Home to the unrepeated 'Redline' (V11) - one of Steve Bullen's testpieces of the 90's. A freestanding boulder with some interesting top outs, it faces west and is in the shade 'til about lunchtime. Be warned, some holds have been 'enhanced'.
Detailed access: Follow directions to the west face. Follow the west face cliff trail, past route the very last route volkswagon , keeping going under a massive tree which is lying above the track. Keep going for another 15m and the Nitro Wall boulder will appear on your right.
Some easy warm up's are available on a large block up the hill which have been climbed since the dawn of man. There are a number of select problems on the block which are believed to be new, however.© (Johan)

Mt Keira Summit is 1.2 hr drive south of Sydney CBD. The summit overlooks the city of Wollongong (9th largest city in Australia) and has superb views up the southern coastline.
Take 'Mt Keira' Rd all the way to the top and turn right into Queen 'Elizabeth' Drive. Follow this to the top, turn right after the cafe and park at the far end of the car park. Follow the fire trail down for about 50m 'til you get to a track on your right. Follow this faint track west until you get to the top of the cliff line (west face of Mt Keira). Go down the gully and when you get to the bottom of the cliff line, keeping going under a massive tree which is lying over the track. Keep going for another 15m and the 'Nitro Wall' boulder will appear on your right. Some easy warm up's are available on a large block up the hill.© (Johan)

Starting on the deep pocket just left of the right-arete, embark on a long traverse through a variety of cool crimps, slots and jugs before topping out with big moves on jugs at the far left end of the bloc. (this can be climbed as a line in its own right, The Altar of Lamentation, v0)
Although this is an obvious problem on an obvious section of rock, no information was recorded. The FA details are lost to the stoneage climbers who never bothered to tell anyone.
FA: Unknown
The problem follows the righthand side of the arete from a sit start to a highball topout. Sit start with your feet in the large hueco at ground level, hands on the positive edge. Make your way up the righthand side of the arete to the airy scary launch for the lip.
Practising the moves on top rope is possible using the carrots handily placed right on the top.
FA: Oliver Kerr & Brett Heino, 2012
Head up the major descent gully before Nitro Wall area (heading north). At the path at the top of the gully head left for about 15 metres, you should find yourself on top of a wide, orange-streaked bloc. Head around to the left of that bloc to get to the bottom of it.
On the holds right of Sinn Fein
Sit start right of the arete on jug slot and small left-hand crimp. Power through some big moves on crimps trending right before a difficult mantle on slopers and delicate top-out.
Note: the starting left hand crimp has been lost to a fat boulderer. The start must use either the higher better left hand sidepul (easier) or go without a left handhold and use the original right hand (much harder).
FA: Brett Heino, 2012

Quiet and relaxing. Beautiful view of Lake Simcoe . Didn't feel pressured to have an alcoholic drink. Non alcoholic beverages are delicious.
One of the best restaurants we've ever been in. The food is delicious no matter what you pick, staff is very professional, friendly and accommodating.
Great Lounge with excellent food and signature drinks. Family friendly! Where you want a quick bit or sit for a spot of tea, the Dromlwaters' Lounge is the place to be.
The food I ordered was really good but there were not a lot of options on the menu. Service was average.
The food and service was excellent. The staff very friendly and seem to care about what you want. Carlo was very attentive and his service was superior. The was another lady we had for breakfast but do not remember her name. She was extremely friendly and service was excellent.
I would agree with the previous reviewer - it was difficult to find the bar tender, and the menu selection is indeed limited. However, we REALLY enjoyed the food. We prefer less choices if they're things they can do really well, so we were very happy with our food. The service left a little to be desired, and it wasn't...
The menu is quite short & so not much to choose from and service was not very good. I had to go looking for the bartender.
Peacefull, nice view, good food, good service, good price.
I was there with classmate for our 40th reunion and we took upa full corner and push tables together, no questions asked.
I love the whole experience. We usually arrive early, so have lunch in Drinkwaters'. We enjoy sitting there looking out over the lawn and on to the lake. It is very relaxing!!!!Q
It's so relaxing to sit and look out at the lake whether it is winter or summer. In winter the fireplace is on, which smells heavenly. The food is delicious and the service great. Sometimes we just pop in for a hot chocolate with whipped cream on top!

Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
Hi, I was away for a week on vacation and took with me the Pompei Oven plans and read through them. Something I never realized in searching the forums lately is that sometime between 2005 and now, the recommendation for the vermiculite insulation has switched from being poured below the conrete to above the concrete just below the oven hearth fire bricks.
As I recall the last oven I built the vermiculite mixture below the concrete is hard but appears more crumbly than regular concrete. Does this introduce any complications in setting fire brick level or in finishing the exterior facade? I imagine most people would want to completely cover the vermiculite even around the edges.
Re: Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
Yes you will cover it...it remains quite porous and crumbly...it works much more efficiently being on top of the structural layer. You can screed a thin layer of fireclay on top of the vermicrete to make it easier to level the floor bricks or just a dry layer of sand and fireclay. Should cause any real complication
Re: Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
There is no way that I would put the vermiculite below the concrete pad as it would add to the termal mass.
I agree with Dutch that the vermiculite cement is crumbly, I would say mor like a cork consitancy than crumbly though.
I found in my installation, the it was quite easy to get nice and smooth and flat but iI did have some suitable rectangular aluminium screeding lengths and topped it off with a steel cement trowel. It was almost shiney, flat and smoot, ideal for laying the hearth bricks directly on. I did however have to lift the ocassional one uo dur to minor thickness variations with the seconhand bricks that I used.
You will have to address the problem of rendering the edges or tiloing the edged of your base but that is an easy venture with the adhesives that are available today.
Re: Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
Cork is a great description...couldn't find the right word! Thanks Neill!
Re: Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
What about putting the vermiculite mixture below the concrete and then separating the firebrick hearth from the concrete with the insulation board. I presume that would also work although not sure the vermiculite is offering any benefit and could just as well be excluded?
Re: Insulation below or above concrete base for Oven Hearth
...two different separated insulation layers? That sandwiched concrete layer would act as a long term thermal mass/heat sink
Yes, exclude the vermic layer or put it above the hearth with the board for better insulation!

Up to now I was only developing in J2ME and would like to know about the differences compared to Android.
The situation for a java enabled phone is that it might, for example, has a built-in camera, but the manufacturer didn't implemented the Java API for camera capabilities. Which means you can't use that API. It is even possible that only parts of an API were implemented.
Now, what about Android? For what I know, when a device has Android Platform 2.2 it supports every API Level up to Level 8. And I would guess, that if the built in camera doesn't have a flash then you can't use the Android API call to change the flash mode. Is that right? Now let's assume that the device has a built in flash enabled camera. Can a developer be sure that the function for changing the flash mode can be used, or is it possible that the manufacturer didn't implemented that specific function even though it is part of the supported API Level which the device was advertised for?

Solo Run on the Six Ten
Snuck out yesterday for a nice solo ride. No set plans just point the bike in a direction and ride. Followed some familiar trails out through Blackfellows of whatever it called now, Woomarwooigiridigiri or something.
I veered off and followed a single track I had some unfinished business with which brought me out at Cullen Bullen via some trails I hadn't ridden before. From here I headed west and found my way out onto the Turon River track via a couple of dead ends. Had some fun playing on the water crossings which were much shallower than the last time I went through there but the waters still freaking cold.
All in all just a good day to be out riding.
<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-lq8bbNKhvg?hl=en_US&version=3&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-lq8bbNKhvg?hl=en_US&version=3&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
You ride that well, nice area your going through there.
Great video. Cheers
Good vid.Southy.....and ya Husky sounds great.
Great vid I ride those tracks often on Turon and willawar creek, and did a lot of gold dredging there back in the day.
...beauty country, alilbit o everyting.
Awesome trails and riding!!. Looks like the husky smashed every bit of it. Top stuff southy!!

Being a vegetarian can yield some interesting recipes; for instance, the Veggieducken.
The perfect way to avoid "vegan mock meats," the Veggieducken is a giant squash that is filled with onions, bell peppers, leeks and spices such as parsley and sage. If you're feeling creative, fill it with as many different veggies as you'd like. Check out the full recipe here.

Clarification: PTSD Fake Claims story
NEW YORK - NEW YORK (AP) - In a May 2 story, The Associated Press reported that the Department of Veterans Affairs granted a Gulf War veteran disability benefits for post-traumatic stress in 1996, though the agency was unaware that he had fabricated or exaggerated events cited in his application.
The story was based on VA records which were disclosed as part of a criminal case in which the veteran was eventually convicted of manslaughter.
Since the story appeared, the veteran, Felton Lamar Gray, has provided additional VA records which indicate that the agency later re-examined Gray's case after learning as a result of the manslaughter proceeding that his application contained unreliable information.
The newly available records show that Gray's case was reviewed in 1999 by a VA rating board, which recommended that his benefits be stopped because his testimony about events during his military service had "been discredited."
The rating board's findings were submitted to the VA's Compensation and Pension Service, which conducted an administrative review. In 2000, the Compensation and Pension Service overruled the rating board, deciding that even though Gray's original application may not have been accurate, "The evidence in file does not establish clear error in the grant of service connection for PTSD."

Be true to yourself and the rest will follow.
For starters, I'm a very easy-going person. As long as I get fresh air and a run around the lake in, I'm good to go. My baby nephew Charlie makes me smile and laugh out loud just about everyday! He brings such joy and happiness into my life, it's hard not to pinch myself when I hear his little laugh or see him do something new! I feel so lucky to have such a wonderful family and to experience being an aunt. Babies really are a pure and natural source of love. That being said, I am a huge family-oriented person. I hope to start a beautiful family of my own someday. I am looking for someone who wants the same and who values and appreciates their friends and family the way I do. I am extremely passionate about other people and allowing everyone an equal chance to succeed. I'm looking for a man who has similar beliefs as me, and someone who exhibits humanitarianism. Confidence and leadership are key qualities I look for. I want someone who is sure of himself, not afraid to take risks and lives life to the fullest! I am a relaxed person, but easily adaptable and able to pick up on energies around me. Someone encouraging with positive energy, a good sense of humor and who makes me laugh are all important to me in a significant other. That is all for now. Feel free to e-mail me if you would like to get to know me better! Submitted from mobile

Brianna|17|Asexual|She/Her|Tumblr Twitter
Hello!! Im Brianna and I suck at introductions. I'm barely getting into drawing after a 4 year long art block, and it's great. I mostly draw cats but I am looking to expand my horizons. I've been serious about drawing since 4th grade, which was 7 years ago. Other than that, I am a quite uninteresting teenager. I'm mostly on my twitter, but I do spend lots of time on here, too. My life is mostly feminism, music,warrior cats, and roleplaying here on dA.I (obviously) really love dogs and huskies. I am currently taking a course in Cosmetology, the study of hair cutting and beauty to work in a salon and may even post pictures of my work! If you have any other questions or you simply want to talk, please don't be afraid! I am very friendly and I love making new friends.
I use a Wacom Tablet and Paint Tool SAI for my art! Here are my commision prices (they're pretty cheap!) I am still learning, and since I've been on a hiatus my anatomy is slowly improving! Please be patient!

Ok...so this is new to me but here I go...I'm out going and pretty laid back and I LOVE to laugh!

I'm just looking to meet some new people right now and we'll see what happens I guess... :) I love helping people even if it may be the smallest thing. Working with kids makes me feel awesome no matter what it is. i used to work at a rec center which by far was my fave job. I'm open to trying new things. A night out is just as nice as a night in sometimes...I enjoy the simple things in life. I also love reading, watching sports, movies, tv, and listening to all kinds of music.

Originally written on Fox Sports Southwest | Last updated 1/5/13
ARLINGTON, Texas A euphoric group A&M players had congregated in perfectly symmetrical lines in the corner of the end zone at JerryWorld. Arms locked. Swaying, per tradition as the Aggie War Hymn played and The 12th Man sang in unison. It was one of those amazing scenes you only get from college football. And it was at this moment quarterback Johnny Manziel executed his best run, sprinting from his post-game TV interview duties to join his teammates just at The Fighting Aggie Band had reached the "saw Varsity's horns off, saw Varsity's horns off" portion of the presentation. For all of y'all not from Texas, Varsity is the University of Texas and beating The Longhorns biggest rival in Oklahoma, 41-13, in this Cotton Bowl felt almost as good as taking a saw to Bevo. Especially because afterward Sooner Nation had to tip their cap and admit they had been Johnny Football-ed. "He's the best player I think I've ever played," Sooners defensive coordinator Mike Stoops said. "He's got...

Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports that trade talks for Rays catcher Jose Lobaton have begun to heat up. Topkin notes that teams with interest or need at the position include the Diamondbacks, Indians, Rockies, White Sox, Mets and Nationals.
Heard talks w/#Rays on Lobaton picking up. Teams w/interest or need include #Dbacks, #Indians, #Rockies, #WhiteSox, #Mets, #Nats.

We all knew this was coming and now it is finally here. As of today, May 9th, Ubuntu is no longer offering support for their 8.04 LTS Server (Hardy Heron), 10.04 LTS Desktop (Lucid Lynx), and 11.10 Desktop (Oneiric Ocelot) editions. So grab some blank DVDs, fire up your favorite disc burning software, and get ready to update your systems.
Perhaps the most remarkable thing about the recently-released Ubuntu 13.04 is that it isn't remarkable at all. Ubuntu 13.04 contains the latest versions of software and additional polish, but there are no must-have features that will make you rush to upgrade.
This guide explains how to configure a Windows Server 2008 machine to push out a static Ubuntu image that can be picked up by diskless terminals, so that you can have any number of machines running a fully-functional instance of Ubuntu without having a hard drive, as long as they are capable of PXE booting.
Chromebooks aren't "just a browser" — they're Linux laptops. You can easily install a full Linux desktop alongside Chrome OS and instantly switch between the two with a hotkey — no rebooting necessary.
So, all the new editions of Ubuntu are available for download and you are eager to try out the latest releases. But where do you go to find all that Ubuntu goodness, especially if you are looking for one of the UI-variant editions? Not to worry, we have the links for the direct download pages for seven editions of Ubuntu gathered together into one post for your convenience!
Most Linux distributions come without support for MP3 audio, H.264 video, Flash content, and even commercial video DVDs. Patents, closed-source software, and even laws that make certain types of software illegal restrict what can be included in a Linux distribution.
There are probably countless streaming media services that you use regularly – YouTube for music videos, and any number of websites for listening to streaming music and live radio. Forget using endless apps and website after website; Tomahawk lets you access everything in the same place.
On Linux, you install software from package management applications like the Ubuntu Software Center. But not every piece of software is available in your Linux distribution's software repositories.
Whether you're installing the latest version of Windows or upgrading your Linux distribution, most geeks agree that you should probably perform a clean installation rather than try your luck with an upgrade.
As the growth and evolution of Ubuntu marches on three more releases of Ubuntu are due to reach 'end of life' for support and updates on May 9th. If you are running one of these editions, then it would be prudent to start making plans to update now.
If you have installed Linux on its own partition in a dual-boot configuration, there's no easy uninstaller that will remove it for you. You will need to delete its partitions and repair the Windows boot loader on your own.
There's a lot to be said for app stores and the way they simplify the installation and updating of software, but Linux users can take advantage of the apt-get command to gain more control over things. With Chocolatey, Windows users can do much the same from the command line.

If you have come to rely on not being forced to upgrade too quickly when using non-LTS versions of Ubuntu, then your luck has finally run out. Starting with the 13.04 'Raring Ringtail' release the 18 month support period for non-LTS releases will be cut in half to 9 months.
Whether you're a new Linux user or you've been using Linux for a while, we'll help you get started with the terminal. The terminal isn't something you should be scared of – it's a powerful tool with lots of uses.
Entering your online-banking or email passwords on an untrusted computer – particularly one in a public place – is risky. If you had a USB drive with Linux installed on it, you could log into your accounts without fear.
You will usually see the Linux operating system referred to as "Linux" online. However, the term "GNU/Linux" is occasionally used instead. Linux and GNU/Linux refer to the same operating system and software, and there's a controversy over which term is more appropriate.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) makes unlocking cell phones, ripping DVDs, removing eBook DRM, and jailbreaking tablets illegal in the USA. However, there's another surprise: simply watching a DVD on Linux is also illegal.
We always hear how important it is to backup your data, but do we think about backing up our web-based email? We have shown you how to backup your Gmail account using programs in Windows, but what if you are using Linux?
Linux users often use the terminal to accomplish tasks. This can be intimidating if you're a new Linux user who wants a graphical environment that's easy to come to grips with, but you shouldn't be put off by the Linux terminal.
Linux's file system has quite a few differences from the Windows file system. You won't find any drive letters or backslashes, but you will find an alien-looking layout where files can have the same name, differing only in capitalization.
Install many third-party .deb packages on Ubuntu – even mainstream, high-quality software like Google Chrome and Skype – and you will see an error saying the package is of bad quality. We will explain what this scary-looking error actually means.
rsync is a protocol built for Unix-like systems that provides unbelievable versatility for backing up and synchronizing data. It can be used locally to back up files to different directories or can be configured to sync across the Internet to other hosts.

I have 5 tattoos, all on my lower/upper arms. I've always considered getting a gaming related tattoo, whether it be a favorite game of mine like Fallout or something more generic like a D-Pad. What are your thoughts on video game tattoos? If you have any, share some pictures!

Nothing against em, make sure it's something you want on you forever. I only have 1 very large tattoo covering a large part of my leg from the knee down. I have considered a gaming tattoo but there is nothing that means that much to me in the gaming world besides CS/D2 taking up most of my Middle School and High School life and WoW prior to actually becoming an adult.
If it's iconic (like mario, the nintendo 8 bit controller or something else) it could work but then again with the wrong design or putting it in the wrong spot it could go wrong. If nothing else just put it up on your shoulder/back area so you have some room to work with & don't have to deal with comments on it from people who don't play video games. For something like fallout 3 & I was going that route of getting a gaming themed tattoo, I'd go with one of the pipboy images (from either the perks or some of the art in fallout 3 or new vegas), then again that's me & you might go with something else, just pick something you like & you can always get an artist or yourself to draw it up on yourself with a sharpie or body paint to get a customized fake tattoo for a couple days to just play around with what you want or where to go with it & see what you think. GLHB!

I think there are very few things meaningful or appealing enough to occupy a stretch of your skin.
Generally anything from a video game falls outside of that group.

As long as it's something stylish then I think it'd be fine. Just not something like pixel art or fuckin' Sephiroth on your back. Wait what.
I think any pop culture themed tattoos are dumb. The tattoo will last a life time, but the fad you are currently crazy for will not. I personally think just random tattoos on a person are ugly as all hell, but if it has some special meaning to you then knock yourself out. It's your body. Just try to think about what you will think of it in 20-30 years time. I have always wanted to get a Brotherhood of NOD symbol tattoo on me somewhere because it has a deep personal meaning to me, but instead of running out to get it done as soon as I was old enough to I instead promised myself that if by the time I'm 30 I still wanted it I would get it. 4.6 more years to go!
Christ... now I feel old and sad. Thanks a lot OP.

If you do get something I'd make it something really subtle. For example, I was thinking of getting the weak spot on the colossus from shadow of the colossus, unless someone asks they'd never know. Still not sure if I'll get it but I think it'll work.

If you're gonna get a tattoo referencing something specific in culture, get something that people who are also fans will get but non-fans will still think looks cool. There's nothing worse than having to explain what your tattoo is referencing and your only response is "Video Games"
I love the idea of getting a subtle gaming tattoo. I'd love to do it some day. Nothing that's like a character or a game logo or anything that literally screams "VIDJA GAEMS!!!!!!!". But something more subtle that just looks like a normal tattoo to the uninformed, but has a gaming background. I'm thinking the design on the Aperture Science would look cool. But I don't know. I'm not going to rush into it, a tattoo is for life.

If it means anything to you. The most important thing for me is music, so I'm getting a music-related tattoo. If video games spawned the same feelings for me as music does, I'd get a gaming tattoo. Though I'm against any logos, catchphrases etc. Original tattoos all the way!

Only if it has personal meaning, which it does in my case.
I think if it's a piece of art that looks cool in its own right and just happens to be from or inspired by a game then it's ok. I think anything like a D-pad (anything which just says "OH HEY DID YOU KNOW I LIKE GAMES??") is lame as fuck.

Oh, god. I can only imagine the look on his face when it was finally pointed out to him.
But something like this is cool, for example.
(That's the Brotherhood of Steel's logo, for those that don't play Fallout).
Well first you have to consider this: If you're asking for the opinions of others about whether or not you should get a video game tattoo, then isn't it already apparent that you shouldn't? Getting tattooed is something you do as an ultimate form of expression to commemorate something sentimental to you. If you have to ask if others think a certain tattoo is cool or not to be blazoned onto your skin, then you're obviously more concerned with outward appearances, meaning that you let the judgement of others dictate the way that you live. That isn't very cool.

I use to want a tattoo, but I'm glad I didn't. I use to be a hardcore Christian, graduated from a Evangelical Bible college, and was going to go into the ministry. Ten years later and I'm now an atheist. Going years back I use to really want some kind of Christian tattoo. How stupid would I feel today with some fucking Greek phrase from the Bible on my arm?Tattoos never change, but you do. Or you should. If you aren't changing and growing as a person, you've got a problem.
Get a tattoo if you like, just think about it really hard I guess.

Seem to be in a minority here, but my left arm mostly consists of gaming related tattoos. So if you find something you like, just go for it... I might add some pictures later, although the sleeve is not done yet and actually I wanted to wait till it's done before I take some pictures of it.
P. S. I might mention that I am not one of those every tattoo stands for something in my life or has a deeper meaning to it types, which you tend to see a lot in those tattoo related reality soaps... If I'll like the design and know that I don't get bored after a few years I go for it. But as I can enjoy/appreciate some "destroyer lines" on walls... you should take my stance on tattoos, art etc with a grain of salt ;)
If you truly didn't care about outward appearances or the judgement of others then you wouldn't be concerned with tattoos or any other form of expressing yourself in the first place. You express yourself to others, not to yourself - that's why it's called an expression.

I've seen someone with a tattoo of, I guess a Mario level (8bit) tattooed around his waist. So if you walked around him you saw a few Iconic Mario things, a few enemy types, a few set pieces, and Mario, breaking some blocks. Its cool. But its all up to you. Do you want your body marked with someone's idea forever? I have a tattoo that was a drawing from my brother... and one that was a fuck you to the Marine Corps.... Both are badass... but my brothers is far better than the other one.. I was thinking about getting an EVE tat somewhere, just a tiny one, because that game is epic.

I was thinking of getting the song of storms done just like this.
Right, but you're expressing that dedication to your wife and your 'SF brothers'. You're communicating to the people closest to you how much it means to you, because -quite naturally- you care about what they think of you. If you didn't care what others thought you wouldn't need the tattoo, because you already know how much it means to you. When you talk to people about it, you tell them it's directly over your heart, again to convey the importance you place on it. Whether consciously or subconsciously, I think you care about it and what it says about you.
@Jimbo: You're right in certain cases, however, it would vary amongst different individuals as motivation for getting a tattoo is idiosyncratic. Personally for me, I view a permanent marking on my body as the greatest form of dedication to something meaningful to me (in my case my old ODA number). I have it located directly over my heart, always obscured by clothing, and only my wife, my SF brothers, and myself know it exists. But like I said, that's just me, and that's my reasoning for getting tattooed.
And when you say "that you expresses yourself to others, not to yourself", and that that's why it's called an expression, you're only speaking of a possible direction of expression. Many artists and musicians paint or play music simply to express their emotions at any given time, and those works aren't ever presented to the public. It's entirely possible to be expressive, and not necessitate that the expression be for the sake of others.
But in the end, I'm also wrong since I assumed the topic author's intentions of getting a tattoo were the same as mine.
I take your point about a musician playing to themselves (though I don't know whether I'd call it expressive to do so). I just think there's a contradiction between saying a tattoo is the ultimate form of expression and then suggesting it's not cool to consider how others might judge it. Personally, I think getting a tattoo just for the sake of looking cool is a totally legit reason, and if that is the motivation then it's just plain good sense to ask if people think it's cool before getting it done rather than afterwards.
Depends entirely what you're getting of course. In my opinion, one should either be able to stand for it for the rest of ones life (I have runes on my right arm, which is fine due to my ancestry) or it may symbolise something that you never want to forget - a reminder that growing up too much perhaps wouldn't be a good thing for you.
Also, the Emperor Protects.
I can't wait to get a tattoo so I can be unique, just like everyone else!
I have nothing against tattoos and dig chicks with tatts, but I don't give enough of a shit about anything in the world to have it stuck on my body for the rest of my life. Further, I'm from Portland, so having a tattoo is about as original as drinking coffee, beer, going to strip clubs, or wearing flannel.

Home > About Mary Greeley > News > 100 Great Nurses Honored With Award
Published on April 23, 2010
Ames, Iowa-Mary Greeley Medical Center is proud to announce that Terry DeWald, R.N., and Bret Peyton, R.N., have been selected to be honored among the 100 Great Iowa Nurses for 2010. DeWald is a registered nurse on the Oncology Unit and Peyton is a registered nurse in the Emergency Department at Mary Greeley Medical Center.
DeWald came to Mary Greeley Medical Center after hearing from her daughter, who was also an Oncology nurse, who spoke positively of the medical center. Much of DeWald's background was in long term care, but she enjoys working in Oncology. "I like the challenge of learning something new," she says. She also likes getting to know the patients and their families.
Peyton became interested in medicine after completing a basic-level EMT class in 1985. He came to Mary Greeley Medical Center in 2007 with over a decade of nursing experience. He credits the Emergency Department staff for their teamwork. "I've been very fortunate to have worked with professionals who have encouraged me," he says. "We're more of a family than coworkers."
The 100 Great Iowa Nurses award recognizes that the nurses have made a meaningful and lasting contribution to humanity and their profession and are viewed as a mentor to others. They exemplify the principles on which the 100 Great Nurses Celebration was founded.
The Mary Greeley Medical Center nurses will be among those honored on Sunday, May 2, at the 6th annual celebration of Iowa's Great Nurses. The 2010 honorees will gather at a reception at Hy-Vee Hall in Des Moines with their family, friends and colleagues, as well as past years' recipients, to be recognized for their outstanding careers and achievements.
Nurses selected for the honor represent many sectors of health care, including hospitals, long-term care facilities, and school and office nurses.

An ultrasonically vibrated dental scaling apparatus with liquid feed through the scaling tool, in which the tool is mounted to one end of a tuned coupler having a piezoelectric transducer at the other end, and the liquid feed is through the member which drives the tool.
1. Apparatus for scaling teeth comprising an elongated hollow tubular scaling tool having a working end formed for contacting the surface of a tooth to be cleaned of calculus, and a canal extending through the other end, means to introduce a liquid via said other end of the tool for delivery to the working end, and drive means consisting essentially of an electromechanical oscillator and a mechanical coupling component which vibrates in a longitudinal mode fixed together at a first end of said coupling component, a bending-mode vibrator fixed and supported in an intermediate region of its vibrational mode to the second end of said coupling component, said tool being coupled at said other end to said bending-mode vibrator in a peripheral second region thereof which is remote from said intermediate region, so as to impose elastic wave oscillations on said tool for vibrating the working end at a frequency above the audible frequency range.
2. Apparatus according to claim 1 in which said bending-mode vibrator is a disc which vibrates in an umbrella mode, and said coupling component is substantially of conical shape tapered from a larger transverse section at said first end to a smaller transverse section at said second end where it is fixed to said bending mode vibrator.
3. Apparatus according to claim 2 in which said coupling component has a mounting flange extending transversely from a region which is the locus of a node of the longitudinal vibration of said coupling component.
4. Apparatus according to claim 1 in which said bending-mode vibrator is a disc which vibrates in an umbrella mode, and said coupling component includes a tapered member which is tapered down from said electromechanical oscillator to said fixed support region of said bending mode vibrator.
5. Apparatus according to claim 1 in which said passage is through said second region of said bending mode member.
In the care of teeth it is important to remove accumulated deposits, called "calculus". This is now well known, and public education programs are carried out by both the dental profession and public health authorities with the intention that each person will take proper care of his or her teeth. Yet, in spite of all such efforts vast numbers of people do not take proper care of their teeth, with the result that dentists and dental hygienists must frequently remove calculus from the teeth of their patients before other treatments can be performed. This invention relates to an improved electromechanical apparatus for scaling teeth in a safe, gentle and effective way.
Teeth can be scaled by hand, using hand-scrapers made especially for the purpose, but that is a tiring and time-consuming process. To alleviate it, electromechanical scalers which vibrate mechanically at a high frequency, preferably above audible (ie: "ultrasonic"), have been introduced. Typically, prior electromechanical vibrating scalers are elongated tools that are driven into longitudinal vibration by an electromechanical transducer, to the end that one end of the tool when applied to the surface of a tooth will chip away the calculus deposited on that surface. These tools are effective, not only to remove calculus but, unfortunately, sometimes also to damage the tooth or the tissues surrounding it.
Apparatus for scaling teeth according to this invention comprises an elongated hollow tubular scaling tool having a working end formed for contacting the surface of a tooth to be cleaned of calculus, and a canal extending through the tool to the other end, through which water or other suitable liquid can be delivered to the working end during a scaling operation. Drive means is coupled to the other end of the tool for vibrating the working end at a frequency above the audible range. A second canal, or passage for a fluid, is provided through the drive means for introducing the liquid to the tool through the drive means. This combination has been found to be unusually effective and at the same time gentle for removing and flushing away calculus without damaging teeth or tissue surrounding them or causing pain to the patient. A description of presently preferred embodiments follows, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a partial longitudinal section through a scaler apparatus according to the invention;
FIG. 1A shows an assembly feature of FIG. 1;
FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a side view of the apparatus assembled to a handle; and
FIG. 3 is a partial longitudinal section through a second version of a scaler according to the invention.
FIGS. 1 and 3 show piezoelectric oscillation systems which are generally similar to those described in German Pat. No. 2,032,433 issued to Siemens AG Berlin and Munich on an application filed June 30, 1970 and first published Jan. 5, 1972. That patent is directed to the spraying of fluids in an atomizer. In the present invention the piezoelectric oscillating system is put to an entirely different use, which is not related to the spraying of liquids.
Referring to FIG. 1, a piezoelectric transducer element 1, made for example of barium titanate or other piezoelectric electromechanical converter material, is fixed at one side to the wide end of a cone-shaped mechanical coupling component 2. At the narrow end the coupling component is fixed to a working component 4. The acoustic length of the coupling component is such (e.g: one-half wave) that between the ends there is a nodal region, to which a mounting flange 3 is fixed. A tubular housing 8 surrounding the assembly 1-2-3-4 is fixed to the periphery of the mounting flange 3, and has a hole 9 in one end, for the passage of a scaling tool 5. A canal 10 passes through the coupling component 2, from a nipple 11 at the wide end to an internally-threaded socket 12 in the working component 4. The transducer element 1 has a central bore 13 through which the nipple 11 passes. A hose 7 or other suitable conduit is connected to the nipple for the purpose of bringing water or a dental treatment liquid to the canal 10. The socket 12 is open at its outer end, for receiving an externally-threaded connector 14 of the tool 5 (see FIG. 1A). A canal 6 extending axially through the tool couples end-to-end with the canal 10 when the tool 5 is assembled to the working component 4. The tool has a working end 15 that is shaped for scaling teeth in any known manner. The working end 15 is only one example of a useful shape for removing calculus from the surface of a tooth. In use, a fluid passing through the canals 10 and 6 is directed at the working end 15, where it is applied to the tooth being scaled, and to the surrounding tissue.
The housing 8 can be attached to a handle 25 by means of any suitable attachment, such as the bayonet mount 26, as is shown in FIG. 2. A supply of liquid 21 can be connected to the hose 7, the liquid supply being carried within or on the handle 25, or remote via an extended conduit, as may be desired by the user. A source 33 of appropriate electrical oscillations, shown in FIG. 1, may be connected via wires 31, 32 across the piezoelectric transducer element 11, for setting the piezoelectric element into oscillation at a desired frequency, all as is well known in the piezoelectric transducer art. These components 33, 32, 31 may be housed in the handle 25, in which case known means (not shown) to supply electric energy to the source of oscillations 33, together with suitable switching means, will also be included in a working device embodying the invention.
In FIG. 3, the piezoelectric element 22 is a disc without a central aperture and the working component 24 is disc-shaped, able to vibrate in a bending mode, illustrated by a dashed line 28 in a curved locus representing a dish-shaped posture the working component 24 can assume at a moment during a cycle of its oscillation in a bending mode which is known as the "umbrella" mode. The peripheral part of the working component moves back and forth parallel to the axis A--A of the coupling component 2, which already, according to the above-mentioned Ger. Patent No. 2,032,433, has concentrated the vibration from the piezoelectric transducer element 22 with increased amplitude in the center of the working component 24. The peripheral part of the working component may amplify still further the amplitude of vibration. An internally-threaded socket 42 is provided through the working component 24, near the periphery of the working component, for receiving the externally-threaded connector 14 of a tool 5. The connector 14 can extend through the working component for connection directly to a hose 7. Alternatively, a nipple (not shown) like the nipple 11 in FIG. 1, can be fitted to the working component 24. The hose 7 is in this version of the invention taken out through a hole in the side of the housing 18, in which the hole 19 for passage of the tool 5 is off set from the axis A--A to accomodate the fact that the tool 5 is offset from the axis.

The A1 was my first foray back into film a couple of years back. I found the digital readout counter intuitive, especially for calculating compensation. I like a needle a lot more - such as in an AE1. I now use a Nikon FM3a.

What's in a Name: New Jerusalem an old name for diverse northwest neighborhood
Where is it?
The old neighborhood of New Jerusalem is roughly located in the area north of West Sixth Street and west of Sassafras Street.
What's the story?
After entrepreneur William Himrod bought up most of the area in 1828 and 1829, he named the neighborhood New Jerusalem, although the exact reason behind the name is unclear. Theories over the years have varied from Himrod's religious devotion to the number of Jewish families that bought lots, according to "The Erie Centurama," compiled by John B. Rogers and the Erie Centennial Commission.
Property records show that many of the affordable lots also were purchased by black families, according to "Journey from Jerusalem" by Sarah S. Thompson. One such settler, Bristo Logan, was a former slave who became a prominent businessman.

A new program will use federal funds to help low-income Anchorage families preserve and repair their mobile homes.
In partnership with the municipality, the Rural Alaska Community Action Program, or RuralCAP, is preparing to harness a federal community development block grant of $400,000 and target improvements in mobile home roofs, skirting and foundations. The funds will also go toward fixing defective water heating systems and hot water tanks.
Through the program, up to $20,000 can be spent repairing a mobile home built in or after 1978. Pointing to Anchorage's widespread affordable housing shortage, officials said the objective of the Mobile Home Repair Program is to help low-income families stay in their homes as long as possible.
The program is relatively small in scale. Officials said the goal is to repair a total of 16 units a year.
"There's more need, of course, but at least these funds are here to help some folks out," said Kent Banks, director of the RuralCAP weatherization program.
After expanding rapidly in the 1970s, Anchorage's mobile home parks have slowly deteriorated over the years. Since 2000, nearly 500 mobile homes have been demolished or moved to make way for other developments.
At the same time, the municipality has recognized the role of mobile homes in Anchorage's affordable housing stock. Many mobile home owners are low-income and have trouble keeping up with maintenance, said Melinda Freemon, manager of the Department of Health and Human Services' Public Health Initiatives and Partnerships Division.
After reviewing the 2013 Housing and Community Development Annual Action Plan, the Anchorage Assembly last year asked for a program dedicated specifically to the repair and preservation of mobile homes. Freemon noted that it costs at least $75,000 for a new single-wide trailer, and at least $100,000 for a double-wide trailer.
That same amount of funding can rehabilitate multiple units and extend their life a decade or more, Freemon said.
"We feel it's most important to help extend the longevity and livability of those homes rather than just purchase new ones," Freemon said.
To qualify for the new program, a mobile homeowner must make at or below 80 percent of Anchorage's median income. After an application is approved, an inspection and an environmental review will determine if repair work can proceed on the home. If a roof is caving in, for example, the mobile home will not qualify for minor repair work, Banks said.
Officials hope the new program will complement RuralCAP's weatherization program and also free up resources in other repair programs in the municipality. The municipality's Minor Repair Program, which fixes up homes as well as mobile homes, has run in some form since 1997 and is currently operated by NeighborWorks Anchorage.
That program is in its last contract year, and its future has yet to be determined, Freemon said.
Officials were not able to provide an official starting date for the Mobile Home Repair Program. Anyone seeking more information about the program can call RuralCap at 279-2511.

Kevin Love heard a couple of snide remarks from the normally adoring Minnesota crowd, and it had nothing to do with his 3-for-17 shooting night against Denver. Some disparaging comments about the Timberwolves organization and his contract appeared to get a few fans a little riled up, and Nikola Pekovic and JJ Barea stepped in to deliver a much-needed win against the road-weary Nuggets. Pekovic had 22 points and 11 rebounds and the Timberwolves used a big advantage at the free throw line to overcome Love's shooting struggles in a 108-105 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night. Barea had 17 points, eight assists, five rebounds and two steals, while Love finished with eight points and grabbed 14 rebounds on a day he had to explain to Minnesota's owner some critical comments he made about the franchise. ''I heard a few things from the fans that weren't too pleasant,'' Love said. The Timberwolves shot under 40 percent for much of the game, but made 30 of 37 from the free...

Well it's a pretty short ban!
I see you are playing KH 3D! That game is awesome, it gave me faith in the series after the horrible KH Re: Coded!
And yeah, game is pretty cool, but I don't how you would loose faith with re:coded... I think everyone knew wasn't gonna add something to the story. Other than that game, every game in the KH franchise is outstanding.
Didn't finished 3D yet since I'm playing Fir Emblem and a couple games more at the same time but so far it is really good. About being the best handheld game, I don't know if can top Chain of Memories or BBS tbh.

StoryI love Chinese food and so do my hubby and daughter. This Chinese chicken Manchurian recipe is one that I make very often at home. I like to pair it with a chicken hakka noodle or fried rice, some soy sauce and chilli in vinegar and my lip-smacking meal is ready.

As far as I know Chicken Manchurian is an indo-chinese fusion recipe. Although I have not tried the same with beef, I think there shouldn't be any harm experimenting. However, as you may know, this will definitely increase the cooking time (as cooking beef takes a little longer than chicken) and it will also affect the flavor of the dish.

text: It makes sense that the only game I've ever played that came close to what Heavy Rain accomplishes is Quantic Dream's prior effort, Indigo Prophecy. Compared to what it has achieved here, that game seems like proof-of-concept and is improved upon in every possible way. Heavy Rain is an experience that will have you unable to put down your controller from beginning to end, and you'll likely be looking back on what an amazing, unique and moving experience it was for years to come. I know I'll be. -
