For what it's worth, I think Emily (my name) is as fine a choice as your other names--it's just that people got tired of it. There is a little Emily in my son's day care, and she is beautiful and adorable and sweet as can be... and after all the negativity toward Emily on forums recently, I actually found it quite refreshing! Trends are always changing. Anyway, I say if you love it, use it! At least she will be younger than all the Emily's born from 1995-2005, so maybe there wouldn't be a ton in her classes.

Claire Estelle is my favourite out of three names. Claire is elegant, timeless, and seems strong yet in a quite dainty style. Even though Estelle isn't a favourite of mine she works well with Claire. Claire Estelle sounds very well together and feels very classic.

I like Emily and Claire pretty much equally anyway. I don't discount just on popularity.
Emily's been popular for so long I find it pretty evergreen. Not trendy. It's just that with all the Emilys, Emmas, and Ellas around, it's sounds you hear A LOT.
(I love Emily, I do not like Emma and I'm back and forth on Ella)

I miss my babies!!
I'm sorry you feel this way love but just think they are getting big and strong so you can cuddle and love them up. Try to relax or find a mini hobby to do till they come home. What about a collage or start their first year album. Plan a welcome home party for them or something. It will get better love. Keep us update on how they are doing!
KerryAnn & Chris married since 10.16.09
Zion Jeremiah 1.27.11 @ 8:35am 8lb 11.3 oz
CP 4.18.12 Isabelle Rose & Ivy Rae 1.15.13
I think I'm just getting worn out from the 45 min drive one way everyday too but I would drive all day if I had to just to see them for 10 mins. It doesn't matter to me but it gets tiring and the second I'm left alone at home I get really sad. I just really hate feeling this way. I hope it goes away quickly!
I am so sorry you are going through this. One of my older daughters was in the NICU for 6 weeks and it was so difficult. All I can say is that it will be over before you know it and don't hesitate to ask your doctor and the people in your life for help. The NICU nurses can be a great resource for support and encouragement too.
Sending many thoughts and prayers your way.
I am struggling with the same thing, my boys have been in the NICU for 2 weeks, it is getting hard. Especially since my smaller baby, has had some complications and set backs. I was hopeful both boys would be home before New Years, now I am not sure.

*smile* - That's wonderful! I'm happy for your family. Now .... how about that party ?!?

The Archdiocesan Classic Gymnasium (Croatian: Nadbiskupska klasična gimnazija s pravom javnosti, often referred to by the abbreviation NKG) is a Catholic high school located on 106 Voćarska Road in the neighborhood of Šalata in Zagreb, Croatia. The school implements a program highlighting the classical culture and history, having students learn the Latin and the Ancient Greek. The school promotes Catholicism and serves as a public preparatory school for the Interdiocesan Boys' Seminary, a seminary for future Catholic priests located in the same building complex.
The school was the successor to the Archdiocesan Lyceum. The Lyceum was founded in 1854 as a part of the Theology seminary. The school was founded in 1922 as the Archdiocesan Grand School (Croatian: Nadbiskupska velika gimnazija), a boys-only school. In 1931 its name was changed to the name it bears today. In 1948 the communist regime of Josip Broz Tito denied official recognition to the school due to its religious ties.[citation needed] The school didn't stop operating, though. A military hospital was built nearby on the same lot. In 1989 the hospital was moved to a new complex on the Gojko Šušak Avenue in Dubrava. Following the Croatian declaration of independence in 1991, the school was again officially recognized. From 2003 girls are allowed to enroll the school, which has previously been boys-only. This diffused its previous religious role as a place to educate future priests and deacons, although Catholicism and devotion to God is still strongly encouraged.[1]
The school is known in Croatia for having an observatory.[2] The school routinely publishes articles about celestial objects on its website.[3] The school website also displays a list of objects in the Messier catalogue.[4] The observatory building sports the Croatian coat of arms on its northern side, one of the rare Croatian signs that weren't taken down during the anti-nationalistic communist rule of Croatia.[5]

MLB: One week into S/T. No games yet and really hardly any news, but based on what you know, what is the biggest FA...Read More
Yeah, that's a picture of Bobby Petrino when he was just a little horn-dog...Boy, his dick really messed up his world...But Petrino, and his stupidity got enough attention last week...Fuck him! This week I'm going to write a bit about me... There's a major change happening in my life right now...You've all read plenty about me working at The Fish House...All total, I've spent 17 years working there...Mrs. Beeze and I met there...It's possible that we made our first born daughter there...Well, the big bosses upstairs have decided to start moving people around in the company...And I'm one of those people...After 17 years in The Fish House, they're kicking me over to one of their sister restaurants...I'm heading to one of their steak houses...Don't worry, I've cooked plenty of steaks at the Fish House, and other places...I'll be fine, except for the extra money I'll be spending in gas...I'm not happy about the move, but I'm holding back right now...Trying to be a good soldier... But my friends at the Fish House sent me off in style...Making me a cock and balls cake...Then handing me a bag of goodies...They gave me a ball gag...A candy cock ring...An English cock ring and ball cage...A butt plug...And lube...Where else can you get going away gifts like that...Luckily this weekend was the Mrs. and my anniversary! -Now onto sports...I wrote a couple days ago about THIS big loss to the Notre Dame Football team, and how it seems to be becoming a problem... -Then news broke that the Cleveland Indians were signing Johnny Damon...Seriously, WTF!?! Nothing says winning like a washed-up, 38 year old, rag-arm, outfielder, 10 years past his prime! They'd be better off signing an injured Grady Sizemore...Oh wait, they did that too! Of course they would do this, just days after I PRAISED them for locking up some of there young, core talent... -Now we hit the NHL...The playoffs started this past week, and so far the games have been action packed...But the discipline is a little fucked up...Saturday night Carl Hagelin threw this shot at Daniel Alfredsson... Hagelin got a 3 game suspension...Now the hit was a bit high, but it wasn't nearly as bad as a lot of shots I've seen this year...But even worse, this happened just days after Shea Weber slammed Henrik Zetterberg's face into the glass... All Weber got was a little fine...Are you fucking shitting me...That was ten times worse the Hagelin's hit...Besides the fact that Hagelin doesn't have any history of dirty hits or violence...While Weber is well known for his physical play, and isn't the cleanest guy in the league...This is some,fucked up, retarded bullshit here! -Speaking of fucked up, retarded bullshit...The stupid ass Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductions were this weekend...And this year was one of those special years were the ceremony is actually held in Cleveland, you know, the city were teh Hall of Fame is located...We're so privileged to be allowed to have the ceremony once every 3 years...Holy fuck, who made this anal rape filled deal... Then there is the fact that the local media can't control themselves when this happens...Each station has 4 reporters camped outside the same damn place...All going bat-shit crazy because one of the Rolling Stones showed up...Oh, look it's George Clinton and some B-listers...I can hardly fucking contain myself...I better break out that cock-ring and ball cage! By Saturday night, I was fucking over it...I took to Facebook to share my frustration..."I'm really fucking sick of all the local media outlets, and their non-stop Rock & Roll Hall of Fame coverage...1. Have you been there? It's over-priced and not very impressive...2. If the inductions are such a big deal, why the hell isn't it on TV anywhere...3. Enough with the Guns & Roses talk, and stupid Axl...They only released 3 albums, and only one of those was good...Yet Rush and their 19 studio albums, shit they released 2 in 1975, along with their multiple live albums, are not in yet...Axl, Slash, Duff, the junkie drummer, and insert rhythm guitarist, aren't even worthy of being roadies for Rush...The R&RHOF can suck my ass!" And I stand by every word I wrote there...Seriously, I went to the R&RHOF once...It cost way too much for what you get...I'll never spend another dime there again in my life...Seriously, Madonna, The Beastie Boys, Guns & Roses are in...But RUSH isn't...Shit, I hate KISS, but they should have been in long before the countless numbers of non-Rock & Roll acts...And ahead of G&R who have had much less of an impact on the industry then those douchebags KISS... And there are plenty of inductees that I wouldn't call Rock & Roll...More pop type stuff...And I have to ask, while not a fan of Chicago, they should be in there long before a lot of this other shit...And you know what, put Journey in there too...Mother fuckers were gods of the Rock Ballad and Stadium Anthems... All that bitching about the stupid R&RHOF has me angry as shit again...So I'll close with a picture of my little girl...Already in the 90th percentile in height, here she is trying to take her brothers old big-wheel for a spin... Have a week... The Beeze

The task of identifying the contract manufacturing organization (CMO)is beyond the scope of this article. Information about CMO selection may be available through networking with pharmaceutical colleagues or in trade journals (1–5).
Confidentiality agreement
The agreement must be a bilateral confidential disclosure agreement. This type of agreement provides for the sharing of information on a confidential basis between both companies. Both parties agree not to disclose the other's proprietary information to any third parties other than affiliated companies and consultancy firms that are bound to the terms of the confidentiality agreement.
The confidentiality agreement is approved and signed by senior management at both companies. Confirmation of an executed confidentiality agreement by the clinical manufacturing representative is important before exchanging information about the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), drug product, and manufacturing operation and performing a CGMP audit with the contractor.
Technical assessment
After the confidentiality agreement is signed, a technical assessment of the contract facility is recommended. The technical assessment can be performed by the clinical manufacturing representative and the formulator.
Of course, the most important aspect is to get a feeling for the type of working relationship the sponsor and the contractor will have (6). A good working relationship is especially important when the sponsor's long-term goal is to commercially manufacture the new drug product at the contract facility. This project involves the two companies working together through manufacturing clinical supplies, registration batches, technology transfer, process validation (7), and the US Food and Drug Administration preapproval inspection (8).
Ingredients InsiderCynthia ChallenerFDA Approves Novel Treatments in 2014
Better equipment and automated processes will be key. So, too, will the right way of approaching outsourcing relationships.
Data sharing and a common data model can improve CRO partnerships and trial results.
As CMOs shed their old toll processing role, sponsors can expect the right questions, proactive communication, and a firm grasp of risk management and tech transfer from contract service providers.

Sorrento (Neapolitan: Surriento) is a town and comune in the Metropolitan City of Naples, in Italy, with some 16,500 inhabitants. It is a popular tourist destination which can be reached easily from Naples and Pompeii, as it lies at the south-eastern end of the Circumvesuviana rail line. The town overlooks the Bay of Naples as the key place of the Sorrentine Peninsula, and many viewpoints allow sight of Naples itself, Vesuvius, and the Isle of Capri.
The Amalfi Drive (connecting Sorrento and Amalfi) is a narrow road that threads along the high cliffs above the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Ferry boats and hydrofoils provide services to Naples, Amalfi, Positano, Capri and Ischia. Sorrento's sea cliffs and luxury hotels have attracted notable people, including Enrico Caruso and Luciano Pavarotti.
Sorrento is famous for the production of limoncello, a digestif made from lemon rinds, alcohol, water and sugar. Other agricultural production includes citrus fruit, wine, nuts and olives. Wood craftsmanship is also developed.
The Roman name for Sorrento was Surrentum. Legends indicate a close connection between Lipara and Surrentum, as though the latter had been a colony of the former; and even through the Imperial period Surrentum remained largely Greek. The oldest ruins are Oscan, dating from about 600 BC. Before its control by the Roman Republic, Surrentum was one of the towns subject to Nuceria, and shared its fortunes up to the Social War; it seems to have joined in the revolt of 90 BC like Stabiae; and was reduced to obedience in the following year, when it seems to have received a colony.
Numerous sepulchral inscriptions of Imperial slaves and freedmen have been found at Surrentum. An inscription shows that Titus in the year after the earthquake of 79 AD restored the horologium (clock) of the town and its architectural decoration. A similar restoration of an unknown building in Naples in the same year is recorded in an inscription from the last-named town.
The most important temples of Surrentum were those of Athena and of the Sirens (the latter the only one in the Greek world in historic times); the former gave its name to the promontory. In antiquity, Surrentum was famous for its wine (oranges and lemons which are now widely cultivated there were not yet introduced in Italy in antiquity), its fish, and its red Campanian vases; the discovery of coins of Massilia, Gaul, and the Balearic Islands here indicates the extensive trade which it carried on.
The position of Surrentum was very secure, protected by deep gorges. The only exception to its natural protection was 300 metres (984 feet) on the south-west where it was defended by walls, the line of which is necessarily followed by those of the modern town. The arrangement of the modern streets preserves that of the ancient town, and the disposition of the walled paths which divide the plain to the east seems to date in like manner from Roman times. No ruins are now preserved in the town itself, but there are many remains in the villa quarter to the east of the town on the road to Stabiae, of which traces still exist, running much higher than the modern road, across the mountain; the site of one of the largest (possibly belonging to the Imperial house) is now occupied by the Hotel Victoria, under the terrace of which a small theatre was found in 1855; an ancient rock-cut tunnel descends hence to the shore. Remains of other villas may be seen, but the most important ruin is the reservoir of the (subterranean) aqueducts just outside the town on the east, which had no less than twenty-seven chambers each about 270 by 60 cm (106 by 24 in). Greek and Oscan tombs have also been found.
Another suburb lay below the town and on the promontory on the west of it; under the Hotel Sirena are substructions and a rock-hewn tunnel. To the north-west on the Capo di Sorrento is another villa, the so-called Bagni della Regina Giovanna, with baths, and in the bay to the south-west was the villa of Pollius Felix, the friend of Statius, which he describes in Silvae ii. 2, of which remains still exist. Farther west again are villas, as far as the temple of Athena on the promontory named after her at the extremity of the peninsula (now Punta Campanella). Neither of this nor of the famous temple of the Sirens are any traces existing.
According to the Greek historian Diodorus Siculus, Sorrento was founded by Liparus, son of Ausonus, who was king of the Ausoni and the son of Ulysses and Circe. The ancient city was probably connected to the Ausoni tribe, one of the most ancient ethnic groups in the area. In the pre-Roman age Sorrento was influenced by the Greek civilization: this can be seen in its plant and in the presence of the Athenaion, a great sanctuary, also, according to the legend, founded by Ulysses and originally devoted to the cult of the Sirens, hence Sorrento's name.
Sorrento became an archbishopric around 420 AD. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, it was ruled by the Ostrogoths and then returned to the Eastern Empire. The Lombards, who conquered much of southern Italy in second half of the 6th century, sieged it in vain.
In the following centuries the authority of the far Byzantium empire faded, Sorrento became an autonomous duchy. It fought against the neighbour/rival Amalfi and the Saracens, and in 1133 it was conquered by the Norman Roger II of Hauteville, and thenceforth Sorrento's history followed that of the newly created Kingdom of Naples (known to contemporaries as Kingdom of Sicily; it is dubbed Kingdom of Naples to distinguish it from the island-based polity).
On June 13, 1558 it was sacked by elements of the Ottoman navy under the command of Dragut and his lieutenant Piali, as part of the struggle between the Turks and Spain, which controlled the southern half of Italy at that time. 2,000 captives were reportedly taken away. This struggle was waged throughout the Mediterranean and lasted many decades. The attackers were not "pirates" as often characterized, though some may have been mercenaries from North Africa. The campaigns were conducted on direct orders of Sultan Suleiman.[1] The attack led to the construction of a new line of walls. The most striking event of the following century was the revolt against the Spanish domination of 1648, led by Giovanni Grillo. In 1656 a plague struck the city. However, Sorrento remained one of the most important centres of the southern Campania.
Sorrento entered into the Neapolitan Republic of 1799, but in vain. In the 19th century the economy of the city improved markedly, favoured by the development of agriculture, tourism and trade. A route connecting Sorrento to Castellammare di Stabia was opened under the reign of Ferdinand II (1830–1859).
In 1861 Sorrento was officially annexed to the new Kingdom of Italy. In the following years it confirmed and increased its status of one of the most renowned tourist destinations of Italy, a trend which continued into the 20th Century. Famous people who visited it include Lord Byron, Keats, Goethe, Henrik Ibsen and Walter Scott.
The two main processions that take place in Sorrento on Good Friday are the Procession of Our Lady of Sorrows (or the "Visit in the Sepulchres"), organised by the Venerable Arciconfraternita of Saint Monica[2] and the Procession of the Crucified Christ, organised by the Venerable Arciconfraternita of the Death.
The first procession takes place at 3:30 a.m. on Holy (Maundy) Thursday and involves hundreds of participants dressed in hooded white gowns. The Madonna is carried aloft in the procession and is accompanied by several religious articles as she searches the town looking for her son. The procession starts in Corso Italia, turns through Piazza Tasso, and then visits each of the town's churches—stopping in each one for a short ceremony. The Madonna is accompanied by aides carrying incense, and a large male choir and band. The procession concludes at 5:30 a.m.
The second procession occurs at 8 p.m. on Good Friday and reflects the Madonna's mourning as she finds her son dead. Hundreds of participants, dressed this time in hooded black gowns, march down Corso Italia and then wind through the smaller lanes of Sorrento. This second procession is much larger and better attended.

Sorrento experiences a Mediterranean climate (Köppen climate classification Csa).[3] with mild, wet winters and warm, dry summers. The mild climate and fertility of the Gulf of Naples made the region famous during Roman times, when emperors such as Claudius and Tiberius holidayed nearby.[4] Temperatures can get as high as 29 °C (84 °F) in April, as happened in 2013.[5]

Sorrento was the birthplace of the poet Torquato Tasso, author of the Gerusalemme Liberata. The town was quite famously featured in the early-20th-century song "Torna a Surriento" (Come Back to Sorrento) with lyrics by Giambattista De Curtis, brother of the song's composer, Ernesto De Curtis. In the 1920s, famous Soviet writer Maxim Gorky lived in Sorrento. In the 1940s, widely renowned astro-physicist Ian Dickson lived in Sorrento. He owned one of the most expensive houses on the bay of Naples. The local football team is Sorrento Calcio who play in the Stadio Italia, and have achieved promotion into Serie C1 of the Italian Football League.
After the song "Torna a Surriento", the second masterpiece, which has spread the fame of Sorrento in the world, is "Caruso", a song composed in Sorrento, in the summer of 1985, by the Bolognese singer-songwriter Lucio Dalla, whose fifty-years ties with Sorrento are described in the novel by the sorrentine writer, Raffaele Lauro, titled "Caruso The Song - Lucio Dalla and Sorrento", which will be released in December 2014.[7]
Sorrento is served by ferry or hydrofoil from Naples or Capri as well as by boat services from the ports of the Bay of Naples and the Sorrentine Peninsula. Naples is served by two ports, Mergellina and Molo Beverello. Sorrento is connected to Naples by the Circumvesuviana rail line. Friends of Sorrento[10] has details of buses serving Sorrento.
Sorrento is twinned with:
Much of the 2012 film Love Is All You Need is set in Sorrento.[15][16]
The song Sexy People (The Fiat Song) by Pitbull (rapper) and Arianna Bergamaschi uses parts of the song Torna a Surriento.
Sorrento, the suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia was named after the town.

Faith in the economy
- workplace chaplaincy
Workplace chaplains from across the country came together in Swanwick recently to look at the growing business of mission in the economy.
Industry Dice/Stuart Miles/freedigitalphotos.net
Together they were helping to develop a new vision for the Church's engagement with the economy and for the Industrial Mission Association (IMA), which exists to resource workplace chaplaincy and connect faith and work.
The conference attracted some high profile speakers, including John Ellis, the Moderator of the General Assembly of the URC, who formerly worked for the Bank of England, and the Rt Revd Peter Selby, former Bishop of Worcester, now part of the interim directing team at St Paul's Institute.
Participants took part in a series of workshops led by Tim Jenkins, Director of Great Transition Initiatives of the New Economics Foundation, and enjoyed after-dinner speakers from both the CBI and the TUC.
At the end of the conference, those present were sent out 'to live and work to God's praise and glory' by the Revd Phil Jump, Regional Minister Team Leader for the North Western Baptist Association.
His talk was titled 'Jerusalem, Judaea and Samaria.' (Acts 1:8) Jerusalem: it might be tough, dangerous and require sacrifice. Judaea: it might be routine and familiar. Samaria : it might even include bankers and other 'Samaritans'!
And the response to the disciples' question to Jesus, 'Will you at this time restore the Kingdom?' is in effect 'No, stop building ecclesiastical empires and get out there like chaplains to the farthest corners of the earth!'
IMA Moderator, the Revd Randell Moll, said, 'It is becoming very clear that chaplaincy, mission in the economy and workplace chaplaincy in particular, is increasing in popularity, not least through the enthusiasm and commitment of new teams of lay volunteers. The Church as a whole will surely rejoice at the vitality of this truly fresh expression of mission and ministry, and will want to support and resource it, so that these newer shoots will take root and flourish.
'As the economy is 24/7, so is our Christian discipleship. How do they connect? Many Christians spend much more of their time at work than at church. They seek support in making sense of the 21st century economic world in the light of their faith. Partnership between teams of workplace chaplains and local churches are trying together to meet this need.
'Support and resourcing by national and local churches, especially of key workplace chaplaincy posts, is now crucial for the opening up of this huge, timely and vital area of mission and ministry.'
The IMA is the only national ecumenical network for practitioners engaged in workplace chaplaincy, and mission in the economy as a whole. It provides a significant resource and it believes that mission in the economy, as a growing concern, must be owned and supported by the whole Church.

The second annual Summer in the City party at the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts again made the year's top ten parties (according to my careful calculations after attending over 300 parties). Held on Saturday, May 22nd, it attracted society, business leaders, music lovers... all in summer cocktail attire. Colorful ties and/or jackets on men, and if some women were slightly overdressed in formal dresses, they did keep to the idea of warm weather colors. The performances were stellar - The Miracles, Patti LePone, and Little Richard this year.
Laurel House battered women's and children's shelter held a fundraising dinner at the Philadelphia Country Club in Gladwyne on Friday, May 14th. The theme was An Evening with Friends. Eagles coach Andy Reid and his wife Tammy were honorary co-chairs.
The Settlement Music School held their 96th annual gala, themed the Speakeasy Spectacular, on Saturday, April 17th at the Loew's Hotel. Settlement Music School is the largest community-based school of the arts in the country. It has seven area locations that serve over 8,000 students of all abilities without regard to age, race or financial circumstances. They award more than $1 million a year in financial aid to students in need.
The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia held their annual Daisy Day luncheon on Wednesday, April 14th at the Bellevue Hotel. This year's fashion designer guest was Oscar de la Renta, every bit as debonair in person as he looks in our photo.

Deserts are baking hot, with no water. The Antarctic is freezing cold, with no plants. No two places are the same, and every place changes with the seasons.
So even if an animal can survive in one place, there's always another problem around the corner.
Yet wherever you go on Earth, you will find something living there. All plants and animals have certain features, called adaptations, to help them survive the conditions where they live. For instance, in the frozen Arctic, a polar bear has thick fur to keep it warm and broad paws for walking on snow. Adaptation is the solution to the problems of survival.

Remove faulty color profiles
I had this problem with browsing file versions (the time machine universe). For me the trick was to remove bad color profiles. Somehow OSX added two color profiles to my system on its own initiative, but they were no match with my MBP. In the Displays preference pane I had three default profiles for my MBP display and a couple more for my other displays. Two profiles had the exact same name and clicking the second of those two was impossible. The selection auto-jumped to the top of the list.
In /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays I had my regular profiles (including the good Color-LCD...icc) and the two faulty ICC's. Removing those 2 equally named profiles fixed the problem for me. Now the graphics chips auto switch without visual difference. |

thanks random4t4x14
I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro with an OCZ Vertex 4 SSD and got this problem too. I experience the change in color when opening apps like Keynote or OmniGraffle (with a document open)
Resetting the SMC worked for me. Thanks random4t4x14 |

I just started having this happen after a clean install of ML on a new SSD. Here's (I think) how I fixed it. I was trying so many things, so I apologize if this doesn't exactly work for you. But it's definitely possible to get auto-graphics switching without the color-temp changing.
1. With no other programs open (after a fresh reboot is probably best), calibrate your monitor as you like it under System Prefs -> Display -> Color 2. Turn off auto-graphics switching under System Prefs -> Energy Saver 3. Reboot 4. Navigate to /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays and delete any profile that isn't your newly calibrated display profile. (In my case, two "Display" profiles were showing up) 5. Reboot 6. Turn on auto-graphics switching under System Prefs - Energy Saver 7. Reboot I think that should do it. I realized that it was impossible to separately calibrate the discrete graphics card because whenever it opened up the calibration application, the computer would switch back to the integrated graphics card. |

Also check auto launch apps - disable auto launch chrome worked for me
I just had this problem, and was searching for help.
In particular, the color temp of my monitor was changing when different apps launched. For example, I noticed it every time I launched Photoshop CC. Resetting the auto launch apps via system preferences seems to have fixed it for me. Chrome somehow got set to autolaunch, and I believe was messing up the monitor color. Quick guide here on stopping programs from auto-launch: http://machicolate.wordpress.com/201...ly-on-startup/ I also logged out and back in, and that may play some part as well. However, logging out and back in without disabling the auto launch of Chrome made no difference at all. So that has to be connected. |

Resetting the SMC fixes the problem for me
The blue tint problem is also happening on a clean install of Yosemite 10.10.1. I have a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro with a classical HDD drive (so the issue is not SSD related for me).
The issue happened every time the GPU changed (launching Photoshop for example). Quote:

Found this because I was having this issue. I was surprised to see that it was such an old thread. The simplest solution that I found (out of all the replies) is to simply log out of your profile and then log back in. Not a shut down, or a restart. I also had the "reopen windows..." box unchecked (not sure if that would have any affect, but it's worth mentioning). I have a 15" mid-2010 MacBook Pro.
This solution was discovered earlier in the thread, but I didn't see a reply with it in a while, so I decided to bump it. Hope it helps. |

'Girls' Cast Clashes With Reporter, Considers 'Golden Girls' Comparisons
Creator and star Lena Dunham gets put on the defense by the suggestion of gratuitous nudity at their TCA panel, though the mood lightens when talk turns to Betty White and Bea Arthur.
At the end of a day that started with one reporter dismissing MSNBC's Tamron Hall for opening up about the murder of her sister, the cast of HBO's Girls walked out onstage at the Television Critics Association to another abrasive journalist expressing his confusion over (and apparent dislike of) Lena Dunham's frequent nudity.
Though the question was directed at the creator and star, she had little chance to respond given how much it riled executive producer Judd Apatow. "Do you have a girlfriend?" he asked the man. "Does she like you?"
STORY: HBO Renews Girls for Season 4
Dunham, who handled the awkward opening with a smile, offered that the comedy has always been about realism -- hence the candid depictions of sex. "If you're not into me, that's your problem," she added. Fellow executive producer Jenni Konner briefly revived the topic later in the panel when the reporter in question caught her eye -- "I'm in a rage spiral!" -- but the rest of the 20-or-so minutes was fittingly funny and civil.
When talk turned to criticism for the second run, Konner did say that they are aware of fan gripes. "We heard that criticism, and there were parts of it that we agreed with," she said. "We are trying to address it still."
They will have more than just this season to explore. HBO kicked off the panel with an expected renewal for a fourth run -- which might give the characters time to get their acts together. Dunham, who seems very conscious that their underdog status might be frustrating to some, still appreciates the reality of the failures. "I feel sad when they struggle," she said. "We get to depict these girls in all of their flawed glory."
On a much lighter note, Dunham and co-stars Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke and Zosia Mamet tried to identify which character on The Golden Girls their alter egos most resemble. (For those curious: Shoshanna is Sophia, Marnie is Rose, Jessa is Blanche and Hannah is Dorothy.)
"I get tired working an eight-hour day," said Dunham, in awe of The Golden Girls. "Those ladies were not young. And they were keeping it fresh on set. I want what they're having."

Apparently the outrageous claim from the ELSPA's Intellectual Property Crime Unit manager, John Hillier, that 90% of North American DS owners are pirates, was outrageous to him as well. A spokesperson for the organization told GamesIndustry.biz that the quote attributed to him in the incendiary Sunday Post article was inaccurate or even fabricated.
According to the spokesperson, "[John] didn't quote The Sunday Post on any figures whatsoever." The spokesperson asserted that the Sunday Post conflated quotes from Hillier about R4 sales in the UK with an article from Singapore about DS piracy in that country (hence the 90% quote, which is still likely to be ridiculous). The specific article isn't named, but we believe it's this one. It's amazing that a quote about the UK plus an article about Singapore somehow generated a statistic about North America. But who cares about facts when you're busy alarming the public?

A Day in the Life was an American rock band formed in Dayton, Ohio, in 2001. In 2003, the band changed its name to Hawthorne Heights.
They were formed by JT Woodruff, Jesse Blair, Andy Saunders, Josh Bethel, and Andy Lazier. They took their name from the popular Beatles song "A Day in the Life". Their first record was a demo entitled Four Bullets for One Girl, which sold its 500 copy run in 2 months.[1] This brought them to the attention of Confined Records, with which they released an album entitled Nine Reasons to Say Goodbye. Finally, they released a 6-song EP entitled Paper Chromatography: The Fade from Dark to Light in the winter of 2003 before becoming the more successful Hawthorne Heights.[1] Later, after the band had already signed to Victory Records, Radio Eat Radio Records re-released 5 of these songs on a compilation entitled From Ohio with Love. In 2003, lead vocalist/rhythm guitarist JT Woodruff changed the name of the band to Hawthorne Heights. The first song the band wrote after the change is entitled "The Transition".

A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
Will Value-Added Data Help Move Out Ineffective Teachers?
In this article in Educational Researcher, Marcus Winters (University of Colorado/ Colorado Springs) and Joshua Cowen (University of Kentucky) examine the efficacy of using value-added data to dismiss ineffective teachers. Drawing on retrospective test-score data from Florida, they come to two conclusions:
• First, students assigned to teachers who would have been dismissed one or two years earlier based on a single year of value-added data did significantly worse than students assigned to teachers with more positive data. In other words, value-added data can predict many teachers' future classroom performance.
• Second, the way value-added evaluation is being implemented – waiting for two consecutive years of data before taking job action – undercuts its effectiveness and results in very few ineffective teachers being dismissed. "Consecutive-year policies that set relatively low percentile cutoffs for satisfactory performance will tend to remove very few teachers because even very bad teachers might score above the threshold in 1 of 2 years due to random fluctuation in the estimates of their effectiveness… and many ineffective teachers will remain unidentified," say Winters and Cowen. "[O]ur evidence also indicates that no system of evaluation will eliminate flaws from the measure of teacher ability."
Winters and Cowen conclude that implementing value-added evaluation of teachers will result in few if any improvements in the quality of teaching.

The complaint alleges that the Company made false/misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material information related to the Company's projected sales, financial prospects, and adoption of the Company's SAPIEN transcatheter aortic heart valve. In particular, it is alleged that the Company knew but concealed that: a) due to physicians' concerns over the risks and complexity of the procedure for implanting SAPIEN, adoption of SAPIEN was weaker than the Company claimed; b) the Company's outlook for sales and earnings per share was significantly weaker than suggested to investors; and c) as a result of the aforementioned, the Company lacked a reasonable basis for its statements relating to the Company's operations, forecasts, and outlook.

Photos: The 11th annual Colorado Dragon Boat festival
Posted by mleyba on 2011-07-31 19:37:51 tags: Photo
The 11th annual Colorado Dragon Boat festival at Sloan's Lake in Denver, with temperatures soaring into the triple digits. Dragon boat racing is over 2,000 years old and is steeped in Chinese tradition. At the festival there are two types of boats that were used this year. The Taiwan style boat aka Flag Catching boats, where boats race to capture a flag at the end. They race in pairs. The second style is the international standard Hong Kong style boat where three boats race against each other. There were 3 different divisions in each category. Also at the festival was live music and dance, cultural education, a marketplace and lots of vendors selling food and traditional wares.

Katy Perry Moves On To A New Man, Florence + the Machine Guitarist Robert Ackroyd
During the final weekend of the Coachella Music Festival in California, Katy Perry started up the relationship rumor mill yet again. This time it's not a supermodel, but a band member of Florence + the Machine.
Katy's first known romance after her split from husband Russell Brand was with 22 year old French supermodel Baptiste Giabiconi, which turned out to be a short one month fling.
One of the first signs that their relationship was not going to last was the fact that she insisted that she was still single multiple times on her Twitter account.
About a month after the world heard about Baptiste, now she has been calling someone else her "boyfriend" and is being very comfortable with him in public, most recently at Coachella this past weekend.
Perez Hilton told B96/Chicago this morning, "It seems like Katy Perry might have a new guy in her life. According to reports, she's been quietly dating Robert Ackroyd, no, he's not Dan Aykroyd's son. He's a band member in Florence + the Machine. The two of them went semi-public last weekend at the Coachella music festival. So, congratulations to her!"
The Florence + the Machine guitarist mentioned Katy in a tweet after the first weekend of Coachella, and he said that he pretty much had the "best weekend ever."
Best Coachella ever. Scratch that, best weekend ever. Dre, Snoop, Pac, Nate, Fiddy & KP.

In other Katy Perry news, she recently shot the official movie poster for her movie entitled "Katy Perry: Part of Me 3D," which hits theaters July 4th weekend.

I believe there is a bug in WordPress, I have checked the web version of the repository to see if I can find this reported anywhere, to no avail. Please, if this is not the right place to post, or if the issue is already reported somewhere, please disregard this.
In line 1153 of wp-includes/functions.php
$filename = str_replace('%', '', sanitize_title_with_dashes( $filename ) ) . $ext;
unless I'm mistaken should read:
$filename = str_replace('%', '', sanitize_file_name( $filename ) ) . $ext;
This solved a problem for me where any file I uploaded that had a period in the name (other than for the extension) was getting dropped. For example, test.tar.gz becomes testtar.gz and myfile.html.snippet becomes myfilehtml.snippet.
Again, if I need to report this elsewhere, please let me know. I didn't really see a way to report a bug in Trac; maybe I'm just not looking in the right place.
Edit: I'm using WordPress MU 1.5.1, the latest version as of this posting.
