Soldier Meadows Ride
September 13, 14, 15, 16
Another fantastic ride in Northern Nevada and into Southern Oregon. The route for this ride is very
similar to the Emigrant Trails ride, and requires the same experienced riders who can ride and handle
themselves in any situation. The main difference is we stage on private property East of Portola and
spend 2 nights at the Soldier Meadows Ranch, here's a little history about the ranch.
In 1865 Camp McGarry was established at the location of the current Ranch Headquarters. It was a
U.S. Army winter camp. Its mission was to protect traveling pioneers and freight wagon trains from
Indian attack. By 1865 there were regular freight wagon trains traveling from the Sacramento Valley to
Silver City after silver was discovered in Idaho. Protection was needed along this stretch of the trail, so
the Army established a Fort near Summit Lake (now the Summit Lake Indian Reservation). In the winter,
the army moved the Fort south to Soldier Meadows because it was quite a bit warmer due to its lower
elevation and warm water available from the nearby warm and hot springs. Stone buildings and stables
remain standing from the U.S. Army camp at Soldier Meadows Headquarters and at the Summit Lake
Indian Reservation
Believe me this is a fantastic place to stay! You'll have the option of either Private queen bed rooms (6)
or rooms with double bunks (3) plus an unbelievable home cooked dinner and breakfast is included with
our 2 nights stay at Soldier Meadows. Saturday night I've rented the whole town of Denio Junction there
are (6) double rooms only. Saturday night is T bone night At Denio Junction, and your dinner Saturday
night is also include in the ride.
There is a strict 12 rider limit on this ride and no single riders, Sign up ASAP this ride will sell out fast.

08/14/2007 To a new kind of sleuth, phones leave a rich trail | ||
Law enforcement officials and forensics experts said cell phones are the latest in a long line of new technologies to which they have adapted By David Chanen, Chao Xiong Because of the wealth of information they hold, cell phones are now part of almost every large forensic examination or criminal or civil case. Even so, Hanson estimated that Minnesota has less than a dozen full-time computer and cell phone forensic experts. Law enforcement officials and forensics experts said cell phones are simply the latest in a long line of new technologies to which they have adapted, from land-line phones to camcorders to pagers to computers. But they also agree that the cell phone's ubiquity is unrivaled. "As more and more people are having cell phones as part of their daily lives, cell phones are becoming part of investigations in general," said Judy Regenscheid, information technology manager for Hennepin County and a board member of the Minnesota chapter of the High Tech Crime Investigation Association. What they reveal, Hanson admits, baffles investigators. A convicted felon on probation taking a picture of himself holding a gun. Robbers filming their crimes. Last month, Jermaine Mack-Lynch was sentenced to 30 years in prison in the killing of a young pizza delivery man in Minneapolis. Key to his conviction was cell-phone video showing Mack-Lynch dancing around with the murder weapon, a shiny .357 Magnum. "We have people telling us they are done being gang members and don't want their name in our database," said Ron Ryan, commander of the Metro Gang Strike Force. "Then we come up with cell phones showing them throwing up gang signs and holding a gun in their hand." Phone changed investigation Hanson, 34, has examined more than 150 cell phones in the past two years. When the Gophers player's cell phone landed in Hanson's crime lab, the investigator had no clue what he might discover. He rarely comes across deleted video files, especially "one critical to a case as this one," he said. In April, Gophers football player Alex Daniels videotaped Jones having sex with an 18-year-old woman who had passed out after drinking vodka, authorities said. Michael Colich, Daniels' attorney, said he hasn't seen the video, and he wouldn't comment if Daniels deleted the file. Daniels and football teammates E.J. Jones and Keith Massey were all arrested shortly after the woman reported the rape, but none has been charged with a crime. Dominic Jones, no relation to E.J., was charged last Monday with third-degree criminal sexual conduct. The discovery of the video took the investigation in an unexpected direction, said Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman. Even though users can't see a deleted text message, cell phone picture or video, they can remain stored in a number of places: on the phone's flash card, on the phone provider's network, or on the customer's personal computer if the phone or a device such as a BlackBerry is set up to route messages there, said Paul Luehr, a former federal prosecutor and now managing director and deputy general counsel for Stroz Friedberg, a national forensics and technical consulting company. Computers store deleted information on their hard drives. "To the average person, [deleting information is] like the kid who throws something in the wastebasket but doesn't empty the wastebasket," he said. Getting to the data To retrieve deleted data, a cell phone is connected via cable to a blank hard drive and computer with specialized software that captures all data stored on the phone, he said. That information can be saved onto a hard drive, disk or CD. Investigators can then conduct a key-word search, looking for files with a person's name or a specific phrase. Besides video and pictures, a forensic investigator would look for call contacts, history and text messages. The process isn't foolproof though. Deleted information in cell phones can disappear after a couple of days or weeks while computers can retain deleted information for several months to a couple of years, said Luehr. Because cell phones have less storage and are more heavily used, old files can be deleted spontaneously to make room for new data. Luehr said he has seen numerous photos retrieved from cell phones that were half-erased because new data was entered. It keeps changing Cell phones also vary more than computers in their models, systems and layouts, he said. And with each new cell phone model comes new challenges, Hanson said. He and other experts network with one another to solve investigative problems. He can't wait until somebody gets to work on Apple's highly popular iPhone. Defense attorney Joe Friedberg knows firsthand how cell phone technology can affect criminal cases - and it doesn't always favor prosecutors. Last summer he defended St. Cloud bouncer Paul Buboltz, who was charged with killing Justin Smiley outside a popular nightclub. An eyewitness snapped a cell phone photo of Buboltz with his arm around Smiley's head; the photo was not deleted and was used in court. Friedberg said it was of "tremendous value" in his client's acquittal because it showed Bulbotz's arm was not on Smiley's windpipe, disproving the prosecution's assertion that Bulbotz cut off Smiley's air supply. "The knowledge that you can go and pull stuff back from never-never land is of great importance to law enforcement," Friedberg said. Copyright 2007 Star Tribune | ||

SEM, Symmetry Equivalent Molecules, is a web-based graphical user interface to generate and visualize the symmetry equivalent molecules (proteins and nucleic acids). In addition, the program allows the users to save the three-dimensional atomic coordinates of the symmetry equivalent molecules in the local machine. The widely recognized graphics program RasMol has been deployed to visualize the reference (input atomic coordinates) and the symmetry equivalent molecules. This program is written using CGI/Perl scripts and has been interfaced with all the three-dimensional structures (solved using X-ray crystallography) available in the Protein Data Bank. The program, SEM, can be accessed over the World Wide Web interface at http://dicsoft2.physics.iisc.ernet.in/sem/ or http://126.96.36.199/sem/.

Questions & Answers
These rugs have an Action Backing. It is a web of Olefin yarn that is heat-set to the rug which means minimal latex is used. Many new area rugs and carpets feature "Action Back" backing. This type of backing is usually heat-set onto the back of the rug. It was designed to stand up to professional steam cleaning without degenerating from the heat and moisture. Action Back has high performance for allowing carpeting to breathe and protecting the floor underneath.
Is this product, at least, the size stated (8X10) or possibly slightly larger? Is the color true to the pictures, without a pinkish tint?
This item is (8' x 10'). This is beige in color.

Smart Answers to Common Feeding Questions
Feeding FAQs
I nurse my newborn on demand, but she always seems to be hungry. Can I get her on a schedule?
Michael Kraus
Unfortunately, a set schedule doesn't necessarily work for a newborn, says Laura Jana, MD, coauthor of Food Fights (American Academy of Pediatrics). "You don't want to say, 'I'm not feeding my baby because the baby book says every two to three hours,'" she explains. "You want to make sure you're feeding a new baby enough. Also, some newborns take a long time to eat, which can make you feel as though you're feeding your child constantly."
Keep in mind that you don't have to jump the minute your child fusses and assume he needs to be fed, says Dr. Jana. Your child could be crying for any number of reasons, such as feeling tired or overstimulated. Also, infants often want to nurse for comfort -- they need to suck but aren't hungry. Once your breastfeeding is established -- usually by 2 to 4 weeks of age -- it's good to offer a pacifier if you feel as though your baby has just eaten. As far as getting him on a schedule, once you go to your next well-baby visit and confirm that he's gaining weight properly, you can try holding him off for a reasonable two to three hours. But remember that babies go through growth spurts, such as between 3 and 6 weeks and at 4 months, when they'll want to nurse more often.
My baby always seems fussy after a feeding. Should I try changing her formula?
"Sometimes switching formulations -- say, from powder to concentrate, but not the brand -- can help, because your baby might be gassy from the bubbles that form when you mix the formula," says Dr. Jana. Typically, your doctor will recommend a new formula only if your child shows signs that she may be allergic or intolerant to the proteins in milk. Besides fussiness after feedings, signs of either of these conditions include blood in your baby's stool and vomiting or diarrhea. Babies with a milk protein allergy can also experience hives and respiratory problems.
If you're concerned, consult your child's doctor, who may recommend a hypoallergenic formula, which has cow's-milk proteins that are broken down enough to avoid causing a reaction in most babies. She may also test baby's poop for blood you can't see.
I've heard that soy can cause reproductive problems. Is soy formula safe?
Soybeans and other legumes contain a small amount of natural estrogen, which, since it's a hormone, could in theory affect a child's reproductive organs and maturation. Studies done on lab rats and monkeys that were fed soy or components of soy have found some adverse affects. But a National Institutes of Health report, released last year, concluded there's no evidence that feeding soy formula to babies leads to reproductive problems.
That said, soy formula shouldn't be your first choice when choosing what to feed baby, advises Jatinder Bhatia, MD, a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) committee on nutrition. The AAP says that when breastfeeding isn't possible, then parents should give infants formula made from cow's milk, and they should only offer soy formula when special situations exist -- such as when medically necessary. For instance, soy formula is fed to babies with galactosemia (a rare metabolic disorder) who can't consume milk with the sugars lactose or galactose. And it can be given to a child with a confirmed milk allergy who isn't also allergic to soy, which is often the case. The AAP also says a strict vegetarian who doesn't breastfeed can use soy formula -- as long as the infant isn't preterm.
My 6-month-old has been breastfed exclusively and won't take a bottle. I want to wean her onto formula. What can I do?
Babies are creatures of habit, so if she's used to having the breast, it's normal for her to balk at bottles. But there's hope. Betsy List, a lactation consultant and coordinator at the Center for Breastfeeding Medicine at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, offers this plan: Before you move to formula, try putting some of your own expressed milk in the bottle. When your baby is a little hungry but not overly anxious to eat, have someone else offer the bottle ahead of her normal feeding time. Touch the corner of her mouth with the bottle's nipple and let her root for it. If she won't take the bottle, try again later or the next day.
"Use times when she is naturally curious or exploring her environment to practice with a bottle," List adds. "After your baby learns to take a bottle with your own milk, you can then gradually begin mixing in formula so she can adjust to the new taste."

Yamaha SE203M. This guitar is a great low-cost Strat! 2 singles plus a rail humbucker in the bridge. 1 volume 1 tone. The best maple neck I've played outside of a Jimmy Vaughan Strat. Slight V and plays beautifully. Very nice Stratty tone as well. Previous owner stripped all the finish but did a very clean job. Believe this is a mahogany body. Cosmetic condition is very good. Lots of fret life remaining. Works perfectly. Typical Yamaha quality. Do not have the whammy bar.
I have been buying and selling on eBay for years and have 100% rating:
No gig bag or case, but will pack well and ship fast, and returns for refund always welcome. Thanks!

The Digital Design program is an intensive program that balances the discipline of design, artistic exploration, and social responsibility within the rich tradition of the liberal arts environment. Through a focus on content-driven work, students learn visual problem solving and acquire communication skills informed by critical theory and the history of digital art and design. The curriculum includes typography, digital imaging, graphic design, and digital media for print, for the web, for animation, for video, for interactive graphics, and for sound. The program focuses on the creative process of art and design from concept to production. At the advanced level, students have the opportunity to combine theory and practice through readings and discussions, research, in-depth critiques, exhibitions, internships, and hands-on workshops within a technologically sophisticated studio environment.
Students interested in taking the preliminary courses leading up to the review for acceptance into the Digital Design Major (DIDS) should declare Digital Design Candidacy (DIDS.CAND) as a preparatory major. During this stage students will fulfill the prerequisite courses in preparation for the mid–career Portfolio Review to gain acceptance into the Digital Design Major.DIGTIAL DESIGN MAJOR (DIDS) Students wishing to advance to the Digital Design major (DIDS) are required to undergo the Portfolio Review process towards the end of their sophomore year. Transfer students are invited to submit an equivalent portfolio at the same time or before the start of their junior year.
The Portfolio Review reflects the program's philosophies of both excellence and sustainability: A mid-career Portfolio Review accurately mirrors the competitive nature of the digital design field and in so doing will encourage students to strive towards excellence. Additionally, the review will limit the number of students who will advance from Digital Design Candidacy status to the major in Digital Design, thereby keeping class sizes at a sustainable level while also fostering a cohort experience for those students going through the program. The Portfolio Review takes place towards the end of the sophomore year. Portfolios must be submitted prior to the beginning of the Spring Quarter Academic Advising period (see portfolio description.) Students who are not advanced to the Digital Design major should consult with their advisor regarding options for declaring a different major.

Serves two as a main course; four as an appetizer.
This is one of my favorite summer meals. Be sure to serve the mussels in bowls, with plenty of French bread to sop up the broth. Enjoy these with a crisp white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Sémillon.
In a large pot with a tight-fitting lid, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic. Sauté until soft, making sure they don't color, about 2 minutes. Raise the heat to high, add the white wine, and bring it to a boil. Add the mussels, cover the pot, and steam until the shells open, 5 to 9 minutes, stirring once or twice during cooking. Take care not to overcook, and be sure to discard any mussels that haven't opened. Add the parsley, ladle the mussels and the broth into serving bowls, and serve at once.

One of many photos of space shuttle Endeavour that hit Twitter Friday, Sept. 21. (Twitter / September 21, 2012) |
Some had to hike up the mountain to Griffith Observatory as early as 6 a.m. with the parking lot already packed. Others took a break from work or class to snap photos with their cellphones. The flyover of space shuttle Endeavour was, for the moment, L.A.'s biggest celebrity Friday.

SaganIsMyHomeboy United States Show all reviews | Ill start by saying I really like Aventus. I'd probably own it and wear it often, but my wife doesn't care for it at all. That doesn't disqualify a fragrance for me, but an investment like Aventus doesn't make sense to me for such limited use right now. Fresco has enough of a resemblance that it satisfies my craving. It's really a very nice affordable fragrance. 31st January, 2014 |
Mapletop United States Show all reviews | Smells very similar to Aventus. Like how Cool Water smells similar to Green Irish Tweed. Aventus has more of a smoky/ashy prominence, as Fresco concentrates more on the oak moss. As for the pineapple note, they smell almost the same. Fresco is linear and does not change much, and I like that. Some people want their cologne to evolve or change, Aventus does that. The only con I have for Fresco is the longevity is bad. 28th December, 2013 (Last Edited: 31st December, 2013) |
noirdrakkar United States Show all reviews | Fresco by Ilum Dean Let's recap for a second. Early 2013, around February I think, a few Youtube reviewers were claiming that this fragrance smelled really similar to Aventus for 1/6 of the price and a lot of people ordered it to see what it was about and there was a lot of discussion. 5 months later, we don't hear much about it, so it's clearly a fad. Moreover, Ilum Dean isn't even a real fashion house. They have no brick-and-mortar business and the sample that was sent to me was from a guy in his apartment. Also, they claim to be a fashion house, but only have one product: their fragrance. If the cheap web design rife with spelling errors wasn't enough, if you go to the Terms & Conditions as well the Disclaimer pages, they say "Coming Soon". What actual company would do that? Okay, Fresco is essentially, a DIY (do it yourself). And for a Do It Yourself, it's decent. For an actual fragrance not so much. It smells probably 1/3 like Aventus. Enough to notice a slight similarity, but not enough to ever mistake the two. It also smells a little bit like Bleecker Street, especially with it's grassy notes. However, it just lacks the well made base of vanilla, birch and ambergris that makes Aventus so special. As others have said, it's a much more lighter, inoffensive and wearable (of course, spraying less Aventus is an option too). The key point is that this won't replace Aventus anytime soon and you are better off spending the money toward a decant of Aventus. If you have low standards and collect just about anything, this is an alright fragrance that would probably be middle of the road compared to most designer/celebrity fragrances. However, this wouldn't be a good choice if you are selective about what you buy. Just the dishonesty of the maker alone turns me off. 02nd June, 2013 |
mmmm Show all reviews | Haven't tried aventus at this point in time, but as fresco stands alone its great fragrance. Fresh, little fruity but screams confidence and attraction. My dry skin sucks this one to the bone in a little over an hour, so unless I carry it around or use it as a car scent its almost useless. If this stuff lasted it would probably be in my top 10. If you have dry skin id almost say this isnt worth it, but I got my bottle online for 20 something dollars 07th March, 2013 |
drseid United States Show all reviews | As Fresco's alleged allure is it is an Aventus clone at 1/6th the cost, I think instead of my usual review I should just get right down to the comparison of the two scents as I have one on each arm. 23rd January, 2013 (Last Edited: 12th February, 2014) |
silentrich United States Show all reviews | Smells like an EdT version of Creed Aventus. Most definately lighter, but the note breakdown is very similar as is the overall smell. I love Aventus, but in my humid climate it can be a challenge to wear even 1 spray of it if your going to be outside for any period of time. It's also such a potent fragrance that it's not recommended in an environment where your going to interact closely with people. Fresco solves both of those problems, smells very similar, and can be had for less than $30. If you like the smell of Aventus or want a more versatile version this is it. 17th January, 2013 (Last Edited: 13th April, 2013) |

Mohawkby Richard Russo
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Mohawk, New York, is one of those small towns that lie almost entirely on the wrong side of the tracks. Its citizens, too, have fallen on hard times. Dallas Younger, a star athlete in high school, now drifts from tavern to poker game, losing money, and, inevitably, another set of false teeth. His ex-wife, Anne, is stuck in a losing battle with her mother over the care of her sick father. And their son, Randall, is deliberately neglecting his school work — because in a place like Mohawk it doesn't pay to be too smart.
In Mohawk, Richard Russo explores these lives with profound compassion and flint-hard wit. Out of derailed ambitions and old loves, secret hatreds and communal myths, he has created a richly plotted, densely populated, and wonderfully written novel that captures every nuance of America's backyard. Review:"Russo is a master craftsman....The blue-collar heartache at the center of his fiction has the sheen of Dickens but the epic levity of John Irving." The Boston Globe
Review:"Movingly dramatizes an older, innocent way of life...brisk, colorful, and often witty." The New York Times Book Review
Review:"Richard Russo [is] a masterful storyteller with a mission: to chronicle with insight and compassion the day-to-day life of small-town America...alternating episodes of boisterous humor with moments of heart-wrenching pathos....His characters are wholly sympathetic, but they are also human." The Houston Chronicle
Review:"Russo writes clearly and without affectation...telling his elaborate tale with affection." Chicago Tribune
Review:"After the last sentence is read, the reader continues to see Russo's tender, messed-up people coming out of doorways, lurching through life. And keeps on seeing them because they are as real as we are." E. Annie Proulx, author of The Shipping News
Synopsis:Originally published in 1986 in the Vintage Contemporaries paperback series—and reissued now in hardcover alongside his masterful new novel, Empire Falls—Richard Russo's Mohawk remains today as it was described then: A first novel with all the assurance of a mature writer at the peak of form and ambition, Mohawk is set in upstate New York and chronicles over a dozen lives in a leather town, long after the tanneries have started closing down. Ranging over three generations—and clustered mainly in two clans, the Grouses and the Gaffneys—these remarkably various lives share only the common human dilemmas and the awesome physical and emotional presence of Mohawk itself.
For this is a town like Winesburg, Ohio or Our Town, in our time, that encompasses a plethora of characters, events and mysteries. At once honestly tragic and sharply, genuinely funny, Mohawk captures life, then affirms it. From the Trade Paperback edition. About the AuthorRichard Russo in 1986. His novels The Risk Pool, Nobodys Fool and Straight Man are available in Vintage paperback. He now lives in coastal Maine with his wife and their two daughters.

The Truth About Calories In Some Super Bowl Snack Favorites
CBS Minnesota (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSMinnesota.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSMinnesota.com/Health
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – The Super Bowl is the biggest game of the year in football, but what would it be without some big calorie food?
Some of us eat two or three days worth of calories on Super Sunday.
Americans will consume more than a billion chicken wings. About 6,000 tons of nachos will be eaten, and 32 percent of people plan to dip chips.
So what will it take to burn all that junk food off? We need to be whipped into super shape.
Hannah Cross from HealthPartners provided us with some tips for staying healthy despite all the treats on Super Bowl Sunday.
You could go for the celery and maybe the carrots, but no, we go for the chicken wing like most Americans, who will eat an estimated one billion wings during the game.
"Yep, it's good on the lips but not so good on the hips," Carlson said.
The average buffalo wing has 72 calories, and that's in just one wing. To burn that off, you'll need to run a full football field 12 times.
"You want to feel good about what you're doing at the end of the day right?" Carlson asked.
Eat a full plate of nachos and you'll need to run around the football field 79 times to burn those calories. Another option might be jumping jacks, but for an hour straight, to get rid of the average 470 calories that are in a six ounce serving of nachos.
Two tablespoons of cheese dip, without the chips, is about 80 calories. That means you have to do squats for about 15 minutes to burn that off.
"Next time you can save yourself the effort and just have some healthier options instead," Carlson said.
Our health coach recommended fish fingers instead of wings, shredded chicken quesadillas with whole wheat tortillas instead of nachos or a southwestern bean dip over cheese.

Mazda MP5 Carbon Fiber Hoods | Mazda MP5 Carbon Fiber Hood
Featured Hoods Products
Mazda MP5 Carbon fiber hood trend started from mid 1990's in Japan, it was used for weight reduction of the vehicle for racers to achieve better time and performance. It was brought to US market in late 1990's and became one of the most popular modifications for racing enthusiasts. As we seen in the market today, MP5 carbon fiber hoods have becoming a fashion trend because of its uniqueness and it provides a "racer look" to an everyday ride.
There are 2 types of Mazda MP5 carbon fiber hood for Mazda MP5 available in the market, the first type of Mazda MP5 hood is made with 100% carbon fiber sheet, it is extremely light weight for race-use only therefore it's not popular and not recommended to install on the street cars.
The second type of hood for Mazda MP5 is made as carbon fiber face with fiberglass (FRP) skeleton which is mainly what is offered by most of the shops. It is not 100% made with carbon fiber only to increase the durability and structure strength therefore it weights much heavier than the true Mazda MP5 carbon fiber hood.
Ram air hood and MP5 cowl induction hood are both very popular modification. It is engineered to bring in more air into the engine bay for cooling and creating down-force to increase the handling of the vehicle.We carry a huge selection of Seibon Mazda MP5 carbon fiber hoods, Vis Racing Mazda MP5 Hood,Mazda MP5 carbon fiber hoods and much more. We are also specialized in Mustang hood, Civic hood, Camaro hood, Accord carbon fiber hood.

Regulations are promulgated when a statute requires them to be developed. State agency staff develops the regulations based upon statute, conduct public hearings, make necessary changes based upon public input, and submit draft regulations to the Office of Administrative Law. This agency reviews the regulations to ensure there is a legal authority for the components of the regulations. Once approved, the adopted regulations become the guidelines for implementation of the program.
Statute directs the Cal-SAFE child care sites to be in compliance with health and safety requirements of Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations (EC § 54746 (c) (5)). These regulations are listed in Table 6.

Local Policies
In addition to state and federal laws and regulations, the local school district or county office of education may also have policies that affect students and children participating in the Cal-SAFE Program. These policies are important to know as they may affect how the program is implemented and how the funding is used. For example, the local educational agency may have a policy that bus transportation is not provided to high school students living within a mile of the school they attend. This could be a barrier for expectant and parenting students to attend school. The result is that for those students without transportation, the program coordinator would need to negotiate an exception for Cal-SAFE students or use Cal-SAFE Program funding to provide necessary transportation. Local policies and procedures will enable the Cal-SAFE Program staff to know the "rules" for other issues, such as school personnel transporting students to appointments.

Tika is the robot one and Tila is the ninja. (I know they are not the best characters but with school it is hard to take perfect care of them, the ninja gets cool presents though!) Have any of you ever gotten a cape for your ninja? Those are really cool! Except, Tila changed into an old man when she used her cape, and she is a girl. Tika, the robot, got a wig, and it is so awesome! She has an afro with a little bird thing (i think) that comes out of it!
Tila and Tika are adults now!

The City Of Dreams Resurfaces After A Long Slumber
In the pre-podcast days of 1999, the then Sci-Fi Channel website worked with the Seeing Ear Theater and Bablyon 5 creator J. Michael Straczynski to produce a series of Twilight Zone-inspired radio stories called "City Of Dreams" along with a cast that included Steve Buscemi, Tim Curry, Kevin Conway, and John Turturro. 13 episodes were planned, but only 8 got produced, and with the decline of Real Player and the Seeing Ear Theater, the episodes were thought to be lost to the mists of internet history.

Arcangel and the future of digi/net art
Corey Arcangel is perhaps the internet's most infamous hack, masher-upper, digi/net artist. His work stands for a growing culture of artists who run wildly through animated GIF landscapes populated with corrupted data-compressed bunny rabbits and tinny, MIDI renditions of Savage Garden ballads. As the Lisson Gallery, London, opens its archives to Arcangel's curatorial eye, could digi/net art be set to infect the real, fleshy world, like a rampant Conficker Worm? Has YouTube become the truest reflection of our anthropological selves? Are we destined to roam the int3erw£bs like the mythic beasts of yore, hoping, in time, that digi art can free us from the confines of this fleshy void?

This follows hot on the heels of a new bill which could see people face six years of jail time or a 1 billion rupiah fine for being caught sending out porn, "false news" or racial or religious slurs on the Web. The Indonesian government will start censoring the Internet next month with specialised software. Very disappointing for a country which had a reasonably free press.

YouTube Disables Wael Abbas's Account
Wael Abbas is an Egyptian blogger and anti-torture activist who recently won a journalism award for his documenting police brutality in Egypt, which led to the conviction of two police officers. In Egypt, blogging can get you arrested, and Abbas has taken enormous risks. But now YouTube has removed his videos and suspended his account after receiving complaints (possibly from the Egyptian government) about their graphic content, and Yahoo has disabled his email account. Evidently YouTube is not the ally human rights advocates had hoped it would be.
Access Denied
In the same spirit as the Open Net Initiative and Committee to Protect Bloggers that both track global internet filtering, Sami ben Gharbia's Access Denied Map tries to track the blocking of sites like Blogger, Flickr, YouTube and others by governments, as well as efforts by activists to keep them accessible or to challenge their blockage.

His lawyers have been unable to convince a federal court to review his case, so they started started Project Hamad and posted a short movie about him online. This is an example of how human rights activists can use YouTube to bring their cases to the public.

It seems like child actors are generally immune from tabloid gossip unless they've really messed up. Now it looks like that is exactly where Amanda Bynes has landed herself. After being charged with multiple DUIs and hit-and-runs over the summer, the actress is no longer off-limits, and she's not very happy about it.
In Touch magazine posted a story on Thursday saying that multiple eyewitnesses saw Bynes walking around naked in a tanning salon. The magazine said the actress was given a private room but came back out of the room looking for goggles — sans clothes.
"She walked out of the room completely naked," a witness told In Touch. "She didn't seem to care that everyone saw her naked."
Another witness said it wasnt just that Bynes was naked but that she was acting very strangely as well.
"She seemed totally out of it," the eyewitness said. "She took her time walking back to the Mystic room, dragging her fingers along the wall and smiling at customers who passed her. There was definitely something wrong with her."
But Bynes is not happy with the story, and she is threatening to do something about it. According to Perez Hilton, she said, "That's not true, I'll sue."
Since being charged with the alleged crimes from the summer, Bynes, 26, has worked hard to stay out of the spotlight. She's been staying in Manhattan and, besides a few reports of small incidents, hasn't caused any trouble.
"Still, a slew of troubles are waiting for her on the West Coast: Bynes has upcoming court dates for a DUI, two counts of hit-and-run, and two counts of driving on a suspended license," said Yahoo!. The actress has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

New York State of Mind: Forever Young in Coney Island, New York
3 7 Share TweetIf you want to escape from the crowds and the giant buildings of Manhattan without leaving New York, jump in the subway and go to Coney Island !
The first time I went there, it was because I was bored and wanted to see what the last stop of my subway line looked like. And I was not disappointed!
When you exit the station, just go straight and the street will lead you to the beach. Take off your shoes, feel the sand under your feet and grab your camera. Pictures of the sea are a classic — they always look great because they capture what we love the most about this kind of places: the calm atmosphere and peaceful feeling coming from the endless waves.
After photographing seagulls and collecting shells, head to Luna Park, the amusement park facing the sea. The first time I came here, it was closed and it looked like a Zombie movie set. But thanks to that, my pictures look super creepy and I love them.
Later, I came back with my Lomographers friends llablaude and Elodie and we had a lot of fun! It was just like when we were 7 years old and I think you get this feeling when you see our pictures.
That's what I really like about Coney Island: less than an hour away from the city, you get to go to the beach, have fun in Luna Park and take plenty of colorful pictures. Show me yours!

FRIDAY, Nov. 2 (HealthDay News) -- Short sleep durations do not lead to increased insulin resistance, according to a study published in the Nov. 1 issue of SLEEP.
Marie-Pierre St-Onge, Ph.D., from St. Luke's/Roosevelt Hospital in New York City, and colleagues conducted a randomized crossover study in which 27 normal-weight 30- to 45-year-old adults who habitually slept seven to nine hours a night were studied under a short (four hours in bed) or habitual (nine hours in bed) sleep condition. For each four-day study period, a controlled diet was provided and fasting blood samples were obtained daily.
The researchers found that body weights were significantly reduced by 2.2 ± 0.4 lbs and 1.7 ± 0.4 lbs during the habitual and short-sleep phases, respectively. Sleep duration had no effect on glucose, insulin, and leptin profiles. There were sex differences in ghrelin and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) responses. Fasting (P = 0.054) and morning (08:00 to 12:00) (P = 0.042) total ghrelin increased during the short-sleep phase in men but not women. For GLP-1, the reverse was seen, with afternoon levels (12:30 to 19:00) lower (P = 0.016) in women but not men after short-sleep periods compared with habitual sleep.
"These data suggest that, in the context of negative energy balance, short sleep does not lead to a state of increased insulin resistance, but may predispose to overeating via separate mechanisms in men and women," the authors write.

(14) Ohm's Law for Dummies (Vapers)
Published by Baditude in the blog Baditude's blog. Views: 195
So here is my take on an ohm's law explanation using a power wheel as an anology. Strap your butts on and let's go!
.. ........................
Section 1: The parts of Ohm's law
If we take a look at the graphic below you will see what's known as the Ohm's law triangle, aka your cheat sheet for this section. To understand what this all means we first need to understand the three components of Ohm's Law: Voltage, Resistance, and Amperage. To achieve this we are going to use the analogy of a water basin with a flood gate pooring onto a water wheel. Bear in mind on a technical level this isn't a perfect analogy but for our purposes it will do the trick. So here we go again!
- Work - The wheel in this analogy refers to the work being done. The faster the wheel spins the more work that is done.
- V - Voltage - Voltage is the water basin itself. It is the potential for energy, or the potential amount of water you have to work with.
- R – Resistance (ohms) - Resistance is the flood gates. It is what controls how much water can flow out of our basin. The lower the flood gates the more water that can flow through.
- I – Amperage - Amperage is the stream of water coming out of the flood gates. This is what actually does the work. Imagine the water wheel is right under the flood gate. The more water that comes out (amperage) the faster the wheel spins, let water flow through too fast and the water wheel breaks!
Section 2: Let the water flow - How Voltage, Resistance and Amperage Relate
Now that we know what V (voltage), R (resistance) and I (amps) are, let's talk about how they function and what it means to us vapers. The easiest one of these three to grasp is work. Work is simply energy being used to accomplish something. For vapers that energy is electricity and the work is our coil heating up. The more work the warmer our coil.
Resistance is our flood gate. If we raise our flood gate (raise our resistance) less water is allowed to flow through. If we lower the flood gates (lower the resistance) more water is allowed to flow through. In our ecigs our resistance is in our coils. If you increase the resistance of the coil then less electricity is allowed to flow through the coil. The lower the electrical flow through the coil the cooler your vape will be. On the inverse if we increase the electrical flow by lowering the flood gates (lower the resistance in our coil) we will see a higher electrical flow that will result in warmer temperatures.
Remember back to our water wheel for a bit, if you let too much water flow into the wheel it's going to break, right? So if you run too low of a resistance there will be too much electrical flow and the "wheel" will break. What is the "wheel" with ecigs? Your battery! And when it breaks bad things happen, sometimes very bad things. This is really only a concern with mechanical mods as most regulated VV mods have a low ohm cut off to prevent these types of issues.
Next, Voltage, our water basin. This is where the analogy falls a little short but bear with me. So what happens when you have a bunch of water above an opening? The pressure increases. So the larger your basin (voltage) the more pressure you have trying to push through the opening. This means that if you have a small basin and suddenly make it a large basin (increase the voltage) you now need to raise the flood gates a little bit to maintain the same flow rate (amperage). This can be seen by using a low resistance coil at low voltage and then switching to a higher resistance coil at higher voltage. They should vape very similarly.
Bring back the water wheel again, if we don't raise our flood gates when we increase the size of the basin (raising resistance when we raise the voltage) you will have a higher amount of water flowing through the gate (electrical flow). When we do this the wheel spins faster and our vape is warmer, but once again, spin the wheel too fast and it will break. In this instance though the "wheel" can be several things. You may still damage your battery in a mechanical mod but you might also pop a coil or even burn your juice. So the "wheel" in this instance expands to not only be the battery but also the coil and the juice. Regardless of what it is, things breaking is bad.
Finally our water flow, Amperage. Our water flow is what does the actual work. Amperage is the actual flow of electrons through our coil and what causes our coils to warm up. I'm sure the relationship is starting to shine through at this time. If you lower the flood gate our water flow increases and if we increase the size of our basin the water flow increases too. In vaping the water flow (amperage) is the one thing you have no direct control over. We adjust the amperage by raising and lowering our flood gates (resistance) and by increasing or decreasing the size of our basin (voltage). Amperage is what's dangerous in electricity, it's what makes things work and causes things to break.
Section 3: Bringing it Back to Earth - Application of Ohm's Law
So let's bring this analogy into the real world and show you how to use your new found knowledge. Grab your text book or review the second image I listed above. Even though you now know what V, R and I are this thing still might not make sense. Well we're about to change that! This is what's referred to as the Ohm wheel, or... er… I guess triangle in this case. This handy little guy has packed in it every basic formula you need when applying Ohms law.
"But Baditude, this thing is just a triangle!" you might be thinking, and that's where you're wrong. Using this you can calculate any one value assuming you have the other two. Simply cover up the value you don't have and BAM! There's you're formula.
Trying to calculate voltage (V) and have resistance (R) and amperage (I)? Cover the V and we get I x R = V and that's your formula.
Have voltage (V) and amperage (I) and need resistance (R)? Cover up R. V / I = R.
Finally the most important to us vapers, when you have voltage (V) and resistance (R) and need to know the amperage (I) that a coil will pull from the battery? Cover the I and we get V / R = I. This is the formula we will use the most when rebuilding coils. We can control our voltage with VV devices and we can control our resistance with different coils, so we almost always have V and R and need to find amperage (I) to verify we're safe.
Ohm's Law Calculator -- Hate formulas or math? For those of us who are math challenged like myself.
YouTube Video: Watts, Amps, Ohms, & Volts explained
Section 4: Closing Remarks & Some Tips
So there it is! That's a basic run down on Ohms Law as it relates to vaping (and water wheels).
If using a regulated variable voltage battery device, a simple little formula to use to find the voltage needed to fire a coil is the Ohms Plus Two Formula. If you know the resistance of the coil, add the number two and the sum will be the voltage to use. For example, 2.0 ohms + 2 = 4 volts. This is a good starting point, and you can adjust + or - to find your "sweet spot".
For RBA users: When using the Ohm's Law Calculator to calculate the battery amp draw of a coil in a RBA, always use 4.2 volts as the voltage (a fully charged battery's voltage). You should never pull more amps than the continuous discharge rate in amps for that battery, and you should allow for some safe headroom on top of that. Amp ratings for batteries
Never fire a coil in a RBA without first checking the resistance with a reliable ohm reader or digital multimeter. Routinely re-check the resistance after use to insure the resistance remains what you built. Something as simple as a post screw becoming loose can change your resistance.

Behind-the-scenes footage from the making of the video for the song "Whispers" by UNSUN — the Polish band led by ex-VADER guitarist Maurycy "Mauser" Stefanowicz — can be viewed below.
"Whispers" is the first single off UNSUN's debut album, "The End Of Life", which will be released on September 22 via Century Media Records. Originally formed under the moniker UNSEEN, the dynamic four-piece decided that something incorporating day and night, light and darkness would suit them best. Thus UNSUN was born, a label perfectly encompassing the melancholic, dark and yet catchy nature of their music as well as the stark contrast between female singer Aya's highly melodic vocals and the driving, powerful riffs. Consolidated by the sheer passion to play intense music, Mauser and Aya knew upon their first rehearsals that it was their destiny to create music together. From the very beginning, UNSUN was not supposed to be just another side-project for Mauser, but his personal way of exploring new music. Thus, he and Aya started looking for other exceptional musicians to make UNSUN a full-time band. Very soon Vaaver from INDUKTI and Heinrich, who also plays bass in VESANIA, teamed up with Mauser and Aya to form the band they are today. It didn't take long for UNSUN to catch the attention of various labels throughout Europe and in 2007 they finally signed a deal with Mystic Production in their native Poland. The ink hadn't fully dried yet when Mauser and Aya already started writing the first songs for what should become their debut album, "The End Of Life", which was recorded in Poland in Studio-X in the beginning of 2008.
