The Vuzix M100 is the world's first commercially available "Smart Glasses." It is an Android-based wearable computer, enhanced with a wearable monocular display and computer, recording features and wireless connectivity capabilities designed for commercial, professional, and prosumer users. Powerful, small and lightweight, the M100 is well suited for a variety of industrial, medical, retail and prosumer applications. Pre-installed apps can be used to record and playback still pictures and video, track timed events, manage your calendar, link to your phone and more. The M100 is also compatible with thousands of existing Android apps and easy access to developer resources enables the creation of custom apps to suit virtually any need.
Vuzix M100 provides most of the features and capabilities of a modern smartphone, without a cellular radio, in a hands-free wearable device. It incudes a HD camera for still picture and video capture and enables the user to store their content in expandable onboard memory or stream it live. Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity makes it easy to pair with another Android device or connect wirelessly with Wi-Fi to the Internet. An integrated head tracking and GPS system can not only provide apps with your location but even the direction and angle of your current view for unprecedented situational awareness.
Hands free access to data, direct and remote video capabilities, direct onboard processing of video capture for lag-free Augmented Reality (AR) and more. The era of Smart Glasses is here, ushered in by the Vuzix M100.
Vuzix smart glasses, M100 were the recipient of the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) Innovations 2013 Design and Engineering Award BEST OF INNOVATIONS, and selected as Best Technology in the Wireless Handset Accessory category.

Smart Glasses
Smart Glasses are a wearable display system with onboard intelligence. They can range from wearable display systems with only rudimentary data display capabilities to products that rely upon remote cloud connectivity for application and data processing, up to devices such as the M100 that incorporate a complete Android system comparable to current smartphones.
The Android system embedded in the M100 is able to run many thousands of existing Android apps plus Android apps customized or created exclusively for its unique design.
Video Display
A 16:9, WQVGA, full color display floats in or near your line of sight, providing an image visually equivalent to a 4 in. smartphone screen held at a typical 14 in. distance. Display arm adjustments, display tilt, and left or right eye mounting options, enable you to position the M100 for maximum effectiveness and viewing comfort. A convenient display shield maximizes visibility in bright outdoor sunlight and the small display size minimizes the visual blockage of the real-world view.
The Vuzix Smart Glasses M100 incorporates a compact White Pearl™ display module and ultra-low-power driver IC, both from Kopin Corporation.
Wearable Mounting
Which is your dominant eye? Two mounting solutions are provided with the M100, an adjustable over-the-head system as well as a safety-glass solution. Both allow for left or right eye use. The image in the M100 display rotates to accommodate either eye.
How do you control apps and features with a wearable hands-free device? With the M100 smart glasses, you are free to choose the interface method best suited to you and your application. Four control buttons on the M100, a traditional smartphone software interface and controls running remotely on a paired Android device, through voice navigation, or using gesture controls, the M100 supports them all.
Operating Modes
Three operating modes are available; Local, HUD and Collaborative.
|In Local mode, applications are loaded onto and run directly on the M100 using its onboard processor and memory.
|HUD mode utilizes apps loaded and run on a paired Android device where the M100 serves as a Heads Up Display.
|Collaborative mode employs the power of both the M100 and a paired Android device. Applications written specifically for this operating mode are able to communicate and collaborate to maximize performance.
Each of these operating modes can be run with or without an active Internet connection.
The M100's integrated camera captures 5 megapixel still images and 1080p high-definition video. Video and image capture can be stored directly on the M100's memory (expandable up to 32 GB) or streamed live. Where privacy may be a concern when recording video, a "video recording indicator" light on the face of the M100 provides an alert, the same as that accepted for use with video cameras around the world.
As hinted by the M100's form factor, audio-out is provided to a single ear. Dual microphones provide audio recording and voice input with noise cancelation.
Battery life or "runtime" is an important consideration, especially in mission critical business, professional and industrial applications. With so many factors affecting power draw, such as the use of wireless connectivity, display brightness camera usage and more, it is impossible to accurately predict your personal runtime. To alleviate runtime concerns, regardless of your usage scenario, the M100 provides a trifecta of power options: a high capacity rechargeable internal battery, an external USB mini-B power port, plus an external battery pack extending the internal battery's staying power seven fold.
Color Choice
Available in two colors:
M100 Smart Glasses (Gray)
Part Number: 425T00011
M100 Smart Glasses (White)
Part Number: 425T00021

Vuzix is excited to present the new OS 2.0 software package for its wearable M100 Smart Glasses.
The M100 Smart Glasses serves up the digital world before your eye, offering unprecedented "hands free" access to information, data collection, interactive work flow information, hands free computing and much more. Now with a completely updated set of software "OS 2.0" the features and capabilities of the M100 have been significantly enhanced providing an entirely new and improved experience. OS 2.0 is the result of months of customer feedback and in field trials. Vuzix has taken that feedback and incorporated as much as possible as the backbone for OS 2.0 enabling key features like:
The Vuzix M100 Smart Glasses with OS 2.0 are built on Android Version 4.0.4 with many enhanced capabilities and a completely new user interface and look and feel.
The M100 launcher is now built on a carousel style "desktop" as opposed to a conventional 2D array of applications. For standalone operation this enhances the user experience and enables natural controls for voice, gesture, and buttons.
The device partner "Manager" application connects to the M100 through Bluetooth and is geared to work with the M100's Carousel. By synchronizing with the M100 using its own matching carousel the device partner "Manager" app allows easy control and navigation of both native M100 and legacy Android application controls running on the M100 Smart Glasses.
Note: OS 2.0 is available for download here and will run on most previously shipped versions of the M100 Smart Glasses.
OS 2.0 running on the M100 Smart Glasses supports multiple improved user interface methods including hardware buttons, voice navigation, gesturing, and remote user interface software running on a paired partner device.
The hardware buttons function similarly to those on other Android devices. In many instances, a quick "press and release" and a long "press and hold" may be interpreted differently by different apps.
|Rear Button
|"press and release"
|-Androids standard SELECT function
|"press and hold"
|-Androids standard HOME function
|Center Button
|"press and release"
|-Move selection BACK
|"press and hold"
|-Androids standard BACK function
|Front Button
|"press and release"
|-Move selection FORWARD
|"press and hold"
|-Androids standard MENU function
|On/Off Power Button
|"press and release"
|-Puts M100 in sleep mode
|"press and hold"
|-Open power menu to turn off the M100 or toggle Airplane mode.
|"press and hold 10 seconds"
|-Force shutdown of the M100
OS 2.0 Voice navigation is based on the Nunance recognition engine and is available on compatible voice command enabled applications. This recognition is performed locally in the M100 so no internet connection is required and fast responses result. There are both global and application specific voice commands available. Developers can also request custom voice libraries to enable specific voice commands within their application.
The list of recognized voice commands is growing constantly and may vary from one app to another. Examples of some basic commands, recognized by the pre-installed M100 software, are provided below.
|Voice on – enable voice control (The M100 is always listening for this unless voice control is selected to be turned off)
Move right – move right one icon
|Voice off – disable voice control (automatically disables after 20seconds with no voice action)
Select [1-5] – selects the corresponding item
|Scroll left – scroll to the left
Take Picture – opens the Camera app
|Scroll right – scroll to the right
Show menu – shows menu options
|Stop/Halt – stop scroll
Voice help – displays a list of possible words the current application understands for about 5 seconds
|Move left – move left one icon
Go back – back one level in app
Go home – return to launcher
Current Time – opens the Clock app
From most voice enabled applications you can also have immediate access to most of the M100s base apps simply be appending the word GO in front of the application name. For example:
Note: Most applications that are voice enabled also support the VOICE HELP command. Simply Say "VOICE HELP" to get a list of available voice commands. The M100 will respond with an overlay showing the available commands as shown.
OS 2.0 now also supports gesture control, recognizing forward/back, up/down and in/out hand gestures performed in close proximity to its gesture sensor.
The gesture sensor in your M100 may be located in either of two locations, depending upon its date of manufacture.
OS2.0 on the M100 includes a number of native or Smart Glasses specific apps some of which are pre-installed on the M100 and others that are downloaded for Android partner devices.
The Smart Glasses Manager is designed to manage applications on the M100 and be the conduit for connecting your device to the M100 to install new applications.
The new OS 2.0 Smart Glasses Manager installs on many different Android partner devices from smart phones to tablets. The new OS 2.0 now also supports Bluetooth 3.0 for connection to the M100 enabling Bluetooth low energy, a requirement for connectivity to the iPhone and iOS devices in development at Vuzix engineering labs.
The M100 Smart Glasses Manager application provides a traditional tap and drag style of interface where a user interface for the M100's Smart Glasses running application is displayed through the Manager application running on the partner device. Using the partner device's screen you can scroll through the menus of apps installed on your M100 as well as launch and manage them. A virtual keyboard and mouse, on the partner device screen, enables you to provide both keyboard and mouse style input.
With OS 2.0 the M100 can run native M100 application and most Android based legacy applications. In the case of running a native M100 app, like the supplied Camera app, when the camera icon is selected on the partner device it opens up all the controls for the camera on the Manager and the camera app on the M100 starts running as shown. Now either the M100 local controls or the Manager app can be used to control the camera application running on the M100.
Android based legacy applications running on the M100 often need a keyboard or a mouse to run them. When a legacy application like the Search or Browser application on the M100 is selected from the manager, the partner device Manager application supplies the keyboard and mouse function as shown here. The space above the keyboard becomes a mouse pad for the M100 and when a field is selected that needs a keyboard the keyboard automatically comes up as shown.
With OS 2.0 many of the base applications that come preinstalled on the M100 have been written to take advantage of the new OS 2.0 capabilities and are considered native applications. Here are just a few examples.
The Audio Recorder application is a Native M100 Application. It can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the partner device Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
Sample voice commands supported: record audio, pause recording, resume recording, delete recording,
go library, go audio recording
The Calendar application is a Native M100 Application designed to sync with the calendar on the partner device. It can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
Sample voice commands supported: Scroll Down, Scroll Up, Next Day/Week/Month/Year, Previous Day, Stop/Halt, View calendar for <date>
The Camera application is a Native M100 Application. It can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
Sample voice commands supported: focus, zoom, take picture, take video, start recording, stop recording
The Clock application is a Native M100 Application. It can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
Sample voice commands supported: go clock, go stopwatch, go timer, start, resume, stop, halt, reset
Press Clock icon on the partner device and then select the "Clock", "Stopwatch" or "Timer" mode. Setup the M100 through this interface and press "Start"
The Contacts application is a Native M100 Application designed to sync to the contacts database on the partner device. It can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
The Gallery application is a native M100 Application that manages the videos and pictures taken on the M100 Smart Glasses and allows them to be moved/copied to the partner device. Using the launcher on the M100 images and videos can also be connected directly to social media sites. The Gallery app can be controlled standalone by Voice, Buttons and Gesture or by using the Smart Glasses Manager application installed on the Partner Device.
The Scanner allows you to read QR Codes and Bar Code using your Smart Glasses camera. It has been integrated into certain features of the M100 to make it easy, for example, to open websites, log onto WiFi netwroks, shop and research products on the web, and the likes. Simply run the Scanner application and point the M100 to a QR Code. You can scan in both landscape and portrait modes, and can even scan mirrored images!
To create your own QR or Bar codes we recomen using the QR Droid site located at www.qrdroid.com. The M100's scanner is based on the QR Droid software.

Mailbag - John Isner
Guest Editor - John Isner
by ATP Staff|
As guest editor of the ATP Insider, John Isner answers the best fan questions submitted on Twitter.
@bouncebckbltrx: Do you Google yourself? What's the best/worst result you've found?
I would be lying if I said 'no'. I have before. It's not something I do every day, certainly, but I have before. Sometimes I'll do it if I want to find an article maybe written about myself in the local North Carolina paper, where I'm from. For the most part, there's good things written about me on the internet, but at the same time, there's some things that aren't so nice written about me. I try not to read those.
@Arjun_Babla1: Who's the toughest opponent you've come across?
If I had to say the toughest person, it would probably be Novak Djokovic. I actually have beaten him twice, but I've lost to him five or six times. When he's on, I think he's the best player in the world; he does so many things well. There's a reason why he's back to No. 1 in the world right now.
@GiulianoInterla: Hi John, when did you start playing tennis?
I was about nine or ten years old. My parents played a little bit recreationally, but not too much. My older brother, who's three years older than me, played quite a bit and I sort of just followed in his footsteps. I would go to the local club and play against him or a back board. I had some success at the local level, then at the state level, the sectional level. I just stuck with it, eventually went to college and now I'm playing professionally.
@YasmineAlBarrak: What is your favourite NBA team?
My favourite NBA team is the Charlotte Hornets, formerly the Charlotte Bobcats. I'm a big homer of every professional sports team in the state of North Carolina.
@CJSTanner: How old were you when you got to be taller than both of your older brothers?
This is a good question! I was probably about 17 or 18 years old. That's when I started growing a lot. I always assumed I would be around my brothers' height, maybe a little bit taller than them. But I just kept on growing. My brothers are not short by any means, but I definitely tower over both of them right now.
@Cristina Criswald: Hi John, why do you like playing tennis instead of basketball?
I enjoyed both those sports. I played both tennis and basketball equally growing up, up until I was about 15 years old, when the schedules just conflicted too much. I couldn't play both, so I stuck with tennis and I think I made a pretty good decision. But at the time, I didn't necessarily love tennis more than basketball; I loved both sports equally. Obviously, I play a lot more tennis now than I do basketball.
@Sugster2257: I met your Mom at your fundraiser for #UNCLineberger. How is she doing and how has your mom affected your pro career?
She's doing fantastic. She's in remission. She's beaten the cancer. She was very strong and persevered really through some very, very tough times. She's definitely my source of inspiration, whenever things get tough on a tennis court or tough in life in general. I know that my mother has been through one of the toughest battles you can possibly go through and she overcame that. So, for me, my Mom is my hero and she always will be. I'm very thankful to have her in my corner.

Tire Fire in Wisconsin
April 22, 2013
A fire broke out at a tire recycling facility in Wisconsin on July 19, 2005. Thick plumes of black smoke spread out over a wide area. This Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image captured by the sensor on the Aqua satellite shows the smoke plume spreading over Milwaukee. A special chemical was spread over the piles of shredded tires on Friday, July 22, and according to news reports, it helped substantially in controlling the blaze. Tire fires are often very difficult to extinguish and create air and water pollutants, such as oil. For more about the environmental effects of tire fires, visit the Tire Fire Webpage of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Datsyuk's Back
by Paul on 09/05/13 at 01:30 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press,
"I go back to home, stay with friends, see family lots, but now come back to live here," Datsyuk said. "Always, summer too short. But now, forget about summer. Lots of work beginning."
It's the first time Datsyuk has been in Detroit since signing a three-year extension in late June; with a year left on his current deal, the new contract kicks in starting in 2014-15.
"I'm happy here, I enjoy this time," Datsyuk said of his decision to stay in Detroit. "Every year, better and better. I choose to sign here."
Datsyuk expressed delight about newcomers Daniel Alfredsson and Stephen Weiss, the latter of whom should facilitate that, for a change, Datsyuk will start the season on a line with Zetterberg. The two love playing together, and the Wings love being able to play them together, but past stints rarely have lasted long because the Wings needed one of them to center the second line.
"We'll see how long we last this year," Zetterberg said, smiling, "but we're excited that we'll get a chance to start again. But it's a little bit up to us, too. We have to play good."

Audio from practice at the first day of the Red Wings' prospect tournament
by George Malik on 09/05/13 at 01:24 PM ET
Comments (0)
The Red Wings' prospects spent about 45 minutes practicing ahead of tonight's game against Minnesota at the prospect tournament, mostly engaging in drills involving retrieving dump-ins, defensive positioning, breakouts, and at the end of the practice, both goalie-challenging lateral movement drills, faceoff drops for centers and some d-to-d passing and shooting with a screened player in front of the net.
Griffins coach Jeff Blashill may or may not have been kidding when he tapped me on the leg with his stick and said, "That's the best morning skate I've had in years!" but the Wings' prospects were sharp, chipper and receptive to the coaching of Blashill, Spiros Anastas, Jim Paek, Chris Chelios, Jiri Fischer and Jim Bedard, and they all seemed to be both genuinely looking forward to their three games (Minnesota tonight, Dallas tomorrow and St. Louis on Sunday) for two reasons:

St. James: Daniel Cleary may yet return to the Red Wings…Somehow…
by George Malik on 09/05/13 at 10:04 AM ET
Comments (33)
The Detroit Free Press's Helene St. James delivers some absolutely baffling news given the Red Wings' roster crunch and salary cap issues, stating that Daniel Cleary's going to start skating with the Wings today, and that the Wings are still interested in somehow bringing Cleary back into the fold:
Cleary ultimately decided he wants to stay in Detroit, and the Wings do want him back. He was their second-leading scorer in the playoffs, with 10 points in 14 games, leading the team with five points in the second-round series against Chicago.
The Wings already have 16 forwards under contract for next season and plan to carry 14. However, there are several unknowns, starting with the health of Darren Helm and Mikael Samuelsson. Both missed almost all of last season, and Helm said earlier this week he isn't yet pain-free and doesn't know whether he'll be able to take part in scrimmages when camp begins in one week. Samuelsson said he's healthy, but will he stay so?

Rare double-Cup (Calder, Stanley) appearance to take place near Grand Rapids, MI
by George Malik on 09/05/13 at 09:10 AM ET
Comments (0)
This is pretty cool: the Grand Rapids Press's Peter J. Wallner reports that the Grand Rapids suburb of Grandville, MI will be hosting both the AHL's Calder Cup and the NHL's Stanley Cup this weekend, making a rare double-appearance for charitable purposes:
The Stanley Cup, emblematic of the winner of the NHL championship, and the Calder Cup, which goes to the champions of the AHL, will be at Osgood Brewing, at 4051 Chicago Drive SW., on Saturday afternoon.
The Stanley Cup, which belongs to the Chicago Blackhawks, will be in the possession of Blackhawks equipment assistant Jim Heintzelman, who formerly worked with the Grand Rapids Griffins, and will be on site from 4-8 p.m.
The Calder Cup, making one of its many West Michigan appearances following the Griffins' first AHL championship, will arrive around 5 p.m. with host Brad Thompson, the Griffins' equipment manager.
Pictures with the cups will be available for a donation to a charity to be determined. A professional photographer will also be on hand.

About The Malik Report
The Malik Report is a destination for all things Red Wings-related. I offer biased, perhaps unprofessional-at-times and verbose coverage of my favorite team, their prospects and developmental affiliates. I've joined the Kukla's Korner family with five years of blogging under my belt, and I hope you'll find almost everything you need to follow your Red Wings at a place where all opinions are created equal and we're all friends, talking about hockey and the team we love to follow.

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Glenoid component loosening is one of the most common causes of failed total shoulder arthroplasty. Previous reports indicate that it is desirable to reimplant the glenoid component during revision shoulder arthroplasty. The purpose of our study was to retrospectively evaluate the satisfaction of patients undergoing glenoid revision (reimplantation or resection) following total shoulder replacement specifically for symptomatic glenoid loosening. Twenty-eight shoulders that developed symptomatic glenoid loosening following primary total shoulder arthroplasty were included in the study. Patients were retrospectively evaluated at a minimum of 2 years postoperatively. Patients either underwent resection followed by reimplantation of the glenoid component (13) or resection of the component with or without bone grafting (15). Each patient was evaluated with the UCLA Shoulder Scale and the Constant–Murley Shoulder Assessment. There were seven excellent, 13 good, five fair and three poor results on the UCLA score. Functional outcome scores trended higher in the reimplantation group but were not statistically significant. Both groups reported equal pain relief and satisfaction. Five out of 15 patients underwent arthroscopic resection of the glenoid, and these patients scored as well on the UCLA and Constant scores as the reimplantation group. When symptomatic glenoid loosening is the indication for revision total shoulder replacement, patients tend to achieve good to excellent results. Though functional scores were slightly higher in the reimplantation group, satisfaction was equally high in both groups. Resection, when indicated, should be performed arthroscopically as this improved functional outcome in our series.

SUDBURY — Health officials have detected Eastern equine encephalitis in a test pool of mosquitoes in Sudbury.
It's the first time the virus has been detected in mosquitoes outside of a hardwood swamp area in Whiting where there have been positive tests over the past two summers.
The mosquitoes were collected by the Agency of Agriculture on Aug. 19, and confirmed by the Health Department Laboratory on Aug. 23.

BRANDON — A family of six was displaced when an early-morning blaze destroyed their two-story, single-family home at 6 Rossiter St. in Brandon on Tuesday morning.
Brandon Fire Chief Roman Wdowiak said that the initial call came in around 6:15 a.m. The Brandon and Pittsford fire departments rushed to Rossiter Street, where Wdowiak said they observed "heavy fire and smoke on the front and side of the building."
BRANDON — The Compass Music and Arts Center honored its past earlier this summer with an emotional opening of its exhibit dedicated to the Brandon Training School.
Building K of the former Brandon Training School, which ceased operations in 1993, now houses Compass, which officially opened in June after almost two years of construction and preparation. The July 27 opening of the permanent exhibit of historical information and memorabilia marked the 20th anniversary of the closing of the training school and honored the building's past.
BRANDON — During the first two weeks of August, Otter Valley Union High School and many local host families opened their doors for 32 students and two teachers from Kunming, China. The goal of the visitors was, as head coordinator Jeff Jeskie put it, to "speak English!" The program was sponsored by Spiral International.
BRANDON — A settlement has been reached regarding a proposed medical marijuana dispensary in Brandon after neighboring landowners appealed a local permitting decision to the state's Environmental Court.
The settlement clears the way for Vermont's third permitted and licensed medical marijuana facility in a 6,700-square-foot building on Lovers Lane.
BRANDON — Compass Music and Arts Center (CMAC) invites the public to its very first concert in Brandon on Sunday, Sept. 1, at 3 p.m. This is a benefit concert to support the Compass Music and Arts Foundation, an organization dedicated to partnering with CMAC to see the arts thrive in the Brandon community and beyond.
The concert will include two very popular area singing groups: Maiden Vermont and Curbstone Chorus.
BRANDON — Boys will be boys. The adage holds true regardless of time or place, regardless of age. Tuesday afternoons at Cattails Restaurant are no exception.
Every week, a group of older men calling themselves the "Sick, Lame and Lazy Club" meet for coffee, snacks and conversation. While the location and the members have changed over time, the tradition is rooted in a history rich enough to have kept men coming back every week for nearly two decades.
BRANDON — Brandon has a budget. Voters went back to the polls for a fourth time on Tuesday and the ayes had it, 516-399.
The latest version of the municipal budget asked voters to approve a $3,147,634 spending plan, with $2,331,134 to be raised by property taxes. That amount represents a $84,084, or 3.7 percent, increase in spending over the current budget. Now that it's approved, the tax rate will increase to 71.27 cents per $100 of property value, an increase of 2.49 cents over the current rate of 68.78 cents.
BRANDON — In Brandon on Wednesday, the Vermont Department of Health will unveil its plan to combat mosquitoes and the serious illnesses they carry.
Vermont Health Commissioner Dr. Harry Chen, along with other officials from both the Heath Department and the Agency of Agriculture, will unveil the state's 2013 Arbovirus Surveillance and Response Plan at a public meeting on Wednesday, July 10, from 5-7 p.m. at the Brandon Town Hall.

Tips for Traveling With Diabetes
In this article
Insulin Injections
If you are traveling on an airplane and you need an insulin injection during your flight, follow your normal procedure -- with one difference: Put only half as much air into your insulin bottle as you normally would. The pressure is different in airplanes than on the ground.
Time zone changes of two or more hours may mean you need to change your injection schedule. Check with your doctor for special instructions.
Keep the temperature of your insulin between 33 and 80 F. Do not freeze your insulin or expose it to sunlight.
On the Road Foot Care
People with diabetes require special foot care. Follow these tips:
- Pack at least two pairs of shoes so you can change shoes often. Changing shoes helps prevent blisters and sore pressure points.
- Pack comfortable shoes, socks, and a first aid kit to treat minor foot injuries.
- Do not go barefoot. Instead, wear shoes that are specially made for ocean or beach walking. Protect your feet at all times when you are walking by the pool, in the park, on the beach, or swimming in the ocean.
- Do not wear open-toe shoes, including sandals, flip-flops, or others (you increase your risk for injury and infection when your toes are exposed).
- Follow your daily foot care regimen.
Coping With an Emergency When Out of the Country
If an emergency occurs and you do not know where to go, try to reach the American consulate, the Red Cross, or a local medical school. Learn certain phrases in the local language such as: "I need help" or "I have diabetes, where is the hospital?" or "I need sugar."
Another resource for English speakers who need to find medical assistance is the International Association for Medical Assistance to Travelers (IAMAT) (www.iamat.org). IAMAT can be reached at 716-754 4883.

Is This Normal? Get the Facts Fast!
Your level is currently
If the level is below 70 or you are experiencing symptoms such as shaking, sweating or difficulty thinking, you will need to raise the number immediately. A quick solution is to eat a few pieces of hard candy or 1 tablespoon of sugar or honey. Recheck your numbers again in 15 minutes to see if the number has gone up. If not, repeat the steps above or call your doctor.
People who experience hypoglycemia several times in a week should call their health care provider. It's important to monitor your levels each day so you can make sure your numbers are within the range. If you are pregnant always consult with your health care provider.
Congratulations on taking steps to manage your health.
However, it's important to continue to track your numbers so that you can make lifestyle changes if needed. If you are pregnant always consult with your physician.
Your level is high if this reading was taken before eating. Aim for 70-130 before meals and less than 180 two hours after meals.
Even if your number is high, it's not too late for you to take control of your health and lower your blood sugar.
One of the first steps is to monitor your levels each day. If you are pregnant always consult with your physician.

MANILA, Philippines - University of Perpetual Help, a team enjoying good run this early, guns for the solo lead on Monday when it takes on a dangerous Jose Rizal University side in the 88th NCAA basketball tournament at The Arena in San Juan.
Locked at the helm with defending champion San Beda at 4-1, the Altas shoot for a crucial win over the Heavy Bombers at 6 p.m. with coach Aric del Rosario determined to give the school owned by Antonio Tamayo a new high.
The arrival of the vintage warrior has been a blessing for Perpetual and Tamayo is hoping to sustain their magical run.
San Sebastian (3-1), meanwhile, goes for win No. 4 when it collides with Lyceum (2-4) at 4 p.m.
Perpetual's magical run surprised everybody, even Del Rosario himself.
''Hindi ko ine-expect itong hot start namin, kasi nakita ko na yung ibang teams na maglaro sa Filoil at Fr. Martin Cup, anlalakas ng mga kalaban,'' said Del Rosario, who orchestrated University of Santo Tomas' four straight championships in the UAAP in the mid-90s.
A Perpetual win will enable the Altas to surpass their win-record last year. They ended up with a woeful 5-13 mark.
Del Rosario knows how dangerous their rivals could be, given that JRU is just a game behind with a 3-1 mark, but his stalwarts, he said, are up to the challenge.
''Lahat naman ng teams malalakas eh. Nasa timpla lang yang ng players kung mananalo o hindi,'' said Del Rosario. ''Itong magandang umpisa namin, sana ma-inspire pa lalo sila at huwag na itong pakawalan.''
Leading their campaign would be Earl Thompson, who had a near triple-double feat in their 84-64 win over College of St. Benilde last Thursday with 16 points, 11 rebounds, nine assists and five steals.
Jet Vidal, who funneled 12 of his 16 points in the fourth quarter of their last game, will still remain a vital cog for the Altas.
JRU, meanwhile, is determined to rebound from its 101-78 defeat to SSC last week.

Olive Branch aldermen postpone action after second theater site is revealed
Olive Branch postpones action after second theater site revealed
An Olive Branch alderman accused a representative for a potential movie theater of playing games with elected officials and their approval process Tuesday night.
Cinema Group Inc. has two possible sites for a theater at hand. One site was before the Board of Aldermen, and the second is set for a public hearing Jan. 15.
Ambarish A. Keshani of Cinema Group sold an original site in 2008 to Malco Theatres for a seven-figure profit, saying at the time it was an offer "I couldn't resist." Malco announced this fall that after a few years delay it would resume work to build the movie theater at that site, at Goodman Road and West Hamilton Circle.
But Keshani had plans again, for a cinema at a different site, at Goodman east of Malone Road. He said his plans actually preceded Malco's announcement.
The preliminary development plan for Keshani's Goodman and Malone site was before aldermen Tuesday night. Before a vote was taken, the existence of a second site at Goodman near Pleasant Hill Road was made public.
Elected officials had been unaware until just before the meeting that Cinema Group was considering the latter site for a theater, too. The application submitted for the "Tinseltown Plaza" site only lists a theater among many permitted uses.
Hugh Armistead, an attorney representing Cinema Group who met with Mayor Sam Rikard before the meeting, recognized the concern of officials "that we might be using this board or using this process. That's not what's going on at all."
Alderman Don Tullos did not accept Armistead's statement.
"I personally think … you are playing a game," he said. "I would like you to be up front: Where do you want the theater to be? To me this is a shell game. I want to see that shell uncovered."
Armistead said Cinema Group prefers the Tinseltown site. The property is situated next to Outback Storage. To the rear is the upscale Wedgewood community.
Due to legal notification requirements, aldermen could not hear the Tinseltown proposal Tuesday night.
Armistead agreed to the idea of tabling the Goodman and Malone site and withdrawing it later if aldermen approve of the Tinseltown site. Aldermen tabled the application.
A public hearing on the Tinseltown site will be held at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 15.

|Excellent walking top
|Reviewed By Rebecca, 17 Aug 2013
I bought this top in the black colour and I think it's an excellent buy. It adds a touch of style to walking as it's a smart design (I would wear it generally, not just for walking). The material is really comfy and it washes and dries extremely quickly, and saves time in that it doesn't require ironing! It's ideal for the summer in that it's cool to wear but also has sleeves which are long enough to protect the upper part of the arms from the sun. The zip pocket on the side and the little pocket on the front are also very useful for small items. I do agree however with the other review in that a size 8 was a bit tight but the size 10 slightly too loose, but this is overall a bargain at half price for an excellent quality top! Would highly recommend.

I bought this shirt in both black and off white just last month. Gutted that they're now in the sale. However, I have worn them to work and they are super comfy and wash well. I found the 8 a bit tight and the 10 a bit loose, so seems a gap in size. Other than that they're great.

MORE than 1,000 Traveller children are forced to beg on the streets every morning.
Paul Gilligan, chief executive of the ISPCC, said yesterday: "These children have been failed by society.
"A total of 1,322 children are known to beg in Dublin on a daily basis.
"They're forced to come into the city because of the appalling conditions they live in."
The child protection group found that three quarters of all children who beg in the capital come from Traveller families.
Mr Gilligan said: "It's not in the culture of Travellers to beg for survival and it does not come naturally to them. They are forced into it.
"Child begging is a despicable breach of the rights of the child and should not be allowed to continue.
"We acknowledge as a society that the city centre isn't a safe place for adults to be in, never mind children."
The figures were released yesterday as part of the ISPCC's annual report Leanbh - Working with Children who Beg Service.
Tracey Bolger, of Leanbh, said: "The children we found on the streets ranged from infants to 18 year olds. The higher proportion fell in the eight to 12-year-old group."
The ISPCC have called on Minister for Children Brian Lenihan to tackle the problem of child begging immediately.
Ms Bolger added: "When children are on the streets they are at grave risk and prone to everything and anything thrown at them. There is constant concern that these children are being approached day-in day-out by people who do not have their best intentions at heart."
Shocking photos and video footage of the appalling conditions in which some Traveller children live were on show at the Leanbh launch yesterday.
Ms Bolger said: "This footage shows that begging is merely a symptom of the poor lifestyle. These children should be afforded the same rights as any other child." The ISPCC visited halting sites and road side homes of hundreds of Traveller families during the last year.
Ms Bolger added: "There are no safe areas for children to play in and every site we visited lacked the basic facilities needed for large groups of children."
ISPCC Childhood Support Workers found that Traveller parents were "concerned but not surprised" that their children were begging.
Ms Bolger said: "These kids are on the streets for long periods in all weather.
"They are not in a position to go to school so their right to an education is also being denied."
The Leanbh survey showed that the children begging in Dublin included 1,016 Travellers, 252 Romanians, 48 homeless and 18 others.
Ms Bolger added: "They're coming from everywhere around the city.
"We want people to challenge their prejudices about Traveller children and refugees and to see these kids as young people who should be given the same rights as any other child."
The ISPCC is to establish a day centre in the city centre in the New Year to work more closely with families who beg on a daily basis.
The group wants to initiate an accommodation support programme which will look at providing financial support to Traveller families for improving living conditions.
Leanbh said they have helped 62 children to stop begging in the last year and have provided therapeutic help to 77 children and 26 families.
HARSH MESSAGE: Paul Gilligan, of the ISPCC, at the launch of the group's annual report yesterday into child street beggars; DANGER: Begging in Dublin city centre is not safe for children

I was asked to build a theme from a successful html theme but while I have been building it, my freelance work has built up that I won't have time in the next 3 months to finish this off.
It's the Travel Guide theme here.
I am probably 30% through the theme, the home page is nearly finished, just some small features needed (pagination & fix the error I have at the moment).
I made a start on the single page but only got a little finished.
I will let you have use of my hosting that it's currently using (on a wpmu install) and can set up an ftp account. I can also zip the theme up if you wish.
The designer (MediaWorks) will get 50% of the theme funds, the other 50% is yours to keep.
If you're interested, send me a PM and I will send a link.

is there a script that changes all my expressions to absolute paths, e.g. <thisComp> converts to <comp("Comp Name")>
This way pre-composing layers with expressions would be much easier.
Can you post this question in the Expressions thread.. I know it's technically scripting, but we're trying to keep all of this stuff in one place now as a reference.
I'll answer it there.
okay, thought it would not fit in that thread. will post it there.

Rallye navigation bracket photo thread

I love the idea of the smart phone app as an affordable navigation tool. Even better (maybe a future feature) would be if it could take the new "enduro" roll chart format from Rally Navigator, and display the roadbook too!
BUT, at least with the coming Diabolical Rally, smart phones, iPads, and similar devices will not be allowed for any aspect of navigation. That's the case with Dakar too. The reason is it's too easy to use these devices to cheat. I can think of all kinds of ways to use a smart phone app to gain unfair advantage over other competitors. And I know if it's not clearly stated in the rules, someone will eventually outsmart everyone and use an electronic device to do what nobody else can do. As a race organizer, one of my jobs is to try to keep everyone on a level playing field, and keep the challenge high. And I'm super motivated to uphold the challenges that difficult navigation present. The more we let "smart" electronics into rally navigation, the more an essential part of rally is lost.
The one element of this that I'm still in favor of is if such a device was very limited in its capabilities, and were controlled and handed out by the race organization (like they do at Dakar with the special GPS unit). In that way, everyone would be assured of having the same basic tools and nobody would have advanced devices that take the challenge away from rally navigation.
I also think it could be great for those just coming into rally. As an affordable tool for practicing on "play" routes it seems perfect!

Discrete symmetry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a discrete symmetry is a symmetry that describes non-continuous changes in a system. For example, a square possesses discrete rotational symmetry, as only rotations by multiples of right angles will preserve the square's original appearance. Discrete symmetries sometimes involve some type of 'swapping', these swaps usually being called reflections or interchanges. In mathematics and theoretical physics, a discrete symmetry is a symmetry under the transformations of a discrete group—e.g. a topological group with a discrete topology whose elements form a finite or a countable set.

The Truth About the Sheba Farms
DAMASCUS, Syria -- There has been a lot of talk in the international community, and in Syria and Lebanon in particular, about the status of the disputed Sheba Farms. The small area, made up of 14 farms spread out over 25 square kilometers, has been occupied by Israel since 1967. The governments of Syria and Lebanon insist that Sheba is Lebanese, while Israel and the U.N. claim that it belongs to Syria, since it was under the jurisdiction of Syria at the time of its occupation in the Arab-Israeli War of 1967. (Lebanon, after all, was not even involved in the Six Day War.)
Some contend that the intense dispute over Sheba arises out of a fabrication by former Syrian President Hafez al-Asad months before his passing in June 2000, when it became clear to him that the Israelis were about to leave South Lebanon. Supporters of this argument claim that Asad created the idea of Sheba belonging to Lebanon to justify the continuation of a militant Hizbullah in Lebanon. If all Lebanese land was seen to have been liberated from Israeli occupation, after all, it would have been very difficult for Hizbullah to maintain support among the Lebanese public for maintaining its arms. And for Asad, Hizbullah's arms were important because they were the main instrument of his own proxy war with Israel. ...

NY county fighting with feds over housing and race
But the way Astorino sees it, "You can live where you can afford to live. I can't live on the block in Chappaqua where the Clintons live. I don't have the economic means."
The lawsuit was settled before Astorino, a surprise Republican winner in the increasingly Democratic county, took office at the start of 2010.
Gurian's group had alleged that for several years, the county failed to meet the requirements of accepting funds from HUD, including analyzing obstacles to fair housing. The county settled after the Justice Department intervened.
Democrat Andrew Spano, then the county executive, agreed that Westchester would build or acquire 750 units of affordable housing over the next seven years - mostly in its whitest towns and villages - and make sure they were marketed to non-whites in the region, including New York City.
With 72 units already occupied and 207 units with financing in place, the county is meeting its construction deadlines. But the settlement also called for the county executive to promote a bill that would prohibit landlords from rejecting tenants who use Section 8 government subsidies to help pay their rent.
"The source of income of an individual is often used to deny them housing," Trasvina said. "Quite frankly, it's often used as a proxy for race or national origin."
Astorino vetoed it instead, noting that Section 8 is a voluntary program.
"The federal government should not and cannot force an individual to give up their personal and property rights," Astorino said.
He claimed his predecessor had fulfilled the "promote" requirement. But Judge Denise Cote, who approved the original settlement, called Astorino's veto "an unambiguous breach" of the agreement.
Astorino is appealing.
HUD and the federal monitor, attorney James E. Johnson, also say Westchester has failed to properly analyze barriers to fair housing, including zoning rules, as required in the settlement. And it hasn't submitted any plan for fighting such barriers.
The county's analysis asserted that there are no barriers because every municipality's zoning has some provision for multifamily housing. That analysis, however, didn't get into the racial or ethnic composition of zoning districts, which Trasvina called "the heart of the matter."
He said even if multifamily housing is permitted, strict limits on it can affect fair housing.
Johnson demanded a new analysis but rejected that one, too. In papers supporting the motion filed Friday, he said the county's report "failed to provide a legal basis, facts or analysis that would adequately support its conclusion that exclusionary zoning did not exist."
Ned McCormack, a spokesman for Astorino, said Friday night that the motion was "another example of HUD trying to bully the county."
Though no other HUD dispute is quite like Westchester's, the agency has comparable cases working in Marin County, Calif., and St. Bernard's Parish, La.
The agency and the monitor have also said that some of Westchester's housing, while approved toward the 750 requirement, amounts to "missed opportunities" to desegregate. A low-rise 22-unit complex under construction in mostly-white Rye is right on the border of Port Chester, a heavily Hispanic village, and somewhat cut off from Rye's better neighborhoods by highways.

Oklahoma... He lost to Clayton Foster..
Oklahoma... He lost to Clayton Foster..
Was this scratch weight? A good chunk of the OSU lineup has questions about maintaining their weight, so I wonder we they weighed in at.
Fernandez is from Lawton, OK. I believe he beat Tucker Lane from Nebraska last year. 197 and 285 were the strongest weights in the Big 5 last year. Fernandez looks leaner than he did last year. He was quicker and scrambled better than Rosholt in the finals match. Finn could wrestle and place high in D1.
Fernandez ended up losing to a kid from OCU this week.

Renton City Library Location Question (August 2012)
A Renton City Library Location Question was on the August 7, 2012 ballot in the city of Renton which is in King County.
The choice to stay at the current downtown location was approved
- Cedar River Location 6,903 (76.13%)
- Renton Piazza Location 2,164 (23.87%)[1]
This measure asked residents to choose one of two locations for the downtown library. The choices was either to stay at the current location or another location, a former Big 5 Sporting Goods store. Since the choice is for the library to remain at its current downtown location, it will be completely refurbished and made state of the art, with new technology, renovated facilities and new inventory. The cost to renovate the library at its current location will be around $10.1 million while renovating the Big 5 store to house the library would have been around $9.3 million.[2]
Text of measure
The question on the ballot:
|After Renton voters chose to join King County Library System (KCLS), Renton contracted with KCLS to provide a state of the art library in downtown Renton. The library will be located at EITHER the existing library location over the Cedar River (100 Mill Ave. South), OR West of the Renton Piazza (508 South 3rd Street). If the Piazza site is chosen, Renton will keep the existing library building for alternative public use in the future. Which location should be the site of the downtown library?[3][4]

When we created the first issue of Federal Computer Week in 1987, we worked on articles by passing files back and forth on floppy disks. Today, the technology has changed so dramatically that the early days seem like something out of "The Flintstones."
But some things haven't changed. As we went through 25 years of issues, we realized that although the concerns have morphed a bit, the government is still struggling to address the challenges we highlighted in our first issues: security, budgets, acquisition/procurement rules, ethics, the role of contractors, and how to attract and keep talented employees.
For instance, various attempts to grade how agencies were doing with their security efforts led to some interesting hearings on Capitol Hill but didn't change much about how such efforts were funded and implemented. For years, every time we asked agency executives what their biggest concern was, they said security, but when we asked about spending priorities, security came in third or fourth. Only in the past few years has that ranking changed as cyberattacks have grown more sophisticated.
We find similar recurring patterns with ethics regulations, which are designed to protect the procurement process but often succeed in shutting down communications instead.
In this issue, we highlight some of the people, policies and technologies that have influenced federal IT in the past 25 years. Although it is not possible to include all the dynamic and dedicated people who have been or still are a part of this marketplace, we start with some who have left their mark.
We are proud to have shared the past 25 years with our readers and look forward to a vibrant future.
