Previously Convicted Sex Offender Pleads Guilty to Sexually Exploiting a Minor to Produce Child Pornography
Baltimore, Maryland - Larry Cordell, age 41, of Frederick, Maryland, pleaded guilty today to sexually exploiting a minor to produce child pornography, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein.
According to his guilty plea, on December 31, 2006, as part of an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Cordell, law enforcement officers interviewed several victims and learned that Cordell had made videotapes of himself having sex with minor males. Officers recovered 10 video tapes which showed Cordell having sex with several minor boys. Additional interviews with three victims revealed that Cordell would give them gifts and money to entice them to have sex. The victims reported being from 12 to 14 years old at the time the abuse began and were able to identify themselves on still shots from the videos. Cordell was previously convicted in 1986 of a second degree sex offense involving a minor male in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland.
Cordell faces a minimum mandatory sentence of 25 years, and a maximum of 50 years in prison followed by supervised release for life. U.S. District Judge Richard D. Bennett has scheduled sentencing for May 30, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. Cordell remains detained.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children from online exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys' Offices, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as identify and rescue victims. For more information about Project Safe Childhood, please visit www.projectsafechildhood.gov. Details about Maryland's program are available at http://www.usdoj.gov/usao/md/Safe-Childhood/index.html.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Frederick City Police Department, Frederick County Sheriff's Office and Frederick County State's Attorney J. Charles Smith and his office for their assistance in the investigation and prosecution of this case. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Kwame J. Manley, who is prosecuting the case.

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 Mindie!
Facts about Mindie
- Breed: Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier
- Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Mindie's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
INITIAL BIO 10/06/2012 MEET MINDIE! She is a tiny little girlie who is 6-7 months old and weighs only 3 lbs! Mindie is being fostered in Mount Pleasant, SC. She just came into rescue, so we know little about her other than she is a very sweet little girlie who loves her person, but hates going to the vet! She adores her Foster Dad and Mom and is tolerating her foster brothers and sister for now. PLEASE NOTE: Because of Mindie's tiny size, she can ONLY go into an adult only home! Stay tuned for further details on Mindie as her foster parents get to know her better.
Other Pets at United Yorkie Rescue - SC - Bob and Carol Neumann
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Mindie, a Mount Pleasant Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier for sale in Mount Pleasant, or seeking a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier puppy from a breeder in Mount Pleasant.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier breeders who help with Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Mount Pleasant paves the way for another one to be saved.

Welcome to the Introduction to High Brightness LEDs (HB LEDs) and Color Science training. This online training will introduce the basics behind color science, the industry terminology used when describing colors, the basic operation of LEDs, and how HB LEDs are used.
How We See
All light is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye. How do our eyes perceive light? Within your eye's cornea are cells that react chemically to light. These cells are divided into rods and cones. Rods contain chemicals that react to the amount of light hitting each cell. Cones contain chemicals called color pigments that have different spectral sensitivities. Humans typically have 3 types of cones. There are Short-wavelength, middle-wavelength, and long-wavelength cones that react to specific color wavelengths.
Color Spectrum
Since light is a form of radiation, it can be measured by wavelengths. Wavelengths between 400nm and 700nm are visible to the naked eye. Energy below 400 nm is considered ultraviolet, while energy above 700 nm is infrared. The three types of cones in the cornea have peak absorption rates for these particular wavelengths. The most common form of color blindness in humans is Deuteranomaly, more commonly referred to as red-green color blindness. This is usually caused by the middle-wavelength cones being shifted towards the red end of the spectrum. This makes it harder to distinguish between red and green shades. But looking at this color spectrum you might be asking yourself where are pink and brown and other colors that we can perceive?
Relaxation Oscillator Circuit
Just as our cornea is divided into rods and cones, everything we see can be separated into a brightness component and a color component. The terms usually used are luminance and chrominance, respectively. Luminance is a pure measure of brightness alone. Whereas chrominance is the dominant wavelength perceived. Another way to think of it is that the colors white and grey have the same chromaticity, but different luminance levels. It is the same with colors like pink and brown. Pink is simply a "brighter" shade of red while brown is a "darker" shade of red.
Frequency Measurement
In the 1920s, two independent scientists decided to study human sight and how the human eye perceives color. In 1931, a group called the International Commission on Illumination used both scientists' research to standardize the measurement of color and colorimetry was born. Colorimetry is the science that describes colors using numbers. The commission decided to represent all visible light using three numbers, called tristimulus values. By using these three numerals, any color can be replicated exactly. The three numbers, represented by a capital X, Y, and Z, represent both the luminance and chrominance portions of everything we see. More specifically, Y is the luminance, X and Z are a function of the luminance and chrominance. One of the challenges faced by the committee was that they needed to provide some scalable method of representing chrominance. They decided on using a two-dimensional map of chromaticity that is now known as the CIE 1931 Color Space or CIE XYZ color space.
CIE 1931 Color Space Chromaticity Diagram
This is the CIE 1931 color space chromaticity diagram. It covers the range of colors that the average human can perceive. While colors exist beyond the curved figure (which other animals like insects can perceive), this curved figure contains the range of human vision, also called the gamut of human vision. The outer curved boundary is called the spectral locus, and the numbers in blue labeled around the curve are the wavelengths (in nanometers) of the colors. Each given color point within the diagram can then be represented as an x and y coordinate in this diagram. For example, this specific point in the diagram has an x coordinate of 0.2, y coordinate of 0.4. Pure white is represented in this diagram at exactly (1/3, 1/3). This is sometimes called the "white point". An interesting property of the chromaticity diagram is that if I draw a straight line between any two points within the diagram, the color at any point along that line can be created using a mixture of those two points. Midpoint between these two colors would be created using an equal mixture of the two colors.
Tristimulus Values
So what is the connection between the chromaticity coordinates and the XYZ tristimulus values? As mentioned before Y is the luminance factor. The x and y coordinates are a function of the XYZ values as seen in these equations. So if we know Y and we know the chromaticity coordinates, using the equations above, we can calculate X and Z using these permeations.
Evoluation of Lighting
One integral use of color is in basic architectural lighting. One of the most important inventions in the history of mankind was the invention of electrically powered light. Thomas Edison first publicly demonstrated the incandescent light bulb on Dec. 31, 1870. The downside of the incandescent light bulb is that the filament which drives the light emission burns away rather quickly. Average life span of an incandescent light bulb is between 750 and 1000 hours. Twenty three years after Edison's demonstration, Nikola Tesla displayed fluorescent lights at the Chicago World's Fair. Fluorescent lights can operate 10 to 20 times longer than incandescent light bulbs. After those two demonstrations, there were very few major developments in lighting for almost a century. One rather recent innovation to the fluorescent light was the creation of compact fluorescent light bulbs in the 1980s. These incandescent light bulb replacements are both more energy efficient as well as longer lasting. The downside is that fluorescent lights contain trace amounts of mercury that cannot be disposed of traditionally. But what does the future of lighting look like? More and more, Light Emitting Diodes, or LEDs, are becoming a popular choice for architectural lighting applications. This is because they are even more energy-efficient and longer lasting than both fluorescent and incandescent lights. In addition, LEDs are completely "green" solutions. This is a picture of an LED light bulb. Clusters of LEDs can be packaged together to replace standard lightbulbs.
LED Applications
But besides just architectural lighting, LEDs can be used for a number of applications. LEDs can be used for signs, signals, flashlights, and more.
LED Advantages
Why are LEDs becoming more popular every day? LEDs have many advantages over traditional lighting sources: First and most importantly, it's extremely energy efficient – it produces more light per Watt than incandescent bulbs. As the cost of energy continues to rise, system designers are looking for ways to be more energy efficient. Second, the life of an LED is approximately 100,000 hours, which is twice as long as the best fluorescent bulbs and 20 times longer than any incandescent bulbs. That means lights do not have to be replaced quite as often. LEDs do not need the use of color filters which can mean a lower total system cost. Along the same lines, LEDs come in 16.7 million color variants making it incredibly flexible for any design. This is especially important in large general signage applications. Unlike incandescent light bulbs that tend to turn yellow when dimmed, LEDs won't change color. LEDs can be designed to focus its light and do not require external reflectors. LEDs are durable – as the LEDs are encased inside a solid plastic case, there are no fragile glass and filament pieces. And LEDs can achieve full brightness in a matter of microseconds which is important in dynamic applications.
LED Disadvantages
However, LEDs also have a few disadvantages: Because they are relatively new to commercial usage, LEDs are currently more expensive in lumens per dollar than incandescent and fluorescent lights. But even though LEDs are currently more expensive to purchase, they provide the long life and power savings that many systems desire. And as the LED market entrenches itself in commercial applications, the cost will eventually go down. Another relative disadvantage is that the LED technology is much newer than incandescent and fluorescent lighting solutions. As such, there are different design challenges that are being faced. For example, LEDs are more versatile and can create all different colors, but the exact color output is dependent on a stable current and ambient temperature. Because they are new to commercial use, many LED suppliers have very different methods for binning or labeling LEDs. However, new design challenges are usually resolved with new solutions that address those challenges. As LED-driven applications proliferate, so will the technology that implements them.
LED Definitions
So what exactly is an LED? LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. It is a semiconductor chip encased in a solid plastic lens that emits light. Color emitted from the LED depends on the composition and condition of the semiconductor material used for the making of the LED. The colors emitted can range from infrared to visible light to near ultraviolet.
LED Components
So how does an LED work? If we look at a single LED, it consists of the anode and cathode which are the positive and negative terminals, the actual heart of the LED which is the diode, and this is all packaged together in a plastic casing. As we have mentioned earlier, light or photons are really forms of visible energy. In 1961, researchers at Texas Instruments discovered that Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) diodes generated infrared light when an electric current was applied. The energy generated was due to the reaction of diode. So why does a diode emit energy?
Diodes Basics
As we said, the heart of an LED is the Diode which comprises a section of N-type and a section of P-type semiconductor material bonded together. N-type material has extra negatively charged particles called electrons while the P-type material has extra positively charged particles called holes. When the N-type and P-type material are combined with no external charge, the free electrons in the N-type material move from the negatively-charged area to positively charge area (P-type) and the free electrons move from hole to hole. As electrons from the N-type material fill holes from the P-type material along the junction between the layers, they form a depletion region. In the depletion zone, the material becomes an insulator and there is no current flow. When a voltage source like a battery is added, positive charge is applied to the P-type material and negative charge is applied to the N-type material. This external charge repels the holes and electrons at each end and draws them towards the other charge. As the electrons move away from the negative charge they are expelled from the holes within the depletion region. When the free electrons are moving, current is able to flow through the diode. As this diagram shows, the diode can only carry current when the charge is in the right direction. If we were to flip our battery around in this diagram, no current would flow. If anything, the depletion region would increase. So how does an activated diode produce light?
Colors of LED
When the electrons move as a result of the diode being forward biased, they must drop from a higher orbital around the nucleus of the atom to a lower orbital. To do so, the atom must release energy in the form of photons. All diodes release photons but not all are efficient enough to release light. In metals, there is no band gap between conduction band and valence band so no visible light is emitted. For semiconductor materials, the band gap is larger, but varies depending on the materials used and in turn, this determines the color of emitted light.
Colors of LED cont'd
Here are some common semiconductor materials used to produce different colored LEDs. The most common LEDs are made of Aluminum Gallium Indium Phosphide which creates High Brightness orange-red, orange, yellow, and green LEDs and Indium Gallium Nitride which creates blue-green and blue LEDs.
Controlling LEDs
Because different colored LEDs are made of different materials, they all have different trip points to when the LED "turns on". A typical red LED may require a 1.7V at 20mA, while a blue LED will require a 3.6 volts at 20mA. The brightness of each LED will waver if the current flowing into the LED wavers. For this reason, the drive circuitry for LEDs must be controllable and stable. This is the electrical symbol for an LED. A simple LED circuit contains a voltage source and a tuned resistor. The value of the resistor affects the current flowing into the diode. However, one of the key advantages of LEDs is it's long lifetime. That's only true, though, when the LED is operated within the manufacturers recommended current rating. Delivering proper power to an LED system is crucial to maintaining correct light levels and life expectancy of the LEDs. Therefore, more complex drive circuits are typically used.
HB LEDs vs SStandard LEDs
The difference between standard LEDs and this new class of high-brightness LEDs is the intensity of the light that can be produced. Light intensity, or luminosity, can be measured in candelas and lumens. The output of a single candle is approximately 1 candela which is equivalent to 12.57 lumens. A standard LED generates as much light as 1 to 3 candles. A single high brightness LED, though, can generate as much light as 4 or more candles. In general, the brighter the LED, the more current it takes. As such the brighter categories of LEDs also typically correspond to higher currents.
High Brightness LEDs vs High Power LEDs
However, we must be careful when describing high brightness versus high power LEDs as they are sometimes confused. Technically, high power LEDs are LEDs that take over 1 Watt to operate. High brightness LEDs are categorized by the intensity of light. In other words, a high-power LED is typically a subset of high-brightness LEDs as they generate over 50 lumens of light….but a high-brightness LED is not necessarily a high-power LED as it can take less than a watt to power. The challenge is that both terms are used interchangeably in industry.
HB LED Applications
HB LEDs are used in many different applications. Looking at this chart, you can see that general signage applications are going to almost triple over the next few years. LEDs are quickly replacing regular light bulbs in large banners that can be seen everywhere from Times Square to sports arenas. In the past, these large displays were made out of several hundred individual light bulbs, each one using a separate color filter to get just the right shade of color. However, using regular light bulbs have many limitations. For example, as we have seen regular light bulbs are power hungry and have very limited life spans. Not only is it difficult to replace a light bulb in a 30 foot banner, it becomes costly as well. To maximize the advertisement's appeal, it's also better to be able to implement moving and changing images in the same space. Using fixed light bulbs with fixed color filters means only a single display can be generated. HB LEDs, on the other hand, can supplant the traditional light bulb in these applications while also providing lower power, lower system costs, longer life spans, and more design flexibility. The challenge then becomes using the LED technology that exists today to create all the different colors needed to produce these banners.
Covering the Color Needs
Remember the chromaticity diagram introduced in the previous slide. Imagine that your company wants to create a banner with your company logo on it using HB LEDs. Your company logo is probably made of certain colors that have to be accurate. Can you imagine a Coca Cola sign with the wrong shade of red? Let's say the colors needed to be displayed cover these areas in the diagram. It will need these specific shades of green, blue, and red. Remember from the previous slide the interesting property regarding the chromaticity diagram where all the colors along the line between two points in the diagram can be created from a mixture of those two color points. Well, if we have three LEDs a red LED, blue LED and green LED, then all the colors within this triangle can be mixed to create all the colors required by our company. But what if the sign also needed this shade of yellow? How could we compensate for the added requirement since it lies outside the gamut of our 3 LEDs? Well, we can add another yellow-green LED so that the yellow now fits within the gamut.
Color Mixing
By mixing 3 or 4 HB LEDs together, we can produce a wide range of colors. The act of combining individually colored LEDs to create a spectrum of colors is called color mixing. The technical challenge with color mixing is that individual LEDs need to be tuned to get the right amount of each component. By adjusting the dimming of a certain color in the LED cluster, a completely new color is created. Dimming can be implemented in the LED drive circuit with the addition of a Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM) which varies the duty cycle of the current flow. The lower the duty cycle, the more dim an LED appears to be. Another way to think of it is when an LED is on full-brightness, there is a DC current flowing through the diode. However if the LED is "half on", that means the forward current is operating at a 50% duty cycle. So even though there are many benefits for using High Brightness LEDs in signs, there are a few design challenges that must be overcome.
This concludes the introduction to HB LED and color science course. To recap some of the main points from this course: Colorimetry is the science of representing colors as numerical values; The tristimulus values X, Y, and Z are a representation of a color's luminance and chromaticity; The CIE 1931 Chromaticity Diagram is a two-dimensional representation of all the colors visible to the average human; LEDs are simply diodes incased in plastic that emit photons; Different materials used to create different diodes emit different colors; High Brightness LEDs are simply LEDs that can produce more luminance HB LEDs are quickly replacing incandescent, fluorescent, and halogen lights in applications ranging from architectural lighting, general signage applications, and LCD backlights.

Since people are becoming more and more aware of the processes behind the production of certain foods, it is important that they also receive information about alternative sources of their favorite fruits, veggies and more; in this case, the Biopark campaign hones in on vegetables.
The Biopark campaign focuses on relatively shocking images of these veggies taking drugs, which highlight the tag line, "Not all veggies are clean veggies." It then encourages people to buy bio produce from Biopark. The tomatoes starring in the Biopark campaign are seen shooting up while carrots are smoking up.
The Biopark campaign was conceived and executed by Jandl, an ad agency based in Bratislava, Slovakia. Art directed by Matus Nemcik with creative direction by Pavel Fuksa, the Biopark campaign was hilariously illustrated by Noper with copywriting by Adam Rovny.

Many slang terms, often considered offensive, exist for police officers. These terms are rarely used by the police themselves and instead are used by criminals, prisoners or even by the general public.
Police services also have their own internal slang and jargon; some of it relatively widespread geographically and some very localized.

"I roast asparagus all the time but this definitely ramps up the flavor a whole bunch. This seemes to be one of those recipes where the sum is greater than its parts. I had fresh oregano that I needed to use up and went a little heavy on the red pepper (cause we love heat) and it was excellent. Thanks for posting!"
"This was easy and delish. I used sweet baby rays, 1 onion, 1 green pepper, 2 jalepenos, seasoning the chicken first with my own spice mix (8oz seems too high, doesn't it?). Oh, and no liquid smoke as I can't stand the flavor. Thanks for posting."
"Easy and so good. I used gorogonzola (but about half as much as that's all I had on hand). Mine ended up nice and spicy with additional cayenne and aleppo peppers. I also added about a cup of fresh broccoli to use it up and make me fell healthier! Thanks for posting!"
"Such a nice change of pace from our regular fare. I added sirachia sauce to give it a little heat and backed down the milk to one can/no added water. I'm sure it's even more rich and delish with 2 cans but only had one on hand! DH and I both sopped it up. serving it over Trader Joes jasmine rice made it a pretty quick weeknite meal.Thanks so m..."
"I loved it. The bold spices of the chicken counter-balanced with the creamy goodness of the sauce. Thanks, sassafrasNC. (Will admit that I was a little heavy handed with some extra garlic - overpowering immediatley on making the sauce but mellowed overnight)."
"I loved cooking it this way. Thanks for the recipe. I ending up making more of a melt than just grilled cheese (had turkey and havarti and tomatoes and jalepenos and mustard). But so much more convenient when making more than one sandwich. I would have never thought about it. Delish. -Thanks again!"
"This was a winner for us. We added 2 cans of tomatoes and a little more rice and turkey rather than beef. We actually made two smaller casseroles and put one in the freezer - only to defrost it within the week as we were craving it again! Thanks Chelle."
"Everything in life should be this easy (and delicious)! I loved the flavor of the sauce and the onion added a nice dimension. I also followed a tip from another reviewer and added diced green chilis at the end. It seemed like such a nice twist (to something I eat too much of...the dull chicken breast). THANKS, Kree!"

Imprisoned Chicago Detective Will Testify in Wrongful Convictions Case
Posted: December 4, 2012 4:45 pm
Former Chicago Police commander, Jon Burge, will testify at the civil trial of Alton Logan, who spent 26 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit. Logan alleges that Burge and other officers concealed evidence that could have exonerated him. Burge was fired in 1993 for his role in the torture and beating of criminal suspects, a number of whom falsely confessed and were wrongfully convicted. In 2010, he was convicted of perjury, and he is currently serving a four and a half year sentence in federal prison. He will appear as a witness at Logan's trial via videoconference.

SP 2499 Art of DiscernmentDiploma
in the Art of Spiritual Direction Required Texts Note: Remember that the courses move along at a rapid clip in January. It is crucial to read these materials prior to the January term. The annotations suggest ways to help you relate the reading to class, and indicate where it is not necessary to read the entire book. Farnham, Suzanne, et. al. Listening Hearts: Discerning Call in Community. Revised Edition. Harrisburg, PA: Morehouse, 1991. This book serves two purposes: (1) a reflective and meditative introduction to the general notion of discernment, suitable for group study in a church setting. Read the main body of the book in the style of spiritual reading, slowly chewing and pondering. (2) Appendices 1 and 2 will guide our work with Clearness Committees (along with a short article by Parker Palmer that will be given out in class). Skim these pages. Ignatius of Loyola, Spiritual Exercises and Selected Works, ed. George E. Ganss. Classics of Western Spirituality. New York: Paulist Press, 1991. Before January, read the Autobiography, pp. 65-120. Pay special attention to what and how Ignatius discovered what God desired of him. Highlight the notable examples in the margins or list separately (put a paragraph # if you use this method so that you can find the place in the text). What is your reaction to this list? What surprised you? What questions does it evoke? Please bring this volume with you to the January session, as we will use portions of the Spiritual Exercises in class. Johnson, Luke. Scripture and Discernment: Decision-Making in the Church. Nashville: Abingdon, 1996. You might begin with Chapter 6. Then circle back and see how Johnson gets there through his theological commitments and biblical exegesis. After reading, think through your biblical understandings of discernment, aware that these will vary among ecclesial communities and among individual discerners. As a spiritual director, you need to be self conscious of your own assumptions about the role of scripture in discernment. McDermott, Gerald R. Seeing God: Twelve Reliable Signs of True Spirituality. Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 1995. An introduction to Jonathan Edwards' Religious Affections by an evangelical scholar. Take a recent spiritual experience (however defined) of your own or of one of your directee's, and see how these "reliable and unreliable signs" (be careful about these terms!) help you assess this religious experience. Mc Kinney, Mary Benet. Sharing Wisdom: A Process for Group Decision Making. Allen, TX: Thomas Moore, 1996. This book demonstrates how a group can become a discerning community. How will you have to adapt the theological perspective, examples and exercises for your situation? If you don't have time to read the entire book, concentrate on the Introduction and Chapters 2,4,5,6. (Charles Olsen's Transforming Church Boards is the Reformed analogue of McKinney; see recommended reading). Smith, Gordon T. Listening to God in Times of Choice: The Art of Discerning God's Will. Downers Grove, InterVarsity Press, 1997. A sound general treatment of discernment, again by an evangelical author. Recommended Reading Farnham, Suzanne, et. al. Grounded in God: Listening Hearts Discernment for Group Deliberations. Harrisburg: Morehouse, 1996. Lonsdale, David. Listening to the Music of the Spirit: The Art of Discernment. Notre Dame, IN: Ave Maria Press, 1992. A Jesuit comments on Ignatian discernment. Olsen, Charles. Transforming Church Boards into Communities of Spiritual Leaders. Washing DC: Alban Institute, 1995. Wolff, Pierre. Discernment: the Art of Choosing Well. Ligouri, MO: Triumph Books, 1993. This small volume offers alternative vocabulary useful for the unchurched or for those allergic to religious language. |

Monster Hunters come in all shapes and sizes, as well as styles. In the Cosplay of the Week, we're going to take a look at one of the more popular sets of armor to come out of the Monster Hunter series. Let's give a warm welcome to Ashe Kai and her Kirin Armor set!
This week's Cosplay of the Week features a classic character in the Final Fantasy series' recent history. Don't mistake this mighty viera for some girl in a bunny costume (although that's what she looks like). It's Fran, from Final Fantasy 12.
Here's a bizarre random act of violence.
Welcome to the Cosplay of the Week, helping you get over Hump Day by providing you with pictures of awesome cosplayers in their equally-awesome outfits. This way, you can look upon them and say, "Hmm. If they can make cool costumes like this, surely I can make it through the next couple of days." Don't worry, friends. The weekend is almost here, thanks to Regina, from the Dino Crisis series.
Cosplay girls are a video game nerd's dream come true. Have trouble talking to women because you spend twelve hours a day trying to beat Fire Emblem: Awakening on lunatic difficulty? Fear no more! You'll surely have a few things in common with these beautiful cosplay girls who dress up as some of video games' most legendary and tantalizing characters.
What most people don't know is cosplayers spend weeks creating costumes from
Hump Day is upon us and here to help us make it to the weekend is Jessica Sherawat, from Resident Evil: Revelations. Let's jump into the Cosplay of the Day and check out her very unique outfit.
Today's Cosplay of the Day features a character we've kinda grown up with over the course of a few years. You may remember her as a child in Resident Evil 2, but she's kicking ass and taking names as an adult in Resident Evil 6! Say hello to Sherry Birkin, from the Resident Evil series.
Tuesday is upon us and the week is revving up. In order to help us get through it, let's call upon the guidance of one of gaming's unsung big sisters, Cordelia Darling from Lollipop Chainsaw.
To kick off our week in style, we've got a new character from the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. Let's give a warm, Cosplay of the Day welcome to Quiet, the sniper!
Vanillaware's Odin Sphere was a game with great character designs that stand out when compared with a lot of other designs found in different titles. One particular character, Velvet, was memorable because of her great look and unique weaponry. Let's check her out in today's Cosplay of the Day.
We've got a little something different for you today, folks. As you know, we love alternative looks for some of our favorite characters. So today we've got a smexy version of that classic monarch, Nintendo's Princess Peach.

Other Pets at See Spot Rescued
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Elton John, a Jersey City Beagle/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Beagle/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in Jersey City, or seeking a Beagle/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) dog from a breeder in Jersey City.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Jersey City 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 Jersey City 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 Beagle/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) breeders who help with Beagle/Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Jersey City paves the way for another one to be saved.

Hi - My 27 yr old boiler is done. Need to get a new oil-fired hot water boiler. It is feeding a superstor water heater - and forced hot water combo baseboard and radiators for about 2200 sqft. Recommendations on brands? Energy company quoted me Burnham MPOIQ-115 Cast Iron with Beckett NX Burner. Is that a good model? Better brands or models? Things I should look for. Not afraid to put a few extra dollars in something that hopefully will last for decades. Any advice would be very much appreciated?

I'm germinating out a few seeds of a hybrid Salvia I got in from Robin. It looks like I am getting 100% germination from 3 seeds as I did with S. indica. I'm excited to see what develops in these plants. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Joseph, Treat this like indica. This is a real beauty, nobody knows for sure what it is! Seeds from Geoff Genge in New Zealand. Now he got these from Alaska!!!! Supposed to be a hybrid of flava x hians........I find this hard to believe!!! To my amateur eye, I see instantly that flava is involved......but hians??? No! Also S. bulleyana could be involved. Salvia 'Gloomy', with odd brown flowers is obviously related.....worth growing for the beautiful lime-green foliage. Again, will flower 2nd year from seed, not so fussy about drainage. Robin. |

The Ducks need Dominic Artis back. The Oregon men's basketball team knows it, fans know it and other teams know it. The Ducks have absolutely no scoring threat from the point guard position, illustrated again in Thursday's loss to Colorado.
With Artis in the lineup for six Pac-12 games, Oregon was scoring 72.3 points per game. Without Artis and with Johnathan Loyd starting in his place, UO is scoring 58.5 points per game. Artis' 10.2 points per contest have gone entirely un-replaced, and the Ducks' fill-ins at the point guard spot aren't producing.
"Obviously D.A. is a big part of our game, but we can't use that as an excuse," senior forward E.J. Singler said.
Loyd and Willie Moore again shared the point position against Colorado with Loyd notching 32 minutes while Moore played eight. Between the two of them, only two points were scored, and they weren't from the starter. Loyd was 0-for-7 from the field, and Moore knocked down one of his two shots. During the losing skid, opposing teams have often times been leaving Loyd open, and the diminutive speedster has done nothing to change opponents' strategies. All the shots he took against the Buffaloes were easy looks, and none of them went through the hoop. His poor shooting has virtually created an offensive situation in which five defenders only have to cover four players.
Beyond the lack of points from the one guard, the rest of the team's scoring has suffered immensely without Artis' distribution abilities. In the Ducks' loss to Stanford, no starter achieved his scoring average. Against California, only three players made their scoring marks. Versus Colorado, only two did it — Singler and Emory.
"D.A. spreads the floor; you got to stay on him," head coach Dana Altman said. "With our inability to hit perimeter shots, not only by Johnny and Willie but by other players, it makes it very tough to drive to the basket or throw the ball inside."
Loyd shot two airballs from beyond the arc but played well on defense, notching three steals and one block (his fourth of the season). Moore had one steal but failed to defend (especially on closeouts) as well as Loyd.
After Loyd and Moore there are no other true point guards on Oregon's roster. E.J. Singler had been discussed as an emergency option, and Fred Richardson III is more of a shooting guard.
"We don't have anybody else," Altman said. "Those two guys (Loyd and Moore) are going to have to handle it and do a good job with it."
When asked if he knew when Artis might return to play from an undisclosed foot injury, Altman said, "I do not. Soon as the doctors clear him we will play him."

Arguably the most important Blues artist of all time, legendary singer, songwriter and guitarist Muddy Waters was born today in 1915!
McKinley Morganfield got his stage name from playing in a muddy creek as a boy in Mississippi. Waters grew up immersed in Delta Southern Blues which he famously brought to Chicago after World War II in 1943.
The guitarist came to be known as "The Father of Chicago Blues" and recorded such incomparable classics as "I Can't Be Satisfied," "Hoochie Coochie Man" and "Got My Mojo Workin."
The list of those influenced by Waters is virtually endless. Eric Clapton, Chuck Berry, Bill Wyman, Led Zeppelin, B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Winter, as well as a little known British band who named themselves after his 1950 hit "Rollin' Stone" all cite Waters as a major influence.
Today, Waters is widely considered one of the defining figures of the Rock & Roll genre. His legacy continues to inspire artists everywhere and he still has legions of fans across the globe.
The legend passed away on April 30, 1983. He would have been 99 this year.

PRACTICE Only. No Challenge. Walk More Then You Play. But Hey At least This Town Has A Course.

Beginner, nice park, descent facilities, lacks challenge.
by HouseMusicOwnsU on Jul 6, 2010 at 2:29pm
This course sucks. They built this course with other park users in the way to the point that you are afraid to throw. the walk between 4-5 is idiotic. plus it's only six holes, do you really want to play this crappy course three times through to make a round.
by tommyguner03 on Jun 9, 2010 at 11:00pm
course is not what i expected...map is out of wack and confusing ...avoid this course
by kenny7sccr on Oct 25, 2009 at 4:57pm
Definately a practice course. Very short holes and only a 6 hole course. All of the holes I did in 2 shots. From hole 3 to 4 you have to walk quite far on the bike path to the next shot. Very nice park though.

"We have challenged the classic conference model with its one-way delivery from speaker to delegate, by staging a new form of interactive discussion on focused topics. This first IBC Booster event has been an experiment but a successful one; we've been able to gauge the state of the industry and it is clear there are number of recurring issues faced by players of all sizes. It is only through this level of interaction that we'll be able to work together better to come up with solutions that benefit everyone, including, ultimately the end users."
Professor David Crawford, Head of Business Partnerships, University of Essex
IBC London Technology Booster Chairman
Conference Overview
The inaugural IBC London based conference covering today's two hottest technology topics - Connected Content and The Cloud took place on 25 and 26 June. The event was unashamedly technical in its approach, after being launched to meet the demands of those unable to attend our Amsterdam based event. It was also a perfect opportunity for regular IBC delegates as a "booster" in the run up to IBC2013.
Day One looked at the Cloud and its implications. We examined the different models of cloud computing, how to handle large datasets in the Cloud and looked at the opportunities the Cloud represents for broadcast.
Day Two examined Connected Content and covered topics relevant to the opportunities provided by new convergent media platforms, effectively managing digital assets, and the future role of broadcast in a multicast world.
To ensure that delegates gained maximum knowledge and felt fully engaged, IBC broke down the invisible wall that so often exists between speakers and the delegates to ensure that all of the sessions are fully interactive and to create rich dialogue between all parties.
The IBC team designed this event to engage the delegates in a unique learning experience. Interactive sessions such as the 'Quick Fire Questions Clinic' and the 'Looking Under the Hood' case studies ensured that delegates rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in. Pre-event interaction, facilitated networking and lively facilitation ensured a dynamic atmosphere.
Unique Event Format
The IBC team designed this event to engage delegates in a unique learning experience.
- IBC hosted a live webcast, filmed from the London Stock Exchange as a taster for the content and discussion points that woud be covered in the event itself. The webcast is available on-demand to view.
registered delegates could get involved with the IBC Technology Booster LinkedIn Group to interact and engage with other delegates and the event's speakers. In this group, delegates could, and still can:
- join in with discussion threads about key industry topics – raise challenges and collaborate with others to help provide solutions - - submit session-specific questions in order to help the speakers tailor their contributions to get the answers delegates needed
delegates could join in with the IBC Technology Booster LinkedIn, Twitter IBCBooster and Facebook Group to:
- view and share links to key industry articles and videos
- read interviews from speakers
- interact and network with other delegates
- submit questions to speakers
- find out key event information
At the Event
A range of interactive sessions during the two day programme ensured that delegates rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in. Plus pre-event interaction, facilitated networking and lively facilitation ensured delegates experienced an exciting and dynamic atmosphere.
View the full session descriptions and the full programme
Facilitated Networking
To help delegates establish new partnerships, build stronger peer relationships and start potential new collaborative connections with major organisations, they had the opportunity to;
- get involved pre-event with the IBC London Technology Booster Linked-In Group where registered delegates and speakers were regularly interacting and collaborating
- relax and exchange business cards over a sandwich and a beer during dedicated networking drinks and lunch breaks
- meet with vendors and have face-to-face conversations during the exhibition viewing time
engage with approachable speakers from the industry's leading companies onsite who were ready to give advice and share knowledge during and between sessions
Keep involved post-event with the IBC London Technology Booster Linked-In Group where registered delegates and speakers can continue to be regularly interacting and collaborating.
- join in with discussion threads about key industry topics – ask vital questions, raise industry challenges and collaborate with others to help devise solutions -
join in and continue the discussions with the IBC London Technology Booster, Twitter IBCBooster and Facebook Groups
- view and share links to key industry articles and videos
- read interviews from speakers
- interact and network with other delegates
- find out future event information

Rosewill RSV-L4000 Rackmount Case
The front locking cover is the same on all of Rosewill's 4u rackmount cases. The front door provides security for the system so the system can't be shut down or rebooted.
The front door has an air filter across the entire surface that is removable for cleaning. The filter is dense enough to keep the dust out, but porous enough to let air flow through nearly unrestricted.
Here we get our first look with the door open. The RSV-L4000 has two 120mm fans in the front and an additional three 120mm fans in the middle of the case to keep the inner components cool. Behind each front fan are four 3.5" drive sleds. You need to remove the whole fan assembly to access the drives.
The Rosewill 4u chassis ship predrilled for rails, but they are NOT included in the package. Newegg lists a Rosewill 3-section rail kit that is adjustable for length and uses ball bearings for the slides. The kit is $39.99.
The back of the chassis looks like any other steel ATX case on the market. Two 80mm fans exhaust air from the system.
The PSU mount can rotate sides so the power supply can face either direction. Some PSUs have a large fan on one side, but the fan isn't always on the same side.
From the factory, the case ships with rubber feet on the bottom of the case. You'll take these off prior to putting the case in a rack, but the feet keep the case from scratching your desk during the system build.
The handles are a longer than what we find on Supermicro and other rackmount cases. We found a couple reports where the handles were an issue with doors on racks. Most racks are adjustable, so you can maneuver the rails back if needed, but most people wouldn't want to do that on a rack that is already populated with systems.

This relatively small frog—the most primitive frog species in the world—is named for it's big "tail" (it's actually not a tail at all, so let's take a cue from the San Francisco Chronicle and use the term "copulatory organ"). Despite having what seems like a master evolutionary development to ensure survival of a species, the coastal tailed frog has become a species of special concern, primarily due to habitat loss. They need cold water to procreate, and when a forest is heavily logged, the water temperatures can rise. So the return of the coastal tailed frog to our Garcia River Forest is a great indication that our sustainable forest management practices are returning this ecosystem to its original healthy state.

A second post here rather than piggyback on the white Euphorbia post. This is an plant I originally purchased as an unlabeled plant at Succulent Gardens Nursery near Moss Beach. Robin Stockwell wasn't around to ask the name for this, does anyone recognize it? TIA. |

Euphorbia fimbriata f. variegata (more often than not called Euphorbia mammillaris f. variegata). |
Thank you for the quick id on this, both of you. I had no idea this could/will get quite large if it matures, it looked as if it would stay dwarf to me when I bought them. I have probably not really given them perfect growing conditions, but they've survived their first two winters, and received no special soil amending to improve drainage. I suspect this isn't long term hardy with our winter cold and wet here in the SF Bay Area. I find myself intrigued by the genus, but have only used about a dozen species so far. I wish I knew of sources for the South African Medusa-head types I've seen out at the Ruth Bankcroft Garden. I've had good luck with lambii, dendroides, mauritanica, ammak variegata, rigida, myrsinites, Ascot Rainbow, Tasmanian Tiger, to name a few. If we tend towards dryer winters and hotter summers, Euphorbs may well make increasingly useful drought tolerant shrubs. Also, anyone else growing Kleinia nerifolia from the Canary Islands? Another Euphorbia look-alike that I really like the looks of, but relatively slow growing and much plumper and lusher growing here than photos of same in habitat. |

Forgot to say, I do not grow Senecio neriifolia, but can see how some Euphorbia would do well in your plantings, David. I, too, would like to find more Medusa-head plants for sale. |

Prism Sound Helps Engineer find Silver Lining
Prism Sound Helps Engineer find Silver Lining
San Francisco - May 12, 2008 - Anyone who has ever had a vehicle stolen understands how radio broadcast engineer Jay Rose felt when his truck was taken from a hotel parking lot in Las Vegas. But what made his experience so much worse is that not only did he lose his vehicle, he also lost a collection of tools and audio test equipment that had taken him more than 30 years to accumulate.
But it seems that even the blackest cloud has a silver lining because the loss all his equipment gave Rose the opportunity to re-evaluate what he needed, particularly in terms of audio test equipment. He was effectively starting again, so he used the opportunity to look at what was new on the market. After researching possibilities, Rose decided on a Prism Sound Dscope III.
During his career, Rose has worked for radio stations including KMEL-FM, KIOI-FM, KYLD-FM, KKSF-FM and KGO-TV in San Francisco, and KKBT-FM in Los Angeles. In 1999, Rose founded his present company, Jay Rose Broadcast Engineering.
Rose's projects vary from station to station, but to verify and prove problems, he now relies on the Prism Sound Dscope Series III.
