Marshall Islands Facts Flag
Tropical islands in the western Pacific, the Marshall Islands form two parallel island groups—the Ratak (sunrise) Chain and Ralik (sunset) Chain. These atolls, reefs, and islets include Kwajalein, test range for U.S. missiles and home to the world's largest lagoon, and Enewetak, where the United States exploded the first hydrogen bomb in 1952. Bikini Atoll is still uninhabitable because of past nuclear tests. In 1986 the former trust territory became self-governing in free association with the United States, which is responsible for its defense and foreign affairs.

My hometown of Rochester, NY, is a golfing town. Despite its smaller size, Rochester has hosted the 1995 Ryder Cup, the 2003 and 2013 PGA Championships, the Senior PGA Championship, and the annual Wegmans LPGA event, and even the Xerox Classic. With a number of world class courses, such as Oak Hill and Locust Hill, residents squeeze in as much playing time as they can, given the harsh winters, and are thrilled to welcome professionals with regularity.
To help you enjoy the PGA Championship experience taking place this weekend, I've tried to compile a list of Rochester and golfing related apps and websites. But first, I'll give you more details about the town hosting this year's event.

Creative director at Google, Alexander Chen, got creative recently and created a video of himself playing the viola on Google Glass. The Google figure head then took the footage and edited it externally from Glass. The result of all of these spliced clips is like a miniature orchestra.
What's so utterly charming about the video is that, as the camera viewpoint is from his own point of view, you can see snippets of a young baby waddling through the sitting room and a dog sprawled out on the sofa playing with a ball. The music itself is also beautiful and calming. This video gives us a glimpse of the amazing things that one can capture using such new and ground-breaking technology.

Meanwhile in my head I'm undergoing open-heart surgery.
Week day mornings—the added dash of salt onto the wound of existence. And as the weather continues to fluctuate from placid blue skies to grey confusion, I can't help but find myself nostalgic for hazy summer days, hoping for the sound of waves rolling in and the feeling of sweating in the sun. But this reprieve from the bitter chill of winter is a delight.
There's just some music that luxuriates best when in the right temperature—Burial, for example, exists purely in breaths of cold air building in your chest, whereas Eluvium is born from a mid-summer's morning dew. But during this strange and painfully melancholy month that is August, I tend to gravitate towards the sonic pleasures that really make me long for a place with no name. So here's a sprinkling of what I love best.
—Mint Green, Andrew Shapiro
—Ballad of Distances, Part 2, Stars of the Lid
—String Quartet, No. 2: III, The Balanescu Quartet
—I'm Waiting Here, David Lunch and Lykke Li
—Everything to Come, Eluvium

Chelsea if you read Church history you would find hundreds of examples of Catholicism being imposed on other religions by Monarchs and vice versa.
Queen Isabella of Castile, King Ferdinand of Aragon, the monarchies of Portugal, the Holy Roman States, Russia.St Bartholemews Day Massacre in France against the Hugenuots, the conversion of Moslems and Orthodox in the Balkans in 1940, 1994 and today the forcible conversion of Christians to Moslems in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Western Africa by the Taliban, when and where they are in control.
In the Medievil Church the Jews were given 3 choices throughout Chrismdom all were Monarchies, convert, stay and face crippling fines or die a heretic death (that being burnt alive). You cant swing a chasible in history without hitting forced conversion, pograms or massacres in the name of the church by those doing Gods work.
I see what you've written, but I don't believe it conforms to reality in regard to the actions of Catholic Monarchs. If you can provide credible evidence backing your claim, however, I'm all ears (so to speak).

Upon a quick search of Naples - sailboat type waterfront properties makes Ft Lauderdale seem low price. Marco Island seems to have a bit more wider range.However it appears a little isolated(from the google maps-never been there). We would be renting at first due to the continued crashing of the high end market.
thanks for your help!
I have a friend that's the Episcopal priest on Marco. We visited once. From my understanding, it's a snowbird community, so kind of empty in the summer. The population triples to 45k in the winter. Housing is definitely more reasonable (than California for sure, probably than Miami). Upscale, good schools through middle school, then they're bused to Lely High School about thirty minutes off the island. His daughter is doing fine there and has a great group of friends. They're trying to get a charter high school built on Marco.
Isolated? Maybe, but 45 minutes to Naples. Close to the Everglades, and tons of isolated islands to cruise around.
That's all I know. Definitely an outsiders opinion. I try to imagine moving somewhere warmer than the Mississippi coast. Florida is expensive, but nothing like CA!
BTW here's a great demographic tool:

7 Questions You Should Never Ask Your Man
4. Really? You're already done? This may strike his ego a bit harshly. We all know that most men tend to enjoy themselves then fall asleep a bit faster than we women would like. But pointing out this fact doesn't help matters either. Instead, do what you can to prolong the moment and tell him to hold off on coming for a little while. This lets him know that you're enjoying it way too much to let it end.
5. Are you sure you need that second helping? Believe it or not, men can be just as concerned about their weight and sex-appeal as women. They may not make a huge deal out of it the same way that women do, but trust me, they notice their weight gain. They don't need you to point out their love handles or beer gut to them, any more than we need them to point at all of our flaws. If you're uncomfortable with their weight gain, suggest calorie-burning exercises that you can do together.
6. What's up with your hair? Again, men are sensitive about their looks, including their hair. So if they've undergone a bad haircut, or their receding hair line has become more visible, as of late, don't point this out. Try to suggest other things they can do to offset this new look that may or may not be there to stay. A change in facial hair or better clothing could help offset the new look you aren't so fond of, while letting your man know that you're still attracted to his other features. What To Do When Attraction Fades
7. Are you ever going to put a ring on it, or what? Chances are, you already know the answer to this question. A man who plans to propose drops hints in everyday conversation, such as discussing plans to move in together, plans to buy a house together, plans to meet family and friends for get-togethers, plans for future vacations, and so on. If none of this has happened throughout your relationship (this typically happens in relationships lasting longer than a few months) then he probably doesn't feel that your relationship has a real future. Not to mention, the last thing you want is a proposal based off of the pressure he feels from your insistence.
If he never talks about a future that includes you, or never shows any signs that he is preparing to pop the big question, such as dropping hints about not spending as much so that he can save money for your future, then you know what needs to be done. 6 Money Matters To Discuss Before Marriage

New systems help you manage your social media
If your agency's marketing mix has a significant social media component—or if you know it should—you know it can be time-consuming to manage. Until recently, third-party systems to help you analyze and manage social media were priced for larger enterprises.
But several feature-rich new platforms have moved into the social media management space, and they're priced to appeal to smaller businesses. Here are several choices, listed alphabetically, that are worth considering:
- Crowdbooster: This platform is limited to Facebook and Twitter, and it places emphasis on its analytics feature, which allows you to see results in addition to basic metrics such as likes, reposts and retweets. Crowdbooster shows every post and tweet in a sortable table, and it lets you schedule—and optimize timing of—your posts in advance.
- Everypost: The unique feature of this platform is that it's mobile-based, so you can manage your social media from your smartphone or tablet. It comes in iOS and Android versions and supports Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Tumblr. Everypost also plays nice with Dropbox and email programs. Free trail available.
- Oktopost: Developed specifically for business-to-business use, this platform supports campaign management, thought leadership, post scheduling, lead generation, social media monitoring and brand awareness development. It also has a performance-based content recommendation tool. Works with Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and LinkedIn.
- Post Planner: This Facebook-only platform promotes engagement. It provides content trending, analytics in real time, post scheduling and fan targeting based on demographic and location data. Free trial available.
- Rignite: This platform lets you manage social media, perform analytics, schedule posts and create campaigns. To drive traffic, you can offer discount coupons and promotional codes, and it helps you monitor all your social media for mentions of your company name, products or user-defined keywords.
Whether you're just getting your feet wet with social media, or you've been at it for years, give these new alternatives a try. Most subscriptions cost $9 to $29 a month. You could save some money, gain some time, and most importantly, boost your social media presence.

Welcome to Southie, a Boston neighborhood where a night on the town means a few rounds of bingo, where this month's paycheck covers last month's bills, and where Margie Walsh has just been let go from yet another job. Facing eviction and scrambling to catch a break, Margie thinks an old fling that's made it out of Southie might be her ticket to a fresh new start.

America is a nation of values, founded on the idea that all people are created equal and that all people have rights, no matter what they look like or where they came from. The way we enforce our immigration laws should reflect our commitment to these values. Both our laws and our enforcement policies should be grounded in civil and human rights and ensure due process, equal treatment, and fairness.

AILA Press Statements
Resources and Talking Points
Additional Resources on: Courts, Detention, Border, Worksite Enforcement, and Secure Communities & Detainers
On March 13, 2014 President Obama called for a review of the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) enforcement practices. AILA urges DHS to implement meaningful administrative reforms while Congress works to pass a reform bill.
Enforcement is Happening The facts show that enforcement is happening, and has been happening, at record rates. Immigration enforcement efforts of the past decade, under both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, have been aggressive. At the same time that the number of individuals crossing our borders has sharply declined and net migration is near zero, the number of removals, detentions, and criminal prosecutions for immigration offenses have broken records, as has federal funding for these programs.
Debate about interior enforcement has always been contentious. But any common sense broad reform will fundamentally change the nature of that debate. Reform that includes these three elements - a smart and balanced E-Verify system, a legalization plan for the undocumented, and a more robust legal immigration system for the future - will dramatically reduce the number of those living in the United States without status, making a large build-up of interior enforcement an unnecessary and costly investment.
The House of Representatives - The SAFE Act (AILA Doc. No. 13060654.)
In June 2013, the Judiciary Committee in the House of Representatives successfully voted H.R. 2278, the "Strengthen and Fortify Enforcement Act" (the SAFE Act), out of committee on a party line 20-15 vote. (AILA Doc. No. 13060654.) AILA strongly opposes the SAFE Act because it would criminalize undocumented immigrants, give states and cities authority to enact their own immigration laws, inflate an already costly detention and enforcement apparatus, and perpetuate the failures of the existing system. As bipartisan reform moves forward in both chambers, AILA urges Congress to enact the best possible law that meets our nation's needs, protects civil and human rights, and ensures due process.
The Senate - The "Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act" (AILA Doc. No. 13041760.)
In June 2013, the Senate passed S.744, a comprehensive immigration reform bill that provides a common sense pathway to citizenship for the undocumented with strict provisions on crimes, inadmissibility, deportability, and national security. AILA opposed the inclusion of many of these provisions because they will have harsh consequences and will exclude deserving individuals from legalization or from ever obtaining legal status. Any further tightening of these exclusion grounds would greatly erode due process and undermine the bill's purpose of bringing families and individuals out of the shadows.
The Senate immigration bill also establishes stringent criteria that will bar many individuals from obtaining Registered Provisional Immigrant (RPI) status or a green card. To balance these requirements, S.744 grants limited authority to immigration judges and agency officials to consider the facts in certain cases where a person does not automatically qualify and to exercise discretion if the person can show strong equities in his or her favor.
In spring 2014, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will hit the two million mark in removals of the undocumented—the highest removal rate of any administration. This has prompted some immigration advocates to proclaim him the "deporter-in-chief" for pursuing enforcement so aggressively. At the same time, some claim that President Obama is deporting fewer people and is failing to enforce immigration law. AILA provides resources to understand the story behind the numbers.
A fair and functioning court system is essential to ensuring due process. Currently, the immigration court system is plagued by a lack of funding.
This year, the U.S. government will detain 34,000 immigrants per day at a cost of over $2 billion to American taxpayers -a figure not based on demonstrated need. ICE has all the tools it needs to safely release thousands of individuals it chooses to hold in detention.
In recent years increasing amounts of money have been poured into the protection of the border region--the necessity of these escalating costs is questionable, especially when considering that apprehensions at the border are at their lowest in 40 years.
Worksite Enforcement & E-Verify
Currently there are an estimated 8 million undocumented workers in the country --if these undocumented workers suddenly leave the workforce, our country would face significant, possibly devastating, economic consequences
Secure Communities and Detainers
Key to this administration's strategy has been programs that partner with local law enforcement (such as Secure Communities) and the civil immigration detainers on which they rely. These programs have come under attack due to their negative impact on community policing, susceptibility to racial profiling, and their indiscriminate approach to immigration enforcement.

On facebook? Please join our campaign to get the top pop culture book-loving maven of our time to PROMOTE LIBRARIES by joining "Oprah, Libraries Need You!".
The group, created as the result of a dream that Marilyn Johnson (author of 'This Book is Overdue') had in which she spoke to Oprah about libraries and Oprah agreed that they needed support (vivid dreaming MJ!) is ONE WEEK OLD and already has close to 1,000 members.
Please add your name to the ranks and invite all your friends. It won't cost you a penny and who knows, maybe it'll result in an overwhelming wash of love and money from Oprah's coffers.
If you have a story about your library that will help to support the cause, please post it on the wall and keep posting. Don't be shy. Thank you!!
BOOKS ARE no exception to the meticulous re-creation of the 1960s advertising world in "Mad Men" - and a local librarian has been paying attention.
The paperback Betty Draper pored over in the bathtub while trying to soak away suspicions that Don's cheating. The book Sally reads to her grandpa Gene at bedtime. The Japanese cultural history tome that everyone in the agency is forced to read.
Billy Parrott, 41, manager of the New York Public Library's Battery Park City branch, has included these books and more in his "Mad Men Reading List."
From Nora Rawlinson at Early Word:
In about an hour, we'll learn which title will get the magic book club sticker, when Oprah's live show debuts on Chicago's WLS at 10 am. EDT. Many news outlets are already claiming that Oprah will pick the wild card, Freedom by Jonathan Franzen, based on a story, released mid-afternoon yesterday, by the AP, quoting three anonymous booksellers who have seen early copies of the stickered book. [UPDATE: yup she picked it]
The Melville House Publishing blog posted a story way back on Monday, based on "reliable sources" and followed with a post featuring the Freedom cover sporting an Oprah sticker. The L.A. Times is suspicious, however, that the rather blurry photo may be a result of photoshopping; see it next to the original cover on the left. What do you think — a poor photo shop job, a bad scan, or just a terrible photo?

I know this sounds like an off the wall topic but it is truly fascinating.
So I am watching the new BBC/Discovery episode of 'Life,' and don't get me wrong, I love nature shows. I am a self professed Shark Week Geek, yeah, I know that sharks don't evolve each year but I still watch it every year.
But I cannot get into this series like I did with its predecessor, 'Planet Earth.' It's not the visuals that I am disappointed with, I have 52 inches of 1080i HD real-estate.
It's the audio. Why is the States' version devoid of Sir David Attenborough --- again!??!
You know, I let the fact that 'Planet Earth' was commented by the Alien movies lady slip by, most likely because of all the eye candy this ground breaking series had to offer. But the second time around, it is going to take more than that for me to believe all the hype. Not only is the US version "dumbed down" but Oprah's narration is unimpressive and does the series no justice. Score one for the Brits.
As the saying goes, the sequel is never better than the original.
Betty White will guest-star on the season finale of The Middle. The four-time Emmy winner will play a school librarian who goes after a student over several overdue library books.
What? A librarian chasing down an overdue library book? What hijinx! Oh, one can only wonder where these writers get their ideas. We can only hope that zaniness and uncontrolled hilarity ensues.

The "Oprah effect" is national, so it's no surprise some local fans are sad to see the media mogul's show come to an end.
The Oprah Winfrey Show's last episode will air Sept. 9, 2011 to mark its 25th anniversary. Local fans have been featured on the show, like the ladies who work the cafeteria at North Laurel (MD) Elementary School.
"She's got really good topics," said Oprah makeover recipient Eisele Couch. "I try to pay attention to what she influences the viewers. She's just made women stronger in their field." But women aren't the only fans. Men in Delmarva (Delaware/Maryland/Virginia area) say Oprah has impacted them in a positive way, too.
"She introduced to me a lot of books," said Earl Thomas. "They're inspirational to me." Ellen Dunn of the Wicomico Public Library has seen high demand for selections from Oprah's Book Club...she makes sure to have her recommended titles available. Video from WBOC.

An equivalent differential backup for UNIX
Is there an equivalent of a differential backup for UNIX systems? For a differential to occur on a Windows system, the backup software relies on an archive bit being set when a file is modified but not being reset by the backup software as an incremental backup would behave.

Most commercial backup software products support differential backup on all platforms. It's based on modification times, which is a far more reliable way than the Windows archive bit. The problem with the archive bit is that it gets set or unset whenever ANYTHING backs up a file. That means that if you made your own NTBACKUP of your home directory, the archive bit is set. If your backup software uses the archive bit, it wouldn't back that file up that night. That's just wrong. Backup software should use mtime, not the archive bit.

Saudi oil minister, Ali Al-Naimi has said the kingdom is willing to supply markets with more crude if rising tensions between Russia and the West over Ukraine cause a shortage, Reuters has reported. "We are willing to supply any shortage which may arise," Al-Naimi said. "Wherever demand is needed, we and other OPEC members will supply," he said. The kingdom's current output is around 9.6 million barrels per day (bpd), while it has a capacity of 12.5 million bpd, Al-Naimi added.

Mythic Creative Director Paul Barnett likes to talk. And not just about his online RPG. "A game guide is actually there to corrupt your enjoyment of the game. It tells you the most efficient, straightforward and dull way to increase your numbers, and in no way tells you the wonder and joy of the game you're playing. And for most games, the wonder and joy is in getting there. In fact, in most of life, the joy is in getting to something."
There's more: "We now have people obsessed with getting to the endgame, not realizing that the greatness is in going on that journey. It's like Final Fantasy: you play one and it's basically random monster encounters... I'm a big proponent that if you can get people to engage their mind and give them things that give them wonder and awe and engage their imagination, you will have a better game than one which is perfect in its number crunching, but is soulless."

A Sanford woman was arrested Monday and accused of cruelty to a 3-year-old.
Cameron Ferris, 21, is accused in two separate instances of abuse.
Officers say when the 3-year-old soiled her clothes on Sunday, she hit her more than once on her lower back and caused bruises.
Officers said on the following day, Ferris pushed the child off of a mattress that was on the floor. The child nearly struck a fan with her head, according to the report.
Ferris was taken to the Seminole County Jail on child abuse charges.

- Sex: Female
Gabby's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Hello there! My name is Gabby and I'm a little bitty chihuahua girl who is looking for a new home. My foster Mom says I am a very good girl. I am told that I am cute as can be when I sit and give you my paw. I am crate and potty trained and love to play with toys too. Won't you come by to meet me at an adoption event? They're pretty nice here but I really want a family all of my own. I would love to go home with you. Love, Gabby
Interested in adopting? Please fill out our adoption application at www.OscarAnimalRescue.org

Other Pets at One Step Closer Animal Rescue (O.S.C.A.R.)
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Gabby, a Sparta Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Sparta, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Sparta.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Sparta 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 Sparta 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 Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Sparta paves the way for another one to be saved.

The cost of health care in the United States has exploded, placing high quality, accessible care outside the reach of too many of our citizens. Last year, 47 million Americans at some point went without health insurance. As a result, preventable and chronic illnesses increase across the board, often causing unnecessary emotional and physical pain, not to mention the resulting financial stress. Today, the average yearly premium for private insurance costs $12,106 for a family of four. Premiums have increased 7.7 percent since 2006 and have exceeded the rate of wage gains and the buying power of the dollar. At the outset, I think we can all agree that the current health care system is flawed and outdated. Almost 60 percent of Americans receive insurance through their jobs, primarily because of the advantages available to employers and employees under our nations tax code. But we must not allow those who dont have access to this benefit to fall through the cracks. We must find a way to make medical care more affordable for those who do not receive health insurance through their workplace and do not qualify for available public programs. This is why I have recently introduced three pieces of legislation to help reduce the number of uninsured Americans. H.R. 3515, the Health Insurance Tax Relief Act of 2007 and H.R. 3516, the Affordable Health Care for Americans Act are designed to greatly diminish the cost of private insurance by lessening the tax burden. My legislation would allow individuals a refundable tax credit for the purchase of private insurance and to take an above the line deduction for all health insurance premiums paid during the tax year. These provisions would provide accessibility to quality health care to tens of millions of Americans, including many whose income levels currently exempt them from any income tax payments Additionally, long-term care insurance has become a necessity as the American life expectancy increases. Unfortunately, the cost of this coverage is prohibitive to many Americans. The third piece of my health care legislation, H.R. 3517, the Long-Term Care Tax Reduction Act of 2007, would address these issues by allowing individuals to use their retirement plans to purchase long-term insurance using pre-tax dollars with no penalty. I am deeply concerned with finding ways to make health insurance affordable for all Americans. I will work vigorously with my colleagues in Washington to deliver common sense solutions like these that would increase access to care while minimizing the cost. Congressman John M. McHugh, R-Pierrepont Manor, represents the 23rd District of New York.

So Far So Good! Molly from Mountain CIty, TN– Verified Buyer Just received this in the mail the other day for our baby girl who will be getting this for Christmas; she will then be 6 months old. I have not fully assembled the product yet, but like a little kid I have pulled it all out of the box and am impressed with the material and the liner inside to protect the outside layer. |
Great quality, great prices and overall wonderful Anna Biason from 5395 Belmore Avenue, Montreal,Quebec, QC H4V 2C9– Verified Buyer The price of the bean bag and the way it has been shipped is fantastic. I have not put it together yet because it is a Chrtistmas Gift. The price was good. |
Love it! Valerie from Murfreesboro, TN– Verified Buyer We purchased this item for my 3 year old with autism as an alternative to a crash pad. It looks great, works great, and was much cheaper!! We've had it for almost a year now and it is holding up great! Would definitely recommend it! |
Kid favorite Shannon from San Jose, CA– Verified Buyer This is the go-to seat for our son and all of his friends when they come over. I can certainly attest to its durability after more than a year of 2-3 year olds sitting, jumping, bouncing, eating, crawling, etc etc all over it. It was a great purchase for our playroom! |
BIG BEAN BAGS!!! Steph from Indianapolis, IN– Verified Buyer I bought two of these for my boys for Christmas and they are just great! I didn't get the colors I wanted as it was close to Christmas, so I chose different colors and they turned out just fine! The boys love to sleep in them when they have friends over to stay the night! |
My kids love this! Kelly from Rochester, IL– Verified Buyer I put this bean bag sofa in our little nook in the playroom so that the kids can read their books or look at their iPads/iPods, etc. and they LOVE it! So very comfortable and the green color we bought livens up the place! |
Love it Kristin from Dickinson, ND– Verified Buyer I bought it for my 2 & 4 year olds birthdays and they love it! They both fit nicely on it and play and lay on it constantly. I even fit on it. I didn't have any problems putting the foam in, just be sure to give it a few days to puff up. |
grandson loves it sandra from boerne, TX– Verified Buyer My three year old grandson loves to read books and play his guitar on it. Mom and dad relax in front of the fire with it after he goes to bed. |
We're happy Vanessa from etobicoke, ON– Verified Buyer Bought this for my baby. I loves to climb it and we snuggle together to read books on it. It feels like it's very durable and will last a long time. |
great bean bag Caroline from Hillsboro, OR– Verified Buyer My daughter loves it. She always lying on it to read. it's great when she has friends over. Lots of room. |
About the Manufacturer
Jaxx was first launched as a way to utilize unused byproduct from local furniture manufacturers. After looking around to see what was missing in an oversaturated marketplace, it was decided that the best use for ECOFOAM would be as a stuffing for bean bags. Yep – high quality bean bags, hand-made in the USA. It's what Jaxx has been delivering since 2006. Available in a variety of fabrics from easy-to-clean micro-suede to crisp Cone denim, choose the style and size that suits you.Reference
Jr Bean Bag Sofa is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: 11641276, 11641277, 11641278, 11641279, 11641280, 11641353, 11641355

Mark Sanchez Talks about Playing without Nick Mangold
Posted by Erik Manassy on Sep 22, 2011 in News | 0 comments
Here is a video of the Mark Sanchez interview at his locker from yesterday after practice. Mark answers reporters questions on the Oakland Raiders, their defense, Mangold and the first west coast trip.
No Mangold, Can the Line Prevail?
What I like about Mark is that he's always talking up his players, in this case Colin Baxter, who will be starting at Center. Mark makes a very good point that Baxter already played 50 + snaps and the jitters are gone. He did a decent job and if they just need to work on snap count and little things, I think I'm feeling better about not having Mangold out there for now.
Mark spoke about how the offense is spoiled having Nick Mangold pointing out coverages etc, and so now having him in there puts more pressure on the starters. What bothers me about this situation is that the running game hasn't been the greatest, in fact, our rushing stats are near the bottom of the league. I think Baxter will do a good job, but that doesn't resolve the issue with our offense line in the first two games. Wayne Hunter has been a sieve at his position, and a majority of the QB Pressure has been coming through his hole.
What does Mark thing about Man Coverage and the Defense?
Mark talked up the Raiders Defense. I have to laugh when a reporter asks a player to evaluate their upcoming competition. Do you really think when asked how the defense is playing, Mark will say that they suck, or that they need work. Even if he feels he can shred their defense, he would never ever say that, so I think this is a wasted question.

Sliced into this 'Pineapple' tomato and was met, to my surprise, with a perfect radiating heart shape right in the center. I guess this is what happens when your tomatoes return the love you give them. LOL

Hah! Don't really think this could survive an ebay shipping. In fact, my tomatos, once sliced don't last very long anywhere. But it sure was fun to discover. If any religious imagery emerges in a future tomato I might reconsider. LOL |
Tomatoes; they can FEEL the love when you grow them. Such a grateful plant. |

I have a peculiar glitch when I use SpaceNavigator (SN) in Inventor 2013 only. The SN functions smoothly in 3ds Max 2013 as well as with any other software (Google Earth...)
The Problem: When my mouse is interfaced with the Inventor window, my orbit functions works a bit then stalls, usually to a dead stop. When I click my mouse outside of Inventor (on desktop for instance), the SN orbit works perfectly in Inventor. Then once I click on the Inventor environment, the SN orbit functions goes back to the slow crawl. I have to resort to using Inventor's orbit (F4) control to get my part to orbit/rotate.
The System:
Xeon W3503 @ 2.4GHz. 8GB Ram. Nvidia Quadro FX 580.
Windows 7 64 bit. SP1.
Inventor 2013. Update 2
3dxConnexion v3.17.3
3dxInventor add-in has been disabled per request of 3dxconnexion forum to rule out their driver being the problem. and still the problem persists. it appears something in Inventor is clogging or not allocating the orbit control of SN to work. (auto zoom works perfectly but not with 3dxInventor disabled)
I've already
- Unistalled then reinstalled 3dx driver (latest).
- Unistalled Inventor's SP2 and installed SP1 for Inventor (since everything was working before SP2. But that didn't work either. So I reinstalled SP2 for now.
Running out of ideas so if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
It doesn't sound like the Space Navigator itself is the problem, but just to be sure do one more test -
with the Navigator connected and running go to the 3DConnexion Control Panel and click Calibrate.
(did they already suggest this?)
Thnx for the suggestion. Unfortunately that had no effect. The problem is still localized in Inventor.
I'm gonna throw this out since it may or may not be related. I've noticed in assemblies if a part/sub-assembly is selected/highlighted rotating and panning with my 3D mouse lags really bad.
I've seen that in Inventor for a long time. I think it's a conflict between the mouse and 3d mouse.

A complete photography guide on iOS
The Photo Guide bills itself as the most comprehensive guide to photography on the App Store and I am inclined to agree. This US$4.99 app is a 250 MB download stuffed with information on all aspects of digital photography. The guide covers cameras, from point-and-shoot to DSLRs, with plenty of info on the capabilities of the cameras built into each iOS device. There's information on filters, composition, HDR photography, lighting, you name it.
Aside from all that great information, The Photo Guide also has several nice features. For example, there are many sample photos that you can tap to enlarge and examine closely. The app keeps track of what you've read and what you haven't, and features a very comprehensive search function. As in any photo book, there are a lot of technical terms. Those are hyperlinked to definitions and explanations.
The app deals with cameras and shooting more than post processing. If The Photo Guide is missing anything, I would have liked to see some videos demonstrating various concepts in the "How-To" section.
While this guide is aimed at beginning photographers, there is much useful information for the more seasoned amateur. We've looked at other guides here at TUAW, such as Master your DSLR Camera which is $4.99 and the free Photography 101 that includes some nice videos.
I don't hesitate to recommend The Photo Guide to digital photographers. It took a lot of work to put this information together in one place. The photo examples are excellent, and the text is concise and clear.
The Photo Guide requires iOS 5 or greater and is optimized for the iPhone 5. It is a universal app, and works happily on most modern iOS devices.
