Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

YUIN PK3 Earbuds
" The PK3 is a great, warm earbud. It does vocals especially well because it is very mid-focused. It has impressive bass extension, not especially strong impact; the trebles are smooth and may roll off too soon for clarity and detail nuts. But the mids are what the PK3 are all about. " --kmhaynes
Yuin Pk1 Earphones
" These were my sweetest sounding head-gear yet. It would be brilliant all-rounder if it would not require a portable amp for portable use.

" Well firstly this is not a true iem. The sound is about as great as one could get from an earbud.

Waking Up Pregnant! by Mira Lyn Kelly
The night that changed everything!
Waitress Darcy Penn is the smart, sensible type--flirting with the extremely cure guy in the bar just isn't her style. As for ending up in his hotel room? Definitely not! Sneaking out while he's in the bathroom to avoid post-sex awkwardness? Much more like it.
If Darcy has stuck around, Jeff Norton could have told her about their "epic latex fail." So he shouldn't be quite so shocked when months later, Darcy turns up at his classy L.A. office and throws up in his wastepaper basket. She's got a bad case of morning sickness, and she's here to find out what he's going to do about it.
I have been reading more and more romance books lately, I think all the paranormal romance I read is making me seek out romance on a level that doesn't involve the paranormal element and resembles real life a little bit more. I am not quite sure what made me pick this book out of the thousands of other romance books out there, but I think the title did it for me, "Waking Up Pregnant" was just calling out for me to read it.
So most romances involve meeting, getting to know each other, recovering from some kind of obstacle in the way of their love, and then having their happily ever after. This book kind of throws that formula to the wind, and goes at things completely opposite of their natural order. I think that it's something that I actually really enjoyed about the book, that it doesn't follow the so called traditional way a romance should take place.
A one night stand ending up with a baby as the result, I'm sure it happens frequently, so it made for a pretty believable story line. I actually really liked both characters. In a lot of romances I tend to favor one over the other, but this book had me liking both people pretty much on equal ground.
Darcy is a stubborn, strong-willed, independent woman who has survived a lot of things throughout her life that made her into the person she is today. But having a baby with a total stranger results in her having to not just reevaluate her life, but also change the way she reacts to things as well as learn to accept help from other people. It's really nice to watch her grow into a person who is ready for love and not so closed off.
As for Jeff, the author kind of writes him in the beginning as the perfect recipe for a playboy, he's rich, good looking, successful, travels a lot, and is confident with women. All the classic markers of playboy. But he never really comes off that way, there is something much deeper to him, seems like he was raised right. He likes a challenge, and Darcy was certainly a challenge, but even months afterward when she shows up to tell him they are going to have a baby, he is a stand up guy. He doesn't shove her aside, or make her feel like she did something wrong, he goes completely into how do we make this work for the baby mode. The thing I think I like the most about Jeff, is through the whole book he never pushes Darcy too hard, sure he convinces her to go along with some of his plans, but they all come from a good place. And in the end he respects her and her wishes and opinions, which to me counts for a lot in a man.
The love story itself between the two of them is actually pretty sweet, and it plays out quite nicely. If I had one complaint about the book it would be that there aren't a lot of other characters. Darcy and Jeff each seem to have one other person to talk to who make appearances in the book, but there really isn't cast of characters in the book, which I think results in their being a little less depth to the book. Also the book does jump around a bit, in terms of time, sometimes a little more than I would have liked, but not enough to detract from the reading experience. Overall, I enjoyed the read, read it in one sitting, and think it's a nice little escape when you are looking for a romance to read.

Unknown by Rachel Caine
Living among mortal, Cassiel has begun to develop a reluctant affection for them--especially the intriguing Warden Luis Rocha. As the mystery deepens around the kidnapping of innocent Warden children, Cassiel and Luis are the only ones who can investigate within both the human and the Djinn realms.
But the more Luis an Cassiel search, the more dangerous the trail becomes, reaching not only into a fanatical splinter group, but into the highest ranks of Cassiel's immortal kin. An outcast from her own kind, Cassiel must now rely on her own limited earthbound powers to save the young Wardens...if it's not already to late.
My vacation reading continues with the second book in the Outcast Season Series by Rachel Caine. I really enjoyed the first book, which was a nice set up for the big show downs that seem like they are going to continue throughout the short series.
Starting with Cassiel, she is becoming more and more human every day, although she is more than able to still act and think like a Djinn. There is a serious oh my God moment in this book where Cassiel just goes hard core Djinn, and it's really at this point that you understand that there are two Cassiels, the one who is learning to be human and love her fellow humans and the Djinn whose eons of existence can't be pushed aside by only a couple of months of humanity.
Luis and Cassiel together as characters are just awesome. They work so amazingly well together, they are both so single minded in their mission that they are able to have this short hand that you would think should take years to cultivate. I love how protective the two of them are of each other, even though they are each total powerhouses. I am really enjoying the evolution of their relationship, and the love that is really starting to grow between them. But I do also think that there is something looming on the horizon for them, some kind of hiccup in their road to happiness together, and it will be interesting to see if they are able to overcome whatever it ends up being.
I really thought the whole series was going to be able trying to get the one child back, Ibby, the one who they both have a personal connection to. Heads up, here comes a spoiler, Ibby is finally found in this book. And as I am sure everyone can totally understand, is not the child that was taken, gone is her innocence and blind trust. It is going to be really interesting to see how the adults cope with having this girl who has powers that she shouldn't have yet, and how Ibby copes with the new reality of her situation.
I also think that Caine should be given a lot of credit for coming up with this great villain. Pearl is really, in every sense of the word, a super villain. I also think that everyone except Cassiel totally underestimate her. I am not sure if that is because Cassiel is just not coming off as trustworthy to people, or if it's just simple denial that there really could be a problem of this magnitude on the horizon. It seems like everyone in any position of power think Cassiel is just crying wolf. Although the government agencies start getting into the mix in this book so it's going to be really interesting to see if the non-gifted humans can combat such a big bad when every other major player seems to have gone missing.
I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys urban fantasy or Rachel Caine, I think this is one of her stronger series. Also I think that if you like a good paranormal romance this book is a definite step up from the previous book in terms of romance, so you may wanna check it out.

Undone by Rachel Caine
Once she was a powerful Djinn. Then Cassiel defied her ruler, Ashan, who tore her very essence away and reshaped her in human flesh as punishment. Forced to live among mortals, Cassiel has found refuge among the Weather Wardens--whose power she must tap into regularly, or she will die.
Cassiel earns her keep by assisting the Earth Warden Manny Rocha on his missions--which she finds much easier than coping with the emotions and frailties of her human condition, especially her growing affection for Manny's brother, Luis. But when Cassiel encounters a malevolent force that threatens the Rocha family, se discovers that her perceived human weaknesses must be her greatest strengths...
Rachel Caine has been one of my favorite authors for a long time now, and if you haven't read her Weather Warden series you should. This series is a spin off of the Weather Warden series, taking place in the same universe as that series, even with a couple of familiar characters popping into the beginning of this book. That being said I think this book stands completely on its own.
I really liked Cassiel, she is kind of a crazy person by human standards, as I think all Djinn are, they have a very interesting view of the world. You start following Cassiel right at the beginning of her fall from "grace" and while she is shocked about her new condition, she handles things shockingly well. In a lot of ways this novel is really just a starting point to the real action which I assume will start to pick up in the next book.
Cassiel works with Manny, and start to form human connections with him and his family. Manny is a great guy for Cassiel I think, he's just a good person at heart and can really teach her what it is to be human by allowing her to really become a part of his family. When Manny's family comes under fire, and his daughter, Ibby, goes missing, Cassiel really realizes how much she has come to care about these people.
Cassiel teams up with Luis, Manny's brother and Ibby's uncle to find and bring Ibby back home. Luis is much less trusting that Manny was with Cassiel. He's lived a harder life, having been in a gang before, and generally not sure if Cassiel is actually going to help things. The two of them together I think work really well together. It's like they are both such hardened people on their own, that they are able to come to an understanding about how to work with each other really quickly. I really hope their dynamic starts to evolve in the next book into something more, but I think I just have a thing for characters pairing up.
The action in this book really starts after Ibby goes missing, and then it never really stops. It's a constant ride from that point on, a race against time if you will to find her before something else happens to her. And throughout the race to find her they discover that what it is really going on is even more than anyone could have conceived. The book ends with pretty much a cliff hanger, but at a decent stopping point.
Overall, I liked the book a lot, as I like almost all of Caine's books. I think any urban fantasy reader would enjoy reading this book, although PNR people are going to be craving more romance since there is next to zero in this book. I really did enjoy this book and I look forward to reading book two and the rest of the series.

Shadow Kin by M.J. Scott
I was born of a Fae mother, but I had no place among her kind. They called me soulless. An abomination. Perhaps they're right.... I am a wraith, a show who slips between worlds. I was given into the service of the Blood Lord Lucius, who raised me to be his most feared assassin. Still, I'm nothing more than a slave to my master and to the need that only h can fulfill....
Then Lucius orders me to kill Simon DuCaine, a powerful sunmage. In the blaze of Simon's magic, my own disappears. Instead of seeking revenge, he shows me mercy. He wants to free me. But that's one thing my master and his kind will never allow.
And even if I thought I could trust Simon, stepping from the shadows into the light isn't as simple as it sounds...
So I bought this book for two reasons, 1 I love the cover (I know, I know, never judge a book by its cover( and 2 it has a Patty Briggs endorsement, and I love me some Patty Briggs. So I bought the book, didn't read the back cover at all, and just dove in. In fact when I bought this book, I bought another 5 randomly chosen books from the same section in the book store, in hopes of finding some new others and going outside of my comfort zone of loved authors.
This book is one of the examples of why I should venture out more, because this book was such a good read. It took me about three days to work all the way through (and believe me if I didn't need to sleep, eat, or build a fence for my yard I would have finished it in one sitting). I love following along with a more "dark" character if you will, and Lily is definitely starting out on the darker side of things, although her existence is clearly a dark and tortured one. I love that Lily's darkness is balanced out by Simon's light, not just in the fact that he is a sunmage and she is a wraith, but rather that he is optimistic and works for good, and she is trapped in darkness in more than one way.
Lily is just such a tortured soul, she reminds me of one of those people who are told by their families that they are ugly and worthless, and then when they go out in the world and people tell them they are beautiful and worthy, they just can't accept it. Of course Lily's situation is much worse than this, but just as heartbreaking. Simon as a character is just great, I think I love him. He's strong, but kind. He has a heart like no other, but as the story goes on you realize he has some dark spots in his past, some demons of his own to contend with. It makes him all the better of a character. And the two of them together are just fantastic.
The plot itself was good, and enjoyable, and I liked seeing the world that Scott created. Sure it is vampire/mages/beast lore, but she uses interesting words to describe it, and paints this great old timey kind of picture. She really transports you into a completely different world, and it felt fresh, which I love.
The only thing I don't like about this series is that it appears (after reading this book and clamoring for more information about the authors upcoming books) that the series itself follows a different couple in each book, as a lot of PNR books do. I will read the authors others books because I love her writing, but I do wish I could follow Lily and Simon some more, because as characters they are just fantastic. I would recommend this book to just about anyone who like the UF and PNR genres.

Blood Law by Jeannie Holmes
A provocative and savvy vampire, Alexandra Sabian moves to the sleepy hamlet of Jefferson, Mississippi--population 6,000, nearly half vampires--to escape the demons lurking in her past. As an enforcer for the Federal Bureau of Preternatural Investigations (FBPI). Alex must maintain the uneasy peace between her kind and humans, including Jefferson's bigoted sheriff, who'd be happy to see all vampires banished from town. Then really dead vamps start turning up--beheaded, crucified, and defanged, the same gruesome manner in which Alex's father was murdered decades ago. For Alex, the professional has become way to personal.
Things get even more complicated when the FBPI sends in some unnervingly sexy backup: Alex's onetime mentor, lover, and fiance, Varik Baudelaire. Still stinging from the betrayal that ended their short-lived engagement. Alex is determined not to give in to the temptation that soon threatens to short-circuit her investigation. But as the vamp body count grows and the public panic level rises, Varik may be Alex's only hope to stop a relentless killer who's got his own score to settle and his own bloody past to put right.
First and foremost, I really enjoyed the book. I thought that it was kind of a great mix of bring procedural, cop type events, into a paranormal setting. I know a lot of UF books do the kind of PI thing, or the main character works for some kind of paranormal government agencies patrolling fellow paranormals, but this book just worked for me, and it didn't feel like it was copying anything else.
First off, I loved the characters. I loved all of them. I liked the good guys, I liked the bad guys, and I liked the people who fell somewhere in between. I really liked the fact that the author uses more than one POV and did so convincingly. I have a lot of respect for an author who can put themselves into the POV of so many different people all while being convincing as all those people. When I read the bad guy POV I really felt like I was getting into the mind of real deal, it was so convincing. And when we switched back into a different point of view I was just as convinced.
I think another element that enjoyed about the book was the bigoted aspect, there was a huge line between the vampires and what can only be described as humans in a hate group. It's hard to read about hateful people sometimes, it can be such an intense and sometimes uncomfortable things to experience, even through a book. But I think the author did a good job balancing the hate aspects of it with other character driven events, romance, suspense, etc.
Speaking of romance, I loved Alex and Varik. They have a lot of history, a lot of history. And it's hard to really tell you guys anything about the two of them without giving anything away. As the book progresses you get more and more information about the two of them, and you get to see them interact with each other, and it's such a good reader experience watching the two of them evolve throughout. So I won't ruin anything for anyone, except to say that I really enjoyed reading them.
Overall, I highly recommend this book. I am looking forward to reading the second book in the series, which is already out. I wish there was going to be a third book, but it seems like that isn't going to happen through the traditional publisher, so I can only encourage Jeannie to self-publish the third book on her own, because I would love to read it. I think anyone who enjoys UF should read this book as soon as possible.

Anna Wolfe Guest Post
First, I'd like to thank Kate for letting me do a guest post! Second, I'd like to thank the people reading the post.
Over the course of my life, I've read or heard four pieces of advice that had a significant impact on my writing. In this guest post, I'm going to focus on one of them: write what you know. Given that I prefer genres that involve demons and vampires and witches (oh my), that's not always been the most useful advice. Sorting out what it meant to write what I know took a long time (like two decades).
Graduate school was a formative experience for me. In many ways, graduate school breaks you down. The classes and the culture require you to narrow your focus, train your brain to move in linear patterns, and reward you for developing an obsession with grammar and sentence construction. No matter what I said, a professor always seemed to be saying, "you need a citation for that." Once, in frustration, I asked if I needed a citation to say the sky was blue. My professor, with a straight face, said, "it would help."
And yet, immersing yourself in the sheer quantity of human thought (even though you'll never manage to absorb more than a fraction of it) teaches you to ask nuanced and focused questions about the world. The favorite question of a social scientist is "why?" followed closely by "how?" and then "so what?" Asking questions has always been one of my favorite activities and graduate school gave me a question-asking arsenal.
I was in the home stretch of writing my dissertation and I was dog-tired. I hated the topic, I hated the dissertation, I had nothing interesting to say anymore, and I was so sick of citing that I thought I might tear my hair out in frustration. I have always loved reading and have been trying to write fiction for most of my life (though that's a story for another post). My brain needed an escape and it found one in a whole new set of questions that didn't need a single citation.
What if demons were real? What kind of demons? Horned denizens of hell? Vengeful spirits of the dead? Evil creatures that torment people? Numerous cultures have examples of creatures that threaten, bedevil, and tempt. Some are beautiful and some have horns. Some come from other realms and some are created by human error or arrogance. What explanation could make the myths of the demons across the world semi-cohesive? Good god, what if demons were really real?
My brain spit out answers so fast it was like a fever. For every answer I could come up with, a dozen new questions popped up and then I was writing like a woman possessed. When I don't know how to answer the question, I make up an answer. All it has to do is make sense within the framework I've already laid out. I swear, every time I do that, a part of my brain howls in triumph. Fuck you, Academia, and your stupid little citations too! HAHAHAHA!
Every writer has to answer these kinds of questions (i.e. do world building and character development), but how they go about asking and answering reflects their own process of writing what they know. For me, writing what I know is about the asking the questions my career path trained me to ask in the fantasy worlds I've been visiting since I was little.
Below, I've included descriptions for Bitten (Book 1) and Addicted (Book 2) as well as links to my personal webpage and Smashwords. The Amazon link is for Bitten (which is free). You can also download the books at Barnes and Noble.
Bitten: Description
"There is another world touching ours that is filled with demons or, at least, that's what we call them. They call themselves something else entirely, though that is neither here nor there. Every now and again, human beings manage to pull these demons through to our side. The human dies, of course, and the demon gets a person shaped suit to live in. We call these creatures the demonridden."
Only fanatics and lunatics believe demons can possess human beings. Or at least, that's what Callie White thought until one possessed her best friend. Now, wanted for murdering the thing that crawled into her friend's body and dealing with hungers and powers she doesn't understand, Callie White just wants to die. She just has to make sure no one can bring another demon over before she goes. When that proves more difficult than expected, Callie is pushed to her limits and discovers just how common demon possession really is.

Since the end of the Great Demon War, Silas has done his best to teach the newly bitten how to harness their abilities and do as little harm as possible. After nearly two centuries, however, Silas is starting to feel like he's fraying around the edges. He can only hope that the magic that binds him and honor will be enough to keep him one step ahead of those who would see him fail.

What can I do so my clients' nail beds aren't ruined after I remove their acrylic? Is the problem with the application or the removal?
La Cinda Headings: The problem can be caused by both. The product itself doesn't damage the nail plate. To prevent thinning during application, take care to use fine-grit abrasives when in contact with the natural nail. (That means when filing for rebalances also.) Most damage comes from overfilling the natural nail when filing to remove lifting. As for the removal process, picking the product off can damage the nail. Soaking the product off can dry the nail plate out, but it can be reconditioned.
Lynnette Diaz-Madden: There are a few things that could be the cause of "ruined" nail beds. Make sure when you prep before applying product that your do not over-file. Overfiling is the leading cause of damage to the nail beds. Not being an advocate of acrylic nippers, I prefer to remove enhancements with the tin foil method: Saturate a cotton ball in acetone, apply on the nails, and wrap in tin foil. Make sure to use a cuticle oil on the skin surrounding the nails. If you have access to paraffin, dip the fingers, covering the tinfoil. You can also place the hands in heated mitts. The product should be ready to remove in about 20 minutes.
Because the nails tend to be soften after removal, I would recommend using and retailing a good cuticle oil and a nail strengthener. Keep the nails short until you feel comfortable letting the client let them grow longer. It will not be long before the client's nail are long again and your former enhancement client will now be a natural nail client!

Eyedea & Abilities
Eyedea and Abilities is what you get when you combine the very best of two opposite ends of Hip-Hop's musical spectrum. On one end you have the M.C./Lyricist, Eyedea, who has proven himself time and time again not only as an extraordinary song writer, but also as a master at battling and the art of freestyling. On the other end you have Abilities, the D.J./Turntablist, who's talent from the battle, to the mix tape, to production has resonated on the underground for quite some time now. When you put these two extremes together, you get the new, innovative and exciting dynamic we like to call E&A.
Eyedea & Abilities
All beats and scratches produced and cut up by DJ Abilities for
Low Budget High Class (ASCAP) additional production and cuts (victim, pan right) on "Two Men & A Lady" by DJ Infamous. Live bass on "Paradise", "Glass" and "Two Men & A Lady" by Sean McPherson.
All lyrics by Eyedea for Make Money & Die (ASCAP) additional lyrics on "Star Destroyer" by Carnage.
Engineered & Mixed by Eyedea at E&A Studios/St. Paul, MN

What keeps E&A above the fold is variation rather than innovation. Musically, this record is all over the place. It's a sound collage with a variety of musical textures: plenty of samples (from movies to hip hop classics), kooky interludes a la Kid Koala, sudden jumps into double time, long scratching sessions, even just plain rapping. In Abilities' production you can feel the influence of both his battles at the DMC regionals and his work scratching on El-P's Fantastic Damage. He does a particularly excellent job of containing Eyedea, who might otherwise bring too much party to the party. Just when you start to feel bogged down with Eyedea's often grating voice, a long montage of scratches or classical music or a sample from Todd Solondz's Storytelling breaks up the monotony. Abilities even cuts Eyedea's voice into scratches, one obvious yet fruitful innovation that most hip hoppers rarely attempt.
Have no fear though, E&A is all about ego, and Eyedea gets to do his thing. When the beat suddenly doubles, our MC demonstrates an admirable staccato breath control, mimicking the scratches of the DJ, like trading fours in jazz form. He's got the gift of gab, and like most MCs he seems to be talking to himself as much as his audience, puffing himself up, manifesting the necessary braggadocio. The lyrics aren't exactly from the Compton streets, but they aren't hokey J5 positive shit either. There's just enough poetry about Eyedea's love psychoses and his 9-to-5 angst to keep it fresh. Indeed, Eyedea seems to have listened to his label boss Slug quite a bit: long breaths followed by short ones; echoed themes of bitterness, loneliness, lost love; an innate ability to tell a story; even the basic tone of his voice; it all mimics Mr. Daley.
Rather than exploding the hip hop genre, Eyedea and Abilities have chosen to be as creative as possible within it. There aren't that many pairs of one DJ and one MC left in hip hop, and these two bounce off one another as well as any duo currently working the circuits. Eyedea's style may alienate some, and Rhymesayers could do much worse than to release Abilities' beats sans vocals.
Dave Segal
It begins with battle-champion MC Eyedea understating, "E&A in the house, bringing you some of that good hip-hop music."
With turntablist Abilities supporting Eyedea's silvery-tongued verses that braid braggadocio with thoughfulness, E&A renovate the old school with quirky inventiveness and audacious skills. Abilities fuses skewed funk beats with elastic jazz bass lines and effusive piano motifs that keep your noggin noddin' while spicing up things with warped instrumentation and wild-ass scratches. Over the disc's 13 tracks, Eyedea's flow changes up as often as Abilities' always-fascinating sample collages. And on "Man vs. Ape," the duo conduct the finest creation/evolution debate ever waxed on a hip hop release.

Wale Threatens Complex Over Their "50 Best Albums" List
Published: December 13, 2013
Complex recently released their "50 Best Albums Of 2013″ list and one of the projects that didn't make was Wale's album "The Gifted". It appears that the MMG artist didn't take too kindly to being snubbed as he called up Complex to give them a piece of his mind. He started off by saying they had a personal bias against him but then snapped and started yelling and threatening them.

It has been months since the global Occupy movement began in New York and spread across the world.
In London, protesters are still camped out near St Paul's Cathedral in the hub of the city. Their tented compound has begun to look like a permanent fixture, even though its size has not grown.
The movement needs to gather more traction, and get more people involved. Some of the organisers have even discussed turning it into a political party.
For now, the movement's tactics remain the same, but with these new ambitions, Occupy London could soon be evolving into something else.

Longitudinal evolution of unidentified bright objects in children with neurofibromatosis-1.

|American journal of medical genetics. Part A
|Date Published
|2004 Aug 30
Neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF-1) is the most common autosomal dominant disorder affecting the central nervous system. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has revealed distinctive T2-weighted hyperintense foci (termed unidentified bright objects, UBOs) which appear to represent spongiform changes in the white matter. Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses suggest that UBOs disappear over time; however, none of these studies have examined comprehensively these foci. We conducted a quantitative MRI longitudinal study of number of affected regions, number of UBOs per region, and UBO volume per region, in a sample of 12 children with NF-1. We applied semi-automatic morphometric methods and comprehensive statistical approaches, within a detailed anatomical parcellation framework. Our data demonstrate that, despite a similar UBO regional distribution (e.g., prevalent globus pallidus/internal capsule (GP/IC) location), UBO evolution was more complex than previously reported. In some subjects, the total number of UBO-occupied locations demonstrated a decrease between approximately ages 7 and 12 years, followed by a progressive increase during adolescence. This pattern was also found for UBO number and/or volume for all regions, with the exception of the cerebellar hemispheres. This REGIONAL distinction may reflect differences in white matter structure between affected long tract fiber bundles and that of cerebral and cerebellar myelinated fibers. The findings are also discussed in the context of previous MR and behavioral studies. We conclude that studies like the present one, in association with other MR modalities, are necessary to characterize more completely the nature and evolution of UBOs and their role in the cognitive phenotype of NF-1.

Photos Show Purported 5.5-inch iPhone 6L Front Panel, Battery
New photos showing various parts of the purported 5.5-inch iPhone 6L have showed up on Chinese website Apple Daily. The website claims that the larger of the two new iPhones will be called the iPhone 6L. The site has provided images of the front panel, battery and the supposed logic board. While we've seen a seemingly steady stream of part leaks for the 4.7-inch model, parts from the rumored 5.5-inch model have been sparse, calling into question the veracity of rumors that it would launch next month. The front display panel is shown next to the 4.7-inch model. It has the appearances of being narrow.

Extreme Close-Ups Of iPhone 6 Parts Show Tapered Display, New Buttons
Just weeks away from the official introduction of the next generation iPhone(s), new high resolution photos have emerged that provide a close-up look at the power button, mute switch, SIM card tray and display. Feld & Volk, a company that specializes in building custom designed iPhones, are the source of the new images. They have previously shared photos and video of the rear shell, which match up with the most recent iPhone 6 rear shell photos.

We're a Sporty Bunch
There are a few aching, sunburned, limbs here at Technophobia Towers this week, as quite a few Technophobes faced the heat and ran marathons at the weekend.
We'd like to acknowledge the heroic effort of all those who ran, whilst the rest of us were sunbathing! So, in no particular order, congratulations to:
Niki Davies, our Accounts Exec, ran the Edinburgh Marathon in 5hr 47mins. Doing so, she raised an incredible £1,500 for Bowel Cancer UK, in memory of her friend. Despite a sunburned neck, Niki made it back into the office on Monday morning with a big smile on her face; "The last 100 metres were very emotional and when we finally crossed the finishing line the aching in my legs was replaced by the massive sense of achievement at completing my first marathon and raising £1500 for Bowel Cancer UK in memory of James."
Niki is raising money for Bowel Cancer UK all year, and you can find out more by going to her fundraising page.
Richard Popple, TP Java Developer, also ran the Edinburgh Marathon, completing it in 5hr 47 mins. He's pleased to announce that he completed two goals; "the first was to finish, the second was not to be overtaken by a pantomime horse!"
TP Account Director, Cam Spillman, ran the Sheffield Half Marathon in 2hr 6 mins, and whilst he didn't raise funds himself, he has asked that anybody who wishes to sponsor him does so through his Mum's page.
UX Designer, Chris Taylor, completed the Sheffield Half Marathon on Sunday, and whilst he's unsure of the time he completed it in, he says; "it was easy!" so we expect to see him doing the Iron Man Challenge soon.
Finally, Project Manager, Jon Rhodes, ran the Sheffield Half Marathon in a fantastic 1hr 57mins in the blistering heat. Jon's thoughts on the day? "I actually thought I was going to melt."
On behalf of all at Technophobia, a huge "Well done!" to everyone who took part in the weekend's marathons. You have our unwavering admiration!

If there is one city in the world where you might expect to find happiness, it is Anaheim, California. It is the home of Disneyland, the second most popular amusement park in the world.
From Anaheim Disney has for decades been selling an image of fantasy to millions of visitors every year.
"To me it just looked like our happiest place on earth had just turned into Afghanistan."
- Amber Stephens, a local journalist
But over the summer, anger that had been growing in communities living in the shadows of this multi-billion dollar tourist industry began spiralling out of control.
In July 2012, two young Latino men were shot and killed by Anaheim police. What followed was some of the worst civil unrest this city has ever seen.
Protests against police brutality were met with riot-clad gear police and rubber bullets, further fuelling violence and bringing national attention to the home of Disneyland.
The images shocked the country but left unanswered questions: Why did it happen? Will it happen elsewhwere in the US? And are there two Anaheims?Fault Lines examines the underlying causes of the recent unrest in Anaheim.

Today's games
First Round
At Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Indianapolis
No. 8 Iowa vs. No. 9 Illinois 10:30 a.m., BTN
No. 5 Indiana vs. No. 12 Penn State, 1 p.m., BTN
No. 7 Northwestern vs. No. 10 Minnesota, 4 p.m., ESPN2
No. 6 Purdue vs. No. 11 Nebraska, 6:30 p.m., ESPN2
Updated: April 10, 2012 11:29AM
This Big Ten Tournament, the first with 12 teams and with only four teams receiving a bye, could be the most unpredictable.
To wit, Michigan State, Michigan and Ohio State all tied for the regular-season title with a 13-5 record. And there were three other ties in the standings.
"This is one of the better years we've had, and people think it's wide-open because you had three teams that won a share of the Big Ten crown at 13-5, which nobody thought the winner of this league was going to have five losses — I don't think there's a person out there that believed the winner was going to have five losses," Purdue coach Matt Painter said. "Now we have three teams, so it makes the people that were 12-6, 11-7, 10-8 feel that they were a lot closer to winning the Big Ten than maybe they thought they were going to be to start the season, or maybe some of those teams felt like they could be in the hunt for it.
"But I think it comes down to matchups, how do you match up against that team? Your frame of mind — you've got some guys on every team that want it to get over with. That might sound crazy, but they're young people. It's going to be the teams that go in there, and the guys playing five to 10 minutes, and the guys on the bench pulling for their teammates, they're out there fighting, and they want to win. They really want to win, they don't want it over with. And those teams really seem to advance in tournament-style play."
So here's one breakdown as play begins on Thursday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse:
No. 1 seed Michigan St.
Record: 24-7, 13-5 Big Ten
Skinny: Lew Wallace graduate Branden Dawson's torn ACL certainly is a blow to the Spartans. But they still have Draymond Green, and a significant amount of talent.
Osipoff's odds: 4-1
No. 2 Michigan
Record: 23-8, 13-5
Skinny: The Wolverines were in a position to have to root for Ohio State in order to get a share of the title? Say it ain't so. With playmakers such as Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr., and Chesterton grad Zack Novak serving as the glue, the Wolverines will be a tough out.
Osipoff's odds: 8-1
No. 3 Ohio State
Record: 25-6, 13-5
Skinny: Perhaps Jared Sullinger hasn't been as dominant this season for the Buckeyes. But he's obviously still a matchup nightmare. And if William Buford is hitting, look out.
Osipoff's odds: 3-1
No. 4 Wisconsin
Record: 23-8, 12-6
Skinny: Ho-hum, another season, another top-four finish for the Badgers — that's 11 in as many seasons under Bo Ryan. Don't overlook Jordan Taylor and Co.
Osipoff's odds: 8-1
No. 5 Indiana
Record: 27-7, 11-7
Skinny: Quite simply, Cody Zeller has made every player on the Hoosiers better. And any number of those players have improved on their own. This group has a legitimate chance.
Osipoff's odds: 6-1
No. 6 Purdue
Record: 20-11, 10-8
Skinny: If the Boilermakers are making perimeter shots, they're dangerous. If not — without a low-post presence — not so much. Pretty simple, right?
Osipoff's odds: 12-1
No. 7 Northwestern
Record: 18-12, 8-10
Skinny: That excruciatingly elusive NCAA Tournament bid appears to be in reach for John Shurna and the Wildcats. They can't afford a loss to Minnesota. And a win against Michigan would all but seal the deal.
Osipoff's odds: 20-1
No. 8 Iowa
Record: 16-15, 8-10
Skinny: The Hawkeyes seem to be on the upswing under Fran McCaffery. Relatively quietly, Matt Gatens has had a really nice career, and a really, really nice season.
Osipoff's odds: 75-1
No. 9 Illinois
Record: 17-14, 6-12
Skinny: Seriously, don't the Illini have too much talent to have this poor of a record? It's hard to imagine they'll figure it out at this stage. Unfortunately, it seems Bruce Weber has virtually no chance to return next season.
Osipoff's odds: 75-1
No. 10 Minnesota
Record: 18-13, 6-12
Skinny: Not to talk about the past too much, but Trevor Mbakwe's knee injury pretty much ruined the Gophers' season. They seemed to be hanging in there for a while after an 0-4 conference start, but wins against Nebraska sandwiched six straight losses (albeit against some of the top teams).
Osipoff's odds: 150-1
No. 11 Nebraska
Record: 12-17, 4-14
Skinny: If the Cornhuskers' guard-heavy lineup gets hot, an upset isn't totally, completely outside the realm of possibility. But their first stay in this event figures to be a short one.
Osipoff's odds: 350-1
No. 12 Penn State
Record: 12-19, 4-14
Skinny: Tim Frazier is a heck of a player. But he can carry the Nittany Lions only so far.
Osipoff's odds: 325-1

The AD8123 is a triple, high speed, differential receiver and equalizer that compensates for the transmission losses of UTP and coaxial cables up to 300 meters in length. Various gain stages are summed together to best approximate the inverse frequency response of the cable. Logic circuitry inside the AD8123 controls the gain functions of the individual stages so that the lowest noise can be achieved at short-to-medium cable lengths. This technique optimizes its performance for low noise, short-to-medium range applications, while at the same time provides the high gain bandwidth required for long cable equalization (up to 300 meters). Each channel features a high impedance differential input that is ideal for interfacing directly with the cable.
The AD8123 has three control pins for optimal cable compensation, as well as an output offset adjust pin. Two voltage-controlled pins are used to compensate for different cable lengths; the VPEAK pin controls the amount of high frequency peaking and the VGAIN pin adjusts the broadband flat gain, which compensates for the low frequency flat cable loss.
For added flexibility, an optional pole adjustment pin, VPOLE, allows movement of the pole locations, allowing for the compensation of different gauges and types of cable as well as variations between different cables and/or equalizers. The VOFFSET pin allows the dc voltage at the output to be adjusted, adding flexibility for dc-coupled systems.
The AD8123 is available in a 6 mm × 6 mm, 40-lead LFCSP and is rated to operate over the extended temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.

Date 2004-08-30 Availability unrestricted AbstractReading comprehension is one of the basic learning skills that need to be learned in an early school years. The English language is generally introduced as early as Grade 2 level in township primary schools. Township learners are at most exposed to English as the language of learning and teaching (LoLt) for three years (Grade 5-7) before entering secondary school. Most township primary school learners enter secondary school with poor English language development and poor language proficiency. Reading comprehension is one of the problems experienced by most township secondary school learners. Lack of reading comprehension skills negatively affect their ability to constuct meaning from what they are reading. Reading support techniques or strategies need to be sought and developed to address the reading comprehension problems experienced by learners especially from the disadvantaged enviroment. ind it difficult to understand or interpret what they are reading.
This research focused on the use of the imaging technique on a learning suport in developing reading comprehension skills of township secondary school learners. The emphasis was mainly on how this technique can be adapted in order to enhance its mastery in developing reading comprehension skills. This imaging technique is seen as a feasible technique in a holistic approach to develop reading comprehension skills. The imaging technique makes use of the formation of multisensory pictures during the reading process which are valuable in the independent construction of meaning. The use of imaging for reading enhances active learning and memory.
The research was conducted with learners in Grade 9 in a secondary school in a Pretoria township. The participants in the research group experienced reading comprehension problems, lack of English language development and difficulty in the use of English as the (LoLT). Some of the learners in the research group appeared to be experiencing intellectual learning disability. The practical implementation of the imaging technique was done in twenty sessions. A control group attended twenty reading support sessions using a dictionary method, for the same texts. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of the results are performed and discussed.

The Pinot arrived later than expected on Saturday and conflicted with social plans, so tonight became my first shoot of the project. It was a cool one. To maximize skin exposure for color extraction while the juice is relatively watery, Matt is slowing down the fermentation by cooling the must with dry ice. This lead to all kinds of nifty effects, from clouds of CO2 drifting over the cap to violent, boil-like bubbling once the ice was fully submerged. It was difficult to turn these fireworks into successful photographs, but it was great to watch in person.
One thing I hadn't considered before tonight was that Matt might be camera shy, which could've undermined this whole series. But it seems he's not at all. So while the shoot was a failure photographically, I'm excited to have started on the project.

Adding @VALDOSTA.EDU to the Safe Senders List in Outlook 2010
Mail from Valdosta State University e-mail addresses is being sent to your Junk Mail folder.
While we recommend Outlook as an e-mail client, we do not run a university-specific version of Outlook 2010. Thus, Outlook 2010 will treat mail from VSU e-mail addresses like e-mail from non-VSU e-mail address. Thus, it applies the same junk mail filter rules, such as filtering for short e-mails or e-mails without titles, to e-mail from VSU addresses. To prevent this from occuring, please take the steps listed below:
Step 1:
Open Microsoft Outlook.
Step 2:
Click on the Home ribbon.
Then, click the drop-down arrow next to Junk.
Finally, click Junk E-mail Options in the drop-down menu that appears.
Step 3:
The Junk E-mail Options window will appear.
Click the Safe Senders tab.
Then, click the Add... button.
Step 4:
Type @valdosta.edu into the field that appears.
Then, click the OK button.
Step 5:
Click the OK button.
You have successfully added the @valdosta.edu domain to your Safe Senders list. This will ensure that e-mail from Valdosta State University e-mail addresses will not be accidently placed in your Junk Mail folder.
If you have problems when trying these instructions, or if you have other questions concerning your VSU e-mail account, please contact the Information Technology Helpdesk at 229-245-4357 or send an e-mail to email@example.com.
Please note that our work request system can only accept emails sent from a VSU email address.
