People in a large area of the American South have long been known to have more strokes and to be more likely to die from them than people living elsewhere in the country.
Now, a large national study suggests the so-called stroke belt may have another troubling health distinction. Researchers have found that Southerners there also are more likely to experience a decline in cognitive ability over several years - specifically, problems with memory and orientation.
Does high blood pressure increase the risk of getting Alzheimer's disease? Although several studies have highlighted hypertension as a potential AD risk factor, getting prominent play in the press, the epidemiologic evidence to date remains surprisingly weak.
A new advance by UCLA biochemists has brought scientists one step closer to developing treatments that could delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease and prevent the sexual transmission of HIV.
The researchers report that they have designed molecular inhibitors that target specific proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease and HIV to prevent them from forming amyloid fibers, the elongated chains of interlocking proteins that play a key role in more than two dozen degenerative and often fatal diseases.
This week, WGBH is taking a look at the impact of Alzheimer's disease on the caregivers of Massachusetts' more than 300,000 Alzheimer's patients. Our five-part series looks at the emotional and physical impact of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's, exploring one family's detailed plan for dealing with the disease, and looks at different strategies for supporting patients with Alzheimer's, like assisted-living and art therapy.
There are new genetic clues on risk factors and biological causes of a rare neurodegenerative disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), according to a new study from an international genetics team led by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. In the largest genetics study of the disease, three new genes associated with risk for PSP were identified and two additional genetic variants affecting risk for PSP were confirmed. The paper appears online in Nature Genetics.
Scientists have designed a brain implant that restored lost memory function and strengthened recall of new information in laboratory rats - a crucial first step in the development of so-called neuroprosthetic devices to repair deficits from dementia, stroke and other brain injuries in humans.
The National Alzheimer's Project Act, Public Law 111-375 (42 U.S.C. 11225), requires that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) establish the Advisory Council on Alzheimer's Research, Care, and Services. The Advisory Council is governed by provisions of Public Law 92-463 (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2), which sets forth standards for the formation and use of advisory committees.
Oldest-old survivor stories notwithstanding, mild cognitive problems, as wlel as full-blown dementia, are common among women 85 years and older, and their prevalence keeps going up as these women get older, according to a new study. "There was some question in the research community as to whether the incidence of dementia might plateau after a certain age," said Kristine Yaffes, University of California at San Francisco (UCSF).
Steve Riedner of Schaumberg, Ill., was a 55-year-old tool-and-die maker, a job that involves difficult mental calculations, and a frequent speaker at community meetings when he found himself increasingly at a loss for words and unable to remember numbers. He even began to have difficulty reading his own written comments.
The neurologist he consulted thought Mr. Riedner had suffered a stroke and for three years treated him with cholesterol-lowering medication. But instead of his language ability stabilizing or improving, as should happen following a stroke, it got worse.
On Sunday, May 1st, CNN will air the first Larry King special, premiering at 8pm ET/PT and will be titled "Unthinkable: The Alzheimer's Epidemic." It's being called the disease of the 21st century as an estimated 5.4 million people have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It is the sixth-leading cause of death across all ages in the United States, but many Americans still do not know much about this illness. The one-hour special will look into Alzheimer's disease, who gets it and why, the race to find effective treatments and a possible cure.

Honda Prelude Replacement Air Filter Information
For a unique look with tons of power vehicle collectors trust Honda for their sporty car wishes. Outstanding engine power and automotive performance depend on high-quality parts and accessories. A vehicle's motor burns a mixture of gas and air; the oxygen enters the engine from outside your vehicle and can be contaminated by grit or dust particles. Quality Honda Prelude Air Filters does its job by deploying a screen made from paper or cotton to block the damaging dirt and grit before they can get to the cylinders. Made from pleated bits of fiber of synthetic texture in an extremely minimal design, the Air Filter is placed directly next to your air intake manifold. A car or truck's Air Filter is an incredibly essential component that decreases the total quantity of dirt and dust that make it to your car or truck's intake system and cause a loss of efficiency.
They are available for the following Honda Prelude years: 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 91, 90, 89, 88, 87, 86, 85, 84, 83, 82, 81, 80, 79. This part is also sometimes called Honda Prelude Filters. We stock air filter parts for most Honda models including Accord, Civic, CRV, Odyssey, Fit, Pilot, Ridgeline, Element, Insight, S2000, CRZ, Passport, Accord Crosstour, Civic del Sol, CRX, Crosstour and Wagovan.

00 2000 Honda Prelude Air Intake Hose Genuine
87 1987 Honda Prelude Breather Hose Lower Genuine
99 1999 Honda Prelude Cabin Filter NPN
01 2001 Honda Prelude Cold Air Intake AEM

Fit perfectly. Much cheaper $ here than at the parts stores around me.
Nothing better than K&N! increased performance, and fuel mileage. Parts geek shipped fast and on time. Will use partsgeek.com again in the future.
After replacing the OEM paper filter with the K&N filter I noticed an immediate improvement in throttle response and acceleration. Don't expect a huge gain in power, but the difference is noticeable. I would highly recommend a K&N filter.

You can call me Mike or Michael. My first name is Dennis but I never used it. (Most likely form Dennis the Menace.) My mother always called me Michael.
I envy anyone who has a Chambers stove but there are no parts for them today, so no repair. The company name was used again a few years ago, but they had no parts for the classic stoves like in your picture.
Michael (is that what you prefer to be called? Just checking) - I wanted to bring my parents' Chambers stove back to my house when they died, but (a) I was not there for the auction and (b) it would have cost a fortune to ship from rural Illinois to Washington state. You are right - they weigh a ton. My parents' house had a basement. My dad had to install a bean under the stove because it was making the floor sag. He used a car jack to raise the joists back into position.
Spud, for nostalgia, I've been buying kitchen tools from estate and yard sales. My bowls, cutting boards, and measuring cups, and some baking dishes, are all from some old family or other, much used and still solid. For some reason, I like using them much more than new ones.
Home today to do work via internet. It's officially my "day off" but I always work. Since I'm salaried, not hourly, I can take breaks as long as I get the work done - sort of, it is endless - so comment on here. Making bread today, a good thing to do in fall and winter. And I think I'll roast a butternut squash from the garden for a pie.
Spud, sweet potatoes make a great pie too!
Felaine, I hope there are ways to enjoy being older. Enjoy what you can.
Spud, I too have a gas stove, and hooked it up myself years ago. I need to replace the oven burner, since the temperature will not get above 350. And, it's my impression that gas stove top burners are more easily controllable than electric. Besides, I do a lot of stove top cooking using cast iron, which can destroy modern electric glass or ceramic cook tops.
Deidre, I once made a homemade pumpkin pie, and I do recall preparing the pumpkin was quite a chore. Then again, I may have been doing it incorrectly. I'm with Daniel's suggestion that starting a topic may be a good way to go. And, if you don't mind, I may ask a few questions about sweet potato pie.
Bertold, I absolutely NEVER drink coffee...I hates it. I do drink about 3 cups of weakish black (Tetley) tea a day, the rest of the time I drink filtered H2O or cranberry juice. Once or twice a year, I'll have a glass of wine, and in the hottest days of summer, a root beer float.
What has caused my gout attacks in the past has always been some kind of high protein meat...shrimp, salmon, rumaki, rare steak, and turkey. Everything good. I mostly live on chicken, and an occasional cheezburger....with broccoli or some such on the side.
It gets boring after a while, but I also have mild diabetes, and can't fill up on bread or cookies. I've lost about 40 lbs in the last 3 years...weight I needed to lose....but I look awful; acres of loose, wrinkled skin. Getting old REALLY sux.
I never wanted to live this long.
Daniel, your old Chambers stove pictures are classic. Out of business today, the stoves would cost too much to produce. The only thing close to them are the restaurant/industrial variety and they cost thousands of dollars. The Chambers stoves were still around when I was a repairman, they had little go wrong with them, they weighed a ton, and the ovens were lined with firebrick. (You could not see the bricks of course.) People that bought these stoves expected them to go 50 or 60 years, and Chambers claimed they would. Just too expensive to make today.
One of these days I want to try making my own pumpkin pies. Store bought have very little flavor. They just don't add enough spices for my old taster. Fresh ingredients would make a difference also.
Daniel, my mother used a coal-fired range for the first 15 years of my life. Newspaper went in first, then kindling from the trees my dad harvested and cut into kindling, then coal on top.
That neat old range spent quite a few years just stored in the basement of our new house which came with an electric range.
I don't know who has it now. I think It's one of my brothers.
Ah, nostalgia!
Deidre, it would be great to hear how you do that. I have roasted pumpkin and squash for pies, always seems to take longer than the instructions state. Butternut squash makes a great "pumpkin pie".
Starting a topic might be a good approach, so it is easily searchable.
I wonder if there is a pie crust roller, like an old laundry ringer? I procrastinate making crusts because of the effort, but I don't like store crust. I make oil crust and roll between sheets of wax paper. very flaky.
Michael, some people are lucky, but that knock-you-down gas smell is funny!
From what I've read, natural gas is not as dangerous a propane because natural gas has a very small range of concentrations where it will burn. Too little or too much and it will not burn. That's probably why we don't hear of more houses going sky high.

text: Hacking the GIS computer Compliments of the Realm of the UNHOLY (xxx) xxx-xxxx This is about the GIS computer... This computer is actually a time sharing system designed to give High School students help with college Info, occupational help, Armed Forces occupation help, financial help (scholarships, loans, etc.)...... Though there is not much left to hack on GIS, it can be helpful in planning for your future. Phone number = xxx-xxx-xxxx (Common 300 baud carrier answer) When you logon, you will see all kinds of bullshit like GOOD MORNING, etc.... Then it will ask you for your account number. The format for this is XXX,XX (all of the X's are numbers.) Next it will ask you for the password; the format for the password is XXXXX (always a 5 letter word)....Possibilities? COUNT, DRIFT, RIVER, etc...... Then you will be asked what file you wish to use. There are 6 main files on GIS. They are: OCCU -Occutional Help ASOC -Armed Services Occupation Help COL2 -2 year College Info COL4 -4 year College Info GRAD -Graduation Info AIDS -Student Loans, Scholarships, etc. --------------------------------------- Response by: DATA LINE From the format you gave, it sounds like the computer is a DEC PDP of some type. Try logging into a privileged account [1,XXX]. For some beginning hackers, try typing in SYS or DIR[*,*] or simply HELP. To phuck things up for the 130 account, try RUN $TTYSET and when you get the "#" prompt, con- figure with maybe WIDTH 10 or reset SPEED to 110 and it'll screw up the port for a while. One account that is always there is [1,2], the system library. If you get in, you naturally have full access across ALL accounts. DEL[*,*]*.* is a lot of fun. I am a system manager on an 11-23 under RSTS 8.0 and may find some other neat things as I make notes from the manual. Data Line. --------------------------------------- Response by: ENEMY WITHIN Here are some useful commands within the system: P -Print general info. (P622) I -Print detailed info. (I662) IFT -Print detailed info in a specific area. (I662F31T105) B -Print both general and detailed info. (B662) A -Include or add a characteristic. (A12) S -Leave out a characteristic. (S12) E/ -Include at least one of the characteristics. (E132/133) D -Erase or delete a characteristic. (D12) N -Get the names of occupations, schools, or aids that qualify. Search Commands: P,I,F,T,B,A,S,E,D,N,R,Q,L,C Now here's what you have been waiting for... I go to a Rockwood School District school, and I know their account number and password: Rockwood School District ------------------------ Account = 30,130 Password = xxxxx Believe me, I didn't hack this out on my own, all it took was a little snooping around the Counselor's offices....Also, this is not all you can do on this computer, once we created our own school district on that system called THE DUMBFUCK SCHOOL DISTRICT. How, I don't remember. Have Phun at the expense of the Rockwood School District! --------------------------------------- Response by: ENEMY WITHIN With the help of Mr. Taran King: Parkway School District ----------------------- Account= 30,108 Password= xxxxxx Also, with the help of DATA LINE, The priveledged accounts are in the format of 1,XXX. Have Phun! --------------------------------------- Response by: TARAN KING Here is a number for GIS that you can use at 1200 baud: 567-9001. I don't think it's any different, except faster (for the priveleged 1200 baud users, myself inclusive.) Later on. TARAN KING --------------------------------------- Response by: MAN - TOOTH Well guys, I feel obligated to fill you all in on my recent try-outs of the previous information.... First of all for you non-habituals out there, this system is completely harmless and I can't see much of a way for anybody to get into any trouble unless you alter the system. I found that experimenting was the only way to understand this system, but here are some more helpful hints for general usage. In the college file area each college has a given #. These numbers first are in alphabetical order by states, then by the name of the college; so if you guess a few times you should be able to find it. The commands are: P)rint I)nformation F)rom T)o B)oth A)dd S)ubtract D)elete N)ame R)eady Q)uit L)ist C)ollege name W)idth H)eight and there is E(?). There are probably some more, but those are the only ones I found. There is probably a way to list the whole list of colleges and their #'s since it's updated annually. If anybody figures this out then tell us! 30,130 / DRIFT worked fine and with the info from other messages you should be well-prepared! Have 'phun' ---->Man-Tooth --------------------------------------- Response by: THE ELIMINATOR One more thing about the GIS. When you log on with your Account and PW then hit CTRL-C. This will put you in the RSTS system. You should see a 'READY.' prompt. Type 'HELP' and you should get a list of available commands. Type 'HELP (command)' to find out how each one works. To see what's on your disk enter 'DIR'. You can't do much w/out a priviledged account, but if you get a priv. then it's Master Blaster time!!! For all who are interested, I have a G-Phile that explains what to do on an RSTS once you have a priveledged account. Later.... The Eliminator --------------------------------------- Response by: DOCTOR CRASH If you want to go to the timesharing mode, hit <CNTL-C> twice after logging in. You must do it quickly, or you will be logged off. If anyone out there knows a high level account and password, it would be appreciated. Doctor Crash THE REALM OF THE UNHOLY 10/3/85

Outrage in Belfast over Israeli war crimes - brief report.
On Monday 29th December, in response to a call from the local branch of the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign, close to 100 people assembled in front of Belfast City Hall to protest at the barbaric Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip. Those present included members of the Palestinian and Muslim communities in Belfast, MLAs, members of political organisations, of Belfast Trades Council and of trades unions, community leaders and activists and NGOs. During the protest the crowd observed a minute's silence for the dead of Gaza and of the West Bank, after which they heard speeches condemning the Israeli action by Nobel Prize winner Mairead Maguire, recently returned from Palestine and from Patricia McKeown, President of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions. The local press conducted interviews and took photos. The protest lasted approximately an hour and a half.

Andrei, For you to say that, you are obviously ignorant to the situation of Gaza, and of the Palestinian people, you are obviously ignorant to the fact that Israel has invaded and has killed thousands of Palestinians before, The media says that it is to target hamas, but the truth of the matter is, families living within close proximity of suspected Hamas HQ's are told to leave and some cannot, many cannot leave, and so they are bombed to hell with "Hamas suspects".

I wonder why Joe has been hanging around the vicinity of those airport lockers for over a week now?
"Alarm is sent to parents when device is carried outside of prescribed zone." Uh, won't that simply teach children to set the device down before wandering off?
I don't care what it teaches kids, as long as my "Big Brother" doesn't give me one of these things for my birthday or otherwise force me to carry it around.
Now, where did I leave my tinfoil hat?
beating your kids != knowing where your kids are
In a day and age where kids are walking into schools and killing classmates I don't think that allowing parents to know where their kids are at all times is too much to ask.
So you want to raise an alarm if your kid goes to a school?
There's no way of saying how effective this will be until
Thank God. For a second I was a little scared. I mean, my parents need me to program their VCR to stop flashing 12. My dad thought his shift key was broken, when in reality his entire keyboard wasn't working. My guess is that the kids are going to be able to either change the "fence", disable it, make it so it doesn't notify the parents, or simply not take it with them.
Just goes to show, digital rights management isn't the only easy thing to crack, organic rights management is too.

This is how things like this happens:
IBM engineers make this box probably approx. the size of a z/800 or S/390. Marketing sees that they can't send out something like "the size of a large mainframe cut in two" so they sends it out as "the size of a dishwasher" because people will understand that.
But jounalists then don't think that's sexy enough and think that "a dishwasher is like a big TV" and sends it out as "the size of a TV".
You can already do all of that (seriously) with a Sony Ericsson t610/t616 phone and an iMac
So, let me get this straight - I buy one of those things for myself, set up a fence at some appropriate distance from my house, and it'll automatically notify my house when I'm at a certain distance away on my way home?
Now that is a valid use for the device...
Please think of the children, and purchase one immediately!

Charlotte hosts 'Healing of Spirit, Healing of Body'
"When illness strikes," says Temple Beth El Cantor Andrew Bernard, "the possibility of healing remains a reality even when the possibility of a cure does not."
It is with this in mind that Temple Beth El is hosting a panel titled "Healing of Spirit, Healing of Body" at 9 a.m. May 18.
Bernard has served as a cantor at Charlotte's Temple Beth El since 1999 and as Chaplain Specialist at the Levine Children's Hospital since 2005.
The panel is part of a weekend devoted to "celebrating the many acts of loving kindness shared amongst Temple Beth El's congregants and towards the larger community," says Rabbi Judy Schindler.
The Weekend of Caring and Social Justice will begin with a special 7 p.m. service May 17 called "A Culture of Caring – Celebrating the Quiet Moments of Healing," which will feature several congregants who have been on both the giving and receiving end of congregational support in the wake of a health or personal crisis.
It will end Sunday with Temple Beth El's 15th annual Mitzvah Day, in which more than 500 congregants, from toddlers to seniors, pitch in to better the community and help those in need.
Saturday's panel discussion, free and open to the public, is co-chaired by Louise Frumkin, a social worker and chairwoman of Temple Beth El's Caring Committee, and Michael Blackman, a physician and Temple Beth El member.
"As a general rule, the medical community doesn't talk about healing. It focuses on curing," Blackman said.
Frumkin, who will moderate the discussion, says it is designed to generate "a dialogue about healing and hope in the face of illness and difficulty."
Bernard will serve as one of the four panelists, who all are community experts on healing. He will be joined by Dr. Derek Raghavan, medical director of the Levine Cancer Institute; Dr. Russ Greenfield, director of Greenfield Integrative Healthcare, PLLC; and Beth Rosenberg, a social worker at Hospice and Palliative Care Charlotte Region. The panelists will each speak for approximately five minutes on their unique perspectives on healing, then will field questions from the audience.
Frumkin hopes family members of those facing chronic illness and other life challenges will attend the panel discussion and that "they'll come away with some new ways of looking at their situations and some new coping mechanisms."
Bernard, who said "many people discover that their faith does not have the depth they need to cope with acute or tragic situations," sees his job and that of other chaplains as one of helping the individual rebuild it in a much more profound way: A way that can help that individual find healing – and perhaps even joy – in his or her journey.

I don't know, you can download a number of SSH apps from the app store and use one to connect to a real computer. If one thinks of the iPad as a really smart touch-based, graphical input/output device that has limited resources of its own (like the iPhone), instead of as a one-piece PC with an onscreen keyboard, then that distinction opens up a whole new market that rides on the success of the iPhone, which has already seen more popularity and mainstream familiarity than OS X.
The iPad and its imitators all have potential, but not running Windows or OS X and their apps.

Young men who watched the movie American Pie with accompanying commercials for alcohol were more apt to grab a beer or glass of wine from the refrigerator, compared to those who watched a movie without the drinking prompts.
This study shows for the first time the effect of on-screen depictions of alcohol and their influence on consumers' behavior, said the researchers, who are from Canada and the Netherlands.
"It's one of those things the majority of people have assumed to be the case, but it's nice to have the empirical evidence," said Jeffrey T. Parsons, chair of psychology at Hunter College in New York City. Parsons was not involved with the study, which was published online March 4 in the journal Alcohol and Alcoholism.
But, Parsons added, the study had limitations.
"It was done just with young men, and there are a lot of differences in the role of gender and alcohol," he said. "It's also a Dutch study that used American movies. Part of me wonders if it's just bad American movies that make people drink."
The new research isn't the only new troubling data coming out on alcohol and alcohol abuse.
Tuesday, a report in the March issue of the Archives of Pediatrics and
Adolescent Medicine said that an estimated 11 percent to 20 percent of
U.S. teens have T-shirts, headwear, jewelry, key chains and other
paraphernalia emblazoned with brands of alcoholic beverages. These
children seem to be more prone to end up being binge drinkers, the
Dartmouth researchers noted.

Obama and Senator-Elect Scott Brown Related, Genealogist Says
January 29, 2010 - 11:15 AMThe New England Historic Genealogical Society says President Obama and Republican Senator-elect Scott Brown are 10th cousins -- their mothers both descended from Richard Singletary of Haverhill, Mass.
Genealogists said Friday the Democratic president and the newly elected Massachusetts senator, Scott Brown, are 10th cousins.
The New England Historic Genealogical Society said Obama's mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, and Brown's mother, Judith Ann Rugg, both descend from Richard Singletary of Haverhill, Mass.
He died in 1687 at, for the time, the unusually old age of 102.
"I think it's a really interesting thing, where you have the separation between a Democrat and a Republican, but you have one link," said David Allen Lambert, the society genealogist who co-discovered the connection with colleague Chris Child.
Lambert said the work was aided by prior research about Obama, as well as Brown's cooperation with the society when researchers first contacted him in December.
"I'm glad to be in such distinguished company," Brown said of the findings.
In 2008, the society discovered that Obama is related to seven prior presidents, including George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, Lyndon Johnson, Harry S. Truman and James Madison. They also learned he was related to actor Brad Pitt.
Brown, a once little-known state senator, jolted the national political landscape by capturing the Senate seat held for nearly a half-century by late Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy.
The genealogical chart shows that Obama descends from Richard's eldest son, Jonathan Singletary. He later changed his surname to Dunham. Brown, meanwhile, descends from Jonathan's brother, Nathaniel Singletary.
Also on Friday, George Stephanopoulos, co-anchor of ABC News' "Good Morning America" learned he was likely related to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Stephanopoulos underwent DNA testing to promote "Faces of America With Henry Louis Gates Jr.," a four-part series on family histories premiering Feb. 10 on PBS.
Gates told him during Friday's "GMA" show that he's "very likely a maternal cousin with Hillary Clinton."
"Sorry, Secretary Clinton," Stephanopoulos said. "I did not set this up."

Oil output rose 3.7 percent last month from Aug. to 1.98 million barrels per day, the highest since December, after the new drilling sites came on line, the company said today in an emailed statement. Petrobras's total crude production has fallen 2.8 percent this year to 17.3 billion barrels. September's increase shows the positive impact of the new platforms, Karina Freitas and Daniela Martins, analysts at Sao Paulo-based brokerage firm Concordia, wrote in a note to clients.
"Those benefits will be better observed next year, when many of these units will reach production peaks," they wrote.
Petrobras is scheduled to release its third-quarter earnings report today after the market closes. The average estimate among seven analysts surveyed by Bloomberg is for adjusted net income to climb 3.8 percent from the same period in 2012 to 7.86 billion reais ($3.6 billion).

Did Zayn Quit One Direction Because He Thinks He Is Drake?
There comes a time in every young man's life when he must strike out on his own. For Aubrey Graham, that time was 2009, when he left the Canadian band Degrassi to become a rapper named Drake. For Zayn Malik, that time was last week, when he quit One Direction to...also become a rapper named Drake? »

I've modelled two objects in Blender, with different materials and different textures UV-mapped to them. I'm rendering it with the CanvasRenderer
If I export it, there is more than one material but just one mesh in the resulting JSON file.
This is the (simplified) code I use to load a model with Three.js:
var loader = new THREE.JSONLoader();
loader.load(myModelPath, function {
var material = geometry.materials[0];
material.morphTargets = true;
material.overdraw = true;
var mesh = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material);
mesh.scale.set(50, 50, 50);
mesh.position.set(0, 0, 0);
As you can see, I'm only using the
[0] material. The result is that the second object uses the first object's material (if I use the
[1] material, the opposite happens).
But I do not know how to create a mesh that uses more than one material!
Is it even possible? Or, is there a way to export more than one JSON file from Blender (one per object)?

New Here - Meet My Family
I don't even know how I stumbled upon the Garden Junk forum, but somehow I did and I've been very inspired by all of your projects. At the same time, I was quite disappointed to find out that I had not invented Terra Cotta people.
I have a 6 year old daughter and we are in the process of creating a whimsy garden for her. We have the terra cotta family, a flowering teepee, moss steps and a fallen tree planter. So far.
I thought I would share my Terra Cotta famiy. Terra Cotta man is still a work in progress so I haven't glued him together yet or given him his pumpkin face. Even though I have been quite inspired by the other elaborate terra cotta people I have seen on this forum, I like mine how they are.
FWIW - nothing was purchased to make these people. Enjoy!
Your family is so cute! Very creative. I hope to create a garden with my granddaughter, I have several ideas for projects with her. I will have to wait for her to get a little bigger-she is only 8 months old right now.
Very cute! I love the colored "skirts" on the ladies!! I think a coat hanger twisted would make some arms as I really think the little girl should hold something in her hands! Your 6 yr old can decide what, flowers or a little rake or shovel etc. A small watering can that she painted a pic on & you sealed with some clear spray might work too. Have fun with your project! They get so excited about things like this when young. Enjoy every minute!! My 6 yr old is now almost 42, she was Halloween baby!!She & kids had a fun garden this year so pass it on to your kids, too! Jan
thanks every one for the warm welcome.
kylslil1 - The yellow skirt was some type of decorative pot. I think it is supposed to look like a tulip.
sunnyca - your comment reminds me of Picasso and the Sylvette sculpture - Sylvette needed something to hold in her hand.
I did think that arms would look nice, but I couldn't quite figure out how I wanted to attach them. I like the hangar idea. That'll give me some incentive to get the clothes to the dry cleaner - so I can get some wire hangars! I'll see what I come up with.
I spent the day today mulching that whole area. You can no longer see the pallet pieces that the family is standing on - it's all mulched with wood chips.

We have had many sightings of Mt. Lions up in the Los Trancos Woods, including myself who saw one on Los Trancos Rd last week in the late evening. Many neighbors are weighing in on seeing them and the kills left behind.

GNOME Terminal Gets Text Rewrap On Resizing
Published on 10 December 2013 09:11 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
34 Comments
is looking exciting because of
continued Wayland improvements
other desktop work
, but we've now found out that the GNOME Terminal is receiving some love in the GNOME 3.12 cycle.
Matthias Clasen has pointed out via
his blog
that the nearly eight-year-old
Bug 336238
has finally been addressed. This bug report is about text being rewrapped when resizing the GNOME Terminal window. The bug report back in March of 2006 cited that the Mac OS X Terminal exhibits this feature of automatically re-doing line-wrapping when resizing the screen. Now with the latest GNOME Terminal in the 3.11 series, it's finally possible.
For long lines of text within the GNOME Terminal, when expanding the window's screen the word-wrapping will now automatically update. This is a change that should be found in GNOME 3.12 but there's still some developers evaluating its design, etc. The updated Terminal has already landed in Fedora (21) Rawhide for those interested.
Clasen also noted via his blog, "We are planning to to land a few more improvements to gnome-terminal this cycle. Next in line is may be a gnome-shell search provider."
Coincidentally, this week
Enlightenment's Terminal was updated
. In the Enlightenment Terminology 0.4 release, there's also support for text re-flow on resizing the terminal.

Soooo I finally finished my setup. I stole an idea from another member for the tap handles. i have always loved Gnomes Be Gone, and have one of the giant versions. I made the handles out of stainless, and attached purchased gnomes to them.
Here is the end capped and the quick attach service caps.
Whew...What a read! I lolled at the guys saying "whew what a long read" at page 90. I suppose the guys on page 550 will be lolling at me too! I am in the process of building mine, I got an old freezer off Criagslist for 50 dollars delivered to my house! I painted it, and built a collar for it, its starting to come together, and mostly due to inspiration from you gentlemen. I will post pictures soon when it is done!
Currently accepting ideas for Tap Handles. I think I want to make my own. Any ideas?
"My own beard boasts my brewing ability better than my brewing ability can stand up to."
My old keezer died (from having wood glued directly to the sides - don't do that) so I built another. It's finished so here's a few pics. It holds 4 on the floor with room to spare, but only 3 taps for now.
Edit: Someone asked me about the collar. It is wrapped in thick white vinyl that has a diamond textured pattern on it. It's sold as drawer liner in rolls at HD http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/...4#.UD5vl6HaxXp
Nice tap handles!
What are the devices hanging on your corny?
Ok, here are a couple shots, of the making of.
The last picture is the mostly finished product. I am waiting on some hardware for my second tap, and a couple little addons too, like the drip tray, tap handles, and bottle opener. I will post another picture when I have everything up and going.
I did not build it, but bought it from a guy....
It really is a case for the chest freezer inside and includes castors.
I is probably to large for my house and I am building a smaller one... he inspired me...
