Every Monday morning, even as the realization takes hold that one hasn't read through the enormous weekend edition of The New York Times that includes the Book Review, NYT Magazine, Metropolitan page and the Week in Review, somehow or the other, one soon bypasses all that "stuff" and reaches for the Metropolitan diary section of the Monday NYT. The Metropolitan diary gives one a sense of what exactly has been experienced by New Yorkers (and those visiting New York) that week. It is a section devoted to city encounters — some good, some bad, some recent, some really old but all that is so New York. After all, it will inevitably mention the subway, some neighbourhoods (mostly well known ones!), street music and mostly the chance encounters which only a city that is completely ruled by its subways, buses and an easily negotiable grid of streets and avenues can generate.
Even as Brooklyn has outpaced the cool and hip factor of Manhattan, the images that every visitor wants to witness are still those portrayed in films — Times Square, Empire State Building, China Town, Central Park and the horse carriage rides, Fifth Avenue and if you are a Hollywood buff, the delis like Katz and Lalos where When Harry met Sally and You've Got Mail shot key scenes — all in Manhattan. And, as a New Yorker, even while appreciating these landmarks, what you always want to share and communicate is the feel of the city through the neighbourhood you learn to discover and appreciate over time. The neighbourhood that I have experienced the most is Washington Heights — the upper tip of Manhattan from 155th st onwards. According to The New York Times, the cool restaurants are now moving up north and people apparently have started calling our neighbourhood Wa-hi — always a sign that the neighbourhood is fast changing.
Even as one observes the shifting contours of one's neighbourhood, Washington Heights still remains predominantly a Dominican area. The restaurants around are filled with yummy smells of roasted pork, chicken with cilantro sauce, beans, plantains and empanadas while the grocery stores sell vegetables which coincide easily with Oriya heaven due to the kancha kadali (raw plantains), desi alu (a kind of yam) and saru (taro) not even available in many parts of India. The fact that there are now sushi places and salad/sandwich delis in the heart of this neighbourhood perhaps reflects the changing reality but the Dominican/Caribbean food places still retain their charm and popularity among both locals and visitors.
Everyone in New York knows the city changes its character every few blocks and that's true here as elsewhere. So as one walks south on Broadway towards downtown, one comes across the place where the famous civil rights leader Malcolm X gave his last speech — the Audobon Ballroom (on 165th st) where he was shot and the Columbia Presbyterian Center (on 168th st) where he was taken and where he died. The ballroom now has been converted into the Malcolm X and Betty Shabazz museum and often has exhibitions related to the legacies of the civil rights era.
Wa-hi however changes completely once one crosses over to the other side (north) of Broadway, from 180th to 181st st because you are told that it is now Hudson Heights. Urban legend has it that the name change was initiated by the real estate folks to ensure that the neighbourhood can charge its residents more for not living in Washington Heights. The defining feature of Hudson Heights is the remarkable views of the Hudson River which are of course also visible along Washington Heights for lesser rates but the latter area is less maintained. But certainly the jewel in the crown of Hudson Heights is the Fort Tryon Park, one of the most stunning parks of New York. Located at 190th st, it was the site of the battle of Fort Washington in 1776 when George Washington stood at the height of the park to watch the British coming. The battle was lost but the fort is marked in the form of a beautiful park that thanks to the hilly nature of the terrain, with stunning views of the Hudson River and the George Washington bridge (that Le Corbusier called the most beautiful bridge in the world) is rightfully the site for the Cloisters. The Cloisters, the medieval museum of the Metropolitan (MET) museum, is meant to be in a secluded place and occupies a prominent part of the park. Overlooking the Hudson river, the Rockefellers even bought the land across the river and converted it into the Palisades State Park so that you could experience the serenity even when you look across. The unexpectedness of New York City is its chance encounters with street corner markets and festivals. This trend is exemplified in one such encounter in the Fort Tryon park during a yearly medieval festival where one witnessed large slabs of meat on sticks being enjoyed by people in medieval costumes watching an old style circus.
Meanwhile, below 181st street in Wa-hi, there are some reminders that it is really not Hudson Heights pointing to the difference a few blocks can make. The fine food stores sometimes have expired foods and the farmer markets have just a tad less fresh food than the ones below and above. The famous Riverside Drive which runs along the western part of Manhattan is a must visit place especially near the 79th st boat basin and is lovely even next to Columbia University on 116th st but near Wa-hi, it changes. Our Riverside Drive in Wa-hi can only be reached after crossing an overflowing dump on 163rd st. and often requires jumping over the trash on the sidewalks. And yet even as one notices the difference in how neighbourhoods are maintained/prioritised (or not) depending on where you live, the view of the Hudson river, the sunset, the spectacular George Washington Bridge and the Dominican food makes this neighbourhood a lovely prism through which one can experience and love the city.

Has the N scale Bachmann train been offered for sale, yet?
I understood it was to be a part of the Main Street Train Station.
Has the N scale Bachmann train been offered for sale, yet?
I understood it was to be a part of the Main Street Train Station.
Do you mean this one? It was released in 2005, with a limited edition of 1955, which was sold out. It can be used with the Olszewski Main Street collection, but it's not part of the Train Station per se.
I hope they do issue a follow up set. I would love to add more cars to the train. Three just isn't enough
It is nice do display the train with the platform - though it seems out of scale with the train station.
Yes, I know Train is N-scale, Buildings z-scale with adapted doorways etc to N-scale.
I had even purchased a z-scale train, cars and track that is similiar in style to the Disney trains with full "intent" of installing and displaying with my table. But, just hadn't gotten to that yet.
I was lucky to be at the park when the original N-scale train was available and bought.
I had no idea at the time that it was a limited edition (and don't see any indications on the box or train that it is limited)
I also ordered the "train track kit" from the studio when they sold them. But, I never installed it.
Are there any success stories out there with that kit?

There is a Bachmann Lilly Belle on the way but who cares, because Bachmann's N scale steamers are horribly built.
Hello casey and welcome to miceage.com! Well to answer your question whether any n scale trains have been released,I've seen one not too long ago looking exactly like e.p.ripley locomotive #2! I don't think it is for sale anymore but currently they have an ho scale lille belle train set,standing approximately 2" tall with a realistic look to the original train set walt had in his back yard! It also has a yellow caboose! I was told that walt had built that from scratch! I had seen it once at main street disneyland anaheim but don't know where it is now,along with the original 1/8 scale lille belle walt would ride on in his backyard and also give guest rides! I think it is in some other part! But what remains at anaheim is extra parts walt had that disney built and it is there on main st.for viewing but I don't think it ever ran! The conductors say it is able and ready to be fired up! I thought it would be cool to have a 1/8 scale train go around the park! Remember,anything is possible at disneyland but can you imagine the line? Not everone in their life time would be able to ride!
On that same note,there is a park in riverside off of iowa and columbia st.with a train layout! I walked the track and it goes around a baseball diamond! I don't know when they run the trains but rumor has it it is in the summer!
But anyway back to your question! I've had relatives own n scale train sets and in my opinion,they are not so realistic! In one locomotive,the whole front lights up! So the first half on the locmotive,deisel,was lit up! Maybe in my opinion,if they put a small bulb like on a mag-light! It can focus and be an excellent addition to the real deal but I've been dealin with ho scale for years and next to reality is lgb scale! Those stand about 10" inches tall and some locmotives run from $200 up to $700 dollars! I've seen a live steamer that ran on butane for under $500 so look around and check different sites or talk to every hobby store you go to and may your dreams come true for believing!07
As for LGB scale...I'm thinking you mean "G gauge," as LGB is one of the companies that makes the trains, not the gauge itself. But you're right...those can be incredibly expensive. $700 is cheap for some of the better locomotives I've seen (take a look at Accucraft for one...most of theirs are in the $1300-$3000 range)
The thing that annoyed me with the train is that the buildings are Z scale so why make the train in N scale? Total disparity. Z scale do exist.
As for N gauge I have lots of US locos in this scale and as yet have nevr bought one thatI would consider "cheap". My last purchase was a CSX and its perfectly detailed.
Now I'll turn that little mouse's dream into a nightmare Fantasmic !
I also don't consider my N scale stuff "cheap." Some amazing engineering to get that scale to work. I am even more amazed at z scale. I would love to have a "garden" set but my yard here is embarrasingly (sp) small (at least I have some dirt here in Hawaii).
I bought this z scale train with full 'intent" to paint to match a DLR train. But, hadn't gotten to that But, the scale works real well with the buildings.
The platform I was building before the official one came was tracked in Z Scale. (my berms looked terrible though...)
The passenger cars are west theme and very similiar to Bachman set.
N scale people and props (like benches) are a lot easier to find. I have lots and use the hobby glue to hold them down.
When I visit my family in the San Jose area I hit a major hobby store for bits and pieces

Checkout our nn3 scale trains, www.agidistrict.com under "Disneylands Trains" in the sidebar. I think you will be impressed! We salvaged the chassis and some parts from the loco shown above and made our own Ernest S. March and Fred Gurley!

cesses. When the ATP was founded, the problem was seen as an inability to produce competitive standard products and processes. The ATP responds to that change in the policy environment.
A second, related, trend is that the process of innovation is increasingly global, and its pace is accelerating. Companies turn knowledge into high-value products and processes at facilities throughout the world, sometimes on a twenty-four hour schedule. Furthermore, other countries are getting better at this kind of innovation. Again, this change plays to the ATP's strengths.
Third, the private sector in the United States—especially in the past four or five years—has increased its focus on developing unique and high value products and services. This trend cuts the other way for the ATP, which is intended to compensate for companies' unwillingness to make such risky investments. As the federal share of R&D has declined, and private investment has moved into these areas. How can the ATP address that issue?
Fourth, the U.S. economy is performing much better than it was in 1990. The sense of competitive urgency, on the parts of both industry and government, has improved. The federal budget is less constrained. These shifts would seem to favor continued support of the ATP.
Finally, economic power has grown more decentralized. In the private sector, smaller, more agile, and more entrepreneurial firms have crowded out large firms as the engines of growth. In the public sector, much political power has flowed to states and localities. ATP must take advantage of this change.

The day's program, Dr. Feldman said, was a heartening display of the rigor and seriousness with which ATP and its partners in industry have taken their responsibilities for the program. In particular, viewpoints of large and small com-

Since emerging in the late nineteenth century, political science has undergone a radical shift--from constructing grand narratives of national political development to producing empirical studies of individual political phenomena. What caused this change? Modern Political Science--the first authoritative history of Anglophone political science--argues that the field's transformation shouldn't be mistaken for a case of simple progress and increasing scientific precision. On the contrary, the book shows that political science is deeply historically contingent, driven both by its own inherited ideas and by the wider history in which it has developed.
Focusing on the United States and the United Kingdom, and the exchanges between them, Modern Political Science contains contributions from leading political scientists, political theorists, and intellectual historians from both sides of the Atlantic. Together they provide a compelling account of the development of political science, its relation to other disciplines, the problems it currently faces, and possible solutions to these problems.
Building on a growing interest in the history of political science, Modern Political Science is necessary reading for anyone who wants to understand how political science got to be what it is today--or what it might look like tomorrow.

Martha says that her incarceration offered her "the tremendous privilege" of meeting a cross-section of people in prison, and causing her to realize that "Every person deserves dignity." (No kidding! Stop the presses!)
While doing time, she added, "I've read. I've reflected, and I've also learned a lot about our country. I sense in the American public there is a growing need to preserve human connections," along with "the need to honor many, many kinds of families. It's not just moms and dads anymore. I've seen that."
Why is it that wealthy convicts only become aware of draconian sentences and the lot of impoverished women after they get themselves locked up? Don't these people ever read a newspaper?
Oh, well. In a charming twist of fate, and an unwitting commentary on the vagaries of fashion, it seems that that the poncho has now become a coveted item; Martha says she will do her best to secure and publish a pattern for it.
If that's the case, it'll surely be knocked off by big name designers, and may soon grace the alarmingly bony shoulders of an Olsen twin. According to The New York Times, Mary-Kate and Ashley are the newest fashion icons, dressing in layers of thrift store castoffs occasionally garnished with an artfully frayed high-end designer creation. The Times calls the result ashcan chic, though less politically correct types have been known to use the term "homeless chic." (The article fails to note that burying yourself in a ton of fabric frequently accompanies an eating disorder; the wearer feels her unsightly "fat" flesh must be covered up, no matter how thin she really is. Mary-Kate Olsen was hospitalized with anorexia last year.)
In other news, are we the only ones horrified by the Abu Ghraib-ish vibe emanating from a recent Dolce & Gabbana advertising campaign running in the glossies this month? The ads depict naked men and stern women in a dungeon-like setting. Sure, casual sadism has been fashionable for years, but when you're at war and your treatment of prisoners has become an international scandal, maybe its time to take a break from the marketing of stylish handcuffs and ankle restraints? And while we're complaining, we also don't much care for the giant two-page ad for the Peninsula hotel chain in The New Yorker, which features a crowd of non-Caucasian children, the progeny of hotel employees, wearing miniature service workers uniforms (but alas, no union buttons); on the following page a grown-up employee is walking a bunch of the guests' dogs while surrounded by a gaggle of slender daughters of the bourgeoisie, swinging what look suspiciously like Birkin bags. None of them is wearing a prison-crocheted ponchoat least not yet.

The word productivity means producing result with less effort and greater speed.In this season of productivity there is increased grace to produce.God doesn't want you productive in a particular area of your life,He wants you to be fruitful and productive in every good work you do.In Hebrews 13 vs 20-21,the bible says that the God of peace makes you perfect in every good work, it's God's will for us to be complete in everything we require to produce result,so since God has said it's our season of productivity,it doesn't mean we have not necessarily been producing result but this time we will produce with less effort and time.God is able to make all grace and blessing come to us in abundance(2 Conrithians 9 vs 8) i.e all the grace we require to produce result under any circumstances has been made available to us. All we need do is to find the grace for the particular work we want to carry out;{Hebrews 4 vs 14},the bible says in Romans 5 vs 17 ".....they which recieve abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness",this context clearly explains that although the grace has been made available to us in this season,it's still our responsibility to recieve it.
HOW DO WE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS GRACE? according to the bible in 2 Conrithians 13 vs 14 which says"the grace of our lord jesus christ,the love of God and the fellowship of the holyspirit be with us now and forever.AMEN!" and also Romans 5 vs 5 says "the love of God is shared abroad in our heart by the spirit" so if the Holy Spirit supplies the love of God, then it is the Holy spirit that also communicates the grace.Meaning for the grace of God to be communicated to us we have to be in communion,fellowship and partnership with the Holyspirit and for us to have a relationship and fellowship with the holyspirit,we must realize that the holyspirit is a person who is present in us. That God has said it's our season of productivity doesn't mean we will produce results as we ought to, its our responsibilty to take advantage of the grace that is available and work in the light of the word from God given by our MAN OF GOD PASTOR CHRIS

There's a really cool plugin/addon for XBMC to integrate Icefilms. So I hoped to find something similiar, but nothing. Can scripts from XBMC be executed on Plex?
I haven't used the xbmc plugin but the screen shots look awesome. Attached is a much simpler plugin that has basic functionality. Amongst the limitations :
- only tv
- no captcha support
- no search
- the first time you enter tv may timeout, try again
- streaming takes a while to start, remember you need to wait 45 seconds
- poor error handling (megauploads is a finicky master)

great stuff himym. Cant wait for movies & search ( ihope your build them ). I almost went over to XMBC just to use the icefilms plugin. So thanks so much for writing this for plex. Just one problem, I cant seem to get it to open the stream, it always give a error 'could not determine input format' message. Any ideas?
What client , server and show are you using? I use the Android client with a Windows server.
Can you try the first episode of how I met your mother or hawaii five 0 as they are the only shows I have tried it with.
The video takes a good while (~110 seconds) to show up so be sure to give it time. Hopefully there is something I can do about improving that but for now give it time.

I think it is related to the Mac server timing out more aggressively than the Windows one. At least that is all I can get from the logs on my Macbook.
ERROR - Something is weird, no good response, we're aborting.
Unfortunately I'm a bit of a Plex noob so I'm not sure what can be done. I have posted on the dev boards about some possibly related strange behaviour on Windows but I have not received any replies.

There were two problems. The attached bundle fixes the one in the plugin. When you select the episode you now have to wait 45 seconds and then select again.
The second problem is a bug in Plex. If you want to use the Mac client you need to install 0.9.1.7. For some reason the Android client doesn't work with this so you should stick with the current release for Android clients. I know the change that broke Mac so maybe I can convince the powers that be to revert it.

At what stage does it break? You shouldn't need to install the DivX player to use the Plex plugin.
Posted 30 June 2011 - 04:27 PM
I choose the show I want to watch, then I it says "show name - wait 45 secs" I wait 45 secs, I press it and then it seems to be opening the stream but says invalid media format.I'm not in front of that computer right now but that is the gist.

I have a little bit different problem. I select the show and it takes me to a blank plex screen. Nothing that says I need to wait 45sec. I'm not sure what to do.
Icefilms get a bit finicky when you make too many requests. Quite a lot of requests get made the first time you load the show list (the info is cached so it is a once off hit). Can you try again?
Icefilms have put a new layer of obfuscation around the megaupload links in order to stop bots finding the links. Not sure if this is aimed at stopping the links getting taking down or ensuring their adverts get view. A new version to work around it attached. As before you need version of 0.9.1.7 Plex for the Mac client or the latest version of Plex for other clients.

hi himym,

For some reason the version I uploaded last night isn't working anymore even though it was yesterday.
Can you try this version. Remember you need version 0.9.1.7 if you want to use the Mac client and captcha is not supported so not all shows are supported. Try How I Met Your Mother or American Dad or Hawaii 5-0.

Two Tabor City men are accused of breaking into a Calabash business May 10 and stealing eight guns.
Joseph Bryan Nealey, 37, of Swamp Fox Highway East, and Edward Devon Grainger, 30, of 832 Big Avenue, are each charged with felony breaking and entering and larceny of a firearm, warrants show. Nealey also is charged with possession of a firearm by a felon.
OCEAN ISLE BEACH — Wind and rain weren't the only weapons Tropical Storm Ana brought to land last week. The storm that made landfall in Brunswick County on May 10 also attacked Ocean Isle Beach with a cannonball.
Terry Bryant, executive director of the Ocean Isle Museum Foundation for the Museum of Coastal Carolina, where the cannonball wound up, said Ocean Isle Beach's utilities maintenance supervisor, Bobby Hardy, found the cannonball.
Three people are accused of fatally shooting a 26-year-old Leland woman who was reported missing more than two weeks ago.
Detectives arrested 31-year-old Michael Jesse Williams of Whiteville and 18-year-old Kayla Turner of Leland and charged each with murder, first-degree kidnapping and robbery with a dangerous weapon in the death of Alicia Marie Deans, a mother of two who was reported missing April 28, Columbus County Sheriff Lewis Hatcher wrote in a Friday, May 15, news release.
It took a team of dedicated volunteers to restore the Kindred Spirit site to its original glory.
Last Thursday morning, May 14, the team trekked down to the popular notebook-writing spot on Bird Island to right the wrong caused by Tropical Storm Ana when the May 10 storm blew through, sweeping away the renowned Kindred Spirit mailbox, its bench and American flag and bending the flagpole.
After a search, the damaged mailbox was found as was the bench, which had been washed almost down to the Little River, S.C., jetties.
A Habitat for Humanity volunteer is accused of stealing a van and money from the organization's new Leland ReStore.
Leland police arrested 20-year-old Steven Lynn Spell Jr., of Carolina Avenue in Leland, on Tuesday, May 19, and charged him with breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering, larceny of a motor vehicle and safecracking, according to a news release.
Police responded to a break-in reported that day at the store on Village Road, the release said. A van belonging to the organization was stolen, along with $750 from a safe.
BOLIVIA — Brunswick County's proposed budget for 2015-16 would increase the tax rate to 48.50, up from 44.25 cents.
County Manager Ann Hardy presented the county board of commissioners with a $214.2 million budget proposal at their Monday, May 19, meeting. The 2014-15 budget was $210.2 million
Hardy said the budget will be balanced with $3.06 million from the fund balance.
SHALLOTTE — Buddy Norris was definitely breathing easier.
Nearly six months after receiving double-lung transplant surgery and intensive follow-up treatment in Atlanta, the Shallotte sign-maker is finally back home.
Norris, 52, returned to his residence with his wife, Amy, this past Saturday, May 16, from Atlanta, where he had been living since undergoing surgery at Emory University Hospital just days before Thanksgiving last November.
SUPPLY — Wilbert C Gore Sr., a Tuskegee Airman and native of Brunswick County, was celebrated for both reasons by his extended family Saturday.
Gore, who was born Sept. 9, 1923, in Supply, lives in Portsmouth, Va. But his sons, Glene and Wilbert Jr. said their father wanted to come back for a happy occasion — to see his hometown again — instead of a family funeral.
Agents with the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office Drug Enforcement Unit have arrested a Shallotte man who faces several drug charges.
Joe Junior Bell, 34, of Hale Swamp Road, is charged with trafficking heroin, trafficking MDMA, possession with intent to manufacture, sell or deliver heroin, manufacture, sell or deliver MDMA, maintaining a dwelling house used for keeping and selling heroin and MDMA, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Two Brunswick County Schools employees in the transportation department have been placed on leave after a sleeping student was left on a school bus unattended Wednesday morning, May 13.
District spokeswoman Jessica Swencki said bus driver Evelyn Miller and bus monitor Roswitha Delts are on paid administrative leave after leaving a Virginia Williamson Elementary School first-grade girl on the bus Wednesday morning at Cedar Grove Middle School.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Seeing a double mouse cursor.
for some reason, when I play Skyrim I can see both the real game cursor and my normal Windows cursor, in different places on the screens, which is very confusing and distracting. (Only the Skyrim cursor actually works.) I'm playing in fullscreen on my primary monitor.(I've downloaded a mod that should allow fullscreen windowed mode, but I want to exhaust other possibilities first.
I've tried running the game with visual themes disabled, as suggested on my searching, but that didn't work. I could disable my second screen, but that would discombobulate my desktop; I'd rather not do that unless I must. Going to try the fullscreen windowed thing now.
Does anyone else have any other advice? :)

The Topic Killer since 2001
I frequently get a double mouse cursor when I alt+tab to check on something. I have not found a way to fix it other than quitting/reloading.
It never happens to me unless I alt+tab though, and even that does not always cause it 100%.
Your situation seems different, but at least you're not the only one to see double mouse cursor :)
This only happens to me when I alt-tab out of the game and then back in. Extremely annoying, although it's a great portrayal of exactly what mouse acceleration is :P
Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
Yes, happens all the time when you Alt+Tab out of the game, to fix it just click on Skyrim in your taskbar, it should bring up a black screen, move your cursor up to the top of your screen, then back down into the black Skyrim window. The mouse cursor should disappear in a few seconds and then you can just Alt+Tab back into the game without an extra mouse cursor.
GT: Yu OWNED You
Never happened to me before latest patch I might add
Yeah, it's a new thing that happens now occasionally when you Alt+Tab. It's not that terribly annoying only because it happens rarely and restarting the game fixes it.
I don't have an answer for it always happening, but for the people getting it when alt+tabbing: In my experience the most sure way to prevent it that is to open the console before alt-tabbing. It's nice being able to open it at any time. It works out better for me than making sure I am in the menu or something.
You could try disabling the Steam community in-game, just a random idea for something to try.
What everyone else said.
Go here and pay me for stuff! http://fiverr.com/tzuba
an atheist scowling at a cheat code. he growls. "....GOD MODE?!"
This used to happen to me way back in the day for anything fullscreen. I just alt-tabbed out of the game, moved my mouse to the most bottom right point on the screen (to where only the top left black pixel of the mouse was visible) and then alt-tabbed back into the game. This way the only thing it does is covers up one pixel in the far corner of your screen.
This works on everything except program's that revert your mouse to the middle of the screen when alt-tabbing back to the game. The only way to fix that is to move your mouse to the bottom right of the screen the instant you hit the "play" button (or whatever launches the game) and hope resolutions don't screw it up when the game launches
I do it so much its become a reflex; anything I launch fullscreen I move my mouse to the bottom right.
SNES FAQ Completion Project
I am not sure if this will work for everyone, but it works for me to fix it without restarting the game. I am running un-modded BTW. when i try to tab back in the game i have to tab twice anyway (once for a black screen with a windows border, another to see the game)
When i alt-tab in and out, i get the double cursor
I alt tab out again, and then tab back in. On the first black window that pops up, move your windows cursor up to the top of the screen so that it is visible around the top windows bar. then move your windows cursor down until it disappears (about 20-30% down the screen) and left click.
alt - tab again so the game is visible and enjoy a single cursor.

Love growing herbs on my window sill. Its good to always have access to the :)done it for years also haping to grow salad on there too soon.
No they are too narrow these days unless you are in older home, i do dry seeds there though and that works well !
No, it is a very harsh environment for them with extremes of temperatures. You are better off growing either in a window box outside, or in a tub outside the kitchen door.
Does anyone grow their herbs in the kitchen window sill?
Pass it on and do it!
A beautiful morning it has been! Warm, sunny and breezy. Perfect for harvesting the abundance of Melissa (Lemon Balm) in my garden. Harvested, sorted, picked over, cleaned, and hung to dry. I should get at least two harvests this season...woohoo!
Matt, there is nothing to argue about. As with many plants, problems can arise based on the growing conditions and quite possibly on the type of flies that are in the locale and proximity to other plants (along with many other possible variables). It is just something bear in mind.
It is possible for two opposite experiences to be correct at the same time.
i have several acres of garden/property, so hopefully flies won't be a problem, but will keep on eye out :)
Hi matt - I'd love to take the motherwort off your hands - would you be able to call me on 815-9077 - thanks- Julie
I have started a discussion in Hester's plant exchange group for elderberry cuttings. If anyone wants some, please pm me in autumn and I'll send a bundle for distribution to whoever wants them. Someone will need to put their hand up to be the distributor closer to the time.

secondary structure of proteins
|University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research
|Protein structure prediction is a growing field of interest for a many varied reasons, owing not only to its obvious utility, but also the success that applying newer mathematical tools has garnered in recent years. Despite the intractability of determining optimal protein structure directly by finding a lowest-energy conformation among a huge amount of candidates, many heuristic methods have emerged that sacrifice some degree of accuracy for reasonable speed of execution. Through the use of numerical techniques such as neural networks(1), neural networks bolstered by position-specific scoring matrices generated by psi-blast(2), and k-nearest neighbor algorithms(3), the success rate of protein structure prediction has been increasing over the past decade and a half. Each of these tools has particular strengths and weaknesses. To address this and to improve prediction accuracy, we are constructing a three-part meta-tool that combines k-nearest neighbor methods, neural network methods, and hidden markov models to predict the secondary structure of proteins based on their position-specific scoring matrices. The results from each of the individual tools will be integrated and filtered to form a final prediction. This tool will be available on the web through a simple interface for those wishing to evaluate or utilize it. References: 1: Rost and Sander.

depression (in psychiatry)
depression, in psychiatry, a symptom of mood disorder characterized by intense feelings of loss, sadness, hopelessness, failure, and rejection. The two major types of mood disorder are unipolar disorder, also called major depression, and bipolar disorder, whose sufferers are termed manic-depressive (see bipolar disorder). Other types of depression are recognized, with characteristics similar to the major mood disorders, but not as severe: they are adjustment disorder with depression, dysthymic disorder, and cyclothymic disorder.
Close to 20% of Americans are likely to suffer major depression at some time, and women tend to be more susceptible to the disorder than men. Major depression is likely to interfere significantly with everyday activity, with symptoms including insomnia, irritability, weight loss, and a lack of interest in outside events. The disorder may last several months or longer—and may recur—but it is generally reversible in the short run.
Bipolar disorder is much rarer, affecting only about 1% of the U.S. population; women and men tend to be equally susceptible. Its sufferers alternate between states of depression—similar to that which is experienced in unipolar disorder—and mania, which is characterized by intense euphoria and frenetic activity. Bipolar disorders are often interspersed with periods of relatively normal behavior, which may last for long periods of time between episodes of depression or mania. Manic-depressives have an extremely high rate of suicide, and episodes of the disorder tend to recur.
Medical evidence suggests that depressive states may be connected to deficiencies in the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and serotonin. Drug therapy includes various antidepressants that act on the flow of neurotransmitters and lithium for bipolar disorder (antidepressants can cause mania when used to treat depression in bipolar patients). There also has been success with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for major depression.
In recent years, theorists have argued that many depressed individuals depend upon others for their self-esteem, and that the loss of one of these emotional supports often precipitates a depressive reaction. A number of psychologists contend instead that depression is a result of learned helplessness, which occurs when a person determines through experience that his actions are useless in making positive changes. Other theorists have shown that genetic factors play a role in depression.

I love the quilt; however, the description said over-sized quilt so I didn't check the measurements. It barely covered my queen bed. I was also disappointed that the shams were not available.
Love this quilt it is beautiful and well made.... and looks wonderful on my bed... my only regret is that the shams were sold out.... wish there was a way I could have gotten a pair of them....
This is a lovely quilt and a quality fabric. I ordered the King for my Queen bed because the bed sits high off the ground and I like my spreads to cover the frame. This works great! I haven't washed it yet, so that remains a question!!
The quality of this quilt is outstanding. It is such a crisp look when coordinated with white. Love it!!
colors are sophisticated; bedding is well made

The next Fifty Years: Science in the First Half of the Twenty-first Centuryby John Brockman
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A brilliant ensemble of the world's most visionary scientists provides twenty-five original never-before-published essays about the advances in science and technology that we may see within our lifetimes.
Theoretical physicist and bestselling author Paul Davies examines the likelihood that by the year 2050 we will be able to establish a continuing human presence on Mars. Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi investigates the ramifications of engineering high-IQ, geneticially happy babies. Psychiatrist Nancy Etcoff explains current research into the creation of emotion-sensing jewelry that could gauge our moods and tell us when to take an anti-depressant pill. And evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins explores the probability that we will soon be able to obtain a genome printout that predicts our natural end for the same cost as a chest x-ray. (Will we want to read it? And will insurance companies and governments have access to it?) This fascinating and unprecedented book explores not only the practical possibilities of the near future, but also the social and political ramifications of the developments of the strange new world to come.

They say one man's trash is another's treasure. What about another man's masterpiece?
That's the challenge posed to the UX team at Sears Holdings Corp. for their second annual art exhibition. The 250+ team of designers, writers, developers, web architects, researchers, and others were invited to up-cycle artistically. Essentially, upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials, products of better quality, better environmental value or into works of art.Read More

To add onto what Brother Bob says, since memory is laid out mostly as powers of two*, and 16 is a power of two, it makes it very convenient to describe memory-related values in hexadecimal.
1 byte = 2 digit hex exactly
2 bytes = 4 digit hex exactly
4 bytes = 8 digit hex exactly
Binary would work just as good... but it is too wordy. 11101010 11010101 10010011 11011101 verses just 0xEAD593DD. It's alot more compact to display.
Decimal is also alot more compact to display (3939865565), but it doesn't line up to the powers of two like binary and hexadecimal does.
Some people also use octal (base 8), though I don't see that all too often.
The final benefit of hexadecimal is that you can spell words in it: 0xDEADC0DE
*The basic units of memory (bytes) don't have to be laid out in powers of two, but it almost always is nowadays. Example: 32bit PCs and 64bit PCs. Sure, there's some wierd systems where bytes are 10 bits, but hey,

Hanging out as friends after rejection, what to do and what not to do?
I was rejected by a girl I like a lot some months ago. She really likes me as a friend though and she feels really bad for rejecting me. I'd like to... Show More
I'm still in love with her by the way:) And she knows.
Most Helpful Opinion
I suggest you not mention it. If you're asking her to hang out as friends, then just do what friends do. Don't make it awkward. Show her that it's all good by just being a good friend, not making any moves, and just hanging out and having fun together. That's what a friendship is, and that's probably all she wants.

People love pandas. They're cute, cuddly and desperately endangered. We want to save them. Our kids beg us to save them. Nevertheless, one journalist recently asked the provocative question: Should we just give up on the panda and let it die out?
Timothy Lavin, news writer for Bloomberg, caused a bit of controversy recently when he published an article called "Why I Hate Pandas and You Should Too." Written in response to the joyous proclamations that a new baby panda had been born at Washington, D.C.'s National Zoo, Lavin says we're wasting money, time and effort trying to save pandas.
It's an interesting perspective. Should we go "all out" to save a species — especially an adorable one — or spend that money where it might do more good overall for other species? Lavin believes pandas should be left to go extinct because they are "evolutionary failures." Put a fork in them, they're done. They don't reproduce reliably, they don't survive mostly on meat like other bears and they're expensive to maintain.
Lavin thinks panda lovers need an intervention right about now. He says conservation "requires making tough choices. Pandas had a pretty good run for 3 million years. All that money is better spent on preserving diverse habitats rather than on a single hopeless species."
Almost No Pandas Left Out There
The panda, known as the Giant Panda to differentiate it from its cousin the Red Panda, lives in only a few mountainous areas in China's Yangtze Basin region. Development, farming and deforestation have stripped it of nearly all its natural habitat.
The Giant Panda is listed as "endangered" on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List. There may be as few as 1,600 left in the wild. Only about 61 percent of the world's remaining wild pandas – about 980 — live in a protected status on 50 Chinese reserves.
Pandas are carnivores, but oddly about 99 percent of their diet consists of bamboo — lots and lots of bamboo. Bamboo is not nutritionally dense, so pandas must eat 26 to 84 pounds of it every day.
Panda Haters Be Hatin'
As Lavin points out in his article, he's not the first to suggest that we end heroic efforts to save the panda. Chris Packham, a British television wildlife expert, told The Telegraph in 2009: "Here's a species that of its own accord has gone down an evolutionary cul-de-sac. It's not a strong species." Packham's verdict: "I reckon we should pull the plug. Let them go with a degree of dignity."
Others have said much the same, sometimes harshly:
The point here, ultimately, is that humans have so ruined the panda's habitat that there is almost literally no place where captive-reared pandas could successfully be returned to the wild. That leads some to ask: Why are we trying so hard to make more of them?
Lavin felt the wrath of the panda-loving public following publication of his anti-panda article. "Have you no soul?" a fellow customer in a market asked him, according to mynorthwest.com. Lavin probably does have a soul, but he's giving voice to thoughts that perhaps others won't yet acknowledge: Should there be a point at which enough is enough?
Why the Panda Deserves Our Help
Defenders of the panda say "No" — if we go down, we will go down fighting. They charge that naysayers like Lavin write stories like these "mostly because it is easier and garners more page views to be boldly wrong than boringly right."
Pandas are not "evolutionary failures." To the contrary, we failed them. Before we came along, for three millions years or so, pandas sustained themselves admirably by mating and reproducing exactly as they do now, eating exactly what they eat now. The panda's unique proclivities became "a problem" for their survival only after people arrived.
We then eradicated their habitat, wiped out their food supply, poached them for their pretty hides, crammed them into preserves and watched their number dwindle to perilously low levels.
"The panda can't start giving birth more often because it's critically endangered; that's not how this works," noted Dan Nosowitz of PopSci.com. "If you were told that the human race now suddenly depends on being able to give birth every other month and subsisting on oak leaves, it's not like you could just do that." Well said, Dan. The panda's not to blame for this mess. We are.
Yet the question lingers. It's sort of a "Sophie's Choice" scenario: If we can do more good for other species with the millions we're spending on pandas, should we cut our losses, consign the panda to history and help the others instead?
It's a sad state of affairs when humanity has so destroyed an ecosystem that it's necessary to debate the wisdom of attempting to save a beloved animal. Oh pandas, we do adore you – but if you have no habitat in which to survive, how can we save you? Many of us still want to try.

And let's not forget those foul mouthed dregs of society Timothy Lavin and Chris Packham clowns. I'd vote to off a million of their type to save one panda.
I beg to differ: Brian Barrett and Sam Biddle, David Plotz, Lu Zhi, David Bellamy and all the other mentally deranged outcasts of humanity are the evolutionary dead ends that should be made to go extinct.
Seriously, give up on trying to save pandas???? This is, by far, one of the most ridiculous articles I have ever come across.
Of course we should not give up on them.........like Camilla posted, we should not give up on any animals {at least all the non~humans}.
I'm waiting for the latest panda story to hit Care2. On the UK national news today were 14 - yes 14 - small baby pandas, lined up in order of size in two rows of seven. They had all been born in China by AI, and the idea is not to release them into the wild, but to hire them out to foreign zoos at about half a million pounds per year. Any resulting young would be the property of the Chinese.
I know exactly what the comments here will be when this story comes!
Let's do what we can to save them.
I am so sorry for this Lavin guy. What a poor mind.
Thank you for the article.
No way! We should never give up any animals including wildlife.
