Suppose I want to read an indexed image as it is( not the 3 channel 24 bit images) I wish to read and modify the color palette of an indexed image. In opencv I haven't come across any such functions which extract the color palette of an image! Also I would like to know the datatype of the palette. i am coding in c using opencv Any help?
Well, I don't think OpenCV has any function to do this. The cvLoadImage() or imread() functions use libpng for codecs to directly read images.
Check the documentation for further information
Thanks for the image link. First, OpenCV doesn't support GIF (as Ameya005 linked). However there are other indexed palette image formats. It couldn't get an indexed palette image in OpenCV so unless I have missed something, I don't think you are going to be able to work with indexed palettes directly in OpenCV. It sounds like you need an alternative solution. Why do you need to work directly with the indexed palettes?
The second option below though would probably let you have the indexes in OpenCV (the palette would be lost) if that's all you need.
Here is what I've tried:
Load a paletted PNG (gets converted to 3-channel color)
Load a paletted GIF (gets converted to grayscale)
I guess this is converting to grayscale with the index used as intensity, but I haven't verified it.
Create a paletted image from scratch in OpenCV
I haven't found any way to do this.

Miranda announced that PBS affiliates KUED-DT (channel 7) and KULC-DT (channel 9) in Salt Lake City are using its Kaleido-K2 multi-image display system for monitoring over-the-air signals.
The two channels broadcast from consolidated master control facilities at the Eccles Broadcast Center on the campus of the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.
Master control operations for the stations are handled from one control center, where the Kaleido-K2 allows operators to monitor both station's streams from a single position. The signals on the stations include the usual fare of PBS shows, PBS HD signals, PBS Kids Channel and various educational programs, as well as the Annenberg/CPB channel for students and teacher certification.
Designed for mission-critical and advanced monitoring applications such as multichannel playout centers, Miranda's Kaleido-K2 is a robust 32-input, modular, multi-image display processor designed to simplify HD/SD broadcast monitoring requirements. The system provides full integration with Miranda's master control switching and infrastructure monitoring systems and features a dual-head output option, HD image quality support, and integrated multidisplay and router control by mouse.

Dr. Leir does raise some questions that should at least have people slightly scratching their head as to these mysterious object's commonalities:
1. No visible entry points or scars near the object. How did it get into the subject?
2. No INFLAMMATORY response! This, by most medical standards is supposed to be an impossibility. Any foreign body that is lodged in the dermal or soft tissue should invoke an inflammatory response in the surrounding tissue-Yet these foreign objects appear to create no such response and appear to be accepted by the surrounding tissue.
3. The objects are and sheathed in a thick amount of nerve proprioceptors which are not anatomically correct, according to the Dr.
4. Metallurgic Testing by both Los Alamos and New Mexico Tech Labs indicated that the extracted bodies contained a highly unusual configuration of elements

Just telling you how it is. I know who you are & what you are all about.
This is the first time I've actually gone through this thread because I felt that it was pretty much nonsense. But regardless of what you or I believe, your health is a completely different issue. There is a lot of anecdotal evidence of the success of non-traditional treatments, but overall their track record is much worse than the mainstream therapies like chemo and radiation. The successes of these fringe treatments are loudly proclaimed, but the overwhelmingly more common failures are never mentioned. Before you write off traditional medicine and possibly jeopardize your life, check out statistics from scientifically reliable sources. As a heathcare professional myself, I do not believe that the scientific community has an agenda of hiding effective but less lucrative treatments and fudging data to promote less effective ones.
Best of luck to you,
Atrophy: what you get when you win atournament.
I have been battling this for 2 1/2 years now. I will be updating what I am doing on my 1000th post thread.
I have a friend, Amy, who has been battling Breast cancer for 3 years. She has been telling me to do both. However the radiation destroyed her spine & now she is 3 inches shorter & has metal plates in her back. She is in constant pain. She tried several natural approaches with little result. She started the chemo & the cancer stopped growing.
However she did start treatments with a Vibe machine, Vibe Machine - Energy Medicine and here are some interesting facts:
1) Her hair grew back. All the Doctors @ Moffitt, one of the top cancer hospitals int he country, said that they have NEVER heard of that happening.
2) The chemo was making her so sick before but after using the Vibe she did not get sick.
3) Last year she however stopped doing BOTH the chemo & the Vibe for a while. The cancer started growing again. She started using the VIBE solely & now the cancer has stopped growing. She no longer does the chemo.
Maybe your personal experiences tell you that no one is trying to stop alternative treatments but reading this book will reveal a different story, Forbidden Medicine, A Book by author Ellen Brown. Jimmy was a friend of mine for sure, that's no lie. He went thru hell. He had about a 90% success rate.
Also the clinic I go to IS getting results & they were raided 4 years ago. They were never charged with anything & just got their medical files back this month, Utopia MediSpa and Wellness Institute - Home. They have videos from some of their patients. One of my friends, Ed is now 95% cancer free in 14 weeks after being told my his cancer doctor that he was going to die as he had 3 different types of cancer. In 2 weeks of treatment, my main tumor is shrinking.
I have stated that people need to take responsibility for their own health & not just believe what any Doctor tells them no matter what their persuasion is. You have to find out for yourself what you need to do to handle your physical well being.
As regard to the topic of this thread if anyone took the time to study the research they would find that there are some mysteries here minimally. Dr. Leir is a real doctor who has done real surgeries & extracted real objects from people made of materials that no one can explain, even after intense scientific scrutiny. My interest in this started when a friend of mine scheduled a surgery with one of Dr. Leir's colleagues. We met with them in Laughlin where I have a 2nd home. I can assure you, it is no joke.

Good luck with your cancer. No matter what treatment you choose, I hope it works out.

Signals and Systems, 2nd Edition
Prentice Hall | 1996-08-06 | ISBN: 0138147574 | 957 pages | PDF | 13 MB
The second edition of this well-known and highly regarded text can be used as the basis for a one- or two-semester undergraduate course in signals and linear systems theory and applications. Topics include basic signals and systems concepts, linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, Fourier representations of continuous-time and discrete-time signals, the CT and DT Fourier transforms, and time- and frequency-domain analysis methods. The author emphasizes applications of the theory through numerous examples in filtering, sampling, communications, and feedback. The parallel development of continuous-time and discrete-time frequency domain methods allows the reader to apply insights and intuition across the two domains. It also facilitates a deeper understanding of the material by bringing into focus the similarities and differences between the two domains. The text also includes introductory chapters on communication systems and control theory. This book assumes that you have a background in calculus as well as exposure to complex numbers and elementary differential equations. Because of its thoroughness and unhurried pace, this text is highly recommended for students and those interested in self-study.

The OF, while not offering much to help when the Reds lost guys in 2013, suddenly looks like a pretty deep pipeline. Maybe I'm looking through reds colored glasses, but it seems like a pretty decent group of guys who may play a role in the majors some day. How would you rank them?
A Baker's dozen
1. Billy Hamilton (not sure he's still at the top, but I'm not ready to buck all the experts who put him among the top 50 prospects in baseball)
2. Jesse Winker - Guy is going to hit IMO.
3. Phil Ervin - All Around good player
4. Yorman Rodriguez - Tools aplenty
5. Junior Arias - Power, Speed. Defense will come IMO.
6. Donald Lutz - Big Time Power and more athletic than people think
7. Juan Silva - Still Young and Starting to get it
8. Jonathon Reynoso - More Tools and could be a lot higher
9. Kyle Waldrop - Seems like he's always on the verge of taking the next step. Lots of extra base pop.
10. Jeff Gelalich - Too Soon to give up on a sandwich pick
11. Gabriel Rosa - A move to the OF may unlock his bat. Seeing flashes this year.
12. Juan Duran - there was a reason for that big bonus, but I wonder if a move to 1B would be better.
13. Ryan Lamarre - Speed, defense still hoping the light goes on.
Older guys who may fill bench roles: Denis Phipps, Felix Perez, Josh Fellhauer, Bryson Smith
Unknowns who show some potential: Kevin Garcia, Aristedes Aquino, Jon Matthews, Dalton Carter

Resurrection Health Care's Statement on Pro-Life
In the aftermath of the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act PPACA, there is ongoing discussion about its effectiveness and implementation of the subsequent Executive Order to prevent federal funding for abortion and what the implications might be for Catholics.
At Resurrection Health Care, we re-affirm our commitment to respect life from the moment of conception to its providential end. We have always been, are, and will always be absolutely and unequivocally against abortion and federal funding for it.
Resurrection Health Care, through its ministries, is motivated by a reverence for life in a few ways related to prenatal and post-partum care (see below). In addition, Resurrection has multiple ways that it witnesses to respect for life in its care for children, adults and those who are dying. Details on all of these ministries can be found on our website.
- New Beginnings Program or prenatal, delivery and postpartum care of mothers and babies on public aide or uncovered by insurance - clinic sites at Holy Family Medical Center and Our Lady of the Resurrection Medical Center and deliveries at Resurrection Medical Center.
- Free home visits by Resurrection Medical Center nurses to check on mothers and babies after discharge from hospital.
- Resurrection Medical Center serves as a host site for the Archdiocese Natural Family Program Classes.
- Provide "memory boxes", prayer support and annual grief support service to parents who experience the loss of a baby at any stage of gestation.
- All Resurrection Health Care Hospitals provide training to nurses in the Ethical and Religious Directives (ERDs).
- The physicians of all Resurrection Health Care hospitals receive a copy of the ERDs and are asked to sign an agreement to adhere to them. This is signed by every physician every two years.
- Emergency nurses and physicians of all Resurrection Health Care hospitals are trained in the management and compassionate support of rape victims in accord with the ERDs.
With all of you in the communities we serve, we pray for the efficacy of the legislation that was passed, the collaboration of all of us who love life in the support of and enhancement of a healthy life for all. We ask for your trust in and support for Resurrection, a Catholic Health Care system that lives out the values of our Religious Sponsors, the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth and the Sisters of the Resurrection.

I'd like to see public posts because we can build on each others work. look what Australia got done while the East Coast USA was sleeping!
Randy - our followers will see the project posts. And then there's a focal point to keep requests from being lost. I couldn't find yesterday's discussion from Eowyn easily, but in the project, very quickly.
Today at 8:54 AM
"...One more question - would you like me to post each request individually or add them to the one page where some are currently listed?.."
I'd suggest we keep them on the one page initially for better visibility "front page" visibility. If that becomes unwieldy we can reevaluate...besides listing requests on the project description page is how Jason initially started organizing things when he started this project.
Private User good points. Thanks for the feedback.

Guess it depends on how many requests we have. It might make more sense to just link the name and paste the provided information into the "About" section, or perhaps it's own discussion thread. If in the about section, then it would have the added privacy protection of the profile, but it may potentially limit non-curators, as they would have to request management of the profile to gain visibility. If posted in a discussion thread, links could easily be provided to the public ancestors (if there are any).

Eowyn Langholf (GFR Cousin Coordinator), I've added <private> Paquet & to the project page as completed with a path to A.J. Bryan Shuy does have an account on Geni and I've sent him a message requesting a merge of his tree with the one we've created that connects him to the world tree. His brother Justin Shuy also has a small tree, though he has not logged in for some time.
May I suggest that when you contact users about the path to A.J. along with the question of joining the site, you let them know that their tree exists here and we'd like them to claim it, so that we can turn over management to them and allow them to expand it. In many cases, if someone asks me to join a site, I'll probably say no, but if you tell them their profile exists here, their family tree and ancestors exist here and we want them to take ownership of it, that may change their answer and get them more involved. Also let them know that there is no cost.

Dreams do come true - believe, reach out and live life to the fullest!
This is it. I am finally doing it and I am excited about it. What can be better than to embark on a journey that will bring you to a special someone, someone to share your experiences, your laughs and your every-day moments with? Me in a nutshell? An import from Europe, 12 years ago, I love being outdoors and spending my free time actively. I feel super lucky to live in Marin County, even though I grew up in a bit city (San Francisco is round around the corner if I feel like dancing, fine dining or great entertainment). I enjoy hiking, jogging, playing tennis, just to name a few. Traveling has always been a big part of my life, however a full- time job does not allow me to do it as freely and as often as I would like to. There is still quite a few things on my bucket list that I hope to accomplish in this lifetime :-) I always try to think of fun ways to spend my time off and experience something new. Occasionally, I like to treat myself to a visit to a museum, a nice performance at the opera house or symphony hall, not to mention a great live concert, which always turns out to be a fun outing with my friends. I surround myself with good people and my family and friends are very dear to me. I enjoy trying new things, being with nature and finding happiness in little things. Even one-day, local trips can enrich you, expand your horizons and bring a smile to your face. That said, I would love for my partner to enjoy an active life style (not excessively nor obsessively, of course) and be able to find a good balance between his professional and 'his own' time and time spent with me. He needs to have a good sense of humor and be able to make me laugh. I love to laugh! Life is a journey and even if the road leads up the hill, you need to be able to laugh out loud. I like for my man to be thoughtful, driven and a true friend. I'm positive that you are somewhere out there. We just need to find the right path to each other. Let's go.
Camping , Dining out , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing
Cycling, Dancing, Running, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.

I don't have much time for reading, unfortunately but I love a good novel!

Aloha Airlines is back on course after filing for US Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but the Hawaii-based carrier still faces hostile tides. Chief executive Dave Banmiller, a longtime airline doctor, talks to David Field.The deal to satisfy hold-out objectors was clinched outside a men's room downtown, but Banmiller, peripatetic fixer-upper of ailing airlines, says that now he's satisfied everyone, the delayed emergence of Aloha Airlines from its bankruptcy reorganisation is on for Friday 17 February. It was postponed from a Christmas date when last-minute protests emerged from the federal pension watchdog.The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) filed several objections a few minutes before the deadline on the Friday afternoon of the last day of the objection period back in December, says Banmiller, who adds that he was in negotiations with the PBGC within hours. After the PBGC's protest over the proposed termination of several pensions schemes, Aloha had to rewrite its plan to accommodate these added costs and the rising price of fuel. The final approvals and agreements came just minutes before a final hearing in the bankruptcy court building in downtown Honolulu, with Banmiller making mobile phone calls from just outside the restrooms."But coming out," says Banmiller, "we'll have more equity than before and better equity/debt ratio, one of the best in the industry. We are now a 60-year-old startup company with a low-cost structure," having cut annual operating expenses by $75 million. The modified deal, worth $98 million, provides $64 million in fresh equity, $15 million in exit debt financing and a $20 million revolving loan fund. The previous reorganisation plan was worth $100 million and provided $50 million in cash and up to $50 million in debt. The new deal also includes $4.5 million more in cost savings. Banmiller, who had earlier done workouts at Air Jamaica, Sun Country - one of the Pan Am resurrections - and other struggling carriers such as Sun Jet, was sorry he couldn't do the Aloha reorganisation within the year as targeted. He calls the delays "just sort of a bump along the way". Once the chief operating officer of Air California and then vice president-international at American after it bought out Air Cal, Banmiller is too diplomatic to point out that its island rival, the considerable larger Hawaiian Airlines, took about twice as long to do its Chapter 11 reorganisation. The next step: intensified marketing for local business and business on the West Coast mainland markets that Aloha serves. That won't be easy: Aloha flies ETOPS-approved B737s, while Hawaiian flies B767s, and is about to add four more to its fleet of 18 in a deal that gives it some former Delta aircraft. And on the home front, Mesa Air Groups says its plans to offer low-fare inter-island regional jet service are going ahead, while locally owned Island Air just last month won regulatory approval to use larger Dash-8s on its local service.But Banmiller found an upside when he redid the Aloha reorganisation: more hometown participation. The plan had always included the Ching and Ing families, two longstanding pillars of Hawaiian commerce that had helped found the airline in 1946 as Trans-Pacific Airlines (TPA). The January plan brings in a new group, Aloha Hawaii Investors, which includes notable investors Duane Kurisu and Colbert Matsumoto, who have also helped rescue a Honolulu radio station and newspaper. The group added $2.2 million to the total, while the chief investor, California supermarket billionaire Ron Burkle added another $10 million. Banmiller says the hometown investment has the advantage of supporting the airline's identity as the local airline. Honolulu locals recall that in the bad old days when island society was strictly segregated along ethnic, racial and class lines, the old 'TPA' was seen as 'the people's airline'. Local lore has it that on some airlines, native Hawaiians were removed from flights to make room for a visitor or a westerner - but not on 'TPA'. Whether this is strictly accurate - and one has to hope it isn't - the hometown branding has to help in Aloha's bid to attract the large number of island expats, Hawaiians who work on the mainland but still travel home frequently. ('TPA' became Aloha in 1958). Banmiller says that once the funding is completed and the exit formalised, "the focus will be on the employees. They have made the sacrifices and the contributions that kept Aloha alive."

Re: *Vika Azarenka Cheering Thread* - Vikalume 4.
I don't think her level dropped at the AO, in fact rounds 3 and 4 were as well as she'd played in a non-Serena match for a long time. From non-Serena matches probably only the Pennetta semifinal was at a similar level. Coming into the year I was worried that she'd continue with the attitude and performance from Beijing and Istanbul but things were really starting to build and come together in Melbourne. So she had a bad match against Agnieszka ... Li Na with her extraordinary improvements in serve, forehand, movement etc etc played a bad match against Safarova.
I hope Vika doesn't chuck the good stuff away and spend the next weeks in LA being "mentally tired". I'm not that happy to see her at all this Grammy bollocks but she may also be practising during the day. There were significant improvements from late last year to now and you don't return to GOAT level straight away, these things have setbacks, I think if she keeps working and continues her overall improvement she'll get back to a very good consistent level.

Futher setback for relaunch of former cinema as lorry ploughs into canopy
Posted: March 22, 2014|
A FORMER Burton cinema which is in the process of being transformed into a restaurant and nightclub has suffered a further setback ahead of its grand reopening.
The former Robins Cinema in Guild Street was due to open in May, but that has now been put back after a lorry struck the canopy on the front of the building on Thursday night, causing it to come crashing down on to the pavement, part of which has been closed to pedestrians.
Dee Sandhu, who is involved in the renovation process, told the Mail: "I got a call saying that a lorry had hit the side of the building, so I went out with my brother and spoke to police, who were already there.
"It's a big blow for us because we were due to open on May 1."
"We don't know how much it's going to cost until we get a quote to have it repaired, and it depends on a number of other factors.
"I can't put a date on when we'll be opening as now we've got to get in contact with the insurance company and it now it's down to how long they take to get our claim sorted."
"I'm busy sorting out other things and this is just a further setback for the reopening."
The original opening date was scheduled for 2013, but In December the Mail reported that this had not happened due planning restrictions placed on the Grade-II listed building, but that they had since been approved with a planned opening date this spring.
The cinema, which first opened in 1935 as The Ritz and closed in 1999, has had its seats ripped out of both auditoriums to create one large room. The plan is set to see a nightclub open upstairs while a buffet restaurant which will seat 350 people will open on the ground floor. A spokesperson for Staffordshire Police said: "We received a call at 8.10pm on Thursday and two police cars attended the scene. A lorry had struck the building, damaging the overhang. No-one was injured and police also called for the Highways Agency."

Excellent location for a relaxing break
Fantastic lodge in a wonderful location. Barbara and Donald are welcoming and friendly. An ideal place to explore the local area, the hot tub is fabulous in a lovely setting. Summer or winter this is a great holiday
Lovely peaceful setting, very clean and well appointed lodge. Will recommend to family and friends.
Had a fantastic 4 nights at the lodges. Not the most fantastic of views but peaceful surroundings and the lodges are fantastically well equipped with nothing of note missing. Hot tub, double shower/spa and jacuzzi/bath were wonderful. Helpful but not intrusive staff
beautiful lodge and surroundings, great location and we would love to go back
My partner and I stayed at the lodges for a weekend in April. Lodges are 5* with stunning views, well equiped and immaculate. Loads to do and explore in the area. Would highly recommend and hope to return.
Originally thought it was pricey but on arrival it all made sense. You get exactly what you pay for!
wonderful week. can't wait to come back
beautiful surroundings and accommodation. couldn't have asked for a better, more relaxing countryside getaway!
An absolutely gorgeous retreat. Views are outstanding, place is piecefull & secluded. Couldn't of asked for better weather while we where there. Plenty of places to go. Loch Ness & Urquhart Castle where fantastic. Will definitely recommend to friends & family. 10 out of 10
Lovely lodge in beautiful, peaceful surroundings and equipped to a very high standard. Owners pleasant and welcoming. Would definitely stay again and would not hesitate to recommend to others.
A peaceful farm location tucked away yet so close to Inverness and the water! We were unlucky enough to have stayed when the Highlands were experiencing 100mph winds and rain storms and during one night we lost power, water and road egress due to fallen trees. The Lodge owners were so helpful and kind in bringing us hot food and supplies and making us comfortable until the trees were removed and we could safely leave. We couldn't have asked for a better service with the circumstances beyond their control and we were made to feel like family. I fell ill during the storms and they even had their neighbour boil water for hot water bottles to keep me warm- truly wonderful people and very comfortable luxury accommodation! Very dog friendly too.
Lodges have everything you could want and much more. Watching shooting stars from hot tub was amazing. Lambs playing in field in front of veranda was a highlight. Amazing place.
Myself and my Partner had an amazing long weekend at the lodges, the setting is lovely, and local taxi's can find the lodge no problem and is less than £20 to the heart of inverness from the location. the Hot Tub and Showers are amazing and all the decor and furnishing within the lodge was very modern and very well kept. I would highly recommend this location to any couple who would like a quiet weekend away or a romantic weekend.
Although we are 'country folks' this location wouldn't suit some, as the lodges are on a sheep farm, with the 'Beauly Lodge' right beside farm buildings.
my holiday went well it is a really nice place and i have told a few friends. i can not really comment on staff as i only saw them once.

Actor, producer, writer and director Seth Rogen will guest-star on The Mindy Project on Tuesday, Feb. 19 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. In the episode, "The One That Got Away," MINDY (Mindy Kaling) reunites with her "first kiss," SAM (Seth Rogen). The pair reminisce about their time at Jewish summer camp, and soon rekindle the sparks of their teen romance.
Seth Rogen is currently starring in the feature film "The Guilt Trip," opposite Barbara Streisand. He recently completed production on the apocalyptic comedy "The End of the World," which he co-directed along with friend and writing partner Evan Goldberg (the film also features Mindy Kaling). Past film credits include "50/50," "Knocked Up," "Superbad," "Pineapple Express," "The Green Hornet" and "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." His TV credits include "Undeclared" and "Freaks and Geeks."
THE MINDY PROJECT returns with all-new episodes starting tonight, Tuesday, Jan. 8 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. Mindy hopes the new year will allow her to put last year's mistakes behind her, including the less-than-graceful way she handled her ex-boyfriend's wedding and the demise of her relationship with a lying, cheating sports attorney. Even if the universe is trying to turn her into a forever-single "cat lady," Mindy is determined to get into shape, find a new look and snag a great guy. As the season continues, she attempts to have a one-night stand with midwife BRENDAN (guest star Mark Duplass), but Mindy's plans have a way of going awry. Meanwhile, DANNY (Chris Messina) meets a younger woman (guest star Allison Williams), and Mindy's brother, RISHI (guest star Utkarsh Ambudkar), pays a visit from college.
THE MINDY PROJECT is produced by 3 Arts Entertainment in association with Universal Television. The series is created and written by Mindy Kaling, and executive produced by Kaling, Howard Klein ("The Office," "Parks and Recreation"), Matt Warburton ("The Simpsons") and Michael Spiller ("Modern Family").

Critical Review by Wendy Smith
SOURCE: "Future Imperfect: Los Angeles 2052," in Washington-Post, Aug 16, 1992, Sec. BW, p. 5.
In the following review, Smith praises the skillfully evoked atmosphere and the "finely wrought prose" of In the Heart of the Valley of Love.
Readers of Cynthia Kadohata's first novel, The Floating World, will recognize in her second the deadpan, slightly ironic voice of a female protagonist who describes her adventures in a strange, unpredictable environment with lyrical images that create the magical atmosphere—and the cool emotional distance—of a fairy tale. In the Heart of the Valley of Love's Francie is 19, while Olivia was 12 at the beginning of The Floating World, but the older selves who look back in the two books to examine their youth from some unspecified future date sound very much the same.
The pasts they consider, however, are radically different. Olivia and her family roamed across Arkansas and the Pacific Northwest in the 1950s driven by prejudice and the imperatives of her parents' troubled marriage from one self-contained Japanese-American community to the next. Francie scrambles to eke out an existence in and around Los Angeles in the year 2052, when the only meaningful social distinction is the gulf between the inhabitants of the "richtowns" that exist in every American city, who attend universities and go into business as though nothing had changed in 100 years, and everyone else: the "non-whites and poor whites [who] made up sixty-four percent of the population but made only twenty percent of the legal purchases," a population in which half the adults can't read and all have been excluded from the nation's economy.
In this nastily plausible near-future, riots and brownouts are everyday occurrences, the privatized mail delivery hardly functions, gas and water credits are more valuable than cash, the remains of unfinished highways arch over the plains "like half of concrete rainbows," a pollution-induced skin disease raises "black pearls" under almost everyone's skin and most people avoid the 12 1/2 percent sales tax by buying on the black market. The legal order bears so little relation to reality that "just about everybody broke laws all the time … There was probably nobody in the entire country, except a few …, who couldn't be arrested for something. Occasionally, the police arrested a randomly chosen person, and if you went searching for him or her, they might arrest you too."
As in The Floating World, atmosphere is Kadohata's strong point. She skillfully evokes a dangerous, capricious world in which "with people dying or getting arrested or all the time leaving each other, you hated to love people, you really did." Francie's narration has the authentic, burned-out sound of a shell-shocked survivor, still open to experience—her descriptions of the creepy 21st-century landscape are the best things in the novel—but wary of emotional involvement. Her attitude towards sex is chillingly matter-of-fact (AIDS has apparently been eliminated, or at least is never mentioned), and although she frequently claims to love Mark, the student she meets when she enrolls at a local two-year college, the relationship she shows us seems compounded more of physical proximity than any real closeness. Seldom has a novel's title been more at odds with its essence.
Kadohata's point may be that the nature of intimacy has changed in a time when getting through the day is a top priority, but this doesn't make for a very compelling story. The reader quickly comes to share Francie's detached attitude towards the rest of the characters, none of whom is as intriguing or as strongly sketched as the iron willed grandmother, sexually restless mother and gentle father in The Floating World. The author's lack of interest in plotting, already apparent in her first book, becomes more problematic here: Olivia's narrative, although diffuse, gained some momentum and direction from the simple fact that it showed her growing up and moving away from her family; Francie acquires an apartment and a boyfriend, but there's no sense of her learning or changing over the course of the novel.
Despite its coldness and lack of storytelling drive. In The Heart of the Valley of Love offers much to admire. Kadohata's scathing social commentary has as much to say about America today as in the year 2052; if our politicians read novels and had any sense of shame, it would make them squirm with its vision of a nation that has abandoned all pretense of including everyone in the social contract. Her finely wrought prose creates haunting pictures that linger long after her flatly conceived characters have faded from memory. When this talented writer decides to tell a story and people it with three-dimensional figures, her gift for images and ideas will have a truly powerful fictional outlet.

I thought everyone's leaked once the milk comes in! I heard all about leaking breats when your baby cries etc. but mine haven't leaked once in the past 2 weeks since my LO was born. Now I'm beginning to worry about my supply. We haven't had any issues so far but today it seemed like there was no milk when my LO wanted it and he cried miserably with hunger - latching on one breast and then the other and then crying when he apparantly didn't get any milk. Thankfully I had a couple of ounces I had pumped before and he took it all in a few minutes, he was so hungry!
Anyone have any advice? I'm really worried now!

The owner of Metro East Title Co. in Belleville was sentenced Thursday to 21 months in prison for defrauding insurance clients.
Karen Strasser Steinke, 65, of Millstadt, was convicted in February in federal court to one count of wire fraud and one count of structuring of financial transactions to avoid currency transaction reporting requirements.
She also was sentenced to serve three years supervised release after leaving prison.
According to court records, Steinke was a compulsive gambler and operated as a title insurance agent. She received money on behalf of others, which included escrow, settlement and closing money. She was required to hold this money in a fiduciary trust account. Court records reveal that Steinke removed money from the escrow account to have cash for gambling.
In October, an underwriter sued the title company and accused the business of failing to deliver almost $400,000 to the Columbia chapter of the American Legion after it sold land to the city. According to the lawsuit filed in federal court, Metro East Title Co. failed to pay the American Legion $385,000 of the proceeds from the sale, which closed Aug. 7 after the city paid $475,000 into an escrow account to cover the sale and fees.
That caused an underwriter to review Metro East Title Co.'s accounts, and the underwriter alleged that it discovered at least one other case of the company failing to deliver money to someone who sold a home. On July 16, the underwriter said a couple paid Metro East Title Co. $84,110 to cover the title and fees for the purchase. But when the payoff of $76,865 was sent to Wells Fargo Mortgage, the payment was refused due to insufficient funds.

ste4404647wrote a review of Five Ten Coyote VCS Climbing Shoe on April 29, 2013
Definitely stretch.
I like these shoes, but man did they open up in volume. I read reviews and got them in street shoe size. Worked awesome for a few weeks but gave up space after about 100 pitches. When wearing barefoot, my feet (of course lubricated with sweat) started slipping and sliding around. Not a very comforting feeling when about 15 feet above the last bolt! I've started wearing socks with them now, something I couldn't have done when I first got them. My last trip I even wore my thick hiking socks and they were, well, comfortable. Not necessarily a good thing in climbing shoes.
Edging, plain sucks. I had to creat an edge with a file in order to get onto any micro footing, and still, it's pretty sketchy. It could just be that my shoes are too big, but still, I just don't trust mini footholds in these.
Over all, I would highly recommend these to a beginner. The price is hard to beat, the rubber rules (5.10 C4) and they are damn comfortable... That is unless you're standing in the Arizona sun, like I frequently do. I would definitely get them a half to full size smaller. By the time you wear through these, you'll understand what kind of climbing you're into and will be able to pick a new shoe accordingly (aggressively down turned, all around, crack). If you do know what you want, read reviews and spend the extra $50 to get a shoe that works on whatever terrain you're looking at.

RSOs deliver 'The Gift of Life' this Christmas
Road safety officers will be treading the boards as they perform 'The Gift of Life' pantomime to primary schools across Leeds.
The 20-minute play aims to be fun and entertaining, but includes serious road safety messages about the importance of children staying safe when on or near the city's roads. The play features Santa, Rudolf the 'rapping' reindeer and 'Scary Mary' the Christmas fairy.
Councillor Richard Lewis, Leeds City Council executive board member with responsibility for development, said: "The pantomime is a great way for our road safety team to get a very important message across to young children about the danger on our roads.
"The pantomime reminds the young people to think about their own safety and to always be aware of the dangers that are around them."
