I can't understand all the negative reviews. Using the downloadable Windows installer for my Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit machine, it works like a charm. It could be slightly more intuitive; however, it is easy to figure out if you ever used any type of labeling or greeting card software in the past (just two of many I've bought and used are Art Explosion Pro, Hallmark software, etc). Not quite as robust as Art Explosion, of course, but for free software it is quite the deal.
The program does allow me to save my address label projects (have not tried a greeting card yet, but will update once I do). It does allow reopening saved project files with no problem other than having to look at the bottom center of the Open a Saved Project tab screen once the program launches to see the correct link (middle center defaults to your online Avery account - not a deal breaker for me either way, but do prefer local machine storage as I backup regularly via Macrium Reflect free edition and Google drive).
Also, truthfully, the program does take a little longer to save and open a project than it really should, as I am using an AMD FX-6300 MHz processor, which normally blazes through whatever I through at it...this is the first program that has a several second delay when saving and opening, as well as when printing. But for free, can't complain too much.
I was ready to run when I saw the reviews, but past experience (about 8 years ago I think) with Avery software helped take a gamble, and it was well worth the roll of the dice. And did I mention, it is free?

This software is missing features that were available in DesignPro. You can no longer specify where, on the physical page, the printing should start. You can no longer specify to print multiple copies of a given label on the same page. I am currently shopping for an alternative and am open to suggestions. In the meantime, I have to keep one computer on Windows 7 just to print labels.

I don't have time to learn how to use this. I am very computer savvy and I just wasted 20 minutes and still don't have printed labels. Whatever happened to templates built into Word documents? Why is this so complicated? I just want to print tabs. This is ridiculous.

a long download, not particularly intuitive. Finally got everything to look the right way after several crashes and it refuses to print. Sends stuff to the spool and just hangs on spooling on multiple printers that work perfect otherwise. A waste of 3 hours.

LISTEN!! Digital Music News: Sultry Soul, Japanese Koto, Scottish Lasses, Imagined Cinema Tunes
YOU can access almost 1,000 digital music albums directly through our AADL.org catalog. Stream or download as much as you like, DRM free, on any device you choose. No waiting for a copy. No due dates. Hooray!
The Raindoggs: Beat-Heavy, Darkened Mix of R&B and Soul
"One Armed Bandits" is a multifaceted album, each song having a distinctly different influence and flavor. There are wide variations, from funky to ethereal to highly danceable to dirge-like. Even with this wide palette, the group never loses its cohesive, identifiable sound -- wah-wah guitars, saucy horns, liberal use of electronics and samples, and sultry vocals. Influences for The Raindoggs include Tom Waits, Snoop Dogg, The Heavy, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, The Lounge Lizards, and Amy Winehouse.
Yumi Kurosawa: Melodic and Mixed World Tunes on Japanese Koto
Yumi Kurosawa was born and raised in Japan and began to study Koto when she was three. Her album, "Beginning of a Journey", offers an East-meets-West music experience. Not familiar with Koto? The traditional Japanese instrument is a kind of dulcimer, a board laced with plucked strings tuned with pyramidal blocks, set at intervals under each string, that give the curving surface the look of a mountainscape diorama. Other features on this recording include a violin ensemble, cello, trombone and computer sounds.
Susan Rode Morris: Early Music Delivered with a Voluptuous Voice and Intensely Focused Delivery
"Among the Lasses, songs of Robert Burns (1759-1796)" is the second in the trio collection of the beloved songs of Scotland's national poet Robert Burns. Soprano Susan Rode Morris and harpsichordist Phebe Craig offer a look at one way Burns heard his songs played, creating their own bass lines and arrangements based on their knowledge of 18th century music. Burns was not a composer, but a great collector of his national music. He took existing songs that were only partly remembered and rewrote the verses to "mend them". He set his poetry to his favorite fiddle or bagpipe tunes.
Ray Carl Daye: Atmospheric Ambient/Electronic Music
"Rapid Ear Movement", the second Magnatune release by Ray Carl Daye, is a diverse collection of electronic/ambient instrumentals full of emotion and creativity. The compositions range from the energetic, sequence-driven minimalism of "Endless Departure" and "Dervish Moon" to the radiant, melodic riff of "Aqua Lit". Other notable tracks are the sentimental, gentle meditation of "Quiet Remergence"; the glittering soundtrack-inspired "Elusian Spring" and cinematic atmosphere of "The Illuminated Earth". In all, "Rapid Ear Movement" presents fourteen short soundtracks for an imagined cinema.

When I first saw the black hole gear, I was pretty damn disappointed. Some items were an upgrade, a SLIGHT upgrade, over my Rakata stuff. But in most cases I'd actually LOSE a hefty chunk of strength. No. Way.
Whilst perusing the black hole stuff over the weekend, trying to see if I was mistaken about the total suckitude, I noticed that the heavy armor DPS set's chestpiece had significantly better-itemized stats for my class.
Well, as everyone knows, you can just strip the hell out of the mods etc and plop em in a medium armor shell. HAHA, I thought, I will just buy the heavy armor set.
But no! Some of the medium armor items are better than their heavy armor counterparts.
TL;DR – For the best armoring, mods, and enhancements for your stuff, you will probably want to mix and match between the foestopper (medium) and pummeler (heavy) sets – and obviously strip the mods on the pieces that aren't the right armor class. And then, after you're all geared up, and just ROLLING in BH comms, you can buy specific pieces just for one mod or enhancement to further tweak your set.
Now, I should warn you, I've been trying like a fiend to find an actual GUIDE on the mixing-matching for sentinels. A friend in-game mentioned such a guide for sages, but I can't seem to google up a specific BH/Rakata gearing strategy. So I'm using my own personal judgment here which, of course, is a dangerous thing.

Deak Parsons assembled the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima in the aircraft while on the way to Japan. It had to be done this way because of the danger of a crash on take-off with a primed bomb on board, with consequent catastrophe or "cook-out". Parsons, who hailed from rural New Mexico, was a Navy technical officer and a high-ranking member of the Los Alamos team, which he joined after leading the successful development of the proximity fuse for anti-aircraft artillery shells.

Future shaping with Morph by Nokia
If you have accidentally felt that you may be riding the tech wave with your super latest high tech gadget, Nokia might just be able to prove you wrong. Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge (UK) have put a lot of effort into creating the Morph.
The Morph is mobile handset indeed, but there's more to it. It's a nanotechnology-driven concept device, which is on display at the New York Museum of Modern Art for a taster of the time when today's super gadgets will be museum exhibits of prehistoric knowledge.
The Morph is a concept that shows what nanotechnology can bring to mobile devices: flexible materials, transparent electronics and self-cleaning surfaces. Stretchable and foldable, transformable to any shape a user can think of, Morph is the ultimate transformers gadget changing its shape according to the user's wishes. One day you have a bracelet, the next - you are up with a QWERTY device for messaging.
With Morph the door is just ajar and it will be years before some of the innovations it explores will start to appear in actual high-end handsets.

The Brownback administration has not ruled out implementing the Medicaid expansion called for in the federal health reform law.
But a spokesman today told members of the Legislature's Joint Committee on Health Policy Oversight that prior to making a decision administration officials want to develop their own estimate of how many Kansans are likely to sign up for the health care program and how much the expansion would cost the state.
"We're continuing to study the issue," said Mark Dugan, chief of staff for Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer. "We would like to come to you with our own numbers."
Issue Brief: ACA Medicaid Expansion: Enrollment and Cost Estimates for Kansas Policymakers
Currently, there are several competing estimates of how the expansion would affect Medicaid enrollment and the cost of the program. The latest, released earlier this month by the Kansas Health Institute indicated that approximately 240,000 additional low-income, disabled and elderly Kansans would enroll in a program that currently serves about 380,000. According to the KHI analysis, expanding Medicaid would cost the state an additional $519 million between its implementation in 2014 and 2020.
The KHI projections are higher than those in a 2010 report prepared for the now defunct Kansas Health Policy Authority and also higher than those in a state-by-state analysis done in 2010 by the Kaiser Family Foundation. However, they are considerably less than those estimated in 2011 by the Kansas Policy Institute, a conservative think-tank based in Wichita, which has opposed the Affordable Care Act.
The KHI News Service is an editorially independent program of KHI.
Currently, Kansas' Medicaid eligibility criteria for adults are among the most restrictive in the nation. Only those with children are eligible and only then if they earn less than 32 percent of the Federal Poverty Level — $5,900 a year for a family of four.
The ACA expansion would have a bigger impact in Kansas than many states. It would raise the eligibility threshold for all Kansans to 133 percent of FPL — $30,660 for a family of four.
Two of the four legislators who braved inclement weather to attend Thursday's meeting of the 12-member committee made it clear that they favored the expansion.
Rep. Don Hill, a moderate Republican from Emporia, said that virtually all legislators regardless of party and ideology agree that the current health care system is broken and in need of reform to lower costs and reduce the number of people who are either uninsured or under-insured.
He said while the ACA is far from perfect, "it has some redeeming elements." One of those, he said, is the Medicaid expansion because of its potential to extend coverage to many of the state's 365,000 uninsured.
Citing the federal government's promise to shoulder the cost of serving all those made eligible by the expansion for the first three years, Sen. David Haley, a Kansas City Democrat, asked, "Why can't we cover more Kansans and why shouldn't we?"
"I think we're going to take a good look at it," Dugan answered.
But, Dugan said, a factor that must be considered is whether or not the cash-strapped federal government can be counted on to keep its funding promise. After paying all of the costs of the expansion for three years, the federal government would gradually reduce its commitment until it reached 90 percent, where it would be maintained.
"He (Gov. Brownback) doesn't have a high degree of confidence in the federal government maintaining that 90 percent commitment over the long term," Dugan said.
Dugan said the federal government missed an opportunity to negotiate a compromise with Republican governors skeptical of the expansion when it rejected the idea of allowing states to increase eligibility to only 100 percent of FPL.
"That was an opportunity for middle ground that was lost," he said.

Forbes ranks Cintas in the top 10 of Large Cap businesses
CINCINNATI, – March 26, 2014 — Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ:CTAS) today announced it has again been named to Forbes' list of the "100 Most Trustworthy Companies in America." Developed to highlight America's most scrupulous organizations, the list recognizes transparency in accounting and governance. Ranked eighth in the Large Cap category, this is the third time Cintas has received the honor since Forbes began the list in 2008.
"Honesty and integrity are at the core of our business, and we are honored to be recognized by Forbes as one of the most trustworthy organizations in the U.S.," said Scott Farmer, CEO of Cintas. "This honor was made possible by the dedication and commitment of our employee-partners, and I am extremely proud of each and every one of them."
To develop the ranking, GMI reviews the accounting and governance behaviors of more than 8,000 publicly-traded companies in North America. In assessing each company, GMI considers factors including high-risk events, revenue and expense recognition methods, SEC actions and bankruptcy risk as indicators of a company's credibility.
James Kaplan, director at GMI ratings, originally started the list following the collapse of corporate superpowers Enron and WorldCom. According to Forbes writer Kathryn Dill, Kaplan wanted to find a way to identify nefarious corporate behaviors and, at the same time, spotlight companies who abstained. The result was a ranking of the 100 Most Trustworthy Companies in America.

Hi Guys. I apologise if the following sounds a little 'advertisement(y)' but I am a bit excited about something, so you might have to excuse me. Actually, I'm a lot excited. It's not every day that I get to announce a first in the world of me (dot-com). Having said that, feel free to ignore the following post and come back tomorrow.
Good, you're still here.
So, I've finished my first kid's book and it's just about to be pushed out of the literary nest into the big wide world of book distributors, book stores and, of course, readers. Very young readers. Specifically, somewhere in the four to eight year-old range. At first, I doubted my ability to be able to produce something that would connect with young people but as the project rolled on and we 'test drove' the product with hundreds of kids, the feedback was great and the experience (from concept to final product) has been more rewarding and enjoyable than I ever would have imagined.
I may have started something.
I must say that reading the book to classrooms full of children (who didn't understand my fragile only-child emotional state) was scarier than anything I've dealt with in the media or corporate world. Kids don't have the same social filters as we grown-ups. If they think something is crap, they'll just tell you. And just to put your mind at ease, no; there's not a single swear word in the entire book. Impressive, I know.
About the Book
One of my friends described The Angry Ant as a personal development book for children disguised as a 'Once Upon a Time' story. I hadn't seen it in that light (sounds a little sneaky) but I think she's right. It is a 'normal' kid's book with some important messages, themes and conversation-starters. It also has some very cute illustrations from my talented dad, Ron (the artist). The great thing about having an artist in the family is the cheap illustrations for your first kid's book.
Okay, the free illustrations.
Woven through the tapestry of the story are insights into tolerance, communication, awareness, perspective, choices, kindness, happiness, anger, acceptance and friendship. As well as test-driving the book with kids, we also gave it a spin with numerous parents and teachers, who kindly gave it the thumbs-up.
The general feedback is that the book is most appropriate for kids in the four to eight (year) range but one teacher suggested that the story (and its key messages) is something that could be explored and discussed by kids of any age. It takes about fifteen to twenty minutes to read to a youngster depending on how quickly (or slowly) you read and how long the kid(s) care to peruse the illustrations. Yesterday, I read it to a four year-old (took about twenty minutes, complete with special voices) who loved it but needed a little enlightening on the meaning of a few words. With the end result being that he learned some new words and had a story read to him. It seems that most kids from about seven years on can read the book by themselves without too many problems.
Practical Stuff
On a practical note, the book is A5 (size), is perfect bound (a square edged spine) and we have used the best paper and cardboard (with a gloss finish) to ensure quality and durability. In order to keep it affordable, we have set the price at $15.00 (AUD) including free delivery anywhere in Australia for the next month. Next to comparable products, this is about a ten dollar saving. For our international readers, the figure is $22.00 (AUD) posted anywhere in the world. Buying three or four books brings the unit price down to $12.00 in Oz and five books or more brings the unit price down to $10.00 delivered. If you're interested in buying multiple books (one school has done this already), email Johnnie and we will discount either, the books, the postage or both, depending on the size of the order.
*Note: when you change the quantity (of books) on the 'buy' page, the unit price will change accordingly.
Anyway, enough of the spiel. Thanks for your patience. Books are being delivered (to us) next week, so orders should be received within ten to fourteen days (hopefully sooner).

Palo Alto
Film runs Fri, May 9 through Thu, May 29.
Palo Alto
Gia Coppola 2013
USA | Format: DCP | 98 minutes
Artistic Teddy (Jack Kilmer, son of Val) cannot articulate his feelings for April (Emma Roberts, niece of Julia), who fills the void left by her distracted parents via a relationship with her soccer coach (James Franco.) Meanwhile, the erratic behavior of Fred (Nat Wolff), Teddy's best friend with father issues of his own, spirals increasingly out of control when faced with the prospect of being left behind, as school "slut" Emily (Zoe Levin) searches for love the only way she knows how.
Adapted from the short story collection by James Franco, writer-director Gia Coppola (granddaughter of Francis, niece of Sofia) connects the lives of these affluent but troubled teens in this mesmerizingly assured debut. Combating listlessness and uncertainty with sex, drugs, and acts of self-destruction, the kids of Palo Alto exist beyond the film's titular California city—they're in every high school in America.

text: Five years from now I will remember the concept of heuristics, which are mental shortcuts that help us to streamline our thinking and make sense of our world- but heuristics show that we can be fooled easily. More specifically, I think I will remember the representativeness heuristic, which is judging the probability of an event by its superficial similarity to a prototype. People will judge others based on similarities and stereotypes. I know that I have been guilty numerous times in the past of judging others based on their appearance. If I were to see someone wearing glasses and reading a book at a library, I would probably assume that he or she is a "nerd". I will keep in mind in the future to try not to judge others before getting to know them. I think I will remember this heuristic five years from now because if there comes a time when I will think about/want to judge someone- I will remember this concept and try not to fit people into stereotypes.

The car steering and suspension
systems of a car are not only important for safety reasons
but also enhances the comfort level of the vehicle.
The two systems are directly related to each other,
which is why they are always referred to together.
First lets look at the
car steering system. There are two basic types, standard
mechanical car steering and rack & pinion carsteering.
The standard mechanical car steering can be either power
assisted or non-power. Rack & pinion is almost always
power assisted although there are rare cases where it
is not.
Standard mechanical car
steering uses a series of links and arms to insure both
wheels turn in the same direction at the same time.
It hasn't changed much in all the years it's been used
and is quite simple.
Basically this is how
it works; the steering wheel is connected to the car
steering box through the steering column. The car steering
box turns the rotation of the steering wheel 90 degrees
and, in the case of power steering, uses high-pressure
fluid to help actuate the car steering.

I bet none of the consumers know about this!
Thanks in no small part to MS marketing team! -.-
Good marketing for Windows 8 on a tablet in general is quite poor. But it's even worst for Surface, MS can't show all the thing possible to do with this device.
The more I use my Surface 2 the more I enjoy it. I do feel the pinch of lack of good apps in the store (mostly games).

Pizza Oven Art
1 Attachment(s)
Here is a painting Scott forwarded me of the oven he had when he was living in Italy. He is putting in a Casa oven now that he's back in the states -- I can see why he's having withdrawl symptoms not having it.
I really like the curved arches into the wood storage and the work area (which a lot of folks are starting to do). The painting is great, and I thought you would all like to see it.
Do other folks have pizza art? Our daughter have done some pretty good pizza paintings. Maybe we should create a section for pizza oven art. :-) There are some nice woodblock prints and painted tilework. I haven't found any brick oven tapestries.

Tampa receives $13.6 million to prevent mortgage defaults
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
Last month the Housing and Urban Development Department announced that Florida will get more than $500 million in new federal foreclosure funds to prevent further home loan defaults and deal with the foreclosure crises.
Today, the director of Tampaâs Business and Housing Development Department, Cyndy Miller, said the city will get $13.6 million dollars.
Under the legislation, the money may also be used to create land banks to acquire, manage and sell distressed property. Miller said in the next month her staff will be looking at census data, foreclosure data, and determine what properties are available. But she said there are a couple of places that she sees significant need of help to prevent foreclosures.
She said those areas would be important for first-time home buyers.
The Department of Housing & Urban Development based the distribution of funds on a formula that calculated the number and percentage of foreclosures as well as the proportion of subprime loans, mortgage defaults and delinquencies.
According to the Miami Herald, as of June 30, Florida had the highest percentage of foreclosures in the country, with 6 percent of all mortgages in default, representing some 200,000 properties. And she said she hoped to provide rental accommodations for those who have recently lost their homes due to foreclosure.
Councilman Thomas Scott, who sits on the affordable Housing Task Force, praised Miller.
Miller will come back before the Council with more details on what the city is doing with funding on Nov. 20.comments powered by Disqus

Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Complementary Health Practices
What the Science Says
The following summarizes research on some of the most popular complementary health practices for IBS.
- Hypnotherapy (hypnosis), which involves the power of suggestion by a trained hypnotist or hypnotherapist during a state of deep relaxation, is the most widely used mind and body intervention for IBS. Gut-directed hypnotherapy—a specialized form of hypnosis that uses hypnotic induction with progressive relaxation and other techniques, followed by imagery directed toward the gut—is also popular. According to multiple systematic reviews of the research literature, hypnotherapy may be a helpful treatment for managing IBS symptoms. Several studies of hypnotherapy for IBS have shown substantial long-term improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms as well as anxiety, depression, disability, and quality of life.
- Herbal remedies are commonly used for IBS symptoms. Much of the research on these remedies has been done in China. A systematic review of clinical trials for 71 herbal remedies found limited evidence suggesting that a few of these herbal remedies might help improve IBS symptoms including abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhea. However, the review emphasizes that the studies were generally of poor quality.
- Peppermint oil is one herbal remedy often used to treat IBS for which there are mixed results. There is some evidence that enteric-coated1 peppermint oil capsules may be modestly effective in reducing several common symptoms of IBS—especially abdominal pain, bloating, and gas. Non-enteric coated forms of peppermint oil may cause or worsen heartburn symptoms, but otherwise appears to be generally safe.
- Probiotics, such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, are live microorganisms that are similar to microorganisms normally found in the human digestive tract and have been associated with an improvement in IBS symptoms compared with placebo. Results from studies suggest probiotics may decrease some patients' abdominal pain, bloating, and gas.
- While a few small studies have indicated that acupuncture has some positive effect on quality of life in people with IBS, systematic reviews have concluded that there is no convincing evidence to support the use of acupuncture for the treatment of IBS symptoms.
Evidence for other complementary health practices sometimes tried in treating IBS—including melatonin, meditation, reflexology, and yoga—is too limited to draw any conclusions about effectiveness.
1 Enteric-coating allows the peppermint oil to pass through the stomach unaltered so it can dissolve in the intestines. Note: If coated peppermint oil capsules are taken at the same time as medicines such as antacids, this coating can break down more quickly and increase the risk of heartburn and nausea. Back »

Nairobi — Harambee Stars captain Dennis Oliech fired a brilliant shot to lead Kenya to a thrilling 2-1 victory over Guinea Bissau in a 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Nyayo National Stadium on Saturday.
The AJ Auxerre striker had promised Kenyans a goal -- and he delivered it -- at the most crucial moment when tears were already flowing from the eyes of Kenyans after Bissau had equalised a Mike Baraza goal with nine minutes on the clock remaining.
Kenyans know their chances of qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations in 2012 remain slim but the victory over Bissau rekindles some hope.
Substitute Baraza had given Stars the lead in the 58th minute but the visitors equalised nine minutes from time through Luciano Texeira.
But with time running out, a corner was half cleared to Oliech who unleashed a 25-yard shot into the top corner setting off wild celebrations at the stadium.
The win sees Kenya increase its points tally to seven in Group J, keeping alive their slim hopes of qualifying for next year's continental showpiece. Kenya move to second in Group J with seven points. Uganda -- who play Angola in Luanda today -- have 10 points, while their hosts have six. Bissau have three.
Sloppy defending
Kenya will now hope that Angola can beat the Cranes on Sunday. Harambee Stars head coach Zedekiah Otieno said he was happy with the victory, and was satisfied with his players' display.
"You all know we were so desperate for a win. The players were too and that's why they were anxious."
Oliech's goal was reminiscent of the one he scored against Cape Verde in 2003 to take Kenya to the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations.
All seemed lost when Texeira had taken advantage of sloppy defending to strike a thunderous shot in the 81st minute for the visitors' equaliser.
But as fans began streaming out after Bissau's equaliser, Oliech was there to remind them that he remains one of the best goal poachers in the game.
The AJ Auxerre striker scored with a scorcher halfway through the Bissau half.
It was a game that Kenya needed to win by at least four goals to reduce the goal difference but coach Otieno started with a squad that was more conservative with only Oliech showing hunger for goals.
Feeble shot
The skipper missed his first chance in the 14th minute hitting out a seater after being put through by Kevin Ochieng.
Then in the 19th minute, Ivanildos Cassama's free kick brought some discomfort in the Kenyan goal but goalkeeper Arnold Origi blocked from the goal line before Anthony Kimani hit the ball out.
Oliech was at it again in the 24th minute but agin his shot went wide before Kevin Ochieng's seemingly feeble shot was saved by Bissau keeper Jonas Mendes.
The second half started with the fans yearning for a goal.
Otieno brought it Mike Barasa fro Kevin Ochieng' and Stephen Waruru for a colourless Titus Mulama.
And Barasa, the second best striker in the Kenyan Premier League sent the fans celebrating in the 64th minute tapping in a cross from Jamal Mohammed.
94th-minute winner
At least the goal gave Kenyans something to cheer but it was not safe for them and that proved in the 81st minute when Texeira pulled Bissau level.
But it was not over. Oliech, always there for the Stars, came to the rescue with a powerful 94th minute winner.
Kenya, with seven points, must beat Uganda with a margin of five goals in Kampala next and hope that Angola -- who play Uganda today -- win.
Kenya will rue the day the team went to Bissau disjointed. Football Kenya Limited took the team there too late, then there were differences between top players, which led to a 1-0 defeat.
Subsequent home draws to Uganda and a home win against Angola have not helped Stars' course.
"We have to look foward praying that things go our way," said Stars coach Zedekiah Otieno.
