While the Iraq War is being fought halfway around the world, we find relevancy right here on campus. UW Oshkosh has students and alumni who have already seen the war firsthand in the Middle East or are awaiting the order to serve abroad. This multimedia project -- which includes a book, a series of podcasts and a photo exhibit -- gives these student soldiers and Marines a forum to tell the world why they enlisted, what they did and what they felt at the front lines of war.
These UW Oshkosh students and alumni have seen a world that most of us will never see, and War: Through Their Eyes is their story.
The interviews are conducted by Grace Lim's Spring 2009 Writing for the Media class. Photos are taken by student photographer Amber Patrick.

Everyone is talking about this amazing cake. How did they get that texture? Any ideas!?
AI believe it's this
I ADORE this cake - one of my favourites this year. The Patchwork Cutter mini quilting tool would work for this no problem.
I'm wondering if there a texture sheet/embossing mat anybody has come across for this pattern also?
I really love how the sugar flowers are arranged asymmetrically on this cake. Really complements a one-shouldered wedding dress! The cake is by Sweet & Saucy Cakes.
This is how Ron Ben Israel does it:
This is how my cake turned out when I used this technique:
Thanks so much for that link, Annie! Your cake came out beautifully - I love the eyelet lace effect too! (or broderie anglaise lace as we call it across the pond!)

Montgomery was the first capital of the Confederacy. Maybe we can convince Alabama and a few more Red Southern parasites on the Federal fisc to try again. We can do better without them.
Martin, that's a fair point, though I would quibble that most of the Tea Party doesn't self-identify as a white organisation in quite the way the NAACP does as a black one.
Giraffe, I'm not sure Ron Paul is a good benchmark for electoral success (or sanity, but that's a different matter)
Put another way: Both the NAACP and Tea Party welcome people of all races, but their agenda's are most fervently supported by a single demographic group.
Lafayette: "What's a "white" organisation? My guess is that a politician that was supported by an organisation that self-identified as such would actually be in big trouble..."
Endorsements from either the Black Panthers or KKK (a "black" and a "white" organization, respectively) would kill a candidate's electoral chances because they're not viewed as mainstream.
There are mainstream "black" groups that a candidate can be endorsed by, such as the NAACP.
The most similar mainstream "white" group to the NAACP would be the Tea Party: The NAACP is a majority (but not exclusively) black organization that takes the view that minorities people are underrepresented and are being prejudiced against, and therefore it's the job of government to counter-act that. The Tea Party is a majority (but not exclusively) white organization that takes the view that "traditional" Americans (mostly non-Latino whites) are being ignored and are having "their rights trampled" by the current Administration, and it's the job of the government to counter-act the cosmopolitanization (increasing diversity, decreased religiousness) of America.
As Kilgore notes in the link provided by DIA: "Sparks seems to have beaten Davis by pulling a significant (perhaps 40% or more) minority of African-American voters while trouncing him among white voters."
This seems to justify Mr. Davis' strategy since he was still able to pull 60% of the "black" vote while campaigning more directly for "white" votes.
It would be interesting to know what the numbers on "trouncing" are.
hedgefundguy, 95+% of blacks voted for Obama in every state in the Union. 90+% of blacks voted for Kerry, too. Blacks vote Democratic. There's no particular distinction by state and only a slight distinction based on the color of the candidate. In contrast, whites in many states are willing to vote for a black candidate. In New York, California, Colorado, and North Carolina, for instance. In Alabama, not so much.
Ron Paul accepted money from known white separatist groups.
His campaign was very uncoordinated and suffering from bad strategy and planning. Democrats don't have time for this sort of self-serving maneuvering anyway. The health care bill was very important and even people in Alabama won't vote for Democrats that oppose it.
What's a "white" organisation? My guess is that a politician that was supported by an organisation that self-identified as such would actually be in big trouble...
You failed to tell us what percentage of blacks voted for
In other words, your brush is not large enough.
"if a black candidate is required to eschew black organisations to run a race-neutral campaign"
Who required him to? Couldn't he just have reached a dumb conclusion on his own?

New Updates and Features of Windows 8.1
Now that you have Windows 8.1 installed, take a quick look at some of the important updates and new features you're going to find in Windows 8.1.
1 Windows 8.1 provides new Start screen options.Having only two sizes for the tiles on the Start screen, as was the case in Windows 8, really wasn't sufficient to accommodate every different type of live tile. Windows 8.1 provides a number of different sizes so that live tiles can display useful information. In addition to the new tile sizes, Windows 8.1 makes it easier for you to group and name sets of tiles. You can also choose your own background image for the Start screen. |
2 You have easier access to settings in Windows 8.1.In Windows 8.1, you can access most settings directly in the modern interface. You can access various settings by swiping in from the right edge of the screen (or by clicking in the lower-right corner of the screen). |
3 Windows 8.1 provides a more interesting lock screen.The lock screen is the first screen you see after Windows 8.1 starts and before you enter your password. It's also the screen that displays after you've left your computer idle for a while. In Windows 8.1, the lock screen can do more than simply show the current date and time. Now, the lock screen can display useful information like the current weather conditions or notifications regarding upcoming appointments or new messages. In addition, the lock screen can even display a slide show of images stored on your PC. |
4 It's easier to find apps in Windows 8.1.The Start screen is the place where you find all the apps that are installed on your PC. But, you probably have a limited amount of space on your display, so it can be just a little difficult at times to locate specific apps. Windows 8.1 makes it much easier for you to find all your apps. In Windows 8.1, you can swipe up from the bottom of the screen (or click the down arrow below the left side of the apps that appear on the Start screen) to view all your apps in one place. |
5 Windows 8.1 provides a new Start (button).If you've used Windows for a long time, you probably got into the habit of using the Start button and may have wondered why it didn't appear in Windows 8. If so, you aren't alone. The lack of a Start button was one of the most common complaints people made about Windows 8. Windows 8.1 brings back the Start button, but this new Start button does a whole lot more than any of its predecessors ever did. |
6 Windows 8.1 takes finding stuff to a whole new level.When you start typing, the Search opens and includes apps, settings, files, and even results from the web. For example, the figure shows what happens when you type power. The results include not only things like Windows PowerShell and the power and sleep settings but also results such as the winning numbers for the Powerball lottery. |
7 In Windows 8.1, you can easily open and use multiple apps.Depending on your monitor configuration, Windows 8.1 enables you to open as many as eight apps at the same time. Unless you have a very high resolution monitor, though, you'll only be able to open two apps on a single monitor or four apps on a dual monitor display. |
8 Windows 8.1 makes it much easier for you to share all your important files between your devices.Although SkyDrive was available in Windows 8, the service is much more convenient to use in Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 enables you to set SkyDrive as the default location for saving files, thus making it a lot easier to share those files. SkyDrive is especially handy for Windows Phone 8 users. You can automatically store photos you take with your phone on SkyDrive so that they're easily available on your Windows PCs. |
9 The Windows 8.1 Store is far easier to use because it's now a snap to search for what you want.If you've used Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8, you've probably had a look at the Windows Store. The Windows Store is the place where you find all sorts of apps, both free and paid. But if you've spent any time in the old Windows Store, you know that it can be difficult to find exactly what you want. Windows 8.1 improves the Windows Store experience. |

NCQA Reports Kaiser Permanente Hawaii's Health Plan has Highest Rates in the Country for Mammograms
Honolulu, HI (Vocus) October 9, 2009 -- Kaiser Permanente Hawaii leads the nation in mammography screenings, according to the National Committee on Quality Assurance's (NCQA) Quality Compass® report for 2009. The data provided by the private, non-profit organization dedicated to improving health care quality, found that among all reporting health plans across the nation, Kaiser Permanente in Hawaii has the highest breast cancer screening rate for women age 42 to 69.
"Our remarkable performance in breast cancer screening reflects a very strong commitment on our part to saving and improving our members' lives through prevention and early detection," said Executive Medical Director Geoffrey Sewell, MD. "We're all committed to making sure our members get the preventive services they need, and our technology helps us to reach out and encourage this important aspect of care. What being number one in breast cancer screening really means is that women in Hawaii who trust Kaiser Permanente with their care are less likely to die from breast cancer. That's something we're all very proud of."
The 2009 Quality Compass report showed that, of all reporting health plans, Kaiser Permanente Hawaii had the highest breast cancer screening rate in the nation, with 85.1 percent of women age 42 to 69, or more than 25,100 patients, receiving their recommended mammograms. The national average is slightly over 72 out of 100.
Kaiser Permanente's electronic medical record, Kaiser Permanente HealthConnect®, flags the record of any woman that is due for a mammogram. This record is accessible to Kaiser Permanente's entire network of more than 410 physici

Electrical switching in germanium telluride glasses containing metallic atoms (Cu and Ag) has been investigated. All these glasses are found to exhibit memory switching. The switching fields of these glasses are compared with the thermal parameters evaluated from DSC studies and the results are explained on the basis of the thermal model. The composition dependence of the switching field and the thermal parameters show interesting Variations at the critical compositions which correspond to the rigidity percolation and the chemical thresholds of these glasses.

Our 1985 Eagle 10 Bus Conversion Project
Page 1
This photo was taken in Apache Junction, AZ in October, 2006
For those of you who have followed my bus project pages, it has been a long hard struggle over a five year period. However, all of that hard work has paid off!! In March of 2006 we took off on our maiden voyage. We went to California for a cruise that Pat had earned and a trade show in Pomona (FMCA). We also got to do some sightseeing along the way.
If you want to see what was involved with this project AND have lots of time to spare <grin> READ ON!

Total nights spent in Bus
Sates the bus has been in
States Visited in Bus as of 1/17/11
Project Summary
The photo, above left, was taken at 9:45 AM on December 19, 2000. Jim had just driven the bus from Mineral Wells Texas to our home in Evergreen. We first looked at the bus in June 2000. We purchased it during our sixth Bus Conversion Convention (Laughlin Nevada - October 15, 2000).
The photo on the right shows the exterior as of August 2003. All signs of its previous "commercial life" have been removed. The exterior will remain in this condition for about a year while we continue to work on the conversion and start to enjoy traveling. The paint between the ship lap aluminum siding and the windows is semi-gloss white primer that looks pretty good.
Eagle buses were very popular as entertainer buses in the '70s and 80's and you still see them today. They were famous for their rubber torsion springs that gave a very smooth ride combined with superior handling.
The bus was originally owned by the Houston Metro Transit Authority. It is a fairly low mileage bus (<500K miles). It has a 6V92 Detroit two stroke diesel pusher engine and a Voith automatic transmission. It is 40 feet long and 8 feet wide.
Our plans are to do a quick conversion so that the unit is fully functional and comfortable. We hope to have it in use in the second quarter of 2001. We will then use it in that condition for about two years while we plan the full conversion and Jim attempts to complete at least one of his car projects! (Editor's note: YEAH, RIGHT!! - read on as to how quickly a "quick conversion" goes)
Well, here it is December 2003 and I am still behind on this project (what's new?). Even though I am semi-retired, I have been kept very busy with consulting, setting up a new business, and various other projects. I have also been pretty busy with lots of family activities All of that, together with a bit of procrastination sure adds up to a project that continues to defy the projected schedule. However, I am making progress and should be on the road in early Feb. 2004.
If you looked at the bus today you would not begin to think that it had that much work in it.
Lets take a look at some of the activity in chronological order:
The project
Interior as received
interior stripped
February 2001. Stripped out the interior of the overhead racks and cut out the heater ducts. During this time I also worked on the battery/starter problems, installed a block heater and worked on the design of the water tanks.
March/April 2001. Removed all of bus air conditioner and heating hardware and removed two piece air operated entry door. I also installed a new air compressor and dryer for the airbrake system as well as relocating the "wet tank". Each of these jobs were quite messy and difficult.
May/June 2001. Primary work this period included checking and repairing wheel bearings/seals, building a one piece front door and installation of a more conventional fuel filling system. Each of these items are documented in more detail below.
Hubs with new studs
new wheel seals
Several of the wheel seals were leaking. I pulled the hubs and drums and installed new parts as necessary. While the front and bogey hubs were off, I installed new, longer, studs so that aluminum wheels could be installed at a later date.
Drill and tap for speedo
Lower tube for new door
Fitting door to jam
Door striker plate
The speedometer on the bus did not work (common problem). As a result, I purchased an aftermarket unit that uses two studs mounted in the drum of the driver front wheel. These studs pass by a magnetic pickup in order to send a pulse to the speedometer. The picture above shows me tapping a hole for the stud. Note (1/1/04): I did not feel comfortable with the holes in the brake drum and later had to replace on of the drums. I moved this drum to the bogey and put the new drum in it's place. On the new drum, I welded the studs on with a mig welder which keeps the heat to a minimum.
The two piece air operated door of the Eagles is a big problem. Often they don't work well and they take up a big part of the opening. I built a new one piece door. As you can see from the third photo from the left, the door must be curved to match the contour of the bus. The door frame is 1 1/4 inch square steel tubing. I cut multiple notches in the tubing to form the curves. Also, typical RV type door latches are not very strong. I bought a Freightliner truck door and used all of the hardware—makes a very strong latch. The striker plate hardware is shown on the right. For the hinge, I used a large stainless steel "piano" hinge and built a special plate, welded to the bus vertical frame tube, that has blind nuts for attaching the hinge.
Starting opening for left fuel door
Repaired left fuel filler
The fuel filling system is quite a story unto itself. The Houston Metro fleet used a special quick connect system with the filler on the passenger side only. Apparently, they would hook up the hose and come back a half hour later to a filled bus. Worked well for them, but not so well for me. When I tried to fill the tank on my way home from Dallas, it was painfully slow and the truck type filler nozzles would just barely fit. The standard Eagle buses had a much larger fill system with filling capability on both sides of the bus. I purchased, used, all of the hardware needed to convert to a standard system. The installation was extremely difficult. The parts that bolted to the tank were almost impossible to get to (located up under the bus just in front of the rear end and only enough room for one arm). I had to cut a new opening in the left side of the bus and weld in the new filler box. Before I could do that, I had to repair the purchased box, because it came out of a very rusted old bus. The filler box on the right side had to be replaced as well. It was not in too bad of shape and went in much easier than the left box.
July 2001. This month I finished the door structure and worked on the driver's window frame (see below for reason). I also ground all of the paint off the side between the windows and the aluminum siding in order to remove the decals and some pretty bad paint.
When I ordered the RV type windows for the bus, two of them were for the door and a matching one for the drivers window. Because of the door size, the drivers window had to be re-framed in order to make it the proper size.
August 2001 to April 2002. I did not get much done during these months. My work schedule was very hectic and I spent quite a bit of time on some of my other projects. Never really ignored the project, as I kept buying parts and thought a lot about various sub-projects. Also kept up with all of the bus related internet activities.
April/May 2002. Well, I started back on the bus again. During these two months, I began work on the generator sound box, built the rear bed platform, reinforced the rusted tubing in the frame and started building the wall dividers. I will add a little detail on some of those activities below.
Bed frame beams
Bed frame and insullation
I had made a decision to build the bed frame with a structure that would raise the engine area opening 13 inches. I also opened up the area drastically to allow better engine access. By raising the engine bay, I will be able to install a late model four stroke truck engine if I win the lottery. In the mean time it makes working on the engine components much easier. Since I removed quite a bit of floor structure, I made the bed base frames as trusses and then covered them with 1/8 inch steel plate. Obviously, that is a case of overkill, but what else would you expect of an engineer on his own project. The frame for the mattress was made out of 1 1/4 inch square steel tubing sandwiched with 3/8 inch plywood. In between is sheet foam insulation. The mattress frame will be hinged to allow access to the engine.
Rear cross member reinforcement
Bed frame and cross member
5 4 Another provision for an engine swap down the road was the build a rear cross member reinforcement beam. This was made of square tubing and then 1/8 inch plate was welded on both sides. The reinforcement beam was then welded to the existing beam. The design was such that the existing beam could later be cut and removed from the bus to allow the new engine to fit and yet the structure would still be as strong as the original design. The picture on the left shows the completed bed structure and the new rear cross member in place. You will also see some very large angle iron running along the sides of the wall. This was to reinforce some areas that had rusted. More about that in the next paragraph.
Rust at floor level
Tube and angle reinforcement
Insullation and double tubes
Plywood walls
As noted previously, I had to do some reinforcing where some frame tubes had rusted. The photo above show the worst area. Eagles are pretty famous for having rust problems. I had inspected most of the normal places and did not find anything significant. Because I had planned to do a quick conversion, I had not planned to remove the existing lower wall covering. However, I thought I ought to just make a quick check and the rest is history.
This particular rust comes from water/condensation. running off the windows and down the inside of the wall. Some people simply remove the tubes and weld in new ones. That can be done if you remove the skin of the bus, but I was not doing that. Instead, I cleaned up all of the rust, painted POR 15 rust killer and then special primer on all of the tubes. Then I welded 3 inch angle iron the full length of both sides of the bus. I welded the angle iron to the wall tubes and floor beams. I also "doubled-up" the tubing where the rust was particularly bad (see picture third from left). (BTW, I have to put this rust into context — I have seen Eagles where the tubes were almost nonexistent for several inches above the floor, so my rust was not real bad).
After the rust repair was done, I insulated the walls with 1 1/2 inch rigid foam. The walls were then covered with 3/8 inch plywood.
June/July 2002. This period I built and installed the trailer hitch, finished up the fuel filler system, started converting the emergency roof hatches to air conditioning openings, and started installing the electrical equipment.
Installing a heavy duty trailer hitch in and Eagle is a real challenge. There is lots of equipment that gets in the way. I made several components that bolt to the frame side rails and bolt to each other in order to make the unit strong and removable.

People were enquiring about the 4000-SC - I have a 4000SC-50 which I am about to start experimenting with. I also have a protocol description for the bfs boot code stuff so I'll be writing a basic bfs server rsn. I have no graphics card for this thing so I'll be using a serial console at least for the forseeable future. I've also still got one running RISC/OS which helps (that for example is where I got the bfs protocol description) btw, how is the port going for the magnum 3000 series? I've also got one of them (a 3020 I think). I'm hoping that sooner or later I can get both it and the 4000 running the same binaries - is this likely to happen? (ie I really would prefer to run the 4000SC in big endian mode). David |

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Weeks before a major part of the Affordable Care Act takes effect, the fight to stop it from becoming law played out in Charlotte Wednesday.
Starting October 1, a marketplace at www.healthcare.gov will offer open enrollment for everyone to shop for insurance among bidding insurance companies.
On Wednesday, several Tea Party groups traveling around the country stopped in Charlotte, hoping to put pressure on federal lawmakers, specifically their fellow Republicans.
Senator Richard Burr and Congressman Robert Pittenger have been steadfastly against Obamacare , voting against it and voting for dozens of repeals. But like many Republicans across the country, they ve rejected calls to shut down the government over the issue.
In 2010, they all swore to put an end to this. So the question is, where are they now, asked Brent Bozell, co-founder of ForAmerica and the Exempt America Tour.
Bozell and other conservative groups are hoping that enough Republicans will step in before the marketplace opens in a few weeks. Stripping the law of its funding, he says, is the most direct approach.
If you fund it, then you own it. You don't blame the Democrats anymore, he said.
Instead, Pittenger said weeks ago he d prefer to take a more targeted approach.
While I support efforts to defund Obamacare, the political reality is that goal is not currently achievable. Senator Harry Reid would never let it pass the Senate, and President Obama would never sign it into law. A better option is to push for common-sense Medicare reform, or approval of the Keystone pipeline, in exchange for raising the debt ceiling. Let s get something done, Pittenger stated in a press release.
Another group organized in uptown just hours after the Tea Party gathering Wednesday. Members were supporting the Affordable Care Act.
I think what we need to do, is for people to have the opportunity to benefit and experience Obamacare, and they'll see the benefits from it, said Col. Ben Allen, Retired from the US Army Reserves.

Has any single CCS cel ever gone for more than 341,000 yen, as did the Second Movie pan of Sakura in her Princess outfit this morning. (Noooo ... I wasn't the lucky bidder ... though I often dream of having that much yen to put up.) I know a pair of Second Movie cels (from the closing moments) went for something like 260,000 yen and another pair went recently for close to 200,000 yen. But in my recollection this is the first time that a single CCS cel broke the 300,000 mark.

Ensuring the Privacy and Confidentiality of Electronic Health RecordsNicolas TerryIndiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law Leslie P. FrancisUniversity of Utah - S.J. Quinney College of Law October 12, 2007 University of Illinois Law Review, Vol. 2007, pp. 681-735, 2007 Abstract: The federal government is fast-tracking a nationally based interoperable health records system. What may at first glance appear to be merely a technical program in fact would fundamentally alter the relationships between patients, physicians, and potentially other parties such as the government and pharmaceutical companies. It is a program that the President endorses (for example, in his last several State-of-the-Union addresses) and has broad, bipartisan support in Congress. The genesis of the article was separately prepared testimony that we were called to give before the federal government's advisory National Committee on Vital Statistics. When we testified we realized both how similar our views were and the urgency of articulating solutions more protective of patients. As we note in the article the current administration has framed the privacy-confidentiality issues implicated by a national records system quite narrowly, identifying only divergent state laws as creating barriers to successful implementation of its proposal. In contrast, we believe that some important challenges to patient autonomy and professional responsibilities must be addressed prior to implementation. The article both explores those challenges and makes specific technical and legal recommendations for protecting patients' medical information.

Nikon Announces Six New CoolPix Digicams
By Mike Pasini, The Imaging Resource
(Thursday, August 7, 2008 - 13:28 EDT)
Flagship P6000 introduces a new Raw format.
Nikon has just announced six new Coolpix cameras! Nikon said the new cameras are designed to make the shooting, sending and sharing of photos easy and fun for all levels of photographers.
We'll be posting a release on each camera shortly, but meanwhile here are the highlights for each of the new models:
Coolpix P6000
The flagship Coolpix P6000 integrates a new, built-in global positioning system unit, to record "geotags" of the location where images are captured based on their latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates when a picture is taken. It features 13.5 megapixels, a 4x wide-angle Zoom-Nikkor lens with Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements, Optical VR Image Stabilization technology and the power of Nikon's exclusive EXPEED image processing concept.
The unit introduces another Raw format to the world, too. The P6000 captures NRW Raw files using Windows Imaging Component under Vista. Nikon said it is developing a codec so third party applications can decode the new format. meanwhile, images shot in the new NRW Raw format can be opened and viewed in ViewNX (available early October 2008).
The Coolpix Picture Control System in the P6000 features intuitive controls that enable users to adjust their images to pre-set color palette parameters such as Standard, Neutral, Vivid and Monochrome and apply tweaks to image sharpening, tone compensation, brightness, overall tone and saturation.
The P6000 knows where the "best shots" are taken, thanks to the integration of a new, built-in global positioning system unit. With the added GPS function, P6000 users are granted the opportunity to record "geotags" of the location where images are captured based on their latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates when the picture is taken. This further heightens the photographic experience, allowing users to pinpoint the location via maps available in ViewNX, my Picturetown or any other software that recognizes GPS data.
Coolpix S60
The Coolpix S60 introduces an innovative 3.5-inch touch-screen interface. To accompany its new touch-screen, the Coolpix S60 features several innovative modes seamlessly integrated into the camera's interface. For crisp, in-focus pictures, the Coolpix S60 can lock the autofocus and exposure on a subject by simply touching the corresponding location on the screen. For great portraits, the S60 features a new Portrait One-Touch Zoom function, which commands the camera to automatically zoom in and capture a subject with the right amount of framing and focus.
In Playback mode, you can use your fingertips to scroll through images, and zoom in on your pictures by simply touching the screen. The supplied stylus can be used for a variety of fun functions including: The Draw Function, which allows the user to write notes or add drawings on their images, and the Paint Function, which allows fun frames and stamps to be added to images. The new HD Pictmotion function, combined with HDMI connectivity of the Coolpix S60, allows high-quality playback of images and slide shows on an HDTV for the ultimate photo sharing experience.
Coolpix S610c
Nikon continues to be the leader in wireless transfer technology with the Coolpix S610c. Using the S610c's convenient Picture Mail button and Nikon's photo storage and sharing service, my Picturetown, consumers can take advantage of several avenues for sharing their images and videos wirelessly. Through my Picturetown, users can e-mail pictures directly to friends and family, publish pictures to Flickr, and link their photos to blogs and social networking sites.
Each S610c ships with a subscription to Wayport, valid until August 31, 2011. Wayport is one of the nation's largest Wi-Fi providers (over 10,000 locations) and available at major hotel chains and over 9,700 participating McDonald's restaurants nationwide.
In addition, S610c owners can use my Picturetown to securely store up to two gigabytes of pictures and movies, providing a valuable back up to SD memory card storage, with the option to purchase more storage through a my Picturetown Gold account. Not only will users be able to access my Picturetown via their computers, but also through a BlackBerry as well, providing instant access to their images anytime, anywhere.
Coolpix S560
The Coolpix S560 is equipped with Nikon's new Scene Auto Selector mode, which selects the right scene mode for the image a user is shooting.
It also contains several unique shooting modes like Smile Mode, which automatically releases the shutter when the selected subject smiles.
Coolpix S710
The Coolpix S710 features 14.5 megapixels of resolution, a 3.6x Zoom-Nikkor wide-angle glass lens and a stainless steel body.
Coolpix S610
Featuring immediate response, the Coolpix S610 possess the world's fastest start-up time at a mere 0.7 seconds, the company said.
The S610 is equipped with Active Child Mode, which automatically tracks the movement of subjects, such as children and pets, to ensure that images come out crisp and in-focus.

Hey guys I'm new to this website so bare with me, I've been working-out for awhile, but I'm ready to start gaining some serious weight and muscle. So I've looked at a lot of supplements and protein powders, and I've recently found this product Monster Mass by cytosport and looking over the ingredients it checks out to be gluten free, but it states that it is manufactured in facilities that process milk, soy, WHEAT, and eggs. And I know that's usually a red flag but is there any possibility that its gluten free?

If bool is true curses considers using the hardware insert/delete line feature of terminals so equipped.
If bool is false, disables use of line insertion and deletion. This option should be enabled only if the application needs insert/delete line, for example, for a screen editor.
It is disabled by default because insert/delete line tends to be visually annoying when used in applications where it is not really needed. If insert/delete line cannot be used, curses redraws the changed portions of all lines.

Wolfstail occurs as a native species in the southwestern United States, Mexico, and northern South America [4,36,43,71,75]. In North America, the distribution of wolfstail extends west from southeastern California to western Texas and Oklahoma and north to central Colorado and southern Utah [3,4,28,35]. A disjunct wolfstail population may exist in York County, Maine. This population likely originated from seed in wool from the Southwest [30,35]. Recent reports of wolfstail in Maine are lacking, however [4]. The distribution of wolfstail in North America is presented by the Plants Database.

McGraw-Hill TV Revenues Climb 2 Percent
: McGraw-Hill TV station revenue increased 2.2 percent to $18.7 million in the first quarter compared to the same period last year, the multimedia company said today.
National and local time sales benefited from an increase in automobile advertising. Health care issues, propositions in California, the race for governor in California and a Senate seat in Colorado combined to produce an increase in political advertising in the first quarter.
Consolidated net income for the media, education and financial services divisions was $103.3 million, up 64 percent over 1Q09. Diluted earnings per share were 33 cents versus 20 cents a year ago. Revenues were up nearly 4 percent to $1.2 billion.
"We are off to a good start, but the first quarter is also seasonally our smallest of the year," Harold McGraw III, chairman, president and CEO, said. "Until we get greater visibility on trends in our key markets, we are maintaining our original guidance for 2010. We still expect diluted earnings per share of $2.55 to $2.65 for the year."
Shares of McGraw-Hill (NYSE: MHP) hit a year-to-date high of just under $37 in mid-April before dipping to around $33.70 in trading today on negative reaction to economic instability in Greece and Portugal.

Google: The Deep Web Is No Longer Invisible to Us
Google has started digging into the Deep Web, using forms as the gateway to site data not crawlable by Googlebot.
What are your thoughts? Is it a challenge to corporate data privacy? Will your company and clients start using robots.txt to protect files? As as SEO, how will the change affect your job? What are you telling your clients? |

Re: Google: The Deep Web Is No Longer Invisible to Us
This is a uncharacteristically poorly thought through move.
Ok - so Google fills in some 'get' forms, and then indexes the resulting content pages. Why is this a bad idea from an indexing perspective? 1. For a start, many dynamically generated pages use cookie data so users can make better benefit of the site, go back to earlier searches etc. And for Cookie rejecters (like Googlebot) - many of these sites stuff the cookie data into the URL. So Google is now going to index the dynamically generated URL (complete with Cookie data) - so it will never actually get the same URL twice... 2. The vast majority of these 'get' form generated 'results' pages have no links to them. So even if they are indexed - they will only ever be returned in the SERP rankings for the very very very long long tail. No links = no rankings on any kind of moderately competitive phrase. 3. Most sites using 'get' forms should/ would have already built a static crawl path/ google map etc to the content they want indexed. So Google being able to index 'random' content generated by the application would generally be counterproductive (as potentially a static URL & crawl path to the 'selected' content already exists) - and that just means duplicate content.... A whole lot of grief & work for what will provide a pretty poor search result for Google users; and grief & worry and duplicate content issues for siteowners.... |

Re: Google: The Deep Web Is No Longer Invisible to Us
It is only an experiment remember.
"Only a small number of particularly useful sites receive this treatment, and our crawl agent, the ever-friendly Googlebot, always adheres to robots.txt, nofollow, and noindex directives. That means that if a search form is forbidden in robots.txt, we won't crawl any of the URLs that a form would generate. Similarly, we only retrieve GET forms and avoid forms that require any kind of user information. For example, we omit any forms that have a password input or that use terms commonly associated with personal information such as logins, userids, contacts, etc. We are also mindful of the impact we can have on web sites and limit ourselves to a very small number of fetches for a given site." (google webmaster central blog) Some sites ask for information in order to access a load of information for example, which they won't be adverse to being indexed, as the user will still come face to face with the form anyway. The deep web has a lot of interesting stuff to offer. It's worth giving it a go. |

hello can anybody tell me if you can feed ornamental grasses or is it not a good idea to. Thanks
I'm not an expert on ornamental grasses, so someone else my be able to give you a more authoritative answer.However, I can recall seeing a Tv program where one of the country's leading grass experts was describing how he looked after his plants, and prepared them for Chelsea.He described how, each year, he would repot his prize specimens and give them some fresh compost. So I would guess that the answer is that grasses do benefit from feeding.The procedure this gentleman used was quite fascinating. He kept his grasses in pots. He would cut off all the top growth (a severe haircut), and remove the plant from its pot. Then cut off about an inch of the base (the root bottom), using a saw. Then replace the plant in its pot, sitting on an inch of new compost for the roots to grow into. But you don't want to go to all that trouble.
Mine get fed as part of the spring scattering of pelleted chicken manure over the borders. No special treatment or feed.
Hi, they don't need much feeding as over feeding causes lots of lush foliage at the expense of the flowers. one application of a balanced fertilser in spring would be fine.
Thankyou for all your replies

There's something I can't quite distinguish in this, perhaps a hint of woodiness. But what it comes down to is that It's refreshing, spicy, and neither young nor old, so it'll work for pretty much anyone. 23rd June, 2009 |

Robert Neil Butler
Robert Neil Butler | |
Robert Neil Butler in 2004
Born | January 21, 1927 |
Died | July 4, 2010 | (aged 83)
Citizenship | United States |
Nationality | American |
Fields | Gerontology, psychiatry |
Alma mater | Columbia University |
Notable awards | Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction (1976) |
Robert Neil Butler (January 21, 1927 – July 4, 2010) was a physician, gerontologist, psychiatrist, and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, who was the first director of the National Institute on Aging. Butler is known for his work on the social needs and the rights of the elderly and for his research on healthy aging and the dementias.
Having grown up with his grandparents,[1] Butler was shocked by the dismissive and contemptuous attitude toward the elderly and their diseases by many of his teachers at medical school, an attitude he later characterised as "ageism." [2]
He graduated from Columbia College of Columbia University, where he was editor of the Columbia Daily Spectator and a member of the Philolexian Society.[3]
Butler was a principal investigator of one of the first interdisciplinary, comprehensive, longitudinal studies of healthy community-residing older persons, conducted at the National Institute of Mental Health (1955-1966), which resulted in the landmark book Human Aging. His research helped establish the fact that senility was not inevitable with aging, but is a consequence of disease.
In 1975, he became the founding Director [4] of the National Institute on Aging (NIA) of the National Institutes of Health, where he remained until 1982. At the National Institute on Aging he established Alzheimer's Disease as a national research priority.
In 1982, he founded the Department of Geriatrics and Adult Development at The Mount Sinai Medical Center, the first department of geriatrics in a United States medical school.[5] In addition, Butler helped found the Alzheimer's Disease Association, the American Association of Geriatric Psychiatry, the American Federation for Aging Research and the Alliance for Aging Research.[6]
Butler was the founder, Chief Executive Officer, and President of the International Longevity Center-USA[7], a non-profit international organization created to educate people on how to live longer and better.[8]
Butler is best known for his 1975 book Why Survive? Being Old In America, which won the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction in 1976.[9] A 2003 paperback edition is currently available (ISBN 0-8018-7425-4).
Recent books[edit]
- Aging and Mental Health: Positive Psychosocial and Biomedical Approaches (with Myrna I. Lewis and Trey Sunderland, 1998) (ISBN 978-0205193363)
- Life in an Older America (2001) (ISBN 0-87078-438-2)
- The New Love and Sex After 60 (with Myrna I. Lewis, 2002) (ISBN 0-345-44211-3)
- The Longevity Prescription: The 8 Proven Keys to a Long, Healthy Life, 2010 (ISBN 1583333886; ISBN 978-1-58333-388-4).
Butler authored 300 scientific and medical articles.[10]
Butler was the recipient of the 10th Annual Heinz Award in the Human Condition category.[11] The award recognized his work in advancing the rights and needs of the nation's aging citizenry and enhancing the quality of life for elderly Americans.[12]
He received honorary degrees from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden and the University of Southern California as well as other awards such as the Lienhard Medal of the Institute of Medicine and a Hall of Fame Award from the American Society of Aging.[13]
Film appearance[edit]
Butler is featured in the 2009 documentary film, I Remember Better When I Paint,[14] which examines the positive impact of art on people with Alzheimer's disease and how these approaches can change the way the disease is viewed by society.[15]

Was the Montrose farm named after Montrose, the Kentucky Derby-winning horse? Could be coincidence. Could be that the Labold brothers — Alexander and Ike Labold of Cincinnati, Ohio — bred and trained the 1887 Derby champion thoroughbred right here in Anderson County. Or not. That's where you, the reader, come in. I'm no equine Sherlock Holmes. Although I've devoured pretty much every Agatha Christie mystery ever written, my mouth falls open dumbstruck every time the killer was revealed on the page.
Everyone at the Anderson County Senior Center enjoyed Kentucky country ham and broccoli grits when I served it there last week. They scraped the pan clean. Country ham is a Kentucky tradition. Only six states produce country hams – Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia and Missouri.
My potatoes and lettuce are growing! I haven't really put anything else out. I should have put my broccoli and cauliflower out, but then it rained before I could. Spring rains will complicate our gardening life, but we can't do it without them. We just have to be flexible with our schedule.
I love the smell of fresh cut grass. To me, it carries the scent of watermelon, which always sends my brain to warm summer days and plenty of sunshine. Smell is the strongest memory trigger we have and that red fruit transforms me to childhood days of running through sprinklers and seed spitting contests. Summer isn't here yet, but it is coming. Two of my most favorite holidays are coming, too. Earth Day will be here on the 22nd and Arbor Day is close behind on the 26th. This year, I've gotten a head start on my festivities.
Is your child ready for school? Child assessments are revealing that the majority of Kentucky children are not ready for success in school. Statewide only 28 percent of children are ready for kindergarten without additional support. Anderson County didn't participate in the pilot screening so no local information is available for 2012.
Patience. I'm pretty sure that's what we all need right now. It is the middle of April and while a decade into our future we may be planting at this date, climate change has not taken us there yet. Our typical planting date here is right around Derby day. That does not mean that you can just sit around and wait.
Kentuckians may know that Bibb lettuce was developed by Major John Bibb in the backyard of his Frankfort home — Grey Gables (Bibb-Burnley House). He moved to Frankfort in 1856 and shared his seeds and plants with friends. Soon it became known as Bibb lettuce and became commercially produced in 1935. Soon you will be able to buy Bibb lettuce at the local farmer's markets. The Anderson County Farmer's Market opens Friday, April 26 at noon.
If you had asked just more than a year ago, I'd have sworn to you I was a dyed-in-the-fur dog person. I proclaimed my love for all animals — dolphins, dogs, elephants, frogs — but when it came to cats, I was uninterested. Never had a cat. Didn't understand them — or their people, really. Required a preventative dose of Benadryl to stave off my sneezes when visiting their homes. But a funny thing happened when I got to know a few felines who were hanging around our neighborhood.
Cold weather wimp that I am, even I can work outside in this weather. Well, once the frost thaws. It was 26 degrees on the farm Good Friday morning Great temps for the gravel truck to make it up my drive. I've been waiting since Christmas for the rain to stop and the clay like-mud to dry.
Gardening is not my area of expertise. However, I do have access to research-based information about gardening. Tommy Yankey, Anderson County Extension agent for agriculture and natural resources, will be conducting a home gardening class in conjunction with the food preservation workshop Saturday, April 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can register for the workshop by calling the Anderson County Extension Office at 839-7271.

They do have a lot of vegan options, but it is a vegetarian restaurant. They have great food, but the waitress came back and gave us butter. We told her to take it back. Great clean and nice decorated restaurant, but they are not fully vegan, yet.
Cons: They don't know what vegan means, They must go vegan, cruelty on the menu
