to overwhelming demand, "Fly A Tribute To John Denver" will be available for purchase - much to the happy surprise of the man who wrote it just after Denver's Oct 12 death in a plane crash off the California coast.
"It was something I felt I had to do - John Denver was my idol, my reason for picking up a guitar," says Fitch. He gave it to KVIL's drive time host Ron Chapman on Tuesday.
"It shocked me," says Chapman. "He sounds just like John Denver and it has a John Denver feel but it's not a copy. I played it twice and decided to give it a try [Wednesday] and the response was unending."
Amazon interviews Doug
Actually, from the sound of his full-length debut Givin in to the Night, Fitch is a sweet, spiritual man with a talent for writing sad country ballads. Mixed with the songs of love lost, cheatin hearts, and lonely nights are heartwarming songs of love to his family. Candles and Ice Cream even features an exchange at the end between Fitch and his young son Jacob that reminds me of the ending of Helen Reddys You and Me Against the World.
Hes got an earnest and strong voice. His vocal style is reminiscent of his biggest musical influence, John Denver, but his voice is completely his own. He strains a bit on the high notes, sounding at his best when he keeps it in a lower range. His country voice is a perfect match for his honest, often vulnerable lyrics. I Cant Live With You, a duet with Kathy Kersey, is a conflicted conversation sung just as youd imagine the characters would speak. I cant live with you, but I never want to live without you. Tell me now, what are we going to do?
The most amazing track, the one that actually brought tears to my eyes, was Fitchs tribute to John Denver, Fly. As a way of saying thanks for the musical inspiration, Fitch offers this song as a gift and puts everything he has into it. A string quartet gives the music an ethereal sound. The lyrics speak from the heart: I never realized just how much we had in common, a love of flight, a dream to touch the sky. Fitch even sounds like Denver when he sings this, although hes not attempting to imitate him.

Easy to make Garlic steak. The parm topping helps cut the garlic but I think it's a little to heavy on a good rib-eye. In other words why waste a good steak!!!!!

Whoa! My husband thought I was a goddess tonight when I made this. The flavors just work perfectly without any one overpowering the other--prep time was minimal and the recipe is perfect as is with no need for tweaking... It looks beautiful when plated --I will definitely put this on our list of favorites!

In December, the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute released a survey of Milwaukeeans' opinion on Milwaukee Public Schools. The results give us a window into what people are thinking, but the survey clearly shows contradictions and that the public may know a lot less about our schools is necessary to make informed decisions.
Part of the problem is that many citizens have little connection to the educational system. When asked "How many children under 18 years old live in this household," 57.7 percent responded "none." That number doesn't include parents who may have very young children who are not attending any school. So the number of respondents who do not have children of school age could easily be over 60 percent. Sure, there are a lot of individuals who keep themselves well informed on educational issues even if they don't have children in school, but consider how they answered the question of charter schools.
When asked if there were any charter schools here in Milwaukee, an astounding 10.7 percent said "no," and 27.5 percent didn't know or refused to answer. Given the amount of press on charter schools, it is hard to feel confident in the public's knowledge of public education when nearly 40 percent of the respondents don't know there are charter schools in this community.
So when are asked "From what you know, do you favor or oppose Milwaukee's school choice program?" the public responded "Favor," I have to ask, just what is the public actually saying? Are they referring to the school voucher program? Open enrollment? The MPS three choice procedure? Or all of the above?
When asked if Milwaukee schools needs fine-tuning or a major overhaul, 60.5 percent said, "Major overhaul." So you would think the public is ready for a lot of major reforms, and you would be dead wrong.
What the public wants to do is throw lots of money at the problem, 62.7 percent. And hire a lot more teachers and pay them higher salaries.
Should we fire bad teachers or close failing schools? Not on your life. Instead let us provide more support for teachers (67.3 percent) and more support for failing schools (55.1 percent).
How about a longer school day and school year? Almost two-thirds said they were against a longer school day, and don't even ask if it means higher taxes. Nearly 70 percent were against paying more taxes for a longer school day, and 64.6 percent said the school year is long enough.
So just what major overhaul would the public support? It is really hard to tell. The answer seems to be to do everything schools are doing now – just do things better.
Politically, the WPRI is right of center supporting school choice and less supportive of teacher unions . So the WPRI may have been pleased with the public supporting school choice, but the public is also pretty traditional supporting teacher unions and existing public education.
We can't fault the public too much for their lack of understanding of a number of educational issues. After all, education is just one of many issues people have to juggle in their daily lives. In the end, public opinion surveys are only surveys. They can't be used, in and of themselves to decide public policy. In the end, leaders have to lead. The WPRI survey is useful, but it can't be used to tell us what to do with our public schools.

Orange cell phone services, a company in Switzerland that provides data packages to youth for a discounted rate, recently released this brilliantly vibrant advertisement promoting its data plan for people under 27.
In this ad, large groups of young people converge on a single meeting point as the background music states "The world is in our hands." As the beat kicks in, all the young people quickly throw up their hands and out comes bursts of colorful powder. Purple, orange, yellow, green and red all paint the sky above them and they all mix together creating a mosaic.
Although this Orange cell phone ad is for a simple data plan, the concept could have easily worked for some sort of humanitarian effort as well.

5 Arnold Training Tips
Stop overcomplicating your workout routines. Here are 5 tried and true exercises that Arnold used to build himself into "The Oak".
By Ted Hammond
After you've mastered these essential Arnold favorites be sure to check out 5 more Arnold training tips!
Front Squat
While this exercise is a bit tricky to master, Arnold knew that all variations of the squat were useful to master because each worked the leg musculature slightly differently, and he could optimize overall muscle mass by including each in his workout at some point. With the front squat, the center of gravity is forward and the muscular tension falls more directly on the quadriceps.
Though shown here with a board under his heels, which Arnold felt helped improve his balance, this move can also be done on a flat floor. Hold the barbell in place across your front delts by elevating your arms, forming a "shelf" from which the bar be secured. Cross your arms and grasp the bar with your hands to control it. Maintaining a flat back and looking forward – not up – descend into a deep knee bend. Without bouncing out of the bottom position, explode upward and press your hips forward to full knee and hip extension. Practice it with light weight first to get the hang of doing it correctly before moving on to more challenging weights.

Fender® '59 Bassman®
Fender amps of the '50s and '60s are beloved and coveted by guitarists around the world. Thanks to BOSS' technology and tone know-how, the new FBM-1 brings the natural, fat, rich, bright tone of the Fender Bassman to a BOSS pedal. In conjunction with Fender, the new BOSS FBM-1 recreate the legendary tone of 1959 Fender Bassman. Features include the same controls on the original Bassman: Presence, Treble, Mid, and Bass EQ controls. The FBM-1 also functions perfectly as a "pre-gain pedal" placed before an already overdriven amp to add the tone character of the Bassman.

Recently by Mark Sisson: How To Cultivate Resilience, or What It Takes To Keep on Keeping On
It's Friday, everyone! And that means another Primal Blueprint Real Life Story from a Mark's Daily Apple reader. If you have your own success story and would like to share it with me and the Mark's Daily Apple community please contact me here. I'll continue to publish these each Friday as long as they keep coming in. Thank you for reading!
Hi, I'm Rio. I'm 29 years old and I've been Primal since October 2011. I'd like to say that since then I've lost 25 kgs (55 lbs) and have a visible 6-pack. However, that for me is not the case. My story is still successful, but it is more a story of persistence.
I'll start with the usual. I've been overweight my whole life even though I was an active child/teenager/young adult. Mum used to put "healthy" food on the table with a few treats on the weekend, but I was still painted with the "big girl" label. Unfortunately, the healthy food consisted of bread, pasta, potatoes and grain-based snacks. I started Weight Watchers when I was 12 years old. I was 72 kilos (158 lbs). Since then I feel like my life has been a perpetual cycle of "feeling naughty" and depriving myself. I have tried the weird and wacky diets (such as the soup diet) and more depressingly the CW "eat healthy and exercise" diet. I worked my butt off at the gym, ate low fat, and calorie-counted to within an inch of my life, and still I never saw the numbers I hoped for. I gave up time and time again, only getting heavier at the end of every attempt. I felt like a failure. At the end of 2010 I was 87 kgs (191 lbs) (I'm only 156 cm (5′ 1?)) and felt huge. I was also due to get married in April 2011. I always thought that my wedding would be the time when I would finally lose the weight and I thought up until now that my early attempts hadn't worked because I didn't have the ultimate motivation. I so wanted to be a thin and beautiful bride, so I hopped on the "eat right and exercise wagon" again, and again I was disappointed and devastated…I was, after all my efforts, going to be a chubby bride. My wedding was a wonderful day, because I married the love of my life, but I'll always look back with a tinge of regret over my size.
In August 2011 after returning from our honeymoon and ballooning yet again to 87-88 kgs (191 to 193 lbs) and feeling miserable and fat, I thought to try a different approach and booked in for 12 Hypoxi sessions which were incredibly expensive (around $700 for 12 sessions). Hypoxi treatments consist of cycling gently for 30 minutes with your lower body encased in a pressurised chamber which applies and releases pressure as you cycle. The theory is that the pressure mobilises your body fat into the blood stream, so that you can magically cycle it away. Far fetched? Kinda. The Hypoxi team set you up with a list of suggested foods to "eat and not eat" which consisted of eating good fresh food and avoiding refined carbs and potatoes 2 hours after a Hypoxi session. I thought I'd better follow the eating plan since I was paying so much money for the treatments.
Surprisingly, I lost a good chunk of weight and centimeters around my body and looking back it was really my first introduction into the Primal lifestyle – low carb and gentle exercise (compared to the approaching-chronic-cardio exercise regime I was used to). Not convinced it was the Hypoxi treatments that caused the weight loss on its own, I started to research low-carb diets when someone posted a link to Mark's Daily Apple to a Facebook page I am a member of. Once I started reading the articles and information on your site I was instantly hooked. I downloaded The Primal Blueprint and devoured it in a few days. I started eating Primal and my energy levels improved instantly…I couldn't believe it! I'd gone from being tired and listless all day (falling asleep on the couch around 8 pm every night) to bounding out of bed in the morning and not feeling tired until 10 pm that night, with none of lethargy through the day (which I had started to think was "normal"). With little effort I lost 5 kilos (11 lbs). I felt great!
Since those initial 5 kilos the weight loss has been slow, but still on the decline. I've lost about 15 kgs (33 lbs) and 17 cm (7 inches) from my waist since my initial Hypoxi session. My measurements are also still decreasing. What is more amazing is that the shape of my body is changing. I've lost 10 kgs (22 lbs) before on the "eat healthy and exercise regime," and sure I got smaller, but my body shape didn't change all that much. This time my waist is visually smaller, nipped in at the sides, arms, and legs.

Breaking News: Artspace Coming to Patchogue September 2010
Author: Long Island Pulse | Published: Thursday, July 02, 2009
County Executive Steve Levy and Patchogue Mayor Paul Pontieri Move Forward on Innovative Downtown Housing Initiatives
The county legislature approved two resolutions last week that will allow the county to acquire properties for the development of Artspace, on Terry Street, which will provide 45 units of studio/living space for artists—and for New Village, which will replace the former Swezey's department store on the town's Four Corners and will include 240 rental units.
"Patchogue has already set the standard for downtown revitalization with such projects as Copper Beech Village and the renovation of the Patchogue Theatre, and the addition of Artspace and New Village will bring further energy into the village," said Levy.
The national not-for-profit organization Artspace, working with the Village of Patchogue and Suffolk County, will construct 45 units for local artists which will serve as living and work space, on property on Terry Street. The development will also include 2,500 square feet of commercial space for arts and community organizations.
Suffolk's acquisition of nine small properties between Main Street and Lake Street will allow the proposed New Village development to move forward. The $130 million project, located on the site of the former Swezey's Department Store on Patchogue's famous Four Corners, will include a 111-room hotel, 30,000 square feet of retail space, 20,000 square feet of office space and 240 rental units – 67 of which will be for those at 85% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI) as determined by HUD ($69,190 for a two-person household). Developers said all of the rental units will be for those at 120% or less of the AMI.

Fantastic! The culture of a community is in the hands of the artists. The culture of a community is what adds value to a place. A place with no culture loses value. Over priced real estate has made for and "exodus" of young aspiring artists on Long Island. Carolinas, Seattle, and even NYC are destination points where artists can find community and affordable living.
This is a tremendous step in giving artists a chance to contribute to the culture of Long Island while not needing 8 jobs on the side to pay for rent, or a ridiculous 450,000 mortgage.
Hats off to this project, it is truly inspiring!
This is the first time I have ever heard of such a thing, in all my 38 years! I tip my fedora to the town of Patchogue!
This is amazing… long Island really needs something like this and I hope that this idea and type of thinking spreads throughout Long Island… We def need more places like this!
Thats really amazing,as an artist I applaude this and pary it could be done allover Long Island.
This is absolutely exciting! I'm in!
Wow, I'd really like to have a chance at that!
This is super cool! I am an art student and am looking forward to having a chance at this!
I wish that this could be done all throughout Long Island. Riverhead really needs a revival. Maybe someday soon…
Wow! This is so exciting! This is exactly what our local Patchogue artists need.
Awesome! As an artist, I think that this a great idea!!

(n.)the removal for diagnostic study of a piece of tissue from a living body.
Category: Medicine
a specimen obtained from a biopsy.
Category: Medicine

The removal and examination of a sample of tissue from a living body for diagnostic purposes.
To take a sample (a biopsy) for pathological examination.
They biopsied the lump but it turned out to be non-cancerous.
Origin: From biopsie.
A biopsy is a medical test commonly performed by a surgeon or an interventional radiologist involving sampling of cells or tissues for examination. It is the medical removal of tissue from a living subject to determine the presence or extent of a disease. The tissue is generally examined under a microscope by a pathologist, and can also be analyzed chemically. When an entire lump or suspicious area is removed, the procedure is called an excisional biopsy. When only a sample of tissue is removed with preservation of the histological architecture of the tissue's cells, the procedure is called an incisional biopsy or core biopsy. When a sample of tissue or fluid is removed with a needle in such a way that cells are removed without preserving the histological architecture of the tissue cells, the procedure is called a needle aspiration biopsy.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
Removal and pathologic examination of specimens in the form of small pieces of tissue from the living body.

NPC legacy site
From 15th May 2012, the team delivering the work of the NPC will form the NICE Medicines and Prescribing Centre and will sit alongside the Clinical Guidelines team within the Centre for Clinical Practice.
The NICE Medicines and Prescribing Centre will continue to provide resources which aim to support healthcare professionals and organisations in the safe and effective use of controlled drugs, in line with regulatory changes and best practice. However, there will be some changes to the way in which these resources are produced and published going forward, as part of the overall work delivered by NICE.
All future Medicines and prescribing outputs, including those on Controlled Drugs, will be published on the NICE website and signposted from the Medicines and prescribing homepage.
In addition, there will also be changes to the protected area of the website used by Controlled Drug Accountable Officers (CDAOs) and individuals nominated by CDAOs to access additional resources, share resources with peers and participate in a dedicated discussion group. These changes will not take effect immediately upon the launch of the Medicines and Prescribing Centre. Therefore, access to the current protected area of the website will continue until further notice.
Although no new Medicines and prescribing content will be published to the NPC legacy website, the extensive catalogue of existing publications, resources and e-learning materials will still be available to view and download for as long as the information contained within them remains accurate and up-to-date.
Resources and information will be of value to all those involved in the management and prescribing of controlled drugs.In addition Accountable Officers and individuals nominated by Accountable Officers are able to log into a protected area of this website to access additional resources, share resources with peers and participate in a dedicated discussion group.

|Pharmacist independent prescribers to prescribe any schedule 2-5 controlled drugs for any medical condition, within their clinical competence
|Nurse and pharmacist independent prescribers, and supplementary prescribers when within the terms of a clinical management plan, to mix controlled drugs for administration and provide written directions for others to do so
|These changes do not apply to the prescribing of cocaine, diamorphine or dipipanone for the treatment of addiction (this is restricted to Home Office licensed doctors).
|Registered nurses and pharmacists to supply or offer to supply morphine or diamorphine under a PGD for the immediate and necessary treatment of a sick and injured person in any setting
