Modern Angular Rural Family Home in Canada
Surrounded on all sides by a sweeping Canadian hayfield, the 23.2 House is an angular ode to rural life. Out of "respect for the beams and their history," Designer Omer Arbel insisted that not a single reclaimed plank—still marked by nailheads and chipped paint—be cut nor altered during construction, which gave the home its striking geometric motif. It's what he refers to as the "alchemy between material and process," which also inspired the textured concrete walls and crisply milled walnut furniture.
Murray's Law
"Form follows function" has been the go-to paradigm for evaluating good design since American architect Louis Sullivan articulated the idea more than a century ago. For Murray Moss, a former actor and fashion executive who opened his eponymous design shop in New York's SoHo district in 1994, industrial objects are far more than merely the sum of those parts. "My job is to illuminate someone else's ideas," Moss says. Visitors to his carefully curated store-cum-gallery can view one-of-a-kind conceptual commissions alongside traditional crafts and a selection of mass produced pieces. By incorporating the narrative of theater and the drama of couture, he has assumed the role of arbiter, shining a spotlight on modern design's growing imperative to both show and tell.
Mod Men
Todd Goddard and Andrew Mandolene have a spring in their step since completing their restoration of the near-derelict 1957 home of architect Arthur Witthoefft, who says, "I can't get over what they've done—–it's unbelievable."

Hi.. new to Nikon & DSLR & this forum.. sorry for this very newbie question but I'm pretty paranoid since I'm such a newbie to DSLRs, and I'm not sure wheather this is a normal error message. My D3100 displays the message "Shutter Released Disabled. Recharge Battery.", however.. I've only been using it for maybe 40-50 shots and 3-5 mins of video.. is this normal for the original battery? I've only had the camera for about 2-3 days and charged it fully once..but I don't want to wait till after my refund period is up if there is something faulty with the camera/battery.I'm hoping to get some insight from all of you experienced users..Thanks in advance, any help is much appreciated!Regards,MW

Hi _____,Welcome to Nikonians!Congratulations on your new D3100.Camera batteries need several charge and discharge cycles before they reach maximum capacity.Were you using Live View to capture the 40-50 images?The reason I ask, is Live View drinks batteries.BTW: We always encourage our members to fill in their real first and last names, and have made that issue a part of our Terms of Use.The intent is to foster a community of "real people" instead of mysterious web-personalities with anonymous screen names. Doing this helps to establish and maintain a safe, civil and friendly environment. Thanks in advance.Good Luck and Enjoy your Nikons!

Mean,I don't have any experience with a D3100; However, I would do what the error message says, and recharge the battery. Then continue to use the camera, and see if it happens again. You should probably try to see if the camera is faulty first, but I recommend always having a backup battery.Hopefully, others will be familiar with this particular problem.Charlie

Battery doesn't sound like it's fully holding the charge. I always buy at least one spare for each of my cameras (for the power hungry ones I'll get two). Get a good battery, confirm it's not the camera or the charger that's the problem.

My D3200 documentation said you can permanently damage the battery if you discharge it to far. When the battery is to low my camera shutter is disabled as well, the way it was designed. I can only guess that yours is the same.
#5. "RE: Newbie Question - Shutter Release Disabled" | In response to Reply # 4
Thanks for all of your helpful responses.The battery is the original genuine battery that came with the purchase, so I'm hoping it's because I haven't gone through a few charge/discharge cycles.I'm glad to hear that the D3200 has a feature that disables the shutter to prevent battery damage - at least I know it's probably not a defective camera as I can't imagine the D3100 would be that far off from D3200...Hopefully in a few days I'm able to see improvement in the charge of the battery...Thanks again!! I'm not as anxious anymore MW

May 16th, 2013 at 12:37 PM
***PHOTO1***Mark Cuban has always displayed somewhat unconventional behavior as the owner of the Dallas Mavericks.

With the Dallas Mavericks sitting at 26-33, 5 1/2 games back of the Utah Jazz for the final playoff spot in the West with 23 games left, there would be plenty reason for the Mavs to call it a season and start trying to evaluate for next season.

Reverend Professor Peter J. Gomes, Eminent Gay Theologian, Dies at 68
Plymouth, Massachusetts – One of America's best-known preachers and theologians, and arguably the most famous out gay scholar in the nation, Peter J. Gomes died February 28 of a brain aneurysm and heart attack. He was 68 years old. For three and a half decades, Gomes was a member of the faculty of Harvard Divinity School, and served as Pusey Minister in the Memorial Church as well as Plummer Professor of Christian Morals. A New York Times Bestselling Author, Gomes will be remembered as the person who put the Bible's teachings within reach of an intelligent, progressive secular audience with his widely acclaimed book, The Good Book: Reading the Bible with Mind and Heart (HarperOne: 2002). The son of a Cape Verdean father and a Bostonian mother, Gomes graduated from Bates College in 1965 and Harvard Divinity School in 1968. As he rose to prominence in Harvard, African Americans rejoiced to have a scholar and preacher so well situated in the academy. In recognition of the role he fulfilled in American black life, Henry Louis Gates featured Gomes in the Public Broadcasting System documentary,African American Lives 2. A life-long Republican until 2006 (having offered prayers at the inaugurations of Presidents George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan), Gomes became a registered Democrat in order to vote for Deval Patrick, the first African American Governor in Massachusetts history. In 1991, Gomes shocked the public by coming out openly as a gay man during a campus controversy over homosexuality–a story he tells eloquently inThe Good Book. Upon announcing his sexual orientation in order to support Harvard gay and lesbian students, Gomes was targeted by a hail of criticism. His defense of himself was forceful, measured, and laser-sharp: "Many of my critics, chiefly from within the religious community, asked if I read the same Bible they did, and if I did, how then could I possibly reconcile my position with that of scripture? When arguments failed, anathemas were hurled and damnations promised. The whole incident confirmed what had long been my suspicion. Fear was at the heart of homophobia, as it was at the heart of racism, and as with racism,religion—particularly the Protestant evangelical kind that had nourished me—was the moral fig leaf that covered naked prejudice" [The Good Book, p. 166]. Throughout the rest of his life, Gomes combatted fear and advocated for the equality of all people, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. Among his other New York Times Bestselling books are The Good Life: Truths That Last in Times of Need (2003), and most recently The Scandalous Gospel of Jesus: What's So Good About the Good News? (2007). Gomes suffered a stroke in December 2010, and was recently transferred to a rehabilitation center in his beloved hometown of Plymouth. News reports suggested that he was planning to return to Harvard this spring, and fulfill his career until his announced retirement in 2012. As the Harvard Crimson says, "He maintained a tremendous presence at Harvard as well as around the country." More particularly for the LGBTQ community, Professor Gomes's voice of faithful sanity and his incarnated presence as a person who was both black and gay will be sorely missed. Ave atque vale, Professor Gomes! "Hail and fare you well!"
New Book Announcement: "The Meaning of Matthew" by Judy Shepard
The Matthew Shepard Foundation, http://www.matthewshepard.org, announces the publication of a new book on Matthew Shepard authored by his mother, Judy Shepard: The Meaning of Matthew: My Son's Murder in Laramie, and a World Transformed. From the book announcement letter:
"Today, the name Matthew Shepard is synonymous with gay rights, but before his grisly murder in 1998, Matthew was simply Judy Shepard's son. For the first time in book form, Judy Shepard speaks about her loss, sharing memories of Matthew, their life as a typical American family, and the pivotal event in the small college town that changed everything.
"The Meaning of Matthew follows the Shepard family in the days immediately after the crime, when Judy and her husband traveled to see their incapacitated son, kept alive by life support machines; how the Shepards learned of the incredible response from strangers all across America who held candlelit vigils and memorial services for their child; and finally, how they struggled to navigate the legal system as Matthew's murderers were on trial. Heart-wrenchingly honest, Judy Shepard confides with readers about how she handled the crippling loss of her child, why she became a gay rights activist, and the challenges and rewards of raising a gay child in America today.
"The Meaning of Matthew not only captures the historical significance and complicated civil rights issues surrounding one young man's life and death, but it also chronicles one ordinary woman's struggle to cope with the unthinkable."
All proceeds from the sale of the book will go to support the work of the Matthew Shepard Foundation. This is a landmark book not to be missed by supporters of the Unfinished Lives Project.
Ten Years Later: Remembering Matthew Shepard
Sunday, October 12 marks the tenth anniversary of Matthew Shepard's death. In honor of this important day, I offer an excerpt of a chapter in my forthcoming book, Unfinished Lives: Reviving the Memories of LGBT Hate Crimes Murder Victims. The chapter is entitled, "The Second Death of Matthew Shepard."
Another Mother's Day came and went. Another Father's Day, too. Matt Shepard's chair is empty in the Shepard home in Casper, Wyoming: no card from him, or roses for his mom; no tie or set of slippers for his dad–for over ten years. His parents, Judy and Dennis Shepard, and his younger brother, Logan, miss him everyday.
At the center of advocacy for LGBT freedom remains the enigmatic memory of the young, blond man trussed to a buck fence in Laramie, Wyoming. He has become the symbol for the hurts and hopes of lesbians, gay men, bisexual people, and transgender folk, both here and abroad. Curiosity or outrage at what happened to him usually begins the change in heart and attitude about hate crimes for the millions who hear his story. That alone is reason enough to tell and retell Matt's story, and the stories of so many other LGBT people who have died so brutally. But are we any closer to understanding the real person, or is that person locked away behind the closed door of a decade of myth-making and amnesia? For most Americans, other than his family and his closest friends, the only way we come to know him is through the veil of the savagery that cut his life short. He suffered the dying, but we deal with the effects of his death.
There may be no way to recover who Matt Shepard was: the complicated young man who comes to life when his mother talks about his passionate opinions, his flashing temper, his generosity to a fault, his love of politics, his hopes of becoming a human rights advocate… and, we must add, his disturbing naïveté. The person he might have been is long gone. Like Beth Loffreda says, what we have left is the "whiplash" of his memory, haunting Laramie and haunting us, luring and stinging the conscience of our violent American society. Forgetfulness seems not to work. We can neither forget him, nor should we. In telling and retelling how his life ended lies the hope that a grace of transformation may seize us. Justice may yet be done, and hatred may change gradually into acceptance: of LGBT people by others and by themselves, of those who strike out against persons they fear and do not understand, and ultimately, of the need to grant each other room to live and let live.
Rest in peace, brother. We who survive you cannot, yet. We have much work to do.
Stephen V. Sprinkle

Super Talent Certifies Its Second Drive, The RC4, for Windows To Go
San Jose, California - February 11, 2013 - Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of flash storage solutions and DRAM memory modules, announces its USB 3.0 Express RC4 has been certified for usage with Windows To Go, a new feature of Microsoft's Windows 8 Enterprise edition. The RC4 is SuperTalent's second drive to be certified to date. Windows To Go enables enterprises to provision a full corporate image on an external USB drive which users can boot and operate from almost any PC. SuperTalent plans to continue to work with firms to unveil its "hardware secure" version in the near future.
Certified through the Windows 8 Hardware certification kit, Super Talent's RC4 is one of the world's top USB 3.0 drives with SSD technology; it provides high random read/write speed capabilities and reports itself as fixed media. Super Talent's RC4 meets and surpasses many of the performance requirements of Windows To Go certified drives.
"We are pleased to announce SuperTalent's second Windows To Go certified drive, the RC4. We are committed to providing our customers with a rich, consistent, and personalized Windows 8 experience even when they run Windows 8 from a USB drive. Super Talent continues to offer drives specifically optimized for Windows To Go to help us fulfill this vision" - Stella Chernyak; Senior Enterprise, Microsoft.
The integration of SSD technology enables the RC4 to deliver exceptional real world performance with outstanding reliability. Using the SSD firmware, the RC4 is over-provisioned at an enterprise level of 10 percent. This change significantly elevates the drive's performance and increases the product's longevity and reliability.
The RC4 includes four channels of NAND flash with a high performance, low power consuming-JMicron SSD/bridge controller. Above this, it is the enterprise level provisioning that allows for incredible 4K random sequential read/write scores-making the RC4 ideal for loading applications. With STT's drive it is just as quick and easy to run a program on the RC4 as it would be to run it on your own SSD.
"We are pleased to announce the certification of our second USB 3.0 drive with Windows To Go. Microsoft Corp. is a valued partner of SuperTalent Technology. Our R&D team has been devoted to a successful launch for both partners." - Abraham Ma, CEO, Super Talent Technology

Not all marketing tactics make sense for all businesses, so it's important that you assign the right amount of time and cash to your specific campaigns, Felicia Baratz-Savage writes. That means understanding your brand and your customers, and figuring out whether they're more likely to respond to social media, search or some other method. "Marketing budgets are hardly infinite, which is why it's always important to make sure you're putting your hard earned money in the right places," Baratz-Savage writes.

"What are benzodiazepines, and how do they work?
Benzodiazepines are a class of drugs primarily used for treating anxiety, but they also are effective in treating several other conditions. The exact mechanism of action of benzodiazepin"...
As with other CNS-acting drugs, patients should be cautioned against driving automobiles or operating dangerous machinery until it is known that they do not become drowsy or dizzy on oxazepam therapy.
Patients should be warned that the effects of alcohol or other CNS-depressant drugs may be additive to those of Serax (oxazepam) , possibly requiring adjustment of dosage or elimination of such agents.
Physical and Psychological Dependence
Withdrawal symptoms, similar in character to those noted with barbiturates and alcohol (convulsions, tremor, abdominal and muscle cramps, vomiting, and sweating), have occurred following abrupt discontinuance of oxazepam. The more severe withdrawal symptoms have usually been limited to those patients who received excessive doses over an extended period of time. Generally milder withdrawal symptoms (e.g., dysphoria and insomnia) have been reported following abrupt discontinuance of benzodiazepines taken continuously at therapeutic levels for several months. Consequently, after extended therapy, abrupt discontinuation should generally be avoided and a gradual dosage-tapering schedule followed. Addiction-prone individuals (such as drug addicts or alcoholics) should be under careful surveillance when receiving oxazepam or other psychotropic agents because of the predisposition of such patients to habituation and dependence.
Use in Pregnancy
An increased risk of congenital malformations associated with the use of minor tranquilizers (chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, and meprobamate) during the first trimester of pregnancy has been suggested in several studies. Serax (oxazepam) , a benzodiazepine derivative, has not been studied adequately to determine whether It, too, may be associated with an increased risk of fetal abnormality. Because use of these drugs is rarely a matter of urgency, their use during this period should almost always be avoided. The possibility that a woman of childbearing potential may be pregnant at the time of Institution Of therapy should be considered. Patients should be advised that if they become pregnant during therapy or intend to become pregnant they should communicate with their physician about the desirability of discontinuing the drug.
Although hypotension has occurred only rarely, oxazepam should be administered with caution to patients in whom a drop in blood pressure might lead to cardiac complications. This is particularly true in the elderly patient.
Serax (oxazepam) 15 mg tablets, but none of the other available dosage forms of this product, contain FD&C Yellow 5 (tartrazine) which may cause allergic-type reactions (including bronchial asthma) in certain susceptible individuals. Although the overall incidence of FD&C Yellow 5 (tartrazine) sensitivity in the general population is low, it is frequently seen in patients who also have aspirin hypersensitivity.
Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients under 6 years of age have not been established. Absolute dosage for pediatric patients 6 to 12 years of age is not established.
Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of Serax (oxazepam) were not adequate to determine whether subjects aged 65 and over respond differently than younger subjects. Age (< 80 years old) does not appear to have a clinically significant effect on oxazepam kinetics (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY).
Clinical circumstances, some of which may be more common in the elderly, such as hepatic or renal impairment, should be considered. Greater sensitivity of some older individuals to the effects of Serax (oxazepam) (e.g., sedation, hypotension, paradoxical excitation) cannot be ruled out (see PRECAUTIONS, General; see ADVERSE REACTIONS). In general, dose selection for Serax (oxazepam) for elderly patients should be cautious, usually starting at the lower end of the dosing range (See DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).

Is YouTube laggy for you?
Well, I've realized for some time now that every time I play a 1080p fullscreen video on YouTube (not on any other video site like Vimeo though) that it is extremely "laggy" and the frame rate is stupid low. If I exit fullscreen and switch to the small or large player though, it's fine. I even upgraded the RAM on my late 2009 iMac 2.66 i5 from 4 to 12GB mostly because it was getting maxed out as it was and there was a sale at OWC. Even though my heavy apps like AutoCAD, MATLAB, and Mathematica run smoother now, YouTube is still lagging in fullscreen. I know it's not my computer or internet because if I play a fullscreen HD video on any other site or in iTunes, the iMac plays them fine and smooth. So I feel like this is a problem that lies within YouTube. Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, are there any solutions or are we stuck with choppy videos? Thanks for the input in advance! Oh, and I've tried using YouTube in both the HTML5 and Flash versions...

You're not the only one. I remember a day when I could run Youtube at 1080p with nary a hitch. Not so much anymore. I experience the exact same thing you do, and usually have to knock it down to 720p before I'll get smooth playback.
What's causing it? I have no idea. I've tried it with Chrome's built in flash. The standalone executable. A browser specific executable. None of them net me better results. |

I've recently found YouTube to be unreliable as well. I think it's just their servers are bogged down more than they used to be. Inevitable given that more and more content is being uploaded, and more of it is HD (exponentially larger files to process) and longer in duration as well.
Also, I notice that they no longer send you an actual mp4 or flv movie, but they stream it in 1.7 MB chunks -- presumably to prevent you from capturing and saving the movie files, but possibly also for other reasons. That's probably increasing the traffic too since your browser has to constantly ask for the next chunk.

Well at least I'm not the only one
I've been trying to find videos on other sites like Dailymotion or Vimeo (which I love), but none of them can match the sheer content that YouTube has. I wonder if its new interface has something to do with it

IWTL how to write better short stories (self.IWantToLearn)
submitted 2 years ago by Miller0700
Here's some of my biggest problems:
My stories lack detail. I suck at giving detailed characters or locations. I guess I don't have the vocabulary or even the know how to make a good descriptive piece.
They lack extensive vocabulary. I'm stuck in a rigid place where I end up using the same words over to explain the story.
They lack pace. I end up racing through my story. Probably refers back to number 1.
They lack proper punctuation. It ends up messing up the dialogue and confusing the reader at times.
But coming from this you might think I shouldn't be a writer at all. Totally not the case.
Here's one of my stories: http://storywrite.com/story/10283519-Total_Existence_Failure-by-Derchin
What do you think? Any suggestions are welcomed.
[–]MefiezVousLecteur 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (3 children)
Reading your story, I have some thoughts:
You cram in way too much description of the wrong things in what appears to be an attempt to solve the problem of lacking detail. "So she stared at the chrome enclosed clock with the numbers in bright blue." is a bunch of detail about something nobody cares about; it's not going to affect the outcome of the story that the numbers were blue instead of red.
Other stuff makes no sense: she's laying in bed, hoping to sleep, but she felt in her pocket for cigarettes? Wouldn't they get smushed if she fell asleep and rolled over? And then she "hops" out of bed, which is exactly opposite the feeling I was getting of her being tired and dejected. She just slammed the chrome alarm clock with blue numbers, the act of someone annoyed - hopping out of bed is something done by perky people. She hasn't slept, she wanted but couldn't find a smoke, and she just smacked her alarm clock: that is not a description of a perky person. Then she gets to the bathroom and it's a mess because she's too tired to clean it up, so back to tired and not perky. (Also, really, used underwear in the sink? TMI, dude. I don't need to know about her used underwear.)
Your descriptions of your protagonist are just sentences you put together in hopes of making some sense - you didn't imagine her, try to understand what her day was like and what she's been doing, and then describe it. Make her real, and then describe what you see. Don't just string descriptions together and use your thesaurus to replace words without thinking about how those words feel.
This woman hasn't slept in days, she's annoyed about the skyscrapers out the window, she can't find a smoke, and she smacked a blaring alarm clock. She is not going to hop out of bed all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. She's going to sigh, and sit up, and stare unseeing at the floor.
Don't write about your characters until you know how much change they have in their pockets.
[–]Miller0700[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (2 children)
You and I are at a loss.
While there are nuggets of truth in your review (like detail in awkward places,) I feel as though you are deliberately overlooking parts of the story in the review. Please prove me wrong here:
she's laying in bed, hoping to sleep, but she felt in her pocket for cigarettes? Wouldn't they get smushed if she fell asleep and rolled over?
No, because that's the point: She can't sleep and her tossing and turning as a result of that wouldn't happen.
And then she "hops" out of bed, which is exactly opposite the feeling I was getting of her being tired and dejected.
She hops out of bed because she has to get ready go to work. I was trying to convey a sense of routine; her ongoing insomnia resulted in her hindsight of the events around her: When the alarm would go off exactly, when to get up accordingly and to never remove her uniform. She essentially became just another cog in the machine.
She hasn't slept, she wanted but couldn't find a smoke, and she just smacked her alarm clock: that is not a description of a perky person.
I wasn't trying to define a perky person (above).
And everything beyond that can be summed up from there.
Make her real, and then describe what you see.
People usually give me one sentence answers without much to go by.
But thanks for the review anyway.
[–]MefiezVousLecteur 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm trying to make the point that your use of language is inconsistent, at least as it hits me: "hops out of bed" is when you're in a good mood, or you're well rested, or something. When you've been laying in bed all night in your clothes, without sleeping, you're not likely to be chipper. You'll "drag yourself out of bed," not "hop." Bunnies hop. She doesn't seem to be in a bunny mood.
[–]ash_her 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Ahh! No! The first thing I learned as a writing student was not to argue back or "defend" your writing against a legitimate critique, which is what Mefiez gave. Read through it slowly. Go back an try to see his points objectively, as a foreign reader, not the writer of the piece. Otherwise asking for review/critique is a waste of everyone's time.
For example, you said people only offer one sentence of advice, re: making your protagonist real. But Mefiez offered 2 paragraphs explaining what he meant and even giving some advice. See: Your descriptions of your protagonist are just sentences you put together in hopes of making some sense - you didn't imagine her, try to understand what her day was like and what she's been doing, and then describe it. Make her real, and then describe what you see. Don't just string descriptions together and use your thesaurus to replace words without thinking about how those words feel.
It's really important to know your character inside and out before you set to describing them. Make a list, kind of like those stupid myspace surveys people used to do? Habits, job, favorite drink, favorite food, does she like movies, does she read, does she like animals?
These may seem inconsequential but things like that can reveal a lot about a character even if they're not directly used in the story. And they help you, the most important player here, to know her, so you can explain her to the reader in a cohesive and revealing way.
I have so much more advice and will be back later, when I'm not mobile and can read your story and give you more specific advice.
As for punctuation, if it's really a problem, do grammar exercises. If you're serious about writing, it won't feel like a waste of time. Punctuation helps with clarity and meaning and if you can't use it properly and effectively, then you're right--you shouldn't be writing. Maybe harsh, but it's so important, and editors don't have time for that stuff.
[–]Momojo 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
The good news is that all the problems you list are things that can be learned with work and rewrites. Try to find a good writing class, one where you share your stories with other people to be critiqued and you critique theirs in turn.
I'd also recommend you read "Writing Fiction: A Guide To Narrative Craft" by Janet Burroway.

something like this maybe?
I was wondering if anyone has used a strong windshield suction mount for a Tablet PC. I have a stylistic 3400 which is about 3 lbs. I was wondering if there is a Windshield suction mount that can support 3 lbs. If not, is there a simple single arm flexible mount for a tablet PC. When I mean flexible arm mount, I mean one of these mounts that can be bent into any shape.. I was hoping to mount one end of the flexible mount under the passenger seat.. It would be helpful If anyone can suggest a compact simple to install automotive mount for a 3 LB tablet.
something like this maybe?
Don't do it! Check out my pics and some of my posts on my install. Its better to just buy the mini-dock and create your own mounting bracket that you attach somewhere on the center dash section. There's always somewhere to wedge or bolt up a bracket, just takes some imagination sometimes. Some of my previous posts on the subject highlight the advantages of doing it this way.

Dubin-Johnson syndrome
Dubin-Johnson syndrome (DJS) is a benign, inherited liver disorder characterized clinically by chronic, predominantly conjugated, hyperbilirubinemia and histopathologically by black-brown pigment deposition in parenchymal liver cells.
Prevalence in the general population is unknown. DJS affects individuals of all ethnic origins but is most common among Iranian or Moroccan Jews, in which, due to founder mutations, it has been reported to occur in up to 1/1,300 individuals.
Patients usually present during adolescence or young adulthood with mild to moderate, recurrent jaundice without pruritus, often triggered by intercurrent illness, pregnancy, oral contraceptives or drugs. Abdominal pain and fatigue are sometimes observed during outbreaks and hepatosplenomegaly may be present in rare cases. Total serum bilirubin (mainly in the conjugated form: the proportion of conjugated to total serum bilirubin is 50-80%) is elevated, usually between 2 and 5 mg/dl (very rarely up to 20 mg/dl). Liver enzyme activities (i.e. aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase), total bile acid concentration, albumin level and prothrombin time are normal. An association with clotting factor VII deficiency (see this term) can be observed, especially in Iranian and Moroccan Jews. Histological studies reveal a typical black-brown granular pigment deposition in the cytosol of hepatocytes, mostly in the centrilobular area, without other histological abnormalities.
DJS is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner and is caused by homozygous mutations in the ABCC2 gene. ABCC2 encodes an ATP-dependent apical membrane transporter that mediates the efflux of bilirubin-glucuronides and other conjugated organic anions from the hepatocyte into bile.
Diagnosis should be suspected in patients exhibiting isolated conjugated hyperbilirubinemia (i.e. without changes in liver enzyme activities) in the absence of any septic condition, ultrasound anomaly of the liver or potentially interfering drug. In this context, the characteristic urinary coproporphyrin excretion pattern (i.e. an elevated proportion of coproporphyrin I (over 80%) with a normal total coproporphyrin level) is usually diagnostic for DJS. 99mTc-HIDA cholescintigraphy, showing delayed or non-visualization of the gallbladder and bile ducts and prolonged visualization of the liver may also be useful. Definitive diagnosis can be obtained through molecular analysis of the ABCC2 gene. Although histological studies also allow a definitive diagnosis, liver biopsy is not systematically performed considering the invasive nature of the procedure together with the benign prognosis of the disease.
The main differential diagnosis is another form of mainly conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, Rotor syndrome (RT; see this term).
There is no curative treatment for DJS, even though short-term administration of phenobarbital has been reported to reduce serum bilirubin level in some cases.
DJS is a benign disorder and the prognosis for patients is good, highlighting the need for correct diagnosis to avoid unnecessary diagnostic procedures, treatment and follow-up. Progression to liver failure, cirrhosis or hepatic fibrosis is not observed.

Contingency Theory & the Global Environment
Discuss the role of contingency planning as a corrective measure in global business
Solution Summary
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the many forms of contingency theory in terms of organizational analysis or the many aspects of organizational leadership. Four important ideas of contingency theory are discussed, including the notion that there is no universal or best way to manage an organization; the design of the organization must fit with the external environment; as well as several others. In essence, contingency theory implies that a specific fit is necessary between the internal and external aspects of an organization, and thus, on a global level, such a fit, can be perceived as a corrective measure when other systems fail to fit the external environment.

1. Scope
1.1 This practice covers a cleaning and descaling procedure useful to producers, users, and fabricators of zirconium and zirconium alloys for the removal of ordinary shop soils, oxides, and scales resulting from heat treatment operations and foreign substances present as surface contaminants.
1.2 It is not intended that these procedures become mandatory for removal of any of the indicated soils but rather serve as a guide when zirconium and zirconium alloys are being processed in the wrought, cast, or fabricated form.
1.3 It is the intent that these soils be removed prior to chemical milling, joining, plating, fabrication, and in any situation where foreign substances interfere with the corrosion resistance, stability, and quality of the finished product.
1.4 Unless a single unit is used, for example, solution concentrations in g/l, the values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. SI values cannot be mixed with inch-pound values. The temperatures in Notes 1 and 2 are exact equivalents because they reflect data obtained from a specific temperature.
1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Company: California Star
Bridgette Paris, Master Liam, Little Bit
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
When Bridgette Paris' cute girlfriend "Beauty" arrives at the couple's home, dominant boyfriend Master Liam is surprised to see that the girl's name suits her well. He quickly agrees when the girls suggest a little rope play instead of a night on the town.
Soon the giggling girls are bound in separate rooms, Beauty in the living room and blonde Paris in the bedroom.
Liam goes back and forth between the rooms adjusting his ropes, changing the girls' positions, and checking in to taunt them sweetly while checking on their condition. Eventually, he brings Beauty into the bedroom and ties her most provocatively to his appreciative girlfriend.
Although the box back gets Paris' identity confused with that of Little Bit, who plays Beauty, he knows exactly what to do with the goth cutie — and how to make his girlfriend and himself — exceptionally happy.

NEW YORK — Moving is never fun, but it shouldn't be a rip-off.
Yet that's exactly what I experienced last month, when I shelled out $2,000 for a job my movers had estimated at $900. I can usually argue my way out of such situations, but since the movers had all my worldly possessions locked in their truck, my leverage was nil.
When I asked John Bisney, spokesman for the American Moving & Storage Association, what I should have done differently, his first tip was that the cheapest option isn't always the best.
"It's one thing to go online and shop for the lowest price for a pizza or a lamp," Bisney said. "But when you're talking about people who you don't know coming to your house, loading everything you own onto a truck, and putting a padlock on it and driving away, maybe you want to check them out a little bit."
Bisney has a clear stake in encouraging people to spend more on moving, but it's a valuable point.

- US says Reebok toning shoes don't really
- Can you live on $9 an hour? Play the game
Wild Wall St.
Here are more tips from Bisney and other moving experts.
1. Beware of rogue operators.
- Instead of relying on a company's fancy website, see if it has a physical address and consider stopping in. If the company doesn't have any offices in your state, that isn't a red flag in itself, but Bisney recommends at least viewing the building with Google Maps in that case.
- If you're considering a company that does interstate moves, check whether it's registered as required with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, part of the U.S. Department of Transportation, at www.protectyourmove.gov.
- If your company does only in-state moves, go to AMSA's consumer site, www.moving.org , and click on "State Moving Resources" to find out what's required in your state.
- Also check www.moving.org for companies AMSA has screened and given its seal of approval, called ProMover.
2. Insist on an in-person estimate.
- If a company tells you it can give you an accurate estimate over the phone or online, be careful. That means they can always say you have more stuff than you told them about. In fact, movers covered by federal law must survey your belongings in person before giving you an estimate if they have an office within 50 miles of your home.
3. Consider signing up for a binding agreement, but still ask about extra fees.
- With a binding agreement, you'll pay what the movers estimated, whether your shipment actually ends up weighing more or less than they guessed. With a non-binding agreement, the final price for moving services isn't determined until your shipment is loaded and weighed.
- Even with a binding agreement, movers can tack on fees for moving into a dwelling on a steep hill or in a crowded city or with a lot of steps. If the movers need to bring in your stuff on a little shuttle instead of the giant truck it traveled in, that can cost $300 extra, for example. So ask.
4. Know your rights.
- Federal law bars movers from charging you more than 110 percent of the original estimate for moving services, even under a non-binding agreement. But that limit does not include fees and extras like the shuttle.
- Companies can't require full payment before final delivery, according to FMCSA, but Bisney said not to be scared off if a company asks for a down payment of 10 percent or less.
5. Consider insurance.
- You'll have to pay extra for full liability, but the movers will be on the hook for any items that get lost or damaged, as long as they packed the items and you specifically list any particularly expensive items on shipping documents. AMSA recommends listing china, antiques and anything with a value of more than $100 per pound.
- The "alternative level of liability" insurance is free, but the movers assume liability of only 60 cents per pound. So, according to AMSA, if you have a $1,000 stereo that weighs 10 pounds, your movers would be liable for only $6.
6. Don't forget your car.
- Consider shipping it instead of racking up the miles by driving it. Your mover may ship your vehicle along with your other belongings, or you can opt for a company that specializes in moving vehicles. The cost can vary widely depending on how far you're moving. It could cost at least $1,000 to move your car across the country, but that's compared with roughly $1,500 in mileage and gas at current rates, plus your food and lodging along the way.

This past weekend, the student life at MIT was booming, with several events to cap off another great semester at MIT. Amongst the great events were the MIT Dance Troupe shows and the Senior Ball. The MIT Dance Troupe put on another great set of shows, performing on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday! With a packed show of over 20 dances and over 100 performers, the Dance Troupe wowed audiences on all four nights. After practicing all semester and going through several dress rehearsals, DT put on a show that several called the best Dance Troupe show ever. With more than 10 senior choreographers, Dance Troupe will definitely miss the Class of 2010. Speaking of the Class of '10, they had their Senior Ball "eXcess" this Saturday. The Ball, which was held at the Boston Sheraton, was the last defining moment for the seniors before they graduate on June 4. Jessica Ho, a senior, says the Ball was, "a great way for me to have fun with my class before I have to leave MIT and step into the real world." With summer just around the corner and the 2009-2010 academic year coming to close, students at the Institute are buckling down, putting on their thinking caps, and getting ready for finals week next week.
Check out this video of one of the Dance Troupe performances, and good luck to everyone on their final exams and projects!

"Belichick has avoided those issues so far by dealing coldly with some players. He called in safety Lawyer Milloy just before the start of the 2003 season and demanded he take a pay cut.
When Milloy refused, Belichick cut him on the spot." ************************************************** ******** This kind of cold hearted discipline is a key to Belichick's success, no doubt. |

well as long as you keep winning.. you can afford to cut proven players and replace them with nobodies. his good judgement has kept him from being labeled as a heavy handed ignorant jerk.. and instead he has become the greatest mind in football.
and really its hard to base things on the salary cap. Sure we may have less cap space this year.. but depending on how the contracts were written.. we could be one of the lowest next year. it all depends on what season a particular player is in on his contract. Casserly is right though about an expansion team having more troubles with that kind of stuff. Once some of the older more expensive players leave us, and are replaced by our own draft picks and such.. we will be in a much better situation. |

No Excuses Here
"Yet even if Belichick never wins another championship, every fan in every other NFL city can hold his own team to a higher standard because of him. He has made it look easy."
There are no excuses with Belichick, as every team faces the same obstacles during the season. The difference is that 'B' does not lower his standards or expectations like other Coaches do. You won't here 'B' say he didn't blitz because it would have meant single coverage, and his players couldn't have made the coverage. Of course, the purpose of the blitz is either to sack the QB or pressure him into a poor decision which would negate the risk of single coverage. Capers? He just doesn't blitz. |

sure does sound like fun to play for the guy, think they'll win another championship ? If so than i recomend that capers start doing the same with the texans !

Let me start off by saying Howdy Yall.
Second let me get to my point: Your a fool if you say this young franchise has failed because they are not modeling the New England Patriots. That is kind of what this article hints at. There is nobody in the NFL that models after the New England Patriots, and there will never be. What the New England Patriots have is special. It is in there heart and in there mind. It starts with Scot Pioli. When he goes out and gets FA's, he is not looking at stats or if this guy is a big name player. He goes out and gets a guy that wants to prove himself with a team and who wants to put everything and give everything in to win a championship. Quote:
There system also revolves around not letting one player be the spot light. By this I mean in there offense, they don't rely on one player. Sure they rely on Tom Brady, but in there receiving core, you can argue on day long who is there #1 receive. In there defense they allow everyone to make plays, Burschi, Vrabel, Colvin, McGinnest, all of those guys make plays on a regular basis. At the end of the day they don't blame one person saying "Oh well this guy didn't step up". This organization is run prefectly. They have the right guys making personal and draft decesions, right guys coaching, the right guys running the plays, its a team effort in all areas. There will be no one that can do it as well as the Patriots. But, there luck might be running out................

They had the NE linebacker on 610 one day last week and he said they have success because they believe in the system...if they don't they don't hang around long and they are unbelievably well coached. He said they will go into a defensive alignment that they haven't been in for months if the coach wants to change. He said Belichick is unbelievably smart with defensive schemes. They adjust. They believe. They don't keep guys around that don't want to be part of the team. It's team above everything with that group.

Roster Turnover
Compare the Pats starters from Sunday's game to their roster from three seasons ago when they beat the Rams in SB XXXVI.
3/5 of the o-line is different (Light and Andruzzi are the only ones still there). Different TEs (Graham and Fauria vs. Wiggins and Rutledge) Completely different backfield (Antowain Smith and Marc Edwards gone - Faulk remains). Added Givens and Branch at WR (Troy Brown and Patten remain) Same QB On the defense, they have a totally different secondary; now Gay, Samuel, Wilson, Harrison vs. then Law (hurt in 04), O. Smith, Milloy, and T. Jones. Back then, they were playing 4-3 and on the DL they had Hamilton, Mitchell, Seymour, and Pleasant. Now they have Seymour, Wilfork, and Green. Their strength (LBs) remained the same (Vrabel, Bruschi, Phifer, McGinest). They have had a lot of turnover since the 2001 season (except for QB and LB) and if anything they've gotten better.

IMO the majority of the Pats success is due to the coaching, play calling, and schemes. The Pats are not a team loaded with Pro Bowl talent although they have some standout players on both sides of the ball. Overall their team is built with a lot of solid players and depth, not just a few Pro Bowlers surrounded by a team. And I am really wanting to see how they do next season with Crennell and Weiss gone, because I heard today on ESPN that the biggest free agent they will have to sign this offseason is Adam Viniateri so the majority of the players should return next season.

over a long period of time to be effective. We have another example of this with the Chargers, who threw a group together during the offseason that was effective enough to get the Bolts into the playoffs. |

Wouldn't every team like to have the genius mind of Belichick!
It will be interesting to see what happens when Brady asks for more money. He needs Belichick as much as Belichick needs him. Although with three rings, what does he want for more now .. another ring or fatter paycheck. |

Until someone else shows up to prove him wrong, Bellichek is the man. He and Pioli have built a wonderful organization. It can be said that the Patriots whole is better than the sum of the parts. They have the BEST head coach. They had the BEST coordinators till Weise and Crennel got head coaching positions. Yes, time will tell, but I'll bet you right now the Patriots are right in the thick of things for the Championship next year.
I would hope that the Texans could emulate the Patriots, but I also know that each team has to be built in its own way. I am not at all sure, anymore, that Dom Capers is the answer for our ultimate SB head coach. He is just too darn conservatgive for my liking. He also doesn't seem to be able to plug in the right coach, or player, for the right position. It may just be the youth of this team, but I am fast beginning to doubt Mr. Capers. Yes, we have shown steady improvement in our won loss record. But the closer we get to 8-8 and beyond, the harder it becomes. Heres hoping I'm wrong.

"I would recommend this rental to anyone"
I was attending a conference in Tampa and wanted a place that I could relax and unwind after the conference each day. I found a great two story condo that had amazing views with all the adenities in walking distance. A white sand beach, marina with Manatee hanging out in the sun, and a restaurant with the perfect sunsets. The place was clean, updated, and had everything you needed to stay. I have staid at a number of vacation rentals, and I would recommend this rental to anyone, definitely with the drive.
Townhouse in Little Harbor, 5 STAR Rating!
We just stayed at the Townhouse listed above and would like to say that it was a beautiful place to stay. It is decorated beautifully and is very clean. The view from the porch and the main bedroom is lovely. The kitchen is well stocked (if you like to cook on vacation) complete with pots, pans and crock pot, wine bottle corkscrew and even a panini press. We were very happy with the townhouse and with how the owner and agent treated us. We definitely recommend this place.

Wonderful Place to Stay!
We stayed at this beautiful condo while visiting family nearby. What a delightful alternative to staying in a chain hotel! The condo was spotlessly clean and well maintained. Everything felt brand new and was so nicely decorated! The pictures shown don't really do this condo justice!
The owner was great to work with....very prompt with returning emails/phone calls and very friendly and helpful with all of my questions.
The resort itself has so much to offer! I can't wait to go back and visit again!

Berhe (No. 20 in the photo) led the Aztecs in tackles last season with 87 and it helped him take home second-team all-MWC honors. At 5-foot-10, he's got the right height, but at 190 pounds, most teams will probably want to see him add a little more bulk to go with his ability to get to the ball.

just from my past experiences here are a things to look for : broken nut----bolt moves when frame lifts, broken shock mount, stiff shock(raise er' up and let the shock drop and give er' a shot of penetrating fluid), or could even be loose shackle bolt (you will only find the clunk underneath if you raise the rear end and start moving things around or beating with a rubber mallet.) a Tech at a garage will probably find it, but at a cost !!!!---just some suggestions !!!!! ---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ---------- ---forgot to mention to check to see if the rubber muffler hanger has broke or dislodged---this is a very easy and in-expensive repair

5.3 Silver...You never do indicate if this clunk is in the front or the rear. You only say it is on the right side. It would help to narrow this down if you could tell us f or r, as there are many different issues between the front & the rear suspension. Boy that is one sweet looking truck!!!!:great:
your (STEPHAN) right sorry, the mysterious clunking noise comes from the front right side by the wheel or underneath in that area. . thanks i appreciate the help. .
OK.. well there are many more things in the front to check for, than there are in the back. Check the things that Hobie, & Heartbeat talked about, & if it is not one of those then you must start looking around. Grab ahold of things & try and shake them. It could be something as simple as a sway bar bracket, or as difficult as a wound up suspension component. Many times they can be found just by looking & many more times by checking their mounting & shaking them to see if they are secure or not. If you still don't find anything, then jack it up & grab the tire by the top & bottom & see if there is any play. Do the same by grabbing the sides of the tire & see if it makes any noise. You may even be able to duplicate the clunk when you jack it up. Watch the suspension as you jack it up & as you let it down. You may be able to see what is not right. If it doesn't make the noise when you jack it under the suspension, then try jacking it up with the frame. This will allow the rf suspension to drop fully, & this may produce the clunk. When you do find it you may need a mechanic to fix it but most clunks & such can be identified by the owners with just a little detective work. You might also have someone drive it over a speed bump while you stand outside & see exactly where it is comeing from. If you try all these things & don't find it, then it is time to take it to a mechanic.
Thanks for Your input guys, the problem is solved, it was the top shock hanger the bushing was pretty much shot, all i did was install new ones and i was done!! THANKS ALOT !
Check the bushings that mount the torsion bar cross member. I had them go & they made tons of noise till I replaced them.
