In this paper we study the distribution of dynamic data over a broadcast channel to a large number of passive clients. Clients obtain the information by accessing the channel and listening for the next available packet. This scenario, referred to as packet-based or discrete broadcast, has many practical applications such as the distribution of weather and traffic updates to wireless mobile devices, reconfiguration and reprogramming of wireless sensors and downloading dynamic task information in battlefield networks. The optimal broadcast protocols require a high degree of synchronization between the server and the wireless clients. However, in typical wireless settings such degree of synchronization is difficult to achieve due to the inaccuracy of internal clocks. Moreover, in some settings, such as military applications, synchronized transmission is not desirable due to jamming. The lack of synchronization leads to large delays and excessive power consumption. Accordingly, in this work we focus on the design of optimal broadcast schedules that are robust to clock inaccuracy. We present universal schedules for delivery of up-to-date information with minimum waiting time in asynchronous settings.

Armistice Day Blizzard
The storm track of the Armistice Day Blizzard
Type | Extratropical cyclone Blizzard Panhandle Hook |
Formed | November 10, 1940 |
Dissipated | November 12, 1940 |
Lowest pressure | 971 mbar (hPa) (at Duluth, MN)[1] |
Maximum snowfall or ice accretion | 27 inches (68.6 cm) (Collegeville, MN) |
Damage | $2.2 million (1940)[2][3] |
Fatalities | 154[1] |
Areas affected | Midwestern United States |
The Armistice Day Blizzard (or the Armistice Day Storm) took place in the Midwest region of the United States on November 11 (Armistice Day) and November 12, 1940. The intense early-season "panhandle hook" winter storm cut a 1,000-mile-wide (1600 km) swath through the middle of the country from Kansas to Michigan.
Meteorological synopsis[edit]
The morning of November 11, 1940 brought with it unseasonably high temperatures. By early afternoon, temperatures had warmed into the lower to middle 60s °F (18 °C) over most of the affected region. However, as the day wore on conditions quickly deteriorated. Temperatures dropped sharply, winds picked up, and rain, followed by sleet, and then snow began to fall. An intense low pressure system had tracked from the southern plains northeastward into western Wisconsin, pulling Gulf of Mexico moisture up from the south and pulling down a cold arctic air mass from the north.
The result was a raging blizzard that would last into the next day. Snowfalls of up to 27 inches (69 cm), winds of 50 to 80 mph (80–130 km/h), 20-foot (6.1 m) snow drifts, and 50-degree Fahrenheit (30 °C) temperature drops were common over parts of the states of Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. In Minnesota, 27 inches (69 cm) of snow fell at Collegeville, and the Twin Cities recorded 16 inches (41 cm). Record low pressures were recorded in La Crosse, Wisconsin and Duluth, Minnesota.[3] Transportation and communications were crippled, which exacerbated finding the dead and injured. The Armistice Day Blizzard ranks #2 in Minnesota's list of top-5 weather events of the 20th century.[4]
A total of 145 deaths were blamed on the storm, with the following instances being noteworthy:
- Along the Mississippi River several hundred duck hunters had taken time off from work and school to take advantage of the ideal hunting conditions. Weather forecasters had not predicted the severity of the oncoming storm, and as a result many of the hunters were not dressed for cold weather. When the storm began many hunters took shelter on small islands in the Mississippi River, and the 50 mph (80 km/h) winds and 5-foot (1.5 m) waves overcame their encampments. Some became stranded on the islands and then froze to death in the single-digit temperatures that moved in over night. Others tried to make it to shore and drowned. Duck hunters constituted about half of the 49 deaths in Minnesota. Those who survived told of how ducks came south with the storm by the thousands, and everybody could have shot their daily limit had they not been focused on survival. Casualties were lessened by the efforts of Max Conrad, a pioneering light plane pilot and one of his students (John R. Bean) both based in Winona, Minnesota, 25 miles upriver from La Crosse. They flew up and down the river in the wake of the storm, locating survivors and dropping supplies to them. Both men were nominated for the Carnegie Medal for their heroism.
- In Watkins, Minnesota, 2 people died when two trains collided in the blinding snow.
- In Lake Michigan, 66 sailors died on three freighters, the SS Anna C. Minch, the SS Novadoc, and the SS William B. Davock, as well as two smaller boats that sank.
- 13 people died in Illinois, 13 in Wisconsin, and 4 in Michigan.[5]
Additionally, 1.5 million turkeys intended for Thanksgiving dinner across Minnesota perished from exposure to the cold conditions.
Prior to this event, all of the weather forecasts for the region originated in Chicago. After the failure to provide an accurate forecast for this blizzard, forecasting responsibilities were expanded to include 24-hour coverage and more forecasting offices were created, yielding more accurate local forecasts.[6]

brilliant tour, staff were fantastic
September 2014
Fantastic tour! Our tour guide was amazing, picked us up right on time at our B and B which was so helpful since we had no car on this trip. He took us to several spots for photo ops which were breathtaking before we even got to Hill Top. The ability to be taken right to the front of the line at Hill Top and straight in was very convenient. The drive to our boat ride was gorgeous and I really enjoyed being able to get on the lake and see the lush scenery from the water. Again, our tour guide kept us on track, on schedule and showed us a terrific amount of places, my camera was overflowing with photos! So glad I was able to add this to our Lake District visit, very convenient, comfortable, relaxing and affordable.

Probably. Even to now we're not sure how Miiverse, Nintendo Network and their friend coding system is going to work. They're keeping that very much under wraps for the time being. But I definatley wouldn't rule anything out. It is very possible that the Nintendo I.D will be their friend coding system that ties in with Miiverse.

Reliable CAD Workhorses
1 Dec, 2002 By: Ron LaFonSpeed always tops the list of what's new in CAD workstations, as Intel and AMD continually produce ever-faster processors. CAD/CAM, engineering software, and certain graphics applications are among the reasons that faster processors are still important to many of us in our day-to-day work. Time is still money, and the faster you can complete a given drawing or visualization, the more time-and money-you save. Users of, say, Microsoft Word aren't clamoring for more speed. My wetware (brain) is usually the bottleneck here, or how fast I can type, not how fast letters appear on a screen.
We're also seeing a wealth of speedy graphics cards that can keep up with the blazing speeds of today's microprocessors. Many of the new systems tested here also have two or more USB v2.0 ports to handle faster peripherals such as scanners, CD-R/W or DVD drives, or any of the wealth of new devices making their way into the workplace.
With increased CPU speeds comes heat, and the need for enhanced case ventilation to keep everything cool enough to function correctly. Unfortunately, more ventilation usually means more noise. None of the systems tested for this roundup was what you'd call quiet, though some fared better than others. When I can hear a system running from a room or two away, it is, in my opinion, too loud. Though noise-dampening cases are available, as are quieter fans, at each new CPU speed level, today's systems tend to tax the limits of tolerable noise. This is likely to be an ongoing problem unless some realistic (and economical) breakthrough occurs in cooling high-performance workstations.
System cases tend to be smaller and offer greater connectivity options than in past roundups. These trends are likely to continue as devices such as floppy drives become relatively obsolete legacy devices in the near-term future.
We can't help but wonder when a system roundup will once again include AMD microprocessors. Intel appears to now have the upper hand in performance. But AMD plans to deliver new processors in the near future, so that might change once again.
Our testing procedure for this roundup has evolved somewhat from the last time we benchmarked workstations here in Cadalyst (June 2002). The C2001 test remains the same-and continues to give AutoCAD 2002 a thorough workout. For the SPEC ViewPerfect test, however, we moved to v7.0 and are now using the ProE01 suite of tests. This updated suite still gives a reliable test of video performance, particularly the OpenGL characteristics of a graphics card, and adds a few new models and tests to the benchmark series. We also used this test suite for our recent graphics card roundup (October 2002) and expect to continue using it for the near future.
For the graphics card review, we also adopted a new 3ds max benchmark-3dsmax 4.2.6. 3ds max 5 was not quite out of beta testing when we needed to run our tests. 3ds max 5 is now released (see box on p. 22), so we ran the MAX4Bench suite of tests using the new release. If you're interested in benchmarking your current system with 3ds max 5, you can find the benchmark tests on 3ds max 5's second CD-ROM. These new tests, along with 3ds max 5, give systems a substantial workout and address many new video card features, such as pixel shading.
Click here to see the "Reviewer's Report Card" (PDF format).
Most likely as a result of using the larger cache found in the current crop of Pentium 4 systems, both the ViewPerf and the MAX4Bench tests ran a bit faster than expected in comparison with AutoCAD running the C2001 benchmark. This is primarily a result of how AutoCAD and 3ds max 5 each work-AutoCAD is more dependent upon subsequent iterations and procedures.
As we often say, so much depends on the drivers. We generally don't test AutoCAD with high-performance drivers. We've found that some such drivers signal that-for example-a screen has been erased, when in actuality it has not, making it impossible to test apples against apples, as the saying goes. By using the default accelerated AutoCAD driver, we ensure that all graphics cards are working the same way.
Video drivers that have settings for 3ds max 4.x or 5.x generally post lower scores for those versions of max than do the default drivers. When accelerated drivers are available, we do test 3ds max with them, although we base system scores on tests with the default driver. Because 3ds max 5 supports advanced features found in the current crop of graphic cards, the default Windows drivers offer even greater performance. Default video drivers for certain graphics cards literally increase performance about 25% using nothing more than the standard Windows drivers. Investigate and choose your drivers carefully.
If you need the fastest, hottest system, there's sure to be much to please in the selection reviewed here. The workstation market will see big changes in the coming months. We'll soon see the first round of systems based on the Intel Pentium 4 3.06GHz processors and new chipsets. Hyperthreading and AGP 8X are but two of the new features that will make their appearance then. Both are likely to change our performance expectations from these top-end systems. Initial test results may not do the technology justice, however. Hyperthreading benefits may depend just as much on your software applications as they do on the processor, for example.
Also new is the Tablet PC, which made its official debut in early November. Will your firm use Tablet PCs as adjuncts to CAD workstations? We'll check them out early in 2003.

Safety Tips for Working Out in the Dark
It may still be warm outside, but the days are getting shorter and that means your early morning or evening workout may now be in the dark. See and be seen with these tips and gear recommendations for safely working out during the dawn, dusk or at night!
Tips to Remember:
- It can be just as difficult for others to see you during dusk and dawn as when it's completely dark. Keep these tips in mind in the hours before and after sunrise and sunset as well as at night.
- Just after sunrise and right before sunset, the sun is at a lower angle which can be blinding for drivers. If a driver is facing into the sun, they may not be able to see you at all. Be especially cautious around cars during these times of day.
- Make yourself more visible by wearing reflective gear or a light source on your body

Tube Park Opens
Beginning this Saturday, December 15 the Blackcomb Mountain Tube Park will be open for the winter season. The Tube Park is located at Blackcomb Mountain's Mid-Station and is home to a number of tube runs that can be sled down on giant inflatable tubes.
There are several different runs that vary in speed and difficultly at the Tube Park. Each run is 1000 feet but fear not there is a fancy smancy conveyor belt that takes you and you're tube from the bottom of the run to the top.
As previously mentioned the Whistler Blackcomb Tube Park is located at Mid-Station on Blackcomb Mountain. For those that don't know this is located about a 7 minute drive or chairlift up Blackcomb Mountain. Which means you can either take a free chairlift (Excalibur Gondola) from the base of Blackcomb Mountain or you can drive up via Glacier Lane and Park in Lot 8. Either way you are situated right beside the park when you arrive.
The Whistler Blackcomb Tube Park charges according to an hourly rate. Below is a quick break down of the prices.
Price | Adult (19-64) | Child 12 & Under | Senior 65+ |
1 Hour Rate | $21 | $18 | $16 |
2 Hour Rate | $30 | $25 | $19 |
Each Additional Hour | $19 | $16 | $11 |
Twightlight 6PM - 8PM | &19 | $16 | $11 |
Hours of Operation
The Tube Park is open 7 days a week and will be open on weekdays from 12PM - 8PM and on weekends & holidays 11AM - 8PM. Christmas break December 22 to January 6, 2013 will run according to the holidays hours. However the park will be closing at 5PM on December 24 & 25.
More Info
If you've never been tubing before you're in for a treat. The Tube Park is a great place to spend a day in Whistler. You can also get going surprisingly fast if you wonder over to the faster tracks. But at the same time it's awesome that you can bring the whole family out and gauge which track/speed is right for everyone. Another cool feature is the ability to link together tubes and use the run together as a group.
The Whistler Blackcomb Tube Park opens this Saturday so stop on by this winter season and get your tube on.
Check out a short video of a day at the Tube Park

From the Publisher
From the reviews:"… in spite of their intrinsic importance, there are relatively few treatments of bilinear control systems in monograph form that are accessible to students; that is why the book under review is a welcome addition to the control-theory literature…As with any good introductory treatment, the author smartly avoids trying to be encyclopedic and getting bogged down in peripheral technical minutia…
A unique feature of the book is the inclusion of a half-dozen Mathematica scripts that aid in explicit computations of such tasks as finding a basis for the matrix Lie algebra generated by the bilinear system's matrices B1, . . . ,Bm and determining the generic Lie rank of a finite collection of linear vector fields. This book is highly recommended to both students and researchers in control theory."Kevin A. Grasse, MathSciNet, 2009
"This work by Elliott … is a textbook for a graduate course in a subarea of control theory. … The work provides an extensive reference section to the literature of the field. It will be useful to libraries supporting graduate programs in engineering with courses in control theory, and will also be valuable to researchers in disciplines that use control theory. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty, and practitioners." (D. Z. Spicer, Choice, Vol. 47 (3), November, 2009)
"The monograph deals with problems of nonlinear systems analysis. The author examines bilinear control systems as time-invariant nonlinear systems with control inputs that appear as coefficients. … Examples of bilinear control systems have been given in a separate chapter. … Main results are illustrated by examples, proofs are given or cited. Appendices A-D contain standard facts about matrices, Lie groups and Lie algebras that are helpful for readers." (Valeriy N. Tkachenko, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1171, 2009)

BAE Systems is a global organisation engaged in the development, delivery and support of advanced defence, security and aerospace systems in the air, on land and at sea.
The South African arm of BAE Systems was bought out in 2004, and became part of the global group. Following the deal, funds where made available for it to upgrade its local IT infrastructure to bring it in line with the rest of the group.
The initial journey, says group IT manager Abri du Plessis, involved getting a base platform in place. This meant integrating all three South African sites, and getting them onto the same network, operating system, mail platforms and connectivity.
ŌĆ£Two projects were started,ŌĆØ he says (noting that he only joined the team in November last year, after this had happened). ŌĆ£The one involved rolling out connectivity through an MPLS WAN via a Telkom line, contracted by BT, to the centre in the UK. This was done by CSC, the companyŌĆÖs IT partner in the UK.
The second project involved its IT platform. ŌĆ£IT started architecturing a solution for us, and then presented it to the guys in the UK for approval in terms of the security, architecture and platform going forward. With some negotiations, the architecture was finalised,ŌĆØ he says. ŌĆ£Then the processes here started. We tried to use the opportunity to take a giant leap ahead in terms of technology, to get onto a platform and technology that would take us forward over the next three to five years, bearing in mind that weŌĆÖre a growing company and we also need to be able to add to it at any point.
ŌĆ£If you look at the base technology (the network, which is Cisco layer 3 switching), it provides a good way of building security into the network. Add to that Cisco IP Telephony so we can make IP calls between the three sites and take advantage of other functionality like unified communications. In the server room we looked at server, storage, application and desktop virtualisation.
This all gives us a lot of flexibility in terms of how we take the business forward, keeping in mind the technology roadmap is put in place by BAE worldwide,ŌĆØ he comments.
The final deal included the implementation of: Server, desktop and application virtualisation at all three offices, installation of an EMC storage and ILM solution, installation of advanced switching infrastructure, IP telephony, secure wireless networking, Cisco Unified Video, storage for BAEŌĆÖs ERP system, full back-up and data recovery over all three branches, a ŌĆśbroadlinkŌĆÖ network with data and voice capabilities and setting up a Cisco Telepresence facility in the Pretoria office. A support deal, in terms of which Think IT will provide 24/7 support for the next three years, has also been signed.
Of the three BAE sites in South Africa, at time of writing (early November), one (in Pretoria) had been transformed and migrated, with the other two were due to be completed by the end of November. ŌĆ£This will give us one unified IT system, with all three sites connected to each other,ŌĆØ says Du Plessis. ŌĆ£This means we can replicate one to another, connect to the DR site, call one to another and get connected to the [global] BAE network, where we can get the advantages of collaborating on the website and gaining access to the latest information published worldwide.ŌĆØ
Once the current platform is done, BAE will take a look at its internal IT service delivery platform. ŌĆ£This is the softer side,ŌĆØ he says. ŌĆ£The harder side has been put in place by Think IT here and CSC in the UK.ŌĆØ
BAE is also busy with a few other projects, such as its Cisco Telepresence implementation (which, once live, will apparently be the first commercial installation on the continent). ŌĆ£Being a company with worldwide locations, it makes sense in terms of money saved by not paying for flights and the ability to set up meetings quickly without having to disrupt peopleŌĆÖs personal lives, etc.ŌĆØ
BAE is installing a CTS3200 system, which can seat 14 people. ŌĆ£This way we can have big reviews and meetings with our head office in Houston,ŌĆØ he notes.
Think IT head Louis Botha says the Telepresence system, which was mandated by BAE head office, is being tested by Cisco and Dimension Data. ŌĆ£Due to the bandwidth issues, and the distance [between here and Houston, 14 506km], weŌĆÖve had to have assessments and testing done. ŌĆ£This should [have been] be complete by the end of November.ŌĆØ
Other projects on the go include Sharepoint and Office Communicator implementations, which Du Plessis says will enhance communications between the overseas and local sites.
Du Plessis says the company is also busy aligning the business with ITIL principles, and that training is underway at present.
The challenges at the moment, he says, is to get ThinkIT, CSC and internal IT all aligned and pulling in the right direction. ŌĆ£So far, so good,ŌĆØ he adds, noting that there have been little bits of politics here and there.
BAE, says Botha, is moving from a reactive state of operations (IT-wise) to a structured, managed environment where everything that needs doing can be done from the data centre. ŌĆ£Although thereŌĆÖs been a huge upfront cost, BAE is aligning itself with current trends and paving the way for the future.ŌĆØ

The effect of baseline pulmonary artery pressure on right ventricular functions after mitral balloon valvuloplasty for rheumatic mitral stenosis: a tissue Doppler imaging study
Romatizmal mitral darlığı olan hastalarda bazal pulmoner arter basıncının perkütan mitral balon valvüloplasti sonrası sağ ventrikül fonksiyonlarına etkisi: Doku Doppler görüntüleme çalışması
Objectives: We evaluated the effect of baseline pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) on right ventricular functions after percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) for rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). Study design: The study included 56 patients (15 males, 41 females; mean age 35 years) who underwent PMBV for isolated rheumatic MS. The patients were divided into two groups according to the baseline median systolic pulmonary artery pressure (PAP ≥40 mmHg, n=33; PAP <40 mmHg, n=23) measured before PMBV by echocardiography. Right ventricular function was assessed by pulse wave Doppler tissue imaging and the Tei index. Assessments were repeated 48 hours and three months after PMBV. Results: The peak systolic (S) velocity of the lateral tricuspid annulus did not differ between the two groups at baseline. In patients with pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH), it showed a slight increase at 48 hours, but fell behind the baseline at three months. In patients without PAH, it showed a significant increase at 48 hours and remained unchanged at three months. Peak late diastolic (A) velocities were significantly higher at all times in patients without PAH. Patients with PAH had a significantly higher E/A ratio both at baseline and at 48 hours; however, at three months, this difference disappeared. Patients with PAH had higher isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) at baseline and 48 hours; however, final IVRT was lower than the baseline only in patients with PAH. Isovolumic contraction time showed a steady but insignificant increase in both groups over three months. E-wave deceleration time showed a significant increase and contraction time showed a slight increase over three months only in patients with PAH. The baseline Tei index was higher in patients with PAH (p=0.004). Changes in the Tei index over time were not significant. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that, If PMBV is performed before the development of PAH, it may be more effective in the improvement of right ventricular longitudinal functions in patients with rheumatic MS. Key words: Balloon dilatation; echocardiography/methods; mitral valve stenosis/therapy; hypertension, pulmonary; rheumatic heart disease/therapy; ventricular function, right.

BANGKOK : Thailand's coup leader is expected to be picked as prime minister by the kingdom's new army-dominated national assembly, junta sources said Wednesday, cementing the military's hold on power in the politically turbulent nation.
Army Chief Prayut Chan-O-Cha is likely to be the sole candidate for the premiership when the 197-strong appointed assembly convenes on Thursday to select a new leader for the Southeast Asian country, the sources told AFP.
"It was difficult to find people to become prime minister other than General Prayut. If it's not him, who else should it be?" one junta official said on condition of anonymity.
"He staged a coup. He has to be responsible for solving all the problems by himself. By becoming prime minister, he will have full power," the official added.
Another member of the junta, formally known as the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO), said Prayut was set to be chosen because he is "suitable for the job".
"According to polls, he enjoys public popularity and people also admire the NCPO's work," said the source, who also asked not to be named.
Prayut seized power from an elected government in a bloodless coup on May 22, shortly after Yingluck Shinawatra was dismissed as prime minister in a controversial court ruling.
Thailand has been riven by political divisions since Yingluck's elder brother, the former billionaire telecoms tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra, was toppled as prime minister in a coup in 2006.
Thailand's army rulers say they want to introduce political reforms before holding a general election late next year.
They say their power grab was necessary to end a months-long political crisis and related street violence that left nearly 30 people dead and paralysed the former civilian government.
Critics see the move as an attempt to purge Thailand of Thaksin's political influence, which has already been undermined by a purge of his allies in government, state industries and the police.
The junta has vowed to remain in place in parallel to the future government, which will be nominated by the new prime minister.
Prayut, who is due to retire as army chief in September, is seen as a staunch opponent of Thaksin and a fervent royalist known for bluntly stating his opinions.
He gave a hint of his apparent political ambitions when he swapped his uniform for a suit and tie to appear in parliament on Monday to oversee the approval of the national budget, which was waved through with no opposition.
Thaksin fled Thailand in 2008 to avoid prison for a corruption conviction that he insists was politically motivated.
Yingluck, who was indicted for dereliction of duty a day after she was removed from office, could also face criminal charges linked to a loss-making rice subsidy scheme.
Thaksin, who clashed with the royalist establishment before his overthrow, lives in Dubai but remains a hugely divisive figure in his homeland.
Prayut is often described as the architect of an army crackdown on a pro-Thaksin "Red Shirt" rally in Bangkok in 2010 that left dozens dead.
The army chief is not expected to attend Thursday's vote in the National Legislative Assembly (NLA) because he will be at a military anniversary event outside Bangkok, the junta sources said.
Nomination as a candidate for the premiership requires the backing of about 40 people in the assembly, NLA member Somchai Sawaengkarn said.
To be selected for the post, Prayut would need the support of more than half of the NLA, he added.

Okay so it is back on, hopefully they can get this one right this time. (And award it to the HH-71A of course! ) I do like Young's comments on the CV-22 though, that's the most logical choice for a CSAR role, IMO. Quote: The Pentagon is looking to have its new combat, search and rescue (CSAR) aircraft requirements by September. Defense acquisition czar Ashton Carter officially canceled the $15 billion CSAR-X replacement helicopter program May 28, following years of controversy surrounding certain requirements development, as well as bidder protests that overturned the initial contract award to Boeing. http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/gener...AR%20Requirements%20By%20September

Good job, I like it
I like celebrity stories. Hope you can write stories about Nicole Kidman and Cindy Crawford. About a teen gardener or houseboy who get caught sniffing their dirty panties. Nicole or Cindy gets upset at first then got flattered and told the boy he can continue sniffing their panties as long as he tells no one. With the celebrity wearing sexy houseclothes or short loose shorts around the house and the private yard the boy got a treat to sniff the celebrity's crotch and let the boy sniff their panties while still wearing them. Then it progressed to sniffing their pretty, hairy, musky pussy. Then it leads to intercourse. It would be exciting if the panties smells musky, pungent and intoxicating, specially if it belongs to celebrities.

If you're looking for ways to make 2012 a better year for both you and your animals, here is resolution #4 for animal lovers: Volunteer!I have a lot of animal loving friends who tell me they can't even consider volunteering at a shelter, because they don't know if they could handle seeing what happens to animals that don't find homes.

Back in October, my friend Beth, a cat lover of the highest order, told me about a kitty her friend found shivering behind a restaurant here in Rochester, NY.

Streams of contentment and lessons learned from animals
In the classic song, "Thank God I'm A Country Boy," John Denver sang, "Life on the farm is kinda laid back"; I've always wondered what he meant by that. I visited a dairy farm once and believe me, the amount of work needed to feed, milk, and otherwise care for cows and then get the milk to processing was certainly not laid back. It was arduous to the nth degree.Now that I'm older, I realize Denver wasn't talking about the physical life on the farm in that famous song, but instead the mental a … [Read more...]

It's that time of the week again, and we've had several great apps launch on the Google Play Store. Not only that, if you're an Android fanatic too, you'll know that you can also buy Magazines in Europe, too. Though, you're not here to read House Beautiful, you're here to get some great applications et al. Here they are:
1. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City | £3.74 | Download
After a failed launch, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is finally available to download and play for everyone. You can revisit the child inside and take on tasks of the mob, like stealing cars and picking up packages. Mind you, running from the cops when you're on 6 stars seems more fun. If you're not concerned by forking out a few quid, this is a great game for you.2. After Focus | Free or £1.11 | Download
Edited using After Focus, taken by myself |
3. Digital Hive Free LWP | Free | Download
A different wallpaper can make all of the difference on your Android device, it can make it seem brand new. This live wallpaper can make your Android feel really slick, and it isn't too overpowering. It's free too, although I recommend your phone or tablet has at least 1GB or RAM, otherwise it might slow it down.
4. Retro Camera | Free | Download
Tired of Instagram? Don't care for Twitter's filters? Well then, I might have the perfect app for you, Retro Camera. With Retro Camera, you can take photos with an olden style feel, then add filters and share the image on a e-postcard with your friends or family via Twitter, Facebook or email. For free, there's no reason why not to.5. TouchPal Contacts | Free | Download
Click to enlarge |
6. AnySoftKeyboard | Free | Download
The problem with older Android devices is that they have poorly designed keyboards. AnySoftKeyboard, however, lets you replace your default keyboard with a whole bunch of others. It also works on tablets, with split sections for easy thumb typing when in landscape mode.That's it for the next week. I hope you have found some apps that will help you, and if you think they're cool, share this post with the options below.

Explore The Visayas Cebu Bohol Siquijor Negros Guimaras Panay Boracay Romblon Samar Leyte Share Eight kilometres off the northern tip of Cebu, the tiny island of Malapascua is often touted as the next Boracay, largely because of Bounty Beach, a blindingly white stretch of sand on the island's south coast. The island also has great diving, and is renowned for the chance to see thresher sharks. The nearest airport is Cebu, meaning that so far Malapascua has escaped over-development, but it's changing fast, and many new resorts and dive shops have established themselves. The locals love to party and no matter when you visit, chances are there'll be some kind of fiesta or pageant. Diving is Malapascua's main drawcard with a number of extreme dive sites that will get the adrenaline pumping more than your average gentle drift along a shallow reef, and there are several top quality outfits on the island. Divelink are both well-established, and recently opened Evolution is professional and also offers technical diving. Dives typically cost P1200-1500 including equipment. Sightings of thresher sharks at Monad Shoal have been less common in recent years, but they are still around, and given a few early mornings you should get lucky. There are also plenty of wrecks in the vicinity, including the passenger ferry Dona Marilyn, which went down in a 1984 typhoon and is now home to scorpion fish, flamefish and stingrays. Overnight trips can be arranged to the tiny volcanic island of Maripipi, where reef sharks and dolphins are common.

Launching in nine European countries at the end of last year, Layar's social and user-generated augmented reality app Stiktu is now available worlwide, allowing you to tag and add your own content to any scannable surface with your iOS or Android smartphone.
From today, users around the world will be able to add drawings, text, images and even stickers to magazines and posters, adding to existing creations or leaving them for other people to find.
Users will be able to connect by linking, sharing and commenting on real-world items and objects that have been tagged virtually via the app.
Layar is no stranger to augmented reality apps, in fact it rolled-out 3D AR graphics back in 2009, then its Layar Vision app which brought AR to publications, and we also interviewed Layar's CEO Raimo van der Klein back in June last year.
Maurice Groenhart, Product manager of Stiktu, explains how the app has adapted over the past six months:
"Over the past months, we have been focused on improving the user experience, and we have learned a lot from our users about their use of Stiktu. With every release, we have seen the levels of engagement growing as users return on a daily basis to create posts and interact with others. These numbers and incoming requests for a global release by people all over the world helped us decide to take this step and open up Stiktu to the rest of the world."
You can download Stiktu via the App Store and Google Play using the links below.

Story I. - Perseus | Charles Kingsley | |
Part III - How Perseus Slew The Gorgon |
Page 1 of 6 |
SO Perseus started on his journey, going dry-shod over land and sea; and his heart was high and joyful, for the winged sandals bore him each day a seven days' journey. And he went by Cythnus, and by Ceos, and the pleasant Cyclades to Attica; and past Athens and Thebes, and the Copaic lake, and up the vale of Cephissus, and past the peaks of OEta and Pindus, and over the rich Thessalian plains, till the sunny hills of Greece were behind him, and before him were the wilds of the north. Then he passed the Thracian mountains, and many a barbarous tribe, Paeons and Dardans and Triballi, till he came to the Ister stream, and the dreary Scythian plains. And he walked across the Ister dry-shod, and away through the moors and fens, day and night toward the bleak north-west, turning neither to the right hand nor the left, till he came to the Unshapen Land, and the place which has no name. |

Port Aransas Sargassum weed
Category: Travel Portraits
Photo and caption by Rose Greer
I fell in love with Sargassum weed during one of our many trips to the Texas coast and Port Aransas. I purchased a book, "Into the Sea", at the National Seashore at Malaquite beach, which took us on a journey of a female turtle and introduced my son and I to this seemingly ambiguious plant. Washing onto the shore, one would not realize that the Sargassum weed demonstrates the health of a coast but also provides habitat for the matching Sargassum fish and a resting place for turtles as they traverse the expanses of the open ocean and migrate to their nesting grounds.
Location: Port Aransas, Texas. Padre Island.
