LINCS now accepts projects year-round. Contact us if you have any questions.
The application review process
ITVS staff review and evaluate application materials. If your project is recommended for funding, additional materials will be requested and we will schedule a meeting to discuss your project further.
The entire proposal review and recommendation process takes six to eight weeks.
Timetable for LINCS Funding
- Applicants must fill out and submit the online application form that will serve as a cover sheet to include with the application materials. All required materials must be received before the project can be reviewed.
- Applicants will receive notification by email within approximately eight weeks.
- If you are recommended for funding, a meeting will be scheduled to discuss your project in more detail.
Program funding selection
Programs are selected and funded through a license fee for public television broadcast. The detailed ITVS guidelines for funding explain the process and criteria for program selection. Decisions are based on the merits of a proposed project and at the discretion of ITVS professional staff. Decisions on program selection are made solely by ITVS, which is an independent nonprofit corporation and not within the control of any other public or private entity.
Production and distribution of ITVS funded programs
LINCS funding is not a grant. In exchange for funding and services, the producer grants ITVS the exclusive U.S. television broadcast rights. The producer is required to deliver a completed program that meets U.S. broadcast standards. Other contract points, including theatrical rights and revenue sharing, are negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
Here are some additional things to know about working with ITVS if you are funded through LINCS:
Content and control
- In keeping with ITVS's mandate, the independent producer maintains editorial, creative and financial control over the project.
- Both ITVS staff and station staff will give editorial input on rough and fine cuts to help make the show the best it can be. This input is one of the advantages to working with a station, in that station staff have considerable insight into what makes a good program for public television and what will make it compelling to PTV programmers and viewers.
- Input is given in the spirit of collaboration, which is the heart of the LINCS initiative, but ultimately final editorial and creative control over the piece rests with the independent producer.
- The finished show must ultimately reflect what was originally proposed. The proposal becomes part of the ITVS contract, thus preventing major deviations from the proposal in the final show.
- The on-screen credit for LINCS shows reflects the partnership between the station and producer. A typical credit reads: "a co-production of Jane Producer, ITVS, and WXYZ."
- In the credit roll, the independent is credited as director or producer. ITVS, and often the station, will get an executive producer credit.
- For LINCS shows, presentation and promotion are the responsibility of the station partner, often in collaboration with the independent producer. This includes sending the show to PBS and making it available to the PTV system if PBS turns it down. These services should count towards the station's in-kind contribution.
- Because many stations have limited resources, LINCS producers sometimes raise additional funds to pay for websites, publicity, and outreach campaigns. ITVS staff is available for consultation in all of these areas, but the responsibility ultimately lies with the station and producer. An exception to this rule is if the show is picked up by either P.O.V, Independent Lens, or other series, in which case the series presenters will take responsibility for presenting and publicizing the show.
- Our mission is to present works for television and not for theatrical release. We allow producers to pursue theatrical distribution on a case-by-case basis if the opportunity arises.
- We review modes of distribution contracts to ensure they meet CPB requirements and do not infringe on ITVS's rights. Most ITVS-funded projects have success in the festival, educational video, home video, and foreign broadcast markets.
Financial reporting
- ITVS requires periodic financial reporting, and it must be able to withstand an audit. Each year ITVS randomly selects a number of projects for auditing. Every funded producer is assigned a member of the production staff who works with them to review financial and narrative reports and other deliverables. The production department representative will also be in dialogue about the program and its progress.

and I started the bleeding today... and with it, my symptoms are starting to finally fade. My principal was really sweet and took my worst class for me today. She was supposed to be covering a 2nd grade reading class and traded me for the 7th graders. I hugged her... I couldn't handle the stress of them today (not only a pregnant girl, but it's at the "alternative" school and we have fights break out all the time...)
I keep trying to think of it as just AF, but it's hard when it's more than just blood. This is strange, but will I see the sac/embryo? It would only be the size of an appleseed, but I have this morbid curiosity and desire to see it
I was a bit further along than you, so I'm not sure if you'll be able to see anything (I certainly did at 10 weeks). You can say good bye to each bit of tissue, just to be sure.
This is so hard, my heart breaks for you. Good luck, and my thoughts are with you today. I'm happy your principal is being so supportive, you are very lucky.

Drake Fires PR Firm for 'YOLO' Mistakes
On his way to the club to make it rain with $73. YOLO, indeed.
Being the publicist of an idiot celebrity is nothing more than a logo and cash grab. Where's the fulfillment in constantly being pressured to cover someone's tracks because he or she can't cover his or her mouth?
Take this fool, Drake.
Reports have come out via Billboard that Drake and ID-PR have parted ways because of the now infamous (and all-too-classy-response) Rolling Stone cover story that was to feature the doltish "singer/rapper" but instead this Philip Seymour Hoffman had to go take heroin and die. Hoffman gets the cover. Drake thought he was snubbed.
And the rest is after the jump (and there's more where that came from)…

WD Hard Drive Failure or Motherboard?
Hi all,
I was wondering if you could provide me with some feedback on a hard drive issue that started when I booted up my pc yesterday. Hard Drive is WD 160GB SATA.
I received this error at boot up:
Read Disk Error CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart
I restarted and luckily I was able to get to the desktop (took longer then normal tho).
Checked Event Viewer.. nothing showed. Checked Performance Logs... no errors showed.
Decided to double check all the connections... all plugged in nice and secure. Rebooted. Got the Read Disk Error again. this time it took me 3x to get to desktop. I decided to try another SATA connection on motherboard. REbooted.... got error again.
I ran a chkdsk/r and when system rebooted the Read Disk error showed up again.
After another 3 ctrl+alt+del reboots... I was able to get into Windows. I downloaded the Diagnostic Tools from WD and my drive failed both the Quick and Extended Tests. Not surprising lol
Anyhoo, here is a screenshot of my WD Diagnostic test results. I was wondering if it was a HDD issue or a motherboard issue? Any thoughts? I would rather replace a HDD then a motherboard. This WD 160 SATA drive is less then a month old also. BIOS sees the hard drive.also tried setting BIOS back to default.... sometimes that works but not this time tho :-(
I think I am living on borrowed time with this HD but before I replace I wanted to get more opnions.
Thx for the input

Did you create the bootable CD ? ?
The results are more accurate then running it inside Windows.
Also you should be running the Long test.

Did you try swapping the sata cable itself? I recently had a HD that failed to boot because of a dodgy cable.
+1 outside Windows and Long test.

Stupid question from me:
Is SMART enabled in the bios? worth a check.
|My System Specs
|10 Mar 2009
I did a quick and a long test.... I also used bootable CD and failed all tests. I thought about swapping out SATA cables... havent tried that yet. Luckily I had a Seagate SATA HD to use. No Read Disk errors with this one yet. SMART is disabled in BIOS. (BIOS default) should I enable it??

RMA the drive for a replacement.
|My System Specs
|18 Mar 2009
hi all,
just an update:
I swapped out SATA cables and computer booted with no errors. I decided to test both SATA cables and HDD.
I installed XP on the 160GB drive and used the SATa cable that came with my Seagate... no errors during install... XP booted up great. So I decided to swap SATA cables again and no errors at all and quick boots! So I am unsure if my WD 160 GB HDD is actually defective. Maybe I had corrupt Windows 7 files because XP installed and booted several times with no issues. either way, system up and running with minimal issues. Windows 7 boots up and runs great on the Seagate 500Gb so if it aint broke don't fix it lol
|My System Specs
|18 Mar 2009
Windows XP-Pro-SP3, Windows 7
May I recount my own experience with the same drive?
My first SATA HD was a WD 160 gig SATA hard drive.
I only bought it because of the low price at the time.
Normally I'd never buy a WD drive.
Well, after only a couple of months of use, the first drive failed.
I RMA'd it and installed the replacement. It lasted three months and then shot craps while I was on-line. It was so hot when I removed it that it burned my fingers.
Another RMA, but this third one was so scratched up that it looked like it had been kicked across a cement floor.
I had already replaced that drive with a new Maxtor 160 gig SATA2, so I gave the third WD away to a friend, to use for a storage drive. It lasted all of six months. When it failed, he just threw it away.
In a years time I replace a lot of HD's (in my computer business) from all sorts of systems. I'd have to guess that about 75% of them are WD's.
WD drives are a favorite with PC makers, NOT because of their High quality, but because of their LOW price.
Replace that WD drive with a Maxtor or Seagate while you can still save your data. And if you get an RMA drive, give it away to someone you really don't like.
Cheers Mate!

Unfortunately a lot of once trusted manufacturers are slipping with quality It's turning into a crap shoot whether your individual drive is good or bad.

The estimated age of the rock fish – 95 to 115 years – is toward the upper end of the known age limit for shortraker rockfish, according to the Alaska Fisheries Science Center.
A British Columbia study put the maximum age at 120 years. A Gulf of Alaska study placed the maximum age at 157 years.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- A commercial fishing boat has pulled up what could have been one of the oldest creatures in Alaska - a giant rockfish estimated to be about a century old.
The 44-inch, 60-pound female shortraker rockfish was caught last month by the catcher-processor Kodiak Enterprise, owned by Trident Seafoods, south of the Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea.
The 275-foot, Seattle-based vessel was trawling for pollock at 2,100 feet. On one drag, the ship's big net pulled up an estimated 75 tons of pollock plus 10 bright-orange rockfish.
Crewmen alerted Michael Myers, factory manager of the Kodiak Enterprise. He has fished in the Bering Sea since 1988 but never saw a rockfish that big.
Myers is a regular at show and tell time at his sons' school. He immediately thought that he'd save the fish for federal researchers - after the elementary school children got a look at it.
"I thought, 'They're going to love that,"' he said from his home in Marysville, Wash.
Myers ordered the big rockfish to be frozen whole.
The day after he got back to Washington, he brought the big fish to Immaculate Conception Our Lady of Perpetual Help School in Everett. Other than one preschooler who was frightened by the fish, the reaction ranged from "cool" to "eeew," Myers said.
That was subdued, Myers said, compared to the reaction by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration scientists at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center in Seattle.
"They were like 9-year-olds on Christmas morning," Myers said. "They were giddy."
Researchers measured, photographed and documented the fish. They removed an ear bone, the otolith, which contains growth rings similar to rings on the trunks of trees.
They estimate the rockfish was 90 to 115 years old.
The content of the rockfish's stomach was examined and scientists took tissue samples to measure her reproductive potential.
"The belly was large," Paul Spencer of the Science center said. "The ovaries were full of developing embryos."
Scientists said the specimen is not the biggest on record. The book "Fishes of Alaska" says a 47-inch shortraker rockfish was recorded.

Winterim has been part of the academic calendar at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire since 1996, when only 13 courses were offered. The 2001 Winterim session offers nearly 60 courses during a three-week session that runs Jan. 2-19, with most of these classes meeting every weekday for three hours.
"This Winterim session provides such a rich array of course offerings compared to where we started just five years ago," said Jan Morse, administrative officer for academic affairs. "I think with the number and variety of courses available, most students will find at least one course that will help them stay on track or get a step ahead on completing their degrees."
The three-week Winterim course offerings allow current students to make the most of their winter breaks, Morse said. "Winterim is a wonderful opportunity for students to accelerate degree completion, catch up on those few credits that are needed to achieve the next class level, take a course that is in high demand during the fall and spring semesters, or simply immerse themselves in a subject matter that is of interest to them," Morse said. Winterim also offers an opportunity for people not enrolled at the university to take a course.
"Also, because it is an intensive three-week course, classes are usually smaller, interactions with faculty are more relaxed, and Winterim allows students to totally immerse themselves in the subject matter in a way they cannot when taking three or four courses at the same time," Morse said.
Many juniors and seniors are aware of the benefits of Winterim session, Morse said. "I hope that as the program offerings expand more freshmen and sophomores will see the many advantages of taking a course during Winterim it is a benefit to all students."
The 2001 Winterim schedule includes several timely and interesting courses, Morse said. For example, political science assistant professor Ali Abootalebi is offering a course called "Arab-Israeli Conflict." During the course, Abootalebi will examine the political, socioeconomic, cultural and historical roots of the conflict between Arab States/Palestinian Arabs and the state of Israel.
Also, a few of the kinesiology courses offered this Winterim session are aimed at providing knowledge and experience for individuals to get started on a regular exercise program. These include a one-credit class on weight training and a two-credit course on wellness concepts and fitness.
Information about these and other course offerings is on UW-Eau Claire's Web site, www.uwec.edu, under Admission and Registration and on the Blugold System. Currently enrolled students can register Oct. 16-27, and special students including those not currently enrolled at UW-Eau Claire can begin registering Oct. 27.

We'll also see the Liars trying desperate to determine what scheme A has in store for them in the wake of the lodge fire, turning to Mona for answers. Elsewhere, look for Aria to struggle with seeing Ezra... for the contents of the trunk to be revealed.. and for a shocking discovery to reverberate around Rosewood.

They look like they're at a funeral, and Jenna's still faking blindness. The question is who do they all know that could be dead? I don't think they'd go to Wilden's funeral. I'd say Jason, but according to the clips he still "alive". Or are they re-burying Alison again after her stolen body was found on the Halloween train? How many funerals does one girl need?!
Obviously it's not Jenna in the trunk. I think it might be Wilden...why else would another cop be talking to the 'Liars' and not Wilden?
i want all their dresses except emily. lol.cant wait for june 11!!!

Recently, we posted a facetious response to a Fox News article titled, 'Is Bulletstorm the Worst Video Game in the World?' In Fox's piece, psychiatrist Carole Lieberman is quoted as saying that violent games have caused an "increase in rapes." Such an absurd statement demanded ridicule, but we did feel that Dr. Lieberman deserved a chance to explain herself. Perhaps she was misquoted?
Today, Dr. Lieberman issued a condescending response to "all of the reporters, editors, bloggers, gamers, and others" who contacted her regarding the quoted statement.
"When the Columbine murders took place, there were national polls where people voted on what they believed caused the two young men to kill. Media violence ranked high on the list, so I, obviously mistakenly, assumed that people still knew about the studies showing this connection - and believed them to have proven the link."
The research she "assumed we still knew about" most notably included 'Vulnerability to Violent Video Games: A Review and Integration of Personality Research,' a study published by the American Psychological Association (APA). The paper reviews past research on violent games, and concludes a link between violent games and aggressive behavior "in some individuals."
The report concedes that "a considerable number of studies have failed to find compelling links between VVGs (Violent Video Games) and aggression," but suggests that these inconsistencies may be the result of "poor research design and invalid measurements to publication biases," which seems awfully dismissive. None of these contrary studies were pointed out by Dr. Lieberman (such as the findings of the Australian government, or this study by Yale).
Even so, the APA report states that "it is clear that most children who play these games do not go on to behave in violent or murderous ways," and concludes that violent games are most likely to have an adverse effect on children who exhibit the following traits: high neuroticism (e.g., easily upset, angry, depressed, emotional, etc.), low agreeableness (e.g., little concern for others, indifferent to others feelings, cold, etc.) and low conscientiousness (e.g., break rules, don't keep promises, act without thinking, etc.).
So, according to this research, kids who are depressed, angry, cold, and impulsive may exhibit aggression when exposed to violent media. And this conclusion supports the claim that violent games have caused an increase in rape? Did Dr. Lieberman read this? Granted, she also provided links to reports on violent pornography and an article admonishing 'RapeLay', but those articles and studies are either not expressly about videogames, or have little relevance to mainstream titles like Bulletstorm.
Most importantly, Dr. Lieberman does not defend her claim that there has been an "increase in rape." According to the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network, instances of sexual violence have decreased by 60% since 1993 (the same year Doom was released, by the way). If we were, much like Fox News, in the habit of ignoring that correlation does not necessarily imply causation, we could say that violent games have caused a decrease in rape. How about that, Doc?
Her full response is below (sans attached documents):
Hi everyone,
I am sending this email to all of the reporters, editors, bloggers, gamers and others who have contacted me asking about what my opinion regarding violent video games was based upon. When I was first asked to provide studies, I did not have them on my fingertips - not because I didn't know they existed - but because I thought that everyone already knew about these studies and I had them filed away. My obligations to patients and other professional commitments have delayed my gathering these examples of such studies, and sending them to you, until now.
I have worked in the area of media violence for many years. This included testifying before Congress on the issue, doing numerous media interviews, stopping the 'Schwarzenegger rocket' that was to have had an ad for "Last Action Hero" on it, being invited to contribute an essay on video game violence to Larry King's book Beyond A Reasonable Doubt, etc. When the Columbine murders took place, there were national polls where people voted on what they believed caused the two young men to kill. Media violence ranked high on the list, so I, obviously mistakenly, assumed that people still knew about the studies showing this connection - and believed them to have proven the link.
In any case, I would appreciate your including a mention of these studies on your websites, blogs or comments, or at least including a mention of the fact that I did provide such studies to you. Thank you.

Arguing over taking time off of work!
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 01-22-2013 - 5:01pm
I'm a bit annoyed with my husband right now, along with his ex. They both feel that when THEIR kids get sick that I should "volunteer" to stay home with said sick child since I have more paid days off than either of them. I've said that it's not my responsibility; I work hard and treasure any time off I'm able to take since I work in a stressful environment. I might consider doing it for my husband if it would otherwise hinder our time off together, but refuse to cover for the ex.
Do you think I'm being unreasonable?
|Tue, 01-29-2013 - 12:42pm
Yes, I totally agree with you that looking out for the kid is the best case scenario and should be a goal of divorced or not together parents. I was just strictly responding to this particular post that indicated both the ex and her DH both seem to assume she should be the one that is taking time off of work to care for step child. It shouldn't be an assumption by anyone, it should be something worked out cooperatively between all parties involved in an ideal situation, but is sounded like from this person's post that its obviously not the ideal situation and she shouldn't be automatically expected to be watching step child. If the parents of the child cooperatively work together, if dad needs to cover a sick day when mom can't and vice versa, that is wonderful and ideal, but its not cooperatively working together if dad "volunteers" stepmom to watch stepchild when stepchild is sick without there first being a discussion and agreement between dad and stepmom.
|Mon, 01-28-2013 - 9:36pm
Obviously, you get to make your own decisions. No one can force you to stay home, take a day off, etc.
In a perfect world, your husband and his ex would be able to work together to ensure the kids are taken care of, and utilize you, grandparents, aunt/uncle, etc if and when necessary. But, you, grandparents, aunt/uncle, etc have to AGREE to help out.
Personally, I wouldn't continue a marriage if my spouse was unwilling to step up for my kids. But, that's my preference. Your husband and you are going to have to work out what works for the two of you.
Regarding the other posters, I completely disagree with mom being solely responsible for her time, dad being solely responsible for his time. Especially if one has more time than the other. Best case scenario, the parents would work together to make sure the kids are covered. I can tell you I would NEVER be able to cover my kids sick days during my parenting time if Ex didn't step up to the plate.
|Fri, 01-25-2013 - 9:32am
wow HECK NO! IF the step child is with the mother and the child is ill, it is up to the MOTHER to find someone to watch the child... either herself, or her boyfriend or her parents or friend. It is up to HER to find sutible arrangements. If the step child is with your husband then it is up to HIM to find sutable arrangements, he can ASK you to take off, but it is up to YOU if you say yes or no.
|Thu, 01-24-2013 - 12:39pm
|Thu, 01-24-2013 - 11:38am
I agree with the other poster; if the child is with you and your hubby, it's up to the two of you to work out the logistics. If he or she is with their mom, it's her responsibility. Of course, there are always extenuating circumstances that can come into play and those should be discussed and agreed to by all parties beforehand.
|Wed, 01-23-2013 - 1:20pm
I think if stepchild is with you and DH and its your regularly scheduled visitation or custody time, then its between you and your DH to figure out who can or should use their time off to be home with the child. On days that are not yours, ex gets to figure it out on her own just like any other single mom. Now as for you and DH, that's between you two. I know DH almost exclusively assumes it will be me that will be taking the time off becuase "I'm the mom", because all kids that live in the household are "ours" there isn't supposed to be a distinction between his and mine or ours. But if its his child and there is a bit more distinction, then its his responsibility to find care for the sick kid, whether he sets up a babysitter or asks you really nicely if he can't do it himself.

ASML Holding NV (ASML), Europe's biggest semiconductor equipment maker, reported orders that beat analyst estimates and said technological advances will boost business in the longer term. The shares rose 6.8 percent.
Second-quarter net bookings climbed 9.8 percent from the first quarter to 949 million euros ($1.16 billion) excluding second-generation extreme ultraviolet lithography systems, the Veldhoven, Netherlands-based company said in a statement today. That exceeded analysts' average estimate of 898 million euros in a Bloomberg survey.
The rise of products such as tablet computers and Internet- surfing phones is helping fuel demand for ASML's machines, which make the chips needed to run such devices. The company said it plans to ship its first EUV production system, which enables the production of smaller and more powerful chips, "by the end of this year or early next year."
ASML has "solid growth prospects from EUV technology in 2013 and beyond," James Crawshaw, an analyst at Standard & Poor's, said in a note today. The company also has a "strong competitive position in the lithography market as evidenced by the recent investment made by Intel," said Crawshaw, who maintained a hold recommendation for the stock.
ASML shares climbed 2.81 euros to 44.23 euros at the close of Amsterdam trading. The stock has gained 36 percent this year.
Rising profitability
Profitability will grow "steadily," Chief Executive Officer Eric Meurice said on a conference call today. "We are anchored by the short-term 2012, and by the mid- to long-term lithography market," which is driven by a huge "technology transition appetite" in the industry.
Intel Corp. (INTC:US), the world's largest chipmaker, last week agreed to invest as much as $4.1 billion in the Dutch company to speed up development of new production techniques and take a stake of as much as 15 percent. ASML said it's discussing similar investments with Samsung Electronics Co. (005930) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (2330)
ASML supplies machines to chipmakers including TSMC and Intel, which yesterday scaled back its revenue forecast amid slower personal-computer demand in the U.S. and Europe. Applied Materials Inc. (AMAT:US), ASML's U.S. rival, on July 10 cited weaker demand in Europe and China as a reason why it won't reach earlier revenue and profit projections.
Memory Chips
ASML's second-half net sales will be in a range of 2.2 billion euros to 2.4 billion euros, the company said today. That compares with an average 2.45 billion-euro estimate of analysts in a Bloomberg survey and the 2.67 billion euros in revenue reported a year earlier.
Second-half sales will reflect demand for NAND memory chips, which in turn hinges on the success of new ultrabook computers and smartphone deliveries, Meurice said in the statement.
ASML scheduled an extraordinary shareholder meeting for Sept. 7 to discuss the agreement with Intel.
The company said it expects to maintain sales minus production costs at about 43 percent of revenue in the third quarter. Net income in the three months through June rose to 292 million euros from 282 million euros in the previous quarter.

Craig Gower has signed a new contract with London Broncos that will keep him at the Super League club until the end of the 2014 season.
The half-back, 34, initially joined the Broncos on a two-year deal after deciding to return to the 13-man code following three years with French rugby union side Bayonne.
Despite a difficult maiden season in Super League in which the Broncos finished just two points above bottom-placed Widnes, the Australian is happy to stay in London for another year.
"We're settled here, I spoke to the club and they were willing to give me another year which was great," Gower, who played in the NRL with Penrith Panthers and also represented New South Wales, told the Broncos website.
"Obviously last season was a tough season but we love being here and we've enjoyed it, even though it was a tough grind it's just part of footy. I'm just looking forward to this year.
"That's the benefit of having a group that's a year older and hopefully we can respond to that and play a lot more consistent football over the entire year."
Broncos head coach Tony Rea said: "Craig displays terrific appetite for the game and towards training and preparation.
"Some people might query signing a player of his age but the fact he played every game apart from one last year is better evidence than his birth certificate. It's not a risk, it's calculated. The evidence is he is playing."

Yesterday, the NARS 2012 Summer Collection made its debut and as usual, it's pretty awesome. I am also in love with this campaign image. That lip colour is to die! Read on to see the new products up close.
According to BangStyle.com, Marc Jacobs has just announced a collaboration with beauty giant Sephora. I don't know about you but I am excited! I feel like this collection is going to be super colourful and really out of the ordinary. Makeup needs a shakeup every now and then and Marc Jacobs can certainly do that. What do you guys think? As excited to see this collection as I am?
On a side note, anyone else think Marc Jacobs needs to stop putting himself in his own ads all the time? I know you're cut Marc, but seriously! I guess if your bod is rock hard you just can't get enough of it! Plus, I'd be lying if I said I didn't love his brows in this pic. Thoughts?
The latest collaboration over at Lancôme is with Quebec painter, Corno. Living in New York and known around the world, Corno is a superb colourist so her contribution to this summer collection is definitely vibrant. Read on for close-up shots of my fave products in this limited edition collection.
If you're a fan of the hit Mad Men show then Estée Lauder's newest collection is really going to float your boat. I have to confess – I don't really watch the show. But regardless, I'm still loving this whole look. Read on to see the new collection.
The NARS Spring 2012 Collection is hitting counters today and so far, I'm loving just about all of it. Read on to see the goods.
Ok, so this collection won't be hitting stores before March but it's never too early to get started on your spring must-have list. Find out why the Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Capri Collection for spring 2012 is one of my faves of the season.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is in full swing and I must say, some brands have really put in the extra effort to make their fundraising goodies not only adorable, but totally fabulous. One of those caring brands is Estée Lauder – who just so happens to also be one of my fave beauty brands in general. Find out why these products are not to be missed this year!

End of the Road (for now)
The Minnesota Twins failed to sign two of the Red Wings' biggest stars from last year – first basemen Garrett Jones and Randy Ruiz.
Friday, Ruiz was named Pacific Coast League MVP even while he plays in the majors for Toronto. And Jones is a candidate for National League Rookie of the Year honors with Pittsburgh with an amazing 18 home runs.
The Wings have another outstanding first baseman/outfielder this year named Justin Huber, an Australia native who leads the team with 22 home runs and 76 RBI. And the Twins, apparently, are doing the right thing by promoting Huber after Monday's season finale in Scranton.
"He's a class act, a Minnesota Twin all the way," Wings manager Stan Cliburn said Friday night.
This is good news for Huber, of course. But it's also good news for Wings fans. The former big-leaguer will not be on Minnesota's 40-man roster. Unless they take him off in the off-season, he won't be able to become a free agent. His chances of returning to Rochester just heated up several degrees.
The 2010 Red Wings need more players like Huber, a great clubhouse presence who can play first base or outfield and carries a big stick. Remember, he played only one game over the first three weeks of the season due to visa problems and an injury.
TOMMY WATKINS TOLD ME TONIGHT, "I won't play next year." Tommy is hoping to stay with the Twins in coaching. It's a good move. I love Tommy, but his play slowed considerably this year and he might have been released by a less caring big-league club (and if he wasn't such a great guy). He went on the "phantom DL" at least twice that I know of. I know Tommy would love to eventually return to Rochester in some capacity. Former Wings catcher Chris Heintz, now a coach at Single-A Beloit, has told me the same thing. It's the power of Rochester and its fans. Players don't see it right away, because they're so eager to get out of here. But once their careers are over, they remember Rochester in a positive light because it's a great baseball town.
THE WINGS ALMOST CERTAINLY WON'T FINISH the season above .500 this year. After losing 7-3 to Scranton on Friday, they'll have to beat the Yankees four straight to clinch a sixth straight winning season under the Twins.
Scranton sealed its fourth straight IL North title. IL MVP Shelley Duncan started a three-run eighth with a solo homer off Sean Henn – the 30th homer this year for Duncan. Shows you the strength of the New York Yankees when a Triple-A guy with 30 dingers is still in the minors!
Defense has been a weakness for the Wings all season, and it was tonight. Second baseman Steven Tolleson continues to play on his heels, and made two more errors tonight. Dustin Martin looked shaky in right and also committed an error. As Cliburn said, you can't give a team as good as Scranton extra outs.
I'VE RECEIVED A TON OF comments from fans who have their own suggestions for Frontier Field improvements. I promise to run them very soon. They are quite entertaining and, for the most part, on the money.
SATURDAY IS THE RED WINGS' finale, but it won't be the last baseball game at Frontier Field this year. The Wings are inviting fans (at $20 per person) to come watch Game 2 of the World Series on Thursday, Oct. 29 from the press box or luxury suites. The game will be shown on the large videoboard in left-center. An all-you-can-eat buffet and soft drink bar is part of the package.
CONGRATS TO WINGS GM Dan Mason on 20 years with the team. As Dan can attest, that is an unbelievable number. The years have just flown by. I've closed the book on my 19th year covering the team, and it seems like yesterday that I was hanging out in Ottawa with Glenn Geffner and Josh Lewin, waiting for the playoffs to start. Friday was my final game of the year. I won't be at Saturday's home finale because I'll be in Syracuse covering the SU-Minnesota football opener from the Carrier Dome. This was a dull year. Name a player from this year's team that excites you in the way Justin Morneau, Jason Kubel, Francisco Liriano or Pat Neshek did in years past. My point, exactly.
I WILL KEEP THIS BLOG GOING through the World Series, and then on and off. But I need your ideas, your thoughts and concerns. Drop me an e-mail about anything on your mind. And keep an eye out for those Frontier Field improvements. Bye for now.

I am EBFing my four week old. We finally have nursing fairly down, but my milk comes in so fast that she only nurses for 5-10 minutes and then she is done. I can't get her to nurse more. I've tried stripping her down to her diaper, making the room cooler, changing diaper, burping etc. Pretty much everything the LC at the hospital told me to try.
Sometimes my breasts are so engorged that she can't latch on and it literally squirts her and she ends up choking. I have tried pumping about an ounce or two prior to feeding and that helps her latch on and she tends to nurse a little bit longer that way. I am freezing that milk now, but I know that it is only foremilk so I don't really want to save it.
I would like to start building up a stash for when I go back to work, but I'm not sure how. Do I pump until my breast is almost empty and feed her off the other one? I concerned about increasing my supply even more because at this point it's just way too much.
So after the novel, I guess my question is, can i pump without increasing my supply? And what is the proper method timing etc for pumping? Feeling very lost and can't seem to find information on how to actually establish a pumping schedule.
Your situation sounds similar to mine. Do you block feed (just one side per feeding)? Try that, if not.
And I did the pump off the first 1 oz before feeding so she could latch on better at the beginning, too, but that doesn't help in the long run because it doesn't regulate your supply to what LO needs-- it perpetuates the oversupplu. I would try and phase that out if you can. (oh, and I labeled mine as foremilk and froze them-- later I mixed that 1-2 ounce with regular milk for her bottles and it seemed fine)
How soon do you go back to work? Since you are borderline oversupply, I personally wouldn't try to create a stash until right before you go back. Maybe a week before you go back, I'd add in an extra pumping session that you plan to keep on a regular basis, and use that to build your stash. once you have a stash you are comfortable with, I would gradually reduce the amount you pump in that extra session and phase it out (unless you are having supply problems).
I know a lot of people complain of losing their supply when they go back to work, but with my borderline oversupply problem, I have never had a problem getting enough for her the next day, and usually pump an extra few ounces (and I've been sick twice). So you may not need much of a stash ahead of time.
Kellymom.come has instructions on how to build a stash.
DS only eats for 10 minutes at a time on one side at a time. The pedi at our first two appts. was concerned even though he was gaining weight (just not enough in her eyes). So we had a LC come to the house twice in the first couple of weeks. Since the pedi didn't think 10 minutes was enough time to eat, we timed and weighed. DS ate over 3 oz in that 10 minutes! She also said that I could pump off my engorgement, pumping no more than 3-5 minutes at a session and not affect my supply. In the first 6 weeks, I could pump for 3 minutes and get 3 oz and still have plenty for DS. Just from pumping from engorgement, I have managed to freeze 90 oz in 2 months. Now at 9 weeks, my supply is somewhat more regulated, and I can go several days without pumping.
I would recommend doing a feed and weigh to see how much you LO eats in 10 minutes. Time doesn't necessarily matter, and you might not need to wake her up if she only eats for 10 minutes if she's eating enough at a session.

Pat and Henry, we have been to your home away from home twice. Each time it was enjoyable but different. In May we went to the beach, a sidewalk fair and an art festival. When we went recently in October, it was too cold to go to the beach, so we took advantage of the great shopping-tax free- a craft show-and we just wandered from town to town in the area.
Both times you provided a clean, friendly environment in which to watch the ducks, geese, etc. on the lake in the back yard and relax. We ate all kinds of good food in restaurants that were close. There is a kitchen in the townhouse with all modern conveniences, but this was our vacation and we did not take advantage of them. Also, Pat and Henry provide books and games if you just wanted to stay in and relax.
Thank you.

I've long suspected that there was a hidden "antiquities agenda" to western intervention in the Middle East, and have even voiced concerns on this website that Syria may be the latest victim of having its priceless heritage deliberately plundered. A regular reader here, Mr. V.T., sent me the following article, which does confirm that Syrian antiquities are indeed being looted, and the article even suggests a scenario that emerges after some high octane speculation is applied to it. But before we can indulge in that, first, the article:
Syria's Cultural Heritage Is Under Threat
The parts of this article that gives rise to my high octane speculation are these. First, from the beginning of the article:
"Scholars are warning of the destruction and looting of cultural goods, thousands of years old, as a result of the civil war in Syria.
"'Countless people have died because of the battles, and their culture, which is 5,000 years old and includes the earliest texts of mankind, has also been lost', says Ancient Near Eastern Studies Scholar Prof. Dr. Hans Neumann from the committee of the 32nd German Oriental Studies Conference (Deutscher Orientalistentag, DOT) which over 1,000 Oriental researchers from all over the world are expected to attend in September at the University of Münster. The discipline of Ancient Near Eastern Studies reckons with irrecoverable losses in Syria. 'Many Syrians are also suffering from the destructions and illicit excavations. They are proud of historical World Heritage Sites such as Aleppo, Damascus and Palmyra, and also base their identity on ancient Near Eastern history.'"(emphasis added)
And then this:
"Smugglers take historical evidence such as cuneiform texts, seals, metal items or pottery abroad. These artefacts come from ancient palaces, temples or private residences and are then sold on the black market, explains the expert for Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform texts, referring to the experiences since the Iraq War. 'Even if the items are confiscated, what we researchers miss is the overall context: in which settlement, in which house and in which room were the items found? The finds' complex historical and social context cannot be reconstructed this way.'"(emphasis added)
What this suggests to me is a methodology of seeking and finding antiquities for the hidden elites that allows them to maintain a "plausible deniability" and even to be involved only second or third hand. Consider the following scenario. Let us say, in addition to the various geopolitical reasons the Anglosphere advances for its backing of Syrian "rebels," that there is a hidden agenda to seek, find, and gather a "wish list" of various antiquities. In the chaotic conditions of an insurgency, "smugglers" could be "encouraged" by means of cut-outs, agents provocateur, and other western "handlers" to "dig here," or "we have a buyer for this or that," and the illicit digs will proceed. The cuneiform tablets that hidden elites would be seeking could be "ordered" off a "price list" compiled from field catalogs of known digs, and so on.
To put it briefly, it would be all too easy for the military-industrial-intelligence-finance complex of the Western elites to disguise their searches for antiquities, and their acquisition of them, behind a tapestry of cutouts, illicit digs, smugglers, and antiquities brokers for a "black market. " Time will tell if this is true or not, but if so, then it fits the familiar "inside job" pattern that we saw at work in the Baghdad Museum looting. And it would raise suspicions, once again, of the similar pattern of "looting" that occurred during the fall of the Mubarek regime, and now, again, in Egypt.
Call me crazy if you want, folks, but I think the goings on in the Middle East are about more than oil, petrodollars, or geopolitics.
See you on the flip side.

Some Samsung Galaxy S4 units are bursting into fire in Israel
Meanwhile, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, the most widely read paper in the country, says that thousands of Galaxy S4 models have been experiencing the swollen battery issue with at least 20 units catching on fire. Scailex, the company that imports Samsung products into Israel, told the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange that it started to hear about these problems in the third quarter of last year, and has been in touch with Samsung. Scailex says that there are no problems with devices produced after January 2014.
Scailex spoke with stock market officials after local media in Israel started publishing stories about the fires.
"We are aware that there have been a small number of burning cases of the Galaxy S4 in Israel. All of the incidents examined so far have been attributed to the use of unauthorized batteries or the application of external shock or heat."-Samsung

i would say nokia is one of the best company who comes out with a quality product .their testing methods is soo good that even iphone can't surpass them .also i haven't heard of htc phones giving such similar problems. sony has the problem of heating with their latest xperia z2 phones in asian countries and poor software with so many bugs on other devices.

Man........The GS4 looks way better than the GS5
8. StraightEdgeNexus (Posts: 3617; Member since: 14 Feb 2014)
No way!! I had that misunderstanding for a while but when I saw both in real, GS5 looked way better.
9. vincelongman (Posts: 1699; Member since: 10 Feb 2013)
The GS5 screen is very impressive IMO
The S4 had one of the dimmest displays, now the S5 has one of the brightest
10. rahul.niks (Posts: 69; Member since: 31 Oct 2013)
In my opinion, both are not good. Samsung are misser on design side, only s2 and note series are fine

Everything looks better than the Hansaplast.
13. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 850; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
It certainly does, the thinner bezels, the pattern used in its case etc... Looks a lot better than GS5 even in real life, I know because I deal with both daily. The GS5 is more grippy though thanks to the back over, if the S4 had the same sort of back cover it would be way better.
The best looking and feeling is the GS4 Black Edition, absolutely stunning piece of work by Samsung there.

No way, that's a lie. There is simply no way in the universe, that any Samsung product could ever have an issue, especially the galaxy line. It's perfect, cuz RoundhouseMcGee said it is.

Thanks Samsung for the removable battery, and all the retail seller in Israel are honest and ethical to sell the phone originally without changing the inner battery to the cheap 3rd party battery...

Deserts and Beyond
Deserts and beyond...places in and around the southern California deserts and beyond. Photo taken at Canyon Lake, in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona, December 2011. A few minutes later, after the sun disappeared, these cliffs were their normal color. They were only golden for a short time and I'm glad we were able to view them in their glory.

Wow, it't a very clear reflection! It looks like the photo is just inverted, if not scrutinized.
