In Photoshop CS6 for Photographers, author, photographer, and teacher Chris Orwig explores Photoshop from the perspective of the photographer.
The course details the features and techniques behind enhancing and retouching photos, preparing them for print and online publishing, and much more. Chris demonstrates how to make basic edits in Camera Raw, develop and save color profiles, work with layers and selections, tone and sharpen, and retouch images while retaining their natural character.
Chris also shares some creative tips and project ideas, such as converting a photo to black-and-white and enhancing a portrait with hand-painted masks. The course also covers workflow details, such as organizing images in Bridge and Mini Bridge, optimizing Photoshop preferences, and calibrating your monitor.
Here we're going to take a look at how we can export and render our projects, so that we can share what we've done with others. There are couple of ways that you can access the menu which allows you to export. One technique that you can use as you can click on this little arrow icon to open up this dialog or you can also go to the file pulldown menu and here you can choose Export and then Render Video. Both of these techniques access the same menu, and this menu allows you to export this file. I'll go ahead and name this one out as Annika and then dash surfing.
We'll save this in the same folder, and then down here, we have a few presets which are really helpful. We can use a preset of high quality or we can change this. Let's say that what we want to do is we want to view this on our iPhone or maybe an iPad. Here we could select that preset, and then by doing that, you'll notice that it'll change a few of these settings, so that this will work well on a device like that. Next in regards to our size, we can also customize this as well, so that we can view this on different devices.
After having done that, it's really quite easy, all that you need to do is to click Render. Now the one thing to think about is that when you're working with video files, this rendering is going to take some time, because what it's doing is it's taking these video files which are actually pretty big and now it's making them smaller. It's building all that we've done inside of this document and really compressing and optimizing it into another file format. And because that's going to take time, you want to think about how you integrate this into your workflow.
In other words, you'll want our render when you don't need to work on Photoshop, so that that isn't really distracting you or taking up your time, because here you can see as I click around Photoshop is locked down, exporting, and rendering this project. So, what I typically like to do is to render these near the end of the day, so that this can happen in the background, so that you're not just sitting there waiting for that file to render or export. And after you finish the exporting process, what you can then do is take that file and copy it to a device or you can upload it online for others to enjoy.
And that note, that wraps up our conversation about how we can work with video in Photoshop.

Nothing Stops Football
Most people will come to the beaches to take the sun, but particularly the beaches on the south end of the city are more frequented by surfers and footballers.
As I went up and down the coast road over the couple days, I saw that the beach was wide with the low tide, narrow with the high tide, sweltering in the noon sun and dark in the fading twilight. But the one constant was that the football games continued. They would play on the sloped beach, with half the field being engulfed by the waves and the sun falling fast. But yet the game would continue.
Happy and simple people!!
Situated in the state of Alagoas, some 20 kilometres from the border with Pernambuco, Maragogi is a fishermen's village that has become a sought-after tourist destination but mantains its original grid of narrow streets, some of them cobbled but many unpaved. Distinctive features of the town are tall palm trees, small lodges and a tiny, animated fish market.

This article by Roel Nieuwenkamp talks about the trend of hardening of soft law in the domain of responsible business conduct. It argues that legislative proposals related to existing international instruments should not seek to reinvent the wheel, but to reinforce it. Existing instruments that are widely recognised and proven to be effective and reasonable should represent a foundation for their legally-binding counterparts.
Today the discourse on "conflict minerals" has changed. It's not just about conflict-free, it's about promoting responsible sourcing of minerals from conflict areas, despite the challenges. This blog discusses the urgent need to create responsible supply chains of artisanal gold, and support the livelihoods of miners in the informal gold industry, and how OECD guidance can help companies do this.
The Guidance provides recommendations for responsible mineral supply chains to help companies to respect human rights and avoid contributing to conflict through their mineral or metal purchasing decisions and practices.
In 2014, many countries implemented the latest international guidelines for compiling FDI statistics. The new standards have resulted in significant changes in FDI statistics, including new measures of FDI at the global level.
This edition provides operational guidelines on how foreign direct investment (FDI) activity should be measured and sets the world standard for direct collecting investment statistics.
The FDI Regulatory Restrictiveness Index (FDI Index) measures statutory restrictions on foreign direct investment in 58 countries, including all OECD and G20 countries, and covers 22 sectors.
This public consultation was held to gather comments on the draft FAO-OECD guidance for responsible agricultural supply chains which is designed to help enterprises observe standards of responsible business conduct along their agricultural supply chains. The deadline for comment was 20 February 2015.
The German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR), supported by the OECD, has initiated a study to assess the contribution of small and medium-scale enterprises (SMEs) to due diligence for responsible mineral supply chains. To gather information for this study, SMEs were invited to take part on a confidential survey of due diligence activities by SMEs.
The working paper series on international investment – including policies and trends and the broader implications of multinational enterprise – makes available selected studies by the OECD Investment Committee, OECD Investment Division staff, or by outside consultants working on OECD Investment Committee projects.
This multi-stakeholder forum provides the opportunity to review and discuss implementation of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and the ICGLR Regional Certification Mechanism. Issues pertinent to the tin, tantalum and tungsten (3Ts) and gold supply chains.

How can we raise a bilingual child?
My husband and I are fluent in English and Spanish. We'd like our son to learn both languages, so I speak to him only in Spanish while my husband switches between the two tongues. Have other parents found this a good method or should we try something else?

Adios: You are full of it!!! I think it is only fair to say that in America english is not the only language spoken. This country is full of different people from different cultures and backgrounds. To say that no one else speaks their language NOT TRUE. I know plenty of people who speak spanish as well as other languages. It does not offend me when I hear others speak their language. Why would it? It is their language and I am not insecure. If they were saying something about me why would I care? I cant understand them!!! lol! On a nicer note I am proud to say that I am a spanish speaking american. I was born here in America and my parents were born in Puerto Rico of course spanish is the first language there. English has become a secondary language in PR almost all the younger people know it. They find it to be a necessity since more and more americans are moving to PR. These are just my 2 cents. I just cant believe that people are still so narrowminded about other cultures and languages being in America.posted 04/29/2006 by Vivian1982

I am bilingual myself and feel it is important to teach my child spanish. My 6-month old gets spoken to in Spanish at home by me. My husband and I do talk english around each other. I also have taught at a Spanish immersion school where kids learn how to speak Spanish. They are taught all of their core subjects in Spanish. No Spanish is spoken at home. It is amazing how well they adapt and absorb. Keep speaking to your child and he/she will learn. They are like sponges as someone said earlier.posted 04/28/2006 by firstmel
I am writing this on a slightly different scale. My partner and I are both english speakers but my partner is of spanish origin. His father is from spain and speaks spanish. My partner however cannot speak the language although he understands alot of it. We both want our children to speak the language as it is part of their identity. How can we teach them to speak another language?posted 04/27/2006 by robhia

Two of the Pac-12's brightest young QBs to meet
EUGENE, Ore. If Cal quarterback Jared Goff has any jitters about his first start on the road, he sure isn't showing it.
Goff was cool about playing No. 2 Oregon in what is sure to be a raucous atmosphere at Autzen Stadium on Saturday night.
"Just a regular game in front of a bunch of crazy people," he said.
The freshman quarterback is having a sensational start to his college career, steering first-year Cal coach Sonny Dykes' "Bear Raid" offense. He leads the nation and the Pac-12 with an average of 435.3 yards passing.
He's second in the Pac-12 with 1,306 total yards passing and he's completed 61.3 percent of his passes in three games. In his last game, a 52-34 Cal loss to No. 4 Ohio State on Sept. 14, Goff passed for 371 yards with three touchdowns.
Those numbers both impress and concern Oregon coach Mark Helfrich.
"He's playing great. He's been virtually lights out," Helfrich said. "They've done a really good job managing things for him."
Goff became the first freshman to start his first game in school history after beating out redshirt freshman Zach Kline and junior Austin Hinder in fall camp. The last true freshman to start a game for Cal was Kyle Boller, who came off the bench in his first game in 1999 before getting his first start a week later.
A top recruit for California, Goff threw for 7,687 yards and 93 touchdowns at Marin Catholic High School. He helped his bid for a starting role by graduating early and taking part in Dykes' first practice as head coach last spring.
Goff may be young, but at least on the field he has carried himself with the confidence of a more experienced player. Dykes said it remains to be seen how he'll respond on the road for the first time.
"What he does is a great job of not worrying about anything but just going out there and playing football," Dykes said. "I would expect him to handle it well, but you never know until a player gets in that situation."
Ducks quarterback Marcus Mariota, only a sophomore himself, is a seasoned veteran compared to Goff.
Known for his scrambling ability, Mariota is ranked fifth nationally with an average of 383.7 total offensive yards per game. He's averaging 296.30 yards passing a game in an offense that's scoring 61.3 points per game.
Mariota has thrown for 1,151 total yards and 11 touchdowns in three games this season. He hasn't thrown an interception.
In his last game, a 59-14 victory over Tennessee, Mariota passed for a career-high 456 yards and four touchdowns. He was the first Oregon quarterback to throw for more than 400 yards in a game since Kellen Clemens in 2005.
By showing his versatility this season with the pass as well as the rush, Mariota has been getting ever-increasing Heisman Trophy buzz. But he calls such talk "outside noise."
"For me, that's individual accolades," he said. "That's something that around here, we don't really talk about."

High blood pressure can be caused by a number of different things – aging, poor diet, dehydration, stress, and so on. Getting your blood pressure under control sometimes requires prescription medication. While ingesting chemicals is one way to lower blood pressure, there are a number of natural, non-prescription substances, that can accomplish the same. Vitamins, minerals, and plant extracts can help you get your blood pressure under control – or at least keep it out of the danger zone. Combining these substances will not only help you manage your blood pressure, but also promote overall health.
Potassium is the big one. It has shown the strongest links to reduced blood pressure, out of tested supplements. Not only will this help you control hypertension, but you'll have more energy, better flexibility, and fewer muscle cramps. While you may get some potassium from your diet, the benefits suggest it wouldn't hurt to be sure you're topped up on it each and every day. If you have a physically demanding job, are an athlete, smoke, use alcohol, or have any number of digestive disorders, you may not be getting enough potassium even if you're eating a healthy diet. Smoking and alcohol use are also known to contribute to increased blood pressure – at the very least, a potassium supplement might help you offset some of that negativity.
Not as strongly linked to blood pressure as potassium, calcium can help your body build and maintain strong bones, teeth, help you to manage your weight. Despite its unknown status as a blood pressure aid, calcium is essential for overall good health, as healthy diets, high in calcium, and healthy body weight help keep blood pressure at a nominal level. Many blood pressure supplements include calcium and potassium as a way to cover as many areas as possible. Like potassium, a healthy diet should give you as much calcium as you need. Unfortunately, not everyone has the time to eat healthy. Taking a calcium supplement is a simple and effective way to be certain your body is getting as much as it needs, day in and day out.
Magnesium is another miracle mineral when it comes to the inner workings of your body. Not only will this help you manage high blood pressure, magnesium also contributes to strong bone structure and has been known to relieve back pain. Further, those who get adequate amounts of magnesium have healthier, stronger hearts. Outside the cardiovascular system, magnesium has been used to to lessen day to way irritations – headaches, bad moods, and so forth. It's also used in the chemical interactions of carbohydrates and insulin.
A combination of these three supplements – generally available in single-pill blood pressure pills – will help you manage blood pressure and maintain your overall health. Rather than taking a prescription medication that may have nasty side effects, why not try something natural, that works with your body instead of against it? If you have any questions about supplements, how they work, or want help finding the supplement that's right for you, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Pope: Bishops will be accountable for sex abuseBy FRANCES DEMILIO
The Associated Press | July 08,2014VATICAN CITY Pope Francis promised to hold bishops accountable for the protection of minors and begged forgiveness Monday from the victims of clergy sex abuse as he held his first meeting with several abuse survivors.
The pope celebrated a Mass with six survivors at his Vatican hotel Monday, but in his homily he didnt spell out whether that accountability would include firing bishops and other prelates who systematically shuffled pedophile priests from parish to parish to avoid bringing shame upon the Catholic Church.
Victims advocacy groups around the world have pressed the Vatican for decades to severely discipline any complicit church hierarchy.
One of the six, Irishwoman Marie Kane, 43, said she asked Francis to remove an Irish cardinal, Sean Brady, from his post because of how he handled abuse allegations.
Kane told The Irish Times that she told Francis A cover-up is still happening and you have the power to make these changes. She said that he replied It was difficult to make these changes.
Francis himself has been criticized by survivor advocates for how he handled abuse cases when he was archbishop of Buenos Aires, specifically for not meeting with victims and denying that he had handled the case of an abusive priest, said Anne Barrett Doyle, a director of the advocacy group BishopAccountability.org.
Even while the pope spent his morning with the three men and three women, listening to their stories one by one, several victims groups blasted the meetings as being a PR event.
The Vatican quoted Francis as expressing personal `sorrow in his homily at the private Mass with the victims for the sins and grave crimes of clerical sex abuse against them.
Francis pledged not to tolerate harm done to a minor by any individual, whether a cleric or not.
All bishops must carry out their pastoral ministry with utmost care in order to help foster the protection of minors, and they will be held accountable, Francis said, according to the English translation of his homily, which was delivered in Spanish.
Many victims, especially in the United States, were outraged when Boston Archbishop Bernard Law, blamed for the cover-ups of abusive priests during his tenure, was given a prestigious post at a Rome basilica instead of being demoted.
I beg your forgiveness, too, for the sins of omission on the part of Church leaders who did not respond adequately to reports of abuse made by family members, as well as by abuse victims themselves, the pope said Monday. This led to even greater suffering on the part of those who were abused and it endangered other minors who were at risk.
Before God and his people, I express my sorrow for the sins and grave crimes of clerical sexual abuse committed against you. And I humbly ask forgiveness, Francis said.
Without naming specific cases, Francis noted that the abuse caused some victims to resort to addictions or even suicide.
These deaths of these so beloved children of God weigh upon the heart and my conscience and that of the whole church, he said.
Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said two Irish, two British and two Germans who had been sexually abused as youths by clergy met privately for about a half-hour each with Francis at his Vatican residence.
Some abuse survivors not at the meeting said the encounter would likely do nothing about their complaints the Vatican has failed to punish bishops and other prelates who systemically covered up the abuse of minors. A German survivor advocacy spokesman, Norbert Denef, called Mondays meeting nothing more than a PR event.
Prior to the meetings Monday, Francis has likely already met one Irish cleric sex abuse survivor, Marie Collins, who is on a panel set up by Francis to help him deal with the scandals staining the churchs reputation.
Francis predecessor, Pope Benedict, met several times with abuse victims, starting in 2008.MORE IN Wire NewsLOS ANGELES A foul-mouthed Teddy bear is no match for a pack of dinosaurs. Full StoryTRENTON, N.J. When New Jersey Gov. Full StoryVIENNA A senior U.S. Full Story

How easy is zbrush to use.
debi56 - 16 August 2012 04:03 PMHow easy is zbrush to use.
how quick do you learn ?:coolgrin:
its not bad .
Try it. Z-Brush is amazingly powerful, but I would not say that it is easy to get excellent results. Depending on talent this will require lots of practice. I would suggest to download the free Sculptris program: http://www.pixologic.com/sculptris/
Z-Brush is basically Sculptris on steroids (big time). If Sculptris works for you, get the free demo for Z-Brush and see what it can do. They have lots of video tutorials on their website. Watch those. It gives you a idea what can be done and how much effort is needed.

Smith: Cowboys in a pressure situation vs. Giants
Back in October when the Cowboys were a 3-3 team about to get blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night football, the schedule said they still had a chance to be in the NFC East driver's seat by December.
The Eagles' collapse under the weight of expectations and a brutal, back-loaded schedule is complete while Sunday night's opponents — the 6-6 New York Giants — come into town this week on a four-game losing streak thanks to a similarly rigorous November slate of games.
It's the perfect spot for the Cowboys to put the division in a stranglehold except for the fact that last Sunday's head scratcher of a loss in Arizona still lingers. And because of that, the heat that was supposed to be on the Giants is on the Cowboys.
You see, the loss to the Cardinals actually did more than just end the four-game win streak that put the Cowboys in control of their division. It also brought back the memory of past Cowboys teams (all the way back to the Tom Landry days) that played down to the level of their opponents and occasionally paid for it dearly.
And when you really think about it, you could see this coming a mile away.
The Redskins game was closer than it should have been, but you could excuse that away as a division opponent knowing you almost as well as you know yourself.
But things were also stickier than anticipated Thanksgiving Day when Dallas outlasted the three-win Miami Dolphins at home. But that was the result of a short week, right?
Maybe the truth is that something is wrong and, for once the blame doesn't rest with Tony Romo.
After near canonization locally for the job he did in restoring the team in the second half of last season after Wade Phillips' departure, Cowboys' coach Jason Garrett is feeling the heat.
His play-calling is suddenly suspect; game-management issues abound; and then there's the whole "icing your own kicker" thing to consider.
All this combines to make Sunday night the classic must-win game against an opponent who's equally desperate to save their season, as well as two coaches in New York's Tom Coughlin and Garrett who may have something to save as well.
Specifically, their jobs.

United States v. Howley
By Ron Gonski – Edited by Daniella Adler
United States v. Howley, Nos. 11–6040, 11–6071, 11–6194 (6th Cir. Feb. 4, 2013)
Slip Opinion
The Sixth Circuit unanimously affirmed in part and vacated and remanded in part a ruling by the Eastern District of Tennessee, which found that defendants Howley and Roberts stole trade secrets and committed wire fraud in connection with Goodyear's tire-manufacturing technology.
The Sixth Circuit affirmed the defendants' convictions but, in response to the government's cross-appeal, vacated the sentences imposed by the District Court and remanded for resentencing. In so ruling, the Sixth Circuit indicated that the District Court did not supply an estimate of the economic loss from the theft of a trade secret and the reasons for that estimate, as it is obligated to do.
FindLaw provides an overview of the case. The Non-Competes blog notes that the Sixth Circuit opinion appears to open the door for a trial judge, when determining the economic loss due to the theft of a trade secret, to consider evidence that might be inadmissible under the Federal Rules of Evidence.

Blessed to do for others
Woman honored for giving spirit
Need help with a meal? Stickers for a yard sale? Help running an errand or organizing a game night? Or, maybe just a sidekick for a trip to Walgreens?
Folks at Ascension Towers know who they're gonna call: Durice Peterson.
She's curious, active, helpful, cheerful, still a go-getter at 82 and the perfect choice, her neighbors say, for her senior living community's first Good Samaritan Award.
"Lord, I was about to fall out when they said, 'Mrs. Peterson has won!'," she reports. "I didn't expect to get it."
Peterson proudly displays the trophy and certificate that come with the relatively new honor at Ascension Towers. Residents nominate a neighbor, the names go in a hat and one name is drawn as Good Samaritan Award winner. Peterson's was the first drawn.
One of the winner's duties is to officiate at the next Good Samaritan event and draw the name of the next Good Samaritan. On Sept. 28, Peterson drew the name of resident Jesse Evans as the second Good Samaritan.
"Mrs. Peterson is an awesome woman of God," says Theresa Bridgeforth, community manager of the 186-unit residence. "She has a passion for helping. She's cheerful in her giving.
"She shows love to everybody, doesn't matter their color, male or female … If they don't have enough food, she'll make something for them. If they need help to clean up their home, she makes sure they are taken care of.
"She'll even raise money if someone is in great need, and because everybody respects her, people tend to support her efforts."
Connie A. Brown is a friend of Peterson's nephew Charlie Sullivan and calls her every day.
"Durice," Brown says, "has a wonderful attitude. She is always perky and full of energy. She loves to cook … makes yummy chocolate pies and shares them. If there's something that needs to be taken care of, she'll do it — or she'll get her nephew Charlie to do it! He can fix anything."
The widow of retired truck driver Thurman Peterson, Durice can just about see her old house in Sherwood Forest from her Ascension Towers apartment. It's the house where she reared their sons Floyd and Ronnie, and baby-sat other kids to help make ends meet. She and her husband saw their boys through Messick High and college too.
"I didn't even finish school," says Mrs. Peterson. "My daddy moved out in the country so far, I just quit. I was in the ninth grade.
"We lived out from Moscow, Tenn., back in the boondocks. I had to walk about 4 miles — I was scared to death — just to catch the school bus into Somerville. Lord, I got sick of that.
"So, I quit, stayed home and helped my mother. I married when I was 18 — my first and only. He was nine years older than me, and he treated me like I was so good, just babied me. Actually, he treated me like a queen."
Thurman Peterson has been gone six years, and while it's a point of deep sadness to Durice, she holds tight to her key to happiness:
"I just make do with what I've got. As long as I feel as good as I do, I feel the Lord has blessed me to have these years to do for others."

I had a computer guy turn the disks into Word documents—and then I had 50 Word documents.
The real punch line is that he filed these disks away in his office.
Latinate spelling preferred in British English for most uses of disk (q.v.). American English tends to use it in the musical recording sense; originally of phonograph records, recently of compact discs. Hence, discophile "enthusiast for gramophone recordings" (1940).
American English preferred spelling, 1660s, "round flat surface," from Latin discus "quoit, discus, disk," from Greek diskos, from dikein "throw," from PIE *dik-skos-, from root *deik- "to show, pronounce solemnly; also in derivatives referring to the directing of words or objects" [Watkins].
Sense of "phonograph disk" is 1888; computing sense is from 1947. Disk jockey first recorded 1941; dee-jay is from 1955; DJ is 1961; video version veejay is 1982. Disk-drive is from 1952.

Variant of disk.

Dualview problems
Ok, so I thought I'd watch a new HD film on my LCD TV, turned on dual view and straight away problems, getting constant hissing from the LCD's speakers, sounds like interference and if I up the resolution to 1360*768 the screen also turns pink, wonderful, using 177.41
Never had this issue with my 8800GTX, 8800GT or 7800GTX, but problem with NEW GTX280 any ideas as to why i'm getting this??
If I'm unable to find I fix for this the card is going back as I need this to work, to play movies and watch TV. :(
Re: Dualview problems
Re: Dualview problems
I really hope they can fix this, as theres no good reason for it not to work.
Re: Dualview problems
Ok, it works with VGA cable, also tried a different DVI-HDMI cable and it still didn't work, tried with second system and both work fine with my 8800GT so it's not the cables.
Seems DVI-HDMI just doesnt work with the GTX280. :thumbdwn:
Re: Dualview problems
They need to solve this, whats the point in having HDMI enabled DVI connections when it behaves like this when hooked upto to a HDMI connection on a TV.

Rep. Cohen calls on Obama to commute longer sentences for crack cocaine possession
WASHINGTON – Because public opinion and the law have changed regarding lengthy prison terms for drug offenses, President Barack Obama should commute the sentences of thousands of prisoners jailed before crack cocaine guidelines were changed, U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen said at a U.S. Capitol news conference Tuesday.
Cohen, a Memphis Democrat, also said that states such as Colorado and Washington that have legalized marijuana possession should be allowed to be "laboratories of democracy" without federal law enforcement interference.
Using the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the historic March on Washington, he said the president should act, using the language of Martin Luther King's speech that day, with "the fierce urgency of now."
Cohen said the president has made far less use of his pardoning power than his recent predecessors, but should use it to free those deprived of their liberty because the change in the law did not result in their release.
Cohen, who suggested reforms to the Tennessee governor's pardon power during the 1977 Tennessee Constitutional Convention and during the pardon-selling scandal that enmeshed Gov. Ray Blanton, said the pardon power must be used wisely.
"The pardon power should not be be one that's used for politics. It should not be used for friends. It should not be used to pay back friends or to do injustice," Cohen said. "It should be done to deliver mercy."
Cohen wrote to the president on June 18 making several recommendations on changing policy in the war on drugs which on Tuesday he called "a costly drain" on resources better used for other purposes. He has made the same case when Atty. General Eric H. Holder Jr. has testified before the House Judiciary Committee and in letters to Holder and the administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration.
In his comments to a handful of reporters at the Capitol, Cohen also called attention to a recent American Civil Liberties Union report indicating significant racial disparities exist in marijuana possession arrests across the country.
According to a May 2011 memorandum to the U.S. Sentencing Commission by its general counsel, of the 29,478 crack cocaine offenders in prison when the Fair Sentencing Act took effect in November 2011, 12,040 would have already served out their terms if the new sentencing guidelines were enacted retroactively. It's unclear how many of those people are still in prison and would benefit by what Cohen is proposing.
Before the 2010 change in the law, a first-time offender in possession of 50 or more grams of crack cocaine could face jail time of 10 years to life, while a first offender in possession of less than 500 grams of powder cocaine faced the prospect of no jail time or up to 20 years.

The City of Santa Clarita's mission in an emergency situation is to save lives. By protecting property and the environment in situations associated with natural disasters, manmade disasters, and national security emergencies, the City follows these emergency management objectives:
For more information contact:
Sign up for our monthly Emergency Preparedness Tips eNotify.
Personal preparedness when traveling is important, especially when traveling abroad. So with some extra planning and attention to detail, the vacation of a lifetime can be safe and enjoyable.
1. Documentation
Make sure you have a signed, valid passport, and visas (if required). Also, before you leave home, fill in the emergency information page of your passport.
2. Read Up on the Destination
It is always wise to be knowledgeable about the destination of travel, to plan the trip carefully, and to be courteous guests when traveling. Always read the public announcements or travel warnings, if applicable, for the countries you plan to visit.
3. Understand Local Laws
Familiarize yourself with local laws and customs of the countries to which you are traveling. Remember, the U.S. Constitution does not follow you! While in a foreign country, you are subject to its laws. It is important to be alert and observant.
4. Back Up Documentation
Make two copies of your passport identification page. This will facilitate replacement if your passport is lost or stolen. Leave one copy at home with friends or relatives. Carry the other with you in a separate place from your passport, and email it to yourself as well.
5. In Case of an Emergency
Leave a copy of your itinerary with family or friends at home so that you can be contacted in case of an emergency.
6. Watch Your Luggage
Do not leave your luggage unattended in public areas and do not accept packages from strangers.
7. U.S. Embassy or Consulate Assistance
Prior to your departure, you should register with the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate through the State Department's travel registration website, https://step.state.gov/step/.
Registration will make your presence and whereabouts known in case it is necessary to contact you in an emergency. In accordance with the Privacy Act, information on your welfare and whereabouts may not be released without your express authorization.
8. Communication is Vital
Check to make sure you can make international calls with your mobile phone. Get a charger that will work in your destination and pre-program essential contact information for easy access when needed.
9. Road Safety, Avoid Injury
In many parts of the world there are chaotic streets and crowded roads, along with under-maintained roadways. If you are not familiar with local road conditions, it is best not to drive on your own. Hire a trusted driver, and always wear a seatbelt.
10. Safeguard Your Health
Unexpected injuries or hospital stays can ruin a long-planned trip. Safeguard your health before you leave home and make sure you know how your personal health could be affected by your travel destination. Do you have travel health insurance; or does your existing medical insurance provider in the United States cover your medical expense in a foreign country? Be sure to bring more prescription medications than you would normally need and pack them in their original containers, in your carry-on luggage. Eat as healthy as you can. Consider that infections spread easily in much of the world and new strains constantly surface – so wash your hands frequently and practice safe personal hygiene.

YIELD: Makes 8 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 30 min
TOTAL TIME: 1 1/2 hr
Whisk together vinegar, mustard, pepper, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
Quarter potatoes, then cover with cold water by 1 inch in a 4- to 5-quart pot and bring to a boil with remaining teaspoon salt. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, then transfer hot potatoes to a large bowl and toss with onion and all but 1/4 cup vinaigrette. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
While potatoes cool, cook green beans in a 3-quart saucepan of boiling salted water, uncovered, until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes, then drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Let stand 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
Just before serving, toss potato mixture with green beans, celery, parsley, and remaining 1/4 cup vinaigrette.
Cooks' notes:
Potatoes can be cooked and tossed with onion and vinaigrette 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature (this will take about 1 hour), then add remaining ingredients.
Green beans can be cooked and celery can be diced 1 day ahead and chilled separately, wrapped well in dampened paper towels, in sealed plastic bags.

Think like winners, Ronny Tong says
The pan-democratic camp should cast aside its role as a mere opposition and embrace a 'ruling mentality' if it is to offer a suitable candidate to be the first chief executive elected by universal suffrage in 2017, one leading member of the coalition says.5 Jun 2012 - 12:00am

CE runners must clarify positions
Campaign platforms are crucial in elections. They set out the visions of the candidates standing for public office. They are the promises made to the voters in return for their support. The chief executive election is less than three months away. While only 1,200 people are eligible to vote, there is much public interest in the plans of the candidates.6 Jan 2012 - 12:00am
All quiet on the democracy front
While the two front runners in the race to be the city's next chief executive seek to outdo each other with promises on housing, welfare and education, Henry Tang Ying-yen and Leung Chun-ying have spelled out only a few broad principles on how to attain universal suffrage for the city if either wins the top job in March.6 Jan 2012 - 12:00am

Show you treasure the right to vote
The district council elections are our city's most democratic, a fact usually not reflected in campaigning or voter turnout. The exception was in 2003, when issues such as Sars, a long economic downturn and unpopular proposals for a national security law galvanised public interest. Electioneering for today's polls has been quiet.6 Nov 2011 - 12:00am

Although they're effective at neutralising stomach acid - I had to take these holding my nose so I couldn't taste them as I chewed. They're absolutely VILE in the taste department (and taste nothing like licorice... nothing like any natural substance really - just chemically.) Would never buy again.

Works very well for stomach and intestinal discomfort - we take it before meals, or whenever needed. This brand is far less sweet in taste, which we prefer.
Good product

Pattern In Bronze
Judd-319, PR64 Red and Brown
Design. The obverse die is similar to the Braided Hair large cent design, with 13 stars around Liberty's bust and the date below. The reverse displays the denomination 3 CENTS in two lines, centered in a laurel wreath, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around. Struck in bronze or copper with a plain edge.
Commentary. Hoarding of regular coinage during the uneasy days of the Civil War led to a desperate shortage of small change in the national economy. One measure considered to alleviate the problem was to replace the precious-metal trime with a bronze three cent piece. The pieces were struck at different times and on various planchets with different weights, in order to evaluate the feasibility of such a coin. The project was abandoned when it was discovered that the public hoarded copper coins, too. The present coin weighs approximately 144 grains, indicating that it is an original issue, not a restrike.
Physical Description. An exceptional strike, with fine detail on all design elements. Original mint-red color remains in areas around the devices, with attractive deep blue toning on the fields. Deeper toning on the reverse, with a dark spot at 6 o'clock. NGC Census: 1 in PR64 Red and Brown, 7 finer in either Brown or Red and Brown. PCGS Population: None in PR64 Red and Brown, 3 finer (12/08).

The latest rundown on what is the Capital Region's revolving door in the restaurant universe.
• Albany entrepreneur John DeJohn's Albany restaurant mini-empire is about to shrink by two venues. His DeJohn's Restaurant & Pub and Legends Sports Lounge, located next door to each other on Lark Street, will close after service on Sunday.
DeJohn said the decision is based on several factors, among them a decline in business and what the Times Union says he characterizes as "hostility to the bar business from some factions of Lark Street neighborhood groups." DeJohn complains that he has had to close DeJohn's and Legends at 2 a.m. while other bars, including his own Justin's -- also on Lark -- are allowed to serve until 4 a.m.
Apparently, then, he is blaming the fact that he can't sell alcohol for two hours in the middle of the night at the two ill-fated venues for failing to thrive. Fascinating business plan. Richard Berkley, immediate past president of the Hudson/Park Neighborhood Association, doesn't buy it. He tells the TU, "From the neighborhood's perspective, asking a tavern to close at its legal closing hours is not hostility, it is simply asking a business to follow the law."
The closures will result in 32 people being laid off. DeJohn says he will continue operating his other ventures in the city, including Justin's, Legends on Pearl and DeJohn's Ship's Pub near Memorial Hospital.
• Nanola is having a soft opening this weekend with a limited menu of food and beverages, but a lot of buzzworthy chat. It is the latest venture for Shane Spillenger, who worked with his father, Ralph, at the Bayou Café and Jillian's in Albany. The name? A mix of "nanotech" and the abbreviation for New Orleans, LA. In other words, a mix of the Bayou Café's Louisiana menu and the nearby Global Foundries chip-flab plant. The address is 2639 Route 9, Malta, Saratoga County Phone: (518) 871-1194.
• Wolf's 1-11 Arena Sports Grill at the Times Union Center in downtown Albany is for sale. Owner Mike Diraddo says he wants to concentrate on his original Wolf's 1 11 on Wolf Road in suburban Colonie, not a big surprise since the food-and-games giant chain Dave & Buster's recently opened a venue nearby. The Albany operation has an asking price of $449,000.
• The Shanghai Grill in Loudonville's Newton Plaza is closed. A sign just posted on the door says the move is temporary to allow for renovations, and its telephone voice mail promises a December reopening. The restaurant opened in the spring of 2006 then expanded just six months later.


text: Not a generalization whatsoever. And not just marketing hype either. I own and use quite a variety of these lenses, and have owned various others in the past. And baloney that they aren't apo except the Apo El Nikkor. I have a whole suite of regular Apo Nikkors, and they are mfg to higher color standards than dedicated enlarger lenses, just with smaller max apertures. Yes, I'm aware of my friend Ctein's opinion of the Apo El based on tests way back when - but he doesn't own or use one of those either. They are simply too heavy for most enlargers, and frankly, overkill for most applications. Too much MTF and you actually start picking out tiny blemishes in negative carrier, on the film, etc. Too much of a good thing. But they are currently prized by folks who need a highly corrected lens for scanning backs for copying paintings etc, and do well enough at it to afford that kind of thing.

June 23, 2006EFF went to court today to tell a federal judge that the government should not be allowed to use the "state secrets privilege" to preempt our class-action lawsuit against AT&T.
April 20, 2006Today, EFF Staff Attorney Kurt Opsahl argued the critical issues in Apple v.

February 15, 2006If you were upset about Sony BMG's dangerous digital rights management (DRM) released in millions of CDs last year, now is the time show that you care.

December 15, 2005As you may know, EFF filed suit last week on behalf of voting integrity advocate Joyce McCloy, arguing that the North Carolina Board of Elections ignored its obligation to test all electronic voting system source code before certifying those systems for use in the state.

December 8, 2005Next Steps Unclear, Action Still Needed
February 21, 2013San Francisco - Digital-rights activist Danny O'Brien is back at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), rejoining the organization as its new International Director.
February 11, 2013San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) urged the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today to include strict privacy protections for data collected by vehicle "black boxes" to protect drivers from long-term tracking as well as the misuse of their information.
February 4, 2013San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) urged the Supreme Court Friday to block DNA collection from everyone arrested for a crime, arguing that law enforcement must get a warrant before forcing people to give samples of their genetic material.
January 23, 2013San Francisco - A group of Reddit "gaymers" are fighting to protect the name of their online forum after a website operator managed to register the term as a trademark and then claimed the group's Reddit forum infringed his trademark rights. In a petition filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) today, the group asks the USPTO to cancel the "gaymer" trademark registration so that people around the world can continue to use the word without interference.
January 22, 2013San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) urged the high court of Massachusetts today to protect the rights of passengers in cars that law enforcement are tracking with GPS surveillance technology, arguing that both the driver and the passenger of a car have legal standing to challenge the collection of sensitive location data gathered by the GPS devices.
January 18, 2013San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) urged a federal judge today to protect fair use of news coverage and reject the Associated Press' (AP's) dangerously narrow view of what is "transformative" in a copyright court battle over a news-tracking service.
December 19, 2012San Francisco - America's broken patent system needs major reform to protect innovators and the public.

December 7, 2012San Francisco - The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) urged the full Federal Circuit today to throw out the dangerous patents it previously held valid in CLS Bank v. Alice Corp, arguing that the court's earlier decision goes against the law and helps foster the recent dramatic increase in patent litigation. In the amicus brief filed today, EFF proposes that the court require patent owners to claim what they actually invent and nothing more.
December 6, 2012San Francisco - Today, Washington state officials announced that they have dropped their defense of a law aimed at combatting online sex trafficking ads by targeting Internet service providers, conceding that the statute was unconstitutional and violated federal law.
November 7, 2012San Francisco - Today the ACLU of Northern California (ACLU-NC) and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed a federal class-action lawsuit to block implementation of unconstitutional provisions of Proposition 35 – a ballot measure passed by California voters Tuesday that restricts the legal and constitutionally protected speech of all registered sex offenders in California.

Top prospects for Vero Beach city attorney expected to be named Feb. 21
VERO BEACH — The city's personnel consultant is expected to present the top three names of prospective city attorneys on Feb. 21 to the City Council to schedule further interviews, City Clerk Tammy Vock said Thursday.
She said David Johnson, president of Vero Beach's HR Dynamics Inc., told a city selection committee he already has narrowed the original 53 candidates to eight finalists, but wants to screen them further to get the top three.
"He didn't mention any names, but just said (acting City Attorney) Wayne Coment was among them," Vock said.

New to Scala, but experienced in C++ I'm trying to implement (possibly misguidedly) a small library on top of the sqlite4java library to allow me to auto-fill tuples of abritrary type from query rows (rows whose column types are each compatible with the respective tuple element type).
In C++ I normally implement this using boost::tuples and compile-time template recursion (terminated using template specialisation as shown below). Boost tuples are implemented very similarly to Haskell HLists. The pattern would be (assuming, for simplicity that the query is returned as vector of strings):
template<typename T1, typename T2>
void populateTuple( boost::tuples::cons<T1, T2>& tupleRec, int index, const std::vector<std::string>& vals )
tupleRec.head = boost::lexical_cast<T1>( vals[index] );
populateTuple( tupleRec.tail, index+1, vals );
template<typename T>
void populateTuple( boost::tuples::cons<T, boost::tuples::null_type>& tupleRec, int index, const std::vector<std::string>& vals )
tupleRec.head = boost::lexical_cast<T>( vals[index] );
(Apologies - I've not run the above through a compiler, but am hoping it shows what I mean)
I'd love to be able to do something similar with Scala. I can recurse over a general Tuple type via the Product trait - and get the type of each element at run time using pattern matching (for the small number of column types I support). However I haven't found a way to assign Tuple elements via the product trait. And to be honest, I'm not convinced that this is a particularly nice or idiomatic way to do what I require anyway.
But something like:
val returnedFromQuery = List[String]( "Hello", "4", "6.0" )
val rowAsTuples = interpretListAsTuple[(String, Int, Float)]( returnedFromQuery )
Where rowAsTuples has type (String, Int, Float). Again, please excuse any syntax errors.
Anyone have any thoughts? Or alternative suggestions? In advance - I'm not interested in any higher-level SQL query libraries. I'm happy with sqlite4java but want to wrap it with a simple more abstract interface.
