By Automobile Magazine 12/10/2013
Tesla continues to ramp up production. It has also added a Performance Plus trim line to the 2014 Tesla Model S, which features a retuned suspension and staggered tires (wider in the back than the front). Tesla claims that the 2014 Tesla Model S handles better and achieves slightly better range...Read more
The 2014 Tesla Model S is that rare vehicle that actually lives up to its hype. It's an electric car that offers enough range for daily driving while also matching the driving dynamics of European performance sedans. Not bad for a car company that came into existence only a decade ago.
Automobile Magazine named the Tesla Model S our 2013 Automobile of the Year. We did not take this decision lightly. More than one editor wondered at the time whether we were recognizing the next Model T or the next De Lorean. Despite those reservations, we ultimately agreed -- unanimously -- that it would be wrong not to recognize this once-in-a-generation car.
Simply put, the 2014 Tesla Model S is brilliant. It's quick, it handles well, it's well designed inside and out, and it's safe. Oh yes, and it's electric, powered by lithium-ion batteries that sit under the floor. The cabin is very roomy, and with the optional rear-facing seats it'll seat seven. We especially like the gigantic, easy-to-use touchscreen.
Pricing roughly parallels that of the Porsche Panamera, only you're paying for battery range as well as performance. About $80,000 (before tax credits) buys you a base model with an estimated 208-mile range and enough power to hit 60 mph in 5.9 seconds. For another $10,000, Tesla offers an 85 kilowatt-hour battery that extends the range to an estimated 265 miles. The performance model, which starts at $93,830 (again before tax credits), uses that same 85-kWh battery and has the same 265-mile range but blasts to 60 mph in a silent 4.2 seconds. That's not to say you'll go unnoticed. The Model S has received enough press coverage and yet remains so scarce that you'll attract onlookers wherever you drive.
Any discussion of the Model S must include two provisos. The first is range anxiety. Unlike a plug-in hybrid like the Chevrolet Volt, the Model S does not have a range-extending gasoline engine. Although the Model S, in any form, has enough juice for worry-free errand running, it isn't the right car for someone who regularly travels long distances. Tesla is lessening these limitations with a network of quick-charging stations it calls Superchargers.
The second concern lies in the simple fact that Tesla is a young company producing a very complex car. Although Tesla has silenced skeptics who said it would never produce more than a few cars, it still can't offer the worry-free ownership experience of an established automaker. Expect a wait to receive your car, and beware that the growing dealer network has some holes. That said, those who experience the 2014 Tesla Model S may find it worth the gamble. It is a truly exceptional automobile.

Giving Back: A Driehaus Way of Life
It was a brisk, sunny afternoon when Inese Driehaus invited me into her home. The sun beamed into the exquisitely decorated living room, where we sat in front of a warm fireplace as Ms. Driehaus reflected on the day she met her husband, Richard Driehaus, the founder and chairman of Driehaus Capital Management.
"I met Richard at a finance seminar in London about four years ago," she said. "We began long-distance dating, meeting in London and Paris, and he asked me to come to Chicago a year later."
Before eventually moving to Chicago, Ms. Driehaus lived in her hometown of Riga, Latvia, where she earned a bachelor's degree in psychology and owned My Lady salon. "Being in Riga, I felt like a big fish in a small pond, so I wanted to move on, experience Europe and continue my studies," she explains. "I sold the business and went to King's College in London for my master's degree in psychology. I was always interested in that subject and had practices in hospitals and clinics, but I couldn't see it being my profession. I'm very sensitive and take everything to heart, so I'd go home crying and think about how people are having such a hard time with things. When I graduated, I thought, 'What's next?' Then a friend of mine invited me to work at his finance company, which is why I was at the seminar eight months later. And after meeting Richard, that was the start of my transition from London to Chicago."
While living here for the last three years, Ms. Driehaus has become involved in the Driehaus Museum. "At this stage in my life, I feel a connection to art and architecture. Richard and I often attend auctions to obtain objects for his collection," she says. "I'm interested in 19th Century American and European art, and Richard has an extremely good eye for it. He receives catalogs from Sotheby's and Christie's, and we'll travel around the country and to Europe to see the items in person."
Ms. Driehaus and her husband Richard are also known for their charity work. "Philanthropy takes up much of our time," she admits. "We're involved with Prince Charles' foundation in England and also work with families in Latvia. It's a small country, and unfortunately the population is declining because people can't afford to have more than one child. So we're helping families by giving them basic necessities like warm clothes and school supplies. In Latvia, we help struggling students with tuition. We're currently working with two medical students and one musician."
In Chicago, Ms. Driehaus is becoming more involved with local charities. "I'm looking forward to doing more for The Richard H. Driehaus Foundation, which is run by Sunny Fischer – she's wonderful! I'm really interested in working with the performing arts, and Richard's foundation is very involved with theater and music programs."
The Driehauses also host charity events like the Driehaus Awards for Fashion Excellence – an annual fashion show competition through the Driehaus Design Initiative where the top 25 students from local colleges show their designs Project Runway-style and compete for prize money, including a top prize of $5,000. Earlier this year, the 11th annual fashion show raised more than $100,000 to support fashion programs at Columbia College Chicago, Dominican University, The Illinois Institute of Art, The International Academy of Design & Technology and The School of Art Institute of Chicago. "Young designers are so talented and this is a great way to help them come forward and get early recognition," shares Ms. Driehaus, who admits philanthropy is a way of life for her family.
"The idea of performing charity work really started when Richard was in grammar school," reveals Ms. Driehaus. "The nuns taught him how important it is to give back, and I share that same view. I've learned if one is fortunate, there's always an opportunity to help someone in need. It doesn't matter if you do it with your skills, advice or finances. Philanthropy is a big tradition in our family."

Adam Belue
My name is Adam Belue, I'm from Fall River, MA, and I'm a sports fanatic. Sports is basically all I watch, all I talk about, and all I think about. Other than girls of course. Especially Taylor Swift. I've played tennis for about two-thirds of my life, though thanks to a knee injury I can't play right now. I will watch just about any and every sport, and even those fringe sports that aren't really sports like professional bowling and poker (which I'm watching as I write this). I'm a huge Green Bay Packers fan, and love the other local sports teams besides the Patriots. I've been following hockey for about five years. I fell in love with watching the Bruins after seeing a game live at the Garden. If you've never seen a hockey game live I would totally recommend doing so. It is a completely different game live and by far the most fun I have ever had at a live event (other than a Taylor Swift concert... yeah I'm obsessed with her... just giving a heads-up since she will be mentioned in my pieces it's inevitable that will happen). It should be glaringly obvious by reading this profile that I am pretty sarcastic, and I will try to bring some of my humor to my pieces on the site.
Let's go Bruins... we want the Cup!
Adam Niemeyer
As a life-long NASCAR fan that grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, I've often dreamed of covering the drivers I grew up watching on TV. In 2009 I began to do so for Cincinnati TV stations at Kentucky Speedway and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I am a Mark Martin fan but cover all the fun stories from the garage area and often opine on the sport from a fan and media member's perspective.

Native New Englander who grew up just outside of Boston and have lived in New England for about half of my life. I grew up listening to some of the great play-by-play announcers, including Curt Gowdy, Ned Martin, Fred Cusick, Bob Wilson, Bob Starr, Gil Santos and the legendary "Swish" Johnny Most.
Most pleasant memories involve attending Boston sporting events since I was 9 years old. Two highlights:
- 1999 All-Star game with the memorable Ted Williams tribute
- 2003 ALCS and being behind the Red Sox dougout when Don Zimmer lost his head and rushed Pedro Martinez.
Grew up watching Bobby Orr revolutionize the game of hockey...and Bill Russell change how basketball was played forever!
Have written for TruFan.com, 365SportsReport.com and now happy to be writing Patriots, Bruins & Red Sox articles for CLNSRadio.com.
Actively involved in the broadcast of sports from 1967 thru 2004. My personal favorite was interviewing Ted Williams in 1976.

Also did play-by-play & PA work for the Kinston Blue Jays of the Carolina League. Had HOF pitcher Bob Feller as my color commentator on one game.

Charles Morgan Hailey III, known to all as "Chip" died suddenly early Saturaday morning at 1 a.m. at The Virginia Hospital Center. He was 69.
Chip was born in Washington, D.C. to his parents Charles Morgan Hailey, Jr. and Nancy H. Hailey. They lived in D.C. and attended The First Baptist Church of the City of Washington, D.C. Chip was born with cerebral palsy and was one of the first poster children for Cerebral Palsy. As a poster boy he attended a special event as at the White House, where he sat on Margaret Truman's lap. This event was even more memorable, since he had newly polished shoes he left stains on Miss Truman's lap, making his "mark on the Truman Administration", as he would later joke to friends.
The Hailey family moved to Falls Church and Chip attended The Jefferson School on Cherry Street (now the location of The Child Development Center). Later he attended The Madison School (now the site of the Sunrise Senior Living facilitiy) and George Mason High School.
As a young child he learned to love classical music. His mother's youngest sister came to live with them at their Ridge Place home while she waited for her husband who was a POW in the Korean War for 4 years. During that time Chip was exposed to the sister's love of classical music and Chip carried this love throughout his life with an extensive library collection of performances and classical music recordings.
As Chip grew up he became fascinated with audio-visual equipment and was an assistant at the school taking equipment to and from the classroom and setting it up for teachers. Ever since that time he has helped countless efforts in and around the City by loaning his filming, video and audio equipment, especially PA systems and special microphones and his services to anyone who needed help, whether he knew them or not.
Chip was a "family man" and was devoted to his family and his church and later on the Falls Church Television Station for the next 30 years. Chip as one of the founding members in the early '80's and he served on the Board of the Falls Church Cable Access Corporation since its inception, as President for several terms, and then recently as a member of the Board. He was a pivotal presence assuring smooth transitions during staffing changes, new equipment purchases, and help for all producers and volunteers. He could often be found at his home studio working on yet another video project or helping others by transferring film to DVD. The photo is of Chip receiving his second Ripley Award in Fall of 2010 for his outstanding contributions to FCCTV. The Ripley Award is the premier achievement award.
Chip loved Falls Church history and would often recount stories of the "old days" here in the City and have personal stories of City leaders like Harry Wells, Don Frady, Ken Burnette, and many others. There is a one-hour interview conducted by Dave Eckert with Chip Hailey that can still be seen on FCCTV and is also on DVD in the Mary Riley Styles Library, where Chip recalls some of his favorite people and places he loved. He enjoyed the rare perspective of a long-term resident; what changed and what remained the same. Chip's dad, Charles Morgan Hailey II was Mayor from 1959- 1969. Chip and the family would help his Dad campaign and pass out flyers around town. Chip believed in civic responsibility and service.
The Falls Church Cable Access Corporation and its FCCTV members will be hosting a memorial at its annual meeting to honor Chip's many contributions for over 3 decades. Please check FCCTV.net for details.
Visitations will be held at Murphy Funeral Home, 1102 W. Broad Street, Falls Church on Friday, September 23, 2011 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. A memorial service will be held on October 23rd at 2 pm at The First Baptist Church of the City of Washington D.C. which was moved from Philadelphia to Washington D.C. when Washington became of the capital of the United States in 1802. The Church is located at 1328 16th Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036 Internment will be at the Ashcamp Memorial Cemetary in Keysville, Virginia where Chip will be buried at the family plot.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to THE CHIP HAILEY FUND at The First Baptist Church, 1328 16th Street, NW. Washington, D.C. 20036 .

In the window of the pigment store where I work part-time there are banks of display cases full of colored pigments. I've been wanting to record them and then come home and try to match the colors with paint.
which by the way, is an old enamel kitchen tray found on Ebay.
And then to match the colors swatches on a test sheet of paper. The next step is to make a painting.
My watercolor teacher, David Dewey, used to say, the painting is first of all, set up on your palette.
Get your colors down there first. I used to take a ton of pictures of his palette mixings.
Then put it down on the paper.
A client of Wendy Brandes Jewelry designed this for herself using a poison ring bezel. Claus Oldenburg of the Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture, said he does most of his idea sketching at the dinner table. Wouldn't this palette ring be a tremendous help painting in Maine?

Laugh With Comedian Ken Davis
02.18.13 |
Christian comedian, Ken Davis, tells hilarious stories and reveals unique perspectives on what it means to enjoy life as a Christian. Family Life will once again be partnering with Ken in March at these locations.
Ken is a nationally-known author and comedian whose radio program "Lighten Up!" is played on Family Life as well as across the globe. But it's Ken's love for life and standup comedy that make him unforgettable!
"My humor is an observational kind of humor. It's about my family, about the people I meet. I don't write jokes, I don't do one-liners. I just tell stories about people. Life itself is rich with humor, and comedy has woven itself into everything I do."
When Ken Davis performs, his passion for life and faith come through loud and clear. He uses his God-given gifts of humor and storytelling to help make important messages go deep. Comedy is a powerful communication tool.
"We live in a humorless society. Everybody is offended by everything. And sadly, we Christians often lead that flag-waving army. Comedy gives us a way to tell a story and reveal truth that, if done right, is non-threatening to listeners. It's disarming. Much of my comedy is self-realization—making fun of myself, which makes it safe for the listener to learn the same things I am learning. Comedy opens peoples' hearts to hear God's truth."
Join Family Life and Ken Davis for a performance rich with life's most essential ingredients: God and laughter!

What has he done that was so bad? How can anyone hate someone so sexy? Is he not allowed to return to the team only or did they ban him from his country?

Im Fucking Sick Of Cristiano Ronaldo, The Way He Treated Wayne Rooney..fcking He Deserves To Be Bashed When He Returns To Manutd.
He Can Go Move To Real Madrid For All I Care
GOD ppl get over ronaldo hes a crybaby and cheater now im starting to hate him, loved him at manutd but i see there is hotter players than just him

If you hate him already, why are you still browsing this thread? Looks like you still can't resist him
WAH-MBULANCE is on the way for the people bitching
Threads are for expressing opinions, some like him, some thinks he's a wuss. You can't control what people think of the gal.Originally Posted by RKO85
What is really silly is the fact that most of you guys like him for his looks and couldn't care less about what kind of a player he is. I bet most of you don't even know the rules of soccer.
There there wussy! Soccer isn't for you gal, it's a sport for men!
LIVERPOOL FC - You'll Never Walk Alone!
Good luck to the little shit when he comes back to the UK.
I wonder if he'll ever wear a Man U shirt again??
Very well said!!Originally Posted by D-Base
I admit he's not ugly, but his arrogant attitude is a major turn-off for me.
Obviously a fake, but clever. Matter of fact, if i remember correctly, the body belongs to one of the Spanish Big Brother guys who, himself, was the subject of quite a lot of photos and talk in the forums a few months ago.
Vote for Ronaldo!
I've got a much better idea... I wish the two guys on either side would get out and leave Big Phil Scolari for me to fool around with...Originally Posted by PHOENIXGMAN1982
Damn he's hot - what a daddy
How do you like them apples bitch!
Cheaty squirmy greasy loser is OUT of the world cup!
World 1 - Portugal/Ronaldo 0
Did anyone hear the BOOOOOOS whenever he had the ball?
dont let the door hit you on the way out chris!
why is everyone so hard on him, so he takes a couple (well a lot) of dives
so he gets rooney sent off so what. im sure a lot of people 'booing' him will be man utd fans and if he stays with man u if he scores a couple of goals in the leauge im sure the fans will be cheering him then.
stop being so FÚ©?ÍN Jealous of his talent.
And if you got the chance you'd fÚ©k him!
the only way i would have sex with him, is if he had a bag over his head... or facing the other way.
he is a jackass, on and off the pitch. i have seen interviews with him where he brags (in portugese to a british interviewer) and brags about how good he is. then there is the whole diving, shouting and whinging thing. i really hope he falls to earth hard.
Put his head in the pillows and fuck him all nightOriginally Posted by youdontknow
And he is a pretty good player.
Haha, So glad I;m not english and can take defeat on the chin rather than clutch at anything rather than admit England are pretty much just shit.
well, yeah, i guess i could it that way. wipe that false grin off his face
If you can't win fair you don't deserve to win!! Diving and purposely getting players sent off is bad sportsmanship.
I'm pleased that they are out and good to see the little shit crying at the end
Yeah England were shit......they played better when Rooney was sent off! I wonder if he'll calm down after this like Beckham did, time will tell.Originally Posted by curious_1980
I'm english and i know that the england squad are shit.Originally Posted by curious_1980
I dont like people holding a grudge over a game
Originally Posted by curious_1980

yeah we lost, that doesn't mean we are a shit squad. Portugal couldn't defeat us when they had one more man than, i just dont like Ronaldo, on the pitch or off, i dont like him playing for portugal, and i dont like him playing for man utd
i know it doesn't excuse him but he's only 21 let him grow up a bit.
if he's still doing it in a couple of years when he is more mature then fine fuck him!
The England squad is not a bad squad but they just cant work together.
Ronaldo is much easier on the eyes than Beckham and definitely Rooney.
He did the world a favor.

NO ONE, and i repeat no one has the nerves to say that rooney is easy on the eyes. and the arguement between beckham & ronaldo will never be solved, but at the end of the day, we should merrit them on their sportsmanship. Yes Rooney knows how to have a Bitchfit when things aren't going his way, but he is a scouser, thats what they do.
Beckham is a good man, he isn't the best player on the team, but he works hard and encourages the other players...
Ronaldo, is a diving, cheating, crying, manipulative player. the sooner the rest of the world realises this the better.
he may be hot, but his actions on pitch are inexcusable!
Rooney is a sight
Beckham is getting old now
Ronaldo is 21, has a great body, has quite a nice face and a nice ass
and a good footballer to go with it
Ronaldo is not the great beauty of 4 years ago. Time marches on. Who knows if he will be in the Next World Cup. I DOUBT IT WITH ALL THAT HAS GONE ON! Too bad he could not have left in a more glorious state and not such a humble, lowly one...... below his dignity to the great name he had become. I'm sure that hurts a hell of a lot!Originally Posted by youdontknow
I don't think Ronaldo would ever have to beg for sex from a woman, a man or anything in between. He is an ultimate stud despite things that have happened.
Ronaldo is incredibly fast and a very talented player. But like I said in the other soccer post I'm please by their defeat today. However, I must say that England was the worst of the last 8 remaining teams, while they have more Talent then Ukraine, Ukraine played much better soccer as a team.
Yea he's arrogant but many great people are however in more mellow ways. However I'm sure today was a "reality check" for him. Portugal was playing way over their head. They were really no better then England. ANYONE CAN WIN IN PENALTY KICKS, thats why most of the world hates them.
I prey the final dosen't go into penalty kicks, I'll never forget the heartbreak of a far superior Italy loosing to Brazil on penality kicks in the finals.
ronaldo is a really talented player and im not going to hold a grudge just he scord the winning penelty and got rooney sent off
(i could be repeating myself again but damm id fÚ©k him)
When one likes a team and a particular player who the hell would not feel fucked when things go badly. It's one of those things we can do nothing about, nothing but stare in horror!
I am glad these Ronaldo posts will soon dissappear. These are worse than the brokeback threads.

Oh and the occasional hot posts! like this!
ronaldo im so fucking sick of him...hes not hot anymore, hes ugly and hes a diving cheater scum.
I had no clue who this guy is but then again I don't follow football much. I thought this pic is classic though...
Originally Posted by D-Base

just because he dives why does that make him scum
You mean soccer players dive!?! No way. Unreal... we must alert the church elders.
As for Ronaldo... I think he just pissed off a few English fans during this World Cup.
He's a scum and he's always been a diver and cheater!!! it's good that Portugal lost to France so he can go back to Manchester, where Rooney's waiting to stick one on him.
So what if he got rooney a red card on purpose? It's the WORLD CUP. he did NOTHING illegal and I think it was good strategy.
"baby tell me if you like it"
I tell ya then, I like it, n also wanna eat it and lick it (all his body that is)
God, I so wanted to take him home and hug and kiss him (also a quick fondle) when he was crying in Euro 2004, I mean who wouldn't want this gorgeous guy with you. The pic actually still brings tears to my eyes when I look at it. He's as cute and adorable as these two puppies
P.S. Kuja, here's a nice wee vid from youtube for us!
My Humps I certainly want my tongue in those humps! (after a good wash though)
He's a doll I'll eat him with peanut butter and jelly yum!
Another Ronny lover!Originally Posted by Gan0ndorf
I really think we should have a forum on here for just the fans.
All this negative comments is not called for, especially when he is such a talented footballer and is just playing a game he loves. He does not deserve to get booed at.
Thought I'd put a pic on to cheer me up now
Phoenix x
P.S. To all the fans :thewave:
And to all the nasty people
What! i love ronaldo...back in manu, since im a manu fan...but this time im enemies with him since i dont go for portugal..once he's back at manu..ill fall in love with him again
and anyway ronaldo will remain at manu, fuck off him going to real madrid...with fat ronaldo...fucking vomit

im english, im not going to bear a grudge if the english fans boo him fuck them!

(tee-hee he's yummy)
Dude the kid is young he IS a good soccer player and he knows it... Whats not to brag about?!?
Agreed! Add me to the list of peopel who would love to suck on his balls. LOL. He is GORGEOUS. Seriously one of the hottest most beauttiful athletes I have ever seen. He's right up there for me with Brady Quinn...mmm what a nice sandwich!

Time to step up the voltage with this Arduino Relay Board. The Arduino platform is a great way to control lights, buzzers, displays and more - but what if you have a device that doesn't run on the Arduino's native 5 volts? One simple way to do it is to use the RobotGeek Relay. This little relay board will use a signal from a 5v microcontroller to make a mechanical connection. This connection is physically seprated from the arduino, meaning you can connect devices that have different voltages up to it! These relays can handle up to 5 amps at 250 volts
This Arduino Relay board has the standard RobotGeek three pin connection so it plugs right into the RobotGeek Sensor Shield to get you up and running immediatly.
The RobotGeek Relay can be run in 2 ways. Connect your external device through the NO(Normally Open) terminal, and the electro-mechanical connection will be made whenever you send a 5v signal to the relay board. Connect your external device through the NC(Normally Closed) and the external device will be normally on, turning off whenever the relay receives a signal.
As with all RobotGeek sensors, the hole mounting pattern is on a 1x1 CM grid so they easily mount to the RobotGeek Workbenches or any other RobotGeek kit.
Don't forget to pick up RobotGeek Sensor Cables if you need some!
DC Liquid Pump
Price: $24.95
Solenoid Valve

I did a simple photo portfolio (just a listing) and I'd like some review (ideas) about how to display pictures.I did think of adding some (short) description and also some exif details but I cannot find a place.
My idea, not yet final:* Keep the lightbox and an extra button, near the Download, that will open a lightbox, only with text-details.Clicking the picture will still display the lightbox with the photo.What do you think, as a first-viewer?
Request: if you can provide some user-friendly examples, with galleries that respect my design (showing just pictures on the page) I'd be grateful.
The website is http://photos.vectorialpx.net
You have a very nice selection of images but my personal preference is to have a light background. Go with white strips instead of black. I like the fact that you have placed tags at the top of the site for easy access to images of certain category. It is not clear who the author of these images are and under what terms these images can be downloaded. Some folks have downloaded images from galleries and then have been hounded by Getty Images and others for payment. You have some amazing images.
This is a very good site i have ever visited,The photos are really nice.carry on you will run a long way to prove yourself great.so carry on.One suggestion-please change your background colour.
If you're consistent in improving it - it could become next big thing like Flickr etc. Try your best to decrease the loading time.
It is not clear who the author of these images are and under what terms these images can be downloaded.
You are right! I will add an "about" link on the top, to make things clear.
About the download... I don't have terms and conditions (yet!) and I don't have a login system (also, yet!)so just download and enjoy It's a logical fact that after you download you cannot say "this is my photo".
Try your best to decrease the loading time. Do you think I should decrease the number of photos that are displayed on one page?
Thank you all guy!
Well, first of all it's a quite interesting developing site with already a large number of pictures. I can add several advices:
I think, that's all. Good luck!
Nice photo, but design site is not good, i don't say bad, but on this site just list photo and view these photos, this website is no different.
The layout and design is kind of messy. Try to have the categories under the logo and the like button somewhere on the corners. I also suggest maybe putting a search engine- you can get this for free from google.
The pictures are high quality and nice, keep it up- good luck!
header inconsistent with the content.
I like your winter photos and beautiful girls category.
Can you center the images so that they don't sit to the left and have all the white space to the right? (Just in the gallery view). Also, bigger tags would be helpful! Good looking though.
I must admit - I quite like the website. I usually enjoy browsing easily through nice photos and this the second website I've encountered that does that. Great job! Keep up the good work.
Hi there!
Sorry there. But the design is not good. For photo websites the design is very important to present the photos in an effective manner. It's just a simple design. Website should have a highly look like your home page (main domain).
I did change the background but I don't use social media so much and, give me some hints (good social websites to share). I will add Twitter but, it's all I got for now
I will do that. It's a great idea!
Yes, that's what I wanted, just click pictures and enjoy but looks like a better design is much important than I thought.
I will think (inspire) at some new design. I like the header so, I'll change the content part. Looks like it's a bit obvious that I'm a programmer... less design skills
That's better approach dude!!!
I will bookmark your site !What the script you're using ?
Thanks!It's my own custom script.
I really like the website too.Nice blue hour night shots
Nice site with some great photos!
I wonder if the category selection needs to stand out more as it seems a little lost against the grey background?
Personaly I think there are to many photos on a page ( especialy at that size ) and I would leave space between each one with probably a thin 1px black border to make them stand out more.
This is my latest gallery and I know it is mine but I prefer the layout There may be problems trying to display as many photos as you have though this way.
You already have the photos in catagories and could display them in the catagories or reduce the thumbnail size a bit and add some more space between them.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
[OS] CHINA/US/ECON/GV - RMB exchange rate adjustment no solution to U.S. trade deficit: minister

HONOLULU, United States, Nov. 12 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Commerce Minister
Chen Deming said the Chinese currency's exchange rate is at a basically
reasonable level and adjusting the rate can't solve the U.S. trade deficit
with China.
Chen made the remarks Friday while meeting separately with U.S. Commerce
Secretary John Bryson and Congressman Jim McDermott, a Democrat from
Washington state, according to a news release made available Saturday.
At the meetings held on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic
Cooperation (APEC) Leaders Week, Chen explained the relationship between
China's RMB exchange rate and its trade.
He said China's import rate has been expanding far faster than its export
rate in recent years, with its foreign trade surplus falling year by year
and month by month, to merely 1.4 percent of the country's GDP.
Since the establishment of the APEC forum, Chen said, the two sides have
been comparing notes and have arrived at the conclusion that the actual
U.S. trade deficit with China was much lower than was previously announced
by the United States, due to major differences in the tally of trade
statistics between the two countries.
Chen said China's surplus came almost exclusively from trading with the
United States, and its trade with other countries and regions was
generally balanced.
Of the trade surplus China tallied with the United States, nearly 80
percent came from processing trade and 60 percent from U.S.-owned
enterprises. And for processing trade, the added value achieved in China
only accounted for 15-20 percent of the goods' overall value, he added.

The Iowa DNR invites the public to provide informal input on an upcoming rulemaking. Purpose of the Rule Changes The purpose of the proposed rule changes is to ensure that the air quality in Iowa is maintained by making necessary revisions and additions to state air quality rules to implement new or revised national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for these air pollutants:
In consultation with stakeholders, the DNR is seeking to make the changes necessary to maintain air quality and protect the public health, while minimizing the regulatory impact to the extent possible. Once adopted, the final rules will be submitted to EPA to become part of Iowa's State Implementation Plan (SIP) to maintain air quality in the state. Summary of Rule Changes The DNR is proposing to revise requirements for exemptions from the requirements to obtain an air construction permit and Title V insignificant activities, both contained in Chapter 22, to set emission thresholds and operating conditions for PM2.5, lead, NO2 and SO2 to sufficiently project public health. Additionally, the DNR is proposing to revise the rules in Chapter 22 for the spray booth permit by rule (PBR) to add content limits for lead-containing spray materials. The DNR is also proposing to revise Chapter 28 to adopt by reference the new SO2 NAAQS and to remove the use of PM10 (particulate matter with a diameter of 10 microns or less) as a surrogate for the annual PM2.5 NAAQS. The new lead and NO2 NAAQS were adopted in previous rulemakings.
Upcoming Changes to Air Permitting To fulfill the state's obligations under the Clean Air Act related to updating State Implementation Plans (SIP) for new and revised NAAQS, the DNR will, on January 2, 2013, begin including PM2.5 in the review and issuance of construction permit applications for minor projects (projects not subject to Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) review). The DNR will also begin reviewing minor construction permit projects for the new NO2 and SO2 NAAQS on January 2, 2013. The DNR began permitting minor projects for lead on October 31, 2011, the same date the DNR submitted its lead infrastructure SIP to EPA. As required under the federal Clean Air Act, the DNR already includes the new and revised NAAQS in the DNR's review of PSD projects. PSD review applies to new major sources or significant modifications at major sources of air pollutants. Information available for review Information on the upcoming rulemaking is available on the DNR's website at Air Quality Public Input (scroll down to the Administrative Rules section). Or, click here: http://www.iowadnr.gov/InsideDNR/RegulatoryAir/StakeholderInvolvement/PublicInput.aspx (scroll down to Administrative Rules). How to Provide Input Informal comments or suggestions may be provided to Christine Paulson, Iowa DNR Air Quality Bureau, until Tuesday, September 4, 2012, as follows: E-mail: email@example.com Fax: (515) 242-5094 Mail or Hand-delivery: DNR Air Quality Bureau, 7900 Hickman Road, Suite 1, Windsor Heights, Iowa, 50324 For questions, please contact Christine Paulson at the e-mail address noted above or by phone at (515) 242-5154. This list serve article is intended for consultants, industries, environmental groups, general public, and other entities regulated under the Clean Air Act. It was written by the DNR Air Quality Bureau to share regulatory news, program updates and technical guidance.

Applied Channel Theory in Chinese Medicine (9780939616626)
Publisher: Eastland Press
Binding: Hardcover
Applied Channel Theory in Chinese Medicine demonstrates how a deeper understanding of the interrelationship between organ and channel theory can lead to more precise diagnoses and better clinical results. The book is a collaboration between Wang Ju Yi, one of modern China's most respected scholars, teachers, and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, and his American apprentice and practitioner, Jason Robertson.
While most textbooks focus either on the functions of the organs in basic physiology or on the uses of the channels in treatment, this book shows the essential relationships between the two. Theory and practice are connected through a detailed discussion of a channel palpation methodology developed by Dr Wang, which leads to more precise and effective point selection, location, and technique.
Applied Channel Theory in Chinese Medicine was developed during Mr Robertson's apprenticeship with Dr Wang in Beijing, and is presented in a unique and highly readable format that preserves the intimacy of dialogue between apprentice and teacher, with questions and answers, narratives and case studies.

Applied Channel Theory in Chinese Medicine
This is one of the most valuable texts I have read in the subject of acupuncture for many years. It brings a wealth of clinical and intelligent thought to the art and science of acupuncture. It is beautifully written and bound and offers the discerning practitioner a wealth of clinical knowledge to guide their practice.

Safavieh Soho SOH435A Black Rug
Item #: 101SOH435A-P Add to Wishlist
Description: The Soho Collection is Safavieh's response to market demand for clean, transitional design in rugs that work equally well in traditional and contemporary homes. The collection's unique purity and clarity of the color is achieved by selecting only the purest premium New Zealand wool as a canvas for Safavieh's exciting new color palette. Many of the designs in the Soho collection are accented with viscose for silky softness to outline patterns, and further highlight the softness of the wool. This innovative collection is hand-tufted in India.
- Collection: Soho
- Brand: Safavieh
- Material: 100% Wool
- Weave: Hand Tufted
- Styles: Animal Print Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 2' x 3', 3' 6" x 5' 6", 2' 6" x 8', 2' 6" x 10', 2' 6" x 12', 2' 6" x 14', 5' x 8', 6' x 9', 7' 6" x 9' 6", 8' 3" x 11', 9' 6" x 13' 6", 6' Round, 8' Round, 6' Square and 8' Square
- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
This it's my 4th Rug USA purchase. Love this carpet! Looks MUCH better in person background color much lighter than in photo.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The quality of this rug is impressive. Actual color of rug is more white and black than picture shows. Would highly recommend this rug to anyone looking for a Zebra rug.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The rug is beautiful and great quality. Beware though, the color on the screen is completely different from the actual one. I checked the color in my computer, phone and I pad and it does not reflect the actual color. The rug color is a cold off white and black NOT amber as shown. However, it worked perfect for me since my floor color is taupe. On the other hand, I could see how it would absolutely not work if you base your choice on the amber color shown. For that reason, I couldn't give it a 5. In my case, for the price, quality, design and size I absolutely love it!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Safavieh's award-winning original collections range from the finest antique reproductions to the most fashion forward, contemporary rugs. Safavieh offers a wide variety of transitional area and accent rugs of both Oriental and contemporary designs. Safavieh also produces a variety of rug designs from American Country styles and 19th and early 20th Century European Art.

The Pan African Clinical Trials Registry (PACTR) is a regional register of clinical trials conducted in Africa. The registry is an African initiative serving the needs of Africans. It provides an open-access platform where clinical trials can be registered free of charge. The PACTR aims to increase clinical trial registration in Africa by developing awareness of the need to register trials and supporting trialists during registration.
Global Health Network Competition 22 May was International Clinical Trials day. To make it truly international a competition has been launched on The Global Health Network. Trial staff around the world are asked to make a short video clip about a day in the life of their trial. The prize is a fully supported opportunity to come to the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene Meeting. For more information go to https://globalhealthtrials.tghn.org/community/blogs/post/383/2014/05/global-health-trials-international-clinical-tr/
In addition, PACTR provides a searchable, electronic database of planned trials and trials currently in progress. Those wishing to search the database of trials, can do so from the homepage, by clicking on the "search" link. There is no need to register on the site if you simply want to search the database.
The PACTR is unique in recognising that African trialists face additional challenges in trial registration and seeks to provide feasible ways of overcoming these. For example, a common problem for individuals living in sub-Saharan Africa is limited, unreliable and costly internet access. With this in mind, the registry provides alternative means of trial registration for registrants who do not have reliable access to the internet. Trials may be registered manually by email, postal mail or facsimile correspondence and trial registration is free.
Partners Start-up funding for PACTR was provided through a grant from the European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP) and is based at The South African Cochrane Centre (SACC), which is located at the South African Medical Research Council (MRC). The registry is working in collaboration with The Cochrane Infectious Diseases Group (CIDG), (based at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine), the Cochrane HIV/AIDS Group (based at the University of San Francisco and the SACC), and the World Health Organization (WHO).
Please note: The ATM Clinical Trials Registry has been expanded to include all health conditions and renamed the Pan African Clinical Trials Registry (PACTR).

The yard sale is to benefit Pam Simons in her fight against scleroderma, a progressive disease which hardens cells of the body. Worsening symptoms, six blood transfusions in the last few months, and trips back and forth to Duke University to treat gastrointestinal bleeding have forced Simons to give up her lifetime of work for area senior citizens at Bradley Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center.
After dedicating 30-plus years to attending to others, the nurse is now engaged in a fight of her own that began three years ago. She is currently waiting for the opportunity to undergo experimental stem-cell replacement therapy at Duke University.
While Simons curtails activities outside her home, Restoration Fellowship Church, under the direction of Dr. John Looper, is busy raising funds to help with the mounting medical bills.
In November, a Youth Talent Showcase kicked off a series of three fundraisers. A Southern gospel celebration and chili cook off followed it in February to help fill the financial gap. This is the last fundraiser of the three.
Please call Liz Absher at 423-284-5886 for information, to arrange a pickup of donations or to drop off donations. Donations are still being received.

For my crunchy fix, Glenny's Soy Crisps for a crunchy fix. However, I had the opportunity to try Stacy's Cinnamon Sugar PIta Chips the other day, and I decided to review them and see what everyone else thinks about this treat. I picked up a 1.5-ounce bag for $1.25 and looked forward to trying it.
Stacy's Pita Chips are made from "all natural pita" and then twice baked. I'm used to having soy crisps that have a light, airy texture, so the pita chips were pretty different - harder. When I opened the bag, I got a strong, delicious whiff of cinnamon, but as I bit into one, I could tell that this wasn't exactly what I was going for, texture-wise. However, the cinnamon and sugar flavors were perfect.
Each 1.5-ounce package of Stacy's Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips provides 200 calories, 11% of the daily value for total fat but only 3% of the DV for saturated fat, 180 mg sodium (7% of the DV), 8% of the DV for fiber, 9 grams of sugar and 4 grams of protein.
I know people who are Stacy's Pita Chips enthusiasts, but honestly, I don't really get it. The taste is just okay, nutrition facts aren't that great - natural doesn't mean low fat - and the ingredients list , while not bad, starts off with enriched wheat flour, organic sugar and sunflower oil.
Overall, I liked the flavor of Stacy's Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips but would have been happier with a lighter chip. These probably won't replace Glenny's in my heart (and stomach) for my go to chips. Still, if I'm feeling for a slightly sweet and cinnamony chip, Glenny's MultiGrain Cinnamon and Sugar Pastry Crisps doesn't have a high rating either, so I would probably stick with Food Should Taste Good Cinnamon Tortilla Chips.
