The next generation of BMW's iDrive infotainment control system may very well use a touchscreen, and let drivers accept phone calls and adjust volume with gestures.
At CES, BMW demonstrated its gesture control feature for its in-car infotainment system. In the future, drivers will be able to change the radio volume, start navigation or answer a call with the wave of a hand or by pointing a finger.
The Grammy-nominated DJ has partnered with Thalmic Labs to use the Myo gesture-control armband during live performances.
A team of deaf entrepreneurs is developing software to bridge the communication gap between hearing and hearing-impaired people.
The upcoming OS will add new trackpad swiping features, including a three-finger swipe that can minimize or maximize all open windows.
Capacitive touch devices keep getting better and better, but the next step of natural interaction is to get rid of touch altogether.
In Tokyo at CEATEC 2014, 16Lab is demonstrating a Bluetooth-enabled ring that could make easy gestures a reality.
The Wave gesture-recognition feature remains disabled, but the Nest Protect 2.0 software will help mitigate certain false alarms, and introduces some useful new features in the app.
Thalmic Labs has partnered with Google Glass, Recon Jet, Epson Moverio, and software companies to bring gesture control to smart glasses via the Myo arm band.
Tilt and swivel your way around the Amazon Fire Phone with a few handy gestures.

Cobblers look to banish bad memories
Northampton's last visit to Home Park to face Plymouth Argyle ended in a heavy defeat
The struggling Pilgrims received a welcome boost last November when caretaker Cobblers boss Tim Flowers brought a shell-shocked side down to Devon for a League Two fixture.
Gary Johnson's sacking had been followed by a 7-2 home defeat at the hands of Shrewsbury as Town's season looked in danger of falling apart and Flowers pulled no punches afterwards, warning: "Whoever comes in (as manager), the mission is the keep the club in the league. The Blue Square Bet Premier is littered with clubs like us who've gone and haven't come back."
That man of course was Aidy Boothroyd and with the Cobblers enjoying an unbeaten start to the league season supporters will be confident that Saturday's game will produce a different outcome.
"We had a lot of new faces that day and it kind of kick-started the season for us," said Argyle boss Carl Fletcher.

We are going down in septemeber. I have heard that it is not as crowded during this time. Anyone been during this time?
Crowds in September are lower than say June/July/August but still fairly high comparatively. It's not a "dead" time but it's certainly not peak crowds since most schools in the US have gone back into session.
It is however HOT that time of year. Lots of folks think the heat has dissipated by then but it's really not until late November that it starts to cool off in Central Florida so be sure to plan for summer weather and not be fooled into think it's "fall". LOL!
Thanks for the info.
Can we use an unused base ticket for entry into the water parks?
Unfortunately you can not use a base ticket to get into the Water Parks. Your tickets have to have the Water Park Fun and More option on them in order to use them at the Water Parks. Otherwise you can just purchase a ticket at the gate of the Water Park.
One additional tip for that time period. Because of the Free dining you will want to make your dining reservations ASAP. The dining gets completely booked up.
i went sept 12 to sept 21 07 and had the dinning plan and it wasnt crowded at all, longest wait was at potc and was probabally 15 min at most
Wow - thats good to hear! We are going the 1st week of Sept for the Night of Joy, and I assumed during free dining it would be packed!!!
You're confusing Cause and Effect. :-)
Disney offers Free Dining during times when they know the crowds are going to be very light. So when you see a Free Dining promotion, that's your cue that Disney believes there will NOT be heavy crowds.
... Restaurants, however, will be insanely crowded.
We always go in late August through September and the parks are much quieter so it's easier to get on all the rides and the days are nowhere near as tiring. Also, it's fun to do Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and I think they start September 5th this year.

Several have expressed that it might be so, being a Descent-like game only in the universe or the Cthulhu mythos.
Do you think FFG have intention of doing the same with MoM as Descent? Creating tons of high-quality expansions to make it a a huge game. I do hope so.
For reason is, any good Call of Cthulhu rpg adventure could in essential be played as an boardgame with roleplaying aspects. You investigate, try to solve a puzzle, you die alot or get insane, and in away the character progress or involment aren't as important as in other games like World of Darkness, and storytelling games, that heavily emphasise on character motivation.
What I mean is this perhaps the best way to experience the mythos is by playing MoM rather than CoC? I know this can be provokative, but just think, maybe Chaosium should be real worried?
looking forward to any comments

I had a fairly high regard for the CTS sedan already, but I share Joe's opinion that the new CTS Sport Wagon has a synergistic effect on the CTS lineup. Simply put, this wagon is incredibly cool, and Ed Welburn's design team did a great job shaping the angular CTS into a wagon.
But the wagon is good for more than just attracting admiring glances--the cargo area is quite useful and versatile. I particularly like the accordion folding floor section that works well as a light-duty divider: I was easily able to separate my daughter's birthday cupcakes from my bulky white-elephant gift for the office holiday party. The tie-down points in the cargo area feel very substantial, too, but I didn't need them.
That feeling of quality extends all the way to the front of the Caddy wagon's cabin, which a huge sunroof helps brighten. Unlike Eric, I wasn't bothered by the navigation system, and I was happy to recall how much I like its vertically rising touch screen.
Also unlike Eric, I thought that the automatic transmission shifted pretty nicely, but I was chauffeuring around my one-year-old daughter most of the time, not trying to break any lap records. But the gearbox's shift paddles are too close to the steering-column stalks. That does little to undermine the CTS Sport Wagon's enjoyable overall driving experience, however.

RE: Should I do sconces on the mirror? - please check out pic! (Follow-Up #68)
posted by: wa8b on 05.08.2009 at 01:32 pm in Bathrooms Forum If you mount light fixtures on the mirror, be sure they have a large enough back plate so that you don't see the junction box or the edge of the hole in the mirror when looking at the fixture from and angle or from the side. You'll also want to look for a fixture with a smooth or clean finish on the back of backplate, as the mirror will reflect a view of the back of backplate near its edges, especially if the glass is fairly thick. Also, be sure the backplate doesn't leak any light, or you'll be illuminating the junction box.

RE: Opinions on schlage vs. emtek vs. kwikset doorknobs (Follow-Up #2)
posted by: macv on 11.14.2009 at 02:01 pm in Building a Home Forum These brands are difficult to compare just as brands. If you want to use lever handles on cylindrical mechanisms you must pay attention to the quality of the model you are considering in order to avoid a sagging handle. Typical cylindrical set springs are not as reliable as the ones in mortise sets.
Black & Decker owns Kwikset, Baldwin and Price Pfister. These companies cover a wide range of mass marketed commercial and residential hardware of different qualities but I confess I don't understand their product lines except that Baldwin dropped a notch now that it is mass marketed through lumberyards but it still makes some great solid brass hardware. I have not been impressed with the Kwikset hardware I've seen in retail stores. Assa Alba, a Swedish company, bought Emtek, a 3 decade old California specialty hardware company that used to make hardware for residential door companies and now makes mass marketed "decorative" residential hardware. The quality seems good and the styles are more dramatic. The fact that they don't offer more than one level of spring strength for lever handle cylindrical hardware concerns me. Schlage is a huge hardware company owned by Ingersoll Rand which makes many different levels of security devices for every possible use. Summary of Schlage door hardware: F Series - basic light duty residential "builder grade" door hardware - not UL listed - found in almost every home center - residential quality door hardware in many styles and finishes. Most of the finishes have a lifetime warrantee now, and all of the mechanics are lifetime warranteed. The new "Accents" collection features some new front entry handleset, knob and lever styles with the added benefit of having concealed screws. The "Accents" style deadbolt is a low profile style, meaning it does not project far off the door giving it a cleaner, neater look. Lever handles may sag aver time. A Series - The next step up the ladder. Similar in looks to the "F" series except with concealed mounting screws - incorporates a heavier duty commercial type "cylindrical" mechanism to better prevent lever sag. Knob and lever styles are limited in this series, and there are not as many finishes to select from. Beyond the "F" and the "A" series are door locks that straddle the line between residential and commercial. S Series – UL listed, built to last a lifetime under medium to heavy duty office use - where heavy duty levers may not be required - for both light/medium commercial and multi-housing applications. Heat-treated steel locking components for extra strength. Two independent heavy duty torsion springs to prevent lever sagging. AL Series - top quality door hardware built to last a lifetime under medium to heavy duty office use - utilizes the original A-Series cylindrical chassis with stylish lever designs supported by heavy duty spring cages D Series (L Series for mortise) - heavy duty commercial hardware that can be used in residential applications as well.

RE: Now, you're done-what do you wish you had known while plannin (Follow-Up #58)
posted by: shelayne on 05.18.2010 at 02:53 pm in Kitchens Forum Carol,
An airswitch is a mechanism that uses air to power your garbage disposer switch, by the press of a button. It's plugged into your GD under the sink and tubing is connected to the actual button assembly, so you do not have to worry about wet hands and wall switches, as it uses air through the tube to power the switch. It is great for islands, and uncluttered backsplashes. Though most often seen on top of counters, people have installed them under the counter, in between cabinets, etc. Here is a photo of mine, so you get an idea what they look like: It's that round button left of the faucet. Hope that helped at least a little bit. :^) NOTES: <none>

About McSpeed6's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
I've always been mechanically inclined, like my Dad. Dad taught me how to fix cars when i was young, and always enjoyed that time we spent together. I guess that's where my passion for cars came from. The automobile is an amazing machine. When engineered correctly, it can become much more than just a mode of transportation. It can be an artistic expression, as well as an adrenaline pumping white knuckle ride.
Not convinced...next time you're on the highway for an hour,
think about the apprx. 600,000 controlled explosions that propelled you for that hour...pretty cool, huh?

I am looking for a simple, asian peanut sauce with not too much added oil and not too sweet. I did a google search and was overwhelmed and, of course, would much rather have a few tried and true ones.
Thanks! Sunny |

Heya Sunny: I make this all the time. I mix it up in a glass measuring cup and throw it in the microwave to heat. Simple. I use about a 1/4 cup of the Arrowhead or Tree of Life chunky PB, and about a tablespoon of tamari sauce, a few dashes of sesame oil, a "schmere" of this thai roasted red pepper paste (it's so yum), and about a 1/4 cup of water. Heat and mix. Sometimes I add a bit of asian vinegar, and a pinch of sugar. A squeeze of lime juice is really nice too. GGG |
Thanks! I will try it this week. sunny |

I have been looking for this recipe for awhile, thanks! I will try it soon |
Peanut sauce is what's used in Pad Thai. There are actually a lot of very good bottled ones in Asian markets and in many supermarkets. I use a variety of them and have found them all to be quite good. |
Someone sent me a couple of them but I think I am going to try making my own becuase they both had some ingredieints I would rather not eat. I will check the next time I am at the asian grocery though. There might be more "wholesome" varieties. thanks, Sunny |

Robert Downey Jr. Archives - Robot 6 @ Comic Book Resources
'Avengers' actors unite to bring 'Winter Soldier' to cancer patient
Sophie Caldecott is a hero and what she accomplished this past week is more inspiring than saving the world or defeating Ultron. I love a feel good story as much as the next person, and this one is a doozy.
In October 2011, her father Stratford Caldecott was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. He and his family have persevered through every treatment and now, three years later, the cancer has advanced to the final stages of the disease. Her father is a huge comic fan and often joked that he'd hang on just to see the next Marvel movie release; sadly, he wasn't well enough to make it to the theaters to catch Captain America: The Winter Soldier. So starting last Monday, Sophie launched a simple campaign to get a copy of the movie to her father in his convalescence at home and to bring him some cheer in a difficult time.
How to create new comic fans: cast 'em in a comic book movie
Here's a (slightly expensive )way to create new comic fans … cast'em in a comic book movie, which will send them to the comic shop to do "research." X17 Online has video of Iron Man 2's Robert Downey Jr. at Meltdown Comics in L.A., buying various Avengers comics and talking to fans:

Inov8 Bare-Grip 200 – First Look
Now available at Running Warehouse
Inov8 was making minimalist trail shoes before it was hip to be minimal. A UK company, Inov8 (pronounced: innovate) was founded on the principle of providing trail shoes that would be engineered to work in extreme conditions. Unhappy with the unstable, high-off-the-ground trail shoes that were available in the market, Inov8 set out to provide trail shoes that were close to the ground and thus inherently stable. Furthermore, trail shoes needed to be able to provide excellent traction and shed mud. Think about the damp landscape of Great Britain seen in the movie Braveheart, and you get a good idea of the conditions that Inov8 sought to conquer with its first trail shoe.
The first shoe produced by Inov8, was the Mudroc 290. This award wining shoe is known as the original Fell Racer. Fell racing involves racing from here to there, without a course, and undoubtedly over some hills (fell is a word used to describe a hilly landscape in parts of England). As such, Inov8 trail shoes were originally designed to provide supreme traction on steep climbs and descents, while also being able to shed mud. Inov8 now has a full spectrum of trail shoes designed to tackle a variety of terrain, ranging from hard packed ground, to loose covered trail and soft, mushy fields.

Jean Pudlo
GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Faced in recent years with an annual deficit that grew to $185,000 in the fiscal year that ended last June 30, YWCA of Greensboro is regrouping.
The Y has ousted its executive director, named an interim director, hired an accountant to bring its books up to date, and decided to drop its aquatics and fitness programs and tighten its focus, says Jean Pudlo, a nonprofit consultant who in December was named interim executive director.
The Y now will focus mainly on two existing programs, including one that mentors teen mothers and supports their kids, and another that provides after-school activities for elementary and middle-school students.
"Those two programs are going to be the key focus as we rebuild our organization and move forward," Pudlo says.
Founded in 1903, the Y in recent years has branded its programs around the mission of "eliminating racism, empowering women."
At the same time, however, the Y failed to adapt itself to changes in the marketplace, says Pudlo.
Those changes included growing competition from organizations offering fitness programs, rising competition for charitable support, shifting priorities by funders, and greater attention by key funder United Way of Greater Greensboro to outcomes rather than operations.
"We didn't see the sum of a lot of gradual changes," Pudlo says.
With an annual budget totaling $1.2 million this fiscal year, the Y has aimed to keep itself afloat by turning to its reserves and its endowment, and slowing payment of bills, she says.
The Y has nearly depleted its reserves and has borrowed $75,000 from its endowment, which fell in value to $160,500 at the end of 2008 in the face of the deteriorating economy and capital markets from a high of $348,000 in June 2007.
With the ouster of Adrienne Witherspoon as executive director in October after 11 months on the job, Y board members and the board treasurer worked to sort out the organization's books for the fiscal year that had ended June 30, 2008.
So when Pudlo joined the Y in early December, she says, she found "a lot of organizational systems that weren't working smoothly."
The Y's accounting systems, for example, still were months in arrears because information about the organization's finances for the current fiscal year simply had not been booked.
The Y in November had hired an accountant who continues to work part-time.
"It was January before we could look at incomes and expenses of a particular program to analyze what was going on," Pudlo says.
Once numbers were available, the Y conducted a financial and market analysis of its operations and programs, and assessed its organizational strengths and weaknesses.
On Feb. 27, the Y board decided to suspend its aquatics programs and fitness classes, effective March 21, when the current season for those activities ends.
That will result in the reduction of a full-time aquatics coordinator and 10 part-time staffers.
It is the difference they are making in the community that prompted the Y to decide to focus its continuing attention mainly on the mentoring program for teen mothers and the after-school program for elementary-school and middle-school students, Pudlo says.
Ninety-seven percent of the 330 teen mothers in the mentoring program, for example, stay in school, compared to 30 percent of teen mothers nationally who stay in school.
And because of the childbirth classes and health education it offers, 97 percent of mothers in the program gave birth to babies with normal birth weight, an indicator that future development and health will be normal, compared to 87 percent of minority women ages 15 to 19 throughout North Carolina whose babies' birth weight is normal.
"The work we do saves lives," Pudlo says.
And the after-school program, which serves 225 kids, reaches "a lot of children who otherwise would have nowhere to go after school or would be home alone," she says.
"Having that quality care," she says, "means those parents can work to support their family or be in school or be looking for a job."
Chaired by Judi Rossabi, owner of Yoga Café, the Y board will devote the next two months to develop a vision and goals for the Y and to overseeing the rebuilding of the organization, including internal systems, marketing and fundraising, Pudlo says.
Eventually, she says, the Y aims to "build on what we do well to either serve more moms and after-school children, to serve them better, or to serve additional populations."
The Y also is planning its third annual Girls and Women in Sports Dinner, which will be held April 25 at the Alumni Event Center at N.C. A&T State University and feature Caroline Lind, an Olympic gold medalist for rowing, as guest speaker.
And the Y has been awarded a $25,000 grant by the Tannenbaum-Sternberger Foundation.
"The organization is trying to focus in on what we do best for this community and building from there," Pudlo says. "We're not out of the woods yet. It's going to take some work to continue to stabilize the organization so we continue to grow those programs, but we're on our way."

RE: To paint or not to paint this beamed ceiling? (Follow-Up #50)
posted by: palimpsest on 10.10.2013 at 03:17 pm in Home Decorating & Design Forum If I had a negative emotional response about something that was "essential" to the house, some key feature that would be difficult to change without significant expense, or if it was something that really couldn't be changed successfully, I would probably not buy the house, in all honesty.
I would not reject a house out of hand for having bad wallpaper or paint colors I didn't like, or even granite countertops I didn't like. But, if I didn't like the wood beamed ceilings in a house, I would probably pass on the house. Or there would have to be something so particularly perfect about it in some other way , that I could live with them (probably as is or with minor changes) .. But I don't know that there is such a shortage of houses that I would be forced into buying something I really didn't want. A modernist house is usually particularly "pushy" about what it is, and I think that is one of the reasons a lot of people don't like them. Most people are pretty vocal about hating them. (And don't seem to think this is at all insulting to the people that own them.) They are inflexible. They don't adapt as well to change as a non-commital generic-transitional kind of house. Those are actually pretty easy to remodel and redecorate and to change. No amount of crown moulding or chair rail or windows with muntins would turn the house in question into anything traditional-looking and believe me, people try to do this often. And that's where the euphemistic "do what you love" often comes into play. Because it often means "disregard the hand you were dealt". Most of "do what you love" is an outgrowth of not liking the house they are giving advice about. I know we are not talking about crown moulding and chair rail specifically here, but we are still talking about changing a Major element here in a way that will be pretty much irreversible here and Much harder to undo than restoring them would be from this starting point. It's a significant dilution of what the essence of this house is. It may absolutely be necessary. But it should be given more than a cursory "go ahead, it's yours". My delivery is pretty abrupt and to the point, but the people who get on my case about how insulting I am kind of miss the whole aspect that I don't really give advice based upon what I like or don't like as much as I give advice based upon what the existing conditions are telling me what is probably the best thing to do. I guide people through a series of choices I would never pick for myself all the time. That's really irrelevant. What is relevant is what there is already there to work with. NOTES: <none>

RE: How to decorate in a *timeless* style (Follow-Up #16)
posted by: magnaverde on 04.28.2009 at 02:47 pm in Home Decorating Forum Beware of anything marketed as "Timeless"
Here's the thing: the very concept of timelessness is every bit as subject to the whims of fashion-and marketing--as your average teenaged girl's closet. Today, we bestow the word 'timeless' on 1910-era kitchens with white brick-laid subway tiles, oak caabinets & floors & bronze-&-opal glass lights, but that's notr rally correct, because in the 193Os, a room like that, far from being thought timeless, would have been considered a dated horror and the owners of such a hellhole would have lost no time replacing the dingy oak cabinets with enameled steel cabinets with linoleum tops, tearing out the wall's boring tiles & painting the replastered walls Jadeite green, covering the oak floor with jazzy patterned linoleum and trading the old light fixtures with the latest exposed-fluorescent tubes. Timeless is relative, see. Today, a lot of people would consider that that 'updated' kitchen's new decor--minus the fluorescent fixtures anyway--as charming in itself . Even timeless. But by the 7Os, the same 3Os kitchen would have seem hopelessly dated, so they'd no doubt have improved the room by scrapping the out-of-style metal cabinets & replacing them with timeless beauty of recessed-panel wooden cabinets in a classic honey-color maple, and instead of out-of-date Venetian bilnds at the windows, they'd hang traditional tieback curtains of calico patchwork. Such a classic look. A traditional, timeless American look, sort of like Little House on the Priarie. Until, that is, all those busy patterns & dark woods started looking r-e-a-l-l-y gloomy. I mean, really, who wants to live is an unheated cabin with no lights? So an up-to date owner would probably want to upgrade the joint and replace all that dated 7Os decor with something more classic. More timeless, you know? Darks woods were, of course, out of the questiom, and white seemed so boring & stark & cold--like those metal kitchens in the 193Os--but everyone likes a soft, timeless shade of, say, almond, right? Not too dark, not too light, just simple, classic & timeless. yeah, well good luck on that. Anyway, if any of the trendy stuff that's being marketed as "timeless" at the moment were really all that timeless, they wouldn't need to market it at all, because people would have always loved it and would already be buying it. In fact, they would have never stopped buying it. But that's seldom the case with whatever style or color or motif the magazines & the shows & the advertisers are hyping as timeless at the moment. In the 5Os, French provincial was timeless. In the 8Os, country decor was timeless. This year, it's Belgian decor. And yet, if the calm, neutral tones & strength of character & honesty of Belgian decor were really timeless, shouldn't we have been wanting it--and buying its component pieces--all along, instead of ignoring it till half an hour ago? How can a style it be timeless if most people never even heard of it till day-before yesterday? And, conversely, if the warm woods & rich, autumnal colors of "Tuscan" decor is really as timelessly beautiful as advertisers told us it was ten years ago, how is it that a lot of them have already stopped selling the stuff? A thing of beauty is supposed to be a joy forever, isn't it? No, it really isn't. In fact, most of the time, it's only a thing of beauty as long as marketers tell us it is, after which it quickly becomes tacky & dated, and if we're not careful, we'll soon find ourselves living in the decor equivalent of Cinderella's coach after it turned back into a pumpkin. Yuck. Who wants that? In a few years, the only place you'll be able to find wine posters or plastic-grape-bedangled rusty iron scrollwork doodads (or the plastic or version thereof) is at yardsales. By then, even T.J. Maxx will have dropped the stuff. I remember when the rough finishes & subtle pastels of "Southwest" decor--the dream catchers made in Indonesia, the alleged Navajo rugs made in who-knows-where, the big rustic pots & baskets--were marketed as classic examples of Timeless American Style. When's the last time you saw a howling coyote wooden candlestick? Where's the timelessness? No, there's only one way to get a decor that doesn't start ticking away toward the end of its shelf life the moment you get it home: don't watch TV decorating shows, don't buy glossy decorating magazines, don't ever look at those mail-order catalogs and never, ever, buy anything new. Of course, that's easier said than done, and if we all did it, it would, as Patricia43 suggests above, send our consumer economy into even more of a tailspsin than we're already in. But that's a different problem. At any rate, how would I suggest that people create a "timeless" decor? By doing excatly what I've always done: buying whatever I want and not worrying in the least whether or not anybody else likes the way it looks. That, of course, implies not asking people--even knowledgable people on public message boards--how they think something looks. But it will pretty much guarantee that your house won't end up looking just like your neighbor's house. Put it this way: I bet that Axel Vervoordt----the newest poster boy for the "timeless look" du jour--ever asked anybody else for their opinion of his work. Regards, Magnaverde. NOTES: <none>

Easy Photo Posting Instructions
posted by: solstice98 on 05.21.2006 at 09:25 am in Florida Gardening Forum I know we've posted these instructions before but I've seen the question come up a couple times recently so thought it was time to do it again. There are several ways to get your pictures into your messages, but I think this is the easiest for beginners and with Photobuckets newer services, it offers great stuff for pros too. When my printer was down recently I ordered some prints through them and received my pictures in 2 days. Really nice quality too.
(No, this is NOT an ad for Photobucket. I don't work for them, own stock or have any interest in the company. I use Webshots, too.) ___________________________________ INSTRUCTIONS: The photo posting is much easier than you think, once you've done it. Tony_K taught me a couple years ago and I've tried to pass on the information to others. Here's the basics: I think it's easier to do all this if you have two browser windows open - one on photobucket and one on gardenweb. Go to photobucket(dot)com and open an account. It's free, takes only a minute, and is no harder than signing on to GardenWeb. There are other photo posting services but I think this one is the easiest to use. Once you have the account you'll see how easy it is to upload your photos to photobucket. You can set up sub-albums with one click of the mouse, so you can sort your photos into different subject (more on that below). When they are there, you'll see three little 'addresses' under each picture. Highlight the middle one - the TAG line - and 'copy' it. (You can copy it by right clicking on your mouse and selecting 'copy', or by clicking on EDIT at the very top of your computer screen.) Once it's copied, go to the GardenWeb message you are composing and paste the TAG line directly into the text of your message. Don't put it at the URL line under the text box. At this point you will only see text, but once you choose to view your message you'll see the photo. If it comes out too big, then go back to photobucket and choose the EDIT button over that photo. You'll have the option there to reduce the photo by 75, 50, or 25 percent. 75% makes it a good size for these messages, but 50% works too. Try both on different photos and see what you like. Technically I think you can post as many photos as you want in each message but remember that not everyone has a high speed line and try to keep it to 5 or less. More than that makes it pretty slow to load for some. Here's the sub-album tip about photobucket or any other service you use: set up sub-albums for different subjects so you don't end up with 200 photos in one album. For example, I have Garden 2005, Garden 2006, House Shots, Yard Sale (where I post photos for things I am selling through the newspaper or eBay), All the Muffins (pet pictures), etc. Besides making it hard to find something if you have it all in one album, if you ever decide to move photos later, any link you've posted on the web will be lost. If you still have problems, send me an email with your email or phone number and I'll talk you through it. I think photos make every post more fun and I encourage everyone to do it. The digital camera I use is a 10 year old 2.1 Nikon, so you don't need a fancy or expensive camera to share images of your garden. We all want to see! A special thanks, once again, to Tony_K for helping me get my first picture posted a few years ago! Hope this helps,

[602] Discordance between Molecular and Immunohistochemical Analyses for Lynch Syndrome Assessment.
Angela N Bartley, Rajyalakshimi Luthra, Devki Saraiya, Russell R Broaddus. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston
Background: Microsatellite instability analysis (MSI) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins are well-accepted clinical approaches to evaluate cancer patients for the possibility of Lynch Syndrome (LS). Some investigators advocate for the use of only one testing method to screen for LS given that the concordance between PCR-based MSI analysis and IHC is typically high. While MSI and IHC discordances have been acknowledged, the prevalence and nature of these cases have not been well-described. We examined the outcomes of a large number of IHC/MSI analyses performed in our laboratory to document discordance and frequency.
Design: The clinical records of 736 cancer patients who underwent MSI and/or IHC testing from 2002 to 2010 were evaluated. Patients with both MSI and IHC analysis (n=628) were subsequently studied in detail. Based on microsatellite marker analysis, 478 were classified as microsatellite stable (MSS), 97 as MSI-high (MSI-H) and 53 as MSI-low. Discordance was defined as a discrepancy between the MSI and IHC results. All IHC and MSI results and pertinent clinical and family history on discordant cases were re-reviewed by two pathologists and one clinical geneticist.
Results: Discordances were identified in 13 of 628 evaluated cases (2.1%). Twelve of 97 MSI-high (MSI-H) cases (12%) were discordant, showing intact IHC expression of the MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 proteins. Nine of these carcinomas were colorectal, 2 endometrial, and 1 small intestinal. 7/12 patients were younger than 50 years at age of diagnosis. 8/12 patients had a first degree relative with an LS-associated cancer. Germline mutational analysis of six patients revealed mutations in four (all colorectal carcinomas; two in MLH1, one in MSH2, one in PMS2). Both patients with MLH1 mutations fulfilled Amsterdam II criteria, but the others did not. One of 478 MSS tumors showed loss of MLH1 and PMS2 on IHC. Methylation of MLH1 was not detected in this tumor. No mutations of MLH1or MSH2 were detected on subsequent sequencing or rearrangement analysis.
Conclusions: IHC/MSI discordance is surprisingly common, occurring in about 12% of MSI-H cancers. IHC testing alone would miss a significant number of informative cases given that MMR gene mutations were detected in 67% of the MSI-H patients with positive IHC staining for all markers. Therefore, the use of IHC by itself may yield misleading results that fail to identify potential LS patients.

Quoting Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter's strong words on the Keith Olbermann show about how "it's important, historically, to look at the context of" the "effort in these OLC memos to try to dress [torture] up as something else," Hullabaloo blogger digby takes issue (4/24/09) with his statement that "Dick Cheney stands almost alone" in still publicly defending the memos:
Yes, Dick Cheney is forlorn and all alone. Many of the people who advocated taking the gloves off are leaving him out there hanging today. And one of them is Jonathan Alter.
See, he forgot to mention–and Keith apparently didn't know–that in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 this torture talk didn't come out of nowhere or even from the dark recesses of Cheney's evil mind. Jonathan Alter himself was one of the people who brought it up almost instantly: "Time to Think About Torture" By Jonathan Alter, Newsweek, November 5, 2001.Clearly, the Pentagon wasn't alone in advocating torture from the moment 9/11 happened. It was being advocated in the pages of major newsmagazines by so-called liberal columnists who are now commenting on what "Cheney did" as if they weren't even in the country at the time.

Video Description
Girls, drinks and a hard night of wild partying goes way out of control in this new trailer for the mockumentary-style party comedy 'Project X' produced by the director of 'The Hangover' and 'Old School'. It does hint to lots of mayhem in the second half and even though watching douchey kids party might not be your thing, the film does look appealing in the trailer. Plot - "Project X" follows three seemingly anonymous high school seniors as they attempt to finally make a name for themselves. Their idea is innocent enough: let's throw a party that no one will forget… but nothing could prepare them for this party. Word spreads quickly as dreams are ruined, records are blemished and legends are born. "Project X" is a warning to parents and police everywhere. This film has been rated R for crude and sexual content throughout, nudity, drugs, drinking, pervasive language, reckless behavior and mayhem-all involving teens.

At the March 26 Board of Supervisors meeting, The Civil War Trust, America's largest Civil War nonprofit preservation organization with over 55,000 members donated to Chesterfield County 11.5 acres of additional land for Howlett Line Park. There will be a formal transfer ceremony to be announced later.
The Civil War Trust and the Military History Committee of the Chesterfield Historical Society of Virginia, has, for over 10 years, been working to preserve the 11.5 acres to add to Howlett Line Park. The funding came from the Civil War Trust, American Battlefield Protection Program and the Virginia Civil War Sites Preservation Fund.
The current park is about two acres and was saved in 1987 with a donation of land from B. Forace Hill of Hill Construction. This site was formerly owned by the Walthall Baptist Church. The property was purchased by then the Civil War Preservation Trust in July, 2010. In 2013 the Trust offered the property to the county. Going through all the processes and conservation easements and deeds the property is ready to be transferred.
The 11.5 acre addition of Howlett Line Park has a well preserved extension of the Confederate Howlett Line running through it and a very rare feature in the form of over 45 winter hut sites. It was on June 2, 1864, the site where the 22nd South Carolina Infantry, commanded By Col. Olin M. Dantzler started their ill-fated attack on Federal Fort Dutton in which Col. Dantzler was killed.
Shortly after the battle, the river battery on the James known as the Howlett House battery, was named after Col. Dantzler, in his honor by General P. G. T. Beauregard. Battery Dantzler is a county Civil War park and is open to the public daily.
Once the deed has been transferred the county Parks & Recreation Department will start to make improvements to the existing park and the new addition. New markers will be installed and a trail will be constructed through the park and improved parking on Howlett Line Drive. This work will start soon.
This is the 150th anniversary of the Bermuda Hundred Campaign that happened in Chesterfield County starting on May 5, 1864. For 15 days the fate of Richmond and Petersburg were in the hands of the Army of the James and General Ben Butler. In those 15 days the Confederate forces under the command of General Beauregard were able to stop Butler's advance at Drewry's Bluff on May 16 and "Bottle" him up on May 20 at the Battle of Ware Bottom Church.

CAIRO - The highest seat of learning in the Sunni Muslim world has denounced the Shiite Hizbullah's support for the regime of Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, warning the sectarian strife in Syria is playing into Israel's hands to tighten grip on Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem).
"Syria is nothing but a theatre of the absurd in this battle which has become a Shiite-Sunni struggle," Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayyeb said in a statement cited by Reuters.
"We would have wished that the Shiites would reject this bait, the senior Sunni scholar said.
But the last few days have led one to believe that they have fallen into the trap of hateful sectarian strife."
Hizbullah, a close ally of Iran and the Syrian regime, is openly engaged in the fight against the anti-regime forces in Syria.
Hizbullah fighters helped Assad's forces retake the strategic town of Qusair near Homs on the Lebanese border last week from opponents drawn mostly from Syria's Sunni majority.
The Lebanese group has already lost dozens of its men in the battle for Qusayr.
Last month, Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah vowed to propel Assad to victory in Syria's civil war.
The Shiite leader also pledged that Hizbullah will turn the tide of the conflict in Assad's favor, and stay as long as necessary to do so.
Earlier this month, prominent Muslim scholar Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi called on Sunni Muslims to join opposition forces in their fight against Assad's regime.
Qaradawi also denounced Hizbullah, which means the party of God in Arabic, as the "party of Satan".
The two-year fighting between Assad's forces and anti-regime fighters have killed more than 80,000 people.
The fighting has forced more than one million Syrians to flee their home to neighboring countries in addition to the displacement of two millions others inside the country.
Israel's Benefit
Al-Azhar imam has warned that the sectarian war in Syria is playing into Israel's hands to tighten grip on Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem).
"Everyone has now become busy, looking away from the Zionist entity, and especially after Hizbullah joined in the fighting alongside the regime against the Syrian people," said Tayyeb.
Hizbullah was admired by many in the Arab world for its struggle to liberate Lebanese lands from Israel.
But the group's involvement in the Syrian conflict has hardened attitudes in the Sunni world against Hizbullah.
The United States on Tuesday imposed sanctions on four Lebanese citizens on accusations of fundraising and recruiting for Hizbullah in West Africa.
The US Treasury Department said the men were acting in Sierra Leone, Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire and the Gambia.
The sanctions mean they are effectively cut off from the U.S. financial system and any dealings with US citizens.
"Liberating Jerusalem does not pass through Qusair or Homs, Tayyeb said.
Al-Azhar can do nothing but condemn this intervention, which contributes to yet more bloodshed and the tearing apart of the national fabric of Syria and the region."
There is no end in sight to the conflict in Syria, which has divided world powers.
Russia and Shiite Iran support Assad, while the United States, along with some European and Sunni Muslim Gulf Arab nations back a fractured opposition.Damascus and some of its opponents have said they will consider peace talks, but no meetings have been arranged.

Should I buy Honda Accord 2003 with 207K miles ?
Hi, Should I buy a Honda Accord 2003 with 207K miles? How much more could it run with out major problem ? How about the maintenance cost for it ?
Thank you.
Thank you.
mrbill1957 Posts: 818
shawn72 Posts: 5Yes they have, but I have not taken look at it yet. I first want to be sure if it is worth taking look or not. I am a student and do not want to take risk in spending more in maintenance. Also I am lured with an offer of Honda Accord 2003 at a reasonable price. This is going to be my first car and I do not have any idea about the car maintenance. Most of my friends suggest to go for less miles run car, but some say Accord can live easily more than 200k. So I am confused if I should get it or get one with less miles run.
Thank you. -
chucko3 Posts: 793At 207K miles, the car is due for a 2nd timing belt job if it's a V6.
If it has not be done so, the cost would be around $1K.
Other expensive maintenance items are exhaust system, air bag control module (mine went bad at 115K), steering system, etc.
If you don't want to take risk of spending more in maintenance, I would recommend avoiding high mileage car.
I used to own an Accord 03EXv6. Maintenance costs did pick up when the car had over 100K miles. -
mrbill1957 Posts: 818200k is high even for a Honda. With that many miles, you just don't know what the future brings. If you were a "back yard mechanic" and were able to do your own repairs, then maybe it would be worth looking at, but if your relying on a mechanic, my suggestion is to look for something with lower miles. My opinion may be different if I knew the background of the car.

shawn72 Posts: 5Hi:
Information about the car :
The owner says that most of the miles are due to highway miles.
He has not done any timing belt job, air bag control module , steering system as they were fine. The transmission has not been changed.
But the transmission slips a bit when shifting from second to third gear, and the car was in one minor accident back in 2008 that resulted in damage to the rear bumper. All the damage was repaired though. Besides the normal oil changes and emission testing, just the tires and O2 sensors replaced.
Thanks -
mrbill1957 Posts: 818By your information, I'm assuming it's a 4 cyl engine?
If the transmission is starting to slip, the problem will just get worse. Personally, I would be looking for something with less miles and signs of a slipping transmission would just reinforce my decision.
As your first car, how about something less $, a Civic maybe?

SEC Searches for Conflicts of Interest in Market for Pieces of Firms Like Facebook
Category: World of Business
Read (2765)
By LIZ RAPPAPORT And JEAN EAGLESHAM, February 22, 2011
The Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating potential conflicts of interest in the fast-growing market for buying and selling shares of private companies such as Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc.
The move is part of a broadening probe by the U.S. agency, still at an early stage, of the thriving bazaar that has sprung up largely beyond the reach of regulators and traditional securities firms. Trades handled by SecondMarket Inc., SharesPost Inc. and other market makers specializing in privately held shares are conveying eye-popping valuations on some companies while disclosing little about their financial results.
* J.P Morgan Plans New-Media Fund (02/14/2011)
* Twitter as Tech Bubble Barometer (02/10/2011)
* Goldman Flooded With Facebook Offers (01/06/2011)
* SEC Probes Private Trades In Facebook, Other Firms (12/29/2010)
* Hot Trade in Private Shares of Facebook (12/28/201)
Such market makers connect holders of private-company stock, often former employees, with potential buyers. But SEC officials are concerned that the middleman role could cause conflicts of interest, especially given the challenges of ascribing a fair value to privately traded shares, according to a person familiar with the situation.
SEC officials also believe some of the firms promoting stock-trading in private companies should be registered as broker-dealer operations but aren't, according to people familiar with the matter. Licensed securities firms are subject to oversight and inspection by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the SEC.
The probe began in late 2010 and gained speed after Goldman Sachs Group Inc. struck a deal with Facebook allowing the Wall Street giant's non-U.S. clients to buy $1.5 billion worth of stock in the social-networking company.
The controversial deal was the catalyst for a continuing SEC review about whether disclosure rules for privately held firms need to be rewritten. The rules require firms with at least 500 shareholders of record in a given type of stock to publicly disclose certain financial information.
"This marketplace is like the early days of the 'junk'-bond market, where companies are finding creative avenues to raise capital," said Lou Kerner, a social-media analyst at Wedbush Securities Inc. The junk-bond market allowed start-up firms with thin track records to tap the capital markets, but it encountered growing pains that included scandals in the late 1990s.
SecondMarket and SharesPost have been communicating with the SEC about their business models and recent transactions, according to people familiar with the matter. They have told agency officials their operations include numerous safeguards for investors, including compliance departments. Investors using their operations are knowledgeable and do their own due diligence, the exchanges also have told the SEC.
SecondMarket already is regulated as a broker-dealer operation. In contrast, SharesPost isn't a licensed securities firm but doesn't need to be, said the company's chief executive, David Weir. He described the firm as an "information portal" that makes money from fees it charges investors or buyers. Its "transaction specialists" collect sales commissions from sellers for helping buyers and sellers agree on a price and sign contracts agreeing to a sale.
"We go to great lengths to provide our members with as much context as possible so they can make informed investment decisions," said Mr. Weir.
A SecondMarket spokesman said the company's "role is to be an objective intermediary." He added that SecondMarket doesn't "do any proprietary investing in our markets or create funds and act as a buyer because we want buyers and sellers to know we are always agnostic in these trades."
The SharesPost specialists are licensed brokers at an affiliated company, Emerson Equity LLC, based in San Mateo, Calif. Shares Post specialists collect a transaction fee of 2% to 5%. Valuations of private-company shares on its website are based on contracts signed using the brokers. SharesPost doesn't disclose the number of contracts that lead to completed transactions.
SecondMarket said it has more than 35,000 members and has completed more than $500 million worth of transactions since April 2009. The company said it works closely to match private companies where shares are for sale with would-be buyers, who must be approved by SecondMarket. A broker helps the two sides meet at a price, with the exchange processing the paperwork needed for the shares to change hands. SecondMarket also sells some shares through an auction.
The private-share exchanges, which also include newer entrants Xpert Financial and GATE Technologies, have shown little interest in making a market in mature, nontechnology companies such as Levi Strauss & Co. or candy maker Mars. Those closely held firms often have access to capital through the corporate debt markets.
"We need transparency in this marketplace," said Vincent Molinari, founder and CEO at GATE Technologies, adding that his firm provides reams of outside research and offers buyers and sellers as much transparency as possible about every trade. "We need the same monitoring and tool sets that the institutional marketplace has come to rely on for credibility and trust. This market is getting bigger, stronger and faster."
Thomas Foley, founder and chief executive at Xpert Financial, said his firm works closely with companies whose shares transact on its system and that it provides investors with companies' audited financials and presentations from management teams. "This market is in its infancy," said Mr. Foley, adding he feels it is important that there is robust regulation and oversight.
On Friday, SharesPost said Facebook was worth about $84 billion, based on a "recent contract" showing that one share of the social-networking company would sell for $37.
In December, the $500 million infusion into Facebook by Goldman and Russian technology company Digital Sky Technologies gave Facebook an implied valuation of $50 billion.
