Monarch Medspa is stocked with a supportive and caring staff of licensed professionals who perform thousands of cosmetic procedures each year. Laser hair removal gradually and permanently removes unwanted hair by destroying the follicle itself, like Godzilla reaching into the ground and carving away at the bedrock instead of inefficiently whacking at skyscraper tips. Treat a variety of areas, including the upper lip, chin, and back of the neck (all $183 per treatment), as well as underarms ($220 per treatment) and bikini line ($265 per treatment). Each treatment takes only minutes and is performed by licensed nurses under the supervision of medical directors. This deal also includes a plastic-surgery consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon (a $75 value).
Led by the pedigreed Dr. Lawrence Rosenberg and Dr. Michele Shermak, the Plastic Surgery Center's three high-tech facilities focus not just on beautifying clients but also on educating them about the surgical process. Relax under their capable care with a round of frown-line fighting Dysport, which aims to imbue new vitality into the manifold folds of aging countenances. A sequence of five quick injections can reduce the wrinkles and fine lines caused by aging, stress, and artisanal cheese-tasting. While effects are not permanent, the procedure may stop the muscles that cause furrows from contracting, providing temporary forehead toning.
Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. A. Miller Alonso brings more than 25 years of experience to his practice, two decades of which was spent as chief of plastic surgery at St. Agnes Hospital and Harbor Hospital. He specializes in cosmetic treatments such as face lifts, tummy tucks, and thigh lifts, in which he deftly hones curves, tightens sagging skin, and transforms dimpled surfaces into smooth laminate countertops. When he's not whittling figures at Creative, Dr. Alonso is traversing the globe organizing surgical missions and teaching surgeons how to perform techniques of his own invention.
At Artistry in Plastic Surgery, Dr. Brent Birely uses a combination of medical know-how and artistic talent to transform patients' exteriors. As a physician who is board certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery, Inc. and has been practicing for more than 15 years, Dr. Birely has the expertise to perform complex procedures such as breast augmentations, breast lifts, tummy tucks, liposuction, face-lifts, and eyelid enhancements. He also possesses a keen eye for symmetry and proportion and a knack for paying meticulous attention to detail—talents that come in handy during nonsurgical treatments. He can diminish scars and uneven skin tone with a laser skin-resurfacing session or target fine lines and wrinkles with cosmetic injectables and dermal fillers. Additionally, Dr. Birely's team specializes in advanced skincare services, which range from dermaplaning and microdermabrasion to chemical peels and medical-grade facials.
Dr. Dean Kane's pursuit of beauty has led him across the country and beyond. His specialized training in plastic surgery and medicine began at the University of Puerto Rico, then continued with residencies at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore and the University of Florida. Today, Dr. Kane shares his knowledge of plastic and reconstructive surgery techniques with up-and-coming doctors as a clinical professor at Johns Hopkins Hospital, and beautifies patients at his plastic-surgery practice.
From the moment clients enter the couch- and art-adorned waiting room to the time they grapple through the skylight, the attentive staff cater to them with personal attention. Before treatment⎯such as tummy tucks, liposuction, and Botox injections⎯clients consult with Dr. and Lauri Kane to ask questions about procedures as well as outline their beauty goals. Post-procedure, the clinical or operating-room nurse oversees patients through the entire recovery process.
There?s something about Dr. Angel Purdy that inspires confidence in her clients. Perhaps it?s the fact that she?s a native of Baltimore, but it more likely has to do with the professional Obagi, Arbonne, and Kinerase products she uses to treat skin during her chemical peels and microdermabrasion treatments. Dr. Purdy also wants her clients to have confidence in themselves, so she helps them feel comfortable in their own skin with laser hair-removal treatments and injectables that smooth away wrinkles. She also performs cosmetic and reconstructive surgery to reduce the appearance of scars, tighten and lift skin, and remove phantom tails that make it painful to sit down.

So apparently 5.2 killed multiboxing or something

Forum rage: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8156055600 http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8155915757 http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8155955687 What's special about this is that it was a surprise change--no mention of it in patch notes or on the PTR. The obvious reason for why it'd be kept secret is to prevent the people who program and sell bots from being able to prepare and update. And of course, in reality this doesn't kill multiboxing, it kills multiboxing in PvP, so goodbye to the days of 5-9 characters one-shotting people. --- http://i33.tinypic.com/i3yr8w.png http://i56.tinypic.com/2d9tox1.jpg | |
Does it really have a negative effect? Less afks and bots in bgs is a winning idea. Good on blizz. --- Even addiction has diminishing returns. Johnrockks#1547 http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/kelthuzad/Marisette/advanced | |
i wonder what prepared is gonna do now with his characters. --- psn - elixe // live - e1ixe | |
The negative effect is that people who enjoy WoW enough that they pay additional subscription fees each month so that they can control multiple characters at the same time are no longer able to play PvP in that style, and they were given no forewarning or time to prepare for such a change. Of course, the counterargument to that is that multiboxing in PvP is akin to cheating and denigrates the gameplay experience for everyone else; or that helping to prevent people from trying to automate their honor farming outweighs the negative side effect. There's also a big topic on the forums right now about a blind player who is no longer able to PvP because of the change, which kind of sucks, but if there's a WoW demographic smaller than multiboxers, it's the blind. --- http://i33.tinypic.com/i3yr8w.png http://i56.tinypic.com/2d9tox1.jpg | |
World of Warcraft: So simple minded friendly you can PVP blind. | |
I've always just seen multiboxing as cheating that they can get away with because of how much money they give to bliz. Glad they got rid of it. --- http://i43.tinypic.com/f2sjug.jpg Not changing this sig until the Twins win a World Series. | |
Despite what people would logically think (particularly in regards to hoarding all the dollars), Blizzard doesn't really like people multi-boxing. --- Thomx like tommicks | |
I don't really think the /follow is the command that players use too often in PvP. What I've read about it is all the accounts are in the exact same place, and then one keystroke will do the exact same thing with each of the characters, which includes movement. If multiboxers were using the /follow command, they'd only be able to be attacking with one character at a time with the rest of them just chilling behind them. What this does prevent more is afkers in BGs, which frankly I am not totally thrilled about, specifically for AV. I'm not trying to wait 2 and a half minutes before the game starts, and then spend another 2 and a half minutes trying to get to the other side of the map without /follow. For more practical purposes, this would kill some organized ganking attempts, what with having 3 players behind you on auto-follow to synchronize an attack perfectly. --- When all else fails, rage quit. | |

It's a lot harder to play a Resto Shaman AND a Demo Lock than either one alone. And it makes leveling new toons faster. Just get two of something with RaF and you've got yourself speeding to 80.

They actually tried making CCW's public in my county. It was shot down by the sheriff's department before anyone else could rally against it. The argument lasted about 1 week, then the department basically said that they would refuse to turn over the records as a matter of public safety. End of discussion.

Technote (troubleshooting)
ITCAM for Microsoft Applications - SQL Server Agent configuration fails with message "AFUtil64.exe has stopped working" .
Configure a new instance of ITCAM Microsoft SQL Server agent by right clicking the agent template in Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services window . After filling in the Database Server Properties, click the OK button. Following message box is displayed:
Microsoft SQL Server is running in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit Windows operating system and the monitoring agent is installed at 64 bit.
Windows 2008, 64 bit architecture
IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Microsoft Applications - Monitoring agent for Microsoft SQL Server, V6.2.3, 64-bit
Diagnosing the problem
1. Check the MSSQL Server bit level as follows:
Open a new query in SQL Server Management window and execute the following:
select @@version
If the output shows server architecture of Intel X86 - then the MSSQL server is running at 32 bit level. For example:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3042.00 (Intel X86) Feb 9 2007
22:47:07 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express
Edition with Advanced Services on Windows NT 6.1 (Build 7601: Service
Pack 1)
2. Check bit level of monitoring agent for MS SQL Server.
From ITM\InstallITM directory, run following command:
kincinfo -d -t oq
Check the output for MSSQL agent architecture. For example, following output shows that the agent is installed at 64 bit level (WIX64):
"OQ","Monitoring Agent for Microsoft SQL Server",
Above results mean that a 64 bit monitoring agent is installed to monitor a 32 bit MSSQL Server instance. This incompatibility is causing the problem with agent configuration.
Resolving the problem
To resolve the problem, follow these steps:
1. Uninstall the 64 bit MSSQL monitoring agent using Add/Remove programs or equivalent tool for the Windows operating system.
2. Install 32 bit Monitoring Agent for MS SQL Server. This 32 bit agent is in the same install image that was used to install 64 bit monitoring agent.
3. Install 32/64 bit compatibility package, if not already installed. You can check if this package is installed by looking at kincinfo output for "AC" component. For example:
kincinfo -d -t ac
AC 32/64 Bit Agent Compatibility Package WIX64 06.23.01.00 201202220943 20120727 2134
4. Configure MSSQL agent.

Re:I've found these tools useful (132 comments)
Great tool for HTML conversion. Doesn't meet the OP's criteria, but it's the best open source HTML to PDF converter I've found.
Re:Am I understanding this correctly? (83 comments)
DKIM validates off of the 'd=' in the DKIM signature. If the mailing list software alters the message (by adding an unsubscribe notice or other list decoration, e.g.), then the original DKIM signature is invalid regardless of any header address.
SPF validates the sending IP to the SMTP mFROM claim. Most list software changes the mFROM to a list bounce address, and therefore SPF at least passes.
DMARC does a couple of things to validate messages... First, it compares DKIM and SPF domains to the header From domain - if they "align", then it checks to see if each passes. If either DKIM or SPF passes and is aligned, then DMARC rules aren't triggered.
So, for list software to work with DMARC, they either have to keep the original message content (and some headers) - i.e. act as a (reasonably) strict forwarding system - or they have to claim ownership of the email message and resign it.
Going down the route of From vs. Sender (i.e. purported responsible address) is a rehash of the attempted Microsoft SenderID "improvement" on SPF.
Re:And google will retain that info exclusively. (195 comments)
Emails that wind up in "Promotions" are verified valid marketing material. I.e. it passes DKIM and SPF, comes from a known good behavior IP, isn't spammy...
For now, at least, Google seems to be (mostly) playing along with the marketing folks while still trying to (a) enhance their user experience and (b) give themselves a leg up. The image pre-load is definitely going to alter things like newsletter and ad read rates that marketers depend on to tell how well they're targeting their subscribers; I imagine the marketers will work their way around it in short order if they feel they're losing too much information.
Re:what? (258 comments)
Um, no. There is no other corporate or government entity in this country that is required to meet the standards applied to the USPS under that law, and the 75 years is indeed a hard funding benefit - they've got a $5b/year over 10 years requirement.
I believe if you look at the accounting, absent the pre-payment plan the USPS actually made money last year.
Copyright is too long, but... (361 comments)
I agree that Nintendo's suit based on copyright is counterproductive - that, in fact, anything that's been on the market for 30 years has outlived any need for protection under Copyright law. Limit it to the same duration enforced for patents - 14 + 14 - and I think we come closer to the intent of the founding fathers (who probably would argue that even 7 years was an incredible head start...).
But Nintendo could still have shut this project down through trademark protection. Indeed, they are obligated under trademark law to shut the site down or at least force a formal licensing agreement out of the author (and a corresponding change in the open source license terms...). SMB and its characters remain prominent symbols not only of the Mario franchise but also Nintendo as a company - there's no way they could let this go.
Re:Consider doubling down on math (656 comments)
The most important things to me as a programmer in a team:
1) Can you work logically through a problem? Can you break a problem into its constituent parts and expound on the possible consequences of what you are attempting? This isn't just math, though the logic of math helps; it's brainstorming, it's thinking outside the box, it's problem analysis; it's even part report writing and presentation - being able to express the problem clearly to others. You have to know all about the subject matter, too - that's point #3 below.
2) Can you code logically, cleanly and maintainably? If your code is one long strand of spaghetti, or reads poorly, or has too many interdependencies, then you aren't doing yourself or your co-workers any favors in the long run. Again, math is good here, but code organization is more about being able to clearly organize parts of the problem into efficient buckets - functional analysis. There are elements of writing class in here, too - even down to the use of white space.
3) Can you learn, and quickly? You don't need to know everything as a programmer - but it really helps if you can figure it out on short notice. Being a good researcher and a fast learner is an invaluable trait in the generic programmer. Having a broad knowledge base to start with is good; first rule of computer professionals - keep learning! Of course, if you're in a specialty field, you'd better look like already knowing what you need to know for your specialty - so don't skimp on the math or physics if you'll be doing game programming, don't skimp on statistics if you'll be doing accounting and business apps.
Consider doubling down on math (656 comments)
I was going to start this out by saying that some people saying DiffEq isn't "higher math" are math geeks and that they're over-emphasizing math... But then I went back and re-read the OP and, well, maybe they're still overstating the case, but they do have a point.
If you really want to go for a career in computer programming, you will need a more solid basis in math than a good understanding of long division. You need to be able to do function based math (grouped under Algebra when I learned it) in your sleep; you will never be any good with computer code if solving simple equations and reading functions isn't second nature to you, regardless of variable names or format. And all of those proofs you did in Geometry and then probably again in Calc I and II - that's formal logic, and if you can't apply formal logic at a whim, computer programming is going to be a rather rough life for you.
Beyond that, statistics and probability, linear algebra, matrix algebra, trig, vector math - these are things you're likely to run across sometime during your career. Maybe (probably) not every day, unless you're in a job that utilizes them heavily, but they're good to have learned at one point so you know where to start 10 years down the road when you run across that situation.
If you really got through the math between long division and DiffEq without really understanding it, I'd recommend going back and working through anything in the above list until you do understand it - and if you have more advanced math ahead of you, include Calculus in your review. If you need a tutor for it, get one; or audit lower level classes as refreshers; or find some book that explains things in terms you understand. Also, if you don't know it already, understand your own learning style and find something that matches your style; understanding how you learn best can help immensely as you go forward.
PS - DiffEq is a bit different; I had zero problems with math classes (aside from being bored) until I got to DiffEq. I did calculus, complex math, matrix algebra, prob&stats, and linear algebra all okay - don't know what it was about DiffEq that tripped me up. Don't feel bad that it seems difficult - it isn't simple. It's also nothing I have used in my career as a software developer.

Depends on the level of the choir (189 comments)
I sang in a semi-pro choir for a while and at one point our director had us all move to the edges of the largish church we were rehearsing, had us face the church walls (i.e. away from each other).... and start singing in unison. Believe it or not, if you know the music and the group you're singing with, it's very doable.
Barring that, having someone who knows what they're doing holding the blind person's hand and tapping or squeezing should do the trick.
Re:Have someone next to you squeeze your arm (189 comments)
Having also sung in choirs and played music, a competent friend will be able to adjust for the delay in the same way that a marching band adjusts for delay across an entire football field. It's very doable.
HTML5 with DRM, or Silverlight... (232 comments)
Decisions, decisions...
Not that either are ideal, but considering that Silverlight (or Netflix) can't manage to sync my audio and video on my current netbook, I'd be willing to switch to improve my Netflix stream.
Re:Yet detractors criticize it as being complicate (197 comments)
Which industry?
I can't remember the last time I needed to use CMYK for my fine art photography. Heck, most of the photo magazines don't even want CMYK any more.
And when I go to develop my website graphics? No CMYK in sight there either.
How about printing business cards, brochures or fliers on a full-color printer? Only if the shop requires it for some bizarre reason - color profiles have pretty much removed the need for CMYK there.
So for some small definition of the word "industry" perhaps CMYK is still useful; for the rest of us, "industry" is getting along just fine without CMYK separations.
DMARC... (187 comments)
Add DMARC to your processing (http://www.dmarc.org/). It's a 'yes, I really meant it' notification for senders to communicate to receivers.
Other than that, the other suggestions already posted are about as good as it gets: use SPF as one element in scoring a message. Mark the message if your e-mail system allows it (e.g. label:authenticated in green, or label:authfail in yellow).
Re:I predict chaos (181 comments)
Average User: Hey, why doesn't the video play automatically anymore?
Other Person: You have to click the big Play button first.
Average User: Oh, okay.
The average user probably won't ever understand why they have to do it, nor will they care, but they'll be able to repeat the necessary step(s).
But they're not clicking the big 'Play' button - they're clicking the 'Are you sure you want to enable this possibly dangerous third-party software' button, and it is altering (read: degrading) the experience the web page designer intended to present to the end user.
And depending on what they just enabled, after they click the "we'll try not to make this scary warning too scary" button THEN they might have to press the 'Play' button that shows up.
Re:I predict chaos (181 comments)
It is a bad thing for some users, yes.
I've turned on Flash to hear background music when listening to recordings of a musical instrument I was considering purchasing. And again, while I as a technical user am interested in clicking buttons in order to enable things, Joe User is not.
I predict chaos (181 comments)
While we as technical users might enjoy a plugin-free experience with no extra clicking involved, the average Joe User is going to be pissed off.
I run with NoScript - does pretty much what Mozilla wants to do (plus script blocking), except without the big gray box. The average user is not interested in NoScript type functionality - they want a rich web experience out of the box, and if that includes Flash, PDF files, and audio, then that's what they want.
I suspect the reason Flash is turned on isn't because of ads - it's because there are a number of high profile corporate websites out there that become unusable if Flash isn't enabled.
The best answer is: whatever drives you (224 comments)
If you want to be a web developer, learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, a web backend language, and SQL. If you want to do sysadmin type stuff, learn a scripting language or three (PowerScript, Python, Perl, UNIX shell scripts (ick!)). If you want to get into heavier programming, pick up languages used in the direction you want to head; that might be a scripting language or it might be a "real" programming language.
If you can, work your programming skills in to your current job. It's much easier to get a job programming if you've been programming at a job. If not, I'd suggest getting involved with a FOSS project of some sort. Experience on the resume is a huge plus; doing a project for yourself on your spare time not so much.
Whatever you do, pick something that you can get "in to"; you'll be happier in the long run if whatever you learn is what you want to be doing. I'm at a programming job now, coming from systems administration; I got there because I was always working for software development companies, and I had to write a lot of scripts and more involved bits and pieces of code. I finally made the leap when I found a programming job that addressed a topic I was passionate about.
Good luck.
Re:Astrolabe, Inc. v. Olson et al (433 comments)
Yeah, my bad. Not (probably) Microsoft.
Of course, the only reason this is an issue is that Olson freely commented on the source of a lot of his data; had he not, no one would question his ability to put it all together.
So many people use the zoneinfo DB now, I'm thinking a modest effort could organize something where individual governments could - and would - contribute their changes and the DB could be recreated from scratch in short order. In fact, given that the U.S. government was hosting the package (and I saw something about the IETF taking it over?), it would almost be poetic if the tz package became the official publication of time zone data that the government points to when someone asks for a public records request on the matter - provided, of course, that it remains free of encumbrance.
Re:Astrolabe, Inc. v. Olson et al (433 comments)
Which opponent does Astrolabe think they'll force into bankruptcy? This move is sure to draw in the orbital lawyer brigades from IBM, Apple, Microsoft, Red Hat and pretty much every other OS and device manufacturer in today's tech world. Maybe they thought they'd start small with Olson, but the presiding judge is going to soon be overwhelmed with amicae briefs.

This model is an all-salmon version of the Mountain Pad. A major upgrade from the Thinline, they have a double curved design that provides substantially more contact area. Full salmon coverage provides maximum braking power. Note! Although Kool Stop's marketing folks think of this as a "mountain bike" item, these are actually the very best option for all brakes that use threaded studs. They may be a problem for front brakes on some bikes that have excessively tight clearance between the fork blades and the rim.

I prefer Kool Stop Supra Salmon pads
By Mark
from Pittsburgh, PA
About Me
Best Uses
I really like the KoolStop Salmon rubber. For me it has given less rim wear, improved wet braking and fine dry braking. I found the Mountain style pads difficult to adjust and prone to squealing. I prefer the KoolStop Supra pads with Salmon rubber. They are easier to adjust and I have experienced much less squeal with them, even installed on the very same bike and wheel.

MEC shocked over patient's death
Comment on this storyNorth West health MEC Magome Masike was shocked by reports that a woman died while waiting to see a doctor in hospital, his spokesman said on Friday.
"MEC Masike has instituted an internal inquiry to determine circumstances that led to the unfortunate death of Kelebogile Mosito," Tebogo Lekgethwane said.
On Friday, Sowetan newspaper reported that Mosito, 22, was admitted at Moses Kotane Hospital in Ledig near Sun City on January 11, after a private doctor referred her to the hospital.
"Nurses saw her when she arrived. They called the two doctors whose names appeared on the standby roster," Shirley Mosito, Kelebogile's cousin, told the newspaper.
"They got hold of one doctor. He said he would see Kelebogile on Monday."
Her brother Khedisaletse who visited her on January 12 said she was in a lot of pain when he saw her.
"She told me she had not seen a doctor and she was feeling weaker. She died that night," he said.
The newspaper reported that the post mortem report said that Mosito had died from severe anaemia and tuberculosis.
Only a doctor can authorise a blood transfusion which could have saved her life, a doctor who asked not to be named told Sowetan. - Sapa

The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

China says no cyber warfare with U.S.
By Don Durfee - 27 mins ago
BEIJING (Reuters) - There is no cyber warfare taking place between China
and the United States, a senior Chinese official said on Wednesday, after
weeks of friction over accusations that China may have launched a string
of Internet hacking attacks.
The two countries might suffer from cyber attacks, but they were in no way
directed by either government, Vice Foreign Minister Cui Tiankai told a
small group of foreign reporters ahead of a meeting with U.S. officials in
Hawaii this weekend.
"I want to clear something up: there are no contradictions between China
and the United States" on the issue of hacking, Cui said.
"Though hackers attack the U.S. Internet and China's Internet, I believe
they do not represent any country," he added.
Both countries were in fact already discussing the problem of hacking
during their regular strategic consultations, Cui said.
"The international community ought to come up with some rules to prevent
this misuse of advanced technology," he added.
State Department spokesman Mark Toner declined to comment on Cui's
cyber-war comments, but said the inaugural U.S.-China Asia-Pacific
Consultations in Honolulu had a general regional focus and no particular
cyber warfare agenda.
"My understanding is that it is about the Asia-Pacific region, writ
large," he said in Washington. Kurt Campbell, the assistant secretary of
state for East Asian and Pacific affairs, would be Cui's counterpart in
the talks, he said.
The accusations against China have centred on an intrusion into the
security networks of Lockheed Martin Corp and other U.S. military
contractors, as well as efforts to gain access to the Google email
accounts of U.S. officials and Chinese human rights advocates.
China has vociferously denied having anything to do with hacking attacks,
saying it too is a major victim.
"Internet security is an issue for all countries, and it is a most
pressing matter," Cui said.
"Of course, every country has different abilities when it comes to this
problem," he added.
"The United States is the most advanced country in the world when it comes
to this technology, and we hope they can step up communication and
cooperation on this with other countries. We also hope this advanced
technology is not used for destructive purposes."
The Internet has become a major bone of contention between Washington and
This month, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Washington was seriously
concerned about cyber attacks and was prepared to use force against those
it considered an act of war.
The latest friction over hacking could bring Internet policy back to the
foreground of U.S.-China relations, reprising tension from last year when
the Obama administration took up Google's complaints about hacking and
censorship from China.
Google partly pulled out of China after that dispute. Since then, it has
lost more share to rival Baidu Inc in China's Internet market.
China, with more than 450 million Internet users, exercises tight control
and censorship over the Web at home, and has strengthened its grip in
recent months.
In February, overseas Chinese websites, inspired by anti-authoritarian
uprisings across the Arab world, called for protests across China, raising
Beijing's alarm about dissent and prompting tightened restrictions over
the Internet.
China already blocks major foreign social websites such as Facebook and
Commerce Secretary Gary Locke, named by President Barack Obama as the next
U.S. ambassador to China, said last week that the United States was
looking into ways to craft trade countermeasures that treat curbs on
Internet commerce as non-tariff barriers to trade.

I posted a while back about adopting a platoon of deployed soldiers and had some interest. I've made contact with a LT currently deployed in Iraq who would welcome our support. The idea is to exchange letters, emails and send a monthly care package to the soldiers. I hope to concentrate on quality and send things which will help them to survive, stay safe and keep morale high. The groups who initially started out performing this kind of service for our troops have tended to fade away as the length of service increases, now more than ever our soldiers need to know they still have people at home who appreciate the sacrifice and effort made on our behalf. I'd like to get as many participants as possible, I'll arrange bulk purchases and shipping for the care packages, by participating you would be willing to contribute monthly. My goal is to try and keep the overall cost down while still providing the troops with something special. ------------------------------- From the LT of the group I've made contact with: My platoon would be honored. We are happy to share with you stories and photos from our deployment. I will let you know that we are projected to be headed home in the Spring...so if you are looking for a platoon to have a year-long relationship with, we will be back in the states sometime between March-June of 2009...just so you know. Beyond that, we are honored to have citizens who appreciate what we do and want to help us - we do what we do for you. Our platoon consists of 21 individuals, all of them heroes. 5 of my soldiers are infantryman, and 15 are tankers. I am an infantryman as well. This current fight has created the need for such "mix-and-match" forces. The are from all over the United States. 1st Platoon, Delta Company, 1-66 Armor (Combined Arms Battalion), 1st Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infnatry Division is known as the "Renegades." We are currently operating in eastern Baghdad, an area called New Baghdad, along the Diyala River. The platoon spends most of its time at a smaller base we call a Combat Outpost or "COP." Our battalion is based out of Forward Operating Base (FOB) Rustamiyah. We are a battalion out of 4th Infantry Division currently assigned to a brigade of the 10th Mountain Division for operational purposes. -------------------- This group is deployed through March which makes for a perfect chance to try this thing out and make sure we can keep up our end and gather enough participants. If things go well the LT can hand us off to the unit replacing his. These guys are not lounging in the green zone, they are forward deployed in an area which does see a lot of action. The accommodations are very rough in the FOBs and anything we can do to make life easier on them will be greatly appreciated. The troops will share stories, photos and I plan to send some flags and other items for them to sign, photograph and send back to be given to the participating members here at FT. These units are the new "mixed unit" types with soldiers from blended companies which include armor, infantry, special forces and even multiple branches (army, marines and navy). I can't say enough on what a great thing it is to participate in something like this. These people are true heroes, quality people and you could end up making the kind of friend for life you'll value. Some items will require being purchased, others would just require some time and effort. Items I have in mind to send: Scorpion UV lights (pocket lights which make the local scorpions glow, making them easy to see - these are a huge problem for the troops as they hide everywhere they can, especially in boots, clothes, bedding, etc. Magazines, electronic and print format (sports, girls, womens magazines, cars, etc) Weapons and shooting magazines, catalogs Home town news and news papers, recordings of sporting events, TV shows, etc Music CDs, recordings of radio shows Depending on how things go and if needed we might gather air mile donations for wounded troops (they have to pay to fly home), pre paid cell phones / minutes, pre paid long distance cards. I'll be looking for ideas from the members of our support team and well as from the troops and their COC. Please reply if you want to join up and PM me an email addy to contact you with. I'll be setting up a dedicated email list as well as keeping the FT membership updated via the forum. Thanks, Infotech

I read somewhere last week that the troops are in desperate need of a good lubricant for their weapons. The article said that the government issued "CLP" works good as a lub. but it actually attracts sand and grit to the inner workings of a weapon, causing them to jam. The article also said that for some time family members and care package senders had been sending an alternate lubricant called "Militex" (I think that the name), but that the military stopped letting people send it in these packages. Probably because it's not a military developed lub and CLP is. I've looked elsewhere for some news about this but haven't been able to find anything concerning this problem. Next time contact is made with the LT, could you ask him about it, maybe he'll be able to shed some light on it. I figured a dependable weapon lub that doesn't attract grit would be something that could be sent to our guys that would help them survive in the sandbox. Thank you, Thomas

Everyone should pool their contacts and see if we can round up some better M9 magazines (or at least the better springs for the mags), and send them down there. Alot of those troops need to depend on their sidearm sometimes more than their primary weapon. The M9 magazines down there are a joke, so if we can get them some decent ones, it would be a godsend to them. Also, maybe send some silicone cloths down there, and some anti-tilt followers for their M16/M4 magazines.
+1! Great idea. Count the Dillinger household in. We already support Wounded Warrior, now the UFC Fight for the Troops, and I have a thread about sending DVD's and popcorn to the troops. HOWEVER - Since 09.12.2001 I personally have not had to be subjected to any foreign entity making an attack on my beloved US soil. The reason for that is because we have the best damn fighting force on the planet and they do the job better than anyone. We here in the JD household never forget that we can get up, go to the store, or the movies, or just lounge away the day at home because of our brave men and women in uniforms. I know that times are tight - but some of the things that make a world of difference to these guys are easy to get, and free. Hell, you can record local radio shows that stream live on the internet from hundreds of radio stations around the country and mark them as such on a case of CD's. Imagine being from Seattle, where I am locally, and being stationed halfway around the world, but being able to hear 4 hours of a local morning radio show that you remember loving when you were "home". That could be PRICELESS to one soldier and would cost you almost nothing. Everyone should please consider joining up for this noble cause. JD
Hang on, did you just say that wounded soldiers had to pay their own way home?? Seriously? If that is accurate (and I dont doubt you), then its disgraceful. That being said I think this is a great idea. However, I am wondering about the commitment. Are you looking for a constant stream of items/correspondence, or one time, or? As for gun magazines, I have tons and would be more than happy to share. In fact I get piles of mags (drives the husband nuts ) How would this be coordinated? would everyone send to one stateside location for delivery or would we send individual packages from us directly to the platoon? Sorry for so many questions, this is a new idea for me.
count me in as well, just let me know
I think the best idea is to find out what the guys in their platoon need/want. Us trying to pick brand "X" mag over something they know and love would be welcome, but fall short of what we are trying to do for them. If they want gun magazines, let's find out which ones. Let's face it, sending them Maxim when they want Playboy is going to fall short as well. Sounds like the LT is more than on board with the plan - have him put up a sign up sheet, or maybe he knows what his men want, a good leader always does. JD
Infotech Posted:
I'm waiting on the LT to respond, I asked him to clarify some of the discussion items and to give us a list of what they need. I saw the report on troops having to pay airfare on the news so I know there was something to it at one point but as I said, I have no idea if it's still an issue, if it ever was a real issue and was misreported or if it was some other variation. At this point I don't think we have enough people interested to be able to do this, hopefully more will come on board. I really don't want to have to tell the LT if that's the case. I'll update everyone as soon as I know something.

The future of TV interface
Smart TVs, Wi-Fi cameras take centre stage at CES.

Smart televisions have become even more intelligent, transforming your living room into the ultimate home entertainment and information hub.
A Samsung employee demonstrates the S-Recommendation feature of the 2013 smart TV by speaking into a remote control.
Smart TVs now can take you online, show videos from YouTube, initiate video calls and play your entire media library _ and all in three dimension.
At the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2013 in Las Vegas last week, Samsung unveiled its latest innovative smart TV, promising to use voice and face recognition to let you control your TV without any remote controls.
"This is the future of TV interface," said Tim Baxter, president for consumer electronics at Samsung Electronics America.
Mr Baxter said technologies for smart TV now can understand what users like and make recommendations for them by analysing a user's viewing history and programme popularity before releasing his or her favourite TV programmes.
Samsung developed its recommendation function for its new 2013 smart TV products. It provides personalised menus for on-air, on-demand and application content for each viewer.
Mr Baxter said the changing consumer behaviour of using multiple screens for TV, tablet, notebook or smartphone are driving the explosion in content.
For instance, he noted viewers can search and schedule content on a tablet, view content remotely or mirror the Smart TV on a tablet to take the content with them around the home.
The existing smart TV has the ability to update the new 2013 features by using an evolution kit, a small electronic device attached to the back of the TV.
This is the first time smart TV allows upgradable ability which drives consumers to make buying decisions faster, said Mr Baxter.
Samsung is also introducing its new flagship F8000 LED television, its first quad-core processor television boasting a capacity three times faster than existing ones.
The company also debuted its new OLED TV F9500 model, the world's first TV offering multi-view features, enabling two people to watch different HD content simultaneously on the same screen. This feature is enabled by Samsung's special 3D glasses.
Samsung's 110-inch TV set, touted as the world's largest ultra HDTV, was also the highlight at the CES this year. The product was selected as the best innovative product in 2013.
The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), the organiser of CES, said ultra HDTV is a key emerging technology trend, with more than 10 companies displaying their products at this year's show.
The CEA forecasts internet-connected TVs or smart TVs will see strong growth this year, with unit sales reaching 12.3 million, up from 9.2 million in 2012.
MarketsandMarkets, the business research firm, forecasts the value of the overall smart TV market will reach $265 billion by 2016, growing at a compound rate of 17%.
Unit shipment will top 153 million units by that year, up from 64 million in 2011 and at a compound rate of 19%.
Android-enabled digital cameras equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity were another highlight at the CES.
Compact cameras increased their ability to compete with smartphones, enabling users to directly send high-resolution photos or clips from Wi-Fi-connected cameras.
It also allows users to share or upload shots and clips on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter.
Samsung demonstrated its Galaxy camera featuring the Android 4.1 operating system and 4G connectivity.
The South Korean company also showcased the NX3000, the world's first one-lens 3D system.
It has the capacity to capture both stills and 1080p full HD video in 3D quality.
Polaroid also launched the world's first Android-powered compact interchangeable lens camera with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity.

@ Leon HAHA:
Ok, got your point about social hierarchy and obedience to authority, but what about when Confucius said that the prince (the governors) had an obligation to be responsible to his subjects, and he was to practice according to values of virtue?
There is no such thing as reviving an ideology, specifically with virtue ethics the one Confucius was concerned with, it has always been to demanding and too binding. I don't know if you can read Chinese, but a major modern day Chinese philosopher, Qian Wenzhong, has pointed out that if you strictly abide with traditional philosophical principles, you will lose out 90% of the time (link given below). History has proven that philosophy is not futile in producing political motivation.

Shumlin draws heat for child care funding proposalBy DAVE GRAM
The Associated Press | January 16,2013AP PHOTO
Sen. Anthony Pollina, P-Washington, is joined by other lawmakers at a news conference Tuesday in Montpelier.MONTPELIER — When it comes to Gov. Peter Shumlin's plan to take money from a tax program that helps low-income workers and put it into child care subsidies, Dawn Gingras understands both sides of the equation.
The 42-year-old Sheffield resident says state and federal earned income tax credits combined are a much needed supplement to her annual income from a job at a daycare center. She nets about $8,000 a year that she can add to her income of less than $25,000.
But at her job at Cherry Street PlayCare in St. Johnsbury, Gingras says she sees parents every day struggling to pay their share — after the state subsidy — to keep their kids in daycare so they can work.
"It's going to hurt the low-income worker," she said Tuesday of Shumlin's plan to reduce what the state spends each year on the earned income tax credit from about $26 million to about $11 million. "That's how I pay my property taxes."
Since the governor proposed in his inaugural address last week to shift about $17 million from the tax credit program to child care subsidies, legislators and others have complained the plan would help poor working families by taking from other poor working families.
Some Progressive and Democratic lawmakers took aim Tuesday at the Democratic governor's proposal, saying at a news conference that they were fully on board with more support for child care but want to see the money come from somewhere else. They want the earned income tax credit to be left alone.
Under the program, lower-income taxpayers get big tax refunds, often larger than the taxes they paid.
"The earned income tax credit is one of our most effective anti-poverty programs," said Sen. Anthony Pollina of Washington County. "Diverting money from this important benefit is a tax increase on over 40,000 Vermonters who are least able to afford it: lower income people, working families, and others struggling to make ends meet."
Rep. Chris Pearson, a Burlington Progressive, said he wants the state to have a discussion about possible new taxes, including a tax on the extraction of natural resources, which Vermont does not have.
A top aide to the governor replied to the criticism by saying Shumlin is trying to invest limited state dollars in the most effective way.
Human Services Secretary Douglas Racine said too many parents drop out of the workforce because they can't afford the child care they need to allow them to work. Increasing child care subsidies, something state officials have talked about for years, would help many of them stay in the workforce and would mean their children could enroll in high-quality programs, he said.
"If we don't help those families get their kids off to a good start, we pay for it down the road" in lower educational levels and rising prison populations, he said.MORE IN Vermont NewsLong-time city employee casualty of Barre budget process Full StoryMONTPELIER A new legislative report says the livable wage needed to make it in Vermont...

What is Addiction Counselling?
Addiction Counselling focuses on the issues of dependency and/or abuse with drugs, alcohol, food, sex, gambling, work, exercise, sex and relationships.
Clients who struggle with addiction and compulsive behaviours will have a preoccupation with more than one addiction at any given time and will need to work through these issues to gain a structured way to work on themselves on a deeper level. Our therapists can help support you with a wide range of addiction issues.
People who experience addiction issues may at times abstain from using a substance or compulsively obsessing with a particular behaviour, however, this tends to be short lived and without a structured programme they may relapse.
Our addiction counsellors are also experienced with the philosophy of the Minnesota model and the Twelve Step Programme.
£50 – £130 for 50 minutes

To make an appointment to see one of our addiction counsellors, please call the reception team on 020 8673 4545 or email email@example.com. We are open seven days a week.

I brewed a porter this weekend. First time I have ever used a pH meter to measure the mash pH. Thought I would share the results. Original water (ppm): Ca: 4 Mg: 1 Alkalinity as CaCO3: 22 In 5 gallons of mash water I adjusted to: (Added 3g of CaCl2) Ca: 47 Mg: 1 Alkalinity as CaCO3: 22 This gives an RA of -14. Two commonly used water chemistry guides: Palmer: Using Morey this is a 31 SRM beer. Plamer calls for an RA of 256 to 315. To get the low end you would need 8g of baking soda in the mash. Tasty Brew 2.0: 15.5 lbs total grain, 2.5lbs specialty non-roasted, 1.25lbs roasted. 31 SRM. Predicts a mash pH of 4.96 and I would need 8g of baking soda in the mash to get a pH of 5.2 which is my target. Both those leave me with about 73ppm of sodium in the final beer. So not bad, below the threshold for a salty taste. I am lucky I have <10ppm Na in my tap water. If I did not have a pH meter, I could probably add this and not worry too much. Actual brew day: dough in, pH: 5.15 add 2g baking soda, pH 5.27 I let it sit for 5 minutes and checked it again: 5.24 and this is where it stayed for the length of the mash. So a RA of 25 is sufficient for brewing a 31 SRM beer. I know others have said they have done similar things, but I guess it is nice to confirm this myself. I hesitate to draw any other conclusions from this being that it was just 1 sample. But, I am going to really try to take the mash pH for every beer from now on.
I checked mine for the first time this weekend. The ez water calculator estimated the ph @ 5.25, my new meter read 5.3, kinda cool.
interesting. so what would a RA of 287 do? i'm brewing a porter this weekend and my tap has a RA of 287
Awesome thread. This PH problem with dark grains is amplified in PM brews. Having gone back to PM's I put baking soda in any dark brew. I believe this is the source of the extract TWANG myself, which I have eliminated.

MOSCOW. Sept 5 (Interfax) – The state-owned corporation, Rostekhnologii, will receive from the government not only Vladivostok Avia, but also other Far-Eastern airline companies, Dalavia and Sakhalinskiye Aviatrassy, after they were rejected by Aeroflot which until recently was planning to set up a Far-Eastern subsidiary, said Alexander Misharin, Deputy Transport Minister.

MS Responds To Vista's Network / Audio Problems
It's not configured right (528 comments)
It's not totally broken, your problem about slow speeds when copying files over network drives is due to a "feature" of vista that compresses the files before transfer. Unless you have a ridiculously fast computer on a ridiculously slow connection, this is obviously a bad idea but for some reason Microsoft enabled it by default. Go look up how to disable "Remote Differential Compression".

I read through the other group buy thread. How did the previous group buys go with CMC? Is anyone planning on doing another group buy?
I'm down with a group buy!
"You can do anything you set your mind to when you have vision, determination, and an endless supply of beer."
There have been three group buys from the Denver area, so far. Each one was roughly six months apart. The latest was just about a month ago. I wouldn't think another group buy would happen before June. You are of course welcome to contact Colorado Malting Company direct to check out prices. You can start your own group buy for people in the Springs.
I'm in the Denver area, and I'd love to get in on a group buy from CMC. Let me know when/if this goes anywhere.
How much is involved in and group buy? What were some of the previos buys made? Does anyone know? I'm in SE Aurora by the way. Thanks
There's one currently going on here: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f174/den...in-buy-234282/
I'm down for the next one (should be around 1st of the year if the pattern holds?)
colorado malting company has a huge gluten free list of grains w/4 roasting options. even chocolate roasts for gluten free. they now sell to homebrewers and only have 5 lb minimum. Awesome.
There was a time when the group buy pricing was a great deal. It seemed like the last time around it was cheaper to just order a 50lb bag of Rahr online. At least that's what I've been doing for the past year or two. A 50lb bag of Rahr is around $50 delivered to my door. A lot easier to order straight to my door than trying to coordinate a pick up in Dener. Also it's nice getting it right away. I'm not sure if CMC's pricing has gotten any better or worse since the last go. I'm all for supporting local business but I have to be mindful of costs. It didn make sense for me to pay more to utilize a closer supply chain at a higher cost and longer lead time.
I am also in when a new buy comes along.

changing style to multiple targets (class, id ??)
I've been trying to find the answer, but none of them seems to fit my needs, so I'm asking for help now
Here's the thing...
I've got a huge table, dinamicaly created by php, but I can still put any tag (class, id, whatever) on those cells (about 2.000 cells). Imagine I want to change the font-color of all the cells with some tag (example: all the cells with "class=mouse" yould now have blue font)
Is there a away to do it without using "for" to visit every cells on the table?
I've been able to do something like that with this:
Code:function test() { if (!document.styleSheets) return; var theRules = new Array(); if (document.styleSheets[0].cssRules) theRules = document.styleSheets[0].cssRules else if (document.styleSheets[0].rules) theRules = document.styleSheets[0].rules else return; theRules[3].style.font = 'blue'; //Edited to reflect the example, no sure if it works }
Is there a way to change that utilizing tags like class or id?
Thanks for the help

If I understood you correctly, just specify this rule in your CSS and all cells of the table with id tbl will have your desired color without specifying class for each cell.
Code:#tbl td { color:blue; } ... <table id="tbl">

Mohamed Yousuf Naghi Motors, the importer of BMW cars in Saudi Arabia, has said that customers in the Middle East can now buy the all-new BMW X5 with a second engine variant, the BMW XDrive35i. This latest model joins the highly successful BMW X5 xDrive50i that was launched in the Middle East late last year. The BMW X5 xDrive35i engine features TwinPower Turbo technology with Twin Scroll turbocharger, direct injection system High Precision Injection, fully variable valve control (Valvetronic), and double Vanos variable camshaft timing. This delivers 306bhp to the X5's wheels and propels the vehicle from 0-60 mph in 6.5 seconds.
