23 year old man | Newbury Park, CA, USA | Seeking women 18-26 in California, United States
Waiting for My Mrs.Right
I have lived in California for little over two years now, and can't leave it. I grew up in a small town called Fredericksburg, VA. I grew up hunting and going to shooting ranges, and shoot and skiet. I moved out here because my family is originally from here, so we decided to move back. I work in Camarillo and go to school. I live with my mom at the moment with two German shepards, but this summer I plan on moving out and possibly going to USCC to get into UCSB for the spring, will see how it plays out. I'm into surfing, hiking, mtn. biking, rockclimbing, running, the gym ( workout addict), I go to the gym about three to four times a week. I have a pretty busy lifetsyle with a lot of downtime too. Sundays I go to a Christian church because I have a strong christian friend who goes their, as well as a Mormon church, because I have a lot of Mormon friends too. The irony is, I'm Catholic, what can I say I'm open to Jesus Christ. One thing about me is I absolutley love sushi. I'm a pretty "connected" guy if that what we call it out here in La. For instance, I don't go to the movies that much anymore, but still wouldn't mind going at all. I'm a SAG memeber and get films in theaters out mailed to me so I can watch it at the house. At work, a magician gave me tickets to go to the Magic Castle in Hollywood, I think that would be a great date right their. I'm looking for someone I can really connect with, honestly I don't know what kind of girl I see myself being with, but would like to find that out. I'm ready to be in a relationship. I feel like I connect better with women who are older than me, like 24-26 possibly. I'm not saying that's what I'm looking for, but their mature for me more I guess. I need to be with someone mature and not a teenage flake. I'm pasted that, and ready to move forward and always enjoy meeting new people.

How to String with Beading Cable
By: Rings & Things
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
These great tips from Rings & Things will help you use beading wire when making your own jewelry. In no time, you'll be making lovely earrings, necklaces and bracelets for yourself or gifts.
- Cut wire cable 4" longer than desired necklace or bracelet length. String a crimp bead onto one end of the cable and loop back through crimp bead. Try to tuck excess cable inside your end beads, otherwise trim neatly with flush cutters. Flatten crimp bead with standard round- or- flatnose pliers. Use jump ring to attach one end of your clasp to cable.
TIP: When opening and closing jump rings, twist sideways instead of "ovalling" them. This keeps their shape better, which makes them easier to close all the way. (As shown on the left.) To prevent marks on the ring use non-serrated flat-nose pliers.
- String desired pattern.
- Add final crimp bead; loop cable back through your crimp like in step 1. Tuck excess cable inside end beads, otherwise trim neatly with flush cutters. Flatten crimp bead and attach other end of the clasp with a jump ring.
- Some designs may require stringing the beads before finishing the cable ends. We recommend using Bead Stoppers™ (#69-144-06 and -16) to secure unfinished ends. When you have finished follow steps 1 and 3.
- Crimping pliers: To make a nice rounded crimp bead, use the innermost section (1) of the pliers to crimp. Face crimp outward (as shown in example below) and use the outer section (2) of the pliers to round the bead.
- Crimp covers: Cover flattened crimps with a crimp cover. Make sure there is enough space around your crimp bead. Use section 2 (see picture above) of the crimping pliers to gently secure the cover over the bead.
- Bullion: Cut two pieces in precise equal lengths (approx. ½-¾"), add one crimp tube and one piece of bullion to the end of wire cable. Loop the cable through one portion of clasp and back through the crimp tube. Pull gently until the bullion is flush against the crimp and crimp closed.
- Wire protectors: Guard wire cable from excessive wear with wire protectors. These are used the same way as bullion.

Swype, Jobs, Clearwire: the One-Minute Week in Seattle Tech Headlines
Curt Woodward10/11/11
Follow @xconomy
—Swype, one of the most talked-about startups in the Seattle area, made good on all the attention it's earned by selling to mobile-software leader Nuance (NASDAQ: NUAN) for $102.5 million. Nuance has been gobbling up lots of technology and talent in the past few years, including Tegic Communications, the former home of Swype's Cliff Kushler.
—The death of Apple co-founder and chairman Steve Jobs was felt far and wide in the tech industry, including here in Seattle. Among the immediate reactions and remembrances from our Xconomist network were pieces from Ed Lazowska and Jeremy Jaech—the latter of which was penned on vacation in Europe, on an iPad of course.
—We also took a more critical look at Jobs' legacy, pointing out some of the less-than-glowing aspects of the legendary leader's record. It helps put Jobs in perspective as a person—just as complicated, prickly, and enigmatic as he was visionary and talented.
—Sprint (NYSE S) rolled out its plans for a future fourth-generation network, and Clearwire (NASDAQ: CLWR) was conspicuously absent—a development that sent the Kirkland, WA-based broadband provider's stock plummeting. It's increasingly clear that Sprint wants Clearwire to make its own way, and even though it owns a majority stake in the company, the carrier doesn't seem ready to take a leading role in financing Clearwire's changeover to newer long-term evolution technology.
—Intellectual Ventures continued its relatively new strategy of heading to court to assert its patent portfolio, hauling Motorola Mobility in front of a federal judge in an infringement lawsuit. That's despite the fact that Motorola is in the process of being acquired by Google, which is an investor/licensee through one of Intellectual Ventures' subsidiary funds.
—Varolii detailed a new partnership with Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) that brought the budget carrier's last-minute scheduling system into the 21st century: Rather than phone trees or website logins, pilots can now be notified of open flights and even book the extra work via text messages. That's a bit more complicated than it sounds, since Varolii had to make sure it was properly navigating the sensitive territory of union seniority rights.
—Seattle social media firm Spring Creek Group was acquired by media and PR behemoth Interpublic Group. Spring Creek is relatively small, with an estimated $4.3 million in revenues in 2010, but the company made the Inc. 500 this year.
—We cross-posted this piece from Eric Koester of Zaarly, who sketched out what he thinks are the similarities between hackers and lawyers (Koester's an attorney by training). Of course, some coders took exception with the comparison.
—Kabir Shahani of Appature will be representing Seattle at 6X6, a event that highlights Xconomy's national network of innovation coverage by bringing together sharp people from each of the cities we cover.
—Finally, yours truly was asked (for some reason) by the good folks at the Washington Technology Industry Association to lay out some thoughts and observations on the local tech industry as part of the group's video series leading up to today's TechNW event at the waterfront. Please ignore the weird pose on the screen grab, which is sadly indicative of all the times my eyes look a little crazy as I tried to think of what to say. And be sure to check out all the other great video interviews they put together.

SAN ANTONIO — The NCUA and other regulators are over regulating to prevent another financial crisis, and CUNA is trying to push back to give credit unions more autonomy. That was the message of CUNA's top executives during a panel discussion at America's Credit Union Conference.
Regulators are overregulating, according to top CUNA executives at its annual conference, who say they're trying to strike a balance.
At press time, the House Financial Services Committee was close to passing a bill extending the National Flood Insurance Program for five years and three bills to make changes to the structure of the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection.
Everybody in Congress and in the Obama administration say they are for consumer protection. However, in the debate over the new consumer bureau, it depends on what the meaning of "consumer protection" is.
CUNA PAC contributed $7,000 to 2006 campaign of Nevada senator now stepping down in wake of affair revelations.
Credit unions are on alert about the fate of their tax-exempt status as a result of President Obama's speech outlining his deficit reduction strategy.
It's back. Just when you thought you had survived another round of political slings and arrows, better known as an election season, another one beckons.
With another deadline looming, Congress takes up funding measure today.
In a speech Wednesday, credit unions' tax-exempt status were among the "tax expenditures" the president called for review.
State league lobbying is undergoing more revamps this spring with advocacy schedules getting altered at two more leagues–Texas and California–to advance a more focused industry message to lawmakers.


text: Michigan State offensive lineman Arthur Ray Jr. expects to return to the field for a second season after having survived cancer. "This is the best I've felt in the past four or five years," Ray told MLB.com Tuesday on a day when he was honored by the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. "I went through the process of trying to deal with everything as far as the cancer and the chemo and the recovery. ... I'm finally to the point where that's all behind me. I'm ready to play. I'm ready to do what I came to Michigan State to do."

Check on the website for Phalleria Macrocarpa. In here (it's called mahkota dewa = god's crown), it's widely known to cure cancer.
There is no cure for cancer except acceptance. Not informing people of this does mean indeed that the money-laden research and lucrative drug sales will go on. It's no coincidence that the older we get, the more likely we'll develop cancer; as healthy cells lessen, the cancer cells we all have take over

Any version 2 GIMP. This is most likely not correct for the majority of plug-ins and scripts, please use more specific version tags.
This plugin set contain 4 plugins helpful in 360° equirectangular panorama
This script places a subtle reduction in brightness at the periphery of an image using a radial gradient. The method is non-destructive and customizable in that it creates a new layer that can be deleted or modified to suit personal preference. The intent is to save a few button clicks on a frequently repeated processing task.
Produces an interlaced (interleave) picture for viewing on polarized-mask 3D monitors. Supports horizontal and vertical interlacing, depth correction offset, field order, anaglyph and side-by-side (cross-eyed) source conversion. The "Depth correction offset" feature (sometimes called "parallax") makes the picture look deep beyond the screen surface.
The purpose of this script is to convert animation strips or sheets back into collections of layers. These can be saved as an animated GIF image or used for any other purpose.
Carefully and effectively cleans out impulse noise of any kind from the dark areas of the image. I had a problem finding a good plug-in which would be able to clean out these huge and ugly hot dots that my "carry-me-everywhere" Nikon S6300 camera produces on very high ISO's. I've found nothing reasonably good, so I decided to write it myself.
Original image
Impulse noise eliminated
Template for creating/printing CD/DVD disc jewel case cover labels, it uses a standard US letter size (8.5 x 11 inch) at 600x600 DPI and works with any disc jewel case cover sheet containing the front and back aligned vertically side by side.
To install, just download the xcf image, but it is named as a .jpg since this GIMP web site does not allow GIMP's own format for some bizarre reason.
Change the extension back to .xcf and open it in GIMP.
Create a new layer below the template layer and start adding in your "content".
Template for creating/printing CD/DVD disc labels, it uses a standard US letter size (8.5 x 11 inch) at 600x600 DPI and works with most disc label sheets. It is modelled after the Fellows/NEATO disc label template US complete (the one that has 2 disc labels with core labels, multi purpose labels, and spline labels).
Create new guides at the center of the image
There were a few anaglyph 3D images that I wanted to view as cross-eyed stereo pairs (I don't have glasses handy). I started doing the manipulations by hand to convert them from anaglyphs, then got tired of doing it manually.
So, I wrote a quick script-fu to do it for me. This will take a 3D Anaglyph image (red/cyan), and create a stereo pair (monochrome) for you...
Just load up an image, and run:
Filters > Generic > Anaglyph to Stereo...
This script-fu creates water ripples.

by Joie Power, PhD, Guest Editor of Aromatherapy on Allthingshealing.com
Aromas effect mood and evoke memories. If the smell of baking cookies, a smoky campfire, or a lover's favorite perfume have ever transported you back in time, calling up long-forgotten events and feelings, then you have experienced the powerful association between aromas, emotions, and memories.
Long before modern scientists began the study of the physiological processes that underlie this association, human beings were exploring and utilizing the power of fragrant substances in their daily lives. Many ancient cultures, including those of India, China, and Persia have left records that document their use of fragrance for its effect on mental states and feelings. The Egyptians, in particular, made extensive use of incense and fragrant oils in their religious rituals.
Kyphi, an incense containing at least 16 herbs and other fragrant plants such as Juniper, Cinnamon, and Myrrh, was used by Egyptian priests to facilitate the attainment of ecstatic states during religious rites. Virtually every culture has reported aphrodisiacal properties for various fragrances. In the harems, Sandalwood and Rose were prized for enhancing sexual desire and the essential oils of Vetiver, Patchouli, Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Ginger, and Clary Sage have all been used for this purpose. Many ancient peoples, such as the Romans, became very skilled at utilizing certain fragrant plants for evoking specific mental states. Aromatherapy lore reports highly selective effects for specific essential oils; for example, Frankincense and Cypress have been said to aid in dispelling grief, while Ylang Ylang and Juniper are claimed to aid in coping with guilt.
Today, we continue to be aware of the impact of aromas on moods and other aspects of our states of mind, such as alertness, sexual drive, and aggressiveness. Retailers have even attempted to "cash in" on our innate responsiveness to scents by impregnating the air in their stores with fragrances which they believe will stimulate shoppers to make purchases. Their efforts often go awry, however, because those attempting to utilize aromas in this way frequently fail to distinguish between the beneficial effects of natural plant aromas and the deleterious effects of synthetic fragrances, which cause headaches and other unpleasant symptoms in many people.
Modern research supports our intuitive recognition of the impact of aromas on mood and other mental states. Different essential oils have been shown to produce consistently different brain wave patterns on EEG, even when experimental subjects have reported little perceived difference between the odors and have not noticed changes in mood or alertness. Findings such as these suggest that aromas can have subliminal, or unconscious, effects on our mental states and it is precisely this subliminal effect that aromatherapists hope to capitalize upon when they suggest diffusing specific essential oils into environments where people are likely to feel anxious or agitated. In her book, The Fragrant Mind, Valerie Ann Worwood, a well known aromatherapist, suggests diffusing essential oils such as Lavender in prisons and holding cells to help keep inmates calm and less aggressive. She suggests that in addition to having specific relaxing and calming effects, some essential oils may help to bring out the more positive aspects of peoples' personalities and attitudes.
Aromas may also be utilized in a conscious, intentional way to effect mood and mental states. Citrus oils, for example, are described by aromatherapists as being uplifting, gently stimulating, and conducive to alertness and concentration, while the essential oils of Lavender, Clary Sage, and Roman Chamomile are described as relaxing and soothing. With this knowledge, you might choose to diffuse a small amount ( 3 or 4 drops) of Grapefruit oil in your work space in order to support your efforts on an important project, or, you might similarly use essential oil of Clary Sage when you want to relax and feel comforted after a stressful event.

iLife '11 Coming In August With New Features And Mystery Application?
MacRumors have picked up on some claims this morning by Mac4Ever that give details on Apple's next update to the iLife suite.
It's rumored that the update will happen on August 7th, 2010, and will introduce a whole host of new features including a new "mystery" application:
- iLife '11 will be sold for $79
– Release Date of 08/07/2010
– All applications will be 64-bit
– Improvements in iPhoto faces & places
– Improving the integration of social networks
– iWeb will be totally renewed
– New application (mystery!)
– Disappearance of iDVD
– MobileMe gallery in beta (with faces & places)
Several rumors have circulated recently regarding an update to iLife, some of which claim the new update will be labelled iLife '10. However, as MacRumors points out, the iLife '11 name would be more consistent with Apple's previous behavior; iLife '08 was introduced in August, 2007.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Innovation
In March, we wrote about Playstation 3 owners who were up in arms after Sony announced that a new firmware "upgrade" would actually disable a feature that enables users to run GNU/LINUX and other operating systems on their PS3 consoles. In response, a class action lawsuit has now been filed against Sony on behalf of PS3 owners who purchased their consoles after November 16, 2006 and before March 27. The complaint alleges breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unfair and deceptive business practices.
Consumers International has released an excellent short film, When Copyright Goes Bad, which chronicles the rise of copyright as a global consumer rights issue and the ongoing fight for fairer copyright laws. The film features interviews with EFF Senior Staff Attorney Fred von Lohmann, Professor Michael Geist from the University of Ottowa Law School, Sunil Abraham from the Centre for Internet and Society, Hank Schocklee, co-founder of Public Enemy, and more.
If the messages in EFF's inbox today are anything to go by, a lot of people are upset and angry — with good reason — over Sony's announcement that it is going to disable a feature that allows people to run GNU/Linux and other operating systems on their PlayStation 3 consoles.
Today, after three years of litigation, the Viacom v. YouTube combatants finally publicly released their briefs (Viacom's; YouTube's; Class Action Plaintiffs') in what most expect to be the main event in the case, namely, cross-motions for summary judgment (for the non-lawyers: a summary judgment motion asks the court to rule that the case is such a slam dunk in your favor that no trial is necessary).
TechDirt's Mike Masnick is at the Midem music industry conference in Cannes this week. He put together a fantastic memo to the International Association of Entertainment Lawyers: "The Future Of Music Business Models (And Those Who Are Already There)".
Masnick writes that the mainstream entertainment industry's formula for contending with the Internet — desperately trying to invent "new copyright laws or new licensing schemes or new DRM or new lawsuits or new ways to shut down file sharing" — is counterproductive.
However, there is another solution. Stop worrying and learn to embrace the business models that are already helping musicians make plenty of money and use file sharing to their advantage, even in the absence of licensing or copyright enforcement.
In simplest terms, the model can be defined as:
