Copperplate Gothic font family
Designed by Frederic W. Goudy in 1901
Clarence C. Marder in 1901
The original Copperplate Gothic was designed by Frederic W. Goudy in the early 1900s, and the successive weights were drawn by Clarence C. Marder for American Type Founders. It's a wide, squarish, monotone gothic (sans serif) with the addition of small hairline serifs. These tiny serifs were reminiscent of the edges on letters that were engraved in copperplate, hence the name. This kind of typeface was popular in the mid-twentieth century for stationery and business cards, especially for serious business professionals like doctors, lawyers, and bankers. Today, Copperplate Gothic enjoys a revival in corporate and advertising design, still imparting a look of serious business, both understated and posh. Despite the lack of a lowercase, Copperplate Gothic is legible at small sizes because of its open and wide shapes. There are nine weights and styles; the first part of the numbering system (29-33) relates to the amount of width and weight, and the second part (AB-BC) relates to the height of the caps and small caps.

Clothing & Accessories
Work, play, fashion, economic class, religious faith, even politics—all these aspects of American life and more are woven into clothing. The Museum cares for one of the nation's foremost collections of men's, women's, and children's garments and accessories—from wedding gowns and military uniforms to Halloween costumes and bathing suits.
The collections include work uniforms, academic gowns, clothing of presidents and first ladies, T-shirts bearing protest slogans, and a clean-room "bunny suit" from a manufacturer of computer microchips. Beyond garments, the collections encompass jewelry, handbags, hair dryers, dress forms, hatboxes, suitcases, salesmen's samples, and thousands of fashion prints, photographs, and original illustrations. The more than 30,000 artifacts here represent the changing appearance of Americans from the 1700s to the present day.

A Day with the Chickens
- Description (Brief)
- This print is one of fifteen chromolithographs that were included in the 1889-1890 folio "Sport or Fishing and Shooting" published by Bradlee Whidden of Boston and edited by A.C. Gould. These prints are based on watercolors that were commissioned for the publication, and illustrated by prominent American artists. Each folio illustration was accompanied by a single leaf of descriptive text followed by an account of the depicted sporting scene. The publication was advertised as having been reviewed for accuracy by a renowned group of anglers and hunters prior to printing.
- This print was originally titled and numbered on the text page as 12. A Day with the [Prairie] Chickens. R. F. Zogbaum. Depicted are two hunters shooting at prairie chickens. A dog stands at point flushing birds out of the brush. In the background a man sits in a horse-drawn wagon.
- The artist was Rufus Fairchild Zogbaum (1849-1925) known for his images of horses, cowboys, and battle scenes.

Buffalo Soldier Uniform Coat
- Description
- African American soldiers were allowed to enlist in the regular peacetime army of the United States for the first time at the end of the Civil War. Many of the new regulars had fought as United States Colored Troops during the war. By 1869, four African American regiments—the 9th and 10th Cavalry, the 24th and 25 Infantry—had been dispatched to the western frontier wars. Their duties were not limited to fighting Indians, who first called them "buffalo soldiers." In garrison, they drilled, stood guard, and maintained horses, barracks, weapons, and equipment. In the field, they patrolled harsh terrain in every extreme of weather, built or rebuilt army posts, strung telegraph wire, and escorted settlers, cattle herds, and railroad crews.

Lipstick Case
- Description
- Physical Description
- Gold metal gun shell shaped lipstick case containing red lipstick.
- General History
- In a 1941 editorial Vogue magazine asked: "Is it patriotic to worry about my looks at a time like this?" The response from one soldier: "To look unattractive these days is downright morale breaking and should be considered treason." The United States Marine Corps Women's Reserve wore a Forest Green Hat with a red silk hat cord. Revlon created a red lipstick to match the cord.

A few years back I ran a trail race in January. It was a 5 mile race with a mile stretch around a lake. It was about 4 degrees with high winds. Wind chill was around 15 below. The guy who won the race wore running shorts. I figured he had to win just to get out of the cold faster.

It's currently 21 degrees in Cincinnati, but it's been colder than that the past few days.
We were -14F this morning but we tend to stay warmer as we are on the side of a hill and the coldest air sinks below us. It will often be ten degrees colder just a mile or two from the house. Here at work it was -22 F this morning. It has warmed all the way up to 2 at the moment. The warmest it was yesterday was -1.5.
When I put in my run yesterday, it was -4F. I bundled up and it was fine.
Here are some temps from my area a few hours ago:

Although the Pentax K-5 II and K-5 IIs have now been replaced by the Pentax K-3, we've analyzed the two models with a range of lenses from both Pentax and third-party makers and thought the results would be of interest to our readers. The information is available online but we taken the opportunity to offer a brief overview of the best performing models. Read on to see how well the lenses perform together on the two cameras. |

Launched in September 2012, the Tamron SP90mm f/2.8 Di Macro II VC USD lens aims to continue in the same vein as previous Tamron macro lenses by offering very high image quality in a well-priced package that rivals the offerings from the major camera manufacturers. A true macro lens, this model offers full 1:1 lifesize reproduction and includes Tamron's Vibration Compensation (VC) mechanism to help achieve images free of camera shake even at longer shutter speeds. Also present is their USD, or Ultrasonic Silent Drive, AF motor for fast, quiet AF operation. |
Canon's EF 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus lens blurs images and reality – on purpose. With just a flick of the wrist and lens, the 135mm f/2.8 Softfocus allows photographers to have a "softfocus" in their images. The effect produces a blur and halo throughout the photograph. But how clear are the lens' images when you take away the blur? |
We have just tested both the Canon and Nikon versions of the Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM lens, announced on February 8, 2011. |
We have just tested the Tamron SP AF 90mm F/2.8 Di MACRO on both Canon and Nikon mounts, giving us the opportunity to review the performance of all the lenses in this category (though we're waiting for the results of the latest Sigma 105mm f 2.8 EX DG OS, which should come our way soon!). |
With it true 1:1 macro reproduction and its floating auto-focus system for high optical quality on its very broad range of focus, this Sigma macro lens looks like ideal for a wide variety of photographers, from nature to sport and portraits. Let's review its image quality. |
We have the latest test results for these prime Pentax lenses. With these additions we can now compare the results for 10 Pentax lenses ranging from the kit-featured Pentax SMC DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL II and super zoom Pentax SMC Pentax-DA 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 ED AL [IF] to the more expensive Pentax SMC DA 16-50mm F2.8 ED AL (IF) SDM. |
Test results for the two 100mm Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM and EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM are now available on DxOMark.com. We've also compared the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM vs. the Nikon AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED vs. the Sony 100mm F2.8 Macro (see results here). |

Are Apple keyboards, with only a delete key, less efficient in making deletions than conventional keyboards with both a backspace and a delete key?
I have been using a Windows desktop at home and my office. Although I have never had a laptop, I have been planning to buy an Apple laptop for use when I travel. However, I recently used an Apple and found its keyboard, in one particular way, to be inferior to the standard keyboards that I have been accustomed to using. Do you agree?
A conventional keyboard has two keys to make deletions. The backspace key deletes characters to the left of the cursor. The delete key deletes characters to the right of the cursor. In contrast, the Apple keyboard has only one key to make deletions. It is the delete key and it deletes characters to the left of the cursor. It appears that if I want to delete characters to the right of the cursor, there is no way to do that directly and simply. Am I correct about that? I must either use a second key or I must first highlight the text and then delete it.
Using a non-Apple conventional keyboard, it is also possible to delete an entire word and one adjacent space in only two strokes by using a combination of the control key and the delete key. The same can be done in the other direction using the control key and the backspace key. How would these two types of deletion most efficiently be done with an Apple keyboard?
The reality seems to be that two keys to delete can operate more efficiently, in more directions, than only one (Apple). Do you agree that the Apple keyboard is less efficient in making deletions than the conventional keyboard when using Word software? What is the best way to get around that inefficiency in a MacBookPro? If there is no way around it, should this discourage me from getting an Apple since I do lots of word processing and deletions?
Does the Apple keyboard have any advantages over the conventional keyboard that I should be aware of?

fn + delete = deletes to the right of the cursor.
- Answered by Eric K from Saint Petersburg

This is an old question but I wanted to set the record straight. Can't believe I'm wasting my time on this... I'm a software developer, Windows- and Linux-only until about 2 years ago when I got a MacBook Pro and now it's still my favorite personal computer.
Yes, on the MacBook keyboard, in order to forward-delete you have to press Fn+backspace. This doesn't end up being a big deal, at least to me. I don't type things backwards, so I don't delete them forwards.
Option+backspace deletes a word, option+arrow keys navigate by words. Same as Ctrl in Windows/Linux.
Command+backspace deletes a line, command+left/right navigate to beginning/end of line, same as home/end. I haven't missed the home/end keys. Command+up/down go to the top and bottom of the text area, same as ctrl+home/end.
These shortcuts became muscle memory to me in a matter of days from owning my MacBook, and they don't hinder my usage of PCs at all. Sometimes I come into work (to my Linux box) and the very first time I try to copy something I'll press alt+c, confusing it with command, but it's not like I spend the day mis-typing keyboard shortcuts.
For what it's worth, I prefer using my thumb for major shortcuts like copy/paste. It's more comfortable than my pinky.- Answered by Ricky C from Asdf

George H from Dayton:
In order to quickly take screen shots-it will save the image to the desktop:
cmd-shift-3: screen shot of entire screen
cmd-control-shift-3: screen shot will save in clipboard
cmd-shift-4: crosshair will appear and allow you to capture a screen shot of anything on your screen
cmd-shift-4 then spacebar: allows you to capture just a window on your screen. When the window is blue and cursor turns into a camera, click the screen with your mouse and it will save an image of the window to your desktop.
(adding control to any of the above keystrokes will save the image to the clipboard)
Hope that helps.
Also, there is an app called Grab that comes with all Macs that does the same thing.- Answered by Amanda G from Massillon

The full Apple keyboard (the one with the 10-key pad on the side), NOT the wireless one, DOES have both buttons. And yes, I agree, it is better with two buttons.
- Answered by William D from Columbus
- Flag as inappropriate Answer 4
So, in summary, (Thanks mostly to Ricky C's answer below and to some experimenting) for those of you coming from PC's who would like to use the same shortcuts you did with a mac, here is how you do them on a mac:
Backwards delete 1 character at a time: Delete
Delete 1 word backwards: Option+Delete
Frontwards Delete 1 character at a time: Fn+Delete
Frontwards delete 1 word at a time: function+Option+Delete
Command+Delete: deletes a line
Command Key acts like the control key on a PC
(command C = copy, command X = cut, comm. V = paste, comm A = select, comm B = Bold, etc….)- Answered by Alice B from Red Lion

The Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad is a full-size keyboard. It has a backspace key and a delete key. They are in the exact same locations as the backspace and delete keys on Windows keyboards, and they function in the exact same way (deleting characters to the left and right of the cursor, respectively).
There is one cosmetic difference, though. The 'backspace' key on a Mac keyboard is labeled with the word "delete", and the 'delete' key is labeled with the word "delete" and a tiny arrow pointing to the right, indicating that the key deletes characters to the right of the cursor.- Answered by Jonathan S from Newport Beach

To answer George H's question about using "Print Screen" on a Mac keyboard: go to System Preferences / Keyboard / Keyboard Shortcuts / Screenshots. Select "Copy picture of screen to the clipboard". The default keyboard shortcut is Shift/Control/Command/3, but you can change that to any key combination you want.
- Answered by Cynthia B from Danboro
- Flag as inappropriate Answer 8
MacBook keyboards require a fn-delete combination for the "delete-right" functionality. Deleting a whole word requires a double-tap on the trackpad to highlight the word followed by hitting the delete key. Having switched from Windows many years ago, these maneuvers are second nature and non-issues for me. As another poster commented, people can adapt to most things. I have not felt the need to research this, but I would expect there are key-mapping utilities that might offer other options.
As for whether or not this should discourage you from getting a MacBook, what are the reasons you are considering a MacBook in the first place? Does the delete key issue (in addition to any other negative attributes you come up with) trump all other positive attributes of the MacBook? It is difficult to justify a switch from PC to Mac or vice-versa. My personal feeling is there are other aspects of the switching question that will ultimately have a much bigger impact on your experience than the keyboard.
I am not a PC expert but I know there is some pretty hardware out there on the PC side. If I were considering a PC/Mac switch (in either direction), the hardware alone would not be enough to push me over to one side or the other. Much of the differences in Windows vs. OS X come down to personal preference. When I am forced to, I use a 4-year old Dell with Win XP at work, so I can't compare OS X with Win 7. But I am completely dependent on the implementation of various features in OS X that make it practical to have 30+ documents and windows open simultaneously across a dozen or more apps at the same time. I don't know what Win 7 offers as answers to Exposé and Spaces. Another big one is the ability to run Windows on the OS X desktop (via VMware Fusion or Parallels). I might actually consider switching the other way if I could run on the Windows desktop the few Mac-only apps that are essential for me.- Answered by Glenn T from San Ramon

I too am a Windows/Linux/Unix developer, I became an apple fan after buying an iPhone 3 when it came out and followed it by a 13" MacBook pro and a 27" iMac. I like the apple products, mostly because of fit and finish of the products. As for the keyboard, its a matter of getting used to the it and unlearning the PC keyboard. Early on, I found out that apple products are more intuitive than most other products I've used. Just play around with the keyboard and when in doubt, use the control keys along with the main key, chances are you will get the desired response.

I have the new wireless keyboard for my new iMac 27". I definitely agree that it is less efficient than the wireless keyboard I had for my old iMac G5. I can't believe that the designers eliminated the delete key, so one can delete to the right of the cursor. It's a big mis-design (omission, rather)!
However, I do like the functionality and feel of it. Typing is pure fun with these keys. I hope the corded keyboard is similar in key design and choice of material, because that's what I'm getting to replace the wireless.
I also have the "miracle" pad, but haven't figured out what to do with it, yet, and I'm currently not using it. I think, the magic mouse makes it redundant.
I'll see, if I can use the miracle pad in photoshop, as a drawing tool (or am I expecting too much?).- Answered by Hans K from Quesnel

You are SPOT-ON with your dilema! Pain in the toucas! I am constantly annoyed at not having a delete key. I purchased a 3rd part keyboard for mac, and it was great for a little while (and it had a delete key) but then it stopped working. So, I'm headed to the Apple store today to get another keyboard...one with a NUMERIC KEYPAD!! I hope it also has a delete key. I really miss the numeric keypad...didn't realize how much until work recently switched our laptops to a new one that has the keypad. It make a huge difference in my work.

Well if you get the wired keyboard then you still have both the backspace and the delete key, except they are both called the same thing. If you get the wireless keyboard or just the laptop keyboard you can perform the 'delete' (right) function by holding down fn and hitting the normal delete (left). Apple computers are very nice machines to have, and after the time it takes to get used to apple they are really good computers. They are light, powerful, and have an excellent display (it's not all about the pixels), so if you can afford one its well worth the money. ANd if you buy a mac laptop and find after a few weeks you still don't like it, then you can install windows and make it always start up using windows. Look up apple windows bootcamp. They are fantastic keyboards.

You can also highlight a whole word with a double click over it. There is as others have posted in response before me a trick with a mac that substitutes the same function on a PC. Also the extended full apple keyboard with the 9 key at home or work where ever you use the MacbookPro more the difference is unnoticeable, and when on the road for work a bluetooth 9 key pad is small and allows numeral work like entering quantities, dollar values, price adjustments, etc. to be done with ease. I am a contractor and have the small wireless bluetooth 9 key add-on and enter measurements into my construction cad software all the time and I love this product.
Overall I would also tell you that the intuitive design of Apples Operating Systems is unparalleled and far outweighs any negatives you are describing above. The differences in how you execute a command are just the learning curve any person would encounter when changing OS or software. I said apple's setup is intuitive and by that I mean if you have a set of keys that performs one task in a program chances are the same set of keys performs similar tasks in other software written for apple products. Many of my friends have dismissed my suggestions to buy an apple always saying the main reason is the differences between systems and that It's not the same and the mac doesn't have a button for this function or that task. At the end of the day many of those friends have ended up with Apple computers . When they first get their apple I get that phone call with 20 million questions and I ask have you read your provide product info and in the programs read the help stuff know if they had I wouldn't be getting a call so they say "no". Read the literature, play with it, call with any questions you haven't been able to answer yourself in a week. Half the time I have to call them and when I do the express how happy they are with their Apple and that they answered their own questions easily.

I've used the laptop keyboard for several years now and this is the only compliant I have but it's a constant irritation. Yes you can use the Fn and delete key but that takes 2 hands since they are kitty corner to each other, as far apart as they can possibly be, and no one with hands smaller than an NBA basketball player could do this one handed, my hands are about 5" too short! Why they couldn't make it a shift/delete I can't understand. It is by far less efficient and certainly less elegant. Out of character for an Apple product and for me, a MAJOR disappointment. I did see I can remap the eject key but then I have no eject key, not what I see as a reasonable solution when shift delete would serve as well and make more intuitive sense.

In short, yes. I prefer to have both keys but having said that, I would take my apple keyboard over any other I have tried with or without the backspace key because all of the pro's of the Apple keyboard still way outweigh that single, con when compared with the rest of the consumer market.

The apple keyboard is fine. But I did notice something I never saw before. If I want to delete an entire word, I have to press FN/Delete when I highlight it. I never had to do that before. What is FN?
- Answered by Maureen B from Chicago
- Flag as inappropriate Answer 17
To simply delete things from the right of the cursor you press function (fn) then the delete key on the Mac. To delete a whole word from the left of the cursor in a non-apple word application (MS Word, PPT, Excel etc.) you press Command + Delete. In apps like Pages, Numbers and Keynote command+delete will delete the whole line but using option+delete will delete the word only. Option+delete will also work in word etc. as well. I believe that the apple keyboard and the PC/conventional keyboard is at the same level. Each have their weaknesses and each have their strengths. For me the apple keyboard is easier to use because of the keys and their style and I don't really like the 'conventional keyboard' but that is just me. Like I said use command+delete or option+delete. There is always a way around things. Do not get discourage by something so small. You could also use the arrow keys ... Advantages for me is that it is just easier to use. It is also very good looking and looks great with the backlight keyboard on!! It also has much more useful function keys (f1, f2, f3 etc.) than a PC keyboard. I hope this helped :) BUY A MAC!!! BUY A MAC!!! hahaha.

Actually if you were to buy a separate keyboard just to type with then it also has 2 keys just like the PC's do.

A peaceful atmosphere radiates from Banjul, Africa's smallest capital city. You feel that you are wandering around a village rather than a commercial centre.
Banjul, the capital of Gambia, is situated on an island, since it is separated from the mainland by a small river. The city was founded by the British in 1816 as a slave-trading centre. Today, most of its 50,000 inhabitants work in the peanut industry, as they are Gambia's main export.
The Albert market is the living heart of the city. You can easily spend a few hours wandering around there looking for a charming souvenir. A visit to Gambia's National Museum is also worthwhile. Its collection of photographs, maps and documents about archaeology, the peoples of Africa and the colonial period will certainly captivate you. Nearby, there is also the 35 metre high archway, which was built to commemorate the coup of 22 July 1994.

guitar string recommendations..... Posted by TigerTreyjpg on 2/1 at 2:57 pm I've been using Ernie Ball light guage strings for as long as I remember, 'cause that's what I was told to use 20 years ago. Anything out there that's a ton better these days? PS - I'm a pretty crappy player, with a crappier ear, and do a horrible job of going from 440 to open G/drop D (thus the need to restring a little more than most normal folks), and I only have one decent guitar right now.

Posted by Ace Midnight on 2/1 at 3:03 pm to TigerTreyjpg quote: I have to say that Fender strings, especially the lights they ship on American Strats are very impressive. I have kept them on the guitar for 10 years. Now, I don't so much play guitar as collect them, but people who both know how to play and have played my guitar have commented on the strings - they do bend well and go well with the strat type. I wouldn't recommend them for a crunchier, Les Paul sound, but I would highly for Jackson, Ibanez or Strat/Tele, espeically single coil.

Posted by Guitarbitz on 2/4 at 3:07 am to TigerTreyjpg Finding a string that suits you, your guitar, your style and gives you the sound you want is a bit of a journey. Each brand makes their strings in a slightly different way, which means there are slight tonal differences between them. So, try a few different types and gauges and find a set that suits your guitar, style and ability. Try the different manufacturers; Ernie Ball; D'Addario; Rotosound; Fender; Elixir; Martin; etc). For an electric guitar: Try different string materials. Pure nickel will give soft, mellow tones and feel smooth, Stainless Steel will give sharp, powerful tones and feel rough, Nickel plated Steel is a combination and gives the best of both with a smooth feel. Try different gauges (lighter gauges give you more treble tones and are easier to play, heavier gauges give more powerful bass tones but are hearder to play). Or look at a hybrid set, light treble strings for easy bends with heavy bass strings for that power and bass. For Acoustic guitars: Choose between Phosphor Bronze which gives a mellow, rounded tone, or 80/20 Bronze which gives bright, crisp, sharp tones. The gauge of the strings is related to the thinnest string. Gauge 12, aka 0.012, aka 12 thousandths of an inch, is the standard found on most acoustic guitars. Heavier gauge strings (e.g. 13, 14, etc) are harder to play as they have more tension but give more bass tones and volume. Lighter gauge strings (e.g. 11, 10, 9, etc) have less tension and therefore easier to play, but have more treble tones and less volume. Good Luck. Also as an after thought, take a look at this [link=(guide on when you should change your guitar strings)]http://www.guitarbitz.com/when-to-change-guitar-strings-i44[/link] Reply Back to Top |

The energy lost when a tyre is in motion is known as 'rolling resistance'. This has a direct impact on fuel consumption.
A tyre's rolling resistance score ranges from A to G. Over the life of the tyre, fitting an A rated tyre could save you up to 6 litres of fuel when compared to a G rated tyre.
A tyre's wet grip capacity is expressed in Grades from A to G.
The difference in braking distances between each grade is roughly 3m - an average car length. This makes average stopping distance between an A and G rated tyre 18m. That's 4 car lengths.
The exterior noise grade of a tyre is expressed in decibels - accompanied by one, two or three sound waves, with one wave being the best noise level performance.
To achieve the best grade, a tyre's noise level must be at least 3dB under the legal limit set by the EU.

VAIL, Colorado - Local sports chiropractor Mark Pitcher is familiar with treating professional dancers through his work with the Vail International Dance Festival, but traveling halfway across the world to work with Fang Yi Sheu, Taiwanese dancer and choreographer, at the Taiwan National Theater was a brand new experience all together.
Pitcher, a chiropractor and exercise physiologist with Vail Integrative Medical Group, first met Fang Yi Sheu while she was performing with at the 2012 Vail International Dance Festival. Fang Yi invited Pitcher to travel with her and her dance company to London, Germany and India. Two to three months of travel was not realistic for Pitcher, who is part of the successful multi-disciplinary sport medicine practice, Vail Integrative Medical Group. Fang Yi requested that Pitcher travel to Taipei, Taiwan, to provide sports therapy during the premiere of her collaborative work, "Timeless." The work featured three works. "Five Movements and Three repeats" featured Fang Yi, New York City Ballet principal dancers Wendy Whelan and Tyler Angle and New York City Ballet Soloist Craig Hall. Her own dance company Way Out performed an amazing high energy piece choreographed by Fang Yi. She also performed a duet with the incredible Akram Khan called "Gnosis".
Pitcher was able to tour some of Taipei City, but spent much of his time at rehearsals and the performances themselves. He joked, "There were a few long days, but there was always time for dumplings."
Although there were a few instances where the dancers and musicians needed immediate treatment so they could carry on the performance, most treatment was directed at addressing less acute problems that impacted the dancer's quality of movement.
Dancers present some unique challenges to the manual therapist. To maintain their craft, dancers practice every single day.
"While that practice and repetition yields incredible results artistically, it can lead to overuse injuries and some characteristic muscle imbalances," Pitcher said.
"He helped to diagnose and explain to me issues that I had been struggling with in my back and hip for most of this past year," Whelan said. "Upon seeing him, my body has finally begun to unravel and unlock its deep holding pattern."
From our seats in the audience we think of them first as artists, but make no mistake, they are also high level athletes. This is why sports medicine practitioners like Pitcher become an integral part of a dance company's support team.
"When Fang Yi and Akram Khan tell everyone that there might not have been a performance without you, you feel pretty darn good," Pitcher said.
This recent trip to Taipei, was described by Pitcher as one of the best work assignments. He credits his and VIMG's work with the Vail International Dance Festival for exposing him to the international dance community. Although travelling while maintaining a busy practice is challenging, he looks forward to additional projects like this in 2013.
Vail Integrative Medical Group is a nationally renowned clinic specializing in a comprehensive team approach to sports and spinal injuries. They have three locations in Vail, Edwards, and Eagle, Colorado. Visit them online at www.vailhealth.com or on www.facebook.com/myvimg.

When draw will start? When we will know about GP assigment?
When draw will start? When we will know about GP assigment?
Hardly, as the US has two very strong dance teams who can be counted on to contend for World medals: B/A and D/W. Gregory/Petukhov's best Worlds finish was 9th, in 2006, so they were never a podium contender.
It's a very different situation with the Ladies. The US hasn't won a Ladies World medal since 2006, and Sasha was one of the medalists that year.
My earlier reply: http://www.goldenskate.com/forum/sho...&postcount=341
Maybe I am blaming the USFSA for the reaction of the general new media. After Sasha's announcement several newpapers ran stories along the lines, thank goodness Sasha is coming back since our present group of ladies is so awful.
As for the USFSA itself, the news stories on the USFS and Icenetwork sites did, in my opinion, give star status to Sasha. David Raith went on about what an attractive addition she would be to any of the Grand Prix events, giving the impression that he was lobbying the other event organizers to support Sasha's bid. The USFSA scheduled a new conference for the big announcement, then moved it up a week when the story was leaked prematurely.
There were no big announcements, newsconferences and quotes in the papers that Alissa Czisny has been offered a spot in Skate America, and she has accepted! Or Rachael Flatt has been offered a place in Skate America, and she has accepted!
Everyone else except Sasha has to wait for the meeting and see how it turns out for them. Or, if they do know something in advance, that news was not released to great fanfare two weeks before the formal draw.
I sure hope it will be the United States Champion, Alissa Czisny.

It seems with some degree of fairness that Sasha is the one coming out of retirement. Alissa, Rachael or any other active US Lady will have to wait. If that does not seem fair - I don't see that it is so awful either. And as far as I know, SA has also offered an invitaion to Michelle.
Sasha is the reigning Olympic Silver medalist. If Alissa or Rachael ever achieve such a lofty position then they too may be treated with a higher degree of respect.
Or is that "it" factor = $$$. Anyway you cut it I haven't felt this much interest in US Skating since,,,,,,,,,Sasha left.
Don't forget that the U.S. skaters are asked their GP preferences beforehand (though no guarantees they will will get what they want, of course). It's possible that Alissa could have requested 2 GPs other than Skate America (like Skate Canada, which seems to be a good competition for her).
I think that Sasha Cohen is a bigger name to the general public, and therefore to NBC and the rest of the media, than the top US ladies from 2007-2009, and that therefore US Figure Skating is happy to capitalize on her return to promote Skate America and Nationals.
Your post 368 read:
Are we talking about USFS being impressed enough with Rachael and Caroline to name them to the Olympic team if they medal at Nationals? Or being impressed enough to invite them to Skate America? Because medaling at last year's GPF is not "the only thing that matters" in terms of this year's invitations.
No, I meant not impressed enough to be promoting Rachael and Caroline as enthusiastically as they are promoting Sasha.
"The only thing that matters" remark was in response to speculation about whether doing well in the 2009-2010 Grand Prix would give a skater a leg up in the Olympic selection deliberations. My opinion was that just doing pretty well in the series would not be enough to trigger this bullet (bullet number two in the selection criteria).Originally Posted by gkelly
To me (reserving the right to be wrong, as always), the stated criteria are very clear.
(1) Placement at 2010 U.S. Nationals (This is the most important by far. Will carry the day all by itself except in unusual circumstances.)
(2) Placement and strength of field in the 2009-2010 Grand Prix Final. To me, this means that just squeaking into the finals is not enough to earn you any brownie points. Rather, you have to place well against a top-notch field.)
My only comment on the selection of athletes for the 2009-2010 Grand Prix was that, according to the ISU rules, Sasha is not eligible for any other assignment except Skate America. But USFS representatives are on record as saying that they hope she gets a second assignment anyway.
Well, as Janetfan pints out, sometimes in life you have to ignore the rules. Perhaps less often in sports. But the question is, is the Return of Sasha Cohen of sufficient urgency that the rules ought to be set aside to accommodate her?

I thought Hersh was promoting Sasha more than the USFS. I haven/t heard anything further on Sasha since the announcement that she was accepted for SA.
I've not read anything about her or from Lake Placid. They mus be advertising it up there. I know when I went to Atlantic City, they were still advertiising Kwan, who eventually did not show.
Well, if you go to the official Lake Placid site, Belbin and Agosto are the featured skaters. I wonder if they know something that they haven't told the rest of us yet?
Personally, IMHO, USFS showed little respect to the ladies who have stayed in the game or have worked their way up the ranks since 2006, by announcing Cohen prematurely. Everyone should have heard the announcements collectively this coming weekend. For USFS, it's marketing and all about selling tickets. Not much more complicated than that.

The number of theaters capable of projecting movies at high frame rates (48 fps, 60 fps) has nearly doubled since The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey arrived a year ago, according to The Wrap:
The studio is substantially expanding the number of theaters this time around. As many as 750 theaters will exhibit "The Desolation of Smaug" in the enhanced projection — up from roughly 450 theaters the first time.
Internationally, the increase in HFR 3D theaters is even more impressive, with Desolation playing on almost 2,500 screens, up from 1,669.
Warner Bros. has intentionally been very quiet about HFR 3D in the months and weeks leading up to Desolation's release. Last year, of course, discussion of AUJ's 48 fps 3D was ubiquitous, with Peter Jackson, WETA and others writing articles and doing interviews about it, and with critics, movie/Hobbit fans, and tech enthusiasts all weighing in.
The response from critics leaned towards the negative, even though the great majority of movie fans seemingly either loved the experience outright or appreciated it while desiring improvements/tweaks. So it makes sense to me that Warner Bros. wants the media's focus to be on the movie and not its format this time (Peter Jackson told a reporter that "technology drove a lot of the reviews" of AUJ).
Press screenings for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug have all been in standard, 24 fps 3D to prevent this.
I think this is a good thing – this year the talk regarding HFR 3D will almost all be from Hobbit fans, and not fogey critics. I'm very much looking forward to reading people's thoughts especially given rumors that Jackson has taken steps to mitigate the most` common complaints people has regarding AUJ's HFR 3D.
I'd bet that the overall buzz will be very good for HFR 3D this time around, thereby building support and momentum for future high frame rate movies. Last time the negative noise from 24 fps traditionalists (most professional movie critics) was just too loud, resulting in the specious and commonly parroted conclusion that the HFR 3D experiment was a failure, an d coloring reviews of the movie.
The Wrap's story confirms what I had long suspected due to my observations of packed HFR 3D showings: that HFR 3D was in great demand, selling out theaters many weeks after opening night:
"With the original 'Hobbit,' we kept selling out of tickets for our high frame rate auditoriums," Russ Nunley, a spokesman for Regal, said. " There was a huge demand from moviegoers who wanted to see the film exactly the way director Peter Jackson shot it."
Regal's HFR 3D screen count has increased dramatically, going from 100 last year to almost 400 this year.
IMAX has doubled their worldwide HFR 3D screen count to 100+, IMAX Entertainment CEO Greg Foster tells The Wrap, adding that the number will rise since IMAX is still negotiating HFR 3D locations in China.

"We sell. Or else."
These words of David Ogilvy sound simple, but are deeply meaningful to us. David began the agency in 1948 and built Ogilvy & Mather into one of the most legendary branding companies in the world. Underpinning this is the philosophy of "divine discontent" — the simple belief that in order to be creative one must be permanently dissatisfied and always seeking to be better than good.
Our Business Model
We believe that our full range of services on a global scale are a unique strength. Earlier than others (as early as the 1980s), we diversified away from the advertising discipline alone. Our core disciplines of advertising, direct marketing, public relations and activation have therefore developed in depth as well as in breadth. Each of our disciplines is best-in-class and provides not just integrated execution (which can be superficial) but integrated thinking. The disciplines live within a tightly defined matrix "country system" with shared resources and a common P&L, but enough separation to ensure specialist excellence. Years of working together in cross-discipline teams means that we are probably the only agency in the world that integrates as a matter of habit, with real depth, wherever we operate.
Digital Dominance
We believe we are the most digital of the major networks. We have nearly 4,000 digital specialists around the world. Our point of view about digital is that it is not a silo apart or a "pure play" but something which is transforming all the disciplines in which we operate. Digital is therefore embedded at Ogilvy. We have undertaken in the last few years an aggressive plan to digitalize the agency. This manifests itself in cross-company practices, ranging from social to e-commerce, from mobile to data-driven creativity. A Digital Council in the agency is chaired by Global CEO Miles Young, and the digital agenda's represented by our Chief Digital Officer, Brandon Berger.
Founder Culture
Finally, we have an especially strong agency culture no matter which Ogilvy office around the world you are in. The values and principles of our company were laid down by David Ogilvy when he founded the company at age 36, and his spirit imbues the company as strongly today as it did then. The critical point about their values is that they are strongly humanistic; the people who work here should be cared for, and they should behave with honesty and good manners.
New York, N.Y., March 23, 2015 -- Ogilvy & Mather announced today that it has come together with Hogarth Worldwide, a sister WPP company, to launch H&O (Hogarth & Ogilvy) - a new company that brings the resources and technology of the world's leading production agency into the world's most creative agency.
Headquartered in London, H&O will stand alongside Hogarth with a presence in 48 Ogilvy offices. This will create the largest marketing implementation group in the world.
Through this venture, Ogilvy's production unit, RedWorks, will be consolidated into this new entity, giving clients access to the traditional strengths and global network of RedWorks in addition to Hogarth's unique offerings – full broadcast and moving image capability, a market leading language and transcreation service and proprietary technology solutions.
Hogarth opened for business in 2008 with 14 people operating out of an attic room above a shop near London's Carnaby Street. Since then, the agency has undergone rapid expansion, growing to over 1,200 employees servicing such major clients as Dyson, GSK, Mattel, Vodafone and others across 21 offices in all four regions of the world. They have made a major impact on the production world since launch: in Television Post Production their Gramercy Park Studios facility in London is one of the newest and most advanced in Europe; in print production they offer global production at scale; in digital Hogarth has developed a range of innovative technologies in-house (including the asset management platform ZONZA and web publishing technology I/AM in partnership with Microsoft) and in transcreation Hogarth is generally recognized as the world's largest provider.
Commenting on the joint venture, Miles Young, Worldwide Chairman and CEO of Ogilvy & Mather said:
"I have always believed that to be a truly integrated world-class communications agency, we need to be best-in-class in each and every one of our specialist disciplines. Marketing implementation is no exception especially in this new age of marketing and branding. H&O is our response to the ever-changing needs of our clients, and our growing role as content producers and distributors. It will be an ideas-delivery engine sitting at the heart of Ogilvy that will change the conversation about how brands are brought to the market dynamically."
Barry Jones, CEO of Hogarth Worldwide explains his reasons for choosing to partner with O&M:
"H&O is a new concept. It puts a creative realization engine at the heart of a creative powerhouse. With Hogarth going from strength to strength, having H&O in parallel gives us the opportunity to bring all of our capabilities directly to Ogilvy's clients."
Jonathan Adler will join the group to serve as H&O's Global CEO. Ginny Maycox, currently COO of O&M West will be Global CFO. Duncan Stokes, who as Global CEO of RedWorks for the last two years has grown RedWorks into the world's largest creative production company, will lead H&O in EAME as well as taking global responsibility with Jonathan Adler for the change management. RedWorks veterans Xavier Carou and Michael Burgess will be CEO in Latina America and Asia Pacific respectively. While in North America, Matt Bonin will be Chief Production Officer and Jonathan Parker will be Chief Operations Officer.
Jonathan Adler comments on his new appointment:
"I have spent my career working in advertising and marketing services, essentially bringing great ideas to life. I don't think there is a sector or discipline I've not touched and I truly love the creative process. The opportunity to combine two great global companies was irresistible, and I am extremely excited about what the future holds for H&O, helping deliver Ogilvy's vision of the future."

Impedance measurement is important not only in passive components industry but also various industries such as materials, power supply, and so on. Physical parameters like capacitance (C), inductance (L) and resistance (R) are measured based on the impedance. Also, material parameters (permittivity: ε, permeability: μ) can be derived through impedance measurements. Keysight has a complete line of impedance test equipment and test accessories to help your measurement. When you choose an impedance measurement product from Keysight, you get more than accurate and reliable test results.

Rafael Nadal was spotted on the Melbourne Park practice courts again as he continues to sharpen his game for the first major of the year, the Aussie Open.
The world's top baller also debuted the new Nike Short Sleeve top in white + neo turquoise he'll most likely be wearing during his campaign this fortnight. I'm guessing Rafa's wear-testing the shirt and getting comfortable with it before having to wear it in match play.
Okay here's the negative: it has sleeves! But I do love the bright yet airy feel of the colors and it's fitted enough to still show off his, eh, goods.
I suggest the Matador give the Rafanatics at least one measly shirtless practice before they're forced to watch two weeks of him covered up.
It's only fair.

FASHION FIX: Rafa gets more practice in, reveals new Nike gear
Labels: Australian Open, fashion, Nike, Rafael Nadal, style, tennis
20 comments:
Dear Rafa... when, oh when will you finally ditch your shirts and go topless? *trys new serenading technique to make him take his shirt off*
Anyway, the colorway is... um... interesting... It looks good on him (like everthing else) but I'm not totally feeling it right now.
This will probably first come when I see it in motion... You think he will match it with a pink bandana ;)- johanneJanuary 16, 2009 at 7:57 AM
Ditto on the far left picture. YOWZA.
I like this outfit better with the white shorts, not the blue checkered ones they're showing on his website. Feels like too much.
And even though there's sleeves (sad face), this is Rafa we're talking about and let's be honest: pretty hard for the boy to look bad. Now take off your f*cking clothes and let's do this :D
Thanks for my morning dose of the Matador. It's 17degrees(F) below in Chicago right now and this is definitely helping me warm up. Gracias!! - Uvijek ArgenJanuary 16, 2009 at 7:58 AM
"Rafa, Don Johnson from the 80's called. He want his Miami Vice T-shirt back!!"
ReplyDelete Rafa babe,
Please do not say I did not warn you. I am buying my ticket online right now to Melbourne. Please be ready to be stripped down by my teeth, and wear something.. really thin. Wet is my preference. And white.
p.s - I know you totally did it on purpose. You are longing for me to strip you down with my teeth, lick you between the torn fabric, and all those naughty things I do. Baaaad Rafa. Bad boy.- AnonymousJanuary 16, 2009 at 9:12 AM
Incredible, anybody else wearing this Miami Vice/Ken doll/sorbetto shirt would look at least mildly ridiculous, and Rafa looks actually great. He works that shirt, the shirt is not taking him over.
Now I'm positive he would look good in anything. That's what being confident in your own skin does. Miami Vice - LOL!
I'm wondering about the check shorts too. He's yet to wear them so maybe he also thinks it's too much - the bright t-shirt, the check shorts, the bright sneakers.
And screw the sunscreen - throw on some of that oil + balsamic dipping sauce. Just ask Rafa about it. I mean, how do you think he gets that golden brown look? And it's lickable.- AnonymousJanuary 16, 2009 at 10:25 AM
Actually, Rafa likes to wear pink off court.
Remember these with his birthday cake at RG 2007:
Now, which is yummier: that little chocolate racquet or Rafa? - AnonymousJanuary 16, 2009 at 12:02 PM
How can I phrase this without sounding like a perv ... Ah, forget it: Rafa's displaying some nice "package" in his new tighter shorts ... Me likee.
*scampers away red-faced* anon 1:25/babz - how about Rafa jumping out of the choco cake (yeah that ones too small but just imagine) covered in chocolate and icing. would he be considered edible then?
anon 3:02 - i believe pervs are welcomed here too
*checks DtL membership application*
yeah, in fact the fine print clearly states its a pre-requisite. perv on anon. you have my blessing.- johanneJanuary 16, 2009 at 12:36 PM
yeah, i don't think Rafa needs any chocolate cake to be considered edible. at least not for this rabid rafanatic. i'd find more than one way to devour that bod, believe you me.
sorry, had to get my perv on ;) oh man, the mens side...I am gonna consider djokovic out, and federer has not had a good start to the year, BUT I think we all know the grandslams are on such a different level than regular season tournamnets. True season champs can shine in grandslams, even though they may have rough tournaments..and its difficult to say that a Murray, or Gulbis can take it. Its five sets now and people are pushed to the limit, and I dont know if Murray can control his emotions when things get tight...I am rooting for roddick of course, but to see Murray win would be cool too.

Wow! the color is pretty in pink and in baby blue........
wow, rafa is babylicious!!!!!!!!!!!!

my biggest problem was that, I really want to test. I'm run Arch (testing repo) with KDE, but I put down Mint with Cinnamon as the OS I would test it on. To improve my chances . Then my Steam ID is left from my CounterStrike Source days. I stopped playing when I switched to Linux fulltime. Dual booting is to much hassel for me. I bearly had hw to play CSS in Windows so I did not even try with Wine
So my computer is not up to date with what a gaming rig would be. For my daily video with vdpau and browsing it does not need to. If I get selected I would go out and buy a new Linux rig.
That would then be a Intel so I could test with Intel gfx drivers. But also a Nvidia card for trouble free living.
Also if there is a Intel gfx driver bug. I can still test more using the Nvidia card and is not stuck waiting on a driver update.
But its hard to know how Valve reason for the people they choose.

Thank you Dallas,& Finch,
Finch I a am the treatment chair here in district 93 in MT. I am involved in the "Bridgeing the Gap" program here.I have quite a few people that I have contacted before and after they get out of treatment. I get them to meetings or try and the next thing I know I am hearing that I am there sponsor. These people I cannot even get them to go to meetings let alone get them to read the Big Book. Most are like me still on probation so maybe they think it sounds good to say they have a sponsor.Buy the way I only have 4 months left on a 5 year probation. I also have a good relationship with the Judge here in my town we talk often and the last time I talked I found out that I was sponsoring more people at lest that is what they told her.Of course she doesn't ask me anything thing about them.I let her know when we became friends that what goes on in meetings or out stays there.Well I thank for your replys and I will keep coming back.This is great to be able to go to talk to people like me anytime I wont. Thank You for allowing me to share.
