This is a form of antisocial behavior and can be generally characterized as a lack of adherence to the social standards that allow members of a group to temporarily mingle close knit peaceably. Individuals with the habitual shadow farting disorders are responsible for about 75% of all the ventriloquized farts committed, though they make up only about five percent of the population. Most of those with the habitual shadow farter disorder are male. Of the females that account for a smaller portion, most are not stinky. This individual often is in a state of denial , cutting the cheese and repositioning his or her self away from the point of passing it, and often blaming another member of the group for his or hers transgressions.
Stay tuned for Dr. Phil, and the habitual shadow farter interview.

by Staff Writers Bangkok (AFP) Nov 23, 2011 Thailand's university drop-out rate is likely to shoot up after devastating floods kept schools closed for weeks and affected hundreds of thousands of students, officials said Wednesday. Thailand's worst floods in decades, which have killed more than 600 people, have also caused an estimated seven billion baht ($224 million) in damage to educational facilities, Education Minister Worawat Ua-apinyakul told AFP. "Some 2,600 educational institutes -- both public and private -- and around 700,000 people (involved in education) have been affected," he said. The floods have damaged millions of Thai homes and livelihoods and as a result are hampering students' ability to pay their fees, said Sukhum Chaleysub, who runs opinion polls at Bangkok's Suan Dusit Rajabhat university. "Because of the floods, they have told us they can't afford to pay their tuition and said they may have to drop out to help their families," he said. Sukhum said the number of students who have said they cannot afford to pay their tuition bills has shot up to between 10 and 15 percent -- more than double the usual rate of around 5 percent. The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) said late Tuesday that hundreds of schools across the capital will be closed for another week, with many in flood-hit outer suburbs likely to stay shut until mid-December. Around 15,000 flood evacuees are sheltering in the empty school buildings, which did not re-open after a month-long holiday ended early November, and these people will have to be moved before classes can resume, according to the BMA statement. Arunee Ninkaew, who cares for her 10-year-old grandson Pornpiphat Jaadbanterng in the Don Mueang district of Bangkok, said she was worried he would fall behind with his school still shuttered by the flooding. "But the school said it will open on December 6. They will finish classes at 4:00 pm instead of 3:00 pm and students will have to go to classes on Saturdays," Arunee told AFP.

A Supreme Court ruling Tuesday strips power over voting and election rules from the federal government and returns it to states such as Mississippi with discriminatory pasts.
The court, in a 5-4 ruling, effectively eliminated the federal advanced-approval power over voting laws from the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The Justice Department had used this "preclearance" power to shoot down the literacy tests, poll taxes, gerrymandering and more subtle measures that were used to inhibit minority voting.
Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann said the ruling will allow him to "start today" on ...

Top politics from the award-winning NS
by John Kampfner Published
As voters go to the polls in Scotland and Wales and for local elections in much of England, the NS will bring you the best in political coverage. Can Labour revive its fortunes or is Britain heading for a new era of party-political turbulence?
Led by our political editor, Martin Bright, our writers will provide incisive coverage of Tony Blair's last task before leaving office, and Gordon Brown's last big challenge before the battle for the succession begins in earnest.
Look out for our definitive special issue on Blair's legacy, with incisive judgements from David Hare, David Marquand, Geoff Mulgan and more. After that, all eyes will be on life under Brown.
Over the past year, the NS has led the debate with a series of exclusives that, together with our interviews and articles from top politicians, has set the agenda.
In the exciting next few months, if you want to know what's going on, who's up and who's down, you know where to turn to first.

New KDE Offers Better Semantic Search
New release comes with better semantic search and improvements to Kontact.
The KDE community has announced a major update to its desktop application set. KDE Software Compilation 4.13 includes bug fixes and many new features. KDE developers have focused on building a new infrastructure for semantic search, and the Kontact personal information manager includes several improvements.
The mail client KMail has better support for cloud storage services. (Instead of an attachment, a user can send a link to Dropbox, Box, YouSendIt, Kolab server, or another cloud storage service.) Kontact improvements include a cache to speed up most operations .
The document viewer Okular can now open multiple documents in tabs. KDE also adds a new mouse mode that displays a magnifying glass. The Kate text editor has several improvements, and a new application called Artikulate helps you pronounce words in foreign languages.
As of this writing, only the source code is available for most Linux distributions, although Arch and Gentoo users can already install the update directly. Users of other Linux distros will have to wait on binary packages, although work is already underway to integrate KDE 4.13 with package repositories and future updates.

Lion on the Loose in Gahanna? —
Residents of Gahanna, Ohio have worriedly been following reports about a lion loose in their vicinity. Police have fanned out to search for the creature, but with no luck. Now some are beginning to suspect that the lion sightings were just a prank, perhaps engineered by local college seniors. Ohio is, of course, no stranger to non-existent wild beasts on the loose. Those with a long memory might remember the Paulding County Hyena that terrorized people back in 1858. But the greatest…

Four-Eyed Kitten —
Recently a four-eared cat named Lilly has been in the news. Lilly and her four ears are quite real. They're the result of a genetic defect. By contrast, the four-eyed kitten shown in the thumbnail to the right doesn't seem real at all. The top set of eyes is exactly identical to the bottom set of eyes, indicating a cut-and-paste job. (Thanks to Alicka for the picture).

As the Times of London reports: "Declan Curry, the intrepid television hack, broke the embargo on a fascinating British Waterways study that revealed that ducks living on canals weigh, on average, about a pound more than those living on rivers. The slow-moving canal water, so the story went, provides less opportunity for the ducks to swim and as a result they piled on the pounds. Mr Curry and the BBC should…

When I read about Charlie, I figured it couldn't be true. First of all, could a parrot really live that long? Well, apparently in rare cases they can. So that part of the story might be true. But there is a lot of doubt about whether Charlie ever belonged to Churchill. Churchill's family is denying that Winston ever owned a parrot. Charlie…

The site offers many educational haggis facts, such as that the sound the haggis is most sensitive to is plaid rubbing on underpants (I never knew!). And definitely check out the Haggis Cam.

I received an email from Tammy who had an important question for me. "Is it true a turtle can breath out of his butt?" she wants to know. Dear Tammy, yes this is true. At least, I know it's true that some species of turtle, such as the Fitzroy River Turtle, can perform this amazing trick, but I wouldn't stick my neck out to say that every species of turtle can. Those turtles which can are known scientifically as 'bum-breathing turtles.'

A court-ordered study has found that electromagnetic waves beamed by Vatican Radio leave residents living near the station's antennas at a higher risk of cancer, Italian media said Wednesday.
"There has been an important, coherent and meaningful correlation between exposure to Vatican Radio's structures and the risk of leukaemia and lymphoma in children," the report said, according to the daily La Stampa.
The report also warned of "important risks" of dying of cancer for people who had resided at least 10 years within a nine-kilometre (5.5-mile) radius of the radio's giant antenna towers near Cesano, some 20 kilometres north of Rome.
The radio's director, Federico Lombardi, disputed the report, saying: "Vatican Radio is astonished to hear the news on the results of the study."
Lombardi, who is also the Vatican spokesman, added: "Vatican Radio has always observed international directives on electromagnetic emissions and since 2001 has observed more restrictive norms set by Italy to allay the concerns of the neighbouring populations."
Speaking on Vatican Radio, he said: "According to international scientific literature on the matter, the existence of a causal link like the one apparently hypothesised by the report had never been established."
A Rome judge ordered the report in 2005 as part of an investigation into a complaint filed in 2001 by Cesano residents who alleged health hazards posed by the electromagnetic waves.
Vatican Radio's then-president Roberto Tucci and director Pasquale Borgomeo were among defendants in a case that was thrown out last year after the statute of limitations expired.
At the time, Lombardi said he was not satisfied with the result since he had expected an acquittal.
The Vatican spokesman said the Holy See would soon publish its own experts' conclusion in the case.
A 2001 investigation by Italy's environment ministry showed that magnetic fields in the area were six times more powerful than allowed, while Rome's Lazio region estimated that the rate of deaths from leukaemia among children in the Cesano area was three times higher than in adjoining areas.
Vatican City, the world's smallest state, is an enclave of Rome covering 0.44 square kilometres (0.17 square miles).

In Street of Dreams, Martin Scorsese paints a picture of love, memory and emotions through the distinctive setting of New York. Set against the atmospheric backdrop of the deserted city on a Sunday morning, the 60-second film tells the story of a chance re-union between two lovers, Scarlett Johansson and Matthew McConaughey, who, after years apart to pursue their own dreams, see their paths cross again after they have both become great movie stars.
Set in timeless locations from Hollywood to Cinecittà, the new print advertising campaign for Dolce&Gabbana The One is brought to life by the expert eye of photographer Peter Lindbergh. With the film set on a secluded beach on the outskirts of Los Angeles, the campaign sees Scarlett and Matthew backstage, surrounded by spotlights, recreating a scene that has striking parallel to their own lives. It is a tribute to the golden years of Italian cinema, with Scarlett and Matthew evoking 21st century incarnations of Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni.

Ion Vein part ways with long-time vocalist, seek replacement
Band founder, Chris Lotesto, issued the following statement:
Its with a very heavy heart that I am announcing our decision to part ways
with long-time Ion Vein vocalist and friend, Russ Klimczak. Russ has been
an integral part of Ion Vein, and one of my best friends, for the past 10
years so as you can imagine, this has not been an easy thing. The decision
is strictly a musical one and not personal in the least.
Ion Vein has been continually evolving musically over the past 10 years and
we have finally reached a point to where Russ vocal style and approach is
just not working with the music any longer. This has been a very difficult
time for Brian, Chuck and I as we had to put our friendship with Russ aside
and look out for the best interest of the band.
We wish Russ nothing but the best and I would like to personally thank him
for sticking it out with me from the very beginning, through thick and
thin. Weve accomplished a lot together so its hard to say goodbye to
this chapter in the book of Ion Vein.
With that being said, we are also looking forward to the next chapter in
the Ion Vein story and will begin our search for a new vocalist immediately
while we continue to track the new album with Neil Kernon. We are looking
for an experienced, multi-dimensional singer, with a lot of attitude, drive
and stage presence. If you think you have what it takes to help us take
things to the next level, please email a resume and sound clips to
mail at ionvein.com. You can also send email there if you would like to
get in touch with Russ and I will make sure he gets it.
Thanks for your support!
Chris, Chuck and Brian

New Order, October 12, Palladium Ballroom
When one of the most influential bands of all time announces they're doing a North American tour and that your town is one of the seven stops, you do everything you can to get there. When I reviewed New Order's show back in October, I opened with a note about how, despite a list of naysayers snarking about how it wasn't the true New Order, this was an opportunity for so many of us to catch one of the greats. Honestly, I don't think that says it all; I never thought I'd get to see New Order live and I'm still in shock that it happened. I'll always remember the crowd losing its mind and dancing, as a group of 50-somethings played music they had mastered during 30 years of being together. Was it the best New Order show to ever happen in Dallas? No, but it was the best one I'll ever have chance to see. JAIME-PAUL FALCON
Kendrick Lamar, October 31, South Side Music Hall
Kendrick Lamar's Dallas outing this Halloween arrived just a week after the release of his major label debut, Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City. But this show wasn't one of Dallas' best of the year because of the headliner alone. What really set this show apart was how well it illustrated the strong love Dallas rap fans have for the culture. -topic was added on the bill as opener in a truly democratic move. Texas rap promotion powerhouse Scoremore was barraged by Dallas rap fans on Twitter, insisting that -topic would best represent the local scene. Alongside Dallas dream-rap staple Dustin Cavazos, the warm-up acts did just that. Kendrick Lamar fed the crowd's energy level, as they sang every lyric in near perfect time, holding up newly purchased copies of GKMC. VANESSA QUILANTAN
Public Image Ltd, November 1, Granada Theater
John Lydon wailed, cajoled and grimaced his way through all of Public Image's "hits," beginning with "This is Not a Love Song," and after that the band took hold of the (surprisingly not sold out) crowd and pummeled it into post-punk goo. Lydon's vocals were just OK, as reverb (somewhat) compensated for his lack of range, but vocals were never his strong suit. Lydon is still all about presence. DARRYL SMYERS

AK Steel Holding To Become Very Bullish 0 comments
Feb 9, 2012 6:52 AM | about stocks: AKSInvestors have an opportunity today to get in the bottom of the bullish move AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS) is about to make, with trend line support going back to October 3rd AKS has been in a slow upward channel approaching it's analyst estimate at $11.23 per share.After a week long sell off AKS has returned to oversold territory where historically it gets a bounce shown in the chart below.
With the combination of the trend support and bullish attributes from the indicators on the Daily and Hourly charts AKS should see another run above $10.30 within the next week or two. With 47% upside from it's 52 Week highs back in August, AKS is a very good candidate for a short squeeze to run closer to these higher numbers.
AK Steel Holding Corporation is a producer of flat-rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steels and tubular products through its wholly owned subsidiary, AK Steel Corporation (AK Steel). AK Holding's operations consist of seven steelmaking and finishing plants located in Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and Pennsylvania that produce flat-rolled carbon steels, including coated, cold-rolled and hot-rolled products, and specialty stainless and electrical steels that are sold in hot band, and sheet and strip form. Its operations also include AK Tube LLC (AK Tube), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which further finishes flat-rolled carbon and stainless steel at two tube plants, one located in Ohio and one located in Indiana, into welded steel tubing used in the automotive, large truck and construction markets. In addition, the Company's operations include European trading companies that buy and sell steel and steel products and other materials.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, but may initiate a long position in AKS over the next 72 hours.

Image Viewer (with zoom and rotation)
Hi, does anyone know if there is a component that integrates with EXT JS for showing, zooming and rotating images/pictures?
I noticed there were some flash components for charting and wondered if there is sth. like that for view images.

Nothing built in that I know of. But I've used the following in conjunction with ExtJS. Just do a little customization:
Javascript Cropping script: http://www.defusion.org.uk/code/java...scriptaculous/
Slideshow Pro (has lots of scripting options): http://slideshowpro.net/
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the replies. I think I can use Ext.ux.imageEditor. I would have liked rotation to be more flexible (only in steps of 90 degrees) and the possibilty to move the image with a hand symbol. I am also experimenting to combine sth like this with phpThumb so that I can manipulate the image on the server side. That would support rotation, however results vary per image format.

use ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick for image processing, will give you a lot more performance and more possible operations.

A 0.18 µm process CMOS image sensor has recently been developed by e2v technologies plc. with a 0.5 megapixel imaging area consisting of 6 x 6 µm 5T pixels. The sensor is able to provide high performance in a diverse range of applications including machine vision and medical imaging, offering good low-light performance at a video rate of up to 60 fps. The CMOS sensor has desirable characteristics which make it appealing for a number of space applications. Following on from previous tests of the radiation hardness of the image sensors to proton radiation, in which the increase in dark-current and appearance of bright and RTS pixels was quantified, the sensors have now been subjected to a dose of gamma radiation. Knowledge of the performance after irradiation is important to judge suitability for space applications and radiation sensitive medical imaging applications. This knowledge will also enable image correction to mitigate the effects and allow for future CMOS devices to be designed to improve upon the findings in this paper. One device was irradiated to destruction after 120 krad(Si) while biased, and four other devices were irradiated between 5 and 20 krad(Si) while biased. This paper explores the resulting radiation damage effects on the CMOS image sensor such as increased dark current, and a central brightening effect, and discusses the implications for use of the sensor in space applications.

US 6907579 B2 Abstract A user interface and method for interacting with a three-dimensional graphical environment is determined. Multiple viewing perspectives are provided to the user to allow the user to view and navigate through the environment at approximately eye level or "fly over" and view the environment from an overhead view. Labels corresponding to partitioned areas rotate to adjust to the changing perspective of the user and area color coding adjusts hierarchically dependent on the user's perspective. Partitions and the ceiling of the environment have variable translucency/transparency so as to provide the user with forward viewing capability of the environment and read labels in other areas. The interface controls the movement of the user's in a natural manner and movement is tracked to provide the user with a history of the user's previous navigation path. Addition information views are provided by the interface relating to different objects within the interface.
Claims(5) 1. A method for navigating through a three-dimensional graphical environment comprising:
providing at least two modes for viewing the environment having a boundary defining an inside area and an outside area of the environment including:
a first mode for viewing and navigating within the inside area thereby providing an "eye level" view of the environment; and
a second mode for viewing and navigating within the outside area providing an overhead view of the environment;
wherein switching between modes occurs automatically dependent on user movement; and
wherein when switching between modes a continuous viewing perspective is provided.

Description The present invention relates to three-dimensional graphical environments and in particular, this disclosure provides a user interface to improve discovery of and navigation through a three-dimensional graphical environment. Interfaces are used to provide a user with a means of visualizing information on a display screen. There are some universally desirable features of the interface regardless of the application. It should enable the user to navigate and browse through the information quickly. It should be visually compelling and interactive to allow the user to effortlessly manipulate the visualization. Finally, it should be an intuitive interface. The type of user interface is generally determined by the manner in which the interface represents the information displayed on the system screen. For instance, one simple well-known interface represents a plurality of data objects (i.e., word processing documents, images, video clips) as icons and textual labels. In this case, the interface is designed so as to allow easy manipulation and intuitive viewing of the icons. For instance, this type of interface allows a user to cut/paste/copy an icon from one place to another in the display or allows a user to change the manner in which the icons and labels are viewed (i.e., as a listing of files or groups of icons). This type of interface often has a "find" option that will search for and find specific files. Other well-known word processing interfaces display a text document or image document and allow a user to edit and compose a document or image. This type of user interface often includes a menu that provides the user with different options for editing, viewing, and formatting the document being displayed. Three-dimensional graphical interfaces display information within a three-dimensional graphical (or virtual) environment to allow viewing of and navigation through information in an intuitive and immersive manner. Since people are physically accustomed to navigating through and viewing objects in a real three-dimensional world, a three-dimensional graphical environment becomes an intuitive, immersive, and natural environment to the user. Often, the information that is represented by the three-dimensional interface is a large database of data objects. The interface displays the data objects as representative images within the three-dimensional graphical environment and then provides the user the ability to navigate within the virtual environment to view the representative images and interact with the corresponding data objects. As can be imagined, if the environment is not displayed in an organized or logical manner or if the user's ability to navigate through the environment is limited or awkward, the advantages of using a three-dimensional interface are significantly diminished. In fact, an ineffectual three-dimensional interface could more easily frustrate than assist a user. The present invention is a three-dimensional graphical interface providing advantageous user movement and control within the three-dimensional graphical environment as well as manners in which to display the environment. A user interface and method of using thereof for a three-dimensional graphical environment including at least the following aspects is described:
In general, the present invention is a user interface and method of using thereof for viewing a plurality of representative images in a three-dimensional graphical environment. According to this description, each representative image corresponds to a data object. A data object is broadly defined as stored data that corresponds to a tangible or intangible object or element. Examples of types of data objects can include but are not limited to image data, audio data, word processing data, video data, and 3-D models. Examples of types of objects or elements can include but are not limited to movie videos, CDs, works of art, electronic word processing documents, electronic personnel records, and commercial inventory. If, for instance, the object type is movie videos, a specific object of that type would be a particular movie. Moreover, representative images can be embodied as text labels, natural images, graphical images, document and file folder images, video images, three-dimensional models, or any type of visual data. In one embodiment, the data objects stored within a database are related such that they can be logically viewed, categorized, grouped and/or arranged in some way with respect to their associated data object. Each data object can have associated data referred to as metadata which corresponds to any data other than the data object itself that describes or relates to the data object, and each data object may have different types of metadata. For instance, in the case in which the object type is movie videos, types of metadata may include data corresponding to the title of the movie, director of the movie, the release date of the movie, the actors of the movie, genre of movie (e.g., comedy, drama) etc. In contrast, in the case in which the object type is artwork, types of metadata may include title of the work and school of art (e.g. modern, impressionistic). Metadata can be stored with the data object or may be stored separately such that a link exists between the data object and its associated metadata. The user interface of the present invention can be implemented in a system adapted to render and display a three-dimensional image. According to one embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, two modes are provided, each one giving the user a viewing perspective originating from either inside or outside of an environment. According to this embodiment, if the user is viewing outside of the environment or is viewing the inside of the environment (through the ceiling) from an outside viewing perspective, this constitutes the "outside" mode. Similarly, if the user is viewing within the inside of the environment or is viewing the outside of the environment (through the ceiling) from an inside viewing perspective, this constitutes the "inside" mode. In either mode, the user is allowed to view and navigate the environment with six degrees of freedom (i.e., translations in x, y, z and rotations about x, y, z). It should be noted that viewer mode (i.e., "inside" and "outside" modes) can be user selected or can be automatically selected dependent on user movements. It should be further noted that the boundary between the inside area 21 and outside area 22 is not necessarily explicitly represented. For instance, a boundary may be implicit in that it is the point at which the inside area 21 of the three-dimensional graphical environment stops and/or the outside area 22 begins. In another embodiment, when switching between modes, the user is provided with a continuous viewing perspective transition, thereby giving the user the perception of flying between modes. For instance, as shown in In still another embodiment, in which the environment is partitioned into a plurality of areas, the user is provided with the ability to navigate within the environment by passing over partitions. Specifically, the user can automatically transition from the "inside" mode on one side of a partition to the "outside" mode above the partition and then back to the "inside" mode somewhere else within the environment with a continuous viewing perspective transition. This transition gives the user the perception of flying over partitions. In still another embodiment, instead of passing over partitions, the user is provided with the ability to pass through partitions, thereby reducing the navigation path into other partitioned areas within the environment. According to this embodiment, partitions can be made transparent or translucent such as shown in According to another embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, areas are distinguished according to at least one predetermined image grouping. For instance, in a partitioned environment including a plurality of areas bounded by partitions and ceilings, the partitions and/or ceilings are made visibly distinguishable using, for instance, colors, patterns etc., so as to distinctly identify each area within the environment dependent on the predetermined image grouping. In one embodiment, partitioned areas (i.e., partitions, ceilings, labels, etc.) are colored according to the predetermined grouping. According to this embodiment, images within a given area can be grouped according to the images' corresponding data object metadata. Furthermore, representative images of a database of objects can be hierarchically grouped dependent on data object metadata by representing the database according to a hierarchical tree. According to one embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, the partitioned areas corresponding to images grouped according to a hierarchical tree based on metadata are made visibly distinguishable from other areas in the environment using, for instance, colors, patterns etc., so as to distinctly identify each area within the environment. According to one embodiment, each partitioned area is made visibly distinguishable by causing any or all of the partitions, ceilings, labels, or any element associated with the area to be displayed in a unique color. It should be noted that this identification method can be automatically performed by the user interface or may be selected by the user. In addition, once the identification method is selected, selection of how areas are made to be distinguishable (i.e., which colors or patterns are used, whether patterns or colors are used, the darkness or lightness of the colors/patterns, etc.) may be automated or user selected. For instance, the user may explicitly select particular colors, patterns, etc. According to another embodiment of the user interface and method thereof, partitioned area colors are variable dependent the hierarchical grouping of the images. As shown by the hierarchical tree representing the database of objects (FIG. 5A), objects are grouped differently at each level of the tree. On the highest level (node 50), all objects are grouped together as consumer electronics products. On the second level (nodes 51), objects are divided between two groups, computing and imaging. Consequently, partitioned areas are colored, patterned, etc., according to the hierarchical level by which the images are currently grouped. Distinguishing areas of the environment with respect to different hierarchical grouping levels can be manually selected or initiated by changing viewing perspective. For instance, a user can manually select a particular hierarchical grouping level from the user interface menu to distinguish groups in the environment to cause the partitioned areas to be distinguished according to that grouping level. Alternatively, hierarchical grouping level, and consequently partitioned area color, patterns, etc., can change as the viewing perspective of the user changes. For instance, It should be noted that the distinguishable ceilings may be selectably or automatically set to be transparent, translucent, or opaque. Non-opaque ceilings allow the user to quickly identify a visually distinguished area of interest while in the "outside" mode and then view (while still in the "outside" mode) the representative images within the area to quickly locate an image of interest or browse through all images within the area of interest. Furthermore, translucent, rather than transparent, ceilings are advantageous since the user can see into the environment and still obtain a sense of the color for the overall grouping. Transparent or translucent ceilings allow a user to observe color/pattern groupings from the "inside" mode as well. In another embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, labels that identify areas rotate and translate dependent on the user's viewing perspective. In one embodiment, labels located within and corresponding to a partitioned area rotate and translate dependent on the user's viewing perspective whether the user is in the "inside" or "outside" mode. Similarly, labels located outside of the environment corresponding to the area rotate and translate dependent on the user's viewing perspective whether the user is in the "inside" or "outside" mode. According to this embodiment, a non-transparent ceiling can be selected such that only the labels located within the area are visible and rotate dependent on the viewer perspective. Alternatively, transparent or translucent ceilings can be selected such that the user sees both the label within the area and sees other labels above the area, and such that all labels are movable with respect to the viewer perspective. In this case, labels above the area can correspond to higher-level hierarchical grouping labels as described above. Hence, in this case, the user can be in the "inside" mode navigating within the environment and can select a transparent ceiling to see the hierarchical group label for the area that that is being viewed. When the viewing perspective 73 is above the environment oriented downward as shown in In another embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, images can be selected by lining up the point of sight of the user's viewing perspective with an image of interest and then selection and/or activation can be initiated by the user with an input device such as a keyboard, mouse, or joystick. According to this embodiment, once the point of sight is lined up with the image, upon initiation, the user can be automatically moved closer to the image in the three-dimensional graphical environment. As a result, the user does not have to navigate the remaining distance to the image once the user initiates this "auto-move" mode to the image. This apparent movement is achieved by a linear view interpolation according to Eq. 1, where in this case (x0, y0, z0, φ0, θ0, ρ0) is the user's starting translation and rotation parameters, (xf, yf, zf, φf, θf, ρf) is the corresponding target parameters, and where the target viewing perspective is positioned in front of the image of interest and oriented fronto-parallel to it. In one embodiment, the interface automatically determines which image the point of sight is lined up with (i.e., the image of interest) dependent on the user's viewing direction and position within the area with respect to each of the area's partitions and images displayed on the partitions. Once the image of interest is identified, the interface can automatically move the user closer to the image. It should be noted that the above described "auto-move" mode can also be applied to automatically move the user to any element in the environment that the line of sight is aligned with. For instance, the user can be automatically moved to an opening in one of the partitions (e.g., doorway) or to a given partition. The representative images can also become interactive when selected by the user according to the above described automatic selection technique. For instance, a representative image embodied as a three-dimensional model may be rotated by the user to provide the user with additional views of the model. In addition, representative images may be selected to access additional related multi-media data. For instance, a two-dimensional representative image may be selected so as to access an audio clip associated with the data object, access a three-dimensional model of the corresponding two-dimensional image, access a video sequence, access another external application (e.g. a web page), etc. In general, user movement is assigned to input device controls such that the most commonly used movements are assigned to the easiest and most intuitive control sequences for the given input device. It should be further noted that in one embodiment, the number of degrees of freedom provided to the user by the input device is limited or reduced in order to make navigating the environment more manageable. In other words, providing the user with too much navigation freedom can become more confusing and less intuitive to the user. Accordingly, in the case of a joystick with two analog controllers, the two controllers can be assigned as follows: the left controller manipulates forward-backward motion (translation in z) and panning (rotation about y) while the right controller manipulates side-to-side motion and height change (translation in x and y, respectively). The mouse can be assigned in a similar manner, where the left-button-click-and-drag controls forward-backward motion (translation in z) and panning (rotation about y) and the right-button-click-and-drag controls side-to-side motion and height change (translations in x and y). The user can also tilt the viewing perspective (rotate about the x-axis) with a simultaneous left-and-right-click-and-drag. The keyboard can be assigned in a similar manner with the cursor keys and simultaneous pressing of the shift key. It should be noted that the above translations and rotations are locally defined with respect to the user's current viewing perspective. In one embodiment, the tilt angle of the viewing perspective is controlled dependent on the elevation of the viewing perspective with respect to the x-z plane. For instance, referring to In one embodiment, user movements are constrained while navigating inside the environment such that each partitioned area can include an active navigation zone and an inactive navigation zone. The active zone is the portion of the partitioned area that the user is allowed to navigate within and the inactive zone is the portion of the partitioned area that the user is not allowed to navigate within. In one embodiment, the active zone is peripherally bounded by the inactive zone except at openings in the partitions of the partitioned area (i.e., locations at which the user passes from the partitioned area into another partitioned area). When the user navigates towards an opening, the inactive/active zones restrict navigation such that the user's movements are naturally directed towards the opening. One advantage of constraining the user movements in this way is that it reduced the user's need to be precisely aligned with openings in order to navigate smoothly out of them. In another embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, a detailed information window may be displayed along with the three-dimensional graphical environment to provide the user details about a currently selected image. In another embodiment of the user interface and method of using thereof, an overhead map 94 of the environment shows the navigation path of the user within the environment to keep track of where the user has visited and is currently located. In a similar manner, the navigation path 95 is also shown within the environment itself to provide navigation history. In one embodiment, the navigation path can be associated with a time stamp to provide the user with a means of determining a navigation location dependent on time of day or a specific date thereby providing a much more comprehensive and complete navigation history. Moreover, other user options can include but are not limited to the user selecting and highlighting portions of the navigation path so as to be automatically moved to that location as well as having the option to simply clear the entire path navigation path. In the preceding description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that these specific details need not be employed to practice the present invention. In other instances, well-known techniques have not been described in detail in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the present invention. In addition, although elements of the present invention have been described in conjunction with certain embodiments, it is appreciated that the invention can be implemented in a variety of other ways. Consequently, it is to be understood that the particular embodiments shown and described by way of illustration is in no way intended to be considered limiting. Reference to the details of these embodiments is not intended to limit the scope of the claims which themselves recited only those features regarded as essential to the invention. Patent Citations

Bridlewood Winery Pinot Noir
Bridlewood Winery
- California
- United States
- San Luis Obispo
Pinot Noir is one of the planet's most widely grown and enjoyed grape varietals, and thanks to the popularity of the key wines it is associated with Burgundy and Champagne it has successfully spread from its native home in France to much of the wine producing world. Pinot Noir means 'black pine' in French, and this refers to the extremely dark, inky color of the fruit, and the fact that it grows in conical bunches, resembling a large pine cone. It has long been revered for its wide range of refreshing, summery flavors, and the fact that it produces red wines of a beautiful garnet color and light body. More recently, sparkling wines made exclusively with Pinot Noir have been extremely popular, and the orchard notes found in the fizzy 'blanc des noirs' wines mark out just how versatile this grape varietal really is. Despite being notoriously difficult to grow, it isn't hard to see why this grape is now found in vineyards all over the world, as it is synonymous with romance and decadence, quality and fantastic flavor
When it comes to New World wine regions, it is widely agreed that many of the finest wines are grown and produced in California. The long stretches of coastline and the valleys and mountainsides which come off them are ideal areas for vine cultivation, and for over a century now, wineries have found a perfect home in the hot, dry state, with many of the wines produced here going on to reach world class status. The state is greatly helped by the brisk oceanic winds which cool the otherwise hot and dry vineyards, which hold mineral rich soils covering vast areas and featuring many established wineries. The state is split into four main regions, the largest by far being the central valley which stretches over three hundred miles in length.
For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.

Chiefs tight end Sean McGrath to retire
After a few days of uncertainty, tight end Sean McGrath has apparently made his retirement official.
"McGrath is gonna retire, that's what we've been told by him," Reid said Saturday. "I wish him the best. He's a good kid. It's a personal decision he made."
McGrath, 26, served as a valuable backup last season, when he caught 26 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns. The Chiefs claimed him off waivers before the season and he was pushed into duty quickly, thanks to injuries to Travis Kelce and Anthony Fasano.
McGrath was present for the entirety of organized team activities in June and was expected to compete for a backup job in camp this year with Demetrius Harris, who starred during OTAs.
The reason for his retirement is unclear, though Reid said Thursday that McGrath was working "some personal things" out.
McGrath reported to the team's dormitory at Missouri Western on Wednesday, the day veterans were mandated to report. Unlike his teammates, however, he was not carrying any belongings.
"I talked to (McGrath)," Kelce said recently. "He's still my brother. He's still part of the crew. I love him to death."

Massachusetts has passed a universal health care plan with an individual mandate and a modest employer mandate. Employers who don't insure their workers will pay a $295 annual fee per employee.

Megan Garcia, one of the three Angelides daughters who appeared in a campaign ad I criticized here, wants equal time (or, really, space). I agreed to give it to her. Here's her note:
I don't read your blog, but I was sent a copy of the piece you did on the television ad in which my sisters and I appear. My sisters and I were deeply offended by what you wrote. We volunteered to do this ad because we believe in our dad and know that he'll be a great governor. He'll fight to make sure more California kids have the chance to go to college.You were wrong to call the ad "slimy" and to single out my dad's campaign in such juvenile way. Al Gore's daughters proudly spoke before millions of Americans on behalf of their father at the 2000 Democratic Convention. John Kerry's daughters appeared on their dad's behalf at the 2004 convention. Steve Westly's children appear in his ads.
We spoke up on behalf of our dad because he'll do the right things for education and college opportunity. You owe my sisters and me an apology.

This report from the California Healthcare Foundation shows that nationally, spending on health care per person grew 69 percent, from $3,354 to $5,631 per person between 1993 and 2003. For context, during the same time frame, state and local spending per student in the California schools grew by 61 percent, from $4,187 to $6,752, according to the legislative analyst.
Check out the foundation's report for detail on the different elements of the health care cost increases.

Here is my column from today's Bee about a little-noticed court ruling that could have a major effect on direct democracy in California, especially at the local level. It would require recall and presumably initiative petitions to be circulated in multiple languages. A major tip of the hat to Election Law blogger Rick Hasen for birdogging this issue.

A new poll from San Jose State shows Schwarzenegger's approval rating inching upward, the governor running even against both Angelides and Westly, and the two Democrats in a dead heat in the primary with more than half of the voters undecided.

Happy Saturday dear friends!!
It's day 3 of the 12 Days of Christmas Series and also a Card Patterns Saturday and I thought it would be fun to try something new and combine them today!! Here is the sketch:
and here's my take on the sketch:
Day 3 Hybrid Happiness
I used Rhonna Farrer's Christmas Junque Pieces and Printable Background to create this card. I just love the Quatrefoil and Ledger background papers!! I know I will use these digital papers over and over again!! I resized and fussy cut all the elements, and then I added some seam binding and baker's twine from this week's sponsor My Craft Spot. I just love Kim's seam binding!!! I actually just placed an order for Vintage Valentine Seam Binding yesterday and it has already been shipped!! That's fabulous service I tell ya!!! I also added some punched pine boughs and a red button to round out the embellishments.
I would love to challenge you to try a hybrid card today. There are many sites out there that offer free digital goodies and I have a special surprise for you today!! If you are inspired by this post to try a hybrid card, I will enter you into a drawing for a brand new October Afternoon Sidewalks 8x8 paper pad.Just post a link to your blog in the comments section by midnight, December 12th, and I will add your name to the drawing. Please use at least one digital image in your card to qualify for the drawing.
Thanks for joining in the fun and I look forward to seeing what you create!!!!
Have a wonderful day and Happy Creating,

They're all just revised versions of each other. They all have the same power potential, they just kept making the wastegate a bit better for each revision. I would go with the 43 or 48 though, because they seem to have fixed the wastegate cracking problem the 39 is known to have, even though it doesn't affect performance.
so if i buy the turbo now and the top mount a few months down the road i wont hurt anything?
and does the year on tmic have to match the year of the turbo? |

First Watch: Zola Jesus, 'Fall Back'
I suppose it would be natural, if you grew up relatively isolated in a Wisconsin forest, to find yourself fascinated by cities. And so it is for the 24-year-old Russian-American singer Nika Roza Danilova, best known as Zola Jesus. In the video for her song "Fall Back," from the new album Versions, we see Nika in two settings: the vast coldness of urban concrete and the nature of the forest. "Shooting in the forest was very important," Nika writes. "The forest is raw and naked, which is in line for my intent for Versions. The concrete represents fixedness and composure — an attempt to create solid order in an otherwise chaotic environment."
"Fall Back" is the only new song on Versions, the fourth Zola Jesus album, which also includes nine previously released songs newly recorded in a stripped-down, string-driven collaboration with J.G. Thirlwell (who some might know from his project Foetus) and the New York-based Mivos Quartet.
The video for "Fall Back," created in collaboration with the New York-based director Allie Avital, was inspired by the Japanese filmmaker Hiroshi Teshigahara, architecht Frank Lloyd Wright and Soviet-era Yugoslavian monuments. "When I wrote 'Fall Back,' I was thinking of those moments in your life when you know exactly what you want, and how it is in that instant of knowing that you commit yourself to the unbending stamina of your own will," Nika writes. "You relinquish control to instincts. The video communicates the stillness of conviction. By capturing the point when the eye fixes the target. There is very little movement, as it is not about getting that thing you want, but knowing that it will be yours."
Avital writes that she sees the film as a "minimalist exploration of geometry and forms in nature. We wanted to express emotion through the visual language of the elements, combined with kinetic cinematography and austere styling."
The idea of shooting in the forest, Nika Roza Danilova says, was central: "It reminds me of where I come from."
Zola Jesus will be touring this string-based project across the U.S. and Europe starting next month.

Why Baroness Scotland has to go
- Laurence Copeland is a professor of finance at Cardiff University Business School and a co-author of ŌĆ£Verdict on the CrashŌĆØ published by the Institute of Economic Affairs. The opinions expressed are his own. -
ŌĆ£Lilies that fester smell far worse than weedsŌĆØ Shakespeare, Sonnet No. 94
The BardŌĆÖs words sum up one of two reasons why the Attorney General, Baroness Scotland, ought to resign in response to being fined 5000 pounds for employing an illegal immigrant in her home. We have a right to expect nothing but the highest standards from any government officer, especially the countryŌĆÖs top legal officer.
However, the lilies-that-fester issue is not the only one involved here. Although this case may not look to most people as serious as many of the scandals of recent years, it has an additional dimension which is absent from run-of-the-mill cases of ministers (or judges or senior policemen) caught exceeding the speed limit or cruising a red-light district.
Just look at the excuses being wheeled out on behalf of the Baroness. They all amount to saying that the law as it currently stands makes demands on prospective employers that are so bureaucratic, time-consuming and complex that nobody should be surprised if even the Attorney-General, with all the resources at her disposal, gets it wrong.
If this is the case, it is an appalling state of affairs, and, far from strengthening the defence, actually makes the case for her departure unanswerable. After all, it may be possible to argue that the average person cannot be expected to conduct a thorough investigation of the residence status of every child-minder, window-cleaner or gardener they employ (though, if this is conceded, 5000 pounds might sound like an unjustly harsh penalty for anyone earning less than the Attorney-General!).
But can the same defence be mounted for the head of the countryŌĆÖs legal profession, given that she is not only a member of the government, and as such ought to take her fair share of the responsibility for creating this bureaucratic nightmare, but that she is also reported to have had a hand in drafting the law?
One would expect her to carry a more than equal share of the blame for intervention in the labour market in a form that is a deterrent (or, insofar as a fine may be unavoidable, a tax) on employment, as well as an affront to democracy, since it puts┬Ā ordinary folk (and apparently even the Attorney General) in a situation where it is well-nigh impossible for them to operate within the law. (Nor ought it to be any defence, however true, to say that there are many other legal minefields strewn in the path of the innocent citizen.)
In other words, far from being an argument in her defence, the fact that an employerŌĆÖs obligations under the law are so onerous is actually an indictment of Lady ScotlandŌĆÖs performance as a minister, and an additional reason to demand her resignation. The fact that she has fallen foul of her own law is simply poetic justice, or as Shakespeare put it, she is hoist with her own petard.

Lee Westwood (FJ ICON, PureTouch Limited) fired a course record 8-under 64 Sunday to run away from the field with a six shot victory at the Dubai World Championship. The 36-year-old shot four rounds in the 60's to finish the week with a 23-under total and lead the way for FJ players who swept the top four positions on the leaderboard. Ross McGowan (FJ ICON style #52070, StaSof glove) carded a final round 68, including five straight birdies from the 12th, to secure second place at 17-under after a sustained charge from Rory McIlroy (FJ ICON MyJoys, PureTouch Limited) who birdied five holes on the back nine to finish third at 15-under. Padraig Harrington (SYNR-G style #53918, PureTouch Limited) finished in a tie for fourth. Westwood also secured the season-long Race to Dubai and recognition as the European Number One for the second time in his career. He came to the final event trailing Rory McIlroy. Westwood's victory was the 32nd victory worldwide as a professional and his second victory on The European Tour this season. It also moves Westwood up to World Number Four in the Official World Golf Rankings, matching his highest career position."I'm delighted to be standing here and it's got to be the best day of my golfing career. I think that's about as good as I've ever played under this pressure," said Westwood."Hopefully there will be more, maybe a Major in the future. Some of the young players coming through, like Rory McIlroy, put me under a lot of pressure so it will be tough. I'm going to enjoy the rest of 2009."
We've been meeting with some of our Tour players over the past several months to take them through the more than 2 million custom combinations available in FootJoy's MyJoys program.

They were the best team during the regular season and the New York Yankees were every bit as good in the postseason, defeating the Philadelphia Phillies in six games to earn their record 27th World Series Championship. Celebrate this historic season and show your pride with a pair of custom Yankees MyJoys, available in both spiked and spikeless.

Billed as the place "where golfers unite to talk about everything golf," The Hacker's Paradise recently received a pair of very stylish MyJoys featuring Lilac Large Lizard Print and Lime patent leathers. Josh from THP will be reviewing the MyJoys process as well as the shoes themselves in the next few weeks before he cleans them and places them among his collectables! Check out the thread when you have a chance to read what the THP community thinks of the shoes and poke around the site which has some pretty cool features and very active golf enthusiasts.
Recognized as the preeminant amateur team event, the Walker Cup is a men's amateur competition played every other year between a squad from the United States and another representing Great Britain and Ireland. It always features some of the very best young players who you will soon be watching compete on professional tours around the world. While there are many differences between the two sides, when this year's 42nd Walker Cup Match was played at the 6,846-yard Merion Golf Club, the 10 players on each side had one very important equipment choice in common...they all chose to wear the new FJ ICON golf shoes from FootJoy. The teams chose two styles each, one for the morning fourball matches and one for the afternoon singles matches. The United States team, which defeated the GB&I team 16.5 - 9.5 to win for the third consecutive time, wore the FJ ICON white pebble, traditional saddle (style #52005) during the morning matches and the new white and black sport saddle (style #52070) during the afternoon. The GB&I team opted for custom shoes through FootJoy's MyJoys program that featured their team logo on the heel of the shoes. They also wore the white pebble traditional saddle in the morning but opted for a white and black saddle (style #52039) in the afternoon. Overall, it was the third consecutive win for the Americans, who now hold a 34-7-1 all-time record in the Walker Cup. Check out some images below. [Gallery: 09walker_cup]
[Gallery: dbc_day2] Another stunning day at the TPC Boston in Norton, Massachusetts as the top 100 players in the world made final preparations for the Deutsche Bank Championship. Once again we were collecting feedback on the new FJ ICON line and working with the players to design some custom shoes through the MyJoys program. We shot some video wth the players talking about the custom process and options that we'll share in the next few weeks. In the meantime, click on the image below to see some highlights from Thursday.
[Gallery: dbc_day1] We were on the range Tuesday at the PGA Tour's second playoff event, the Deutsche Bank Championship. We were not only checking in with our FootJoy players but also set up a large display to show them the full line of FJ ICON styles and all the options available through the MyJoys program. In short, the players were thrilled! Check out the pictures from Wednesday and we'll post video next week so you can hear what players such as David Toms, Charley Hoffman, John Merrick and Jason Bohn think of FootJoy's new flagship product and all the custom options!
[Gallery: firstlook_fjicon_myjoys] For months, you've heard us talking about the millions of ways you'll be able to customize FJ ICON once they're available in MyJoys (September). Well, we recently ordered some samples we'll be taking to the Deutsche Bank Championship next week to show the players as they begin to customize their own, and thought we would share them with you as well. These are some of the first samples off the line and they look incredible! Click on Comments and let us know what you think. Which is your favorite?

There was lots of color on the victorious US team at Rich Harvest Farms this weekend and their shoes were no exception. Here are some images of FJ players in their custom USA inspired kicks. Enjoy!

A walk-in cooler or walk-in freezer is an essential piece of equipment in most foodservice establishments. Its primary purpose is to keep a large quantity of perishable food cold. Unlike a reach-in unit, with a walk-in you can "walk in" to the unit for very easy access to your product.
Most walk-ins are made up of panels of foam insulation bonded between two sheets of metal, with the panels being assembled on site with cam locking devices. A refrigeration system typically ships with the walk-in. Many different configurations of panels and refrigeration systems are available.
The essential features of a walk-in:
If you're reading this buying guide, it means you're probably looking to replace or upgrade a walk-in, or are looking to buy for the first time. Rest assured a knowledgeable Central Product Consultant can help you find the right walk-in best for your establishment.
We know there are many things to consider when buying a new walk-in. Talk to your Product Consultant about your options. We advertise several top brands (Kolpak, Norlake, Leer), but have access to many more. Let us know your needs and we'll help you find just the right walk-in for you.

Buses are the backbone of Israel's transportation network, and the Egged company runs most of them – accounting for some 60 percent of Israel's urban and inter-city public road transportation. The company was even more of a monopoly a generation ago. Then, only wealthy Israelis could afford cars – nicknamed "privates" – because of punitively high import duties and gas prices. As trains...
