text: Since there is a snowstorm a-brewing around Chicago this morning and I work in a basement, I am watching the progress on weather webcams. The closest cam to me, though, is 10 miles away. So, I'm wondering what it would take to setup my own weather cam? Are there webcams that can function connected directly to a router or does it have to run through a PC?

It's gonna be one helluva fall when they tank...
it's a bubble that's going to burst so loud and it will have severe economic consequences..
Posted 18 September 2012 - 12:15
You can't burst a solid.
It's also worth thinking of the fragility of our financial markets generally. The federal government currently borrows ten-year money at 1.42 percent. Our government debt is rapidly approaching the levels last seen at the end of World War II. We have no plan for regaining control over the budget. The Fed has exhausted every tool of monetary policy and has, indeed, risked creating a huge inflationary problem down the road.
The truth is that 1.42 percent is an insanely low yield for a borrower in the shape that the government is in today. Sooner or later, the government bond market will correct (it would do so much faster if the Fed stood back) and there will be an inevitable rebound on to equities.
So much for the general argument. The specifics on Apple are no more cheering. Analysts expected third quarter revenues to come in at $37 billion; they came in at $35 billion. The miss on earnings was even worse: analysts had penciled in $10.36 a share, and the outcome was more than a dollar per share worse than that at $9.32.
Sales of iPods fell. Sales of Macs were flat. Sales of iPhones were up on the year, but sharply down on the prior quarter. Sales of tablets were excellent, but the competitive background is changing fast. The new iPhone is great, but it's not a game-changer the way the first one was. It's kind of like the Rocky films. Rocky 15 just won't lift the heart the way the very first one did.
Now at this point, I should probably reiterate what I said at the start. I love this company's products. I think the company that Jobs built is the most impressive American company to have emerged since the days of Ford and General Electric. But those judgments are different from judgments about valuation. The results just announced are not the results of a gravity-defying company, but of one governed by the same laws of competition that everyone else faces too.
People haven't got bored of smart phones or of anything else that Apple makes. But sometimes, as an investor, you have to stand back and ask, really? And the question here is really twofold. One, can Apple's top line growth continue when its markets are becoming relentlessly competitive? Two, can Apple's near 40 percent operating margin persist when every big electronics and Internet company on the planet is out to steal the firm's lunch?
Posted 18 September 2012 - 12:45
Whilst you're happy calling people dolts, your explanation makes absolutely no sense - you do not seem to understand what a stock market bubble is. Stock market bubbles have nothing to do with manufacturing, a bubble means that stock is priced above its real-world value. By this definition, it's valid to claim that Apple stock is bubbling.
Do you two dolts know the God damned definition of a bubble? A bubble means there is nothing there. The internet was a bubble. Stocks are a bubble. Mortgages are a bubble. Apple is not a bubble. Apple actually manufactures things. It is 100% tangible.
Posted 18 September 2012 - 12:55
Nobody cares about these numbers anymore really.. to most objective people (even investors) this is insanity. A company that has 80% of their revenue on 2 products is valued more than other companies with diversified revenues.
Posted 18 September 2012 - 13:40
That's like saying Ford makes all it's money on 1 product (cars).
Posted 18 September 2012 - 13:49
Hell, even the luxury brands don't sell only 2 car models. Lamborghini, Porsche, Mercedes, Audi all have tons of different models and "form factors" for their vehicles.
Posted 18 September 2012 - 13:50
Posted 18 September 2012 - 13:53
iPod, iPad (2, maybe 3 soon), iPhone, Mac Mini, Macbook (Air, Pro, and Retina), iMac, Mac Pro, Apple TV, Airport Express/Extreme...
And that's only the hardware side. They are the largest vertically integrated tech company on the planet, at the moment. iTunes / App Store -> iOS -> iPod/Pad, OSX -> PC.
There's also the small fact that they sell a ton of computers to college students. If you asked me what their future earning potential is, I'd say it's absolutely gigantic.

This quilt top was finished and sent off to it's new owner last week…when I should have been packing up to move and sewing instead.
I love these soothing "sea glass" colors. I backed this one in an aqua cuddle fabric with batting inside…it is so heavy and warm. There is some info on quilting with a minky back in this post, and there is some more info and sizing on how to make the top in this post.
We moved last week to a new home in the same town. Moving with little kids in 90 degree weather is so much fun…said no one ever.
My sewing room looks like this:
Of course it was the first room I wanted to unpack…but the kids seemed to think they need clothes and beds and toys unpacked first…whiners. ;) So at this rate I'll have it unpacked in about a year and I'll show you a better picture. For now though I'm going to ignore this big mess and take the kids to the beach…happy summer!

SLU Promotes Newest 'Be A Billiken' Videos
Saint Louis University recently launched its newest online components to the "Be a Billiken" undergraduate recruitment campaign, and current and prospective SLU students already are responding with approval.
Aimed at high school students who are considering attending SLU, the "Be a Billiken" campaign uses the University's beloved mascot to show prospective students that a SLU education is as unique as the Billiken himself. A new batch of videos on BeABilliken.com features many of the University's premier students and showcases the value and breadth of a SLU education in the Jesuit tradition. The new videos have been in rotation since early August, and current and prospective students share these and other SLU items on Twitter and Facebook.
New videos since August include:
- "What Is a Billiken?" which speaks to SLU's uniqueness
- "Be Brilliant," which focuses on SLU's academic rigor
- "Be Prepared," which touts SLU's academic reputation and students' options for the future
- "Be Successful: Seth's Story," which features a successful alumnus
- "Be Here," a student-led tour of St. Louis
Additional videos will be launched throughout the fall, including those that focus on spirituality, admission counselors, student life, service and more.
The comprehensive "Be a Billiken" campaign includes a new yearly viewbook, a targeted microsite, web videos, social media, emails, traditional advertising, and billboards, radio spots and movie theater commercials in targeted cities.
Since the "Be a Billiken" campaign began in 2008, it has been highly effective in attracting potential undergraduate students from both stronghold and expanding markets. The campaign contributed to bringing in one of the largest domestic freshman classes in SLU's history, and it helped achieve an 18% increase in applications.
While the "Be a Billiken" campaign primarily is the result of a strong partnership among enrollment management, student development and marketing and communications, many representatives and departments throughout the University have played key parts in the campaign's development.
SLU's marketing department recently held a celebration at the Saint Louis University Museum of Art for the students, photographers and videographers who have participated in the "Be a Billiken" campaign.

Ginger Quince Upside Down Cake
Quince are a funny little fruit. They look a bit like a squashed lumpy pear and depending on when you buy them they can be covered with a thin layer of fuzz. Their perfumed yellow flesh is hard and acidic and totally inedible when raw, but when they are cooked something amazing happens. The quince softens and turns the most lovely rosy red color and can be used in a number of preparations including jelly, tarts, pies, membrillo to be eaten with cheese, or just simply poached and eaten with yogurt and granola or ice cream. They also can be added to apple or pear pastries to give them a little something extra.
Gingerbread is one of my favorite fall and winter treats and the addition of quince really takes this simple cake to a new level. It requires you to poach the quince before baking, but if you don't have the time you can easily substitute raw apples or pears. Or you can forgo the fruit all together and just sprinkle some crunchy sugar on top before baking, but then it wouldn't be an upside down cake and that's half the fun!
Poached Quince
recipe can be multiplied as needed
2 or 3 medium quince
3 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/2 lemon
2 strips orange zest
1t vanilla extract (use 1/2 a bean if you have it)
1/2 t cinnamon
1. Mix all of the ingredients, minus the quince, in a saucepan and bring to a simmer
2. While the mix is coming to a simmer, peel, core, and cut the quince into quarters. Be careful when cutting, quince are really hard. Plop them into the water as you go, and put a lid about 1/2 covering the pot.
3. Simmer until tender, at least an hour. This part will make your kitchen smell heavenly.
4. Let the quince cool in their syrup until ready to use.
Ginger Cake adapted from the Macrina Bakery and Cafe Cookbook
For the Topping
1 1/2 T room temp butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 to 3 poached quince (see above) cut into quarters, or apples, or pears
For the Cake
1 stick butter
6T light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/3 cup molasses
1T peeled grated ginger
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 t baking powder
3/4 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1 t cinnamon
1/4 t cloves
3/4 cups buttermilk
Preheat oven to 350. Butter a 7'' cake pan with high sides and line the bottom with an 8'' circle of parchment paper. Alternately, you can double this entire recipe (including the fruit) and use a 9'' or 10'' pan.
For the topping
1. In a medium saucepan combine the butter and brown sugar and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute. Pour the mixture into the bottom of your lined pan, then arrange the fruit on top in a decorative pattern making sure that the bottom of the pan is covered. Put pan aside.
For the Cake
1. Cream the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy, add the grated ginger and mix 1 more minute.
2. Scrape down the bowl and add the eggs one at a time. Then slowly pour in the molasses.
3. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves.
4. Alternately add the flour mixture and the buttermilk to the batter, being careful not to overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
6. Bake for 45 minutes or until lightly golden brown, a toothpick should come out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a plate and gently peel away the parchment paper.
Eat warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream, then eat the leftovers for breakfast.

I feel warmer looking at these photos, totally totally gorgeous cake.ReplyDelete
Is molasses kind of the same thing as syrup? Can I just use syrup?
beautiful pics yossy!ReplyDelete
Yo Ellie! You could totally sub maple or golden syrup. The flavor will be a bit mild though, my mom made it with date molasses and said it was delish.ReplyDelete
Thanks Kea!
Yossy this is wonderful! I'm going to try it this weekend. I hope I can make it half as good as it looks!ReplyDelete
YUM!!!! Beautiful!ReplyDelete
I have been lusting after the beautiful Quince at farmers market, and now I have something I can do with them! I love Apt B Yossi! Beautiful work:)ReplyDelete
Thanks Carla! This cake is awesome, my pal just made it with apples instead of quince and it was a big hit, but I love quince. They are a magical fruit!ReplyDelete
Gingerbread and quince? I had to make it. It's in the oven now--I had a 6 and 8 inch pan so I went smaller. We'll see.ReplyDelete

I just received one of the Snider Enfield rifles from IMA. It is from the big armory Cache they bought a few years ago in Nepal. Anyhow I bought a box of ammo to go with it & thought
I'd show a pic for the big bore AK dreamers. Heh....Heh. This is next to .50 Beowolf, 5.45 x 39 & a 45 Colt. It's about the same length as the 5.45 x 39. But fatter. bullet is 480 grains.

Salt or Pepper Shaker, One of Pair
These salt and pepper shakers were inspired by small figurines thought to represent native South American Aztec gods and goddesses, such as the one illustrated here. The newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst purchased twelve sets of the shakers (one pair for each place setting) to add to an elaborate silver dinner service by Tiffany & Company that featured North American Indian figures on the handles of the silverware. Hearst also owned the large Tiffany & Company silver tray in this gallery, which replicates the famous ancient Aztec calendar stone.

St. Johns Reads Short Story Contest Winner
St. Johns County Public Library System
Murder/Mystery Short Story Contest
copyright 2012
Marcella Ann Beeching
I sat across the table from Roger as I had done many times before in the eight years I had known him. But this time was different. As I watched, his face softened slightly. His eyes drifted left with a faraway look in them. He began to speak of a long ago memory . . .
He had been transferred to his seventh foster home in less than four years. He was tall for ten and should have been in the fourth grade, but instead was relegated to the third because of his patchy periods of education. The charitable nuns at Holy Angels School had kept his actual age a secret. Third graders could be cruel, some without thought and some without care.
He sat at the edge of the playground, contemplating yet another retreat to delinquency, scanning the area for a likely escape. The Sisters were deployed at regular intervals around the lot and were quite attentive to the goings-on at playtime. His attention was centered on the far left corner when he heard a voice from his right.
"I saw you sitting here without lunch, so I came over."
He looked up and saw a short, stout girl with freckles and pigtails. Her name was Marcie and she was by far the brightest child in class. Without invitation she sat down next to him and opened her red plaid lunch box. She took out a square parcel and carefully began to unfold the wax paper wrapping. She looked at him and smiled. "It's Friday in Lent, so it's probably tuna salad or peanut butter and honey." She lifted the edge of the white bread toast and her face took on a sort of glow as she happily exclaimed, "It's tuna. On toast."
The sandwich and wrapping lay on her lap and she reached back into the box for a small flat bag of potato chips. "The chips sometimes get crushed because the cradle for my milk is wobbly and the thermos escapes and rolls over everything."
She gently grabbed the front and back of the bag and tugged. A few errant chips flew out but the rest settled back into the bottom of their container. Marcie lifted the corner of one half of the sandwich, sprinkling the salty crumbs on top of a beige mass that smelled very fishy. She repeated the process with the other half. "The chips add a crunch to the sandwich, so I like them better between the bread."
Picking up one half with her right hand and closing her left around the wax paper holding the other, she extended her arm to him. "Try it. It's really good."
He looked down at the tuna and white bread, flat from the milk bottle, with crushed up potato chips inside. He took it from her and wrapped the wax paper back around the sandwich. "Maybe later. I'm not too hungry right now."
She munched her half in small ladylike bites, regaling him with chatter in between. He sat looking at her, saying nothing. Her offer to share her beverage was rebuffed with a curt head shake, but she remained undaunted. She washed down her final bit of bread with her last swallow of milk and repacked her red box. Finally, she got to her feet, extended a hand to him and said, "My name is Marcie. Thank you for sharing lunch with me." She smiled and walked off, a jaunty lilt to her steps and a happy swing in her arms.
He sat staring after her. The bell rang and he was suddenly aware of the bizarre half sandwich he still held in his hand. He stood up and gently tucked it into the pocket of his jacket and zipped up the flap. Then he followed her steps across the playground, back toward the school.
Roger turned back to face me. I met his eyes and could only wait for the story's end.
He hesitated a moment, blinking back tears for the kindness of a little girl for a broken stranger.
"After school, I walked down to the river and stared at that curious bundle for a long time. Then I ate it. It was a horrible combination, but nothing before or since has ever tasted that good to me."
I reached over and touched his hand. Soon we heard measured steps coming our way and the jingle-jangle of keys. The prison guard stopped outside the bars and said flippantly, "Well, Mr. Death Watch, what will your last meal be?"
I turned, my voice shaking in cold fury. "His name is Mr. Beatty."
The guard smirked. "Right, Ms. Lawyer."
Then he looked again at Roger and repeated, "What'll it be?"
With great dignity, Roger looked the uniformed man in the eyes and spoke calmly and quietly.
"Tuna fish on white bread toast with potato chips and milk."
My own eyes filled, knowing he would give me half and that I would eat it tomorrow, alone, by the river.

Oxoid, one of the world's leading manufacturers of culture media and diagnostic tests used in the clinical, food and pharmaceutical industries, are proud to announce that their Basingstoke manufacturing site has won the Judges' Special Award in the 2004 Best Factory Awards, organised in the UK by the Cranfield University School of Management and Works Management magazine.
In presenting Oxoid with their Special Award the judges highlighted the clear and structured process by which the company translated its objectives of product excellence, customer service, employee satisfaction and lowest cost into a successful world class manufacturing strategy.
Oxoid began its World Class Programme in 1999, it now extends across all Operations departments through the work of 14 teams coordinated by a Continuous Improvement Steering Group.
Fundamental to the Programme is the adoption of Best Business Practices and a comprehensive set of performance measures. John Dunn, Oxoid's Operations Improvement Manager, further explains that Continuous improvement in performance is driven by the teams setting their own goals and objectives and also by educating the teams in the use of techniques such as Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and 5s (sort, set limits, shine & sweep, standardize and sustain) for workplace organization. In summary we have achieved a real change in culture by creating an environment where all employees can contribute to continuous improvement. The results speak for themselves with on-time dispatches up from 85% in 2000 to 95% in 2003, and increased volume output per man-hour up by 44% since 1998.
I was truly delighted to receive this Award on Oxoid's behalf, comments Mike Housham, Vice President of Operations , it gives well deserved public recognition, to everyone involved in Operations at our Basingstoke site, for the tremendous improvements that they have made, and continue to make, to ensure that our products are the finest in the marketplace.

Discount Security was founded in 1999 by professional CCTV technicians. Since then, thousands of our security camera systems and CCTV digital video recorders have been installed worldwide.
We know what works and what doesn't work. We constantly evaluate CCTV products from all over the world and test them personally. We pick only the best quality, most reliable, and cost-effective equipment to offer.
We train all of our sales staff on the surveillance products so they know what to recommend for your application, and we make sure that the technical support staff has the knowledge and experience needed to support you after the sale.
Over half of our clients are installers and resellers. This way we get constant feedback about how well the equipment is performing in real world environments.
The security cameras and video recorders you see on our site are the same quality as the big well known brands. It all comes from manufacturers in Asia. But our prices are better because there's no high priced middleman to pay.
"Thank you for your prompt attention to our order and getting it out right away. We are very pleased with your response time and will be ordering from you again. Thank you again!"
"Just a few lines to let you know that I'm a very happy customer, having purchased a system from DSC a few years ago I'm back to upgrade some of my cameras and happy to report that the quality and service is excellent as was a few years back. Thank you."
"I've ordered several times now and each time the service and speed were outstanding. Thanks for superb customer service."
"We are incredibly happy with our new system. We were able to install and configure everything with minimal effort. Rob was crucial to the project. He made sure we were happy with our system and that things went as smoothly as possible."
"I would like to say that your products and service are great. This was my third order with your company and it has been fantastic."
"I received the camera and installed it only to find that this camera is better than the ones I spent $85 on. Resolution is better. Field of view is better, and the IRs are fantastic. I'm able to see to the edge of my property in total darkness. Very impressive camera for a very minimal price. Between the excellent equipment, quick shipping, and the customer service, I won't be shopping anywhere else.
Thank you DSC."
"Thank you. Your company is very prompt and courteous and the camera housing is exactly what we were looking for and have been using to mount cameras in an outdoor environment. "
"My orders from DSC are always filled and shipped promptly. The support staff is dedicated and work diligently to resolve any problems (although problems rarely occur).
I have been a customer since 2001 and will continue to shop with DSC."
"Thank you for the follow up, I appreciate you having the part I needed and timely delivery. No complaints here. I will likely be shopping on your site in the future for any needs."
"Bought IRB700 as a replacement for an original installation camera which succumbed to the weather. Good sharp picture and beautiful color - night image very good. Can not say enough good things about the customer service at this company. When made aware of an installation problem with the first camera shipped they called me, offered, and immediately shipped another camera without any hassle and followed up to ensure that I was satisfied. This is that rare type of customer service which one rarely encounters on internet sales sites. This was my second purchase from this company and it will not be my last."
"Thank you for your excellent and quick service!"
"Everything in my order was correct and all the cameras worked great."
"I've ordered a number of items from DSC over the past 3 or 4 years. I have never been disappointed. This last order was received phenomenally quick! Your competitive pricing and product selection causes me to always try DSC first (and I seldom have to go further)."
"I am 100% satisfied with both cameras. They were easy to install, have great range and clarity, for the cost you can't beat them. There was a minor setback with 1 of the bullet cameras but your team corrected the problem with a quick turn around. I will be ordering more of these cameras and other products again."
"I had a great buying experience. Great product, great service and FAST shipping. Triple-play!"
"My recent purchase was to finish the installation of the 8 camera/DVR system I bought from DSC a couple of weeks ago. Josh was extremely helpful during the order process and answered every question I had. He even looked up my address on Google earth and assisted me with camera placement while we both looked at my house on our own computers at the same time. After installation, all of the tech support guys...Leonard, Julius, Jeff, know me by now I'm sure because of my constant calls to program certain things on the DVR as well as set up remote access from a computer. Not once did any of them sound annoyed or have any hint of aggravation in their voices due to my numerous calls. For a guy like me who's not the best with setting up these type of units, I'm sure glad I bought from you guys and that I can count on the professionals at DSC if I need some help."
"The cameras work great. I will be purchasing more from you in the future."
"I have ordered parts 3 times recently. Each time I was pleased with the quick response.
After the first two orders arrived, and I still couldn't make the proper connections, I called your facility. Between the sales department and the the tech group it got straightened out. Had I called before the first order I probably would have saved a lot of time.
Thanks for the help."
"This was my 3rd purchase from DSC and my first returned defective item. I am very pleased how quickly DSC returned the new replacement camera, it has been installed and works fine. I have plans to buy more cameras from DSC in the next few days. Thank you for your responsive and professional manner in which you resolved this issue. I will recommend DSC to my fellow property managers."
"Once again, great experience and very quick shipping. Thanks."

Field Trips
The Zoo is a fabulous outdoor classroom and the zoo staff is anxious to assist teachers, making school field trips to the Alexandria Zoo experiences to remember while reinforcing classroom teaching.
Know Before You Go
Download the Know Before You Go booklet, an educator's guide to a successful field trip.
Reserve Your Field Trip Online
Discount admission rates ($4.50 per person) and discount train tickets ($1.00 per person) are available for groups of 15 or more that enter the zoo together and are paid for in one transaction. Group rates are available for schools, churches, assisted care facilities, and other organizations. All chaperones may be included in the group rate if they wish to enter the Zoo with the group/class and are paid for with the group. One payment can cover admission and train tickets. Anyone paying individually will be charged the regular admission fee. Teachers and bus drivers are admitted free.
Cash, business/organization check, cashier check or credit card payment is accepted. School or business purchase orders can be accepted if arrangements are made with the Zoo office at least one week prior to your visit. Refunds will not be given once a group has entered the Zoo. Unused train tickets are nonrefundable but can be used on another visit. All rates and fees are subject to change.
|Reservations are Required
Field trips are welcomed at the zoo anytime during the year. Reservations are required and we recommend you make arrangements at least two weeks prior to your visit. During the spring, be sure to reserve at least a month in advance.
The months of March, April, and May are extremely busy, especially on Fridays, so consider Monday through Thursday. Sometimes it is necessary to limit the number of groups visiting each day to prevent overcrowding. Fall is also a great time to visit the zoo.
|Arranging for Education Programs and Special Activities
The Education Department can assist teachers with activity ideas. Scavenger hunts, observation sheets, animal trivia quizzes or animal fact sheets are available upon request. Education programs featuring amazing small creatures, videos and more can be scheduled in advance at no additional cost. Lessons are customized to adhere to Louisiana's state-mandated standards of learning and are taught using scientific inquiry.
Contact the Education Department at 318-441-6810 to discuss program options for your grade level.
|Free Teacher Visits
Teachers can visit the Zoo prior to a class visit. Call the Education Department to arrange your free visit.
|School IDs or Name Tags
School IDs or name tags should be worn by students and teachers. These can be wrist bands, adhesive tags, or may be attached to the student with string. Please DO NOT use safety or straight pins as they are a serious health hazard to the animals if they fall off. Please include the name of the child, teacher's name, and school on tags.
|Bus Unloading and Parking
Buses should unload students at the Front Entrance. Bus parking is available behind Bringhurst Park Baseball Complex.
|Picnic Areas
The picnic area inside the Zoo is limited and cannot be reserved. Picnic areas inside the zoo include the playground and Picnic Pavilion. Seating at the tables at the Palm Cafe is reserved for customers only.
Public areas are available adjacent to the zoo grounds. The shaded, grassy area in the front zoo parking lot, Big Island, and City Park all have areas that can accomodate picnicing groups. Bringhurst Park has a larger playground and splash pad. Teachers can receive a hand stamp that will allow the entire class to re-enter the Zoo after lunch outside the Zoo.
No glass containers or straws should be brought into the Zoo. Due to lack of space, we do not provide monitored lunch storage. Ice chests are allowed but are the responsibility of the group.
|Palm Cafe
You may contact the Palm Cafe (318-441-6836 or 318-308-3298) for lunch arrangements. The Palm Cafe is operated by a private vendor and all arrangements should be made directly with the Cafe. Prior arrangements for lunch CANNOT be made through the Zoo offices. The Palm Cafe requests a final count at least one week before your scheduled field trip, and requires a 24 hour cancellation notice.
Kids options include hot dog, corn dog, or ham and cheese hoagie meals. Adult options include hamburger or cheeseburger meals. For an additional charge, sno cones are also available.
|Zootique Gift Shop
The Zootique is open from 10 am - 5 pm. Teachers may contact the Zootique (318-441-6820) prior to a scheduled visit to arrange for souvenir bags to be prepared for each student. (The Zootique requires a minimum 1 week notice.) The Zootique manager will work with teachers to prepare bags at an agreed upon price. During busy times at the Zoo, Management may limit the number of students visiting the Zootique at one time.

When browsing in Design Toscano, you should never leave without looking at all the exciting items that are on sale in our large marble busts for sale section; it's not just busts anymore. One of the most exquisite is a bust though and that is the Nubian Kandake Sculptural Bust. A "kandake" is a queen and this Nubian queen is cast in designer resin and has been marvelously hand painted in excellent detail for any African décor.
Other African and also Indian statues that add delight to that décor in the yard are our outdoor elephant statues. One of the favorites of the statues is The Herd Elephant Sculpture. These are three triumphant elephants standing on garden stones and adding a touch of Africa to your garden.
Everyone loves the Design Toscano Meerkat sculpture of those fun little kats that like to dig around the yard. So we now have some new little friends to join the kats in your yard and these are our Burrowing Buddies Garden Gophers Sculpture. These gophers may just take the cuteness award away from the Meerkats as they stick their little heads out of the garden. This sculpture is two feet long and they are hand painted.

Section on Pulmonary, Critical Care, Allergy and Immunologic Diseases at Wake
Forest School of Medicine provides an exciting array of educational
opportunities to our trainees. The primary goals and objectives of our
Pulmonary/Critical Care fellowship training program are to assure each
trainee's acquisition of the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors essential
to the independent practice of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine. The
development of skills essential to the consistent practice of state of the art,
evidence-based medicine, with exemplary professionalism and awareness of the
humanistic aspects of care are our major goals.
three-year curriculum is designed to provide each fellow with the clinical and
investigational skills to excel in a career in academic medicine. The rigorous
protection of fellows' time for academic pursuit and consistent oversight of
the research experience is provided by our divisional research committee.
Through this mechanism the plan for each fellow's scholarly experience is
addressed in detail. Working with a faculty mentor who has particular expertise
in the area of investigation, each fellow's time is designed to facilitate
their specific career goals and result in scholarly productivity.
dramatic growth and quality of our Pulmonary/Critical Care Division has been
recognized through a variety of external measures. The extension of our
fellowship program's approval to five years in the most recent review by the
Residency Review Committee represents the maximum cycle length afforded by the
ACGME. We believe that the external recognition of our institution as one of the
best Respiratory programs in the country by the US News and World Report also
reflects very positively upon our fellowship program because of the integral
relationship between fellow curriculum and our expanded clinical activities.
This level of externally recognized quality accounts for consistently
successful recruitment of Fellows from a nationwide pool.

Moderators: Tonyblack, Jason, Toothy
The whole concept of the Silver Horde has annoyed me ever since I first read this book. Granted Cohen and Teach are almost the only developed characters among the horde, but the idea that they can still defeat overwhelming forces BECAUSE THEY'VE LEARNED HOW THROUGH EXPERIENCE is pushing the concept of learning by experience farther than it can go. I don't find them funny--but rather a bit sad.

Platinum spark plugs last much longer than conventional spark plugs and perform more consistently over the course of their service life.
While platinum is an extremely durable material, that durability comes with a price. Platinum is an expensive precious metal, costing in the neighborhood of $400 an ounce. At NGK we use a large amount of platinum in our spark plugs. That large amount of platinum is naturally going to cost more. We think it's worth it.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords Summary
Latest news
Plenty of classics on offer in the Star Wars Humble Bundle
You can grab hold of a bumper package of great Star Wars games in the latest deal over on the Humble Bundle site, including classic hits from BioWare and Lucasarts.
Available right now are peerless RPG Knights of the Old Republic, the excellent Jedi Academy, classic shooter Dark Forces and more.
GameWatcher's Star Wars Marathon live streaming this Friday at 8.00pm GMT
At the end of the week we'll be geeking out with our very own Star Wars Marathon for your viewing pleasure. Chris Capel will be feeling the Force... of your votes! Every good Imperial citizen and even Rebel scum are welcome at the polls.
Thanks to the recent GOG.com launch of many Star Wars classics, a marathon is finally within our grasp. Will the Empire rule in Empire at War? Will Carth ever shut up in Knights of the Old Republic?
Obsidian really want to work on Knights of the Old Republic 3
Obsidian have currently got their hands full with Pillars of Eternity, but they'd love to return to the Star Wars universe for Knight of the Old Republic 3.
They'd love it so much, in fact that according to producer Brandon Adler they talk about it "every three to six months."
Lucasfilm decree future Star Wars video games 'will be canon'
In case you were unaware, Lucasfilm has 'freed themselves' of the Star Wars Expanded Universe by declaring it not official canon to Star Wars. That's so they're free to explore the new trilogy in the works.
However it also means that every game up until this point is also outside the canon, but Lucasfilm have said every new title from this moment on will be considered official.
Obsidian "continue to call up" publishers for RPGs, "any opportunity" for Star Wars
A Skyrim-sized RPG from Obsidian Entertainment? Co-founder Feargus Urquhart would love that kind of project, and it's why publishers continue 'making sense' for those types of games as they cost tens of millions.
Barring Star Citizen, crowd-funding just can't funnel that kind of money into huge RPGs. Urquhart admits the studio keep badgering publishers for work on big names.

Who's in, who's out this weekPosted by on December 7, 2012 – 2:52 pm
Linebacker LaMarr Woodley (ankle) is one of three players ruled out for Sunday's game against the San Diego Chargers at Heinz Field. Also out are tackle Mike Adams (ankle) and cornerback Ike Taylor (ankle). Quarterback Byron Leftwich (ribs) is questionable.
Probable for the game are WR Antonio Brown (ankle), P Drew Butler (illness), S Ryan Clark (hip), T Willie Colon (knee), WR Jerricho Cotchery (ribs), RB Will Johnson (concussion), S Troy Polamalu (not injury related), QB Ben Roethlisberger (right shoulder), WR Emmanuel Sanders (shoulder), and WR Mike Wallace (knee).
"I feel like we're getting healthier," said linebacker James Harrison. "You always want to be healthy when you're trying to make a run to the playoffs. I guess it is good timing. We lost Ike. That's a place where we're going to have to have younger guys step in and do the job.
Harrison said the defense will not change what they do without Taylor on the field.
"We won't change what we do," said Harrison. "The next guy in line is going to come in and play just as good, if not better. That's what we're hoping for. That's the standard that we have."

Today, a discussion about email clients (actually raster going mad over something thunderbird did) provided me with this interesting link:
The guy is talking about new ways to design (and he obviously is into design by the looks of the page...) email clients. Since Webcit is something along that line and I am always seeking inspiration, I want to hear what you are thinking about his ideas (that Schneider's ideas, not rasters!)
/* now off diving into the source of the login modal*/
hehe, I like some of his concepts, but personally I am not really convinced about the actionsteps approach. what is your opinion about that?
Would this imply that we should be able to tag mails consistently so it might be usable from fatclients?
Anyway, I like some of his style guidelines and the overall idea of a searchable/browsable list of attachments. But this would probably require some heavy work in citadel server.
WRT login modal:
There is an easy fix in order to let opera mobile users log in. The downside is that it gets a little less beautiful. Also tinymce does not work in opera mobile at all, it loads but I was not able to enter the message text. This might be fixed with a tinymce update, will try that later.
Now whats the easiest way on debugging android browser? Somebody mentioned android running inside of virtual machines... Also are there major differences between the various flavours of android?
I was considering buying a Childpad for my son to fool around, that would give me access to an android4. Maybe I can find old and cheap 2.x devices on ebay.
yea, realy like that attachment thingabob.
the flags would probably require something similar people would like to do via imap too; there is a spec to add custom flags to emails, which we don't support.
imho at least some of his designs waste lots of space; so while some of the concepts might be nice, I don't like the desgin.

Is this on a To Do list? Or at least a "things to consider for citadel 10" list? :D
imho at least some of his designs waste lots of space; so while some of the concepts might be nice, I don't like the desgin.
The Design is definetly too macintoshed, the idea of not having icons but wishing to have avatars for people/mails is something i consider insconsistent, too.
Anyway, you often have "waste of space" issues I do not fully understand. Could you provide some screenshots? Just use paint and mark things with a bright read brush ghoulishly.
My design reworks are going quite well, I only need to fight some battles with js. And I am really saving space this time, it is almost minimalistic.

Unless your name is "YouTube," it is TOTALLY RUDE AND OBNOXIOUS to automatically begin a video playback when I land on a page. This is even more true if the video has nothing to do with the reason I went to the page.
I expect this kind of rude and obnoxious behavior from bottom feeders (along with the "Wait! You can't leave, you have to take advantage of our special offer!!1" when I try to navigate away), but it's particularly egregious when it's done by a site that's trying to be reputable.

Battling the "Gimmes": Tips for Raising Empathetic Children
If your children have developed a case of the "gimmes," you're not alone. According to Ken Haller, M.D., associate professor of pediatrics at Saint Louis University, many children (and parents) become so focused on wish lists that they forget the giving spirit of Christmas.
"From a developmental standpoint, it's very important for children to develop some sense of the needs of others if they are going to be successful in the world and relate well to other children and adults in society," says Haller, a SLUCare pediatrician.
"It's important for them to develop empathy and realize that the gifts they have received are best appreciated when they are shared with others."
Giving should become a normal part of the way a family operates, not just an add-on during the holiday season, Haller says. Here are a few of his recommendations to help make charity tangible:
- Look for opportunities to give. Participate in canned food drives, collections for holiday toys and warm clothing/blanket drives at school and other places in the community. If your church, synagogue or mosque has service projects, encourage your child to join in.
- Make sure your child sees you giving. Parents should model the behavior they want to see in their children.
- Use allowance time as a teachable moment. When you start paying allowance, give your child three containers labeled "spend," "save" and "share." When you pay allowance, give it to your child in small bills or coins and tell him or her to put some money in each jar. That way he or she has spending money for treats now, saves for something bigger tomorrow and shares with those who are less fortunate.

It's here: the new BMW M4 Coupe
Concept version of range-topping 4-Series revealed, ahead of Pebble Beach debut
Posted: 15 Aug 2013
That 'power dome' on the bonnet. The huge front apron and front splitter. The muscular sills and those famous quad exhaust pipes. Yep, it's here: meet the concept BMW M4 Coupe.
Don't be too fooled by the concept tag, because we're pretty certain this is how the production version of BMW's iconic sports coupe will look, and doesn't it look...mighty?
Let's start with the front. As mentioned, there's that classic power dome on the bonnet, a tiny M4 emblem - a badge seen here for the first time - attached to the double-bar kidney grille, a new front apron and a carbon fibre front splitter. There are three large air intakes too, which "supply the high performance power unit with sufficient cooling air". Sadly, we are not told what this high performance power unit is, but we have a fair idea. More of that below.
It's difficult to tell from these shots whether the wheel arches have been pumped up, but we're told the new M4 Coupe gets a carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof, lowering the centre of gravity etc etc. There are 'M gills' that work with the front apron to ventilate the wheel arches too, filled by 20in light alloys.
Finally, you get to the rear: four exhaust pipes as per The M Rules, a taller bootlid for aero, flat taillights, a carbon fibre rear diffuser and sculpted rear apron. And that's all we're told.
Looks like a proper M car, doesn't it? Though BMW is being shy with the tech stuff, we have an idea of what some of the meat will taste like: it'll most probably sport a modified version of the 435i's 3.0-litre turbocharged six-pot engine up front, producing somewhere around 450bhp, together with a DCT gearbox and a limited slip diff. It'll also be lightweight, and it'll be suitably hardcore. There might - might - even be a hardcore CSL version in the works, too, so imagine this on lovelier rims and a revised front apron. Of course, none of this is official, but we'll report back as soon as BMW makes it so.
"The BMW Concept M4 Coupe reflects the BMW M philosophy in ideal form," says M chief Dr Friedrich Nitschke. "It combines motor racing genes and unrestricted everyday suitability in a highly emotional overall concept. For four generations, the BMW M3 has put motor racing on the road, and the BMW Concept M4 Coupe consistently continues to pursue this fundamental idea."
What do you think, TopGear.commers?

I'm trying to convert a string into a date type. This is the wasy bit but I want to convert it into a US format from a GB format. The code I have is as follows

myDate defaults back to the GB style date.
