lump behind my baby ear
I notice there is a lump behind my baby left ear, beneath his skin, it is a size a pea, not too hard but not soft too, it's movable. I lightly press on it, he didn't cry so I assume it doesn't hurt. Should I be worry? or it is a common thing among babies.

My baby was born with a lump behind the ear. He is 4months and i notice its little big now. Anyone with the same problem?posted 03/18/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Most likely a lymph node. Not anything to worry about. Will probably swell if they are getting sick and go back down as they get better. Allergies are a huge trigger for the swelling. We all have the lymph node just in some its closer to skin.posted 07/11/2012 by minnichnicole

Educational games support better learning in software engineering, as they reinforce concepts through practice, allowing a greater knowledge acquisition. The literature has proposed several games for software engineering teaching; however some of them do not have the evaluation of its effectiveness as a learning tool. This paper presents the game InspSoft, an educational game for teaching software inspection and the results of its evaluation by a specific model.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Btw: Am I using the term "roman" correctly?
What kind of text do you want it for? Bodytext, captions, heads?
Btw, are the line breaks the final version? Seem a bit confusing to me; how about:
»Type is idealized writing -
yet there is no end ...«
Reminds me of Goudy's italics, so one of his romans might do.
Oh - just now I see the specimen at their site :)
No worries, Indra. I'm just looking for something (a serif) that could sit right next to it, at the same size and just … look right.
That's interesting Nick. I'll look into Goudy.
An interesting question: How should italics relate to it's roman counterpart?
Any particular one, Nick? There's seems to be a lot around with very varying quality.
Any particular one, Nick? There's seems to be a lot around with very varying quality.
After due research, Village Roman; but you would have to add a slight stroke to tune up its weight to match Joos. Or slim Joos down.

I sold my iPad 4 for a mini and think its a fantastic device. However after a month of use I started to miss the display size, resolution and performance. I am keen photographer and like to edit photos on my iPad, this is one area the iPad 4 excels in.
I've now passed the mini to the wife and purchased another iPad 4. However while I'm fine with the size of the iPad 4 it's the weight I really notice over the mini. Lets hope the next iPad is lighter as the rumors suggest |

May 20, 2013, 09:17 AM | #27 |
My wife forced me to get the iPad 4. Me, not knowing any better thought the Mini would be "too small". I now regret having this Monster on my hands during bus rides. It just feels heavy, clunky, and big in my hands. I honestly think it is made for giants.
BUT, retina is really nice for reading. I no longer even need my glasses. |

Why not? If you wear reading glasses to help with small type having that small type much clearer might negate the need for reading glasses.

It will when you get older....and need reading glasses. I had perfect, 20/20 vision my entire life. I've also been a pilot for the better part of 25 years. At 42 now, in the last four years, my eyes have deteriorated. As has many men...as our lenses become less easy to focus. Retina is a marked improvement for reading and doing so without the aid of reading glasses. J |

Sure it does!
I'm nearsighted (this means things look blurry from afar) so my eyes can focus in better at clear and sharp text from a reasonable distance. Text that appears pixelated, blurry and out of focus is still hard for me to see. My guess is my brain processes the image (blurry text) in the same way if it was viewed from afar. For example, I'm looking at a wretched 1920x1200 24 inch PC monitor from a reasonable distance and I still need glasses to read the fonts. Not to mention, Windows is awesome enough to give you incredibly awful tiny fonts that are even harder to see at 96 DPI. I know, this was a shocking revelation to me as well. Apple should really do a study on the effects of retina on folks who wear glasses. |

I returned my ipad 4 for a mini and never looked back. The non retina screen bothered me for a few days, but I got used to it. The size, thinness and weight all make it the ideal ipad for me. The mini rocks!

A whole company of NPCs that can do the mundane jobs while the PCs do the hero stuff.
From [30 Police Officers]
5- Captain Cautious
This officer will wait for backup and will only advance if fully equipped and briefed. Always errs on the side of caution. Not the most popular man on the force, as others get hurt while he is suiting up.
A Leader of all the Drannor has emerged with the heart and fury of her nation. Finally, the Orc-nation of the Drannor will rise up and crush their centuries-long oppressors.
30 Guards: 27.) The Conjurer
This guard likes to learn magic in his spare time. Whilst the larger spells are beyond his ability, he knows a surprisingly large number of cantrips, which provide him with amusement or make his life easier. One lets him know if the Captain, Sergeant, or the Snitch are in the area, so that he never gets caught doing anything wrong.
8.) The Revolutionary
This guard is a secret revolutionary. He has a deep hatred for members of the aristocracy, and has made getting this job his lifes work, with the sole intention of assassinating members of the royal family when he gets the chance. So far he has been unsuccessful, first because he needed to gain their trust and then because he has never had the chance-other guards have always been in the right place at the right time. He did once use poison, but the result was not fatal for the target, who put it down to badly cooked food and sacked two of the royal cooks. In battle, he would try and kill as high-ranking a noble as he could: And if he could get away with it, a noble on his own side.
6) Hatchet: He is an ugly man who specializes in axes. He has carries a number of hatchets.
30 of the Horde, Moonhunter
No high school teens who turn out to be wonder-pilots here.
Keep your wits about you man, they are only bullets. Not like we have to brave the damned bird.
Col. Chapman at the Battle of Miner Hill

This is the first puzzle of a limited quantity of five, made out of pine wood . V-grooves were notched in the middle of one edge on each of the four outside pieces of the double 3-piece subassemblies to facilitate easier initial 'setup' (I thought). As I started the 'initial' setup, I thought I understood (and therefore easily accepted the fact) how the v-grooves would have made it easier for one to 'catch and hold' the other crossmember subassembly . . . and help keep from snapping the very tip of the angled end, seeing as how this is soft pine wood one is working with .
This earlier alteration was done before subsequent knowledge of what the pieces were supposed to look like was made available (no v-grooves) .
The next four versions that followed were made without any v-grooves, the puzzles were fabricated to exact precision, thus making the initial 'setup' extremely difficult to manipulate ( almost impossible, without some sort of jig that would hold the primary subassembly in place ), especially trying to be very careful not to snap off the very tiny tips of the angled ends .
As you can see from this pic (after clicking on it for closer inspection), the fit is very precise. This version seemed to have taken ~forever~ to initialize the starting setup.
In essence, the more precise the tolerance in the fitting of the pieces, the more difficult to actually get the 'setup' started, only because a person's dexterity would have to be at its utmost degree of execution . However, once started, the remaining movements were fairly easy, although extremely slow in progress .
The tips of the angled ends would just barely have to 'catch and hold' the side edge of its complimentary perpendicular crossmember before continuing on with the main 'baby-step' movements of slowly moving the outer pieces towards their complimentary angle ends, while the middle pieces slowly move their way down towards the center of the structure, eventually making their way to be flat along the same plane as their two outer parts .
To begin with, in one hand place one 3-piece subassembly so that the middle piece is slightly behind the other two . . . . .
With the other hand, place the two outer pieces from the second sub-assembly up against the angled ends of the first subassembly .
You will probably find it easy to just flip the entire puzzle over - alternately - to adjust the pieces accordingly as you progress through the solution .
This movement will automatically allow for further movement of the middle pieces straight into the center of their complimentary crossmember subassemblies . In other words, as you're looking down onto the puzzle, one outer piece moves to the left, the other outer piece moves to the right, while the middle piece moves away from you straight down towards the center .
This is very important !
Never allow the middle piece to be in front of the outer two !
Now place the middle piece in between .
All pieces from both subassemblies must be parallel to each other throughout your progress !
Just do the best you can to keep them parallel.
But, keep in mind, as mentioned above, that you're dealing with a low-quality craftsmanship aluminum copy, so your attention to the pieces being kept in parallel has now settled down a notch.
Start working the middle pieces so that the tips of their angled ends just start to catch . . . and hold . . . the edge of the v-grooves of their complimentary crossmembers from the opposite subassembly . Once caught, slowly work the outer pieces alternately from both subassemblies closer to their respective complimentary angled sections .
Make sure you have a good hold on your puzzle before flipping, or you will lose the rigidity of the structure, and it will collapse . . . raising your level of frustration up one notch .

What's going on at the duck pond in Fairhope?
For a town often referred to as "Mayberry on the Bay", Fairhope works in mysterious ways.
Garbage gets picked up at night, flowers appear out of nowhere. Election yard signs are arranged in a conspicuously neat order.
Now the Canada Geese are missing, at least 41 of them, anyhow. Poof. Gone in the dead of night. The rest of them got the message and flew away, apparently.
I think the Fairhope League of Shadows got 'em.
Lots of shady stuff goes on in Fairhope. Especially around election time.

Awesome: that's the best way to describe the 2013 class of Movers & Shakers. This particular group may have more librarians working outside traditional libraries than ever before, attesting to the role librarians, and those in the library field, play in the larger world. Yet whatever their title or workplace, these Movers are making outsize contributions.
This latest group of 50 (rolling out over the next week) brings the number of Movers to over 600. The Movers are quick to tell us they're stand-ins for the many creative, diligent librarians, and others, building the library future. We know there are innumerable talented candidates, and we thank all of you who took the time to send in your nominations. We couldn't present the Movers without our accomplished writers: Sarah Bayliss, Marta Murvosh, and Jen Pinkowski, who once again did the bulk of the work, along with LJ's own Meredith Schwartz and School Library Journal's Karyn M. Peterson and Mahnaz Dar. Thanks also to OCLC for continuing to support Movers & Shakers online, where you'll find Movers on the Map and a complete list of Movers from 2002 to 2013. If you're one of the 600-plus, we hope you'll join LJ to celebrate the latest honorees at the annual Movers luncheon on Friday, June 28, at the American Library Association conference in Chicago.—Francine Fialkoff, Project Manager, Movers & Shakers 2013 |

Bothell man arrested for allegedly exposing himself in local park
A Bothell man, 70, was arrested at his home Sept. 3 for allegedly exposing himself and masturbating in a public park just outside of Kenmore.
The man was caught on camera by a woman who was in the O.O. Denny Park with an 11-year-old niece. The King County Sheriff's Office circulated a censored photo in local media in an attempt to find the suspect.
Denny Park sits in unincorporated King County, in the 12400 block of Holmes Point Drive in Kirkland's designated growth or annexation area.
The picture was taken Aug. 5. County law-enforcement officials eventually compared the snapshot with photos of previously arrested exposure offenders and came up with a match, said sheriff's office spokesman Sgt. John Urquhart.
"It was really pretty easy," Urquhart added.
Police believe the suspect in the Aug. 5 incident pled guilty to two previous counts of exposing himself. He reportedly received a suspended sentence in each case. But Urquhart said because of the previous convictions, the sheriff's office likely will recommend the man be charged with a felony this time around.
As of the deadline for this issue, the suspect had not yet been formally charged and Urquhart declined to identify the man. The suspect was sitting in a King County jail and Urquhart said it was unclear when he might first face a judge.
According to a previous release from Urquhart, the Aug. 5 incident happened as follows:
Two women, ages 63 and 40, were at the park with their niece. They allegedly saw the suspect watching them and fondling himself, his hands in the pockets of his shorts.
According to Urquhart, one of the women confronted the man, but instead of stopping, he dropped his pants and continued to act out. That was when one of the victims took a photo of the suspect.
Urquhart alleges that even having his picture taken didn't deter the suspect, who left the park only after being told police were being called. He reportedly drove off in a blue Ford station wagon.

------------------------------------------------------------ C-E-N-T-E-R-L-I-N-E-S ------------------------------------------------------------ #219 Wednesday, January 21, 2009 ------------------------------------------------------------ CenterLines is the bi-weekly e-newsletter of the National Center for Bicycling & Walking. CenterLines is our way of quickly delivering news and information you can use to create more walkable and bicycle-friendly communities. F-E-A-T-U-R-E-S I-N--T-H-E--N-E-W-S FEATURES AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT -> "Today is the first day of the rest of our lives." That is a statement that could be said on any given day, but it has never felt so true and perhaps as compelling. It is January 21, 2009, and we have an opportunity, a responsibility, and a charge to make things right. Every two weeks in CenterLines we bring you stories of people, organizations, and agencies that bring great projects to life. These projects often take a long time to unfold because, as we all know, no project is born shovel ready; they are the work of many. It is a good day to be inspired by these projects and to begin to plot your own success stories. I think today is the day that we begin to methodically reshape the country – not to just spend money for the sake of spending money, but to invest money to reshape our country in a way that works for everyone. At the National Center for Bicycling & Walking we have a very humble dream: a country with a transportation system that provides choices and mobility for the very and the least mobile, for short and long trips in urban and rural America and everywhere in-between; where transportation and land use and the environment and public health are all equal parts of the solution to the puzzle; where bicyclists and pedestrians are priorities, not alternatives. Read on, get inspired and (continue to) do great things. Let's do them together. Fired-up and ready to go, UPCOMING WEBINAR: PEDSAFE, BIKESAFE PROGRAM For more about the Professional Development webinar series, see http://www.bikewalk.org/webinars.php. LAST CHANCE TO ASSIST WITH ROADMAP SURVEY -> The Active Living Resource Center needs your help in creating a "roadmap" for communities across the country. During the dozens of workshops we offer around the country each year, we often hear these questions: "How do we get started? Yes, we want to help our residents walk and bike more regularly, and yes, we have several ideas about doing so. But, what do we do next?" Because we hear this question quite frequently, we're working with communities to create an answer. More specifically, NCBW/ALRC staff are creating a "roadmap" -- a way for communities to sort through all the various sources of advice, tools, and success stories -- to select a specific way of proceeding that works best for them. If you are currently engaged in an effort to increase and improve walking and bicycling, we would like to hear about how you are implementing your efforts. Of the tools and resources created to help communities become more walkable and bike-friendly, which ones are you using, which would you like to use, and which would you use again or recommend to others? We are also interested in knowing which of your needs are currently unmet because of inadequate or non-existent tools and resources. The on-line survey should take only 15-20 minutes to complete. We received many good responses already, and we would like to hear from you. We'll close out the survey Friday, January 24th, so please don't delay. Complete the Roadmap survey at: http://tinyurl.com/6tpd2l PETERSBURG (VA) MAN WALKS TO D.C. TO HONOR DR. KING -> According to an article in the BikeWalk Virginia February News, "Last Sunday, Carl Winfield of Petersburg, began a journey he had originally planned to take in 1968. The march from Petersburg to Washington D.C. was to be a civil rights march with Martin Luther King, Jr., but it never happened because of King's assassination. "Winfield, 60, typically walks six miles a day for pleasure. He completed his 130-mile trek on Thursday, January 15--King's birthday. His march is raising money for the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Memorial. He hopes to stay in D.C. for the Presidential Inauguration."

"In addition, fully 80 percent of respondents said stimulus investments should not only create jobs, but also help the goals of reducing oil dependency, improving the environment and increasing transportation options, even if the job creation took longer. "Only 20 percent agreed that stimulus funds should include only "road and bridge projects that can be started right away and create an immediate boost to the economy.' The stimulus questions were included in the 2009 Growth and Transportation Survey sponsored by the National Association of Realtors(r) and Transportation For America, and conducted Jan 5-7..."

In addition to an ongoing series of webinars focused on social marketing instruction and case studies, Tools of Change is hosting and/or co- presenting a wide selection of publicly available webinars on ways to market healthier, more sustainable lifestyles. These webinars include the Social Marketing Instruction Series, 90-minute sessions covering topics such as Introduction to Social Marketing (January 23rd); Building Motivation Over Time (February 20th) and Incentives and Norm Appeals (March 6th). Tools of Change also offers Case Study webinars that focus on sustainable transportation, and showcase a range of approaches for promoting walking, cycling, and the use of public transit. Upcoming topics include Community-Wide Parking Management Strategies and Tools (February 24th and 26th) and Individualized Marketing: Where Do We Go From Here? (March 3rd). You can check out several of the recent webinars via free recordings at the Tools of Change website, including Child and Youth Friendly Planning Guidelines, presented by Catherine O'Brien of Cape Breton University, and School Based TDM in Action - Case Studies of Success, presented to members of the Ontario Professional Planners Institute by the Centre for Sustainable Transportation.

The funding is an attempt to jumpstart the economy and avoid a deeper recession. Will Safe Routes to School projects be included? The answer to that question may be related to how loudly we collectively demand that Safe Routes to School be funded. Read on to see how you can make a difference in this important campaign. "The details for the bill are still being worked out by Congress, but are likely to be finalized within the next month. The Safe Routes to School National Partnership continues to work with national partner organizations to advocate for the inclusion of funding for bicycle and pedestrian projects -- including Safe Routes to School and Complete Streets -- in the economic stimulus/recovery bill. It is critically important that advocates ramp up efforts to ensure that Safe Routes to School and bike/ped projects are included on lists of 'ready-to-go projects' being compiled by cities and counties, metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), and state Departments of Transportation (DOTs)..."

Mayor John Hickenlooper laid out plans for 30-40 automated kiosk-style bike racks across the city which will facilitate a fleet of 500 specifically designed bicycles. "Creating a community-wide bike share program in a major city positions Colorado firmly as a leader in the public's desire for friendly bicycle accommodations. The bike share program is modeled off of dramatically successful programs in many European cities."

School siting is a very important policy issue in the SRTS movement as the number one reason parents give for why their children don't walk or bicycle to school is distance. "The purpose of this effort is to provide state and local planning agencies, which are directly responsible for the location of schools, with guidance in respect to environmental issues when making siting decisions. EPA's Office of Children's Health Protection and Environmental Education is designated as the lead office to manage this agency-wide effort."

MassBike played a central role throughout the history of the bill, from drafting the language, to lobbying for its passage, to the successful 2006 effort that ended in a veto, and now to a law! MassBike thanks our many supporters in the House and Senate for their persistence, and thanks Governor Patrick for recognizing that this law will help make Massachusetts a healthier, greener, more sustainable state. "This is a great victory for cyclists, and it was a true team effort, ranging from MassBike to legislators to you, our members and supporters. Without all your calls, emails, and letters to legislators and governors over the years, this could not have happened. You let the politicians know that bicyclist safety is an important issue, and they heard the message! So thanks to all of you. "Governor Patrick signed the bill into law yesterday. Coming on the heels of a year that saw gas prices soar to over $4 a gallon, huge increases in ridership on public transportation, and a surge in interest in bicycle commuting, the law will help more people, particularly new and less experienced bicyclists, take advantage of bicycling as an affordable transportation option..."

RTC set to work developing a multi-pronged approach to make the most of the stimulus. "We asked you to sign a petition encouraging President-elect Obama and key congressional leaders to explicitly fund walking and biking in this stimulus package. Thank you for answering the call! You surpassed our initial goal of 10,000 signatures by thousands, issuing a resounding call for more walking and biking. "Working with our national and local partners, we also collected from communities across the country a list of ready-to-go bicycle and pedestrian projects that would help jump-start our economy with new clean, green jobs. In total, we collected more than $3.4 billion worth of new bicycle and pedestrian projects that, if funded, will enable people to walk and bike to the places where they live, work, play and learn. "RTC has delivered these project lists, along with a list of your petition signatures, to the offices of President-elect Barack Obama, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. We will continue working with these and other congressional offices to ensure they recognize the opportunity the stimulus package represents for green jobs to build healthier places for healthier people..."

And we really believe it! Not only do we have a new Congress, a new Administration, and a new President to educate on our issues, but we also face the incredible possibility that more than a trillion dollars of Federal investment in our infrastructure, our communities and our ailing economy will be decided in the next few months. "The 2009 National Bike Summit will help you keep your stimulus packages, climate change bills and transportation funding programs straight...and you'll discover how to most effectively speak up for bicyclists in these critical discussions on Capital Hill.

Chicago's Mayor Daley's Safe Routes Ambassador's Program has a very successful safety program from which we can learn. "In a sixty minute webinar (to be held on Jan. 27th at 2pm ET), Somilia Smith, Program Coordinator of Chicago's Safe Routes Ambassador Program, will provide a short introduction and background of Mayor Daley's Safe Routes Ambassadors program including its various educational and encouragement components. "The introduction will be followed by a detailed explanation of the two main components of the programming: pedestrian and bicycle safety. This will include information on the curricula, the age groups and communities served and how safety workshops are administered. Finally, Somilia will give a brief description of other components of the program, including workshops for driver's education students and outreach to parents and motorists. "This webinar is part of the Safe Routes Coaching Action Network Webinar Series, developed by America Walks and the National Center for Safe Routes to School." QUOTES R US
-> "If you said to the states as they start to submit their list for transportation projects, a major goal is energy sustainability and reducing the reliance on petroleum, how does this rank relative to that? And if it's just about adding more lanes to existing roads or building new interstates or whatever, then in fairness it should not rank very high at all. On the other hand, if it comes in and it's a fix-it first approach, or if it's a walkability approach or a transit approach that significantly contributes, not only to the energy sustainability goal, but perhaps to the environmental global climate change goals and things of this approach, then it should rank higher." -> "Current federal infrastructure policies and programs are highly compartmentalized, often working at cross-purposes. In transportation, for example, we are one of the few industrialized countries that fails to link aviation, highways, freight rail, mass transit and passenger rail networks." -> "Fast relief for transportation headaches is one of the immediate benefits we can see from the economic recovery legislation being sought by President-elect Obama. States are prepared to move thousands of ready-to-go highway projects that can support 1.8 million jobs. Long term, these transportation investments will build or preserve assets that will help the economy for years." -> "Relieving our nation's transportation headaches will go a long way toward relieving the nation's economic headaches by creating jobs in the short and long term and by increasing the nation's productivity and economic competitiveness." -> "I think there's a place for infrastructure, but what kind of infrastructure? Infrastructure to widen highways, to ease congestion for American families? Is it to build some buildings that are necessary? But if we're talking about beautification projects, or we're talking about bike paths, Americans are not going to look very kindly on this."
-> "84% of the Dutch have a positive opinion of the bicycle, while 7% have a negative opinion. Frequent cyclists are positive about cycling much more often (95% of them express a positive opinion) than Dutch travellers who almost never use bicycles (29% of them have a negative opinion). The bicycle is often associated with low costs, self-reliance and reliable travel times (it always gets you there on time). "Bicycle users hardly ever encounter bottlenecks. If they foresee any problems, it primarily concerns bad weather. The behaviour of other road users is sometimes considered irritating, and the availability of sufficient bicycle storage options can sometimes present problems for travel during leisure hours." LONDON (UK) CYCLING SAFER WITH MORE CYCLISTS -> "There is plenty of evidence showing that cycling gets safer the more cyclists there are. In London there has been a 91% increase in cycle use on the capital's main roads since 2000, and a 33% reduction in cycle casualties in roughly the same period." SETTING UP SUPERSTORES AND CLIMATE CHANGE -> "The lengthy evaluation may be summarized in one sentence: carbon dioxide emissions are four times stronger when shopping in a suburban hypermarket than when shopping in a local supermarket. Taking into account the very strong impact on CO2 emissions of the hypermarket situated on the outskirts, the question arises as to whether, in the light of sustainable development, this is the right model to export throughout the world." IN
THE NEWS THE NAT'L BUILDING MUSEUM'S GREEN COMMUNITY EXHIBIT -> According to a Building Design+Construction article, "The first thing you notice about the National Building Museum's 'Green Community' exhibit is that it looks a lot different from other shows. Almost everything, from the patterns in the cork floor to the exhibit panels to the tubular time line of green technology dating to ancient Rome, is in the shape of a circle. And that puts you in the round frame of mind right from the get-go, thinking planet Earth and recycling, and thinking outside the rectangle. "Before you begin to circle through this innovative, globe-trotting exhibit, you have to think about how to get there. Will you bike, take the bus or automatically reach for your car keys? An interactive floor leading to the exhibit depicts a street with three lanes; choose one and as you walk along it lights up and reveals the impact your decision is having on the environment. "The exhibit also works hard to find engaging ways to communicate a large amount of complex and sometimes technical information that can be hard to digest. There's more than a spoonful of sugar here, though, in its backlit transparencies that bring vibrancy and immediacy to static images, in its short films and interactive video screens, and in its novel methods of presentation..."

Last summer, the urban cycling advocate woke up to find a pair of shiny new bikes on his front porch, with nothing but an appreciative note from an anonymous supporter encouraging his work with inner-city kids. This week, the cycling fairy struck again. Walker received an unexpected phone call from New Jersey-based Sanofi-Aventis, a pharmaceutical company with 16,000 employees nationwide. "This week, one of its therapeutics divisions was meeting in Kansas City and, as a team-building exercise, the group built a bunch of children's bicycles. Diana Felts, an official at the conference, says she put in a call to the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce to see who might benefit from a small fleet of kids' bikes. A few hours later, Walker's phone rang. "In the six months since he started the Urban Kansas City Community of Cycling, which prompted the anonymous doorstep donations, Walker has been tapped by Mayor Mark Funkhouser to serve on KC's Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Committee and dubbed a Missouri State Ambassador by the League of American Bicyclists. Most recently, he's been working with the Scuola Vita Nuova charter school to prepare a class of seventh-graders for a 225-mile trip over the Katy Trail this summer. Needless to say, Walker can always use some extra bikes..."

Very simply, green fitness is a way to improve your personal health while minimizing your use of resources. Driving five miles to the gym to walk on an electric treadmill for an hour uses fossil fuels, contributes to pollution and costs a fair amount in terms of your financial resources. "A greener, cheaper way to get fit (and just as effective according to the experts) is to take an hour's walk right outside your front door. If you think walking stops when cold weather sets in, think again! Here's what you need to walk smart all winter long -- whether you're walking in your neighborhood or around town on errands..."

Walkability expert Dan Burden is explaining that sidewalks aren't enough. He says buildings need to be occupied and they need to have windows. 'I'll use one as an example, the pharmacy on the corner that we saw. I assume at one time there were windows in that building. Once those windows go away, people no longer feel secure,' Burden said. Who would have thought that windows in the downtown would make people want to walk? But research shows that amenities like windows make a place look more vital, encouraging people to be more active. "Just a few months ago Albert Lea hosted the reality TV show, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. So it's a town that might be open to these ideas. The town of 18,000 sits on the Iowa border. 'Albert Lea is really a changing community. For many years we were known as a meatpacking town,' said Victoria Simonsen, Albert Lea's city manager. Simonsen helped convince Blue Zones leadership to test its city health makeover project in Albert Lea. The city has been looking for ways to redefine itself in light of a new workforce, she says..."

Currently, speeders and red-light runners are penalized by the scandal-plagued ACS, but plans have been underway since 2007 to hand over operations. City spokesman George Teply said after the transition, the city could add more cameras and radar to intersections. 'This project has been pretty fast, to move it over from the contractor to the city,' he said. "Before taking over photo enforcement from ACS, the city must switch out all cameras and other equipment. Bids for that contract ended yesterday. Although the matter still hasn't been brought before council, Coun. Amarjeet Sohi said he would support installing more red-light cameras. 'My opinion is red-light cameras are a very successful tool to reduce collisions and fatalities at intersections,' he said..."

The committee lends legitimacy to the Merced Bike Coalition, a passionate and vocal group that lobbied hard for the committee and advocates bicycling for recreation and as an acceptable form of transportation. Its members, as well as other city bicyclists, will formally have the council's ear as it advises them about the needs and wishes of the biking community. "In another nod to cycling, the council voted to apply to become a bicycle-friendly community, as designated by the League of American Bicyclists. Establishing another city committee met with some resistance and almost seemed unlikely during the council's first January meeting. Council members fretted about the cost and feared the city may be forced to cut the committee should money become even tighter.

"Code inspectors have taken to the streets this winter with a new weapon, palm-size computers with touch screens that snap photographs of treacherous patches of ice, snow, and slush. Thumbnail images are stamped on tickets and printed instantly with a wireless 32-ounce printer slung over an officer's shoulder like a purse. "Officials hope the immediacy of the photographs will act as a deterrent, reducing the number of slick sidewalks that twist ankles, flare tempers, and force some pedestrians to walk in the street, which can be dangerous. When property owners find a green envelope for a code violation stuffed under their doors, they are staring at evidence they will have to explain if they plan to appeal..."

They announced that the broadcasts would most likely be free and would offer local news, weather and traffic information. "Manufacturers such as LG and Samsung are working on phones and other devices that can accept the free broadcast TV signals. However, Mark Aitken, director of advanced technology for the Sinclair Broadcasting Group recognizes that there's a 'chicken and egg' element to the technology's development -- why develop the broadcasting signals when there are currently no devices that can receive them? "The broadcasters have resolved to deal with that conundrum by taking the initiative. 'Broadcasters have come together and said "We'll be the chicken,"' Aitken told CES attendees. The technology has an additional potential in that in emergency situations the broadcast TV signals won't overload cell phone networks and can transmit critical emergency information..."

"The Town of Ithaca Planning Board voted Tuesday night to accept the draft scoping document for the Environmental Impact Statement -- one of the first steps in the lengthy environmental review process for the project. Board members asked for more information about traffic, lighting, glare, neighborhood views and project phasing before voting. Developer John Rancich and designer Steve Bauman came to the town with the idea for Carrowmoor several years ago. They spent a year working with a Town Board committee to create a draft local law that would change the zoning to allow the development..."

Ideas for the proposed town center came out of a set of public meetings last week and include creating a downtown gateway that would preserve the area's character and small-town flavor. Plans include extending Main Street, home to the city's two-block historic district, to the Interstate 35 access road. "Still in the early planning stages, the redevelopment does not yet have a price tag. Currently, drivers coming from I-35 access downtown via Round Rock Avenue (RM 620), which runs just north of Main Street. Under the scenario, visitors to the city would be greeted by a hotel, a theater and shops that will be perched at the new entrance. Neal Payton, a partner with Torti Gallas and Partners , a Los Angeles-based architecture firm hired by the city, said the entryway is key to the plan..."

West Bloomfield and Commerce townships, along with Walled Lake and Wixom, are the potential recipients of railroad property that could be converted into walkable trails. There's just one problem: Three of the four communities don't have the money to buy the land, which if converted, could provide a continuous trail network from Lake Huron to Lake Michigan. The former Grand Trunk Western Railway line is owned by Railmark Holdings, which operated the Michigan Star Clipper dinner train that ended service Dec. 31. "Railmark president B. Allen Brown is negotiating a deal with Montoff Transportation Co., LLC, of Seattle for the nine miles of rail. Brown did not return calls seeking comment, but has said the sale of the line would eventually result in the transfer of each piece of railroad to the communities served by the line. In previous interviews, Brown would not disclose his selling price, but municipal officials involved in the project estimated the price to be $3.5 million. Chuck Montange, a managing member of Montoff, said the process of selling rail lines is 'complicated.' Under federal law, the railroad can only be sold to another rail company.

Back to London
Trip Start
May 01, 2009
Trip End
I was happy to arrive at the terminal on time, and once on the boat I attempted to get more sleep, but didn't have much luck. I did manage to see the sun rise over the Irish Sea...but I think i would have appreciated the sleep more!
It was off the boat at Liverpool, where I had 3 1/2 hours to get to the bus station. It took me about 45 minutes to get there (including a stop for a cornish pasty for breakfast) but i was so knackered that I couldn't be arsed looking around, so I just killed the time in the bus station. 5 1/2 hours on the bus, then about 50 minutes on the tube and I was back home!

The government of Honghe Prefecture, in the south of Yunnan Province, has applied for inclusion to the UN's list of World Natural and Cultural Heritage site, for the terraced fields in the small county of Yuanyang, where each year the Hani people hold a banquet so large they consume entire towns. The annual festival and the splendor of Yuanyang's rice terraces are drawing increasing interest from travelers and photographers alike. The following is the first of two articles highlighting Yuanyang. In the southern tip of Yunnan, one of China's southernmost provinces, we crossed the galloping Yuanjiang River, then drove among the lofty mountains of Ailao, where a vast expanse of terraced fields came into view. The terraces are spectacular, but with dark approaching, we dared not stay too long and headed to Habo Village, Ezha Town, more than 100 kilometers from the old county seat of Yuanyang. The terraces could wait, but we were destined for another of the region's wonderful sights: the Changlong (Long-Dragon) Banquet of the Hani people. Around the time of China's Spring Festival, the Hanis celebrate the Yangmatu Festival in honor of their heroes and pray for the union of the Hani people and good harvests. The festival usually lasts for three days, when the locals participate in sacrificial ceremonies in the center of the village and enjoy food at a grand banquet in the middle of the street. The villagers are more than happy to welcome visitors to join them. All family members reunite during this time, dressing up in their best clothes and rolling out their best dishes to share with neighbors at the street banquet. In the Hani language, "Habo" means a mountain village surrounded by bamboo groves. Habo Village has retained its festive tradition for generations, and its Long-Dragon Banquet is the largest of its kind and the most representative culture of the Hani people in Yuanyang County and the Hani and Yi Prefecture in Honghe. It took a whole day to reach Habo Village from Kunming. We woke early the next morning to the hubbub of children, and discovered the entire village seething with excitement. Square tables were lined up in the street, hundreds of them. "How could that be?" I wondered. "There was nothing there last night when we arrived."
As the morning passed, the street became busier and busier. Villagers, young and old, dressed in their best, all looked happy, as the adults busied themselves with preparations and the children played games in groups.

July 17, 2012 Overthinking ItPECOTA's First-Half Hits and Misses
Sometimes you're not quite sure what your next column is going to be about, and then you get a pair of tweets like this: And then you know exactly what your next column is going to be about. Half of the fun of having a projection system is bragging about what went right. The other half is figuring out what went wrong. This article does a bit of both. These are the position players and pitchers whose 2012 True Averages and Fair Run Averages PECOTA has come closest to and furthest away from predicting (minimum 200 plate appearances or 80 innings pitched). In keeping with BP tradition, each hit or miss is inexplicably accompanied by a haiku. Batters Hits 10. Will Venable
He can do it all 9. Chris Davis
Heyward back on track
Pagan and Torres 6. Zack Cozart
Cozart hasn't hit

Had him on my team 8. Kurt Suzuki
Game's most-played catcher
Tigers MVP:

Maybe these are the 4. Nick Hundley

Most catchers can't hit 2. Mark Trumbo
Mark Trumbo's home runs 1. Mike Trout
No 20-year-old Pitchers Hits 10. Edwin Jackson
This one was easy Jackson's stats have barely budged As good as he gets? 9. Joe Blanton
Most NL home runs
Barring a bad half 7. Phil Hughes
Some writers said that
Life's three certainties:
He does everything 4. Matt Moore
Not every arm
Some scouts said Harrell
Zim could be an ace
Dave Duncan is gone Misses 10. Hector Noesi
Pineda is out
The scary thing is
When pitchers are off
PECOTA thinks more 6. Tim Lincecum
PECOTA believed 5. Ricky Romero
Okay, so maybe 4. Matt Garza

UIElement.Drop event
Occurs when the input system reports an underlying drop event with this element as the drop target.
<uiElement Drop="eventhandler"/>
Event information
Delegate | DragEventHandler |
For Drop to occur and to invoke a handler, the value of AllowDrop on the UIElement that is the drop target and also on the drag-drop action source must be true.
A typical handler will check the Data value from the DragEventArgs event data.
The Windows Runtime implementation of drag-drop concepts permits only certain controls and input actions to initiate a drag-drop action. There is no generalized DoDragDrop method that would permit any UI element to initiate a drag-drop action. The main source of a drag-drop action in an app is when you drag the items of a list such as GridView. However once the action is initiated, any UIElement in the app can potentially be a drop target so long as AllowDrop is true on that element, and any elements that the drag-drop action passes over can handle DragEnter, DragLeave or DragOver.
Drop is a routed event. An element must have AllowDrop be true to be a Drop event source. If the event is permitted to bubble up to parent elements because it goes unhandled, then it is possible to handle the event on a parent element if AllowDrop is true on the parent element. Intermediate elements in the route that aren't either the handler object or the drop target don't need AllowDrop to be true. For more info on the routed event concept, see Events and routed events overview.
For touch actions, drag-drop actions, and also for interaction-specific or manipulation events that are consequences of a touch action, an element must be hit-test visible in order to be the event source and fire the event that is associated with the action. UIElement.Visibility must be Visible. Other properties of derived types also affect hit-test visibility, for example IsEnabled. For more info, see Hit testing and input events.
Drop supports the ability to attach event handlers to the route that will be invoked even if the event data for the event is marked Handled. See AddHandler.
Specific Windows Runtime controls may have class-based handling for the Drop event. If so, the control's logic probably has an override for the method OnDrop. Typically the event is marked handled by the class handler, and the Drop event is not raised for handling by any user code handlers on that control. For more info, see Input event handlers in controls.
Independent of the event occurrence, some controls may use theme animations such as DragItemThemeAnimation to visually indicate a drag behavior to the user.
