Against the backdrop of record high oil prices, Air France-KLM is stressing its environmental commitment as well as pressure on manufacturers to design new more fuel efficient aircraft.
The world's largest carrier outlined its green strategy to the environment in a mid-June conference at its Paris headquarters attended by over 200 media from nearly every market Air France serves.
The conference was designed to communicate the message that Air France reduced its fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions by 12% between 2000 and 2006 with similar improvements expected by 2012.
Air France says it is committed to reducing its per passenger fuel consumption per 100km from 3.95l in 2006 to 3.7l in 2012.
This will be achieved mainly through the introduction of new aircraft but Air France also has unveiled plans to save fuel by reducing taxiing and waiting times cutting aircraft weight through lighter seats and onboard equipment and adapting flight procedures to ensure more direct routes and continuous descent approaches.
"This is continuous ongoing work we've stepped up over the last few months as high fuel prices have emerged," says Air France-KLM chief executive Jean-Cyril Spinetta.
He adds Air France is also trying to persuade manufacturers to accelerate plans to develop new narrowbody aircraft "to meet the environmental needs of our passengers and our need to reduce costs".
He says Airbus and Boeing need to rethink plans to wait until at least 2015 to introduce narrowbodies because these plans were based on $60 per barrel oil prices: "Each has to face a new reality. Things are moving very quickly and dramatically. All of us have to work on a sustainable basis with oil at $100 per barrel or maybe $130 per barrel."

Fruit and Placenta
Dick Chambers wrote:
Not necessarily. Take Trillium fruits. They're sort of fleshy -- but
the attraction to the disperser is in the aril on the seed. It's full
of fatty acids and sugars; and the ants (and yellow jackets) love them.
They carry the seed off, eat the aril and leave the seed behind. The
fruit serves not only as a vehicle for dispersal, but also to protect
the seed.
The fruit both protects the seed and acts as an aid to dispersal.
Gymnosperms (in case you don't know, the name means "naked seed") have
only seeds with no fruit. The pine seeds are attached to ovuliferous
bracts inside the pine cone. It's similar to maple fruits in that that
scale is a papery thing so they're wind dispersed.
DNA isn't an issue is plants because of the way that plants reproduce.
In lower plants, like ferns, it's easy to see what we call the
Alternation of Generations. The fern body is diploid sporophyte tissue
-- it makes the spores. The spores then germinate into a tiny
structure called a gametophyte which produced the eggs/ovules and
sperm. Fertilization takes place, and a new fern body is produced.
The concept is an old one (Foster & Gifford give 1862) and it's the
metaphysical equivalent of cats having puppies which in turn have
kittens. They didn't know haploid and diploid -- they only knew that
the progeny of a fern was not a fern, it was this little heart-shaped
thing -- and the progeny of *that* was another fern.
The change is more fundamental though than just presence or absence of
a fruit. It's the presence or absence of an ovary. In Gymnosperms,
the ovule itself sits on that scale; in Angiosperms, the ovules are
protected inside an ovary. In most cases, the fruit then, is made of
of ovary tissue. Fruits are kinda cool -- you have diploid parent
tissue (the "meat" of the fruit) and diploid progeny tissue (the
embryo) -- and then there's the triploid endosperm).
The flesh of the fruit may be composed of different types of tissue.
In a tomato, for instance, I know that the "meat" is placenta tissue.
(that tussue that connects the seed to the ovary wall is indeed called
placenta). In a bean, the placenta is that little bitty stub that
connects the bean to the ovary wall -- and the "meat" of the fruit is
just the ovary wall. In an apple, the "meat" of the fruit is
hypanthium tissue -- the ovary wall is that tough membrane that
surrounds the seeds. Sometimes, like in Coconuts, both coconut milk
and coconut "meat" are endosperm; popcorn is also endosperm.
Plants don't have an immune system like people do, so there's no issue
with mixing the different DNAs. (As an aside, it's not the DNA that's
the problem in humans -- it's the proteins on the blood that can be
problematic. During pregnancy, the mother's immune system is
"suppressed" for lack of a better word. There's one school of thought
that thinks that it might be an immune response that triggers labor,
but I digress). There is a plant pathogen response, but it's a really
complicated mixture of virulence genes in both pathogen and host plant.
Just because the berries are poisonous to humans, doesn't necessarily
mean that they're poisonous to other critters. I believe that birds
are the dispersers in those Solanums.

The UNHCR began keeping statistics of children born to Syrian refugees well after the conflict began.
MARJ, Lebanon: Mother and son seemed content next to each other; she was propped up against a scruffy wooden headboard and he nuzzled in soft light blue.
At 2 days old, the sleeping newborn was one of Lebanon's newest Syrian refugees – and already in the middle of conflicts both familial and political.
As for the domestic realm, mother Dunya and father Mustafa differ on what to call the newest addition to their family. Dunya and their three other kids favor Taym. Mustafa wants to name his son after his brother Issam, a Syrian soldier imprisoned four months ago for defecting.
Dunya, who is economical with words but gets her point across, seems likely to win this one. But there is another divergence in the family that is more difficult to call: She wants to move back to Syria someday, and he thinks they can't go home again.
As the Syrian conflict stretches into its second year, they find themselves part of the growing ranks of Syrian refugees in Lebanon – now more than 85,000 – who are an increasingly permanent fixture in Lebanon.
Among the luckier refugees, the family shares a rented house with two other families in the Bekaa village of Marj. The isolated and fairly spacious building is a far cry from the local school where many bunked until they were evicted for the academic year, and farther still from the tents where others are sleeping.
Dunya wanted to give birth in Syria, but clashes grew nearer and she was concerned about her children and how she would get to a hospital.
"I used to lie to my kids about jets bombing the area, to make them feel safe," she said. "I would turn on the TV for them to watch; I'd put them beside me and convince them nothing was happening outside."
But this strategy only lasted for so long. There are at least 35 martyrs from their town, Mustafa said, adding that among the dead was a woman who was eight months pregnant. Three months ago, they decamped to Lebanon.
The UNHCR began keeping statistics on children born to registered Syrian refugees well after the conflict began. From mid-March through August of this year it counted 250 newborns in the Bekaa, and 154 in the north from this January through August. It tallied an additional 29 newborns in the north before January. In total that's 433 children – likely a vast underestimate.
Although there is abject poverty and fear among the refugees, there are also marriages and births, bittersweet moments of joy that are reminders that life is rumbling forward, albeit not in their preferred location.
Even if the Syrian conflict is resolved soon many refugees will have no homes or jobs to return to. This has led some to suggest more durable solutions, at least for housing.
Some politicians, including Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblatt and various members of the March 14 bloc's ranks, have said that building camps is the only way forward. Both Turkey and Jordan have set up official refugee camps.
Camps are a delicate topic in Lebanon, where more than 400,000 Palestinian refugees live, most in or around 12 camps. When they moved into tents starting in 1948, few here expected such an extended stay.
In time, the tents became buildings and the camps became overcrowded and destitute neighborhoods of their own. The Palestinians were major players in Lebanon's 15-year Civil War.
Hezbollah and its March 8 coalition have expressed strong opposition to camps, with Hezbollah's No. 2 Sheikh Naim Qassem suggesting earlier this spring that "any camp for Syrians will turn into a military pocket that will be used as a launch pad against Syria, and then against Lebanon."
The government is in the early stages of discussing an overarching plan for Syrian refugees, but Prime Minister Najib Mikati told the U.N. General Assembly last week that relief is beginning to exceed the country's capacity.
Dunya still wants her new son to grow up in Syria. Out of her earshot, Mustafa insisted "there is no way my wife and kids are going back to Syria," although he will continue to cross the border to look after his business interests and remaining relatives.
His 15-year-old son said he had been traumatized by the fighting back home. If they can't stay in Lebanon, Mustafa is mulling over Saudi Arabia or Venezuela.
No sign of emotion crossed the teenager's face for several hours, until he pulled back the covers to check on his newborn brother, who he'll probably call Taym. He grinned for a moment.
Dunya, tired and calm, is worried about Syria's future and that of her new son. But she has had some respite. "When I had the baby, I forgot all the bad things that happened in Syria."

As with care delivery, the process of innovation itself should be pushed out toward patients.
Many conference participants suggested the decentralization of care delivery will and must occur in tandem with a decentralization of the innovative process more broadly. Like centralized providers, the traditional avenues of innovation may be too narrow, unnecessarily restricting the universe of possibilities. By opening doors for untapped talent, we might discover innovations that would otherwise be overlooked by the usual professionals.
Alpheus Bingham, Co-founder of InnoCentive—an online platform for connecting those with innovation problems with potential solvers—said that finding real innovation means tapping the expertise of "non-experts." He cited the conference itself as an example: "There were 509 invitees, and I'm going to just guess that the total problem-solving power of the ones who weren't invited to this conference is greater than the total solving power of those who were." Bingham cited a collaboration among InnoCentive, Harvard University, and the Helmsley Foundation, which investigated potential hypotheses in diabetes treatment that "were not being adequately resourced." When they looked beyond major university science initiatives to reach patients, doctors, and other caregivers, they found fruitful areas of diabetes research focused on prevention, care, and support of the patient.
Bingham suggested that "our identities as experts" have become an obstacle to broader innovation. "Maybe the reason that people with your skills and backgrounds solve the interesting problems of the world is only because you're first in line. It wasn't because the questions got asked of everybody at once."
– Alpheus BinghamCo-founder, InnoCentive
As with care delivery, the decentralization of the innovation process is increasingly relying on patients themselves. When organized into collaborative groups, patients can be agents for accelerating the search for cures. Kathryn Giusti, Founder and CEO, Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF), articulated a model rooted in her own personal experience. At age 37, she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, "a 100 percent fatal blood cancer," with a life expectancy of three years from diagnosis. Recognizing that hers was a "hugely neglected cancer," she founded the MMRF. By combining fundraising with an open tissue bank and a unique depository of sequential patient data, the foundation was able to attract more scientists and stimulate new research.
"In the years since I was diagnosed, we have more than doubled the lifespan of our patients from three years to eight," Giusti said. The crucial element, she suggested, was creating a patient community that developed "our own data systems and got everybody working together… the whole point of this is to make sure that we start to identify new targets and new biomarkers, with all the data being in the public domain for thousands of people to look at, instead of just having one or two or three academic centers. It's much more about crowdsourcing and information gathering."

Film runs Sat, Sep 28 through Mon, Sep 30.
Sat, Sep 28
Mon, Sep 30
Stephanie Spray and Pacho Velez 2013
USA | Nepali with English subtitles and English | 118 minutes
Directors Stephanie Spray and Pacho Velez in person!
Stephanie Spray and Pacho Velez's (literally) transporting film—shot inside a cable car that carries pilgrims and tourists to and from a mountaintop temple in Nepal—is radically simple in conception. Each of its 11 shots lasts as long as a one-way ride, which corresponds to the duration of a roll of 16 millimeter film. This newest work from Harvard's Sensory Ethnography Lab—which previously produced Sweetgrass (NYFF '09) and Leviathan (NYFF50)—is thrillingly mysterious in its effects: a staged documentary, a cross between science fiction and ethnography, an airborne version of an Andy Warhol screen test. As with the richest structural films, Manakamana is a kind of head movie that viewers are invited to complete as they watch. Working within a 5-by-5-foot glass and metal box, Spray and Velez have made an endlessly suggestive film that both describes and transcends the bounds of time and space. Winner of the Filmmakers of the Present prize at the 2013 Locarno Film Festival. A Cinema Guild release.
Series: NYFF51: Motion Portraits
Venue: Walter Reade Theater, Howard Gilman Theater

My Bloody Valentine – "mbv"
The swaying taunting apathy in music that bewitched so many teenagers in the late eighties and early nineties has returned full swing this week. After twenty years of being on hiatus, with vocals comprising of both a kick ass female and sultry male, the Irish alternative rock group, My Bloody Valentine, just released their fourth album, M B V, to the squealing delight of many patiently awaiting shoe-gazing fans.
My Bloody Valentine has matured so much. While they still retain that essential indie pop rock value that was slowly being established as the voice of youth during their pinnacle climb, they sound a lot cleaner, a lot more practiced. M B V retains the hypnotizing vocals, monotonous drum sets, and volatile guitar rips that provided an escape to their fans during their heyday but they have polished the chords and vocals to give it a little more modern sheen. They sound more like Warpaint, Yo La Tengo, or even Alice Glass when she is playing her wistful self. Particularly in the fourth song on the album, "Is This and Yes," does Bilinda Butcher sound quite similar to a cooing Glass in "Tell Me What To Swallow." Even with a more smooth croon, they still hold that nineties scratchiness that keeps us coming back for more nostalgic anesthesia. The music of that time period was a bit sloppy and My Bloody Valentine possessed a combination of the brooding sound of Sonic Youth or Lush with the instrumental styling of Pavement or The Pixies but the group still couldn't decide what they wanted to be yet. After a twenty year break, they have chosen to mold themselves into a more dream pop, less grunge pop group. Lightening the male vocals and the grungy "Amen break" present in a lot of their songs, Butcher's silken, dreamy voice really shines through in this album. The singer had previously mentioned that she was awoken at about 7:30 am to start practice and she is "usually trying to remember what I've been dreaming about when I'm singing." Her sleepy serenade especially works with the group's new sound.
Since their inception in 1987, where they sounded more like just movie background music (especially with Dave Conway leading the way), they have grown quite a bit. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the new album and how a part of me pined for the simplicity of dirty nineties sounds. This new album is slower, calmer, and more ambient, with less long guitar rips and just enough slow drums to remind us where they came from. Some of the songs, particularly "If This and Yes" and "She Found Now," actually moved me. It seems M B V is catering to their adult fans; those that have grown gazing at their sneakers with them and those, like me, who are just discovering them. The songs can be a bit slow at times but maybe that's just the impatience of our musical upbringing so used to drum machines and electronic samples we don't always wait for the instruments to pick up speed. Coming back more into the sound they began to cultivate in 1991's, Loveless, they dusted some of the old tools they used, added more contemporary instrumentals, and more of Butcher's wistful warbling to make the album really pop. I'm quite charmed by My Bloody Valentine and look forward to seeing their progression.

Ellen McIlwaine
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (July 2010)
|Ellen McIlwaine
|Birth name
|Ellen McIlwaine
October 1, 1945
Nashville, Tennessee
|Singer-songwriter, slide guitarist
|Guitar, piano, harmonica
|Years active
Ellen McIlwaine (born October 1, 1945 in Nashville, Tennessee) is an American singer-songwriter and musician best known for her career as a slide guitarist.
Born in Nashville, McIlwaine was adopted by missionaries and raised in Kobe, Japan, giving her exposure to multiple languages and cultures. She attended the Canadian Academy school in Kobe, graduating in 1963. Her first experience in music was playing Ray Charles, Fats Domino and Professor Longhair songs on piano that she heard on Japanese radio. On moving to back to the United States she bought a guitar, beginning a stage career in Atlanta, Georgia in the mid-1960s.
In 1966, she had a stint in New York City's Greenwich Village where she opened every night at the Cafe Au Go Go, playing with a young Jimi Hendrix, and opening for Muddy Waters, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, and Big Joe Williams. She returned to Atlanta to form the band Fear Itself, a psychedelic blues rock band.
After recording one album with Fear Itself, McIlwaine went solo, recording two albums for Polydor, Honky Tonk Angel (1972) and We the People (1973), the latter featuring a hit single, "I Don't Want to Play". Those albums, and most of her work since, have featured McIlwaine's approach to acoustic slide guitar.
McIlwaine's career has been irregular, plagued by what she has often described of conflict with her record producers who wanted to change her sound. She once remarked of the 1978 album Ellen McIlwaine, "It could have been any other female vocalist, and next time it will be."[citation needed]
As a female vocalist who is known more for her acoustic guitar, her music tends to be classified in the folk sections of record stores, despite her strong roots in blues, soul and rock music, and her cover versions of songs by Isaac Hayes, Stevie Wonder and Browning Bryant. She has also recorded several covers of songs by Jimi Hendrix: she wrote "Underground River" about him.
By the mid-1970s McIlwaine's songs "Sliding", "We the People" and "Losing You" were included on the compilation album, The Guitar Album.
McIlwaine's album The Real Ellen McIlwaine, recorded in Montreal in 1975 for the Kotai label, won the NAIRD Indie Award. A 1982 project, Everybody Needs It, was also successful, and featured Jack Bruce, an artist who influenced her strongly and whose songs she has covered on several of her albums.[citation needed]
In 1980 she made her first tour of Australia, after being spotted by the Australian singer-guitarist Margret RoadKnight, who was one of the co-promoters of the tour. She returned to Australia in 1984, and during this tour was the last performer to appear at Sydney's Regent Theatre.
Since moving to Canada in 1987, (first Toronto, later Alberta), McIlwaine recorded Looking for Trouble for Stony Plain Records, which has also re-released her early vinyl material on CD. Her next CD Women in (e)motion Festival/Ellen McIlwaine, recorded live in Germany in 1999; and then Spontaneous Combustion featuring Taj Mahal are on the German Tradition und Moderne label.
In spite of debilitating arthritis in her hips, she undertook a third tour of Australia and New Zealand in 2003, which reunited her with RoadKnight and the other Honky Tonk Angels, who had first brought her to Australia in 1980. McIlwaine has since successfully undergone hip replacement surgery.
She has long favored Guild brand guitars. She plays Guild S-250 and S-300D electric guitars; in earlier years, even when performing solo, she often played her electric guitar through an octave multiplier to emulate a bass player.[citation needed]
Her acoustic guitar is a venerable and well-traveled Guild instrument, purchased for her in New York by a friend in 1966. This guitar has a unique history, being a former Guild company "loaner" which was used by leading artists including Mississippi John Hurt and Richie Havens while Guild repaired their own guitars.[citation needed]
In 2006 she started her own label Ellen McIlwaine Music and released Mystic Bridge featuring the Indian tabla drummer Cassius Khan. They were joined by the soprano saxophone of Linsey Wellman on three tracks, including their version of "Take Me to the River", and harmonium playing by Amika Kushwaha on the last track, "The Question". This was a poem by Christine Steele, recited over Cassius Khan's vocal rendition of the ancient Urdu poem set to music, "Darbari Raag".
In 2008, 2009, and 2010 she toured with Patty Larkin's La Guitara ensemble in the US, and in Canada with Sue Foley's Guitar Women, and appeared at various US and Canadian venues and festivals as a solo artist.
She has been nominated for the 2011 Toronto Blues Society's "Blues with a Feeling" Lifetime Achievement Award.

Calvisi vs. Kornheiser: Football Isn't Boxing
Football isn't dying, it's evolving. That's because football isn't boxing, it's a sport.
There - two thoughts that have been gnawing at us like roof rats in your attic. Ever since Tony Kornheiser appeared on AZ Sports 620 and forecast the future of the NFL as follows:
"All you have to do is look at boxing. Boxing was the most popular sport in America for a hundred years," said the TV-radio-print commentator/columnist. "And the cultural wheel turns at some point. And now it's conducted on pay per view and it's not on television all the time and nobody wants their kid to grow up to be a boxer."
Football isn't boxing, although it's inherently high contact and often violent. Thing is, you don't score points for a pancake block or a devastating tackle. Put simply: on the gridiron, you score points by scoring the football. There is a game that supersedes the hostility.
Boxing is battery. In the ring, the only objective is to assault your opponent. You compile points by piling on. Unless he's knocked out cold first, of course.
Boxing is violence that parades as a sport (Cue Russell Crowe: "Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained?")
And there's another way that football is not boxing: it's not corrupt to the core. In fact, quite the opposite. The NFL is perhaps the best run and most profitable business enterprise on the planet (all apologies to the Facebook IPO).
Now, is football where it was two decades ago? No. And that's a good thing. Hang on, you say. What about the big hits (BIG, BIG hits)? We all miss the honkin-huge take-your-head-off-don't-call-me-assassin-crash-test- dummy-type collisions that they used to sell on VHS tapes, right? Wrong. #Buzzer.
Not anymore. Now that we know what we know, do you miss it? I don't. When a guy gets splattered and splayed by a hit he never saw coming, do you applaud? No. Instead, we wince and pray he's okay.
And this comes from a guy who used to get ready for high school football games by (unsuccessfully) channeling his inner Ronnie Lott (Warning - author just got dangerously close to a hit �n run High School Harry story).
Once again, football has evolved. And so have the fans. No longer do we watch football just to see a defenseless receiver get blow'd up across the middle. And, if we're honest, we never did in the first place.
Whether you're in the stands or in front of your big screen, you're a fan of football the sport, not just the mayhem. If I showed you a highlight reel of just the brutal hits in a game, you'd ask me: what about the game itself? What happened in the game? Who won? Who scored?
That's not to say that hitting isn't integral to the game. But, now that we know the consequences, will you miss the blows to the head when they're gone? Yet, in boxing, what else is there? That is the DNA of the game.
And again, back in the day, I was Paulie Pay Per View. But we've changed. Now, how can you flip on boxing and, with every punch to the skull, not feel like you're huddled around a dimly lit ring watching human cockfighting?
"Football as we know it is over. It's over. The football that you grew up playing is over," Kornheiser continued. "And, as a parent, you probably think that's probably a pretty good idea. The football that became the most popular sport in America� sold itself with this contained roller-ball aspect of violence."
Football isn't over, it's different. But it's still football. And it's still the most popular sport in the country because it's much more than the violence. And that's why fans are still buying, not fleeing.

To have a safe and comfortable driving experience your Cadillac should be in perfect condition. Car steering parts plays a major role in streamlining the driving in your Cadillac. Steering wheel has the entire control over the movement of the car. The Cadillac manual gear box uses the clutch to regulate and transfer the force from engine to the transmission and it allows driver to select any forward gears. In manual transmission, the selected gear pair is locked to the output shaft which is located inside the transmission. And the power steering gear box is attached to the engine chassis. The steering linkage moves the wheels according to the direction of rotation of the steering wheel and also it is determined on how far the steering wheel is turned. Cadillac manual steering rack transfers the movement of the steering wheel to the front wheels of your vehicle. It is a combination of connected steering wheels in a set of U-joints and shafts. The moment you turn the steering wheel right or left, the pinion gear pushes the rack right or left and the wheels get turned. Power steering rack is composed of a rack enclosed with a steering pinion. It is connected to the steering wheel through the set of shafts and U-joints. If you turn the steering wheel, the pinion moves and pushes the rack to turn the wheels because the steering rack ends are connected to the front wheels.

Adult Degree Completion Program
Student Spotlight
Tracy Ricchiuto
Anticipated graduation year: May, 2013
Degree/Major: Bachelor of Arts in Health Care Management
Current Career: Hitachi Medical Systems America, Inc. (HMSA)
Clinical Marketing Specialist- Magnetic Resonance Imaging
What made you return to College? I was downsized from my previous place of employment, an Outpatient Imaging Center, in March of 2009. I knew that if I wanted to move forward in my career search I needed to get my Bachelor Degree.
Has your coursework affected your career plan? Being a student at B-W prepared me for my current position. I had been an MRI Technologist for 12 years, but just completed an Intro. to Marketing course and an Excel/Access course at B-W. All of which, combined with my MRI experience helped me obtain my current full time position.
Why did you choose to attend B-W? I felt the staff worked hard to help me with financial aid and assisted me with my Workforce Investment Act grant. I didnt feel like I was going to get lost in the shuffle. B-W is great with the non-traditional student.
Please list any information regarding internships, scholarships, B-W organization involvement, etc.:
Workforce Investment Act Grant
B-W Lakeland Transfer Scholars Award
B-W Associates Award
Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship
Do you have a favorite story youd like to share so that others can get a feel for the B-W experience?
I was taking Applied College Math and having a hard time with the course content. Barb Aylward, Professor and Tutor, held tutoring sessions on Monday nights at the Beachwood campus. I was able to learn and understand all of the course work because of her. There was an especially difficult chapter and Barb even came in on a Saturday morning to work with me on some of the problems. She always believed in me and made me realize I could do well in this course! Tutors can and do make a difference.
Other information you would like to share including any advice for new students? It is hard to work full time, attend college, keep up with your children and family and still find time for exercise and friends. However, it can be done but you must have good time management skills and prioritize weekly. Dont give up!

Hello There, Guest!
[Gallery] CombatTeddy - 5/3/12-(pre-Shop open)
30-04-2012, 02:01 AM | Post: #1CombatTeddy
Hello all
I just recently got gimp and i been seeing a couple of tutorials on how to make sigs sence a sig maker denied my request. Not upset but disapointed that i was turned down, not mad cause thats requesting something is a gamble if your getting what you want. I gambled and lost. Nevertheless i still wanted a signature so like i mentioned before i just got gimp and began making my own signatures.
You can rate, comment, or just look through. It wont bother me one bit. Ill be adding more in the furture. Its isnt just going to be Sigs. Like i said i just got gimp cause it was free. so i might do other than just signatures.
First sig that i ever made. (4/49/12)
Soon after the first sig.(4/49/12)
A new addition to the gallery. Was going to be a sig but was too big, and made a big mistake of overighting it with the original one. . (4/30/12)
A pre-shop now open.

If you want more feedback ask a mod to move this thread to media.
Also, since undoubtedly you will open a shop thinking it's "Uber l33t" or smthing like that in the near future, I'd encourage you to click the link in my sig that sez, How to succeed in signature shopping.

Well.. wow.. umm... O.O
Well its nice that you think i would open a shop. Really didn't think to open one. If i did it wouldn't be anything that cleshay. I like something simple but meaningfull, or i could go by my name.
As soon as i learn how to contact one i will. For the mean time im just doing this for fun. Unless i get lucky and a mod happens to pop in. I doubt and dont doubt my chance. bit complicated to understand: yes.
Anyways thanks for the support.
30-04-2012, 03:59 AM | Post: #9Derogapod
Good luck with your digital art endeavors; feel free to contact me if you ever need advice!
P.S. Practice makes improvement. I would suggest opening a shop to give you more material to work with. As silly as it sounds, you'll feel like a Gimp pro after making enough signatures, haha.

Isn't really the best I've ever seen, but you'll improve for sure! GL and HF in further signatures you're going to make

I dun like the new addition. To much white. Maybe adding a texture background or something, and try playing around with some of the filters, I think it would look a lot better.

Open Forum
By Rebecca Teti
Tuesday: Open Forum
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
This is the Open Forum Coffee Talk. That means ... anything goes. Ask a question, make a suggestion, share a story, offer some advice -- the floor is yours!
When was your last confession? I went last Sunday.
I went Saturday. I planned on going the week before but work nights and overslept. I go monthly, or more often if needed.
I fail to see who or how it benefits for me to say when my last confession was. :s
I think it's any discussion of Confession is beneficial. Too many Catholics ignore it nowadays and aren't even aware of our requirement to go at least once a year, or even acknowledge the fact that sins other than murder and adultery count as mortal sins and have to be confessed. I try to bring it up with my less-active Catholic family and friends when I can in the hopes of encouraging them to at least think about it and their need to observe the Sacraments.
It seems that any reminder about the healing Sacrament of Confession would be of benefit to all. Those who have gone recently understand the blessings of the graces received...those who know they are in need of going may be grateful for this gentle nudge toward going...those who feel no need to reply simply won't reply. Scott in OH makes a valid point. Sadly, we live in a very poorly catechized age & one that all but denies the reality of sin.
My first time going to confession was after I had converted to Catholicism before my husband & I were married. I was shaking, nervous, and pretty much terrified of what was to come. I went in & started nervously rambling every wrong I had done pretty much from birth. I went on for several minutes and had just got into my jr high years when Fr. politely interrupted & guided me thru the process. Looking back on my conversion to Catholicism & learning about the traditions/customs, etc. it was a completely new experience, a wonderful time where I finally felt a sense of comfort & "home" but also anxiety...I wanted to learn everything perfectly. It took several years for me to just relax & enjoy the journey & be able to be perfectly content with being imperfect. I still stumble over some responses and ask many questions but my husband & inlaws have benefited and enjoyed my journey into the faith thus far too because some answers they don't know & we learn together or they relearn something they may have forgotten.
For Scott - our family goes to confession about once every month. We plan on going as a family again before Easter... Is anyone else having a tough time with Seasonal Affective Disorder or just all out depression?? I seem to be in such a blue mood, and I can't seem to snap out of it. I had a check-up, I'm "healthy" so doctor wanted to put me on anti-depressants, but I didn't take them...Yet.... Isn't there anything *ELSE* I can do besides pop a pill with dozens of side-effects?
Lynnea - there are a variety of treatments for Seasonal Affective Disorder and depression. I would definitely recommend talking with your doctor again - physical activity, light (for seasonal affective disorder), etc can all be helpful, either alone or used together with anti-depressants. Good luck! You are in my prayers.
Lynnea, I'm sorry to hear of your struggle. Consider checking into natural supplements & dietary changes for SAD and/or depression. TM makes a good suggestion of the use of light (natural or artificial) & physical activity (especially outdoors). Ask the intercession of St. Dymphna, too. Will say a prayer for you! God bless!
My issue: my husband seems to be emotionally disengaging from our family. I think he feels more "naturally" good at his job than at being a Dad/husband, and so more and more of his energy is going to work (by his choice). My question: how to help hubs get interested in re-engaging with the family, emotionally? How to help him get his heart back into doing things *with* us (playing) instead of just *for* us (working)? For what its worth, all this started with him getting a lot of recognition on the job (which of course made him happy and want to do more of this type of work for his boss!), resulted in less time with the kids, then led to him being less in-the-loop with the kids, now the kids seem to feel less excited about him being around, and of course he is less excited about being around people who are less excited about him, so he works even MORE... I hope you can see that this is an endless spiral downward for us. And did I mention that hubs has recently made some vaguely bothersome remarks like, "You parent your way; I do my thing." and "You do the kid-thing; I do the work-thing." Its like he's justifying this whole thing by making work "his" thing and parenting "mine." Oh, and did I mention he has skipped an entire non-fertile phase with no time for intimacy? His excuse is that he doesn't want to give me his tired-self, but only his best-self. I want to say, "Well, rest up so you have some energy at the end of the day!" I mean, gee, I am waking up with a baby multiple times per night and I still rush the kids to bed on time so we *could* have some opportunity for intimacy. But I am getting sick of rushing everyone to bed only to have him just roll over and start snoring. I guess its the opposite problem husbands usually complain about wives being too tired! But its not really about the sex... its about him desiring things more than his job. The "best" of himself goes to work and we are getting the leftovers, if there ARE any leftovers at the end of the day.
Lynnae-have you had your blood levels checked (Iron & Vit D)? We were in FL for awhile & then moved to MI. My symptoms were SAD & after getting checked out, 10,000 IU Vit D later I felt a marked improvement. Anon-my heart goes out to you! I can't begin to imagine the toll that is taking on you & your kids. It seems there's more to be resolved than just engaging with your kids & being more actively involved. It also sounds like he is not taking what you say seriously or making you a priority. For the sake of your marriage & kids may I suggest talking with your priest or finding a marriage counselor. Prayers being sent your way. May God Bless you & give you strength, confidence, and most importantly the love you so need right now!
Anon-what would he say if you said "I want your tired self! Your tired self is hot!" That's what I'd say to my husband!! Lol. If he's genuinely too tired to have sex for more than a day or two in a row, he needs to visit the doctor and make sure there's not some underlying problem wearing him out like thyroid issues, depression, etc. Because chronic fatigue is not normal! If he's not that tired, he needs to give up his lame excuse and tell you what's really going on!!
Crunchy Con Mom, thanks! I will try it. He has been "too tired" for over a week (and this is a regular thing, not just a particularly bad week). We end up missing lots of non-fertile opportunities and then have to abstain for long periods (which never seems to bother him). But it bothers me b/c he kind of forgets to do thoughtful things at all when these no-sex phases go on and on. He gets so wrapped up in work I think he just forgets I have feeling/emotions. :(
Thank you for your helpful comments...guess I need to start taking vit d and research some other ideas..God bless you all

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - Hospitals across Iowa are beginning to use more high-tech equiptment. St. Luke's in Cedar Rapids is one of many turning to new computerized programs. Hospitals used to depend on hand written notes for prescriptions and patient care, which often lead to mistakes.
The new technology helps to reduce the amount of errors. With one swipe of a handheld scanner over a wrist band, nurses know everything there is to know about a patient.
"It will tell us if we have the right patient, the right medication, the right time. It also gives us allergy warnings," said Debbie Julian, St. Luke's Nurse.
This transformation is all a part of a new system at St. Luke's. Nurses scan something many of us recognize as QR codes. That bar code activates that person's computerized chart. A warning will then popsup on the computer to alert doctors and nurses to stop if a treatment is incorrect.
"I think it raises the bar in patient safety," Julian said.
Patsy Ott-Pick, a Cedar Falls patient, recently underwent a knee surgery. She is among the first to sport a wrist band with the special codes.
"I think you have a little more confidence in everything. You're getting the medications that you are supposed to be getting, like you know if for some reason something got mixed into mine," Ott-Pick said.
Just a few blocks down the road, Mercy Medical Center also has a similar wrist band bar code scanning system. Pharmacist Systems Analyst Howard Cobb said it has already proven to reduce medical mistakes. He said between 60 and 80 percent of all errors can be prevented with the technology.
"There are a lot of studies out there that show that using bar code technology to identify patients improves patient safety. So, it's very important that it's adopted in the health care industry and it is gaining more and more use throughout healthcare," Cobb said.
Each year hospitals invest in a new form of technology, such as automated prescription machines and robots. Medical professionals know this is just the beginning of the ever-growing amount of medicinal technology.

Jersey Shore
What Will Snooki Tell Lorenzo About Her Jersey Shore Days?
Snooki sure seems to have been on her very best behavior ever since she and fiancé Jionni LaValle welcomed little Lorenzo into the world, but as fans of the Jersey Shore definitely know, she's had some pretty wild and sometimes embarrassing on-screen moments throughout the series.
So, what do Snookers and Jionni plan to tell their little one about their mom's days on reality TV?
Speaking to ET Online, Snooki said that she wants the boy to have a "normal" childhood, so she'll wait until he's in school to fill him in on his mommy's past.
"He'll think I'm a nutjob, but that's okay as long as he loves me," she explained, "and if anyone, you know, talks crap about me I want him to punch them."
She's not nervous about what he'll see, she said, because it's no different than what anyone else her age has done. "The only reason [it's different] is I'm being followed by a camera and everyone sees it," she said. "So, I'm just going to say, 'Everyone does it and just watch yourself when you're growing up.'"
Catch the next new episode of Jersey Shore on Thursday, October 25 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.

Of the many lessons Tahj Holden learned during his time at Maryland, perhaps the most applicable one in his post-college life has been this:
Always have a contingency plan.
Holden, an integral member of Maryland's 2002 national championship team, finished his college career in 2003 and immediately began preparations for what he assumed would be a lengthy professional basketball career. But nearly a year later, injuries prematurely derailed those overseas hoop dreams.

$530,000 school surplus to cut city tax rateBy Josh OGorman
STAFF WRITER | April 10,2013Rutland City homeowners will see their tax rates rise less than previously reported after an audit of the school district showed a half-million-dollar surplus.
During Tuesday nights meeting of the Rutland City School Board, chief financial officer Peter Amons discussed the results of two audits, both conducted by certified public accountants OBrien Shortle Reynolds & Sabotka, PC, of Rutland, which gave the school finances a clean bill of health.
The language was convoluted, but stated the fiscal year ending June 12, 2012 ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
While that might sound like a less-than-enthusiastic approval of the school districts finances, Amons noted the absence of language indicating financial irregularities is the sign of a clean audit.
This is the place in the report where they would indicate any problems, he told the board.
The audit shows the district has a surplus of $530,000, which by law must be added to the revenue portion of the upcoming budget for fiscal year 2013-14.
On Town Meeting Day, voters approved a school budget of $47.3 million, which would have raised the residential tax rate from $1.40 to $1.48. With the additional revenue from the surplus after the audit, the residential tax rate will be $1.453.
For a home appraised at $150,000, the tax bill will be about $40 lower than it would have been prior to the audit.
The district also underwent a second audit, which is required for any entity receiving more than $500,000 in federal aid. That audit also came back with a clean bill of financial health, with two qualifications.
First, according to the audit, the district should make employee time sheets more detailed. Second, the district should spend any grant money it gets within 15 months of receiving it.
Board member Fagan noted the districts liabilities are decreasing, from $19.2 million to $17.2 million.
Board clerk Richard Courcelle noted the districts liability to the City Pension Fund has decreased by $150,224, to $7,893,034.
Its been hard work, he said. The Pension Board had to make some hard decisions in terms of having employees make a greater contribution to the fund, and I think its an important part of this audit.
