Now You Can Put Your Instagram Pics on Adidas Sneakers
Do you have any photos on your Instagram feed that would look awesome on a pair of shoes? Well, if you do, Adidas is going to make it happen. Their upcoming #zxflux Photo Print App will allow you to take a photo and get the image printed onto their ZX Flux sneakers.
The app will be available for iPhone and Android this August. The idea is pretty cool and hopefully your images will look sharp enough on the shoes, not blurry. Think of all the cool pics that would make kick-ass shoe art.
What images would you choose for your shoes? Please don't choose a picture of your lunch.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do at Disney for a childs 1st birthday?

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do at Disney for a childs 1st birthday?
Have fun. You're at WDW, that's special enough.
When my son was one we spent the day resort hopping. Not to visit the hotels but we went to every playground, ate snacks and ice cream, some cup cakes. I rode a lot of slides that day. Good memories.
We did the Original Chef Mickey's for dinner. Made the day all about him. Don't forget the Birthday Button, that is free.
You could get a hair cut at the barber shop on Main Street! I believe they do a special for first haircuts. :-)
For my daughter we did a haircut and 1st B-day ears... :bdaymic:
I highly recommend the in-room celebrations that you can do through the Disney Floral folks. For my son's 3rd birthday we got the "Mickey and Pals Big Birthday Wish" package (spent a ton but was so worth it). It was awesome! We came back to the room and it was all decorated and there were boxes all over the room from the characters. Each box had a present from the respective character in it like a Mickey stuffy from Mickey, a dog bowl and placemat from Pluto, a cake from Minnie, etc. Plus there was a special birthday message just for him waiting on our voicemail. It was an experience I will never forget!
I also second the hair cut idea and the birthday earhat ideas! DS's first ever cut was at the barber shop on Mainstreet - also a great experience.
You can also make an ADR at a table service restaurant and call the same people I linked to above to have a personalized birthday cake brought out at the end of the meal. We also did that for DS and he loved it!
We have our DS' first brithday/haircut coming up in a few weeks! :grin:

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Mystique!
Facts about Mystique
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tortoiseshell
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Medium
Mystique's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
Hi, my name is Mystique. I am not quite as out going as my brother Boston Blackie. I like to do a little more investigating before I give my heart away. So even though I may want to, it may take me a little longer to trust you. But if Blackie says it's ok, then I'll be fine then.
I'll purr non-stop, look up at you with adoring eyes, and take treats from your fingers ever so gently. I love to play, especially with my brother & I even let him win once in a while! We love to sit on window sills and watch the outside world. We would really like to go together to our forever home. We are really so cute together. Please email our foster mom right now to meet us at email@example.com.
Other Pets at Friends of Feral Felines
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Mystique, a Portland Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Portland, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Portland.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Portland already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Portland breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Portland paves the way for another one to be saved.

Two things I'm digging this season are popsicle pastel colors and tribal prints. So when I found this dress from ASOS Curve a few months ago that incorporated the two trends it was obvious that it belonged in my closet.
When I received my package from ASOS I found it torn open and the dress was missing from the bag! It was upsetting since I was planning on wearing the dress to an event but the folks over at ASOS are simply amazing. I explained what had happened and they quickly went about sending me a new dress and gave me 10% off my next purchase for my troubles. I love ASOS and not just because they offer the trendiest clothes for curvettes. The company is strongly driven by customer service and satisfaction which was clearly seen in the way their team corresponded with me throughout the process.
Shopping online can be tricky especially when you have a curvy silhouette but ASOS has created a way to shop risk free with complimentary shipping and returns. If you haven't given online shopping a go and are hesitant about ordering the right size, I encourage exploring the site for some fashion finds. Oh and please do tell me of where you like to shop. I'd love to hear from you and find out what are your favorite plus size online retailers. Sharing is caring after all...
Stay lovely.

Full text not available from this repository.
This chapter claims that unconscionability and its cognate exploitation offer a plausible account of the duty to make restitution particularly in the context of undue influence and unconscionable dealing. It begins by claiming that the application criteria of the undue influence and unconscionable dealing doctrines, judicial language, and the facts and outcomes of these cases support the view that restitution is awarded to prevent exploitation or unfair advantage taking. It is claimed that unjust enrichment theory, which is rooted in defective consent, cannot explain the fact that in many of these cases the promisor (or transferor) did consent. In reply to the objection that no 'actively' exploitative behaviour is involved in some of these cases, the chapter claims that exploitation has a 'passive' form which involves the retention of benefits in circumstances where the promisee becomes aware that their receipt of them was unfair. This leads to the chapter's most provocative claim, that a 'defendant-sided' analysis is available for unjust enrichment's core case, the mistaken payment. The chapter concludes by considering the consequences of this analysis for substantive fairness, change of position, corrective justice theory and the morality of the duty to make restitution.

Let me relate a bad experience that I had when I was a renter so that others do not fall victim to the same mistreatment.
Where I live a tentent has 10 days after moving in to report any damage or repairs that may not have been noticed during the quick walk through that they were given when the landlord showed the apartment to potential renters. One of the most common repairs is the oven. I mean how many landlords let everyone who somes to see the apartment turn the oven on and wait to see how hot it gets??? You wouldn't know it did not work until you moved in right? I moved into an apartment and discovered that the oven did not work. I reported it *immediately* to the owner. He said he would fix it. I kept complaining and he kept saying he would fix it. After MONTHS of living there without an oven (stovetop worked), he finally sent a repairman. He had them BILL ME. He claimed (lied) that the oven had been working all along and "I broke it". He told the repair people that I had asked him to call for the repair "Because I didn't know who to call." Sure. I never heard of the Yellow Pages. The repair people fell for it and sent someone over. I let them in. They billed me. Landlord claimed I never told him the oven was broke until that week so I was responsible for the "damage". I could have saved myself this grief and expense by mailing myself a written copy of my complaint the first week, and keeping it unopened with it's post mark. Giving a written notice of repairs to the landlord does not work because they just throw them away. This same landlord pulled another stunt on me. When I looked at the apartment I saw that some of the ceramic tiles in the shower area were missing. I pointed this out and the landlord said he "Would have it fixed before I moved in." If was not fixed when I moved in. I complained. He said he would get to it. Never did. I reminded him. It never got done. When I moved out he held part of my security deposit for "The tiles I ripped off the wall." I'll bet that to this day he has not replaced those tiles and charges everbody for them when they move out, over and over. I should have put it in writting and mailed it to myself for proof. I was stupid and naive. You don't have to be. |

Would it be better to use registered mail (although it would cost you money)? |
- Posted by dreamgarden (My Page) on Thu, Nov 23, 06 at 20:15
Thanks for alerting renters to the crimes landlords commit against tenants. It is good to have a friend along when looking at apts so you have a witness to the problems that exist. Taking pics is also helpful. Congratulations on being able to have your own house after 30 yrs of paying rent! |
Yeah,I stopped trusting and taking someone's word for things and I learned to take pics on moving in day and on moving out day. I also put down that day's morning newpaper on the floor in the middle of each room when I took pics. That would have helped with the missing tile situation but pics wouldn't have proved anything with the broken oven. |
Writting a letter to yourself proves nothing in court. How would the judge know you reported this to the landlord? Use certified mail, but even that only notifies the judge the LL recieved mail from you, not what the letter was. Photographs are great, but again it's not known when they were taken. I have also heard of the photo with todays paper. Again what if the paper is old? Having a "friend" along also does help but doesn't solve all problems. Who's side is the friend on? I'm a landlord and I do a walkthrough with the tenant when they get their keys. I fill out a check sheet together and leave one that I ask them to return with their next months rent as obviously items will be found after they move in. We then do the walkthrough together again when they move out. I am up front about any complaints/ issues I have and always give them an chance to correct these without me hiring it done. Yes many LL are liars/ crooks. Its best to not only search for your new home but a good landlord. Ask the LL for references, or speak with other tenants when the LL is not present. |

Jenni Kayne Spring 2009: Missing the Designer, But Not the Clothes

Jenni Kayne Spring 2009: Missing the Designer, But Not the Clothes
>> Jenni Kayne may be eight months pregnant and unable to travel from her LA homebase, but that didn't keep her Spring 2009 collection from making the cross-country flight in time for Fashion Week.
In the past, Jenni's gone for the models-as-still-life presentation approach, but since she couldn't be at today's presentation, the 31 looks were styled on clean, white mannequins in one big U-shape. Such minimalism kept the focus on the clothes — the simple, effortlessly cool pieces that Jenni has made a name on. Her trademark ensemble — slouchy tank paired with long, floor-grazing skirt — was intact, but there were plenty of new additions as well — the watercolor floral print especially caught my eye.

Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh are shooting baskets in a dimly-lit gym in New York City. The two superstars are approached by detectives Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson.
Stabler: I'm Detective Stabler, this is my partner, Detective Benson. New York police. You guys play here often?
Carmelo Anthony: (without looking away from the hoop) Yeah, pretty nice little gym. Nice to get away from the press sometimes.
Chris Bosh: (without stopping rebounding) What he said.
Benson: You ever see this man?
CA: (briefly looks at the picture, returns to shooting) Yeah, I seen him.
CB: (glances at the picture, keeps rebounding) Yep. Played with him this past season. Why? Did something happen to him?
Stabler: More like he happened to somebody. Or a lot of somebodies. What do you know about the Cleveland Cavaliers?
Anthony and Bosh finally stop shooting. Their ball bounces aimlessly in to the corner of the gym.
CA: I think we're gonna need our lawyers.
Stabler: Oh, come on! You knew exactly what he was doing!
CA: I swear. I had no idea he was doing what he was doing. As far as I knew, he just wanted to hoop with his friends.
CB: (cries)
Benson: Suuuuuure. You expect us to believe that you guys — two of his best friends, two guys who pulled the same move in different cities — you expect us to believe he didn't tell you beforehand?
Ice T: Thass methed up.
CA: I swear! He didn't tell us. LeBron James has nothing to do with me. All I wanted was to play basketball in New York City. Is that such a crime?
Stabler: Look, you low-life pieces of scum. I have three daughters. If you think I'm going to let them grow up in a world where jerks like you can just leave their favorite teams for Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari and a couple of trade exceptions then you've never watched one of the thousands of episodes that we've done that are all basically the same.
CB: (cries)
Billy Hunter enters the interrogation room.
Hunter: This interview is over.
Stabler: Well, well, well, look who decided to return to the scene of the crime.
CB: Sorry, officers, but you can't talk to us without our lawyers present. It's in the Constitution.
Benson: You're right, Chris. We can't. But we can arrest you both, for the highjacking of two franchises.
Benson and Stabler begin to handcuff Anthony and Bosh.
CA: What? No…
Stabler: Yes. Your boy LeBron flipped on you. Told us everything. Copped a plea and everything. Looks like the only highjacking you two are going to be doing is in the showers.
Munch: Exposition.
CB: (cries)

Home Congregations About Us Bookstore Press Room Giving
Page Navigation
The Leap of Faith model will be taken up by the Pacific Western and New England Regions, each of which are comprised of four districts.
Congregational learning communities will be created across districts within each region, and the two regions will share common technology infrastructure, public relations material, and evaluation methods.
Based on Peter Morales' consultation with large and growing congregations, Leap of Faith is more a methodology than a program, inviting congregations into learning communities with larger congregations.
The first year we worked with twelve aspiring and mentoring congregations in five learning communities. Each aspiring congregation made a weekend learning journey to their mentoring congregation in addition to regular phone and web contact throughout the year. They each made a video about their experiences. A General Assembly (GA) workshop was presented in Charlotte at GA2011.
A professional outside evaluation team reports that Leap of Faith consistently:
Sometimes the specifics are more amazing, though. One congregation committed to a new building after decades of struggle with an historic building. Another learned how to maximize their sanctuary through appropriate use of technology and are now filling it twice each Sunday. Yet, another Leap team lead the congregation out into the community where they are now actively and regularly engaged in sharing Unitarian Universalist (UU) values.
This is the second and final year of the pilot project before the methodology will be implemented at the regional level without Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) funding. We are working with 9 teams of aspiring and mentoring congregations across the country. Our aspiring congregations range in size from 135 members to 900 members. All will have made their Learning Journeys by the end of March.
The Northern New England and Pacific Western Regions are preparing to launch regional expressions of Leap of Faith in 2013.
For more information contact growthresources @ uua.org.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.

Getting to know...G.R. Davis
Wofford biology professor G.R. Davis is a photographer who also loves to write. His love of travel enhances both of those things. As a high school student, Davis picked up a photography magazine in the library. Fascinated by the gadgetry involved, he soon became interested in the art behind the technology. It wasn't long before he was shooting for his high school annual. Self taught from the beginning, he learned that good photographers make for good photographs more than good equipment does."For a long time I thought, 'If I just had a good camera I could take good pictures,'" says Davis. "Finally I realized that if you're a good photographer you can do a lot with your subject even with very modest equipment."He learned how to see a shot before taking it, and now, with good equipment, Davis is able to create great shots, as his Web site (http://webs.wofford.edu/davisgr/) displays. His love of travel provides the opportunity, and Davis provides the skill required to capture things. What kinds of things?"Quirky things," he says. "I do a lot of traveling, and I seek out juxtapositions in nature. It's satisfying to go somewhere and see a place in a way that other people didn't see it before. So that when they see my picture they say, 'Well I was there, but I don't remember seeing that.'When not teaching photography classes during Interim at Wofford, Davis has been able to travel to places like the Galapagos Islands and the Amazon. He has an interesting take on teaching photography successfully."I know I've succeeded not when the kids take good pictures at the end, but when they say that they now see the world differently," he says. "That's the nice thing about being a photographer…whether you have your camera in hand or not, you become more observant and appreciative of the world around you."As he sees more of the world, Davis has developed an appreciation for writing about it. He says he mostly writes about things he knows about…family, living in the country, etc…but traveling is allowing him to put his thoughts down and expand his horizons a little bit more.For the man from Fayetteville, N.C., that's what it's all about. He says he loves Wofford because the liberal arts atmosphere allows him to be a fairly serious photographer who can write a little, too. "It's important for my students to see that you can be a scientist and still be much more," he says.He certainly leads by example.

Shoebuy Insider on Caterpillar
Caterpillar made its first splash in construction equipment, not footwear. Designed to combat the marshy conditions of the San Joaquin River Delta, Caterpillar machines have been an essential tool for farmers and laborers since the early 1900's. The scope of Caterpillar's history also expands to theatres of war; the early Holt tractor saw time in World War I in artillery transport, and during WWII, Caterpillar machinery was a known favorite of the U.S. Navy's construction battalion.
With a rich heritage in expanding infrastructure established, Caterpillar began to focus on the foot pushing the pedal. After all, just because machines are being used doesn't mean there isn't some heavy lifting to be done. Hence, Caterpillar boots boast steel toe, electrical hazard protection, Kevlar outsoles and MetGuard features to keep toes dry, comfortable and intact.
But Caterpillar's styles aren't strictly for the work site. They know when the day ends, sweaty work boots aren't exactly ideal for dinner dates and weekend get-togethers. Caterpillar's lines of rugged casual sneakers, work shoes and boots are great for the refined man who doesn't mind getting a little dirt on his hands.

-"The picture on the school wall of yesterday – a not entirely complete collection. This small booklet is divided into three parts: A is theory, B is picture and C is archive. It is held together solely by a rubber band, suggesting incompleteness and allowing the content to be supplemented with new pages. The design on the cover is a reference to the old jackets of school books."

Even though I bought this product only a week ago, I feel satisfied for now. It is a practical and soft brush since it allows to apply eye shadows to the lids overall and also it is very good to use as a pointy brush. But the price of course rises my expectations so we'll see how it performs in the long run.
This was a gift and as its my first expensive eye-shadow brush it certainly does not disappoint. Very sturdy yet soft on the skin/lids!
THis is a very soft yet very effective brush. It is a small eyeshadow brush in a flat, pointed cut. It picks up shadow very well and is precise in the application, getting right into the crease easily. I absolutely adore this brush and after buying 6 or so eyeshadow brushes, I finally caved and on a whim, bought this brush and now can toss all the other Ecotools, Elf, and Quo brushes I have wasted money on. You get what you pay for, and this brush definitely outperforms all my other eyeshadow brushes combined.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell says he did not think it was inappropriate to take a $50,000 loan from a Virginia businessman to help cover the ownership costs of vacation rental properties.
McDonnell was back on the witness stand Friday for the third straight day as his public corruption trial resumed in federal court in Richmond.
The former governor and his wife are charged with accepting more than $165,000 in gifts and loans from former Star Scientific Inc. CEO Jonnie Williams in exchange for promoting his company's dietary supplements.
McDonnell has said he did nothing illegal and testified Friday that he would not have taken a loan if he thought it was corrupting his office.

When people write their CV, many people tend to exaggerate their skills and qualities. For example, 'I interact well with others, am extremely pro-active' blah blah blah. Because they are not visible attributes, the fibs are difficult to detect.
Two United States psychologists, Günter J. Hitsch from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and Ali Hortacsu from the University of Chicago Dept of Economics, decided to test how honest people were when they shared information through dating sites and whether people adapt their profiles to use what they perceive as the most desirable answers (Titled What Makes You Click – Mate Preferences in Online Dating).
After analysing data from 20,000 dating profiles, they first noticed online daters were taller, slimmer, better looking and a lot richer than the national average (at least that's how they described themselves).
More than 4 per cent of online daters claimed to earn over $200,000 (£123,000) a year when, typically, less than 1 per cent of internet users actually earn that much. This suggests at least three out of the four are lying.
When it came to weight, women were undoubtedly the biggest fibbers. The study found in general, females claimed to be around 20lbs lighter – thank goodness for Photoshop! Men were more honest and their internet dating weights came within the national average.
Amazingly, 72 per cent of women claimed to be above average in the looks department – with 24 per cent claiming to be very attractive.
Men also claimed to be gorgeous – with 68 per cent saying they were above average and 19 per cent opting for very attractive.
All this begs the question: are they blatant fibbers or do they see themselves differently?
We can see both genders changed their answers, modifying them to what they perceive to be the most important attributes for a potential partner.
Women understand men are more generally attracted to visible attributes so body size, hair colour and other physical details were changed.
Men, on the other hand, feel woman are searching for security and they understand women generally prefer taller partners so they are more likely to embellish their height and earnings.
Men tend to avoid women on low incomes but what was also discovered is that females with a high income also receive fewer messages which indicates men find high earning woman threatening.
No one can hide physical shortcomings and at some point they will actually have to meet a date – let's be honest, if these were company adverts they could be prosecuted for false advertising!
By far the biggest way to attract few responses on a dating website is to post a profile without a picture. On average, members with a profile picture get 40 per cent more emails than one without.
This means a balding, overweight, low paid and not very attractive male has a better chance than a handsome, $200,000 income guy who doesn't upload a photo because people suspect any member without a photo is either very unattractive or has something to hide (a wife?).
Trying to find the love of your life is difficult enough. If people join a non-specific dating site which caters for all demographics, 56 per cent of men will never receive a single email. That figure drops to 21 per cent for women.
When members join a specific dating site such as parent dating, email responses rose significantly for both genders. This shows dating sites such as those for parents, specific religions or a particular sexual orientation provide people with a better chance of finding a partner.

I would say, getting married as a solution to concupicence is a cheat on both spouses. Both deserve a real friendship based on intellectual, cultural, moral, and emotional bonds...not just someone to keep the bed warm.
Getting married just to have a sexual partner seems like a very poor reason for an Altar Date.

Well fans, the Purple Personnel Pickers took a mighty swing from the heels (to adopt a somewhat inapt baseball metaphor) in last weeks draft, and we wont know whether they hit a home run or struck out until at least the end of the 2011-12 season, assuming it is played. Their number one pick, QB Christian Ponder, was rated no better than a third rounder early on, but it does appear now that he would not have remained on the board for the Vikes had they traded down. He will either make it as a starting QB or bust, in which case fans of the Purple will have a long time to regret that DT Nick Fairley or CB Prince Amukamara were passed up in Ponders favor.
The second round choice, Kyle Rudolph of Notre Dame, was considered the best of a not stellar group of TEs in this years draft, but that position is low on the list of Viking needs. He had a serious hamstring injury, and although his reputation as a receiver is good, reports on his speed in the 40 are mixed.
Fourth round pick Christian Ballard, a defensive tackle out of Iowa, was projected to go as high as the late first round. That is, until he was reported to have tested positive for marijuana at the combine, never a good sign. Last years value pick lineman, Everson Griffen, had character issues which dropped him down the charts. He has had run-ins with the police during the off season, and supposedly required a double-tap from the Taser before he was convinced to go quietly...
Those who think the Vikes should have taken sure-thing CB Prince Amakumara with their first pick can take some comfort in getting another corner, Utahs Brandon Burton, in the fifth round. He has decent speed, size, and skills, and really seems to be a find down this low. He was projected to go as high as the second round. There are no indications that he is anything but a good citizen, even with leadership skills. If Chris Cook and Cedric Griffen can come back from their injuries, last years weak defensive backfield could become a strong point.
The Vikes finally took an offensive lineman with the first of their four sixth round picks, DeMarcus Love out of Arkansas, who projected at one point to go as high as the second round, and fell off this far for reasons unknown, not having anything to do with drug-taking or incipient criminality. It wouldnt be unreasonable to hope he might start sometime next fall.
The Vikes addressed their offensive line problems again with their next sixth rounder, center Brandon Fusco out of little known Slippery Rock, yet another value pick rated as high as the third best at his position in the draft and a fourth-rounder. At the least, he will push John Sullivan for the starting job.
With the last of their sixth rounders the Vikes got another player who slid down the board from as high as the third round, Ohio States Ross Homan, an inside linebacker who was first-team All Big Ten his senior year.
So, after taking some big chances early on, the Vikes found consistent value deeper in the draft with a mitt-full of choices. Especially if Christian Ponder pans out, the Vikes could look very different next season, for the better. If he doesnt, the front office and coaching staff may soon look different.

Field Report: Genelec 6010A & 5040A
Moving on up
With the low end taken care of by the 5040A, 120Hz and above is accurately handled by a pair (or more if in surround) of 6010A active loudspeakers. The sleek and compact design complements any desktop where pristine 74Hz to 18kHz response is needed. It is just over 7" high, about 4.5" square, weighing 3 pounds. It contains a 3" bass driver and 0.75" metal dome treble driver (each with their own independent 12W amplifiers) and can produce an SPL greater than 100dB.
As is the 5040A, the 6010A is made of die-cast aluminum and boasts the Minimum Diffraction Enclosure design, which reduces edge diffraction. It also boasts Directivity Control Waveguide, which helps correct frequency imbalances in poor acoustic environments. The 6010A is magnetically shielded, making it operable near CRT monitors.
While not necessary for normal operation, the 6010A is fed by the RCA outputs on the 5040A (cables supplied), but it can be fed by other means if the sub is not included in the system. Level control, bass tilt and desktop control, along with power mains and audio input are located on the back of the speaker. Level control adjusts the input sensitivity of the speaker for proper level matching. Bass tilt dipswitches allow for bass response adjustment in increments of 2dB. This feature is used when the 6010A is placed near a wall or other boundary that may skew the behavior of its lower frequencies. Desktop control attenuates frequencies near 200Hz by 4dB, which can be problematic when a horizontal reflective surface exists between the user and the speaker. The 6010A has three pairs of threaded holes on the back that are compatible with Omnimount, Vesa or Sanus brackets. However, for everyday desktop use, it sits on the Iso-Pod, which very effectively insulates the table from speaker vibrations. The adjustable Iso-Pod allows for correct alignment. The 6010A can also be mounted on a mic stand using the 3/8" UNC threaded hole.

The evolution of our industry and audio production is moving us toward more condensed gear. Genelec's 6010A and 5040A system is portable and compact with no sacrifice of quality and accuracy. When car-crushing reference monitors are needed and lack of space and portability are the reality, this all-terrain system is the right fix.

New scam tries to give you a free Celestial Steed {WoW}
Jul 13th 2010 2:40PM interesting theory;
I can say from direct observation of my own account (that was hacked) that I never click links in mails, I've never bought gold, and I've never given my personal information to anyone who asked, key loggers are not likely considering the amount of security programs I use.
New theory: hackers can use addons (either made by them or a corrupted one) to hijack accounts, or possibly use addons that share information with other members to infect multiple subjects (ie gatherer).
I agree that the majority problem is that there is a consumer base for these hackers and it mirrors real world issues: Sudan, a slave goes for around $50 U.S. dollars and slavery is very prevalent in the area. Ironically multiple "humanitarian" groups will buy slaves and set them free... of course they are supporting the slavery system and creating more of a market for slave raiders to use. If there is no market for it then there won't be any slave raiding, if there is no market for gold then there won't be any account raiding regardless of possible hijacking techniques used.

It helps that my g/f usually heals for me and that we can both agree when a person is being a complete dick, especially when there is a new 80 in the group... yes they don't have your ICC gear and they don't fully understand the fights... guess what?

Finishing with a two-day total of 324-305 - 629, coach John Maupin's club won by 25 strokes over North Georgia (326-328 - 654) in the 36-hole event played on the Cleveland Country Club course.
Shorter University (328-335 - 663) was third, while Trevecca Nazarene (337-332 - 669) was third and Tennessee Wesleyan (348-338 - 686) rounded out the top five finishers in the nine-team field.
Senior Courtney Shelton fired a 2-under 70 on Tuesday to lead the Lady Flames' victory. She rolled in a 40-foot putt on the 18th hole to conclude an outstanding round. In earning medalist honors, Shelton battled back from an 81 on Monday to post the 151 result and win by six strokes over Shorter's Carolin Westerburg, who claimed second place.
"I am really happy for Courtney," Maupin said. "She made quite a comeback for the individual title today, and capped a 1-shot victory with that long birdie putt on the last hole."
Lee's Cori Burns (81-77 - 158) and King University's Elizabeth Swallows (80-78 - 158) tied for third place and two other Lady Flames, Callie Kitchens and Bernadette Little, came in at (81-79 - 160), all joining Shelton, Swallow and Burns on the all-tournament squad.
Lee's Madison Alexander had an 81-84 - 165 and Sarah Robertson, playing in the individual field of 47 golfers, placed eighth with an 80-82 - 162.
"I am very pleased for us to end our (fall) season in this way," said Maupin. "We played much better today, and it feels great to end the fall with two wins. It is also important for us to defend our home course, and we played with that kind of purpose today. Overall, I am pleased with what we accomplished this week on a tough course."
Maupin stressed his appreciation for the support of the Country Club. "I want to first thank Lamar Mills, Jeff Travis, each of their staffs, and the members at Cleveland Country Club for being great hosts this week. The golf course was in excellent shape, and I thought everyone involved helped make this a great event for all the teams involved."

Mary Mac's Tea Room Restaurant Review: Firmly clinging to the rails of authenticity, Mary Mac's veritable rabbits warren of spaces remains bright and lively, with good lighting and vivid colors. Order a meat and two, three or four vegetables. The house specialty is fried chicken, but other homey offerings include country-fried steak, meatloaf, and chicken and dumplings, the latter simply the benchmark version of the dish. Rainbow trout and fried catfish are draws with seafood lovers, and roast chicken, pork roast or turkey with cornbread dressing are guaranteed chill-chasers. Among vegetables, you'll find sweet potato soufflé, turnip greens, black-eyed peas, okra and fried green tomatoes, and don't bypass the tomato pie. While the Southern view of vegetables is to use meat as a seasoning, many of these are vegetarian friendly. Breads made on-site include addictive cinnamon rolls (get some to go by inquiring at the check-out stand), cornbread and yeast rolls. For dessert, choose the peanut butter pie without fail. Complement your meal with good sweet tea, although there is a basic wine list. We advise early arrival as you may encounter lengthy waits at peak times. |

Purpose: To provide relief for medical expenses incurred by patients who reside within our primary service area who do not have the financial resources to pay for their Roper St. Francis Healthcare services.
Policy: Roper St Francis Healthcare ("RSFH") will offer financial assistance and Medical Indigency Adjustments to patients who meet the established Financial Assistance guidelines. Family size and the Federal Poverty Guidelines published annually by the Department of Health and Human Services will be the primary factors used to determine Financial Assistance eligibility.
The patient and/or guarantor's gross income, assets and expenses, and the dollar amount of the hospital bill may be taken into consideration. Patients with an annual income of 400% or less of the Federal Poverty Guidelines may be eligible for Charity Adjustments. Medical Indigency Adjustments may be available for patients whose RSFH medical expenses outweigh the ability to pay, constituting a financial hardship. This is based on medical expenses that exceed 20% of the guarantor's annual gross income per calendar year.
The hospital shall send to anyone who requests information on the hospital's Financial Assistance Program a letter outlining required information and a financial assistance application form. Requests for financial assistance may be proposed by sources other than the patient, such as the patient's physician, family members, social service organizations, community or religious groups, or hospital personnel. Applications for Financial Assistance must be complete and accurate to qualify for financial assistance.
Non-discrimination:RSFH shall render services to all members of the community who are in need of medical care regardless of the ability of the patient, insured or uninsured, to pay for services. The determination of full or partial financial Assistance will be based on the patient's ability to pay and will not be abridged on the basis of age, sex, race, creed, religion, disability, sexual orientation or national origin. Non U.S. residents must provide necessary documentation proving legal visitation rights, for example, a tourist, work or student visa.
Financial Assistance Services:Financial Assistance applications will be accepted for consideration for all services. (Each Family member over the age of 18 must complete and sign their own application.) Cosmetic services, sterilization reversals, Bariatric Services and erectile dysfunction are not eligible. Birth defects are not considered cosmetic. Accounts indicating possible third party involvement (i.e., worker's compensation, auto accident coverage) will be reviewed in detail and may require proof of no third party liability.
Determination of Eligibility:Verifiable proof of total household income and/or assets may be required to approve financial assistance. Examples of verifiable proof include, but are not limited to:
All other avenues of payment must be exhausted prior to granting Hospital Financial Assistance (i.e., government and commercial insurance payments, third party payments, Medicaid, Third Party Liability, Workers Comp, etc.).
Patients that abuse the RSFPP Financial Assistance Program, either by requesting unnecessary procedures, inappropriate actions toward staff, or by utilizing an unnecessary treatment location, may be denied Financial Assistance. These instances will be reviewed by RSFPP Management to determine if the services are to be excluded.
Total Household Income is defined as all available income to the dependent patient, which is indicated on the Federal Income Tax Return, and/or all other income sources listed above. If a current Federal Income Tax Return and/or the above income sources are unavailable, the income information and/or the monthly expenses listed on the application may be considered for charity calculations.
Bankruptcies: Guarantors who have filed for bankruptcy under chapter 7 and 13 (discharged and voluntary) are considered destitute and will be approved for 100% Charity adjustment. Upon determination that a patient has filed for bankruptcy, we will obtain the Bankruptcy Letter to determine the timeframe and entities for relief of debt. If we are listed as a debtor, the balance will be adjusted.
Confidentiality:The need for Financial Assistance may be a sensitive and deeply personal issue for the recipients.Confidentiality of information and preservation of individual dignity shall be maintained for all who seek charitable services. Orientation of staff and the selection of personnel who will implement this policy and procedure should be guided by these standards. No information obtained in the patient's Financial Assistance Application will be released without expressed permission for such release. Applications will be scanned in the imaging system and only accessible to select personnel. Hard copy documentation will be shredded.

Meet Mark E. Silberg, DMD
Dr. Mark Silberg, Periodontist, Implantologist
Dr. Silberg is a native of Pittsburgh, PA. After graduating from Peabody High School's Scholars Program he received his BS in Psychology from the University of Syracuse. He then attended the University of Pittsburgh and received his dental degree in 1978. After graduation, he received his postdoctoral specialty training in periodontology from the University of Pennsylvania. In 1980, he moved back to Pittsburgh to join the faculty of the Pitt Dental School as an Assistant Clinical Professor and began his private practice of periodontics, known as The Silberg Center For Dental Science.
Dr. Silberg is the founder of the Discovery Study Club, which promotes continuing education and training for member dentists and their staffs. He lectures on implants and periodontics.
Since my earliest days in dental school, I have been fascinated with the concept of replacing teeth. I always wondered why in the world we had to destroy perfectly good teeth by grinding them down in order to replace, or repair, a tooth with a crown or a bridge. Or, why we were still being taught how to make and place dentures in peoples mouths, when the treatment was 300 years old. Surely, I thought, there had to be a better way. It just didn't make sense to me.
In 1974, when I started dental school, dental implants were generally not being done. I heard stories and rumors that a New York dentist, Leonard Linkow, was experimenting with dental implants, but he was said to be a "mad man." Many also believed that a dental implant could never really replace a tooth and, therefore, Leonard was harshly criticized and nearly run out of the profession, just like Galileo or any of the other great minds of science who dared to challenge the status quo.
Upon graduation from the University of Pittsburgh Dental School, I turned down an oral surgery program in 1978 and instead,I accepted an advanced specialty training program in Periodontics at the University of Pennsylvania. I wanted to be able to save teeth instead of removing them.
In late 1984, I found out that Dr. Linkow had perfected dental implant treatment and was training other dentists to place dental implants. I made sure that I was able to get my very first training in implant dentistry directly with Dr. Linkow in early 1985. Thus, my implant career began. Since then, my primary interest has been to determine how to make the use of dental implants more predictable and more available to patients. My focus today in permanent teeth dental implant dentistry has evolved into fine-tuning the dental implant placement process, to maximize the esthetics of the final restoration and the duration of the implant, while minimizing any inconvenience to my patients by making the process safer and more efficient.
From day one of my life as a periodontist, I have worked to promote the importance of the highest quality treatment, along with the highest possible regard for the patients health, safety and comfort, within my own practice, and within the community of dental and medical professionals. These values have become the guiding principles of my (and my staff's) approach to medicine, embodied in our patient CARE Continuum.
When I'm not practicing dental implant dentistry I share my experience and insight with fellow dentists. I have always loved to teach and share knowledge with my fellow dentists, which is why I formed the Discovery Study Club in 1994. The Discovery Study Club is part of an international network of Seattle Study Clubs for dentists and dental specialists. As the founder and director of the Discovery Study Club, my mission is to promote continuing education and training for member dentists and their staffs by giving us a forum to work together, share knowledge, study and learn new technology and better ways of planning our treatments, for the benefit of our patients. The most rewarding aspect of directing a club like this is that I get to work and study with fellow doctors who all share common values of commitment, excellence and integrity.
I have also lectured extensively on implants and periodontics at a variety of universities and dental associations and societies, such as the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, Allegheny General Hospital Dental Department, Childrens Hospital Pediatric Residents, the Three Rivers Dental Meeting and even the Pittsburgh Zoo, where I served as a special advisor.
Read the Article: Dr. Mark Silberg, a member of the Global Dentist Panel, is interviewed by Apex magazine.
VALUOCITY: A Fable for Dentists
Dr. Marc Cooper and Dr. Mark Silbergs new book, VALUOCITY, is the first practice management book written as a fable. In the style of highly successful business books by Blanchard, Johnson and Lencioni, VALUOCITY tells the story of Dr. Carl Oldquist, a seasoned, previously successful owner of a practice in Madison Wisconsin who is confronting the pressing problems and issues of running a practice in todays tumultuous economic times.
The recession has directly impacted Carls practice. His revenues are down 20 percent, new patients are decreasing, receivables are growing like a weed, his staff is unresponsive to the situation and his personal life is beginning to unravel. Carl feels helpless to turn his situation around.
It is only in the chance meeting with Dr. Sidney Kaprov on the San Antonio River Walk during the annual ADA Convention that Carl is introduced to concepts that will ultimately lead him to understand that the practice he has worked so hard to build is no longer equipped to work in the new economy.
When Carl visits Sidney at his ranch in northern New Mexico, during a highly engaging two and a half days of one-on-one interactions, Carl learns the distinctions that will allow him to reformulate his practice, enabling him to be highly successful and satisfied now and well into the future.

On Immigration Policy, Deportation Relief Seen As More Important Than Citizenship

When we were brainstorming about our new blog, one of our top requests to the designers was that the site have a strong visual component. You don't have to be Edward Tufte to know that compelling imagery can enhance or even trump verbal communication.
Bloggers should take the time to choose fun/impactful/meaningful images to go with their posts. For many that's a steep challenge: They feel competent to write perfect blog posts, but they have no idea where to find great illustrations or how to marry them to their words.
Finding Images is the Easy Part
istockphoto.com has many low-res, royalty-free images available for just a dollar or two. I really appreciate some of the service's granular search options (you can limit your search to horizontal- or vertically-oriented images, or to just those images that are silhouetted on white). The gurus at istockphoto have also spent a bunch of time thinking about how people search. So if you put in "score," it differentiates between results for "musical scores" and those for "sports scores."
I also like using Flickr where you can find a slew of images for commercial use available available at no cost under flexible license terms as long as you correctly attribute the photo to its creator.
Then there is the stewpot of Google Images which (unlike Bing) has an advanced search setting that lets you search for images for commercial reuse.
I get a lot of use from the site imagechef.com where you can add your own photos or headlines to a variety of fun/useful templates to create a compelling illustration.
Finally, I think bloggers should think about using their own photos and/or artwork. I see a lot of great images captured by friends and colleagues in my Facebook stream that could be re-purposed.
Choosing the Right Image
Now there's the rub. With the format of "It's All About Revenue" the headline and the image have to work together to lure in the reader. I would suggest that bloggers START there--with headlines and images.
- Do some brainstorming on headlines and images that play off or reinforce each other
- Keep a notebook (or Google doc) to jot down ideas as they come to you
- If you see a great image that might work for some future blog post, do a quick screen capture for future reference (SnagIt lets you tag captures for easy retrieval)
Now, when you sit down to write your blog post, you've got a handy stash of headline/visual concepts that can be put to use right away.
So, do you have any other great places to find images for blogging? We'd love some pointers! Also, what are the blogs that you think do a fantastic job at using images to enhance their posts?

The Galleria
Piazza Del Duomo
Milan, Italy
Contributed by Project for Public Spaces
An arched, glass ceiling connects several Neo-Classical buildings, creating an indoor shopping arcade adjacent to Milan's central square.
Why It Works
Coming soon... Tell us what you think about the Galleria by clicking on "Comments" above.
History & Background
Architect Giuseppe Mengoni refurbished the Piazza Duomo, Milans central square, in the middle of the 19th Century, and built the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in 1877. He created a covered shopping area by building an arched iron-and-glass ceiling over the intersection of two major streets. The glass roof connected the existing Neo-Classical buildings along these two ornately tiles streets. The arcade included shops and restaurants, and offices and apartments occupied upper floors.
Both the materials he used and the concept of creating an enclosed shopping area were innovative at the time. The model would soon be replicated in many cities, Naples and Moscow, to name two. The Galleria is not completely enclosed, however; the arched doorways are open.
The Neo-Classical design of the North and South entrances was intended to be repeated on the West side, but was never completed. Just one day before the Galleria was inaugurated, as Mengoni was inspecting some decorative work from scaffolding, he slipped, fell, and plunged to his death.

i used to love the Punisher comic books...dont really know how well
this character will translate to the big screen. It looks like an action packed movie but i dont know how it will distinguish itself from flicks like Bourne Identity, the Transporter, Mission Impossible etc...
They just did a Punisher movie a few years ago, and I don't think many people saw it.Originally Posted by ghettoscott
That didn't stop them from making another Hulk movie, though.
I like the previous Punisher movie...solid film.
The Hulk...not so much.
I read somewhere that Ed Norton signed on to do the new Hulk movie because they promised him that it would be more like the old Bill Bixby television series than the last movie. However, Marvel got final edit, and I think they turned it into just another mindless action romp instead of the dramatic piece that Norton signed on to do. I've heard that he wants nothing to do with the movie now (i.e. won't do the standard promotional stuff) since he was so mis-led about it all. I usually really enjoy Norton's stuff, but I think I will pass on this one.Originally Posted by ShawnMedGuy

I bought a small, inexpensive Everred maple at Costco. I don't know if it has much in the way of roots, and I don't know if I should leave it in the pot it came in for now or transplant it into a larger pot. Suggestions appreciated |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by undercover_owl 8 Pac.NW (My Page) on Sat, Apr 25, 09 at 5:30
Leave it in the pot it is in now. I presume it was a cutting, so no, it doesn't have much going in the way of roots, yet. Next year at this time, it may be a different story. |
- Posted by herman_neutics (My Page) on Sat, Apr 25, 09 at 16:57
Owl are you prescient? Is 'Everred' normally propagated by cutting? Cutting grown plants could be root bound. I think it's improbable that costco is selling cutting grown cultivars but I may be mistaken. Dev you could take a look and see if there is a graft mark on your tree and determine how it was propagated. You could also gently lift the plant out of the pot and check on the roots. If the pot is very full of roots you could pot up and tease the roots apart a little bit in to new soil. If the roots have room to grow maybe check again in Fall and repot then. |
I will take a look at the roots. Thanks for the advice. |
I would go ahead and repot your maple now. I have successfully repotted containerized JMs throughout the year without ever losing a tree. Most trees sold in garden centers are already root bound when you buy them and benefit from replanting in a larger pot with good potting soil. Keep the tree in a shady spot for at least a week and water it well. |
Again, Dawgie - there is a distinct difference between repotting and potting-up. While there is no harm in potting-up whenever it's convenient, there is very good reason to avoid repotting, which includes a soil change and root work, because of the probability of severe set-back or death of the plant. You should always avoid repotting deciduous trees while they are in leaf except in the case of extreme emergency. Al |
"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" I'm aggressive with Acer p. roots when I repot in spring. The tridents roots are often even reduced to where the plant is at near cutting status and all the other Acers are totally bare-rooted with the roots pruned back hard at repot time, but it is very unwise to undertake major root work while the tree is in leaf. I agree the roots are not fragile. The Dr. in the 'fragile roots' link is talking about 'transplanting'. I am guessing she is discerning enough to delineate between planting and transplanting. If you called her and asked if she recommends bare-rooting and correcting root problems when transplanting a deciduous tree while in leaf, her answer will be a resounding "NO". If you ask her if performing this work on a dormant/quiescent tree at transplant time, her answer will be "YES". The group most skilled at maintaining healthy trees in containers are probably experienced bonsai practitioners. Ask ANY one of them if you should do any significant disturbance of the root mass while the tree is in leaf, and they will answer, "Only in a dire emergency - perhaps as a last alternative when the viability of the tree hangs in the balance."
