1GB of RAM showing up as 32MB?
... has anyone experienced this before and if so how to solve it?
I'm building a PC for a friend based on an Intel D845GVSR motherboard and celeron chip but when i plug the RAM into either DIMM socket it only detects as 32mb. Am using 1GB PC2700 333 RAM.
My instinct is that the RAM is dodgy but was wondering if I could have done something wrong?My body's a temple... and like those ancient Greek ones it's a ruin

hi sweenster,
I have experienced this sort of thing (usually after power surges/cuts ) so it could be the ram is dodgy.
check that the ram is compatible with the MB.
check that the BIOS supports this ram - should do if MB does
its worth running some memory testing software - most Linux install cds provide a free memory tester.
can you test it on another MB?
are you using anti-static straps/mats when you install ?
if the ram is faulty, you may be able to get it replaced.

Sounds to me that either the RAM is dodgy or that the motherboard doesn't support it. However, if the motherboard is brand new then I doubt it.
I'd try it in another machine and if it is still showing up at 32mb, it's a dud.

The faulty Socket.
To my opinion the DIMM socket could be the trouble some guy which you've to check it out. Just go thrugh the manual and find out the motherboards who support this RAM. Try to install it in the motherboard mentioned in the manual at someone else's place. If still it shows the same problem, try to replace it..
Always blame on me..

where are you seeing the 32MB notification ? are you sure you are not just seeing the graphic cards shared memory notification which often shows up when the machine posts ?

MVC is the current buzz in web application architectures. It comes from event-driven desktop application design and doesn't fit into web application design very well. But luckily nobody really knows what MVC means, so we can call our presentation layer separation mechanism MVC and move on. (Rasmus Lerdorf)

More Failed Votes Won't Fix America's Crony Sugar Market
Fiscal conservatives don't like farm subsidies. They don't like unnecessary hurdles to trade. And they certainly don't like taxes or inflated consumer prices.
Mr. Martin serves as the President of the 60 Plus Association, which has been called an "increasingly influential lobbying group for the elderly--often viewed as the conservative alternative to the American Association of Retired Persons."
Jim Martin joined the Marine Corps in 1953 at age 17 as the Korean "conflict" concluded and served on active duty until 1958. In 1955, his Battalion Commander awarded Jim a meritorious citation for "exemplary conduct and leadership qualities exhibited in the performance of duties." In 1956 Sergeant Jim Martin began a two-year tour of duty as an elite Marine Security Guard at the American Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Jim entered the University of Florida in 1959 and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism in 1962, where he received the William Randolph Hearst reporting award for creative writing. Jim came to Washington in 1962 where he covered Congress and the White House for two years during the Kennedy-Johnson administration as a newspaper reporter and radio/TV broadcaster for 3 dozen media outlets in the South. Jim served for six years as Chief of Staff to Congressman, then Senator, the late Edward J. Gurney (R-FL), 1964-69.
He has helped to organize and direct several advocacy groups including the National Conservative Political Action Committee (NCPAC) and the Public Service Research Council (PSRC) (Americans Against Union Control of Government), which opposes public sector compulsory unionism as a threat to elected representation
60 Plus is a hard hitting organization dedicated to protecting the tax rights of seniors, and to repealing the most confiscatory of all taxes--the inheritance or estate (death) tax. Jim Martin has been quoted as saying that while there are two certainties in life, taxes and death, now, thanks to the death tax, Jim adds a third certainty--taxes after death. 60 Plus presents a Benjamin Franklin Award to Members of Congress in both parties who sponsor legislation to abolish the third certainty, taxes after death. Original sponsors are Rep. Chris Cox (R-CA) and Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ).
60 Plus, now eleven years old, has grown to over 500,000 citizen lobbyists nationally. 60 Plus is the only conservative senior citizens group to publish a Congressional Rating System, scoring Members of Congress based on their pro-senior votes. In the 105th Congress, 60 Plus presented the non-partisan GUARDIAN OF SENIORS' RIGHTS AWARD, to 254 Members, Republicans and Democrats, in both the House and the Senate.
Mr. Martin has also been a vocal critic of taxpayer subsidized political advocacy groups. In 1995, he testified four times before Congress on this volatile issue where he spotlighted the fact that more than 40 seniors' organizations receive hundreds of millions of tax dollars and, as Jim puts it, "politick openly and blatantly with said dollars." Jim correctly pointed out that this was "just the tip of the iceberg" and subsequent Congressional investigations substantiated the charge that there is at least a '39 billion dollar dirty little secret' in Washington, to wit your "tax dollars at work in all sorts of illegal ways and for political activities for which you may not be in agreement."
Fiscal conservatives don't like farm subsidies. They don't like unnecessary hurdles to trade. And they certainly don't like taxes or inflated consumer prices.
The barber nearly lopped off the congressman's ear, but it wouldn't have been his fault if he had. For years, the tacit agreement that exists between every barber and customer to sit still as a statue when the clippers are humming was fiercely observed. But the barber said something that startled the normally reserved lawmaker to suddenly spin his head around mid-snip.
President George H.W. Bush famously took a stand against broccoli, a brash move that won worldwide kudos from those who don't like "eat your peas" politics. But sometimes --- and I think moms can back me up on this --- you need to eat your peas, political ones too. That's why so many conservative groups, including the one I chair, are publicly backing the Marketplace Fairness Act.
Policy successes in Washington are few and far between these days, so more than ever we pray that our leaders follow the old adage, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
As chairman of the 60 Plus Association, the established conservative alternative to the liberal AARP, I'm often asked who seniors think Mitt Romney should choose for the ticket. Out of our 7.2 million senior citizen activists nationally, 60 Plus has some 790,000 seniors in the Sunshine State. Coupled with the fact I grew up in Florida and our national spokesman, legendary singer Pat Boone, was born in Jacksonville, there is a natural lean toward Marco Rubio. But setting aside my personal biases, below I offer the unofficial "Senior VP Sweepstakes" preview that reflects input I've received from seniors all across the country.
When asked by a New York Times reporter how it felt to have failed 700 times in his attempt to perfect the light bulb, Thomas Edison famously quipped, "I have not failed. I've succeeded in finding 700 ways that do not work." Edison may have done his best work over a hundred years ago, but his sentiments concerning the labor required to give birth to innovation are completely in sync today with one of our nation's most crucial industries: the pharmaceutical industry.
This week the president's re-election campaign officially dumped the campaign's old motto, "It's all Bush's fault!" for a new one, "Forward." It may not be the catchiest slogan, but given the dismal state of the country after three and a half years of his stewardship, what other options does Obama really have?
It is downright amazing that the most momentous, and contemptible, piece of legislation Washington has seen in the last 50 years passed without tempting one Republican in the entire Congress to cross the aisle and join in. History will forever recall that Obamacare, in all its budget-busting and government-expanding glory, is entirely a creation of the Democrats, from the secret meetings where all 2,700 pages were drafted, to its final passage. And the GOP stayed unified throughout; not a single cat was lost in the herd!
The tax-and-spend crowd in Congress is at it again, trying to pass new taxes that would raise energy prices and further deplete already overstretched family budgets. When are they going to understand that seniors, retirees, the unemployed, working class families and the many other Americans who are counting every penny these days simply can no longer afford to pay for their pet projects?
Seniors depend largely on the medical expertise provided to them by their physicians. We have little choice but to trust that they are helping us make good health decisions, and most importantly, putting safety first.
While many Gulf residents continue to suffer from the fallout of the oil spill disaster, it appears that others are viewing the tragedy as a stroke of good fortune. The Deepwater Horizon incident has served as an impetus for environmentalists to ram through liberal policies in Congress. Left-wing groups have manipulated the facts in an effort to impose huge tax increases on American businesses and consumers.

It just seems like no matter how crappy the work week may be ...... there is always something that happens to make one smile. :-)
Last week we were so very busy. It was pure insanity ! Then out of no where comes a drug sales rep. She was so cheerful and had such funny stories to share with us. I had known her for several years and we have exchanged many stories. She goes to auctions and purchases horses that are destined for the slaughter house and gives them sanctuary and love. Her latest addition was a Clydesdale mare and her foal. The foal died within 4 days of being rescued from the slaughter but his Mom is gaining weight and doing well. This kind lady went on-line and found a book for me. 'Arnie The Darling Starling' was given me as a gift after she endured my stories about Kramer, the starling. How nice is that? She went out of her way to track something down that she knew I would **LOVE** to have ! That act of kindness certainly made the week worth while. So ........ What nice thing happened to YOU recently? ChickaDx3 |

Your sweet story (plus the fleeting picture in my mind of your drug rep ACTUALLY being so "happy" because she's "sampling her merchandise"). But that really WAS thoughtful. Other than that, just every morning when Tater Tot hops in bed with me to snuggle and play a bit (sometimes he'll get under the covers and stay for a while, too)... Always makes me feel special! :) |
The one that sticks out in my 1 brain cell right at the moment is Mamabirrd and Horton giving away their winnings from the football grid to well deserving charities of their choice. Very cool. |
Even better than that Semper , is the fact that it was you who put the prizes up out of your own pocket and organised the football pool for the benefit and entertainment of the forum members. A very unselfish and considerate act. Here's to giving instead of taking. "H" |

I got my wife a Walther PPK for Mom's Day as I thought she'd like the looks and be willing to keep it around her instead of her beloved Walther P22. Anyway, she drove down from SC yesterday to watch my pin match and I made sure she had the PPK with her. Spent about a half hour with her before the pin shoot helping her get accustomed to the gun and how it shoots. For any of y'all that haven't fired a fixed barrel .380 - they're pretty snappy in the recoil department. Set the target a 5 yards and loaded 5 in the mag. 3 of the first 5 were about 6 inches left of center but patterned well. The other 2 were in the black. Worked with her a bit more on stance and sight alignment (and grip) and then she proceeded to shoot the remaining 45 rounds. I was very pleased that she kept everything in about a 6 inch circle at roughly COM. Tried to get a picture of the target but I think she knew I'd post it up and didn't want me to. While she isn't totally comfortable yet with the snappy recoil, I think great progress was made yesterday...

Good deal.
I hope she enjoys her new pistol. I must admit that until i saw this & did a quick search, i thought the PPK was only made in Europe.
She actually has an Interarms PPK/S with the slightly longer grip and I have an older blued PPK. Great little guns but they're just a tad to big for pocket carry. In the summer I carry mine quite often...
Good job, NGIB. Next time, while she is shooting, get a pic of her and the pistol. Ladies make the prettiest smiles when they are shooting. It has to do with the empowerment, I think. It's a glow smile. That's hot!
From C3Shooter: Skullcrusher, you are evil, sick, demented, twisted- and my hero!
Hugely funny (and the reason I think pix were a no no) was that spouse was wearing a frilly low cut tank top. I suggested she toss on a t-shirt (store sells them) and she looked at me coldly and says - not happening. About 25 rounds into the shooting session, a piece of hot brass heads where all pieces of hot brass head - down the front of said tank top. Being the quality husband that I am - I suppressed laughter until I went out for a smoke...
Well done, NGIB. The .380 PPK is a huge improvement over the .22 P22! I love the design, it's definitely on my wish list.
Now hatred is by far the longest pleasure; Men love in haste, but they detest at leisure. - Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron), Don Juan (canto XII, st. 6)
Got a PPK in 9mm k as my covert carry, good gun easy to tuck out of the way, this ones a 1972 ex police vintage german original issiued to the RUC

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.
- 1 cup honey
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/4 teaspoons minced fresh orange zest
- 2 tablespoons Manto (Greek orange herb-flavored liqueur, made by Metaxa)
In a heavy saucepan combine the honey, the orange juice, the water, and the zest and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until it is reduced to 1 1/3 cups. (If the syrup is reduced too much, it becomes too thick and too sweet.) Stir in the Manto and let the syrup cool. The syrup may be made 1 week in advance and kept, covered, at room temperature.
Makes about 1 1/3 cups

Sharing a Smoke With Charlie Toraño
Posted: Sep 4, 2008 10:10am ET
Charlie Toraño came by the office today. Charlie is the president of Toraño Cigars, and his family is one of the leading families of cigars and tobacco. Back in the pre-embargo days, the Toraños grew tons of great wrapper tobacco in Cuba. After losing their farms to the Cuban Revolution, the Toraños were responsible for helping grow tobacco in the Dominican Republic and Honduras. They were true pioneers.Today the Toraños make cigars in Honduras and Nicaragua, and Charlie brought along one of their newest, the Carlos Toraño Tribute 2008.
If you've enjoyed earlier versions of Tribute, you might have wondered where the heck they are—the last one went on sale in 2004. This is a limited-edition product the Toraños come out with on occasion, and they've waited four years to release this one.
They've stepped up the blend a bit with the '08 version. It has a dark wrapper from the Mata Fina region of Brazil, a Nicaraguan binder leaf and a mix of Nicaraguan fillers from Estelí and Jalapa.
We lit them up after lunch, and the cigar gave me a very quick first impression of black pepper spice. It then warmed up nicely to grow more balanced, with the zippy pepper framed by an underlying sweetness. It has hard wood notes, a touch of raisin flavor and a heavy cedar component, probably from the six months of age the cigar has. It burned perfectly.
I caught a familiar flavor in the sweet note and asked Charlie if the binder was from the Pueblo Nuevo farm in Nicaragua. It is—this is a proprietary Toraño/C.A.O. farm that grows very nice tobacco with a good sweet component.
I shot a little video of the cigar and Charlie explaining what makes it special. Take a look:
The cigar goes on sale in October. Charlie is proud of it: "You get the best of the tobacco we have," he said.
The Tribute will come in three sizes, Churchill, Robusto (the size I smoked) and Torpedo. Prices will be in the $10 range.
We're going to have more on the new Toraño smokes coming to market in Tuesday's Cigar Insider.

It's the 'Year of the Bible' in Pennsylvania
By HEMANT MEHTA - FRIENDLY ATHEIST
Added: Sat, 28 Jan 2012 15:38:34 UTC
House Resolution 535 in Pennsylvania, sponsored by Rep. Rick Saccone (R-obviously), declares:
That the House of Representatives declare 2012 as the "Year of the Bible" in Pennsylvania in recognition of both the formative influence of the Bible on our Commonwealth and nation and our national need to study and apply the teachings of the holy scriptures.
Right… because we have a "national need" to understand Genesis, genocide, and all the other bullshit in the Bible.

I like this eyeshadow very much. It is easy to apply, cheap, and it has nice color payoff. I have it in Purple Dazzle. The glitter does tend to fall off throughout the day, but overall I'm very happy with it, because it managed to last through my sweaty high school homecoming dance. :)

I'm really loving these shadows. So inexpensive and you get to play with a few colors without much product commitment. Anyhow, this black is really something special. Dead ringer for the Guerlain loose kohl in Noir. I wish I had known about this product earlier.... Just make sure you use a primer on your waterline and lower lashline. Blink a few times to transfer and then use this shadow. Probably have to do a few coats to really get this on, and the fallout was pretty big, whereas no fallout from Guerlain. Of course you'll need to touch it up a few times during the day or evening, but I'd do that anyway... I actually prefer this in terms of color and shimmer over the Guerlain, this is more shimmery and was what I was hoping the Guerlain would be. You'll still need to tightline the top lash line, even if some transfers. Would definitely repurchase, haven't tried as a shadow yet but as a shadow/liner for a smokey eye this is fantastic. Easy to take along and if you loose it it's less than $10 to replace. Nice to be able to take shadows/liners with you just in case... Not sure how long one of these will last, but since I'm redipping into the same well of e/s I don't mind replacing often. Without a doubt a great purchase!

I got a couple of these expecting great things, the colors seem nice and the packaging is super cute and perfect for makeup bag, doesn't take up much room. Anyhow I tried one on as a liner it went on really nice and lasted a couple of hours...then the itch set in. Come to find that something in these little e/s gives me an allergy. I tried using it once again to see if it was just me... sadly it is. Although my sister loved them and gladly took them off my hands. And I'm happy to report, no allergy on her part.

I love this product! It is perfect to make a smokey-eye, I just draw a thick line with the sponge applicator and then run my finger along it and it is perfectly smudged :)
Yes, some does get on your cheeks, but I do my eye make-up first so I use a wet washcloth to remove the fallout before continuing.

The glitter doesn't last, and it falls very easily to the cheeks. I've tried every brush and sponge for eyes and the eyeshadow still falls under the eyes onto the cheeks. Very messy. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

-Attractive package
-The sparkles and black shadow do go on easily with the unique wand
-When I go to put it on my eyelid it all dusts down under my eyes and on to my cheeks! there was black specs everywhere and when I went to wipe it I got black smears on my face.
...Very disappointed I can't use this at all because of that. Would definitely not reccommend it.

Communities are increasingly using light pole banners to add excitement and community spirit to events and occasions. Yet many communities in high wind and hurricane zones face challenges using banners due to risks of light pole damage from the extra wind resistance created by large banners, in addition to worries of damage to the banners themselves.
However, communities such as Hallandale, FL are turning to advanced banners and brackets as a way to add beauty to their streets or promote current events that provide up to 50% less wind resistance than conventional banners and hardware. This banner system, developed by Kalamazoo Banner Works, has been developed with strength, durability and reduced wind resistance in mind.
Depending on actual wind force, the design provides a significant reduction in wind resistance due to a specially shaped fiberglass rod installed at slight angles to place the banner in tension so that the wind force is immediately transferred to the fiberglass arms, reducing load onto the light pole.
This system absorbs shock and prevents detrimental banner "flapping" and undue pole vibration, which is the major cause of wear and tear. The fiberglass arms may also be removed if no banner is present, while the mounting hardware can remain on the pole until it is needed again.
While some neighborhoods find various forms of outdoor advertising amongst the debris following large storms and hurricanes, towns and shopping centers that use the KBW BannerFlex have not only saved time from clean-up, they have saved money.
David J. Cangemi, in charge of General Services for the City of Hallandale, FL was particularly impressed with the KBW banner system's performance saying, "A tropical storm came blasting through south Florida. Debris and banners were dispersed all over the city. I used KBW and not one of our banners was lost."

Matt Selby is back on his game with renewed energy -- and a new menu -- at Central Bistro & Bar
All photos by Lori Midson. A happy Matt Selby, along with the crew of Central Bistro & Bar.
Late last November, when Matt Selby exited his executive chef post at the Corner House, an irresistibly charming restaurant in Jefferson Park co-owned by James Iacino, president of Seattle Fish, he stepped away from the spotlight, quietly doing time in the kitchens of Beast + Bottle and Jonesy's EatBar and pausing to reflect on his priorities. "I needed to take some time to find myself and figure out what was most important to me," admits Selby. "And what means the most to me," he says, is "cooking, getting my ass kicked on a Friday and Saturday night and working with people that I can collaborate with."
All of which he has found at Central Bistro & Bar, where he's now the executive chef, collaborating, he says, with a galley full of pros and a solid management team, led by owner Isiah Salazar and general manager Seth Murty.

"We knew we had to get someone in the kitchen with a sense of leadership and someone who pushed conversations and let everyone have a voice, and I've always looked up to Matt, and when we sat down to chat, we just hit it off; it was a really great fit from the get-go, and I knew that he'd inspire and lead what's already a talented kitchen," says Salazar.
"I'm not a one-man jam," confesses Selby. "I need to be able to bounce ideas off of people," he stresses, "and I need to be on the line, cooking, touching every ingredient and sitting down with my really talented crew, including my two awesome sous chefs, and having brainstorming sessions -- asking questions, like 'Which restaurants have you recently been to?'; 'Where have you traveled?'; 'What are you reading and what are you exited about?'" The confabs, he adds, are "more like coffee conversations," and from those, new menus emerge.
And Selby has just released his first menu at Central, a spring board that he describes as "simple and clean with an emphasis on technique and putting great flavors together that celebrate the top of the season," a time of year, he notes, that's "all about tying together early spring produce and late winter's bounty."
It's not the easiest transition, admits Selby, but it's one that he wholly embraces. "I love the challenge of playing with the Colorado weather patterns," he says. "One day it's sunny, while the next day, we have sideways snow, but I love that, and it gives me the opportunity to showcase spring and winter ingredients in innovative ways."

You don't want to light up around Madonna.
The singer scolded her fans for smoking cigarettes during her sound check at a concert in Santiago, Chile, Wednesday, and threatened to cancel the show if they didn't put them out. The incident was caught on video.
"If you're going to smoke cigarettes, I'm not doing a show," Madonna is heard saying in the video.
The crowd at the outdoor venue screamed "No."
"You don't care about me, I don't care about you," the 54-year-old singer said. "Are we going to play that game? I'm not kidding. I can't sing if you smoke. ¿Entiendes?
"You're looking right at me while you're smoking cigarettes like I'm a stupid f**king idiot," she said.

Over and over again I read those words; at least twenty times in all. At first my heart and mind were hung up on what I did wrong; I'd dishonored, I'd boasted, I'd lost hope. I felt guilty for not living up to love's standard, and worse I felt completely inadequate in its presence.
Yet, when I reread love's words again, objectively this time, my eyes landed on it keep no record of wrongs. I realized that I'd been doing exactly that; logging and tracking mine and others actions and behaviors and in doing so had been holding love at an arms length.
Love's stream is constant and its gifts and lessons are here for me every single moment.

Our home sits on 20 pristine acres of Ponderosa and Tamarack pines overlooking Lake Mary Ronan. For as far as you can see, there is not another house in sight, just mountains, trees and lake views. Located 7 miles off of U.S. highway 93 on the west side of Flathead Lake, Lake Mary Ronan sits at the end of the road.. There is no through traffic at all, which provides a very serene and quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The house itself is a custom built 4 bedroom 2 bath home and is divided up to provide privacy within. The main living area and kitchen are connected to the sleeping wing by a 40 foot long, 7 foot wide gallery that has access to the outdoor dining area and can be closed off to insure quiet for the late sleepers.. The house itself is 2100 sq. ft. with 2000 sq. ft. of outdoor terraces, and there are sliding glass doors from all rooms to invite nature inside and easy access to the hot tub. The bedrooms are set up for comfort with great views from all, and we have 1 king, 2 queens, and a set of twin bunks. The main bathroom in the sleeping wing has a large soaking tub, a shower, a washer and dryer, and even a fireplace! The main living area is very cozy, with lake views through a stretch of glass 16 feet wide where you can sit and watch the fire in the outdoor fire ring or the horseshoe game going on outside. A 46' LCD HD TV and a DVD player provides entertainment for watching movies from the video library and a stereo system provides music indoors and out.

Scott and Kerry Nagel built this home as a city girl/ country boy oasis. While Scott enjoys the wilderness and all of its outdoor recreation, Kerry works on her art. Our Northwest- coastal style home with high end contemporary finishes is the best of both worlds. We have both been in the food and beverage industry forever, and built and ran Wasabi Sushi Bar in Whitefish before selling it in 2008.
Rhonda Walter purchased this house in 2010
We chose this property because of its beauty and its privacy. It also gives us access to two lakes, one being a quaint fishing lake and the other being a large recreational lake. We also chose this spot above the lake for the great views, the deeded lake access and the privacy and quiet that comes with being off the lakeshore.
This house and property is very unique. it was built to enjoy nature and the outdoors as well for art, food, wine and the finer things in life. The gallery with the outdoor space attached gives a sense of both city and country living at the same time.

Testicular Self-Exam (TSE)
A testicular self-exam is a way for men to notice any changes, lumps, or abnormalities in their testicles. These changes may be a sign of testicular cancer. Since the benefits are not clear, many professional organizations, including the American Cancer Society do not make specific recommendations about regular testicular self-exams for all men.
In most cases, you will have a testicular exam during regular check-ups (generally every 1-3 years). Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of monthly self-exams. You may be advised to do monthy self-exams if you are considered a high risk for testicular cancer.
You may be considered high-risk if you have:
- Undescended testicle(s)
- A family member with testicular cancer
- A history of testicular cancer
If your doctor recommends doing monthly self-exams, follow the steps below.
- To make it easier to remember, select some specific day (such as the first day of the month) when you will routinely perform this exam.
- It is easier to do the exam while standing up after a warm bath or shower. The warmth makes the skin of the scrotum more soft and relaxed, so it is easier to examine the testicular surface underneath it.
- Take extra time on your first self-exam to find out how your testicles feel normally. For example, the back surface contains the epididymis, which stores sperm from the testicles. It feels like a small bump on the side of the testis, which might be mistaken for an abnormal growth if you are unaware of the area.
- Hold each testis in your hand, feeling whether its size or weight have changed since your last self-exam.
- Look at your testes to see if there are any changes.
- Hold an individual testis in both hands and roll it slowly with the thumb and fingers of your hand, feeling for small lumps or areas of soreness. The most common first finding of testicular cancer is a small, firm lump attached to the testis.
If you notice any changes, lumps, or other abnormalities, see your doctor right away.
In addition, if you feel aching in the lower abdomen or groin, or a feeling of heaviness in the scrotum, tell your doctor. This may be a warning sign of cancer.

Get more out of your favorite color! Create 9 shades of your favorite hue in this value scale exercise.
Have students observe a few black and white photographs. Are the images only black and white? Are there shades of gray present as well? In the absence of color, we rely on values to define the detail of the image. Value is the element of art that describes the amount of lightness or darkness in a hue. In a black and white photo, white is the lightest value, and black is the darkest value. There are shades of gray in between that range from white to black. Allow students to observe a value scale to see white gradually change to black!
Values help to add depth to a drawing or painting so it looks more 3D. Imagine any of the black and white pictures as outlines without the values. Does it still look like a photograph, or is it flat and cartoon-like? Explain to students that this is why being able to create values is such a powerful skill to have as an artist.
Colors have values too! Some colors, like blue, are darker in value when compared with a fairly light color, like yellow. Ask students where their favorite color would fall on a color scale. Is it closer to white, black, or right in the middle?
Students select their favorite color Crayola® Colored Pencil and create a value scale that ranges from white to black with that hue! Start by neatly drawing 9 squares side-by-side on a sheet of white paper. Use a ruler to get crisp, straight lines. Leave the square all the way to the left blank. This will be your lightest value, white. Fill in the far right square with black Colored Pencil. Press firmly on the Colored Pencil to completely cover all of the white paper in that square.
Lightly build up layers of color in each square until you have a full value scale! Add white or black colored pencil as needed to smoothly transition a full range of values along each square in the scale. Tip: If students squint their eyes when looking at the value scale, it will help them to see which squares are too light or too dark!
