Summary. Diabetes mellitus is characterized by a high risk of atherothrombotic events. What is more, venous thrombosis has also been found to occur more frequently in this patient group. This prothrombotic condition in diabetes is underpinned by laboratory findings of elevated coagulation factors and impaired fibrinolysis. Hyperglycemia plays an important role in the development of these hemostatic abnormalities, as is illustrated by the association with glycemic control and the improvement upon treatment of hyperglycemia. Interestingly, stress induced hyperglycemia, which is often transient, has also been associated with poor outcome in thrombotic disease. Similar laboratory findings suggest a common effect of acute vs. chronic hyperglycemia on the coagulation system. Many mechanisms have been proposed to explain this prothrombotic shift in hyperglycemia, such as a direct effect on gene transcription of coagulation factors caused by hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress, loss of the endothelial glycocalyx layer, which harbours coagulation factors, and direct glycation of coagulation factors, altering their activity. In addition, both chronic and acute hyperglycemia are often accompanied by hyperinsulinemia, which has been shown to have prothrombotic effects as well. In conclusion, the laboratory evidence of the effects of both chronic and acute hyperglycemia suggests a prothrombotic shift. Additionally, hyperglycemia is associated with poor clinical outcome of thrombotic events. Whether intensive treatment of hyperglycemia can prevent hypercoagulability and improve clinical outcome remains to be investigated.

Finding John Maloof: Behind the Director's Street Photography
by David J. Carol
May 29, 2014 —
Photo © John Maloof 2014
John Maloof has gained a great deal of notoriety since discovering street photographer Vivian Maier's negatives at an auction in 2007. He has produced two monographs of her work and made his directorial debut with a documentary titled Finding Vivian Maier (which opened in 75 theaters this past March). What people may not know about Maloof, however, is his personal love of street photography.
"I got into photography after being inspired by Vivian Maier's negatives," Maloof explains. "From there I became obsessed with the art form. Unlike painting, which I dabbled in prior to this, the idea that I can make an image with every shutter click...something about that is so satisfying to me."
Maloof adds that while there is some overlap with photography and cinematography—"in both you are composing, judging light, what to put in the frame, etc."—the main difference is that street photography is "more intuitive and reflexive than cinematography because the anticipation of a scene about to unfold and hitting the shutter at the right moment is a lot more difficult than just rolling tape on a scene."

Dr. Solomon has been trained in one medical specialty.
Dermatopathology is a medical specialty classified as the study of the function and structure of skin as it relates to a patient's health. Dermatopathologists typically work as diagnosticians, analyzing skin samples and biopsies that have been sent to them by other physicians seeking assistance in making a concrete diagnosis.
Dermatopathology combines both scientific and medical expertise. Dermatopathologists study samples of skin cells using specialized equipment to identify skin disorders and diseases at the cellular level. These physicians are generally found in laboratories, utilizing immunological, histochemical, molecular, histological, ultrastructural, and microbiological techniques.
Dermatopathologists often become involved in a patient's case when they are sent a skin sample or biopsy from a physician. The dermatopathologist will focus on an analysis of skin cells; these physicians are not concerned with other types of genetic material. Although they typically do not interact with patients, dermatopathologists play a vital role through their diagnostic expertise, lending support to physicians when an exact diagnosis is elusive. Dermatopathologists are not always involved in the face-to-face treatment of patients.

Posts tagged LipSurgence matte lip tint
Favorite Back to School Looks
As summer comes to an end, it's time for me to start thinking about the coming school year. This includes getting together all of my favorite fall fashion picks. After browsing through recent magazines, I'm excited to say that I can still use some of my go-to trends from previous years like the classic blazer. I bought mine two years ago to complete my preppy college girl look, and I know I will continue to wear it for the rest of my life! Both my Mother AND Grandmother own one. It's a great investment! To make my "blazer adorned" outfit age-appropriate, I pair it with skinny jeans, statement heels, and tons of jewelry—chunky bracelets, long necklaces, and big pearl earrings. I think these feminine touches balance out the masculine feel. I love my blazer because not only does it prove to stand the test of time, but it can also be worn in ANY situation like casual shopping, business meetings, and a night out on the town, etc. It's basically the best piece in my closet!
As for my beauty picks this fall, I love soft, natural eyes with a statement lip. It's amazing how defined lips can pull your whole look together. tarte has some great lip selections for the autumn. The new LipSurgence™ matte lip stains come in fashionably-chic colors. As I tend to be a pink-loving girl, I would choose tarte's LipSurgence™ natural matte lip stain in lively, which is a vivid pink. Some other great choices are fiery (red) and envy (a deep berry color). To accompany my bold lip, I'd create a natural eye with tarte's 12-hour lock and roll eye shadow in either sandstone or rose gold. Then I'd layer on lots of lights, camera, lashes! 4-in-1 natural mascara! To complete my look I would add a subtle touch of color with tarte's natural cheek stain in tipsy. And voila! A natural and stylish look for fall.
Hope you agree. Have a great fall!

A College Girl's Beauty Bag
My name is Kate. I'm a rising junior at Boston College and I also happen to be the new tarte PR intern, doing my best to dive into this glamorous world. I am soooo excited to be working at such a great, green company, not to mention giddy over the access to all the fab makeup!
Recently, I have tried out some of tarte's newer products, and I must say, as a "college girl," many of these products are totally ideal. For instance, as I think many college students can relate, the party scene at school can get overcrowded, hot, and sweaty. This is why I am in love with tarte's new summer collection of waterproof products, perfect for girls like us! So I have decided to put together a list of beauty products, hair and nails included, that are particularly alluring to a beauty addict in the midst of her education.
First off are my fave waterproof products. lights, camera, splashes! and matte waterproof park ave princess. I for one love to look bronze, but don't want brown streaks of sweat rolling down my face whether I'm stressing in the library, lounging on the campus green or at a party. PAP is the perfect, sweat resilient bronzer. Next in the bag I would include tarte's cheek stain, in tipsy, and LipSurgence™ natural lip stain (in charmed). Again, great long staying products, as well as easy and quick to use– I'm a girl on the go!
Now we can't forget about the hair. I have long fine wavy hair, that I like best when straight, however it's hard to keep it that way when engulfed in humidity. To keep my hair in place, I have come to turn to L'Oreal Elnett Extra Strong hold hair spray. It gets the job done, but doesn't make my hair hard or crunchy. I'm also a fan of chi volume boost. I loooove volume and this really boosts my roots! Now for the nails. As I'm sure many of you have heard, OPI has a new gel polish that I guarantee will last over a month without a chip. I know I don't have the time or money during school to get a manicure every week (because that's how long a manicure lasts), so this gel formula is the perfect solution!
Well that's it for the "college girl's" beauty bag must haves. Please share any additions and I'll be back with another post next week!

It began with some hassle with getting a visa since I'm going on an exchange in September. Soon after that was Drawing Day; and I spent the whole day drawing. This made me miss a lot of new work over the past two weeks, so the last weekend I dedicated to looking at the new works. Really haven't done origami in a while so thinking my next upload will be another little creation; I tried to do some new ones last night, but the challenge was too much; or perhaps this activity is more suited for the weekend when I am more calm; we'll see. Hope you are well. Hugs…
– Mui-Ling Teh
I love the mixture of colours and patterns in this, and the way the fish seem caught in the reflection.

The theme of this year's Contemporary Art Society fundraising gala may have been "Kaleidoscope: Colour in Motion" but there was a rather disappointing chromatic deficiency amongst most of the artists and artworlders present, with sober suiting and muted monochromes being the order of the evening from the likes of Conrad Shawcross, Richard Wentworth, Mark Wallinger, Jane and Louise Wilson, Roger Hiorns, Mat Collishaw, Sir Nicholas Serota and his former protégé, the newly-appointed National Portrait Gallery Director Nicholas Cullinan.

Welcome to the Te Ipukarea Society.
Please note: Lagoon Day Adults Quiz is located on our NEWS page
Te Ipukarea Society (TIS) is a non-government, civil society environmental organisation (NGO/CSO).
We are a membership-based organisation made up of individuals who believe in the need to maintain a healthy and beautiful environment.
Scroll down for our latest news articles…Find out more about Te Ipukarea Society in our about us section
Making fashion from tita
Sabine Janneck, TIS Exec Member has designed a hands on way to tackle our growing plastic waste issue. Using the packaging from chip and biscuit packets, Sabine makes these stunning bags, clutches and boxes. She is currently in discussions with a number of shops and schools around the island to collect their old chip packets to avoid ending up in the landfill or being burnt. There has been widespread interest about the initiative with CITV and CI News doing interviews with the TIS Exec member. As a TIS member, you can support Sabine's efforts by collecting your suitable packets and dropping them off to the TIS office for recycling.
Lagoon Day this year was held on July 17 and 18, at Punanga Nui Market. June Hosking once again did a fantastic job in the leadership and coordination of the event and TIS would like to say Meitaki Maata to her for that. The caliber of the stall holders and presenters this year was outstanding and based on questionnaires answered by students, everyone had a great time! It was great to see a number of TIS members popping by on their lunch breaks or volunteering on different aspects of Lagoon Day. For those of you who couldn't make it, our stall focused on one of our key areas, ecologically sustainable development, namely eco-tourism. The stall was manned by Kelvin and his two daughters, Sieni and Hareta who did a great job of keeping the students engaged and interested in the topic. We focused on the local businesses who are doing their bit to lessen their footprint through tourism and even had a surprise visit from the Pacific Resort bio-fuel truck on the Friday.

The Cubs think Yoan Moncada is a big-time prospect with the chance to become a special player. That is not exactly going out on a limb. This is supposed to be the next great Cuban hitter.
The Cubs hope Jon Lester can become their Andy Pettitte, a durable lefty who has nerves of steel in October and keeps performing at a high level through his mid-to-late 30s.
Only two months after their veteran voices amounted to a mere whisper, the White Sox have turned up the clubhouse volume.
Derek Jeter always had a flair for the dramatic. But even after the Captain has retired, his locker is still being used by the super-clutch.

As part of Sara's Recitation at her 3rd Grade Poetry Tea, she also had to create a piece of art, inspired by any poem of her choosing. (Her Recitation was a Hilaire Belloc poem; her art was...not.) "Willie with a thirst for gore, nailed his sister to the door. Mother said with humor quaint, careful Willie, don't scratch the paint." And thank you A.E. Housman for that visual, brought so colorfully to life by Sara, and proudly displayed for the world to see. Luckily, Sara nailed the dress to the door, thereby avoiding any "crucifixion" confusion. She got an A+. As many hours as she poured into designing and cutting those clothes and painting the rug? Seems right. I didn't even handle the glue gun for this one!

Salvia dorrii locations etc...
Hi Again,
It has been a while since I Posted, but I wanted to give a little update on my project. I have been trying to grow both dorrii and pachyphylla in an area where they are not. I really don't know why there is no dorrii is Shelter Valley, CA as it would seem to be a perfect location. If anybody has any ideas I would be very interested!!!!! I have had very marginal success in getting dorrii established. I can get the seeds started and plants up to about 2" and transplant them into the ground. Most perish at that point. So, I am wondering if anybody can tell me where I could find some native stands? Maybe I can learn something from looking at them in the wild! I will be headed down HWY 395 from Bishop to Landcaster in about 2 weeks. I would greatly appreciate if somebody could give me some coordinates or...? of some dorrii locations. An email works great as well.
Now for the success!!!!The pachyphylla have been a different story!!!! I have some bushes that are now 14" x 14" and were just beginning to bloom when I had to leave on a trip for a month. I sure hope they're still blooming when I get back!!!!!!! I would like to post some photos if they still are, and wonder if anybody could send me in the right direction on how to do this!
I also planted 12 'Mulberry Flame' and they seem to be taking off, so will be excited on updating you all on this!
Many thanks for the advice and help, both past and present!!!
Mulberry Flambé is a variety of salvia pachyphylla from high country gardens.
I've tried to grow Dorrii many times here in Las Vegas but it's just too hot for it. I have seen it an hour from here growing wild in the mountains. It is very drought tolerant but I just don't think it likes a lot of heat. I love pachyphylla though and have had success until we started getting even hotter than our old normal. Love clevelandii also.
We'll now that is weird! I thought I had replied to Rich but I wonder what happened to my reply? Anyway...
Thanks for replying and MANY thanks for the VERY insightful information about dorrii!!!! Maybe that is my problem, as I think our summers would be very similar to yours!
How long do your pachyphylla plants live? I have absolutely loved the photos of the pachyphylla you posted in years past!!!!
Any suggestions on varieties of cleavlandi?
Thanks again!!!!
Hello Sandnsage,
Your project continues to sound interesting and pushing the envelope on salvias outside their habitat is always fun and a challenge. Dorrii is a touchy species. I would try to get them more established in the pot before transplanting into the ground. 2" seedlings in the pot are usually a little frail. I'd wait till you have some woody trunk material before sinking them into the ground. I would also use some of the native soil from the area where you are going to plant in your potting mix. I agree with Maria in that the heat factor is not in their favor for survival. I think you're already in the Sonora desert and I'm not sure if dorrii goes into that zone . Personally, I've always had success finding dorrii wherever I've found Joshua trees and even the Joshua Juniper woodlands, like at the top of El Cajon Pass near Victorville, Hesperia and Phelan and also in the Lancaster area, like near Quartz Hill where there is a sprinkling of remaining Joshua trees. I've also seen some spectacular dorrii scapes in the Mojave Preserve at the base of the New York and Providence Mtns where I've even found it literally intertwined with Salvia mohavensis. Usually find them in canyons and arroyos where they get more h20.
Good luck!
I am growing Salvia dorii v. in canna Robusta that I got from High Country Gardens.I know either a cultivar or a ⢠variation. I am in Texas and so far so good , BUT it is still the mild part of the summer. We are just now getting are first upper 90's. I am in Z 8b almost 8a. It is rated on the HCG site as Z5- 8. It made it through the humid part of the summer and we are drying out now.

BOSTON - With the addition of more espresso drinks to its menu, Dunkin' Donuts might look like it's trying to be another Starbucks Corp.
Well, it's true that Dunkin' Donuts is experimenting with WiFi access in a few Chicago shops and considering music in more of its stores — two features of Starbucks outlets. But although its espresso launch has boosted its competitive position against Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts says it is content to maintain its distance from the upscale Seattle coffee giant and stick to its workaday, on-the-go niche.
There's no broad campaign encouraging customers to linger awhile at Dunkin' Donuts' pink and orange-themed shops — and there are no plans to switch from Dunkin Donuts' ''small-medium-large'' cup size hierarchy to something akin to Starbucks' oft-mocked sizes of tall, grande and venti.
''People say you're taking on Starbucks, but we're really not,'' CEO Jon Luther told The Associated Press in a recent interview. ''All we want to do is share some space with the coffee consumer.''
What the franchise chain is planning is to share that space by expanding westward — only 70 of its stores are currently located west of the Mississippi River. The company, a subsidiary of the British wine and spirits firm Allied Domecq, has its heaviest concentration of locations in New England, where there are 1,700.
And it's changing its menu again, planning to add iced beverages to its year-old line of espresso drinks, and broadening its small line of sandwiches with a new sirloin steak, scrambled eggs and cheese on a bagel. The sandwich, to be offered through May at selected outlets, is an upscale version of the breakfast sandwich Dunkin' Donuts now offers with a choice of bacon, ham or sausage.
The move comes as both Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks put greater emphasis on sandwiches to draw more afternoon customers and respond to moves by fast-food giants such as McDonald's Corp. that now sell more premium coffees.
Dunkin' Donuts customers interviewed outside a downtown Boston shop across the street from a Starbucks said they welcomed some of Dunkin' Donuts' recent changes — as long as the chain doesn't abandon the basics.
''It's quite a bit cheaper than Starbucks, and it's convenient, and they're fast,'' said Sandra Jadotte, a 30-year-old downtown officer worker and three-times-a-week consumer of Dunkin' Donuts' no-frills coffee.
Brian Lam, 25, said he chooses Starbucks when he wants a strong blend of top-notch coffee, but opts for Dunkin' Donuts when he craves French Vanilla flavoring.
''I'm here for the caffeine strictly,'' Lam said.
While Dunkin's doughnuts cemented the company's name and reputation, they made up less than 15 percent of the chain's total $3.6 billion in fiscal 2004 sales. Espresso beverages accounted for 10 percent, nearly twice what the chain expected when the highend drinks were introduced early last year, Luther said.
Clearly, Starbucks and its huge sales of espresso are on the minds of Dunkin' Donuts executives. In a recent press release, Dunkin' Donuts said its new lattes and cappuccinos ''helped the brand solidify its position as a viable competitor to premium coffee chains like Starbucks.''
And next summer, Dunkin' Donuts will introduce the Turbo Ice: iced coffee with a shot of espresso.
Starbucks doesn't appear to be worried: ''Starbucks believes there is room for many coffeehouses in the marketplace that can meet different customer needs,'' spokeswoman Valerie Hwang said.
And an industry analyst said it would be a stretch to suggest Dunkin' Donuts will pose a big challenge to Starbucks.
''Starbucks has spent more time working on the coffee shop experience, and when you compare that to Dunkin' Donuts they don't even seem to be in the same game together,'' said Carl Sibilski of Morningstar. ''The real product Starbucks is offering is more than just the coffee in a cup. The real product is the environment, and Dunkin' Donuts is lacking that environment.''

Can this floor be saved?
djohn36755September 1, 2012
Sad day - we put our 15 year old dog to sleep this morning. She had kidney faillure this last year and my entire downstairs is compromised. It is factory-finished oak flooring in a medium stain. In spite of our diligence - she often had accidents that have resulted in dark patches of stains. I know the idea would be the rip it all out but we cannot afford to do that now. I wondered if we could have them sanded - re-stain a dark color and refinished? I'm not obsessed with perfection but would like them to look better. There doesn't seem to be any odor but the discoloration remains. Thanks for your ideas!

US researchers have found that the Western Antarctic Ice Sheet is warming nearly twice as fast as previously thought. Combining previous data with computer models of the atmosphere and a numerical analysis method, the researchers were able to fill in the missing observations from previous records kept at Byrd Station, located near the center of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Scientists are now worried that the warming ice could accelerate the rise in sea levels.
The study results show an increase of 36.32 degrees Fahrenheit (2.4 degrees Celsius) in average annual temperature between 1958 and 2010. First evidence of warming was found during the Southern Hemisphere's summer months. Although it's natural to expect slightly warmer weather during the summer, the temperatures in Antarctica rarely rise above freezing.
"What we're seeing is one of the strongest warming signals on Earth," says Andrew Monaghan, a co-author and scientist at the US National Centre for Atmospheric Research. "This is the first time we've been able to determine that there's warming going on during the summer season," he added.
Previous research showed that warm ocean water was causing the ice to melt, but new work shows that the atmosphere is playing a significant role as well. Researchers suggest that the warming can be contributed to winds and weather patterns coming from the Pacific Ocean. There are concerns that melting ice will lead to rising sea levels. However, scientists say that the run-off of melting waters into the sea is unlikely to happen for several decades – most of the water runs down the ice sheet and refreezes, causing ice shelf-collapses similar to the violent collapse of the Larsen B shelf in 2002.

ID for evergreen plant among haircap moss
bombahcOctober 26, 2012
Hi folks! I need some help identifying the small evergreen plants among the haircap moss and the grayling mushroom in this picture. I thought they might be some kind of sapling but I'm not sure. These plants spread like strawberries, sending out runners (i.e. many plants share common roots). The surrounding area is acidic and has many late bog succession plants like blueberry, mosses, ferns, black spruces, etc.
I'm in zone 6.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Watch out when Glenn has something to prove
It is always more satisfying to see people earn their success and opportunities than having them gift wrapped and handed to them.
While some players have had the good fortune to trip, stumble, and fall into Grey Cups and onto championship rosters, Kevin Glenn has been chewed up, spit out, punted, and left for dead more times than any other quarterback in the CFL.
This is a player who wasn't supposed to be playing in the Western Final, and who will now start in the Grey Cup for the first time in his 12-year career.
After starting 15 games for the Calgary Stampeders this year and winning 10 of them, what has happened to Glenn so many times before, happened again. He got the proverbial rug pulled out from underneath him. He has been stripped of starting quarterback duties so regularly throughout his career you'd figure he'd be an exotic dancer by now. He was always just the guy that was never destined to be the guy.
When he was traded to Calgary, it was as a backup. Drew Tate was the starter and Glenn was the insurance policy. When the insurance policy was activated, Glenn led the Stampeders to the second-best record in the CFL, but it wasn't enough, and it has never been enough. When Tate came back early from what was initially thought to be a season-ending injury, he was given his old spot back again. Tate was always the future, Glenn was the stop-loss program.
As you have probably figured out, Tate was hurt again in the Western semifinal, but if he was somehow able to mend his fractured arm in a week, he would most likely be back at the helm of the Stampeders as they prepare for the Grey Cup.
Glenn has never had anything handed to him, he has always had things taken from him. Whether he has failed to seize the opportunities before him, or has always been a magnet for misfortune, this is business as usual for him.
In the five years I played with Glenn, I always felt that if he was matched to the right system and surrounded by competent players, his potential was unlimited. Quite simply, he is as good as the players and scheme that he works with. He isn't necessarily going to elevate the game of his teammates with his play, but if you outfit him with the proper arsenal, he can do damage.
When a player like Glenn is a runner-up for a major league award like he was in 2007, and then doesn't have the same level of productivity the following year, I'm more suspicious of his complements than I am of his abilities. Not to make excuses for Glenn, as many other pivots are able to adjust to annual changes in personnel and systems, but stability and continuity weren't exactly themes of the day during most of his tenures.
While Glenn will never be charged with being the most intense or serious competitor, when he has a chip on his shoulder and plays with emotion, in my opinion, he is at his best.
In 2009, when we had to beat Hamilton to make the playoffs, a number of us commented on how, just like most QB's, Glenn didn't like to get hit. At all. This notion manifested to the point where he must have felt he was being conveyed as "soft," and he played with a level of passion and clinical precision you don't always see in his game.
Whether as his teammate or his opponent, the days when he feels he has something to prove, are the days you better take serious heed of his skills.
Rarely is there a single game that can change or define a player's tenure, especially after 12 seasons in the CFL, but the 100th Grey Cup may just be a big enough exclamation point to forever alter the perception of Kevin Glenn.
If he wins this game and puts his stamp on it -- no pun intended -- he may finally have the respect and the accolades required to close out his career as a pivot on a team that isn't continually looking for something better.

rutabagas in northern Michigan?
I live very close to the upper peninsula; it's about an hour drive from where I live. However I live in the upper part of the LOWER peninsula (just clarifying this to avoid any confusion).
I don't know too much about rutabaga, growing it or eating it. I just know it's a root veggie that has a fairly long growing season.
I know 90% of cold weather veggies, including root veggies, hate cold weather. I can only think of a few exceptions, and those are kale and collards; since rutabaga, has such a long growing season, is it able to be grown in summer (as in heat doesn't bother it). Or is it one of those cool weather veggies, that hate hot weather too?
If so, how can you grow rutabaga in northern Michigan? The growing season here is so short, that even if you plant it in April, it won't mature until June, which even for Northern Michigan (which has milder and cooler summers compared to 'deep south' gardening zones) is still really hot at that time of year.
Is it one of those things, like parsnips, where it'd be able to be grown in March (as in early march, beginning of March) and the weather wouldn't be too cold that it would kill it?
I also know you can sow it in fall, but when in fall? Should it be grown in late fall (like September or October, so that when it's fully mature, it'll be dead of winter.....November or December).
Both should grow well in the part of Michigan where you live. simply direct sow the seeds about the first of June. Parsnips are sometimes hard to get to germinate, so plant new seeds only.
We grew both rutabaga and parsnips well in Carrot River, Saskatchewan - look it up. We would have considered the area of Michigan you live in as the deep South.
Thank you for the information. Unfortunately I'm a little confused. To my knowledge most root vegetables don't like hot weather; I did ask if rutabaga is the exception to this rule or is something that hates hot weather.
You never did answer that question; not trying to be rude when I say this, sorry if it comes off that way.
Hypothetically if it were grown in June, it wouldn't mature until August. I don't have a problem growing it in the summer, I just don't know if like other cool weather crops, rutabaga is something that hates hot weather, or is one of the few root veggies, that don't mind it or even like it or prefer it over cool weather (or doesn't care either way).

Yes, that's right – you can get a free copy of Filter Forge! And other rewards too. We always seek good filters for the Filter Library, and we are willing to reward the authors who help us improve it.
To get a reward, you must earn a sufficient number of Reward Points. In our current reward program, 1 Reward Point equals 1 High Usage Rank filter. Once a filter attains the rank, it will count towards your future rewards, even if it loses its Usage Rank later.
Here are the rewards you can receive:
When you choose a reward from the list above, a corresponding number of Reward Points is taken off your account, so to get more rewards you've got to earn more Reward Points by making more High Usage filters.
For example, suppose you had 3 High Usage Filters, which means 3 Reward Points, and you spent them to get a free copy of Filter Forge. Now you have zero points left, so, if you want to get another reward, say, free lifetime upgrades, you've got to earn 5 Reward Points more.
All you need to get started is a trial version of Filter Forge. Download it (if you haven't already), learn the Filter Editor and submit great stuff – your rewards await you!
Note: We reserve the right to change the terms of our reward policy at any moment.
This is really a fantastic piece of software, I highly recommend everyone checking it out if you're into pattern/texture map creation.

"So often software will advertise one thing and not deliver. Your program not only delivers but does it with ease."

"For 3D modelers, Filter Forge is a dream come true. It creates seamless textures with a single mouse click. The professional version creates the following map types for any texture: bump, normal, specular strength, specular exponent, diffuse, metallic, and alpha. The same filter can be used to generate any resolution, since filters are procedural."

England in India: Ian Bell shines but Delhi win by six wickets
One-day tour match, Delhi:
Delhi 295-4 (48.3 overs) beat England 294-5 (50 overs) by six wickets
Ian Bell shone for the second match in succession but could not prevent England slipping to a six-wicket defeat in their second warm-up game before the one-day international series in India.
England v India ODI series
- 11 Jan - 1st ODI, Rajkot (d/n) (06:30 GMT)
- 15 Jan - 2nd ODI, Kochi (d/n) (06:30 GMT)
- 19 Jan - 3rd ODI, Ranchi (d/n) (06:30 GMT)
- 23 Jan - 4th ODI, Mohali (d/n) (06:30 GMT)
- 27 Jan - 5th ODI, Dharamsala (03:30 GMT)
Bell top-scored with 108 and shared in a partnership of 113 with Eoin Morgan in a much improved batting display from the defeat by India A on Sunday.
Alastair Cook's side posted 294-5 but Shikhar Dhawan led the way for Delhi.
The opener scored 110 as the hosts eased home with nine balls remaining.
The first ODI of the five-match series against India is on Friday, January 11 in Rajkot.
England rested Kevin Pietersen, while Cook featured after missing the first match because of illness. Joe Root and Stuart Meaker also came in to the side as Jos Buttler and Tim Bresnan were left out.
"A score of 294-5 should have been sufficient, but England's seamers bowled erratically. Wides and no balls undermined Steve Finn in his first spell, and neither Stuart Meaker nor Chris Woakes carried much threat. James Tredwell took two wickets and exercised genuine control early in his spell, but in truth there was no-one Alastair Cook could totally rely on. At least the batting was a significant improvement on Sunday but the bowling will have to be much sharper in Rajkot."
Bell, who scored 91 in the first warm-up game, compiled 108 off 125 balls at the top of the order before he was trapped lbw by Varun Sood, while Morgan's 52 came at just under a run a ball before he was caught by India Under-19 captain Unmukt Chand off Jagrit Anand.
Sood returned figures of 3-45 but late runs from Craig Kieswetter, with 41 not out from 27 balls, lifted the tourists to just short of 300.
The England total appeared formidable but former India batsman Dhawan and Chand (37) attacked from the off.
Dhawan was finally dismissed for 110 off 109 balls, but rookie Milind Kumar (78 not out) and Rajat Bhatia, with 45 not out off 33 balls, saw the hosts home with ease.
