"I hate red shoes; they look especially ugly on you." The wizard remarked when he looked down at the slippers. Dorothy stared blankly at him.
"Excuse me? Why do you hate my shoes?" She asked the wizard, "My friends say they look good on me." The wizard ignored her and kept glaring down on the sparkling shoes. An awkward silence followed.
The tin man was the first to break the ice.
"Ah, Dorothy, I-I think th-they look exquisite on you." He stammered timidly. Toto yapped as if in agreement. Dorothy exhaled.
"Thank you, tin man." She said to him, "But I want the wizard to say they look good on me." She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at the wizard expectantly. He looked up at her.
"Excuse me?" He asked lamely.
"Tell me my shoes look nice on me." Dorothy repeated, lifting her nose upward slightly. The wizard sighed and stood up straight to look at Dorothy in the eyes. He wavered, and then huffed,
"Well, they do match your personality."

Research & Development: Creating the Slate Pro Audio RAVEN MTX
The RAVENS are landing.
When Slate Pro Audio's RAVEN MTX multitouch production console started appearing at trade shows, the WOW factor was through the roof. People saw something they had never experienced before, or even dared to seriously consider.
On exhibit: A giant touch screen display featuring a powerful multitouch mixer (the RAVEN MIXER) that can control all major DAW's, along with a flexible and user-customizable, multifunction toolbar. A full-featured analog monitoring section with multiple speaker outs and input sources, smart phone connectivity, USB, multiple headphone send and cue options, and a lot more were part of the package.
The result is a console vastly different from any other control surface out there. And now that they're becoming available, early-adopting pros are installing RAVENS into their studios and going to work with them.
As captivating as the RAVEN is, its beauty is not just skin-deep. SonicScoop found out just how intensive its story — and philosophy — is when we talked to Slate Pro Audio's VP of Creative Operations Alex Oana, the Co-Designer and Product Manager for RAVEN.
Working together with Steven Slate and the company's dedicated team, Oana experienced first-hand the inspiration, intensive problem-solving, and hard work required for this hyper-ambitious fantasy to became an audio reality. Here's the way it went down:
Starting from the 10,000-ft. view, how does Slate decide what new products – hardware and/or software – to develop?
Most of the time product development at Slate begins with Steven asking himself, "What do I need?"
In the case of the RAVEN he had been working on a monitor controller he wanted for his studio when we met. I suggested to Steven that a studio hardware product like that should be built around the DAW.  Steven kept saying, "Let's make it bigger, like a console" and I kept throwing in features like integrated USB, iPhone dock and laptop reference speakers which led to him hiring me!
We took our non-multitouch RAVEN X1, a huge confusing console that made no sense, to NAMM 2012.
Out of frustration I said to Steven, "We claim to be innovative, but this [Raven X1] isn't innovative at all. What would be innovative is if we made the Raven a giant touch screen so you can touch your DAW directly."
Three things separate Steven Slate from other developers:
1) He can't let a good idea go,
2) He won't rest until he sees an idea through, and
3) It has to be perfect.
My little multitouch idea that I had been dreaming of since I first started working with Pro Tools in the late 1990s started our journey along the "bleeding edge." After 18 months of blood sweat and tears we know first-hand what that term truly means.
From there, what made the RAVEN a priority for Slate to develop?
DAWs are amazing. As advanced and miraculous DAWs are, there's been no intuitive way to interact with them.  Before RAVEN, working with a DAW was like trying to play a guitar with a trackball.
We looked around and it just seemed like everybody who should be making multitouch hardware and software was just sleeping. We really wanted the RAVEN for ourselves because using a keyboard and mouse to create music sucks and it's not healthy. My elbow, wrist and hands were killing me!
When we debuted the prototype RAVEN at AES 2012 we knew one of two things would happen – we'd be the laughingstock or people would flip out. Luckily people flipped out.
Steven said that Slate wanted to "respect the console heritage" in creating the RAVEN. What does that mean from an ergonomic, creative and sonic standpoint?
Think of a wraparound Helios console from the 1970s. It was designed to place every control the engineer would need within easy reach. As studio tools expanded the consoles got bigger, racks of outboard sprung up behind and to the sides, making it impossible for the engineer to work in the sweet spot.
Now all those tools, minus the microphones and converters, exist inside your computer and DAW. The RAVEN makes accessing these infinite tools intuitive and direct, like it was when you could reach out and touch your console and your outboard gear.
At Slate we firmly believe in the virtues of virtual. Virtual replications of console, tape, and stereo bus compressors….  All sounding great, vastly more affordable, instantly recallable, and facilitating collaboration.
What was the initial vision for RAVEN – what did you see as the big creative/technical opportunities that would result from a multitouch production console for Pro Tools?
It seems so simple: to touch what you see. Doesn't that just make sense? That's where it started. Talented software engineers and graphic designers create gorgeous, infinitely adaptable, virtual landscapes within the pixels of the computer display. Steven and I just wanted a way to reach into that world.
The RAVEN is compatible with every major DAW and will initially ship with Pro Tools control – Logic and others soon to follow. No matter what DAW you use, you've been handicapped trying to access all its features by dragging a mouse pointer from one place on the screen to another.
Right out of the gate, RAVEN's multitouch mixer and user-customizable controls are simultaneously familiar and innovative. Yet we are at the dawn of what is possible in multitouch interaction with software. I have so many ideas I want to do – ideas that will make working with audio, and other creative fields for that matter, more intuitive and fun.
Now think again about this gorgeous virtual world I talked about. Most of those graphic user interface (GUI) design methodologies are based on physical, analog hardware ergonomics. We will make the transition to a virtual mindset – create new ways of interacting with our software, sculpting sound with our hands… Sky's the limit.
Conversely, what did you identify as the most significant challenges you would face in realizing that vision?
It's crazy that Apple OSX, made by the same people who popularized handheld multitouch hardware, is not inherently multitouch.
We are using every trick in the book – and many new ones invented by our programing team – to create a seamless multitouch experience.
Please describe the major stages of the design process – what had to happen in order for the RAVEN to move from concept to prototype to finished product?
Finding the right collaborators
Trial and error
Overwhelming public reaction
A kick ass team
Creative solutions
A market hungry for innovation
Of all those stages, which proved the most complex to complete? Why?
Oddly enough, the digitally-controlled analog circuitry and the physical console itself were by far the most difficult. Building prototypes, making revisions, building more prototypes… hardware is hard. Software just seems easier and more fun to develop.
All aspects of the RAVEN were thoroughly researched. For instance, getting the right glide for the touch glass required a lot of trial and error.
Did you have any difficulties in making RAVEN interface cleanly with Pro Tools itself?
We didn't know if any of it would work. There were dozens of conversations in which Steven and I would ask our lead programmer, "Can we ______?" His response was often, "I'm not sure. I think so.  Let me find out." Sometimes we'd hit a brick wall and figure out a work-around. Most of the time he did figure it out, sometimes easily and sometimes with a significant amount of voodoo.
We were pinching ourselves and making little cellphone videos the first time we had multitouch control running on Mac OS. It was, and still is, a world first. It was like magic. A moment of awe. We felt like pioneers.
Are all Pro Tools-compatible plugins ready to go on RAVEN? What makes a plugin optimized for this workflow?
You can touch any plugin with single touch via the RAVEN, but some plugins are easier to touch than others because of the way the GUI is designed.
Plugins are now being developed for multitouch with larger controls, knobs you can turn – the plugin itself will be able to detect whether it's running on a RAVEN and automatically kick-in the multitouch functionality.
What were some surprises along the way that you learned about human interface design, specifically, as you built the RAVEN?
We thought the correct angle for the RAVEN was going to be low, like a console. That might make sense if we were doing just faders, but because the RAVEN is also the main computer display, we realized a more present 40° angle was essential for good posture and easy viewing and reach.
We built a funny wooden table to hold one of our early touch displays at various angles. We still have it out back somewhere – dusty and rained on. It can be tilted from flat to about 45°.  All the guys at Slate sat at this mockup table and worked with various DAWs, changing the angle. The 40° angle was the winner.
Looking at the console, we were worried about the acoustics implications of this relatively steeply angled, large glass surface which encountered skepticism at the 2012 AES debut. Â Among the skeptics was renowned acoustician and studio designer Wes Lachot. Â But Wes didn't just criticize, he did his homework. Back at his design studio, Wes input the RAVEN's dimensions into his acoustic modeling software and delivered this surprising result:
"The good news about your [RAVEN] console design:  The 40° angle precludes the comb filtering effect of a typical console.  That's something you can advertise – that's a cool thing."  — Wes Lachot, November 2012
Is the RAVEN meant to replace the console, or simply complement it? What are the different scenarios that you can see it being implemented in studios, either personal or world-class commercial facilities?
There was a time when people couldn't imagine making world-class records without consoles, tape machines, or outboard gear. Now listen to what we do, 100% inside the computer.
The RAVEN is simply a more direct path into your computer.  And unlike a hardware console or controller, it's near-infinitely adaptable. Remember the first few times you dialed phone numbers on your iPhone. It took a minute to get used to. Now it's faster and just makes more sense than clunky physical buttons.
The RAVEN is designed to be at home in any studio scenario: tracking, overdubbing, editing, ADR, post production, mixing…
Who do you see as being early adopters of the RAVEN? And what type user do you think will need some convincing?
It's not surprising that very successful musical artists, engineers, and audio producers are innovative in their techniques, their creative vision, and in their hunger for new tools to help them create and/or improve their workflow.
Some of our first RAVEN customers are these types of people – household name recording artists and top industry pros. It won't be long before word gets out who has RAVENs.
I want to talk about that word "workflow" for a minute. It's so unromantic. But it's important because if you have good workflow you spend less time working and more time creating. That's a major point of the RAVEN.
The RAVEN will appeal to anyone who finds a computer display and a mouse pointer a limited means for creating their art. Like any new technology, there are leaders and there are the people who have to wait and see. The RAVEN's multitouch technology is inevitable – it's no longer a matter of "if," it's "when."
I take it you're getting plenty of feedback from people at trade shows and private demos. How are you deciding what to incorporate ASAP, versus putting on the list to do later?
The funny thing is, just being able to touch your computer directly is revolutionary. Opening that door is worth the price of admission. The fact that we also created the world's first multitouch mixer to run on Mac OSX and a flexible set of tools for interacting with your DAW is almost like icing on the cake.
Though the RAVEN multitouch software is already fairly comprehensive to the functionality of the DAW environment, we are just scratching the surface of what we can do with multitouch interaction with our audio and music creation software.
As a large-format mixing console and DAW controller the RAVEN is unlike any that have come before it because the RAVEN software can adapt and evolve along with ever-changing DAW software or whatever application you're running. That's a huge benefit to RAVEN customers.  Sure, it will keep us on our toes, but that's what Slate is all about.
Lastly, what's the Big Lesson you learned from the process of creating the RAVEN – put another way, what advice would you give to someone thinking of designing an ambitious new controller for tracking, mixing and/or editing?
Don't do it – it's too hard. Just kidding. Learn the developer's rule: There's quality, cost, and speed. Pick two.

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Ike Taylor was asked about the recent release of veteran linebacker James Harrison Tuesday on his weekly radio show, and while he said that he hasn't yet talked to his former long-time teammate since his release, he did give his overall opinion on football being a business, as only he can do. "You've got to understand; we're getting older and teams are playing younger guys," said Taylor. "So sometimes you got to put your pride away. I know I'm a prideful person, but I understand the business; I understand the game. It's going to be a point in time where somebody Read more [...]

A member of the English Department since 2005, I teach courses in writing while directing the first-year writing program for the university. My regularly scheduled courses include:
- WRT 100, Thinking and Writing
- ENG 343, Writing and Well-Being
- ENG 345, Science Writing
- ENG 348, Ethnography and Travel Writing
- ENG 355, Teaching Composition
As a writer, I work primarily in the genre of travel writing to explore issues of religion, poverty, and war. A secondary interest of mine is the emerging field of writing and well-being, which draws on research in the medical sciences, social sciences, and humanities to advance our understanding of the relationship between intrapersonal writing and the physical, psychological, and spiritual correlates of health.
My most recent work, a spiritual travelogue titled Letters from the Other Side of Silence, will be published by Homebound Publications in 2017. Currently, I am traveling in the Americas and Asia collecting stories for my next project, an edited collection tentatively titled Living the Legacy of War.
Writing aside, every March, I lead a dozen students on the Great Guatemalan Adventure, an eight-day backpacking trip in the highlands of Guatemala. I also serve on the board of the Friendship Village, an orphanage in Vietnam that serves approximately 120 children living with moderate to severe disabilities owing to Agent Orange.
For more information, please see my curriculum vitae or visit me on Facebook.

"Illegals" can't come to America.Sam, lets be honest. Illegals are not coming to America for jobs. America has made it impossible to run a company here so they all moved to Mexico. The Mexicans said oh shit chico we might have to get a job so they ran to the border and hopped the fence so they could get free stuff from America.
The term is currently used to talk about people without up-to-date government-authorized documentation that are in the country itself.
Not all illegals are from Mexico.
Millions come through airports to visit, study, or even work.
They become "illegal" when they forget or choose to not leave in the time allotted to them.
These people may come with infants/toddlers,
whom then end up growing up in the USA.
In nearly all cases, the parents are aware of their now unlawful presence in the US, but the minor may not be.
When they come of age and try to enter the workforce, military, or use other normal services, they generally come to realize that they are not properly documented.

But, he is also hands down the best coach this team has had since Mike Keenan roamed the sideline for a resounding one season.
I don't doubt his influence on this organization in certain capacities. But I do think that a lot of his flaws might be things that keep this team from reaching the promised land. At this point I think he has the ability to take us deep, I just don't know if I believe in him enough when it comes to being an in game strategic head coach to get it done. This is not Tampa Bay. There are not Lecavalier's, St. Louis', and Richards' in their prime.
This team is either going to need an upgrade in offensive talent, and as a coach he's going to need to be accepting of that and find a way to make the most out of that player rather them putting him on one of the bottom two lines and cutting their minutes, or as some point we might need a coach that actually pays attention to the other end of the ice.
It's strange. Everyone was so thrilled about the Safe Is Death mentality when he was signed, and now he's become a coach that openly admits he doesn't give players any instruction when it comes to the offensive end of the ice. It's a pretty interesting turnaround.

My Website: Eddie B PhotosMy MM URL: http://www.modelmayhem.com/eddiebphotos
Mayhem # 2893387
About MeHello all!
I am a Chicago photographer looking to build up an amazing portfolio! I have years of experience in formal studio settings as well as wedding photography. I've done over 200 weddings and hope to use that experience in other aspects of my photography. I've done a variety of events since opening my small business and am still working on building my web presence and portfolio.
I prefer to use natural backgrounds and ambient light. With that said, I have a healthy amount of knowledge and experience in Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Nik. The on site preparation of an image is the most important aspect to me! You'll often see me changing angles or climbing up on something to get a fresh perspective!
I'm looking to build a solid and diverse portfolio! This will give the right models a chance to get some great shots and practice for no cost at all! I am accepting paid work for Events, Children, Couples, Senior Portraits among others at the moment. All you need to know is hopefully covered on my website. I am a stay at home father, work at Nordstrom and have my own business, so I must book out in advance. I like to prepare any shoots with the creative details beforehand to maximize our time.
Please feel free to ask for more samples of my work, give me feedback and inquire about shoots! You can find me @Eddiebphotos on Facebook, Flickr and Instagram to name a few! Feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com anytime!

Their bright orange bodies can often be found clinging to kelp or other algae, as well as rocks, in the intertidal zones. They are called Brooding Anemones for their curious parental behavior. Their young actually remain perched on the sides of their parent until they near adulthood, at which time they slide off their parent and become independent.Download 151 KB

They can range from brown, green, white, blue and purple. These tidepool creatures are actually carnivores. They capture organisms with their stinging tentacles called nematocysts.Download 149 KB

Antalya...Turkish Riviera?
After leaving Egirdir (where travellers are few and far between), we arrived in Antalya, a large modern city on the Mediterranean. We are staying in the old town, where there are once again cobbled streets and not much traffic...but it is definitely a tourist town and a bit too upmarket for us! However, today we walked to the museum and it ...
Antalya tour
... like the outside of any old building, but once you entered you were presented with an amazing example of a 1000 year old theatre.
Our last stop on this tour was the Dunden waterfall - spectacular !
We finished the day with a evening stroll through the city, one street we stumbled upon was Umbrella street (as seen on the amazing race) ...
After the bus ride from hell, and luckily our longest stint on a bus this whole trip,we settled into Antalya and got our first non-Turkish food... Spaghetti bolognese! Wow. Food that you love tastes so much better after eating nothing but one type of food. Turkish food is good but it is basically tomato and pepper (capsicum). The only other vegetable they seem to have is cucumber. And the only meat they have is kebab. After ...
Bus to Antalya
... dehydrated. Hour 5 and we were up in the mountains, sleet turning into snow flakes, and then almost completely white. Snow was bucketing down, covering all the trees and ground, almost like a fairytale... Until the silence was broken by another crying baby. We arrived in Antalya and checked in, seeing massive snow capped mountains rising from the beach. We had a craving for non-Turkish food and there was an Italian restaurant next door. ...
We stayed last night outside Antalya near to the airport. It's a district of big monstrosities of hotels each trying to outdo the other in gaudyness. The picture is the view from our hotel room of the next hotel along. It's design is that of the Chrysler building in New York, which has a beautiful elegant tower, but they couldn't just copy it. This hotel has four of ...

I have had two prior benign biopsies from my left breast. I found another lump in my left breast about six months ago. It is pea-sized and hard in the 10 o'clock position. I had it checked a couple weeks ago by my doctor who also felt it. He sent me for a mammogram and ultrasound, but because my breasts are very dense, nothing was seen. My doctor still wants me to see a surgeon to evaluate this since it has been there for six months. How common is it for a lump to not show on mammogram and ultrasound? Since it is palpable but not showing up, should it still be biopsied? Are the chances greater that it is probably benign since it did not show up on the mammogram and ultrasound? Does the fact that I have had two prior biopsies increase the risk of malignancy later? Thanks.
Mammography is an excellent screening tool and after so many years, it is still the gold standard in breast health. However, no test is perfect.
Unfortunately, it is not uncommon that lumps and possibly some cancers are not seen on mammogram. This is especially true in women with dense breasts. In many centers, it has now become standard to use MRI scans as an additional screening tool for such women.
A visit with the surgeon is probably reasonable, but MRI might add more clarification to the issue before a surgical procedure is attempted. If the lesion is seen on MRI, a MRI-guided biopsy is also a diagnostic possibility you might want to consider.

LSU Senior
40: 4.65e
Rangy guy with good speed to make plays sideline to sideline. Does his best work in pursuit and does a good job flowing downhill to the ball. Has good closing burst and can make plays on the backside pursuit. Shows pretty good instincts and is able to sniff out screens and does a good job with his reads. Willing to take on blockers and fill at the point of attack. Will break down and wrap up at the point of attack. Is able to shoot gaps and shows decent straight-line burst as a blitzer. Gets good depth on his zone drops and looks comfortable playing in space. Shows decent awareness to read the quarterback. Shows enough upside in coverage with decent hips and can keep things in front of him in the flat against the back.
Undersized and needs to add some strength. Doesn't really deliver a hit and is more of a drag-down tackler. Can be overpowered at the point against physical runners and lose battle with the fullback in the hole. Struggles at times at the point of attack, getting caught in the trash. Has difficulty to avoiding and defeating blocks on the second level. Misses some stops in the open field and space. Can get caught out of position vs. the inside run. Also gets caught out of position in coverage and doesn't show great speed to match up there. Lacks ideal burst out of his breaks and needs to improve his awareness get sucked up by play fakes.
Sheppard has bulked up to 250 pounds, but his play is more in line with what you'd expect from a 235 pound linebacker. But he was productive at LSU and filled well as one of the leaders of their defense the past two years. He has the potential and versatility to play all 3 positions in a 4-3, although he probably fits best as a WILL linebacker at the next level. Combined for 226 tackles, 19.5 for loss, 5 sacks, 2 picks, 4 pass breakups, 3 forced fumbles, and 2 recoveries. He played both middle and weakside linebacker for LSU. He is a native of Stone Mountain, GA.
Sheppard should turn into a productive starter at the next level because of his speed, range and versatility. He probably fits on the weakside because of how limited he is at times at the point of attack. He's better playing in space. He shows the speed, range, and instincts that teams want as a MIKE in the middle, but because he's not great defending against the inside run that's probably not a position he will excel in. If he has good defensive tackles in front of him that can keep blockers off him, then he should be fine there. Sheppard has potential to be a good starting linebacker at the next level that I would compare to Mike Peterson, except I don't think he's as physical. But he should be a solid complementary starter and if he plays beside another solid playmaking linebacker, he should be a solid starter. I think he can also play on the strongside, because he matches up better against tight ends than speed backs and receivers. But he's probably not great there because he isn't great getting off blocks at the point of attack. But again, if a team is in a pinch, he can play there. He could also play in a 3-4 on the inside, but again he's not as good at the point of attack as you want. The main thing with Sheppard is that you maximize the times he can play in space, then he'll maximize his potential.
Sheppard could fit in Atlanta at all three positions, but he'd likely play on the outside. He's faster and rangier than Nicholas, so he should be an upgrade in coverage. Although he's not exactly consistent there to really trust him in nickel situations on a consistent basis. He would improve the Falcons linebacking corps, but he wouldn't be a big-time playmaker but would at least be a good starter that can perform his role well. He can come in right away and be a decent starter if the team didn't keep Nicholas. But if the team does keep Nicholas, he can come in and be a nice backup at all three spots for his first year or two.
Sheppard's starting potential and versatility gives him nice third or fourth round value for a 4-3 team.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite
Speed: 3.5
Tackling: 3.0
Coverage: 3.0
Point of Attack: 2.5
Instincts: 3.5
Pass Rush: 2.0

Thorns and Roses: 10.19.07
Cancer screening saves lives
Garlands of ROSES to the American Cancer Society and its thousands of supporters, including oncologists and others in the health profession whose long-waged battle to persuade Americans to undergo screening for colorectal cancer is paying off. The drop in colorectal cancer was one of the prime reasons that cancer death rates have dropped by 2.1 percent between 2002 and 2004, a full percentage point increase over previous decreases.
The screening tests, along with the growth in new treatments for all cancers, were given for the good news in the battle against cancer. Some of the credit for the reported decrease in cancer deaths among men, which is going down at the rate of about 2 percent per year, should go to American men themselves as more wisely stop smoking. The development of more cancer drugs, continuing preventive care and wiser lifestyle changes should bring more decreases in cancer deaths in the years to come.
Turn over the tapes
THORNS to the Department of Public Safety which has spent more than $165,000 in legal fees to keep from turning over videotapes from Capitol security cameras, though the state's attorney general and a state judge have ruled that the tapes are public information.
The tapes were requested by The Texas Observer, a biweekly news magazine, under the Texas open records laws. The videotape footage comes from May 2005 when the Texas Legislature debated school voucher legislation. The magazine wants to know whether voucher supporter Dr. James Leininger was buttonholing legislators in the hallways of the Capitol. The DPS should turn over what has been deemed to be public information.
