Re: How to have a search by word(s) Ahh, no, i think the issue will be that the sword path won't be properly set to that location on a Mac... I'm away from my laptop ATM, but can look into it tomorrow for you? Otherwise, you need to set the sword path to point to the location of your modules and then you should be able to run that on the command line. :) ---------------------------------------- PocketSword Developer http://twitter.com/PocketSword |

AMD Fusion APU Zacate Preview Planned Next Week
AMD Fusion APU Zacate Preview Planned Next Week
Nathan Eddy
Posted 2010-09-10
AMD is to preview its Fusion APU, codenamed Zacate, in San Francisco, while rival Intel plans an unveiling of its Sandy Bridge chip.
Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices announced next week in San Francisco the company would unveil the first North America public demonstrations of its Fusion Accelerated Processing Unit, known as Zacate. The APU is a dual-core, 18-watt TDP processor containing discrete-level graphics capabilities on die. AMD said the processor is designed to "dramatically improve" the user's PC experience by offering full HD streaming online video, a DirectX 11-compliant platform and accelerated Internet browsing capability. The demonstrations will run from Monday, Sept. 13 through Wednesday, Sept. 15. The accelerated Internet browsing demonstration will show how Zacate-based platforms support the future of GPU-enabled Web browsing today and how these platforms perform side-by-side against currently available AMD- and Intel processor-based notebooks. Senior executives and engineers responsible for AMD Fusion APUs will be on hand for the event, the release stated.
"Targeting value and mainstream notebooks and desktops, 'Zacate' APU-based platforms bring many of the vivid digital computing experiences once reserved for high-end PCs into the opening price points of the mainstream segment," a company release stated. The company recently
about the processor during Berlin's IFA 2010 consumer electronics show. The dual low-power CPU cores, codenamed Bobcat, provide mainstream CPU performance in less than one-half the die area and a fraction of the power, according to director of Fusion marketing John Taylor.
He wrote the APU itself would come in two flavors based on performance and low power draw: Zacate, about
the size of a one-euro coin
, designed for ultrathin, mainstream, and value notebooks as well as desktops and all-in-ones and a 9-watt APU codenamed Ontario for netbooks and small form factor desktops and devices. "Both low-power APU versions feature two Bobcat x86 cores and fully support DirectX11, DirectCompute ( the Microsoft programming interface for GPU computing) and OpenCL (cross-platform programming interface standard for multicore x86 and accelerated GPU computing)," Taylor wrote. "Both also include UVD dedicated hardware acceleration for HD video including 1080p resolutions." Intel CEO Paul Otellini is opening up a new battle in the never-ending war between the two companies by holding a rival demonstration, also in San Francisco, at the company's Intel Developer Forum. The chip, Intel's first to offers graphics capabilities built into the processor, is codenamed Sandy Bridge. "Increasingly the single-chip device for all these gadgets and widgets and cars and TVs is where the volume is going to be," Otellini said in an
with the Wall Street Journal. AMD also unveiled the newest member of its ATI FirePro family, the FirePro V9800, featuring support for up to six monitors. With an estimated retail price of $3,499, the V9800 offers six Mini DisplayPort outputs, built using ATI's Eyefinity technology and providing desktop resolution of up to 5760 x 2160, 4GB of GDDR5 memory and a 1.25x increased compute stream processor performance and an increase of 2.27x in single- and double-precision performance, according to a company release.
Powered by 1,600 stream processors, V9800 offers support for stereo 3D capability, supporting active shutter glasses via the on-board 3-pin connector, as well as passive and auto-stereoscopic displays and projectors. Additionally, AMD said with support for the FirePro S400 synchronization module, up to four V9800 graphics cards could be synchronized (genlock, framelock), delivering up to 24 synchronized outputs from a single computer. The senior manager of 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) applications 3D and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) applications specialist at Dassault Syst???mes, Jerome Maillot, called the ability to drive six display outputs simultaneously and achieve such a large image on a very high resolution display a great step forward for engineering collaboration. "Sharing a 3D model at full scale and achieving a significant cost reduction at the same time sounds like a dream, yet it is a reality," Maillot said. "It is clear the FirePro V9800 professional graphics card has delivered the high level of technology our company has come to expect."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
IRS tightens grip on snowbirds, ex-pats in Canada
Read this column if you or someone you know was born in the United States, holds a green card (work permit), travels to the U.S. for an extended period in the winter, or has another close connection to America.
The American Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is more interested in you than ever.
We have written in the past about the need for U.S. citizens living in Canada to file their American non-resident tax return, and for Canadian snowbirds to file IRS Form 8840, establishing they have a closer connection to Canada and therefore do not need to file a U.S. return.
Today's column moves from the reminder and suggestion made in the past, toward an urgent appeal to begin complying with the IRS requirements rather than risk having them approach you first. The penalties and extra tax (when they deny your available credits and exemptions) can be horrendous.
Here are reasons why compliance has become more imperative than ever.
On March 18, U.S. President Barack Obama signed into law the HIRE Act, ostensibly aimed at job creation. However, one of the ways to pay for the $18-billion cost is to tighten the reporting requirements for "U.S. persons" with interests in foreign accounts.
You guessed it -- an American citizen living in Canada is a U.S. person. A Canadian citizen with a green card, or one who spends more than 183 days a year in the U.S., also becomes a U.S. person for tax purposes.
Shocking to me is the fact Canadian financial institutions are now going to be compelled to report all the personal information of any U.S. persons holding accounts with them. Starting in 2013, your bank or investment firm (if it intends to do business with any U.S. person) will have to ask every account holder if they have a connection to the U.S. and, if they do, report their information to the IRS.
If a person refuses to answer the question or refuses to provide information ("a recalcitrant account holder"), the bank will be required to withhold 30 per cent of any investment earnings on the accounts and hold that for the IRS.
There are many American citizens who have lived in Canada for many years. Some of them have filed their 1040 return each year with the IRS, while some still do not. Many who don't file ask questions like, "How will they find out?" or, "What business is it of theirs?"
The answer is another question: "Do you want to keep travelling to the U.S.?" If so, then you had best become compliant with the rules. Anyone who thinks personal information can be kept secret, when the U.S. Customs & Border Service and Homeland Security are looking at your passport every time you cross the border, and your financial institution will be reporting to the IRS, is kidding himself or herself.
Some people have taken comfort over the years from the apparent fact Customs & Border Service was not supposed to share information with the IRS. That balloon was pierced for me this week when talking to a colleague at the annual conference of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) in Toronto. He told me a first-hand account of a client crossing the border, and the customs officer walking him over to an IRS agent at an adjacent desk, who asked why he had not been filing his required U.S. resident tax return.
The tomorrow we have feared for a long time has arrived. Talk to your tax preparer or financial planner about how to become compliant and go to my blog at http://bit.ly/9CB6ES for a full article on this.
Snowbirds, if you spent more than 30 days in the United States in 2009, then this applies to you. First, determine if you have a "substantial presence" in the U.S. by adding together:
-- Total number of days you spent in the U.S. in calendar year 2009;
-- 1/3 of the days spent in 2008; and,
-- 1/6 of the days spent in 2007.
If the total is greater than 182, then filing of Form 8840 is mandatory, separately for each spouse. If the total is 182 or less, then submitting the form is optional. The deadline each year is June 15. To obtain your form, go to: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8840.pdf. It then gets mailed to U.S. Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service Center, Austin TX, 73301-0215, U.S.A. Make a photocopy of your forms, as well, and carry them with you when you head for the border.
The penalty for noncompliance can be the IRS forcing you to pay tax on your worldwide income, then you trying to get appropriate Canadian and U.S. tax credits so you are not taxed twice on that income.
For full information on Snowbird-filing requirements, go to my blog at http://bit.ly/7WbUAQ.
It looks like U.S. tax preparation is going to be a growth industry in Canada.

Campfire food!
(13 Posts)We are staying in a yurt next week, have access to fire pit, bbq, gas stove, most of the utensils we would have at home, pots and pans, but nothing fancy like le cruset.
What lovely things do you cook when you are camping? We will probably eat some simple food on some days, but happy to spend some time cooking something fab at least once, as we see spending at least one day just chilling out by the fire, would prefer not a huge amount of faff though, nice and relaxed.
Not red meat (lamb or beef).
I was just looking at DH's Cool Camping recipe book today. Some lovely ideas in there, will have a look.
I freeze chicken strips in a teriyaki marinade that can defrost slowly over the first night/next day. We usually have these with new potatoes that have been roasted on skewers over the BBQ.
Paella. Great for slow cooking with a glass of wine in hand! Minimal stirring/fuss and just add in whatever meat or fish you want.
oh i might go get that book for DH!
and yes to paella!
Sorry didn't come back. Examples: paella (again), Thai green curry, various kebabs, calzone (pasty-like pizza), risotto, tuna niçoise, damper bread, loads of sweet ideas - even breakfast, but suggests the genius idea of making mini 'trays' for frying eggs.
< disclaimer: haven't made anything from it but the recipes look fine >
I do all my camp cooking over fire. I have a dutch oven and a couple cast iron skillets so literally can make anything I can at home. I even make my own bread in the dutch oven.
Theres potato crusted pizza,the base is just grated raw potatoes cooked on a pizza stone or tray over the fire till crispy. Toppings added then "tented" with tin foil and stuck back on the fire. ( makes an AWSOME breakfast pizza type thing with veggies bacon and or sausage and the eggs cracked on top then left to cook through )
I do fire grilled veggies,peppers onions mushroom etc and serve over a salad with some chicken and feta ( my favorite )
pork chops cooked in cider in the dutch oven ( for chillier evenings ) just toss in any veggies you have left in the cooler and a can of whatever kinda beans u like
Rack of ribs in the dutch oven. Layer of sliced peppers and onions in the bottom,rack of ribs with whatever spice rub you like on them set on top of the veggies, then covered in whatever BBQ sauce you like. 1/2 can Guinness round the pan. Cover and cook on the coals for about 2 hours till tender TO DIE FOR
I LOVE camp fire cooking,its my favorite reason for camping
Saganaki feta- get a block of sainsbos value salad cheese feta, and wrap it up in a double thickness of foil, with some slices of tomato and onion, a drizzle of olive oil, and some oregano if you want to be fancy. Fling in the depths of the fire until charred. Rescue and eat immediately- if it's cold, it stops being nice. Invented by Cretan shepherds, allegedly. A revelation.
I also like corn on the cob done on the fire. And don't forget the marshmallows!
To add.....basically, anything you can wrap in foil and chuck in the fire! Trout are good, and I imagine mackerel would be too.....(whole, of course). As I recall, the trout were stuffed with almonds
campfire cones are fab - waffle ice cream cones filled with mini marshmallows, choc chips, wrapped in foil, then heated. I've also done them with banana and fudge bits
Oldtrout you are a woman after my own heart and I'm salivating at your recipes. Unfortunately I won't be able to take my Dutch oven on my forthcoming family camping trip as they only allow fires in fire pits and it wouldn't fit... I'm saving this thread for next time I take it though!
Loving saganaki sainburys value salad cheese feta though!

Candy Kisses (1949)
Candy kisses wrapped in paper
Means more to you, than any of mine
Candy kisses wrapped in paper
You'd rather have then, any old time
Now you don't mean it, when you whisper
Those sweet love words, in my ear
Candy kisses wrapped in paper
Mean more to you, than mine do dear
I built a castle, out of dreams dear
I thought that you, were building too
Now my castles, all have fallen
And I am left, alone & blue
Once my heart was, filled with gladness
Now there's sadness, only tears
Candy kisses wrapped in paper
Mean more to you, than mine do dear

Haloband is a wearable device you can customize. Get your NFC smartphone common actions from just tapping. Let's make smart easy!
About this project
Could services, Smart, Security!
TechCrunch:Haloband Lets You Control Your Smartphone With A Tap On Your Wrist
Engadget:Haloband Provides Shortcuts to Smartphone through NFC
MSN:"Cool new inventions for the New Year"
Techable: スマホの操作を簡単にするリストバンド「Haloband」、タップだけで撮影やチェックインが可能に

Smartphones usually require complicated operations. Many of your favorite functions would cost you 8 seconds or even more to make them happen.
Combination of technology and design.
Then what about Haloband? Haloband is a simple wristband merged with many phone control functions. With your HALOband, when you want to reach for a function of your smartphone, you just need to tap on the band with your phone. BANG! It comes! No need touching the screen or keys.
Here is what you can do by just tapping on band in two seconds:
Haloband is connected with your phone by NFC connection. Waterproof,.no battery. no security risk. Except for above use, it can also play a role in security check and social info exchange. You can swap HALOband to unlock a door or use your phone to tap on other's HALOband to get information.
Haloband is the first NFC wearable device including a online cloud account all over the world!
Customize your move!
Original created function: operations resulted from chips working in conjunction
Easily set HALOband App
There are three sections on HALOband: A, B and Cloud Zone which is for identity authentication and information exchange. We usually use the A & B sections for move set.
- Launch HALOband app to add move
- Select move type. There are six kinds of move types for you to choose from
- Select tap sequence (to launch task)
- Tap HALOband using the move you just chose
SET DONE! Enjoy your trip with HALOband!
Party check in video
APP Setting
One tip: There is no need keeping the app open when you're using the band for all kinds of function. The App is just for writein use.
Another: For beginners, we have prepared a set of default basic functions in the App.
What's inside?
We adopt three pieces of NFC chips inside of the band. These are core of the loop, so we use a kind of covering technique to protect them. Besides, also for protecting them, we choose a kind of stretchy, surgical-grade silicone for outside use.
Prototype Tech Specs:
Band: medical grade silicone
Water resistant construction
Weight: 10 - 15g, 0.35 - 0.5oz
The three pieces of chips inside will work in conjunction to perform different functions, much more comprehensive than a single one. The material for outside use is comfortable even for allergic skin. Also, it's waterproof. You can wear it taking a bath or playing basketball, or even swimming in pool!
We prepare three sizes for your choice. You can choose form forms shown below.
We suggest you click the link below and take this measure way:
Available colours: Black, Purple, Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, White
Stretch Goals
The HALO Story
Everyone has trouble in locking and unlocking smartphones. The frequency usually hurts phones' screen and keys, as well as our hearts. So we decide it's time to do something.
As an I.T. team focusing on NFC tech, we start out with a NFC wearable device idea, as it is the best way avoiding direct operations on phone. And we would like to see it more powerful than smart watch with a more sharp outlook than Iphone.
After trying out hundred kinds of possible method, we get our first 3D-printed prototype in August. After a few days of trial, we found it perfectly matched with our initial goal, saving time and effort. We would like to share this fantastic little invention with public. Fortunately, we have been cooperating with a supplier who provides bands for Nike, thus it didn't cost us too much time producing the first real prototype.Check out our t-shirt design:

A team in crazy love for NFC tech! from Shanghai. We have master from New York University and engineer from Intel. We know each other from college and are all I.T. fans. Our designer's biggest interest is to collect all kinds of interesting collections from all over the world. Our app developer is a real geek. He has written million lines of codes.These are all source of the design.
We started this project about one year ago, in hope we can actually change people's life a little through bringing in interesting and useful stuff to every detail of daily life. We aim to make smart simple, so that every one can use smart device without worrying about complicated operations.
Here is our website: http://www.haloband.me
Welcome fo us on Twitter and Facebook
Haloband need you!
NFC is the trend from future, though it is still in a progress of spreading at this moment. It is not that possible to push forward much only by our team, so we need your help to spread this new tech concept to your friend, to all over the world. Besides, your contribution fund will help carry out this product, including tooling and mechanical costs, assembly and testing, as well as perfecting Haloband.
We, and the NFC tech, need you now.
Help us spread the word!

Risks and challenges
There are two main challenges, one is app, the other is manufacturing.
Fortunately we have already prepared the app part. Though some moves are hard to program, we didn't give up and through tons of hours testing dozens of functions, we now can offer a basic app integrated with the most useful mobile functions choices for you, finally.
As for the manufacturing, we currently have a 3D-printed working prototype and real prototypes for test, however, as the design evolves for manufacturing, it is expensive to open a new product line. Since we have been cooperating with a supplier who has been producing bands for 10 years, we can sure of the factory's quality and short delivery period. We promise to have delivered all of the bands by end of next FEB. as long as the funds is ready, however, we keep a chance of sooner delivery if we can reach our goal earlier.
Upgrade your reward. You can contact us to get specific details through KS message or email:email@example.com..
Simply pick your desired rewards and pick the international choice, the $5 shipping fee choice will automatically show.
We are not releasing an iOS app for HALOband at this moment. However, if iphone carries NFC function in next general, we will definitely release an edition for IOS or iphone. At this stage, you can still use HALOband to share information with others. After all, pledge for such a pretty wristband is worthy:)
HALOband now can work with Android NFC phones and tablets. Such as:
Samsung -- Note3, S4, Note2, S3, Galaxy Round
HTC -- One Max, One, One X, Butterfly
Google -- Nexus7, Nexus5, Nexus4, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S
Motorola -- Moto X, Razr D3, Droid Maxx, Droid Ultra
Sony -- Xperia Z1, Xperia M, Xperia ZR
LG -- G Flex, G2, Optimus G, Mach
...For more, you can check if your phone or tablets carries NFC from this list, http://www.nfcworld.com/nfc-phones-list/ .
Or check your phone setting, there will be an NFC switch in NFC phone, just like:
http://www.haloband.me/will-my-phone-work-with-haloband/ -
We now offer five sizes and seven colors. We will send you a survey on the size and color choice and your address after successfully achieving goal on Kickstarter.
No. The app is just for setting the band. It's unnecessary for you to launch the app when you're using the band.
Definitely No. You will hardly notice the difference when you keep NFC on.
The Kickstarter Edition will be engraved with the word KICKSTARTER, and have a nice T-shirt.

Chocolate Chick Apparel gives new, improved meaning to attractively sweet and sassy, a boutique clothing line that specializes in simple, eye-catching fare that compliments the African American female.
Nicely priced, it's headed up by owner Natasha Hunter, a Minneapolis native and graduate of North High, who handles the operation in her spare time as she winds down her career in the U.S. Navy.
What, you may well ask: Why is Chief Petty Officer Hunter doing designing and selling tee-shirts, tee-shirt dresses and sweatshirts? "Around 2005," she reflects, "I started noticing the shift in hip hop music and how disrespect for Black women, which used to be reserved for gangsta rap, was starting to go mainstream.

One man's opinion on the top five Monday night games for 2012:
1. Atlanta Falcons at Detroit Lions, Week 16. Call this one the Karma Bowl. The Falcons took offense when Ndamukong Suh allegedly celebrated Matt Ryan's ankle injury during an October game between the teams last season. Suh called the injury "karma" for the Falcons' allegedly dirty tactics. Good teams and bad blood should make for good theater.
2. Denver Broncos at Atlanta Falcons, Week 2. Peyton Manning's first post-Indy appearance on "Monday Night Football" takes him to Atlanta for only the third time in his career. The Falcons are a footnote in this matchup. Manning plays only one indoor game during the 2012 regular season. This is it.
3. Carolina Panthers at Philadelphia Eagles, Week 12. Neither team had a winning record last season, but who cares? This game presents a chance to see Cam Newton and Michael Vick on the same night in the same stadium for the first time -- assuming they're both healthy enough to play after running around, into and through defenses for two-plus months.
4. Chicago Bears at San Francisco 49ers, Week 11. Patrick Willis vs. Matt Forte. Brian Urlacher vs. Frank Gore. Expect a physical game and a big test for Jay Cutler on the road. The 49ers have arguably the NFL's best defense and they'll be eager to show it in prime time.
5. Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks, Week 3. Two NFC West teams on the list? What is this, the NFC West blog? Yes, but this one's legit. Few venues can approach Seattle for atmosphere, especially in prime time. And this game marks Green Bay's lone appearance on Monday night. The Matt Flynn storyline adds interest.

Congressman Harold Ford, Jr. Supports Marriage Equality in New York
June 13, 2011
Harold Ford, Jr., the former congressman from Tennessee and now a New York resident, has filmed a video with HRC for our New Yorkers for Marriage Equality Campaign. In the video, Congressman Ford states, "I'm proud to say my views on this issue of marriage equality have changed. I've listened and I've learned." The campaign, which raises the public profile of marriage equality in New York, can be viewed online at www.hrc.org/NY4marriage.
Polls continue to show a clear and strong majority of New Yorkers support committed gay and lesbian couples getting married.
The New Yorkers for Marriage Equality campaign is centered on video testimonials from New Yorkers who support the right of same-sex couples to marry. To date, HRC has released videos from Michael Strahan, Ben & Jerry, Broadway Actors, Vanessa Williams, Anna Wintour, Larry King, Sean Avery, Julianna Margulies, Bill T. Jones, Sam Waterston, Christopher Meloni, Mario Batali, David Chang, Tom Colicchio, Lucy Liu, Bill Bratton and Rikki Klieman, Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Former New York City Mayors Ed Koch and David Dinkins, Russell Simmons, Mark and Sunrise Ruffalo, John Slattery, Joan Rivers, Barbara Bush, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Whoopi Goldberg, Daphne Rubin-Vega, Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon, Fran Drescher, Moby, Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe, Julianne Moore and Kenneth Cole – with more to follow in the coming weeks.

Evaluation of Tunable Data Compression in Energy-Aware Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract: Energy is an important consideration in wireless sensor networks. In the current compression evaluations, traditional indices are still used, while energy efficiency is probably neglected. Moreover, various evaluation biases significantly affect the final results. All these factors lead to a subjective evaluation. In this paper, a new criterion is proposed and a series of tunable compression algorithms are reevaluated. The results show that the new criterion makes the evaluation more objective. Additionally it indicates the situations when compression is unnecessary. A new adaptive compression arbitration system is proposed based on the evaluation results, which improves the performance of compression algorithms.

I used Sams but it left me hungry. Honestly the Visual Quick start books are a pretty strong series.
well the Dreamweaver Bible is a good referrance tool but it doesnt have lessons....
try the H*O*T series they have lessons in them
JUST LAUNCHED - www.hirethisdesigner.com - check it out
Instead of taking the time to learn DW, how about learning HTML. http://www.w3schools.com
I understand HTML because I HAVE HAD to learn it because DW can act like a clumsy puppy at times
knowing HTML is a plus....
if anyone plans on being a 'web designer' then HTML IS A MUST
but if someone is a designer that does web once and a while then DW is fine....
JUST LAUNCHED - www.hirethisdesigner.com - check it out
Thanks everyone! I appreciate all the tips. I am currently learning HTML and just wanted to move into DW slowly. I totally understand the need for HTML before anything else. If you can't write the code then you can tweak stuff or even correct issues. Keep the suggestions coming if you got them and thanks again!!
I'd highly recommend ANYTHING put out by 'Friends Of ED'
Everything is written in a designer friendly manner, yet the content is very involved.
Check out:
Foundation Flash MX 2004
Foundation Dreamweaver MX 2004
For Dreamweaver I highly recommend "Dreamweaver MX 2004, Training from the Source" (a New Riders book I believe, orangish yellow cover, too lazy to get the info). I personally started by coding almost everythingwithNotepad atfirst (ugh...) and started using Dreamweaver during it's 4th installment only after I've learned HTML. It was really easy to use, but then they released Dreamweaver MX and the current MX 2004, which is quite different than Dreamweaver 4, so I had to get this book to catch up. While you're at it, get some books or look online for JavaScript, XML, PHP, ASP (fun reading!!! ), and even trylearning ColdFusion. Knowing just a little bit of these can't hurt. If you're going to be a developer as opposed to a designer, then you really need to learn these. Bottom line, though, is that you need to know HTML. View the source code of some web sites that you like and see what they do; after learning HTML you'd be surprised as to how you can intelligently navigate other people's code (provided they did a good job of coding of course).
For Flash, I have tons of books and I still feel like an idiot with it (currently developing my first portfolio site with it). Iwould recommend"Flash MX 2004: Training from the Source" (same publishers and everything as the book I mentioned for Dreamweaver) to get your feet wet. Every other book I have is dated, but they may help such as "The Flash MX Project" (looks like a dirty manilla envelope), "Flash MX Magic" (anyone notice I like New Riders?), and maybe even"Flash deConstruction: Juxt Interactive" which is really dated by referring to Flash 5, but it is really effective in showing how Flash sites actually work and some of the code that is involved as well as the company's process in developing their web sites...if there's anything more up-t- date than that one it would be really cool if someone would let me know about it.
Hope that helps.
ryan not everyone is dead set on learning every programming language on the web....most of the designers here dont even do web design..... knowing DW is great for most people... My old professor was a web designer and he never even touched anything beyond the psd file... you are very knowledgable with web developement but be considerate when you talk to use code fearing designers.

Wayne: No! She's the Emperor.
J.D.: Yeah, but with really great ****.
i am less and less impressed with dreamweaver, but my skill set does not include code. using dw has helped me to understand a lot...it's just not perfect. if you want perfect, i guess you'd have to hire ryan!
i kick myself that i didn't learn more code earlier, but it is what it is and i find it helpful to see how what i do in the design pane changes code... just take it with a grain of salt, imho.

Morocco adopted an efficient policy in the management of immigration and refugees affairs which makes it a model for many countries in the region, said, on Thursday in Rabat, UNHCR regional director for MENA Amin Awad Abu Bakr.
The Moroccan approach for immigration and refugees issues has a worldwide scope and stems from international laws in force, the UN official told the press after a meeting with minister in charge of Moroccan expats and immigration Anis Birou.

Madrid, Espagne | AFP | mercredi 11/02/2015 - 18:34 GMT
La justice a convoqué 16 gardes civils dans l'enquête sur la mort d'une quinzaine de migrants qui tentaient de gagner à la nage l'enclave espagnole de Ceuta au Maroc en février 2014, a-t-on appris mercredi de source judiciaire.
Madrid, Spain | AFP | Wednesday 2/11/2015 - 19:53 GMT
A Spanish court has summoned 16 police for questioning over the deaths of 15 Africans who drowned swimming towards Spain as officers fired rubber bullets, authorities said on Wednesday.
A judge in the Spanish territory of Ceuta which borders Morocco summoned the 16 members of the Civil Guard military police for questioning to assess whether they could be responsible for the migrants' deaths, judicial authorities said in a statement.
United Nations, United States | AFP | Wednesday 2/11/2015 - 17:55 GMT |
The UN envoy for Western Sahara, Christopher Ross, arrived in Morocco on Wednesday at the start of his first regional tour in a year, which followed tensions with Rabat over the disputed territory.
Morocco accused Ross in 2012 of being partial in the dispute over the former Spanish colony but in late January said it was ready to support his mediation efforts.
Salé, Maroc | AFP | lundi 09/02/2015 - 21:34 GMT
Le Maroc a démantelé l'an dernier "plus d'une centaine de réseaux de trafics d'être humains" entre l'Afrique et l'Europe, dans le cadre de la lutte contre l'immigration clandestine, a affirmé lundi soir un haut responsable marocain.
"Dans le cadre de la lutte contre la traite des êtres humains, nous avons démantelé plus d'une centaine de réseaux" en 2014, a indiqué à l'AFP le ministre délégué auprès du ministre de l'Intérieur, Charki Draiss.
February 5, 2015 by Helena Maleno Garzón
The Spanish cities of Ceuta and Melilla, which sit not in Spain but on the coast of Morocco, are the only two places where the European Union shares a land border with an African country. As such, these Spanish enclaves have the most heavily guarded borders in the EU to keep out African migrants.
On occasion, large groups of African citizens—most of them fleeing war and poverty—will attempt to reach Spanish soil through Ceuta or Melilla. It was such an attempt one year ago that ended in an easily preventable tragedy.
Brussels, Madrid, 5 February 2015 – The Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) and the Jesuit Migrant Service (JMS) Spain call for safe and legal access to Europe one year after 14 people died during a confrontation with Spanish border guards near Ceuta. The Tarajal tragedy serves as a stark reminder that Spain along with other European Union member states are a long way off respecting the human dignity of forced migrants.
Bruselas, Madrid, 5 de febrero de 2015 – El Servicio Jesuita a Refugiados (JRS) y el Servicio Jesuita a Migrantes (SJM) España hacen un llamamiento en favor de un acceso seguro y legal a Europa un año después de que catorce personas murieran durante un enfrentamiento con la guardia de fronteras española cerca de Ceuta. La tragedia de Tarajal es un dramático recordatorio de que España, junto con otros países de la Unión Europea, aún dista mucho de respetar la dignidad humana de los migrantes forzosos.
Situation Générale en janvier 2015 Prévision jusqu'à'mi-mars 2015
The year opened with a worsening of the ongoing conflicts in Yemen, Nigeria and Ukraine, each with potentially major regional implications. Violence escalated in Sudan, as well as in Lebanon's Tripoli and along its southern border with Israel, and a deadly clash between police and militants in the southern Philippines threatened to derail the peace process there. In South Asia, both Bangladesh and Nepal saw political tensions intensify.
General Situation during January 2015 Forecast until mid-March 2015
Rabat, Morocco | AFP | Friday 1/30/2015 - 14:27 GMT |
At least six would-be migrants drowned when their boat capsized near Melilla, the Spanish enclave in Morocco, authorities said Friday.
Another 10 people were rescued from the water after the boat overturned off the Moroccan town of Nador, five kilometres (three miles) from Melilla.
The vessel was said to be carrying 20 would-be migrants and two smugglers.

New MSF report reveals countries struggle with skyrocketing vaccine prices amidst market shrouded in secrecy
London, 20 January 2015—Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) today called on pharmaceutical companies GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Pfizer to slash the price of the pneumococcal vaccine to US$5 per child in developing countries, ahead of a major vaccination donor conference in Berlin.
NADOR, 13 janvier 2015 (IRIN) - Fin 2014, une image a beaucoup circulé sur Internet. On y voit deux golfeuses, vêtues de blanc sur un luxueux parcours de golf, qui semblent faire abstraction de la présence en arrière-plan d'une dizaine de migrants qui tentent de passer en Europe en escaladant la barrière grillagée qui marque la frontière.
NADOR, 9 January 2015 (IRIN) - Late last year an image went viral. In it two golfers, dressed in white on lush green fairways, appear oblivious as in the background around a dozen migrants try to scale a border fence in an attempt to enter Europe. The migrants were climbing from the sleepy and conservative coastal north Moroccan town of Nador, trying to enter Melilla, one of two Spanish territories inside the North African country. It shone a light on Morocco's struggles to manage its migrant population and attempts by Spain to further seal its borders.
After an intense training in life-like disaster conditions, the team members are ready to search through rubble with one goal: save as many lives as possible.

We've built the world's most comprehensive career test. Our questionnaire measures over 180 traits to match you against 500+ careers. Our mission is to help you find your calling in life.
Take the career testHumanitarians promote human welfare and ideas of people; they bring about change in the normal behavioural patterns of a society and help to aid by giving money or necessities for those in need. Necessities could be in the form of food, water, clothing, shelter, equipment and medical supplies which give relief to people in unfortunate and desperate situations.
Doing and participating in something that results in an act of kindness goes a long way in someone's eyes. The simple act of donating money to a charity or a cause that one believes in is also considered a humanitarian act, and should not be measured by how much time or money is spent. It takes a lot for a person to care about someone they don't personally know. It is a wonderful human ability to be able to understand struggle, loss, pain and fear and to turn that understanding into a humanitarian act. In turn, this brings happiness, not only to the one(s) in need, but to the person giving the helping hand.
At the end of the day, a humanitarian does not look for glory or praise. His or her main goal is to make a difference in the world they live in, to make someone's life better than what it is, and to ease the plight of people that have little hope.
The workplace of a humanitarian is not subject to one particular place. It can be anywhere in the world that is in need of help. Whether it is working from a desk in your local community or digging a well in Africa, a humanitarian is someone that acknowledges the importance of forming strong working bonds with their community and other communities. People from all over the world, from different walks of life and different faiths, can make a difference by their humanitarian acts.

A self-portrait inspired by my dreams…I have been awake all this night…because of nightmares…I kept dreaming about two women stuck together, and no matter how hard they tried they could not escape one another. They soon both started coming after me for help. I was frightened, I ran away from them…I woke up from this horrible dream and painted this piece….it was 4:00am….
Media Used: charcoal, pastels, acrylic on water color paper 18 × 24
self portrait, ugly, beautiful, charcoal, pastels, acrylic, expression, emotion, anxiety, depression, grief, mental illness
I am a graphic designer and fine artist. I am an obsessed designer and compelled artist. I enjoy painting, drawing, creating my own textures and images for my designs. Through my art and designs I hope to awaken raw emotions from the viewer.

Hurricane Ivan Approaches
By Alabama Public Radio
Alabama – Hurricane Ivan is about 530 miles southeast of Dauphin Island and expected to make landfall somewhere near the Alabama coast late Wednesday or early Thursday.
Governor Bob Riley has declared a state of emergency and asked coastal residents to evacuate voluntarily. Baldwin County schools are closed today, and some residents in Geneva County living in mobile homes and low lying areas are under a mandatory evacuation.
The approaching storm has also postponed runoff elections scheduled today in Gulf Shores, Foley, Bayou Le Batre, Dauphin Island, Spanish Fort, Loxley and Elberta. Runoff elections will be held elsewhere, including Demopolis, Northport, Hoover and Huntsville.
