Take Action: Tell FDA to Remove Triclosan from Consumer Products
(Beyond Pesticides, June 9, 2014) Triclosan, the antibacterial pesticide found in numerous hand soaps, toothpastes, and other cosmetics, has had a ubiquitous presence on the consumer market for over 30 years. But due to public pressure led by Beyond Pesticides, our allies, and concerned supporters, many manufacturers have been washing their hands of triclosan. Now […]

I haven't voted yet, but I plan to, I just wanted to point out a problem with the # of match ups. You only have 30 guys that would leave an odd man out in the next round (there will be 15 winners, I guess you could give Ruth a bye and move him automatically into round 3).

Forgot one - and this may have been subliminal that I did this.
Cobb vs. Rose... aren't they the same self centered jerk, only from different eras?
Ok, if I have to go for Cobb, based on his .366 lifetime batting average.

Greatest Baseball player Round 1
OK - My picks with commentary
1. Babe Ruth - this one is very reluctant simply due to my unabashed worship of the Wizard. I am just mad Ozzie had to face Ruth so early. I would put him up against Maddux, Ripken and A-Rod. There was no equal to him on the defensive side of the game while he played, and those who watched him, know that he always came through when it mattered the most ('85 NLCS comes to mind!). Ruth is going to go far here, but in my opinion, playing during an era before the game was integrated will hurt when it comes to measuring the greatest of all time.
2. Willie Mays - I think a solid argument could be made that Mays is by far the best five tool player that ever existed. His final years are not going to help, but that could be said about anyone, with the exception of one (hint - his initials are RC).
4. Ted Williams - While I abhor giving any Red Sox cred, the splendid splinter is the last man to hit .400, in 1941. He also ended a long, consistent career with a home run in his final at bat.
5. Hank Aaron - While known as an offensive force, he could contend with Mays in every facet of the game, including base running. He not only was able to beat Ruth's career home run record unaided, he did it with class, grace and ridiculous and unfair pressure.
6. Nolan Ryan - Unfortunately, this is not a fair comparison, again mainly due to the segregation that Gibson had to endure for the majority of his career. You have to wonder if he had been given a fair chance, whether he truly could have been #1 on the list. With that stated, no one has put more fear in the hearts of opposing major league batters (and thrown more no hitters) than Mr. Ryan. I have to move him forward.
7. Mickey Mantle - Again, no upsets here. Seaver was a great pitcher for both the Mets and Reds, but Mantle beats him simply on statistics. I think Mantle is going to run into trouble later on due to the struggles he faced post 1961, but for now, he moves on.
For the next one, I'll leave it up to the stats (Courtesy of the baseball-reference.com)...
Wagner - 21 Seasons, 10430 at bats. 3415 Hits, .327 BA. .466 Slg %
Robinson - 10 Seasons, 4877 at bats, 1518 hits, .311 BA, .474 Slg%
Ok, stats don't help much on this one. I will go with my gut and say...
23. Jackie Robinson - In my first upset of the day, I think that I have to go with #42. While Wagner is no slouch and well deserved to be one of the first inductees into the BBHOF, for Robinson to put up the numbers and success in the environment he faced, I have to go there.
9. Lou Gehrig - Sorry to say it but, I don't think Mike Schmidt has a movie made yet about him called 'Pride of the Phillies'. Even outside the consecutive games played streak that Gehrig owned for multiple decades, the stats, while close, lean in Lou's direction.
Gehrig - 17 seasons, 2721 hits, 534 2Bs, 163 3Bs, 493 HRs, .340 BA, .632 Slg%
Schmidt - 18 seasons, 2234 hits, 408 2Bs, 59 3Bs, 548 HRs, .267 BA, .527 Slg %
10 . Joe DiMaggio - I feel like I am getting too Yankee centric here, which is definitely not my style! However, DiMaggio clearly had a far more dynamic career from top to bottom. I think Maddux, while impressive statistically, had captured a few more titles, this may have been an argument. I would rather have compared Maddux to Gaylord Perry or Warren Spahn, two pitchers who are more similar in character.
11. Walter Johnson - This is another one of those unfair comparisons. It is just a shame that I can't compare the full careers of Paige and Big Train. However, Johnson's 417 wins is unequaled by anyone but...
12. Cy Young - You can't dismiss the guy that won 511 games and they named the pitching award after, can you?
13. Stan Musial - In the misspelling category (Sandy Koufax), I have to move Musial on by a thin margin. Both players were exceptional and keys to championship teams, but Koufax's injury shortened career is the difference.
14. Barry Bonds- I know. I know. This one could take some heat. But the reality is that had the man not sold out to the wonders of BALCO, he would've been in this conversation anyway. Take away the 'roids and you are still are talking about a guy (while admittedly a jerk of a guy) with 500+ HRs and 500+ stolen bases. While defense and lack of championships will eventually be his downfall, he still deserves to move on.
15. Roberto Clemente - Clemente is Mays' rival in all facets of the game, Clemente hit .317 for his 18 year career, won 11 Gold Gloves and a critical component to the Pirates two World Series titles in 1960 and 1971. Amazingly, Clemente was playing as good as ever at 38, hitting .312 in his final season in 1972, prior to his tragic death. And I don't think any one can dispute his influence on today's game, especially when you look at the number of players from Latin America and Caribbean that were directly or indirectly influenced by his achievements.

Justin Bieber's new song 'Heartbreaker' is here and in it, he lays his cards face up on the table. This is the sad, vulnerable Biebs, which is a change of pace for him, especially since we're used to him being the cocky, heatseeking missile of pop music. He is The Biebs and everyone loves him. But make no mistake. He is not immune to heartache, and he doesn't want to be called "the heartbreaker."
Britney Spears' single 'Work Bitch' leaked a day ahead of its planned release. The verdict is in -- it's Britney, b---h. It's a club banger, too. If you want a mansion or a Maserati or any of the luxuries in life, you better put your nose to the grindstone and work, b---h.

ok, this could not have been easier. The part just snaps into place, so no tools were needed. However! Partselect saved me an hour-long drive and a couple of bucks. I called the 800 number on the fridge ID tag, and was all set to drive 45 miles to the nearest Frigidaire dealer in Fayetteville for the part. Then I decided to check online. Partselect had the part and it cost about $2 less. There was no doubt it was the right part because they provide what appears to be the engineer's sketch of the fridge or the actual diagram from the owner's manual (which we do not have). Anyrate, it arrived 2 days later. Why aren't all repairs this easy?!

I'm only posting this to point out an inaccurate statement in this article:
Yahoo! Finance - Business Finance, Stock Market, Quotes, News
She goes on to talk about some washer, Vizio TV's, some appiances and Lumix camera's.In my family, there's a grand old tradition in which we threaten to fill each others' Christmas stockings with coal -- the implication being that we've all been very wicked. But I'm starting to think that coal isn't a bad gift at all. For one thing, it lasts forever. And while it doesn't play mp3s or grate carrots three different ways, coal never requires obscure replacement parts available only through membership in a secret society.
Of course, what we're really talking about here is the frustrations of those perennial holiday gifts: gadgets and appliances. Lately, device makers seem to be outdoing each other in their creative approaches to planned obsolescence. Roaming store aisles, it's easy to come up with a list of gifts that qualify as the new lump of coal:
But my beef is this bit about the PS3:
Uhm, my PS3 remote takes AA batteries and they have yet to run out. My guess is the reporter has some kind of Sony bias.Sony PlayStation 3
It's all fun and games until the battery dies. Unlike its competitors, which use replaceable AA batteries, the PS3's remote control is glued shut. When the battery goes, Sony customers have to blow $55 on a new controller. Sony says there's an "environmental benefit" since gamers don't have to toss their batteries on a regular basis, but Isidor Buchmann, president of battery-equipment maker Cadex Electronics, says captive batteries are becoming common because it's cheaper for companies to eliminate the battery housing and hatch.
And the thing about the Vizio TV's is also a joke. If your TV breaks a year after you get it, you don't take it to the store. You have to go back to the manufacturer.

Army officials cancel recruitment rally in Kurnool
The Samaikyandhra movement, which has been continuing for the last two-and-a-half months in different ways in Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema districts, has showed its impact on Indian Army recruitment in Andhra Pradesh.
The Indian Army had plans of recruiting for different categories including soldier (general duty), soldier (technical, nursing assistant), soldier (medical assistant, clerk, store keeper and tradesman), HAV (surveyor auto cartographer, engineers), JCO (religious teacher and food management) and havildar education, from Secunderabad, Guntur and Visakhapatnam Army Recruiting Offices (AROs).
But the officials cancelled the process scheduled to be held from October 17 to 25 due to unfavourable conditions like poor security and transportation, erratic power supply and others created by the ongoing bandhs and strikes for united State.
Responding to a query, Col. Afsar Abbas Jafri, Director of Recruiting (Guntur) said: "Response to Army recruitment is always good and we end up getting around 50,000 applications every six months for different categories below the rank of officers. The Indian Army recruits nearly 1,500 soldiers from Guntur Army Recruiting Office (ARO) in each phase. Likewise, the other two offices in the State recruit soldiers by conducting rallies. But this time's recruitment has been put off as it is difficult to conduct rallies during turbulent times."
Elaborating further, Col. Jafri said that the quota allotted to Andhra Pradesh was 3,000 jobs. But due to the cancellation of recruitment rallies, the State has lost its share. "We are making all efforts to preserve our quota. However, the status of the jobs would be decided in January 2014," he said.
Meanwhile, Army recruitment scheduled to be held in Kurnool, for which all the arrangements were in place, was cancelled as officials expressed inability to conduct the rally due to Samaikyandhra agitations.

BIR collected P88.76B in June, 11.7% off target
popular .
The government missed its tax collection target for June amid an across-the-board slowdown in collections from small and large taxpayers, the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) said Monday.
The state tax agency likewise said revenue from non-BIR operations, or taxes collected from the issuance of government securities, fell 16.4 percent in the first half.
For the month of June, the BIR collected P88.76 billion in taxes, P7.42 billion or 9.12 percent more than collections made in June 2012. The growth was slower than the 18.35-percent increase recorded the month before.
As a result, the BIR's collections missed the P100.5-billion collection target for the month by 11.7 percent.
Collections by the regional offices amounted to P31.53 billion, some P3.5 billion or 12.48 percent more than the collections made in June 2012. Meanwhile, collections by the BIR's Large Taxpayers Service amounted to P54.75 billion, or P3.87 billion (7.61 percent) higher than the collections made a year ago.
Collections by the BIR of excise taxes on so-called sin products for the first semester of 2013 amounted to P38.54 billion, P12.15 billion or 46.06 percent more than the collections made in the first six months of 2012.
Excise tax collection from tobacco products amounted to P22.38 billion, an increase of P7.77 billion or 53.14 percent. Excise tax collection from alcohol products amounted to P16.16 billion, also up by P4.39 billion or 37.27 percent.
The BIR, which is the government's main revenue-generating agency, is tasked to collect P1.25 trillion in taxes this year, up 17.59 percent from the 2012 performance.
This takes into account the P34 billion in additional revenues from higher taxes on alcohol and tobacco products that took effect this year. The BIR's 2013 goal is based on a gross domestic product (GDP) growth forecast of 6 percent for the year.

NFL: Cleveland Browns appoint Mike Pettine as successor to Rob Chudzinski

Mike Pettine: New head coach of the Cleveland Browns

Bet with Sky Bet
The Cleveland Browns have named Mike Pettine as their new coach.
Pettine has spent the past five years as a defensive coordinator, working with Buffalo last season after four seasons on the staff of the New York Jets.
The 47-year-old replaces Rob Chudzinski, who was axed after the Browns stumbled to a 4-12 record this term.
"Mike is the epitome of what we want the Browns to be: tough, aggressive and innovative with a blue-collar, team-first mentality," said Browns owner Jimmy Haslam.
"Most importantly, Mike has repeatedly shown the ability to lead his players to consistent improvement and success, clearly what we are striving for."
Pettine, who also spent seven years as an assistant coach with the Baltimore Ravens, guided defensive units to top-10 rankings in total defense in all five of his seasons as a defensive coordinator.
His aggressive system in Buffalo last season saw the Bills set a club record with 57 sacks, second most in the NFL.
"Our players and fans are going to really enjoy Mike Pettine and his leadership style," Browns chief executive Joe Banner said. "We're excited to have him out in front of our team."

Even cheesy stock classroom photos may soon feature iPad Minis (original: Shutterstock)
Article Summary
Apple loves education. If you were a child of the 80s or 90s, there's a good chance your school had a healthy supply of Macs or Apple IIs. In recent years, though, many schools have shifted to cheaper Windows PC vendors like Dell and HP. The iPad has given Apple an avenue back into schools, but the company's big return to schools may come from tomorrow's introduction of the iPad Mini.

Bright colors, interesting textures and unique host plants make caterpillars interesting and their remarkable life cycles make them even more so. They can be fuzzy, spiny or smooth or fat, skinny or bumpy. They can also look like just about anything, including tiny snakes and bird droppings. One thing is for certain - you're never quite sure what they'll turn into.
One of my favorites is the calleta silkmoth (eupackardia calleta), because the caterpillar resembles a Pixar character. It is bright lime green with varying orange, yellow and blue spots with a black spikey apex.
The caterpillar emerges from eggs laid in rows or clusters on various host plants including ceniza (leucophyllum frutescens), ash (fraxinus), Mexican jumping bean (sapium biloculare) and ocotillo (fouquieria splendens). I've even seen them happily chowing down on yellow bells or esperanza (tecoma stans)
The tiny caterpillar emerges from the egg, but with a voracious appetite it quickly outgrows its skin (exoskeleton). As the caterpillar grows, it goes through several stages, shedding its skin each time.
Each stage is referred to as an "instar." By the time the calleta silkmoth caterpillar reaches the fifth instar, it is as large as your thumb.
Throughout each stage, or instar, the caterpillar bulks up on purple sage leaves or other host plants before eventually attaining its final stage as a caterpillar - the cocoon. The caterpillar spins a silk peduncle, attaches it to a stem and then creates a solid, opaque cocoon.
On the plant, the cocoon looks like a little brown paper sack. Once snug inside, the caterpillar begins its transformation. However, conditions must be just right before the moth will emerge. If conditions are not favorable, it may spend up to two years in the cocoon.
The calleta silkmoth has a beautifully tragic life cycle. In South Texas, it has two seasons, or broods, which occur from September through November and then again from March through April. The adult moths work their way out of their cocoons in the evening.
They look pretty bedraggled at first, with damp, crinkled wings and a fattened body. They find a spot to dry out and stretch out their wings and, when morning comes, they begin to transmit signals to attract a mate.
By the end of the same day, the female lays her eggs in clumps on host plants.
The adult moths lack a digestive system. They don't eat and this graceful beauty has a sole purpose - starting a new generation as quickly as possible.
The adult lifespan of the calleta silkmoth is not gauged in months or weeks, but in hours. It is therefore critical that they find a mate and breed in the few short hours before they expire.
The adult calleta silkmoth is a true beauty. Its exotic markings include red patches on the collar and rear of the thorax.
Wing patterns are marked with burgundy, blue and shades of brown. Triangular white spots on the wings range from large to almost absent.
The most striking attribute of the calleta silkmoth is its size. With a wingspan of nearly five inches, it is almost as large as one's hand.

6 Americans, 1 Brit vanish at sea
Six Americans have been missing at sea for more than three weeks after setting sail from New Zealand, officials said Thursday.
Three males -- aged 17, 28 and 58 -- and three women -- aged 18, 60 and 73 -- along a 35-year-old British man were aiming to sail the 70-foot schooner Nina to Newcastle, Australia.
A statement from Maritime New Zealand released early Thursday expressed "grave concerns" for the Nina's crew.
The vessel left the Bay of Islands area of northern New Zealand on May 29. It has not been heard from since June 4, when the ship was 370 miles west-north west of Cape Reinga in "very rough" conditions with winds gusting to 68 mph and 26-foot swells.
Authorities said the vessel's emergency beacon has not been activated.
Rescue Coordination Centre New Zealand search and rescue mission coordinator Kevin Banaghan said that a military aircraft had covered a 160,000 square nautical mile search area on Tuesday, with an additional 324,000 square nautical miles examined on Wednesday.
"No sign of the vessel has been found," Banaghan said. "We do hold grave concerns for the Nina and her crew but remain hopeful of a positive outcome."
The huge search was launched after family and friends raised concerns about the crew's whereabouts.
The Nina was built in 1928. It is also equipped with a satellite phone and a spot beacon, which allows tracking signals to be sent manually.

"There are two of them!" My daughter-in-law was trotting towards the house, her grin leading the way. She was tickled pink at the sight of twin calves in the pasture. Wayne, however, didn't share her enthusiasm as he crawled out of the cab of the truck. Lacy is new to dairy farming, but Wayne knows that twins on a dairy farm aren't the harbinger of good news. His reaction tempered her enthusiasm, but only a little. He handed me the bag of nails he had went to town for, and he and Lacy headed to the dry-cow pasture to have a look at the new arrivals.
Twin births in dairy cattle aren't rare enough to warrant a camera crew, but they don't happen all that often, which is good. Twin calves come with fertility problems ranging from reduced fertility to sterility due to anatomically abnormal reproductive organs. For dairy farmers, this is exactly the sort of problem they don't need. Twins on a dairy farm are a bane, not a boon.
As twin (or triplet) fetuses begin to develop and grow in the cow's womb, their placentas can touch. The joining of placentas between two male or two female fetuses doesn't present much of a problem. While it's likely that their fertility rate will be lower than others in the herd, it won't be a complete wash. You wouldn't use the males for breeders anyway, and the net result for the heifers will be nothing more than an extra cycle before a pregnancy occurs. Sometimes, a twin cow will have issues breeding back after she calves. While decreased fertility certainly isn't welcome, it's not nearly as bad as sterility, which is exactly what you have most of the time with male/female births.
Veterinary experts from the State University of New York at Canton claim that when a twin pregnancy occurs, the result will be a male/female pair 43% of the time. The female twin of a cow/calf pair is called a freemartin. Freemartins are sterile 92% of the time.
Most large producers just ship male/female pairs off to the beef auction. However, if you end up with a male/female pair, and you're a glass-half-full sort of person, there are ways to tell if your female is a heifer or a freemartin.
If the female passes the initial exam, the next step is to confirm that she has a reproductive tract. Freemartins have short vaginas. Even if all appears normal from the outside, an internal examination is a must. Measure the length by gently inserting a lubricated 100x15mm test tube into the vagina. The lubricated tube should slide freely upward for a few inches before slanting in a more downward direction with no resistance, just a change of direction. If the tube doesn't slide in more than a couple of inches, you most likely have a freemartin. (Both the test tube and lubricant are readily available where veterinarian supplies are sold.)
After passing a physical, there's one more test that can determine whether or not you are the proud owner of a fertile heifer. The Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at the University of Minnesota tests blood samples to determine if suspected freemartins are actually breeding heifers. The calf must be at least two-weeks old. The cost is $61 and takes two-to-seven days to get results. For information on how to submit samples to the lab, visit www.vdl.umn.edu/ourservices/otherpcr/home.html, or call 612-625-8787.
In addition to the fertility conundrum, twins complicate the birthing process. "Depending on how the twins are placed, there can be all kinds of birthing issues. If there are separate placentas, the calves can get tangled in the umbilical cords and strangle," explains Wayne.
"After calving with twins, there's a real problem with retained placentas and milk fever; there's also a greater chance for ketosis with twin births. There may not be enough colostrum for both. Cows take longer to recover from a twin birth. It just sucks the energy right out of them. If she ends up with ketosis after twins there's a greater chance of a displaced abomasum (DA). If she goes off feed, there's nothing to stabilize her stomach. There's already a huge void where the calves used to be, and now her stomach is empty too. It's not long before you have a twisted stomach."
A couple of years ago, one of our cows, a Brown Swiss named Swiss Miss, died after calving with twins. Both calves struggled to be born at once, entangling their legs and requiring manual repositioning. Wayne knew there was a huge problem when he saw three legs, and advises those who don't have experience with complicated birthing situations to call a veterinarian. Swiss Miss suffered a retained placenta, had damage to her uterus, and came down with milk-fever. After two weeks of a lukewarm recovery, she came down with ketosis and didn't recover.
"She was an older, heavier cow," explains Wayne. "I'm pretty sure a normal pregnancy would have been no problem for her, but she was in no shape for twins. Too bad I didn't have the vet do an ultrasound on her. You can't tell just by looking at the cow whether or not she's carrying twins. She could be carrying a large bull calf and be huge, or she could be carrying two small female calves and be a normal size. Looks are deceiving."
This time, Wayne did have the veterinarian do an ultrasound, but she didn't pick up the twin. While veterinary technology has come a long way, Mother Nature still pulls off a surprise now and then.
Wayne advises all cow owners to keep a couple bottles each of calcium and dextrose on hand to treat cows after complicated births. "If she comes down with milk-fever, it'll be within five days of calving. I give her 750ml of a 23% calcium solution intravenously. You can put the calcium solution under the skin, but it takes longer to get into her system. If you put it in a vein, she is better in a matter of minutes. Cows can also come down with ketosis a couple of weeks after a hard birth. They just run out of energy. For ketosis I give 500ml of dextrose in a vein. Dextrose has to be in the vein, not under the skin, to work."
"You should keep calcium and dextrose on hand, even if you don't know how to administer them," he cautions. "If you have to call the vet, they'll charge you if they have to use their own supplies. If you have some available, they'll use yours. It's cheaper."
Unlike our previous experience with twins, this delivery went fine. Lizzie recovered nicely and continues to graze contentedly. Wayne sold the male twin, but after much cajoling from Lacy, he decided to keep the female. Her name is Hope, and Wayne plans to have our veterinarian examine her during the next scheduled herd health visit. He thinks Hope is a breeding heifer. If the vet agrees, he'll have her send a blood sample to University of Minnesota to find out for sure. Granted, there's only an 8% chance that she's not a freemartin, but around here, the glass is always half-full of frothy whole milk, chilled to perfectionand there's always more where that came from.

Making Liberalism Work: The Italian Experience, 1860-1914
By most accounts, Italian-style liberalism failed. Explanations for its failure vary from economic backwardness or a political culture shaped by autocracy to claims that liberals ruined their chances by pursuing nothing but narrow middle-class interests. This study examines the liberal record to weigh the accuracy of these approaches.

This project-oriented course leads you through the creative and technical process of building an opening title sequence from scratch in Adobe After Effects. Author Chris Meyer shows how to pull together numerous skills you've learned in the other After Effects Apprentice courses, from working in 3D space to creating type and shape layers to writing expressions. Along the way, Chris lets you in on the mental process he uses when creating similar spots for real-world clients, while sharing numerous tips that will help broaden your After Effects skills.
The After Effects Apprentice videos on lynda.com were created by Trish and Chris Meyer and are designed to be used on their own and as a companion to their book After Effects Apprentice. We are honored to host these tutorials in the lynda.com library.
When you are trying to create a unified design, it's really important to identify what are your major elements of your design and make sure you stay true to those elements throughout all of your work. In this case, we've created some nice rounded edges on our video frames. We've created some nice rounded circles on the background, but our video insets have squared off rectangular edges. To tie those in better with a design, it maybe better if those corners were indeed rounded, so I am going to go to one of my video pre-comps, choose my Jogging layer, change to the Rounded Rectangle tool to create rounded edges, and carefully line up my Mask tool with the upper left corner and drag out until I carefully enclosed this entire video.
Now important thing with Mask shapes is that once you release your mouse, you're stuck with those points. You can edit those points but it's not as easy as just changing a roundness parameter for a shape layer. So before you release your mouse, use your up and down cursor keys to change the amount of rounding that you have. I am going to use the down cursor to reduce the amount of rounding until it seems to better compliment my video frame, maybe around there, then release the mouse to ensure that your mask is indeed going exactly to the edges of the video, I am going to twirl-open the Mask Parameters, click on the mask path shape, change my pop-up from the normal pixels to % of source and make sure my left and top start at 0%, my right and bottom go to 100%.
That will adjust my Mask to be exactly centered on my video. Another design element I had going is a bit of softness. I've added a little bit of soft bevel to this frame. I've added a Drop Shadow on the later composition. I might want to slightly feather the Mask around this video, so I just try a small amount, it's kind of hard to see with a Mask visibility turned on, so I'll turn that off and then change my Feather so I've got just a slightly softened look. Now the problem with Mask Feather is that it is centered along your Mask edge which means it is half feathered in and half feathered out, and as a result, half of my feather is getting chopped off by the size of the video.
To counteract that I am going to go ahead and bring in my Mask expansion ever so slightly, -1 or -2 pixels so that my Feather goes cleanly to my edge and maybe even reduce my Feather amount to taste, maybe somewhere around say 2.0 pixels. Once I have a Mask that I like, there is no need to go manually recreate it for my other layers, I'll just select it, copy it, go to my extra videos and just select paste to those as well. That will save me a lot of time.
Now for my final Hero video, it is a considerably larger piece of video and just pasting the exact same parameters to it may not look right, for example the Mask size is too small. So I'll need to recreate the Mask for this layer from scratch. I'll go up to the edges, drag on my Mask to be pretty closely to the edges of my original video, give it maybe a little bit more rounding to match this larger video frame, twirl-open the Mask, Shape, % of source, make sure I go out to the edges of my video, 0 and 100, give it just a little bit of Feather of say 2 or 3 pixels and a little bit of negative mask expansion to shrink it in, so that my Feather cleanly goes out to the edges of that video.
Now on the Final Comp, these elements have rounded edges and just tie in the design of it better, make it more cohesive.

Obituary: Allan Bailey; Business professor, dean dedicated to SDSU
But medical tests revealed something worse: a rare and usually fatal cancer of the bile duct had caused his liver to nearly shut down. Still, his only concession to the disease through months of radiation and chemotherapy was to reduce his work hours by one-fourth. He retired Nov. 30.
Even as he weakened in the weeks before Christmas, his wife said, Mr. Bailey kept his zest for life.
"I would prop him up on his pillows in bed," she said. "He would sit up and say, 'Nancy Bailey, I love you!' "
Mr. Bailey is survived by his wife, Nancy; his son, Todd, of Huntington Beach; his daughter, Erin Henderson of Alpine; his father, Ace, of San Diego; a sister, Patricia, of San Diego; and five grandchildren.
Mr. Bailey's remains were cremated and his ashes will be scattered later, Nancy Bailey said. A celebration of his life also will be held at San Diego State later this month, but no date has been set.
Memorial donations may be made to the A.R. Bailey Dean's Endowment Fund at SDSU and sent to The Campanile Foundation, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, 92182-8035. More information about Mr. Bailey is available on the family Web site: caringbridge.org/visit/allanbailey.
San Diego real estate developer Mark McMillin – an SDSU graduate and a member of The Campanile Foundation board – recently donated $500,000 to name the library at the SDSU Alumni Center in Mr. Bailey's honor. Steve Liewer: (619) 498-6632; firstname.lastname@example.com

Luxury Travel Sees Growth Despite Recession
October 17, 2009 phamha 0
Spain's great coastal city Barcelona hosted the annual ABTA Travel Convention in the first week of October.
A variety of key panelists, travel experts, distinguished speakers and an international audience of professionals and agents created a successful and flourishing event.
The Travel Convention spoke to the future of luxury travel, with an overall consensus of success and positivity.
Despite the ongoing recession which has had a well documented negative effect upon the travel industry, a number of luxury operators have recorded increases in revenue by up 30 per cent.
Luxury travel companies are predicting an upturn in business in 2010– but expect to deal with a markedly different customer, according to a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers.
Internet-savvy deal hunters who will not stint on cost but do demand value for money will be the norm in 2010, the report, released at this year's Abta Travel Convention stated.
It also found that luxury tour operators have managed to maintain margins and market share despite the economic downturn.
Guy Gillon, leisure director, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, said:
"The vast majority of businesses expect trading conditions to improve in 2010.
"Luxury is chartering a new course through these turbulent trading times with a resourceful and deal savvy consumer requiring value for money.
"Despite being a big ticket item – this consumer preference has partially insulated luxury travel operators from the discretionary spend cull felt elsewhere in the market."
In a survey of more than 7,000 luxury club members when asked what items they would cut back on during the recession, only 18% cited their main holiday, which fell ninth in the selection behind designer labels, electronics, and restaurant meals.
And only a fifth of respondents said they would downgrade to a cheaper destination despite the squeeze on their investments.
In a similar survey, polling all demographics, 41% said they would cut back on holidays and weekends away first. Holidays came second only to dining and nights out.
"The difficult economic climate has led all customer demographics to reassess their travel habits," said Gillon.
"The high net worth individuals and ABs are not moving to packaging or changing length of stay, but they are utilising the internet to scour the landscape for the right deal and right location at the right price.
"While some of these changes may be temporary the 'buying clever' trend is here to stay," he added.
"To make it to the finish line, luxury travel businesses need to improve and develop their online presence and increase their portfolio of products in 2010," he stated.
Luxury Travel Company announces their best selling luxe tour package titled 'the best of the best Vietnam 18 days' upon this tour has been launched in September 2009. The tour can be booked at last minute, and each day on tour can be customized to suit individual interests, energy and schedules.
Vietnam has established its reputation as a unique and genuine Southeast Asian experience. And now, there is ample opportunity to explore it in style and luxury.

Man lived in US illegally before killing CA family
FRESNO, Calif. A former Indian army officer lived in the U.S. illegally for at least five years before he killed his wife, two children and himself in Central California last weekend, federal immigration officials said.
Avtar Singh, who was wanted for murder in his homeland, had been arrested by U.S. investigators for unlawful presence in July 2007, Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Lori Haley told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
Singh was "subsequently placed in removal proceedings. At the time of his death, ICE Homeland Security Investigations was continuing to investigate his case," Haley said in a written statement.
Haley did not say where or why Singh first came to the attention of U.S. authorities, why ICE released him, or whether ICE officials knew of his alleged crimes in India.
On Saturday morning, Singh called police and said he had just killed four people in his Selma home, Fresno County Sheriff's Deputy Chris Curtice said. Police found the bodies of Singh, a woman believed to be his wife and two children, Curtice said. All appeared to have died from gunshot wounds.
A teenager believed to be one of Singh's three sons was found "barely alive," Curtice said. The boy remained in the hospital in critical condition Tuesday.
Investigators are still trying to determine a motive in Saturday's killing.
Singh was sought with an Interpol notice for the 1996 killing of Jalil Andrabi, a lawyer and prominent human rights advocate, in the disputed region of Indian-controlled Kashmir.
Andrabi disappeared at the height of protests in the region, where nearly a dozen rebel groups have fought Indian security forces for independence or merger with Pakistan since 1989. More than 68,000 people, mostly civilian, have been killed in the uprising and subsequent crackdown.
A police investigation said Andrabi had been picked up in Kashmir's main city, Srinagar, by Indian troops and killed in their custody. His body was recovered in a local river - he had been shot in the head and his eyes were gouged out.
The probe blamed Singh and his soldiers for that killing and accused Singh of involvement in the killings of six other Kashmiri men.
Singh lived freely in India for years after the charges against him were filed. India did not request Interpol to issue a so-called "red notice" on him until 2009. He is believed to have fled to Canada before moving to California after the Canadian Center for International Justice pressured the Canadian government to locate him, said Hafizullah Mir, Andrabi's lawyer.
Singh, who owned a trucking company in Selma, had been arrested in Selma in February 2011, after his wife said he choked her.
Police then discovered that he was being sought in India on a murder charge, Selma Police Chief Myron Dyck said shortly after that arrest. Dyck said at the time, that he could not keep Singh in custody on the murder charge, so Singh bailed out of jail.
Dyck hasn't responded to calls seeking comment about the 2011 arrest.
Singh was charged with felony domestic violence, pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor of false imprisonment, and was sentenced to three years of probation and a 52-week batterer's treatment program, said Sonia De La Rosa, spokeswoman for the Fresno County District Attorney's Office.

Homeless Children
homelessness, the condition of not having a permanent place to live, widely perceived as a societal problem only beginning in the 1980s. Estimates of the number of homeless people in the United States are imprecise, but in the late 1990s ranged from 700,000 per night to 2 million per year. A survey made in 1994 found that 12 million Americans had experienced homelessness at some point in their lives; the vast majority of those who are homeless consists of single men and families with children. The problem exists in all major cities and many smaller communities. The causes range from large-scale deinstitutionalization of mentally ill people to disintegration of the social fabric in minority communities, drug and alcohol abuse, relatively stagnant wages at lower income levels, cutbacks in federal social-welfare programs, job loss, reductions in public housing, and rent increases and real-estate speculation. The McKinney Act (1987) established federal support for the building and maintenance of emergency homeless shelters; some 3,700 agencies and organizations now operate shelters.

Hefner struggles after delay, Mets lose to Padres
NEW YORK Jeremy Hefner was off to a good start in the rain. He lost his grip after a long delay.
Hefner was hit hard once he returned to the mound in the third inning following a stoppage of 1 hour, 8 minutes, and the New York Mets lost to the San Diego Padres 11-5 Thursday night to spoil his first big league start.
"It was pretty difficult (trying to get going again), but I still think I had the ability to go in and shut down the lineup, and I didn't," Hefner said. "It's a learning experience, and if I ever have to face it again, I now know what I need to do."
Mets manager Terry Collins was confident Hefner could bounce back after the break because the rookie had given up just one hit in the first two innings.
"He hadn't thrown very many pitches and he kept himself active during the break," Collins said. "He said he was fine; we brought him back out. I think he lost his edge a little bit."
Will Venable hit the first of his two RBI doubles and Cameron Maybin had one of his two run-scoring singles in a four-run third inning that broke the game open. Jesus Guzman hit a two-run double in the big inning to help the Padres rebound from being swept in a three-game series in St. Louis.
Everth Cabrera had a career-high four hits and Eric Stults (1-0) pitched five innings to earn his first win with San Diego.
Fielding a lineup in which the 6-7-8 batters all had averages under .200, the Padres set a season-high for runs and had their best effort for hits with 18. Cabrera was just 2 for 21 coming in. Nick Hundley homered in the ninth to give every position player at least one hit.
"I thought all night long the guys had really good at-bats," Padres manager Bud Black said. "That was probably, obviously, the best offensive night we had all year."
Both starters wearing No. 53 returned to the mound the delay after the second inning. Stults adjusted better than Hefner (0-2), shutting down the Mets for three more innings.
David Wright hit a two-run homer off Matt Palmer in the sixth and he finished 3 for 5 to raise his average to .405 in the first game of the Mets' season-long 11-game homestand.
"He's in a zone like no other," Collins said. "His whole approach, I mean, you watch him get ready before a game starts. He's got a routine he sticks with. He believes in it and he gets himself ready to play."
In an encouraging sign for the Mets, struggling first baseman Ike Davis had a two-run single pinch-hitting in the eighth inning. Before the game he said Collins gave him a vote of confidence by telling him that he would remain with the Mets to work out his problems at the plate rather than go to the minors.
"I thought Ike was certainly being himself today," Collins said. "I only talked to him briefly, a little bit on the field, but I had three or four people telling me that they thought he was a different person today, personality wise. And that was the intent to try to ease off a little bit. Let him take a deep breath and get himself thinking about what he's got to do to be successful and not what's hanging over his head."

Sorry missed these quotes but I want to respond. No being emotional is definitely not always positive, but either is being logical. That is the point of Spock and Bones. Neither logic or emotion by themselves is enough you need both.
As for being the "heart" of the trio well I will stick with that.
Kirk is the man of action, the one who ultimately makes the decisions, or the body and soul of the group.
Spock is the mind. He helps Kirk with his decisions by giving him the logical, rational, and intelligent advice. McCoy is the heart by giving Kirk the humanistic and emotional advice. But again Kirk needed both sides.

When the liver has been damaged by
cirrhosis, it may not be able to filter poisons from
the bloodstream, especially substances in the blood produced by bacteria in the
large intestine. As a result, these substances (which include ammonia) may
build up in the bloodstream and cause problems in your brain called
encephalopathy. High ammonia levels are a sign of encephalopathy.
Symptoms of encephalopathy may include:
Encephalopathy is most likely to occur in people who have high blood
pressure in the portal vein system (portal hypertension). But it may also occur in people who have severe acute
liver damage but do not have portal hypertension. Certain procedures (such as
shunting, which redirects the flow of blood or fluid through other areas of the
body) that help lower portal hypertension and prevent variceal bleeding may
actually increase your risk for encephalopathy. Other things that
can contribute to encephalopathy include use of sedatives or narcotics,
gastrointestinal bleeding, abnormal levels of
electrolytes in the blood (especially low potassium
levels), excess protein in the diet, infection such as
peritonitis, dehydration, and constipation.
Most cases of encephalopathy are treated using a medicine called
lactulose. This drug helps prevent the buildup of substances in the large intestine
that may lead to encephalopathy. Lactulose is effective at decreasing ammonia
levels in the blood and improving encephalopathy.
Side effects of lactulose may include:
If you have had many cases of encephalopathy, your doctor may give you another medicine called rifaximin. This medicine may be used with lactulose to help prevent encephalopathy. In one study, the group of people who took rifaximin and lactulose had fewer cases of encephalopathy than the people who only took lactulose.1

Agoda.com offers hotel deals for adventurous divers down under
Agoda.com, Asia´s leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq: PCLN), is offering great deals on hotels in southern Australia that will suit scuba divers who are seeking a bit of adventure.
Singapore (PRWEB) June 19, 2013
Agoda.com, Asia´s leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq: PCLN), is offering great deals on hotels in southern Australia that will suit scuba divers who are seeking a bit of adventure.
Both the city of Adelaide and the town of Port Lincoln in southern Australia are known for the populations of Great White Sharks that cruise the waters near shore, and there are many companies that offer divers the chance to see these magnificent animals up close — real close — with a variety of cage diving tours.
Known throughout the world as one of nature´s most fearsome apex predators, the Carcharodon carcharias (Great White) has been the subject of books, movies and documentaries for decades. Famous for its size (averaging around 5m and 800kg) and its propensity to eat whatever floats in front of its face, it takes a brave soul to jump into water where the huge animals are known to swim. However, advances in diving safety have made the experience available to a wide variety of people, and these two locations offer some of the best cage diving in Australia.
There are many tour companies offering these services in Adelaide and Port Lincoln, and most give customers the option of simply watching from the boat or actually getting in the water. A strong metal cage provides protection from any of the sharks that get too curious, but they usually swim in for a look, decide they don´t like their food wrapped in a metal cage, and swim off. This provides a great opportunity to get up-close photos and video of these powerfully elegant animals as they glide through the cool, blue water.
In the past, some have asked whether this practice is ethical — for instance, is baiting the water with chum ℠training´ the sharks to associate food with humans? Michael Scholl, noted marine biologist and founder of the White Shark Trust for Research and Conservation, has offered a defense of the practice, saying that Great Whites are nomadic, and therefore won´t develop a connection between bait and humans without repeated encounters. He also notes that to a shark, the boat, cage and humans are seen as one giant entity, far too big to think of as food — it´s drawn in by curiosity rather than the idea that a big meal is imminent. Others have also supported the practice by saying that it increases awareness and provides valuable research opportunities.
Although visible all year round, the Great White numbers rise between May-October, when local populations of sea lions and seals swell and the sharks come near for easy pickings. This is the best time for cage dives, and tour operators offer several different packages for all tastes — whether you want to dive or simply watch.
