In 1987, Jane and Robert Meyerhoff announced their pledge to donate their art collection to the National Gallery of Art, including many of the works currently on view in the de Young's special exhibition Modernism from National Gallery of Art. But before they were given to the nation, these works first made up a personal collection that the couple had built and lived with for many years.
FAMSF Blog
The de Young brings you the world—in our galleries you might see a ceremonial knife from Mexico made of obsidian and turquoise, or a coffin from Ghana carved in the shape of a cocoa pod. At the 4th annual Fair Trade Bazaar at the de Young on Friday, July 25 and Saturday, July 26, you'll have the opportunity to purchase goods made by artisans from all over the globe—from the windswept deserts of Mauritania to the craggy peaks of the Andes.
Tonight, Friday Nights at the de Young celebrates the history of the dandy from Oscar Wilde to Jean Paul Gaultier. Whereas Oscar Wilde's aesthetic style was derided as too feminine, Jean Paul Gaultier embraces gender bending, dressing men in skirts and women in exquisitely tailored suits. In this way, Gaultier's designs approach a new androgyny and subvert established fashion codes. The designer toys with standard concepts of the masculine and feminine throughout the special exhibition The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk , but one exhibit in particular literally speaks to this issue. He is the Man in the Mirror.
See tomorrow's art start tonight at the 2012 New Generations: Student Showcase. This year's theme is a call to action–think of it as a one-word manifesto: Matter!
In this installment of our continuing blog series examining key elements of the Aesthetic Movement through the lens of John Stanhope's masterwork Love and the Maiden (typically on view in gallery 18 at the Legion of Honor and currently on view in The Cult of Beauty: The Victorian Avant-Garde, 1860–1900), curatorial assistant of European art Melissa Buron takes a closer look at color.
FRAME|WORK is a weekly blog series that highlights an artwork in the Museums' permanent collections. This week, we feature a painting by Johnny Warangkula Tjupurrula, a member of the Papunya Tula artist collective. Children's story (water dreaming for two children) is currently on loan to Australia's National Gallery of Victoria.

Many people taking a foreign language for the first time become confused when the textbook begins discussing nouns and verbs, adjectives and adverbs, and things like subject and object.
So, to try to limit any confusion you might have, here is a very short outline of the basics of grammar:
DefinitionsNoun: a person, a place, or a thing. Examples: dog, Iowa, lawyer, chair, field.
Verb: expresses an action, an occurance, or a mode of being. Examples: run, kill, am, are, is
Adjective: modifies a noun. Example: the word ugly is an adjective in the phrase "an ugly duckling", where duckling is a noun and it is being modified by the word ugly.
Adverb: modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. Example: the word slowly in the phrase "he works slowly", where works is a verb and it is being modified by the word slowly.
Subject: the actor in a sentence. Example: "The dog threw the bone to the boy", where dog is the primary actor.
Direct Object: the noun that is being acted upon directly by the subject. Example: "The dog threw the bone to the boy", where bone is the direct object, that is, the thing being acted upon directly.
Indirect Object: the noun that is being acted upon indirectly by the subject. Example: "The dog threw the bone to the boy", where boy is the thing being acted upon indirectly.
A summary to illustrate:
The hungry dog threw the ugly bone hard to the boy.Dog is the subject. Threw is the verb. Bone is the direct object, and boy is the indirect object.
Hungry and ugly are adjectives.
Hard is an adverb.
Dog, bone, and boy are nouns.
Threw is the verb.
Introduction to Gender
English is unusual among the world's languages in being mostly gender neutral. That is, only animate beings are thought of as either masculine or feminine. Most English nouns are neuter, and our verbal system does not distinguish between masculine or feminine subjects.
Hebrew, on the other hand, is not gender neutral at all. All nouns in Hebrew are either masculine or feminine and there is no neuter at all. Make a note of that.
Additionally, the verbal system distinguishes between the masculine and feminine gender of the subjects in a sentence, as we will discover in later lessons. For the moment, you only need to think about the fact that all nouns, animate or not, are classified as either masculine or feminine.
Introduction to the Conjuction
The conjunction and is usually expressed in Hebrew with a vav w: prefixed to the word which follows it in the sentence. The conjunction in Hebrew is never alone. It is always attached to the word that comes after it.
Examples: (remember to read right to left)
sw%sw: = sw%s + w:Introduction to the Definite Articleand a horse
#$y)iw: = #$y)i + w:
and a man
The definite article in English is the. In order to express this concept in Hebrew, a he (pronounced "hay") with a patah ha is prefixed to any noun we want to make definite. The ha is then followed by a dagesh (also called a strong dagesh; it is just a dot) which is placed in the first letter of the word.
Examples: (remember to read right to left)
hlfy:la@ha = hlfy:la + hathe + night = the night
lwOq@ha = lwOq + hathe + voice = the voice
Please read pages 40-43 in Biblical Hebrew Step-by-Step.

Come on Greg...I've been fighting grade creep for some time but .10-?? Be serious. If your new pal was a budding 10 climber how well do you think they would do on this route. Granted, it's well protected but the moves up the slab are pretty technical. Maybe I should do it again, but I too was pretty thankful when I was able to just clip it up and go. Screeching down that slab didn't look to enticing. |

Greetings! I'm just looking at these changes and I'm delighted to finally see them in. However, I have one small problem: the old version allowed to program EXTCLK1 and the LCD controller clock via 'mode_toyclksrc' in the panel configuration database[1], but this has been removed (also the 'mode_backlight' member, btw). FYI, on the TTP1100[2], the pixelclock for some displays types is created via EXTCLK1 which doesn't work anymore, which is why I'm asking. Am I on the wrong way or should I just reimplement it and send a patch? Uli [1] I have a few nits on that, too: IMHO it could be made constant and marked as '__initdata' so it is discarded after initialization. [2] Based on DB1100. Are there any pointers on how to port to a new board, btw? |

Great product, small size
I was eyeing this for a while as the perfect minibag to keep my camera in when I bring it in a backpack etc. Eventually I bought the Local Identity (S) backpack and it came with the small Haven. It fits nicely in the bottom of my bag but it is a bit small for my use -- it only fits one body with a lens attached (however with a small lens like a 50, I can stick another short-medium lens in the bag as well (on top or on the bottom usually). It's good though to tote around and I certainly do feel like it's padded enough to protect my camera. The small pouches in the front are good as well for cords, lens and body caps, batteries etc. I would definitely recommend it but if you're looking to fit in an extra lens in it with the body, I'd upgrade to the Haven (M) or (L) because they can be properly divided -- I had to take my dividers out to fit my body.

Good idea, but...
I recently bought this bag for my Olympus OM-D E-M5. The quality of the materials and workmanship is very good. However, it is just a bit tight for my camera, so if you are thinking about getting the bag for a similar camera, I would suggest getting a medium.
My main problem with the bag is the padding. Before buying the bag I read many reviews on the internet, and everybody praised the good padding of the bag. I have to disagree with those reviews. The front (where the Crumpler logo is located) and back padding of the bag is made of sponge - the same kind that you would use in a bath. And it is not particularly thick. So I find it really hard to imagine that the bag would protect the camera from a knock (even if it is inside another bag). All that the padding will do is muffle the sound of the knock.
I also wrote a mail to Crumpler, inquiring about whether they believe the padding of the bag is sufficient. They ignored me. Nuff said.
Also note that the opening of the bag cannot not close completely.

MRSA Infection (cont.) IN THIS ARTICLE
MRSA Infection Risk FactorsRisk factors for getting MRSA include playing contact sports, sharing towels or other personal items, having any condition that suppresses immune system function (for example, HIV, cancer, or chemotherapy), unsanitary or crowded living conditions (dormitories or military barracks), being a health care worker, and young or old age. Almost anything that leads to breaks in the skin (for example, scratches, abrasions, or punctures) will increase infection risk. MRSA carriers (people colonized by MRSA bacteria but who are not symptomatic) can pass the bacteria without knowing it. Hospitalized patients are at risk of having health care workers accidently transfer MRSA between patients. Unfortunately, hospitalized patients usually have sites (for example, IV lines, surgical incision sites) that are easily contaminated with MRSA. Consequently, direct contact with MRSA organisms on surfaces or on infected people are the highest risk factors for getting MRSA infections. Medically Reviewed by a Doctor on 11/5/2014

Clues in H7N9 Influenza Genetic Sequences
Researchers quickly evaluated the genetic sequences of the novel H7N9 avian influenza virus thats caused illness and death in China in recent weeks. The analysis provides clues to the viruss origin, transmissibility and potential sensitivity to existing treatments.
Influenza, or flu, claims thousands of lives nationwide each year. Health experts have been particularly concerned about the threat posed by avian flu viruses. Influenza viruses constantly change, or mutate. Flu pandemics can arise when novel avian strains acquire 2 abilities—to infect humans and to spread easily between people. That's why health experts keep a close watch on novel viruses.
On March 31, 2013, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Chinese CDC) reported the first cases associated with the H7N9 influenza virus. As of April 21, 2013, 104 human infections had been confirmed, with 21 deaths. To date, the outbreak has been limited to eastern China, and there's been no evidence of transmission between people.
A team of researchers set out to analyze the novel virus. They were led by Dr. Masato Tashiro of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases in Japan and Dr. Yoshihiro Kawaoka of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the University of Tokyo. The team studied the genetic sequences of viruses isolated from 4 of the earliest fatal cases. Sequences were provided by the Chinese CDC. The analysis was funded by NIH's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and Japanese organizations. Results appeared on April 11, 2013, in Eurosurveillance.
Influenza virus strains are classified and named based on the viral surface proteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). The combination of H7 HA and N9 NA has previously been seen only in birds. The scientists concluded that the novel strain likely got its surface protein genes from the H7N3 and H11N9 avian influenza strains. Other genes came from H9N2 influenza viruses recently circulating in poultry in China.
While H7N9 causes mild disease in birds, the analysis revealed mutations that may allow it to more efficiently cause disease in mammals. The HA sequences have mutations that have been shown to improve the virus's ability to bind to human cells. The sequences also contain mutations associated with improved virus reproduction within human cells and with more severe disease in mammals.
The researchers found that the novel H7N9 viruses are likely to be treatable using NA inhibitors, a class of anti-influenza drugs that includes oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza). However, the novel strain won't likely be treatable with ion channel inhibitors, another major class of anti-influenza drugs.
"The H7N9 influenza virus is a new concern that the public health and scientific communities will continue to track closely, including watching for any genetic mutations that might enable the virus to become transmissible from person to person or to cause more severe disease," says NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci. "Having rapid access to the viral genetic information is essential to understanding how the virus is evolving and ultimately to developing a candidate vaccine, if warranted."

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Fair enough. I think with the system set up as it is and the skating as it was, silver was deserving for D/W.
It was a big advantage for the younger couples who have grown up with the new system. The likes of Del/Sch, Fae/Sca, Bel/Ago & Dom/Sha had to adapt from the perfect 6 scoring system to the current one. Davis/White played the system well.
V/M and D/W have to thank all the the injuries that plagued all the other competitors and some unexpected falls. With healthy Shabs at worlds in Goteburg in 2008 (which they would have most likely won had they been able to compete), and without B/A's fall in the CD, V/M and D/W would have been nowhere near the podium. With healthy Shabs and D/S, I think V/M and D/W would have not been on the podium in Vancouver either, no matter how good are Marina and Igor in making up points...under normal circumstance that was simply not their moment, yet! I know "ifs" don't count but that's the scenario I would envision with the above "ifs" BTW, sorry for jumping the wagon so late
Regarding Domnina/Shabalin programs, there was a school of thought that Linichuk, being no one's fool, gave them the rather outlandish OD and controversial (in terms of lifting via costume parts, etc.) FD to deflect attention from Shabalin's inability, due to deteriorated knees, to execute certain maneuvers. Domnina/Shabalin were far the best in the Tango but simply could not keep pace with the top two teams' technical elements.
.... well, with a healthy DomShabs and DelShoes, there's still one podium spot open. But then it goes around and around. If DomShabs were healthy, DelSchoes don't become world champions, right? And V/M don't miss half of the 08/09 season and likely remain challengers for the podium. Given DelSchoes fluke mistakes that kept them off the podium in the past, and the fact that V/M were actually coming on quite strongly in the 07/08 season, I think V/M stick around and podium.
Both the Eurosport & BBC commentators said that (the compulsory dance was going to be the best for D/S then they would find it more difficult). But I was hoping they were wrong. I did enjoy their OD & free dance though & watch it reguarly. I just can't watch the marks at the end-they look so sad.
Domnina & Shabalin would not have won the 2009 Worlds had Delobel & Schoenfelder competed. That is even more obvious than saying vice versa for the 2008 Worlds. Funny how the fans of Domnina & Shabalin like to ignore this in their overall summary of things though. It is also crazy to say Virtue & Moir would not have been on the podium in Vancouver even had everything gone the best for both those teams. For Davis & White it is quite plausible to suggest, but not for Virtue & Moir. At worst they would still easily beat Davis & White and Belbin & Agosto (who were continually losing support and momentum despite improving) in Vancouver, thus being guaranteed a medal. Personally I think it would have been very hard for anyone to beat them in Vancouver regardless. They were too good there, were on home ice,, and they were better technically there than either of the D&S teams had ever been in their careers, while also being strong artistically.
After the Europeans it is comical you believed Domnina & Shabalin were still the gold favorites. Need you be reminded they lost both the OD and FD to Faiella & Scali there, and most considered their victory there a gift by an inflated CD score. Talk of a NA sweep became very prominent after that event. At the Olympics F&S again probably deserved to beat Domnina & Shabalin overall, if they were judged properly Domnina & Shabalin would have finished in 5th place. Delobel & Schoenfelder had not competed in 14 months and barely trained. They were never going to be ready to be contenders of any kind in Vancouver. 6th or 7th was right for them at the Olympics, they only stayed ahead of Pechalat & Bourzat based on seniority most likely. Davis & White and Virtue & Moir had been dominating the season and far outscoring anyone else be it Belbin & Agosto all season, or Domnina & Shabalin at Europeans. It was always clear they were the likely gold and silver winners in Vancouver.
Many were predicting that Russia equals Gold and no matter domshabs would win at the Olympics because only twice did no Russian/Soviet couple win. They were not thinking of quality of dance but rather precendent. When Tango Romantica was first declared the CD dance that was like "FIX IS IN!!!" Then the Russians on the judging panel "FIX IS IN!!!" cried some press people and others on forums. Hate to post that it was the more figure skating every four years people that really thought Domshabs would stand a chance to win. Can't even post links to people saying Domshabs would do well at the Olympics because they would be trained more and the Russia stumbled and Euro losses in FD and OD wouldn't matter because they would do well because I can't think of any writing like that! It was all about their costumes of OD and FD being controversial and being ice dance Russia equals win.
Well many Aboriginal Australians would care to disagree. If the dance was meant to be a representation of Australian Aboriginal dancing, they were so off the mark it wasn't funny and ended up being incredibly disrespectful. The Australian dance team also did an Aboriginal FD but they did their research and also consulted with Aboriginal people to make sure they were doing the right things. Here is their OD from 2008 which they then did again for the 2009-2010 season. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCUKYUD3RiM&feature=g-upl&context=G28e0c48AUAAAAAAAEAA
No you were actually condoning something that many found offensive and was totally lacking in cultural research and sensitivity.
What is it with you?. I have my opinion & you have yours. I'm not condoning anything I just said I did not find it offensive. If you do that's your problem not mine. Why don't you take it up with Domnina & Shabolin if it offends you so much?.
Of course. But like I said, I'm mixed race & have had far worse things said to me than this programe could ever do. It's been two years since Vancouver & there were people who stood up for D/S. The IOC or ISU should have stepped in & done something if they thought that the programe was too offensive. I agree that at the Europeans that year they went too far with the costumes & was amazed that nothing was said before hand. But in the world & times we live in I'm not going to get angry over an ice dance programe that will never be skated to again.

This area of interest began whilst I was first playing Resident Evil 5 in 2009. As I played it, I was struck with the number of plot similarities between it and Sir. H. Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines--one of my favorite novels. Haggard epitomizes one of the most popular late 19th century British literary genres--the Adventure Story for Boys--and many of its characteristics are found in Resident Evil 5 (and even Resident Evil 4): travel to a distant land, horrific events, exotic women, and treasure of some kind, all found on the route to "manhood". But Resident Evil 5 and King Solomon's Mines share more than similar plots; at one point or another, both faced accusations of racism. I've written on this before, both online and for a conference, so I don't want to turn this into an academic presentation or a class lecture (if interested, here's a link to the Flash presentation on the topic that I made for my literature class).

Just ordered the Hormone Regulation Kit. Can't wait to start! 2 questions though...
Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and and after some research and reading the available logs, I ordered the Hormone Regulation Kit this morning. I'm really excited to see how it works for me, hoping for good strength gains and to gain 10lbs.
Should I continue to take Creatine the whole cycle, and I love my PWO, can I still take that without inflating my blood pressure too much?Last edited by deputyjason; 05-20-2011 at 03:24 PM. Reason: I'm an idiot

Brentwood, Tennessee Firefighters Stop Rapidly Extending House Fire
At 11:00 on September 24, 2002, the Brentwood, Tennessee Fire Department responded to a report of smoke in the area.
Before arrival, multiple calls were received of a house fire.
All four stations responded. Upon arrival, Engine 1 reported flames through the roof of a 7000 sq. ft. dwelling.
The fire began in a one story wing but then started rapidly extending into the 2nd floor and attic.
Command was established by Chief Kenny Lane. Ladder 1 positioned itself for a defensive attack, but interior crews stretched two handlines, and fought the fire by working into the room of origin and cutting off the extension.
No one was at home at the time of the fire.
The family dog was saved as well as double stacked automobiles in the garage that included a Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes, and a Porsche.
Despite a great stop, the loss in still estimated to be in excess of $500,000.
The fire was determined to have started in the laundry room from an undetermined cause.
Two firefighters suffered minor thermal burns.
A third, Engr. Steve Failor was transported by EMS after a collapse of a brick veneer wall while overhauling the fire.
He missed two shift due to his injuries.

The cosmic villain Thanos makes his move on Earth while the Avengers are out in space in the Marvel Comics event series "Infinity." / Marvel Comics
Fail in their latest mission, and the Avengers may find that space is their - and everyone else's - final frontier.
An expanded roster of Marvel Comics' signature superhero team heads off on a galactic journey to rally the universe in the six-issue event series Infinity, launching in August from writer Jonathan Hickman and artists Jim Cheung, Jerome Opena and Dustin Weaver.
Fans will get their first taste of what's to come on May 4 when Marvel issues a special Infinity preview on Free Comic Book Day in comic shops. The preview will look at what nefarious business the cosmic villain Thanos (the purple baddie movie fans saw last spring during the end credits of The Avengers) is planning to do to Earth, since the Avengers' departure has left the planet vulnerable.
"The universe's greatest serial killer is cut loose to do bad things to our most precious world," Hickman says.
The writer has been planting seeds for Infinity in his two series, Avengers and New Avengers, which also will act as tie-in books.
In the flagship Avengers, the "space opera" tale of Infinity teams the likes of Iron Man, Captain America and Thor with outer-space heroes Nova and the Guardians of the Galaxy on a mission to bring together shape-shifting Skrulls, warriors of the Kree, the Alien-like Brood and other intergalactic folks against a common foe.
And the Avengers will need all the help they can muster. Their new enemy, the Builders, are an ancient race of universe-building beings targeting Earth for destruction, who "can raze worlds and have basically seeded life through the galaxy," Hickman says.
Issues of New Avengers as well as Infinity focus on Thanos' secret agenda and the superheroes who are left to deal with him and his army running roughshod over Earth.
"Somebody like Daredevil, who's used to dealing with more street-level problems, has to suddenly face foes and situations that are a little bit out of his ordinary weight class," says Marvel executive editor Tom Brevoort.
Cavalry shows up in the form of the Inhumans, a society of super-beings led by the silent but extremely powerful Black Bolt, who have always straddled the line between heroes and villains since their first appearance in 1965 in Fantastic Four.
"They're not like a team of superheroes. They're a demographic - being an Inhuman is like being Cuban, like being Irish," Brevoort says. "Within that strata, there are good guys and bad guys and bystanders and guys who just want to do their job and go home and drink an Inhuman Löwenbräu and kick back."
Infinity begins a push to make them a much more important part of the Marvel Universe than they have been recently, Hickman says. "There are huge plans for the Inhumans. They're such great characters, and this will be a pretty good example of why."

Unalaska (Aleut: Nawan-Alaxsxa[1]) is an island in the Fox Islands group of the Aleutian Islands in the US state of Alaska located at 53°38′N 167°00′W / 53.633°N 167.000°W. The island has a land area of 1,051 square miles (2,720 km2). It measures 127.8 kilometres (79.4 mi) long and 55.9 kilometres (34.7 mi) wide. The city of Unalaska, Alaska, covers part of the island and all of neighboring Amaknak Island where the Port of Dutch Harbor is located. The population of the island excluding Amaknak as of the 2000 census was 1,759 residents.
Unalaska is the second-largest island in the Fox Islands group and the Aleutian Islands. The coastline of Unalaska is markedly different in appearance than other major Aleutian Islands, with innumerable inlets and peninsulas. The irregular coastline is broken by three long deep bays, Beaver Inlet, Unalaska Bay, and Makushin Bay, as well as by numerous smaller bays and coves. Unalaska's terrain is rugged and covered with mountains, and during the greater part of the year the higher elevations are covered with snow.[2]
Unalaska is the Aleut name for the island. Several theories about its origin exist; the most likely is that the name comes from a corruption of the Russian word Ounalashka from the Aleut word for near the mainland, nawan Alaskax.
The island was discovered by Vitus Bering in 1741. A Russian settlement sprang up in 1759, but four years later it was destroyed by the Aleuts, together with four merchant ships. The massacre claimed the lives of 162 Russian settlers. The survivors managed to hold their own until 1764, when they were rescued by the Russians. This event triggered bloody reprisals against the natives which cost the lives of about 5,000 Aleuts.
The 1788 expedition of Esteban José Martínez and Gonzalo López de Haro explored the coast of Alaska as far as Unalaska Island, marking the farthest west the Spanish ever explored in the region.[3]
Also in 1788, English explorer James Cook visited the island, and spells it Oonalashka in his journal.[4]
In Moscow on May 31, 1988, President Ronald Reagan mentioned the meeting of Americans and Russians on this island in the 19th century as an example of early US-Russian friendship.
On December 8, 2004, the Malaysian cargo ship Selendang Ayu ran aground off Unalaska Island, causing a large oil spill.

(Saturday, May 3, 2014) From The Sports Network Final Score: Real Salt Lake 3, Chicago 2 Bridgeview, IL (SportsNetwork.com) - Alvaro Saborio and Joao Plata struck in stoppage time for Real Salt Lake to steal a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Fire on Saturday at Toyota Park. Chicago got off to a quick start on Saturday as reigning league MVP Mike Magee opened the scoring for the hosts in the 22nd minute when he raced onto a rebound left by RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando and smashed it into the roof of the net for the early lead. The Fire doubled their lead eight minutes later when Juan Luis Anangono fired past Rimando for a shock two-goal lead at the intermission. As the clock approached the final 20 minutes it appeared Chicago would come away with its first win of the season, but the defending Western Conference champs pulled one back in the 72nd minute as Javier Morales threaded one through to Plata who beat Chicago goalkeeper Sean Johnson. The Fire held the lead into second-half stoppage time, but it all collapsed after the clock hit 90 minutes. RSL drew level when Abdoulie Mansally got free down the left wing and chipped it into the box for Saborio to tap home. Just moments later, the visitors claimed the winner on a similar play as Saborio played provider, lofting the ball to the back post for an unmarked Plata to tap home to complete his double and hand RSL the points in dramatic fashion. The result sees RSL improve to 17 points on the season and remain unbeaten through nine games, while the Fire continue to search for their first win, with two defeats and six draws through eight games. 05/03 22:45:26 ET Powered by The Sports Network. |

Morse Code Resources
Written by Jacob C. Herman
Morse Code was developed over 160 years ago by two men, Samuel F. B. Morse and Alfred Vail. Morse code transmits information telegraphically by using a sequence of long and short characters that represent letters, numbers and punctuation. It was used for telegraphs, radio communication and international communication. The code was mostly transported over telegraph lines, radio waves, and underwater cables. Morse code provided the basis for many virtual voicemail features.
Learn Morse Code
- ARRLWEB: All sorts of tips and tricks for learning code on CD, on the computer or with a partner.
- A Simple Telegraph Key: A step-by-step guide on building your own telegraph key for only a few cents!
- Adjusting Keys: Instructions with simple examples designed to help adjust straight keys, paddles and bugs.
- Modern Morse: An article that explains why and where Morse code is still used.
- Art and Skill of Radio-Telegraphy: A guide for learning, using and mastering the art of Morse Code.
- American Morse Equipment: Code products for all amateur radio operators.
- Spark Keys: An article about early wireless telegraphs sending sparks from the keys when code was sent.
- Chronology of Paddles and Keyers: A timeline of the history of code sending devices and their transformation to today.
- Morse Codes for Computer Access: A page about using Morse code for the computer to help people with physical disabilities.
Morse Code Software
- Morse Runner: Contest simulator for windows.
- Stormy Weather Software: Morse code training practice and exam software version 4.13.
- Morse Mania: Morse code tutor for Mac users.
- MRP40: Morse code decoder and sender.
Although many of the uses of Morse code have since been replaced by modern technology, International Morse code is still used today by amateur radio operators. Since 2003 Morse code proficiency has been mandated by the International Telecommunication Union as part of the amateur radio licensing process. Military ships also still use signal lams to communicate messages while maintaining radio silence. It is used today as a means of assistive technology for people with a variety of disabilities. International speed contests in code copying are also still held. A Morse copying record that was made in 1939 by Ted McElroy still stands at 75.2 WPM. While the rest of the world is busy texting and using modern live answering services Morse code is being transmitted constantly over all radio bands.

Hi all, In the last few years has anyone hunted with a South African PH named Gerry S Du Preez? Thanks, Timbo
Hi Timbo Best advice is check with PHASA , the South African professional hunters association hopefully they can help you. I did a few years ago deal with a Gerrie Du Preez who booked a client for me from the UK, the hunt went very well and in fact the same client is hunting again with me this year. Cut a long story short, there was an outstanding balance that Gerrie was supposed to pay me that I never did receive. I tried contacting this Gerrie every way possible. His email address changed, the website disappeared, I contacted PHASA they never heard of him I asked PHASA to circulate a message to all their listed members to help me find this guy , I had no luck at all making contact with this guy. Even the client who hunted with me tried from his end to no avail . Anyway fortunately the client is now a friend and will be hunting with me again . Look there is a Gerrie Du Preez listed with PHASA just not the one I was looking for, so it is possible that your guy could be legit as Du Preez is a common name. I can not remember if he had a second name as you are wanting info on a Gerrie S Du Preez. The guy I dealt with was just Gerrie Du Preez , so it is possible these 2 guys may very well not be connected. Best of luck Wayne Van Den Bergh
Hi Timbo As stated start with PHASA if the guy you are dealing with and assuming you have the spelling correct is not in their listings then I'd say look else where un less you can get some very reliable recommendations from some of his client.
I did ask PHASA, but their PH Du Preez is definately not the same guy as the one I'm asking about. Thanks for replying though.
Wayne, thanks for throwing the red flag....could be nothing....or it could be "huge problem". Enough of a coincidence to bother me!
No problem Wayne! If, as you say, this does turn into a "huge problem" - then at least we're all warned. Timbo
