Yes he hits into a good number of double plays and that seems to be an argument for not putting him in front of Votto because too often he hits into the DP.
Now I'm not arguing where he should bat and the thread really isn't deemed to go that way. I argued a while back that when he bats 4th he admittedly tries to hit more homers and drive in more RBI and is essentially pull happy....but any other spot in the order he goes oppo more and I bet he doesn't hit into to many DP's when he goes oppo.
Well, check out these numbers (of course they prove me right...hence the thread)
2012.....he has 14 DPs.....0 to the opposite side.
2011....15 DPs.....0 to the opposite side
2010....14 DPs.....0 to the opposite side
He has more than 50 DPs since his last one going oppo.
Career.....135 DPs.....3 were oppo
He has hit to the oppo side of the field 350+ times without a DP since his last one in early 2009.
Real simple.....if he's batting 2nd in front of Votto with a good leadoff hitter and the approach to go oppo.....aren't going to be any DPs to worry about.

Although Ryan Gosling stopped tweeting back in 2011, we're happy to report there's hope that he hasn't abandoned us web folk completely. Earlier tonight, Ryan_Gosling took to Instagram to show the world how he winds down. For what it's worth, we're not 100% certain that it's actually the Ryan Gosling we know and love, but we're happy to see that with Ryan_Gosling, the feeling is mutual. Let us know when you want the new issue, Driver! And if you can confirm that "Ryan_Gosling" is indeed The Gos, we've got an issue coming with your name on it as well.

Whether one is producing music, podcasts, game sounds, or film sound effects, Digital Audio Principles provides the tips and techniques that will make the project a success. Author Dave Schroeder explains the basics of digital audio production techniques and covers the essential hardware and software. He also discusses sound theory, frequency response, the range of human hearing, and dynamic range.
In this section we're going to look at the various hardware and software components that make up a Digital Audio Workstation. Now a Digital Audio Workstation or a DAW is just really kind of a general term to describe a system that you used to work with digital audio. It can be as simple as a piece of software just a single stand-alone piece of software, or it can involve a lot of different components, computer, external A/D converters, really high-end equipments. It can include a big control desk or a large recording console. It can also be a stand-alone unit that doesn't use a computer at all.
It can be a desktop device. In a nutshell, the DAW is what you make it. In the next few chapters, we're going to talk about all the different components that come into play or can come into play individually. So in the next several chapters, we're going to cover all the different components that you'll find in DAWs. In this section, I just want to give you a quick overview of these different components. How they fit into the system, and kind of look at how they work together. So you'll have Sound Sources, things like sound in the air, voices, musical instruments. You'll also have digital sources like WAV files, sound effects files that you're bringing in. You'll use microphones to capture sound sources.
You'll also have line level sources. Things like drum machines, or synthesizers. You'll use a lot of cables and connectors to connect these things. There are quite a few different ones out there. Plugging stuff isn't that hard, but identifying the right cable and connector the first time, and kind of making sure you have the right cables and connectors, it helps a lot. There is also the Mixer, which we'll look at, hardware and software versions of, this is the way they'll kind of help you route all your audio signals to and from your computer. Then you'll see Computer Audio Interfaces.
This is a piece of hardware that lets us get analog sound to digital, and vice-versa, in and out of the computer. Typically, you'll have adjustable inputs from microphones or other analog sources, a way of transferring digital data to and from a computer, probably be a USB or FireWire, and also outputs for connecting speakers and headphones. Then once you get things into the computer, we'll deal with actually putting the data on a hard disk, and then software to work with that data or a recording software application. You can use this software to record or capture digitized audio.
Once we get the digitized information into your computer, we'll record it on to hard disk. Then we'll use recording software or digital audio application to manipulate that sound. It's what's able to kind of see that information on your hard disk as actual sound. We'll use this to record, edit, playback, manipulate, and produce the audio. Finally, we'll feed our Monitors, which are not flat screen panels, but they're actually speakers and audio, that's always the case, monitors refer to listening back, and devices like headphones and speakers.
So your Computer Audio Interface or Mixer will have outputs to your Monitors. In the next movie, we'll look at the signal flow in a typical Digital Audio Workstation.

Barney Decorates White House One Last Time
It's Barney the dog's last Christmas in the White House and he's been charged with making the holiday decorations super special this year. In his new YouTube video, A Red, White and Blue Christmas, the First Family's Scottie decks the halls of the White House with Christmas decor -- with a little encouragement from some famous faces like Olympians Nastia Liukin and Michael Phelps. "I'm glad the decorations are finally coming together – and you're using my favorite color, gold," says Phelps. After the house is draped in all the holiday trimmings, the First Lady helps Barney and his pal Miss Beazley bid farewell after eight years in office. So long, Barney!

Made this shirt for KG when he hit his 25,000th point sometime last season. Shirt is basically irrelevant now since he got traded and it's for sale (dirt cheap) on the Celtics team shop website. I copped a couple myself for my portfolio and to see how they turned out production-wise. Screenprint turned out really well and I'm really happy with the graphic as a whole.
Found the shirt here: http://www.celticsstore.com/detail.php?p=443513&SESSID=be04ba44f907be52712191886a7fca4f

Scientists make key step in the development of a norovirus treatmentFebruary 1st, 2011 in Medicine & Health / Medical research

With the number of norovirus infection cases rising across the country, scientists from the University of Southampton have successfully crystallised a key norovirus enzyme, which could help in the development of a norovirus treatment.
Noroviruses are recognised world-wide as the most important cause of epidemic nonbacterial gastroenteritis (stomach bugs) and pose a significant public health burden, with an estimated one million cases per year in the UK. In the past, noroviruses have also been called 'winter vomiting viruses'.
By crystallising the key protease enzyme, the research team from the University has been able to design an inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme from the 'Southampton' norovirus. The inhibitor works by preventing the enzyme in the norovirus from working, stopping the spread of infection.
The virus is called the Southampton virus because this particular virus was first found in an outbreak that came from a family in Southampton. Traditionally, individual noroviruses are named after the place from which the virus was first found, so for example the very first norovirus is known as Norwalk virus because it discovered in Norwalk in Ohio, America.
University of Southampton virologist Professor Ian Clarke says:
"Noroviruses place a huge burden on the NHS. This is an important step forward in the rational design of new drugs to treat norovirus infections. Now we know the drug works in the test tube, the next step is to see whether we can modify and deliver it to the site where the virus grows."
The research team hopes to translate their laboratory findings into an antiviral treatment for norovirus infection.

**For a 1280x1024 b-side of the first frame of the comic click here.
**For a 1280x1024 wallpaper of frame two of the comic click here.
If mushrooms screamed when we bit into them, would we be so quick to eat them? Well what if they screamed all the time, for no good reason?
Please read the word bubbles from top to bottom, regardless of whether they're on the left or right.
Despite appearances I had to bust my ass on this one, big time. I had the original idea for this a few months ago. Over time it's evolved, and looking at the final product now I'm VERY pleased with how it came out. I hope you like it too, because this could very well be the LAST NEW set I make with these characters. I've been working on some V4 based characters and I'll be rolling stuff out with them soon.
As layout's go it's fairly simple (3 main frames) though there's a method to this madness:
Frame 1-> The set up and mild humour of a type you'd find in a mild comic strip or sit-com. Welcome to dilbert country. The humour here is of course, a diversion.
Frame 2-> The transition from mild to horrific. we read the text, see the faces and the darker among us might think, "hey it's funny that they're eating heads." This frame also serves as a flash look at the personalities of my busty elves. Szin is well meaning but completely amoral. She doesn't try to hide what she did, in her mind it's just all in a day's work. Alis is naive but WHEN she perceives that a wrong has occurred, she'll speak up. Nat is completely self centred, the world could burn so long as her desires are met.
Frame 3-> Complete and utter destruction! How the hell did we get here? This is so wrong, and that's what makes it funny. Welcome to PerryBibleFellowship country. Szin's actions are made even more horrific by the fact that we can see a perfectly good mushroom patch on the other side of the village, fairly untouched. On another level one could say this frame also acts as a commentary on how we treat the natural environment that sustains us. Most of us don't spend a second thought on the damage our consumption causes to the ecosystem we're dependent on for our survival.
Also, they're busty! So... layers upon layers, wheels within wheels, and so on.
Finally, a special thanks to Danamongden. His advice and him pointing me to some free Xero filters helped me to get a bit of a story-book feel to these images. At least that's the feel I was going for.

Well done! Very well done! First, the imagery and framing of each cell looks just like a high end comic, the layout and design are exact! Next, the characters themselves are posed and set very well in their environment. The story itself makes for a plot twist and a cliffhanger while simultaneously tickling the funny bone and throwing a bit of social commentary into the mix. Can you imagine one day picking up a published paperback version of "Busty Elfs in Peril" perhaps soon! It could happen!

Its because mushrooms scream when you bite into them is why I only eat steak. It doesn't make any sounds when you cut into one nicely cooked.
With mushrooms.
Okay, so I ignore the little buggers crying "Oh please don't eat us!!"
If you eat enough mushrooms, you will hear them converse and watch them cavort, too.
Good production elements in this comic strip presentation.
Clever concept, too.
Love the idea, Busty Elves in Peril.

Patch 1.1 is released!

Re: Patch 1.1 is released!
Max. frames in the first level are not much better, maybe one fps but the min. frames are higher. Where I saw dips down to 25fps, they go down to 29fps now. I noticed the same when I used a "very high" config, not much higher "max fps" but the average/min fps are up. The pauses in the cutscenes of the final level are gone, and the level seems a lot smoother. Good patch so far!

The American Dairy Science Association® (ADSA®), the American Society of Animal Science (ASAS), and the Canadian Society of Animal Science (CSAS) held the 2014 Joint Annual Meeting (JAM) in Kansas City, Missouri, July 20–24.
Following several rounds of strategic planning, ASAS and ADSA have made some changes to JAM. Beginning with the 2013 JAM, ADSA and ASAS will rotate operations responsibility for JAM. That means 2014 will be ASAS's first opportunity to serve as JAM host. We have two main goals for JAM 2014: 1) to present high quality, relevant science that links animal science and animal agriculture, and 2) to return to our roots, adding back a number of the social events that will enhance networking and add a family feel to the meeting.
• A meeting theme: "Linking animal science and animal agriculture: Meeting the global demands of 2050"
• Invited oral presentations throughout the session to "link" back to the theme
• Enhanced industry involvement in sessions
• Reception before the Opening Session
• Panel discussions during lunch:
- Animal Science in the Real World
- Funding Agencies: Perspectives in Today's Economy
The 2014 ADSA-ASAS-CSAS JAM was held July 20–24 (Sunday through Thursday). The opening session was Sunday evening, July 20; scientific sessions begin Monday morning, July 21, and ran through noon on Thursday, July 24. Please note the Triennial Lactation and ASN-ASAS preconferences were on Sunday, July 20.
• We are excited to change the format of our opening night. Following a reception and a brief opening session, we will bus participants for a BBQ at the National Ag Hall of Fame. Years ago, the BBQ was a standing event at ASAS meetings. We are excited to bring the BBQ back in a city famous for BBQ and at a venue created to honor agriculture.
• We have increased the number of spouse tours and added specific events for family members.
• We are adding back snacks throughout the day.
• Triennial Lactation Symposium: Biology of Lactation of Farm Animals
• ASAS-ASN Pre-Conference
• Cell Biology Symposium
• ADSA Multidisciplinary International Leadership Keynote (MILK) Symposium
• EAAP-ASAS Inaugural Global Hot Topics Symposium: "Genetics Revolution"
• Workshop: "Make your talk TED-worthy"
• Beta-Agonists: What the Data Say?

icons missing from playbook
Hi there... My daughter brought her playbook to me today and told me that all of her games were missing ,and asked if I could find them. She pointed out that the "Games" folder was missing and as well mentioned that the "Camera" icon was missing too...
I began scrolling around figuring she must have accidentally moved the missing folder/icon to a different screen or folder but they are not in any other folders or screens. I have checked all of the screens, scrolled up/down back/forth to make sure I am not missing anything. They are definately gone. If I launch app world and click on "My" it shows a ton of games as installed. I also did some searching around and found an app that allows you to manage the playbook applications from your PC using a web browser (in my case Chrome and a great app by the way). When I run this, it shows all of the missing games, and also allows to me launch them directly on the playbook. (including the system camera app) So, the apps/games are all there,installed on the playbook but I have no way to launch them without the icons. How on earth do I recreate these icons that went missing??
(PS, I suspect that she may have accidentally deleted the games folder, but of course she'll never admit it or maybe didn't even know what she was doing...)
Thanks for your help...

She obviously moved all the icons off of the dock and then tried to put some icons back on the dock. This is a know issue and has been discussed many times. Do a search on "missing icons dock" and you'll get info on partial fixes, at least.
- 12-02-12, 08:09 PM Thread Author #3
Hi there, I did a search and it appears that a wipe and reinstall may be in order... I screwed around a bit more and you are right, she must have moved it from the dock and tried to move it back. As a test, I tried to do move another icon to the dock and I had a notification pop up that said "array_insert invalid array index". The icon did not appear on the dock and is now missing from where it was...
Question... Once I do a wipe and reinstall, when I go back into app world does it show you which games you have downloaded in the past or should I make note of all the games she has downloaded first?

Move all your icons into the dock. They will disappear. When you have no icons left restart. You should get everything back.bbecause it's bbetter

OK, I'll give that a shot. Cross everything you have two of for me!!! LOL!

Look a little further, there is a partial fix but it'll mean you'll lose use of the dock permanently (until you wipe), but you can get your lost icons back. If you want your dock back, I think you'll have to wipe. As for app world, any apps that had been installed will show up in your uninstalled list after a wipe.
edit- do as jagrlover said, just don't try to put any icons on the dock after you do this- I think you'll lose them too.

Moved them all to the dock, restarted and now all are back! Thanks for all your help everyone! I guess BB10 will fix this one!! Looking forward to that! Cheers!
Listen, user, Rim says NO ONE will ever do that - so they ignore this STUPID BUG. And then someone else shows how stupid rim is for not fixing it in this newest OS as it has been around for a while now. So obviously your daughter was not prescient enough to know not to trigger this STUPID BUG!!!!
But question: Are there any icons on what should be the dock? And, don't move any there if its blank unless you want to have to move them all there again and reboot again?
Glad you got the thing working again.

Agreed F2 they have been well aware of this for some time and suggested that no one would ever do this. I see it all the time. It must be a real pita to fix, else...it would have been fixed already??

I think someone has replied to you in another thread. Swipe down and select the GEAR Icon, Find the UPDATE choice and select that and then update. It should get the rest of the OS and restore your icons.
Let us know.

So Good Luck to scipio. Remember, you can fail but still Pass. Just make sure that when you're on the ground, make sure you're unconscious. If you refuse and you're still standing, they take a dim view.
One bloke who used to work for me was ex-WO1 Depot PARA. Originally, he'd started out as 9 PARA Sqn RE. Anyway, when he did the Log Race, apparently he'd Passed Out and was dragged around the Course. He'd Passed cos he hadn't refused, he'd gone on until he'd collapsed. And that's OK ;-)

Thanks Guys. It's the Catterick one we are doing. We are aiming to get it done within 1 hour 50. At the moment we have a wide range of ages - some of us (myself included) in the late forties and a couple of whippersnappers in their 30's.
We tried to get a group last year but we found the problem was that loads of people said "yeah count me in" but when the reality of putting a load of training in with a forty pound pack we had loads of drop outs.

There are times when you look at the doors in your home and think that things are starting to get a bit shabby. The doors themselves might still be perfectly serviceable, undamaged or unmarked; but the tell-tale wear and tear is evident when you focus on the door handle itself. Whether this is on your interior doors or on the front and back doors to the outside it is easy to see when the time has come to think about a change to the handles. You might want the same or similar style or maybe even a completely different look, but you can be sure that what you want is out there somewhere.
Styles will vary you might be looking for the contemporary look, maybe something a little more sophisticated or you just might want to fall back on the old classic and traditional styles. Almost any style of door handle that you can imagine will be available somewhere! The key thing to think about though is what you actually need the door handle for. It would be pointless to attach a handle that rotates or has a spring lever action to a cupboard door that simply needs to be pulled to be opened. You would probably best be advised to seek out a smaller, round shaped door knob for this purpose one that is comfortable to grip with the finger tips rather than a large handle or knob that requires the whole hand to grasp it.
An unusual type of door handle can be found attached to caravan or motor home cupboard doors probably best to refer to this type as a door knob though. It is usually round in design and very small. Rather than gripping it with the finger tips and pulling as you might do for a kitchen cupboard door, you actually press the centre of the knob in and this releases a locking mechanism inside the door. Like any kind of cupboard or compartment in the home it is essential that the door is secure, even more so in a moving vehicle of course.
It has to have smoothed, maybe rounded, edges so that it feels good in your hand. You won't want to feel rough or jagged edges on the part that has most hand contact and you can be confident that a good quality product will not have this problem. Particularly where an external door is concerned it needs to be strong and durable to survive the many uses it might have every single day. It is easy to wear out the mechanism inside if you use that door constantly and a good quality door handle will help to extend the life of that mechanism if it is a good, strong fit inside.

About the Book:
Sculptor Ricardo Breceda's "Sky Art" is the perfect blend of stunning craftsmanship and placement in open desert landscape. Sculptures have evolved into whim and fantasy – something for everyone on this large desert palette. Startling and stunning as these imaginative sculptures are, they beg a story of how they came to be. This is that story, a story of how in ten short years following a devastating accident, Breceda has become a famous artist featured on public television, news media, magazines, and global blogs.

"Thin places–physical places with spiritual significance."
Thin Place Travel emphasizes trips that combine mind, body, and spirit. Its name comes from the Celtic understanding that in some places the line separating this world from the transcendent world is very thin, encouraging easy crossings. Our trips are designed for reflective people on their own pilgrimages through life who are interested in others who have gone before.
These tours are not academic, but they are for people who like books and ideas. Readings are suggested for preparing for each trip, and there are frequent talks, guided tours, and times for discussion. No tests or papers, but lots of good conversation.
Daniel Taylor and his wife, Jayne, have led many student and adult trips to places around the world, ranging from Britain, Western and Eastern Europe and Australia to Cuba, Guatemala, and Brazil. They continue to lead trips annually and invite those interested in coming along to contact them using the Contact page.
The next tour (a bit unexpectedly) will be another Celtic Christianity Tour in October of this year. "Ancient Faith for Modern Believers: A Celtic Christianity Tour" will take place in the first two weeks of October 2015. Starting in Dublin it will explore Celtic sites in Ireland, Scotland, and northern England, ending in Edinburgh. Size is limited. Contact us at email@example.com for details.
There will also be a tour in June 2016. One possibility is a C.S. Lewis tour that includes his upbringing in Ireland, as well as Malvern and Oxford (with some Tolkien stops in Birmingham). Or perhaps a general tour of Ireland and/or England that would include writers, castles, gardens, stately homes, and leisurely walks. Paris in the 1920's is an outside possibility too. Feel free to contact us with any preference you might have among these possibilities, or to suggest new ones.
A LIGHTLY LITERARY NEW ENGLAND LEAF TOUR (Oct. 10-19, 2014). A 10 day tour of New England with an emphasis on great American Writers (Dickinson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Melville) and great fall colors.
FOLLOWING THE SAINTS: A CELTIC CHRISTIANITY TOUR (September 7-21, 2013)
A two-week tour of Celtic Christian sites in Ireland, Scotland, and northern England. Begins in Dublin and ends in Edinburgh.
ENGLAND TERM REUNION TOUR (June 14-27, 2012)
For those who have participated in any Bethel University England Term semester or Interim "Travel Writing" course since 1979. A thirteen-day tour (with a departure point at 11 days) that will include some of the familiar places from past tours, plus something new.
C.S. LEWIS, TOLKIEN AND INKLINGS TOUR (September 5-12, 2012)
A seven-day tour of Oxford, the Cotswolds, Stratford, and Wales, with an emphasis on the lives and works of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien.

A Columbus teen was killed and a woman was seriously injured in separate falls yesterday at Hocking Hills State Park.
Josias Rodriguez, 19, died about 3:30 p.m. in a 60-foot fall at Old Man's Cave, said Ohio Department of Natural Resources spokesman Matt Eiselstein.
Rodriguez, who was hiking with some friends, left the marked trail, climbed a rock face and fell as he attempted to climb back down the cliff, Eiselstein said.
Other hikers attempted to revive Rodriguez, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. He was the sixth person to die in a fall at Old Man's Cave since 2001.
Rodriguez was a sophomore at Ohio Christian University in Circleville. The university canceled semester finals on Monday and scheduled a memorial service for Rodriguez at 1 p.m. in Detty Chapel. He was a 2011 graduate of Tree of Life Christian School in Columbus.
A 23-year-old Chillicothe-area woman was badly injured later in the afternoon at Cantwell Cliffs when she and her boyfriend left the trail and she slipped on the edge of a cliff and fell about 100 feet, Eiselstein said.
A doctor, nurse and retired police officer hiking nearby came to her aid. The woman, whose name was unavailable, was flown to Grant Medical Center in Columbus, where she was in serious condition.
"There are so many hazards," Eiselstein said of Hocking Hills State Park. "It's a beautiful place, but don't leave the marked trails."

Pediatric medicine
Low reimbursement depresses compensation
With their reimbursement rates often driven by Medicaid, pediatricians are among the lowest paid of all physicians. And although career satisfaction remains high, continued financial pressures may lead to a pediatrician shortage, especially outside of large metropolitan areas.
According to MGMA's 2008 Physician Compensation and Production Survey, the median compensation for pediatric/adolescent medicine was $182,727, up 4.89% from the previous year and 15.03% from 2003. That's slightly more than the 2007 median compensation for all primary care: $182,322.
The overall number can be misleading. For one thing, it encompasses some stark disparities: Median pediatric cardiology compensation is $269,859, whereas for child development, it's $148,978. In addition, perhaps more than any other specialty, compensation varies by location, says Beth A. Pletcher, MD, pediatric geneticist at the Institute of Genomic Medicine in Newark, NJ, and chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics' Committee on Pediatric Workforce.
Small gains
Historically, pediatric comp has been lower than most other specialties. However, it may be gaining a little ground, and it is now on par with internal and family medicine, says Jeff Laub, director of pediatrics at Salt Lake City–based CompHealth Permanent Placement. Not only has pediatric compensation increased, he's also seen sign-on bonuses and stipends for residents.
The Merritt Hawkins & Associates (MHA) 2008 Review of Physician and CRNA Recruiting Incentives found that search assignments for pediatricians, which had been flat or declining for about a decade prior, increased from 2006–2007 and 2007–2008. Moreover, the 2008 report found that this increased demand is having some effect on the financial incentives being offered to recruit them.
Nevertheless, the numbers remain relatively low: The average offer made to certified RN anesthetists in the 2008 review period was $185,000, compared to $159,000 for pediatricians, according to MHA.
Compensation challenges
"Pediatrics continues to be one of the lowest compensated specialties, and I really do not see anything on the horizon that will change that reality," says Fredrick T. Horton, president and CEO of Horton, Smith & Associates, a physician recruitment firm in Overland Park, KS. "Pediatricians tend to perform mainly cognitive services in their practices and, as such, will see continued low reimbursement and, therefore, low compensation."
Horton points to the following two trends in particular:
Medicaid issues
Pediatricians face more reimbursement challenges, says Pletcher. Because of how Medicaid is calculated, comparable services provided to children are reimbursed at a lower rate than are those for seniors, she says.
On average, Medicaid compensates at 72% of Medicare. And the Medicaid rate varies dramatically state by state. For example, in New Jersey, where Pletcher is based, the rate is only 34%. So, at least for pediatricians who care for numerous Medicaid patients, compensation may be well under the median, even for their specific region. Private payers, following suit, tend to reimburse pediatricians at a lower rate than those in other specialties.
Another issue is vaccinations. Pediatric practices often lose money on vaccines. They have to pay more than retail-based clinics that buy them in bulk, Pletcher says. Often, the reimbursement rate doesn't cover the vaccine and related costs.
Such factors may contribute to fewer pediatricians, or at least reduced access, Pletcher says. "There is a point at which one can no longer practice good medicine when the patient volume needed to sustain a practice reaches a critical level," she says. Small practices without outside support may be forced to limit or turn away patients with Medicaid or Medicaid-managed care insurance. "This isn't a theoretical any more, but a reality," Pletcher says.
Horton expects compensation issues to shrink the pool of pediatricians. However, unlike the situation with specialties, the shortage won't be caused by the demand issues associated with the large number of aging baby boomers, but rather by the overall reimbursement picture.
"Primary care and all cognitively oriented specialties will be challenged by the flat to moderately increasing payment trends, which tend to result in a limited number of physicians choosing those areas of medicine," Horton says.
Increasing numbers of pediatricians are considering early retirement, Pletcher says.
But more significant is the issue of access. Regardless of the total number of pediatricians in practice, access remains a concern in many areas of the country, Pletcher says.
As with other physicians, pediatricians are attracted to the big city. As they finish training, they are more likely to move to large metropolitan areas. Lifestyle issues, not demand, drive the distribution. The situation is even worse for pediatric subspecialists who are generally located in those areas, Pletcher says.
Pletcher points to another interesting trend: Demand is increasing for male pediatricians. She says according to the American Board of Pediatrics, 68% of pediatricians entering the work force in 2007 were women. Increasingly, practices are looking for men.

Independent, inquisitive, with an easy smile - I believe in a golden middle between seriousness and not taking oneself too seriously. Having been raised in Europe I've had that challenge as well as that luck of getting to blend qualities of both worlds, and it's taught me that our differences make us interesting and recognizing them makes us better. I'm very organized and a bit of a perfectionist. I think that if you can't laugh at yourself, you can't say you have a good sense of humor. I keep busy and social, but appreciate "me-time". I call it as I see it - ever so politely. I'm a terrible liar, so I'd basically stopped trying a while back.... I love trying new things, seeing new places, meeting new people. Being idle spoils my mood...so do arrogance, rudeness, hypocrisy and willful ignorance. I have a pretty clear idea about what I want and what I don't want my life to be, but that's a work in progress.... A kind person and a partner in crime - that's the type of person I'm interested in. Someone who knows herself. Someone empathetic, intelligent, honest (also with herself) and with a hunger for life. A traveler and an explorer; someone who would go to the theatre, or the shooting range, or an art opening, or dancing ....or equally enjoy kicking back with a drink and some silly movie.
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting

I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Cats
I have one Scottish Fold cat but she is more like a dog.
Some other viewpoint
I love exploring and finding new places.
Life-changing movies, cobbled streets, singing in the shower, the air before a thunderstorm, comfortable silences....
Good weather will never keep me indoors; neither will a good cultural event.

Microsoft to Develop own Open Source Platform
Yes, you read that headline right
Open source developer at Microsoft, Garrett Serack announced today plans to bring a native running open source platform to Windows.
In a blog posted today, Serack announced the Common Opensource Application Publishing Platform (CoApp). The post outlines the challenges of developing open source applications in a Windows environment and the differences between developing on UNIX and Linux and Windows.
From the site:
CoApp will:
• Provide a distributed, community driven package management system for open source applications on the Windows Platform
• Handle multiple versions of binaries using WinSxS (I know, even the mention of side-by-side components evokes fear, anger and the desire to go off-diet, but bear with me, I think we've got a solution), including multiple copies of the same version of the same library, compiled with different compilers.
• Support 64 bit and 32 bit systems, without hassle or collisions.
• Place binaries, libraries and header files in a logical and consistent location.
• Have tools and methods for handling dependencies.
• Create reliable installer packages (MSIs) for installing open source software.
• Facilitate sharing of components and allow multiple projects to easily both participate and consume them.
• Allow for upgrades and patching of both libraries and applications.
• Be Windows developer friendly. No forcing of building using 'make', but rather taking advantage of the nifty IDEs we already have.
• Also be Windows admin friendly. Even if it's open source, you shouldn't have to be a developer to put Open Source applications on Windows.
• Use advanced optimization techniques like Profile Guided Optimization to produce optimized binaries.
• Support future technologies as they come along.
• Aid in the adoption of Windows Error Reporting (WinQual) to assist in making software run better on Windows.
• End the eternal struggle between Green and Purple. Unless of course you're a Drazi and are conducting elections.
This announcement is one of the most notable steps toward open source development Microsoft has made. During an interview with The Chicago Sun-Times in 2001 Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer likened Linux to a cancer saying that it, "attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches."
The one thing Serack's exceptionally detailed post does leave out? A timetable. Though he does softly hint at a target in comment response. "I hope that you'll be pleasantly surprised a year from now."
Additional details can be found on Launchpad with a wiki at CoApp.org.
I don't want anything to do with MicrosoftWhatever open source software MS is cooking up... I do not want any of it. Microsoft has failed to beat the general open source, Linux, and *BSD communities. Thus, MS is now trying to infiltrate via trojan horse with deceit in order to destroy and subvert open source from within. Beware of Mono infection (Beagle, TomBoy, MonoDevelop, Muine, Banshee, Keypass 2, Diva, Galaxium, etc). MS is on the assault while sending the proverbial "Dove of Peace."
Community run patchingIt's seems that M$ has seen the light, and will allow developers to patch software by fixing security holes and software upgrades alike. While this may seem like a great idea, because it's open source, it's a good change that these developers won't get paid for their hard work, while M$ receives all the credit, and money..
I realize the open-source (Linux) communities don't pay their developers very well either, mostly in trade, branding and products.. I for one would still stay true open-source, versus a " Wolf in sheep's clothing "
Microsoft to offer "Windows 10" for free to everyone and but it's not really Windows, its really just linux with a Windows logo ... And guess what grand-ma NO Virus'
Microsoft Open SourceWe will soon learn that nobody at Microsoft has a clue what the term 'open source' means (or that they think the term means the exact opposite of what everyone that doesn't work for Microsoft thinks it means).
I'll bet it won't include terms that allow freely redistributing it, or freely distributing your work (you'll need to submit everything you do to Microsoft - for 'approval,' where they'll steal any ideas of yours they approve of).
There are two groups of people that do business with M$ - those that have been royally screwed, and those that soon will be.
Microsoft "open source"People who gush with statements like, "This announcement is one of the most notable steps toward open source development Microsoft has made", are seriously not paying attention. Here's a hint for you:
"I would love to see all open source innovation happen on top of Windows" - Steve Ballmer
MS BulldustI think if you were to lookup the definition of "DoubleTalk" it would probably pretty well equate to just this
Microsoft opensource for foolsI also heard that Microsoft will be giving away diapers with the shit already in them.
Translation:"Here, use our new framework to make your open source apps Windows-friendly... and completely non-portable."
Open-source developers targeting Windows have always had the ability to just use existing Windows tools like Visual Studio. Open source developers who use the maligned "make" for their projects are porting them to Windows from something Unix-like (in other words, pretty much any operating system other than Windows).
So I don't see who the target audience is here, except for perhaps tricking novice open-source developers into targeting Windows and nothing else. Maybe he should make an autoconf or cmake helper script that generates a Visual Studio project which in turn will generate .msi packages, rather than just saying "Here's a framework for developing open source applications on Windows just as you would develop any other Windows-only application."
As for the non-build-related stuff, the package management and DLL-hell-resolution stuff, why is that being developed only under the purview of an "open-source publishing platform" and not for Windows in general? DLL hell is by no means something that only open source developers complain about.
