Loyola's dean will be a scholar and teacher of national reputation who is experienced with and committed to both undergraduate and graduate education. He or she will embrace Loyola's mission and values and will make those values manifest by engaging with strategic partners across and beyond Chicago. Perhaps no aspect of the new dean's talents and experience will be as important as a commitment to innovation and creativity within and beyond the academic program. Loyola, for example, is reinventing teacher preparation in a new approach that it hopes will become a national model. The dean will see that innovative program through to realize its full potential and will similarly promote and reward innovation across the School's teaching and research agendae.
Accomplishing these tasks and helping the School to realize its full potential requires an academic leader with the credentials and the personality to support a national reputation in the field. The dean will be an effective and enthusiastic advocate for the School and the University to diverse audiences both external and internal. Because the School of Education faculty includes a high percentage of younger, up-and-coming scholars, the dean will particularly enjoy the opportunity to mentor the teachers and thought leaders of tomorrow. Superior communications and relationship-building skills are required as are an earned terminal degree and a record of scholarship and teaching commensurate with an appointment to the Loyola faculty with tenure. Previous, successful experience in both grantsmanship and private, philanthropic fund raising are highly preferred.
The Loyola University School of Education teaches the teachers of tomorrow in new and innovative ways; it serves its community with new ideas and approaches; and it anticipates the needs of the future with ground-breaking scholarship. Its dean will build upon a history of innovation and will, as a result, have the opportunity to play a leadership role in this critically important and fast-evolving field locally, regionally, and nationally.
Confidential review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Nominations, expressions of interest, and applications (including a statement of application and curriculum vitae) should be submitted via email to firstname.lastname@example.com [1].

We're day four of the New Year and already my resolutions are going by the wayside. I was supposed to be up early this morning so I could work to declutter a corner of the house, spend an hour writing, maybe walk the dogs…etc. Can anyone guess what happened? I had a hard time leaving my warm bed. I had a harder time thinking about going out in the gusting wind. I'm writing now, but I still need to carve out time to do my fiction work.
So what should I determine from this? Should I see this as a complete and utter failure and then expand it even more to determine that I am a failure? I think you know the answer. NO! But would you give the same answer to yourself?
Recently someone in my writing community forwarded a link to a blog discussing how to get back into the habit of writing. In the discussion was the sense that it takes 32 days of doing something to make it a habit. If you have been doing the opposite for more than 32 days that is your currently ingrained habit. It is harder to break a habit and replace it with a new one. But it is not impossible.
However it is important to remember during this time. If you or I or anyone has slips in this new routine, we shouldn't see it as more than that. It is a slip—a blip in the development of a new habit. It is not a total failure. And those blips don't make any of us total failures.
Work on that and Write On!

It's difficult not to agree with 100% of what Smith mentions in this video.

MAB21L2, a vertebrate member of the Male-abnormal 21 family, modulates BMP signaling and interacts with SMAD1

BMC Cell Biology 2004, 5:48 doi:10.1186/1471-2121-5-48Published: 21 December 2004
Through in vivo loss-of-function studies, vertebrate members of the Male abnormal 21 (mab-21) gene family have been implicated in gastrulation, neural tube formation and eye morphogenesis. Despite mounting evidence of their considerable importance in development, the biochemical properties and nature of MAB-21 proteins have remained strikingly elusive. In addition, genetic studies conducted in C. elegans have established that in double mutants mab-21 is epistatic to genes encoding various members of a Transforming Growth Factor beta (TGF-beta) signaling pathway involved in the formation of male-specific sensory organs.
Through a gain-of-function approach, we analyze the interaction of Mab21l2 with a TGF-beta signaling pathway in early vertebrate development. We show that the vertebrate mab-21 homolog Mab21l2 antagonizes the effects of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (BMP4) overexpression in vivo, rescuing the dorsal axis and restoring wild-type distribution of Chordin and Xvent2 transcripts in Xenopus gastrulae. We show that MAB21L2 immunoprecipitates in vivo with the BMP4 effector SMAD1, whilst in vitro it binds SMAD1 and the SMAD1-SMAD4 complex. Finally, when targeted to an heterologous promoter, MAB21L2 acts as a transcriptional repressor.
Our results provide the first biochemical and cellular foundation for future functional studies of mab-21 genes in normal neural development and its pathological disturbances.

One of Apple's longest serving Australian resellers has been asked to change its online advertising strategy so as not to compete with the vendor's continuing push into direct sales.
Sydney-based reseller MacToFront, based in the inner-city enclave of Ultimo, has sold and serviced Apple products for some 15 years, according to proprietor David Macintosh.
But he fears that his business - like many other authorised Apple dealers - is at risk of having its status revoked by the Apple as the vendor continues its push towards direct sales.
Apple's contract with Tier II resellers states that the vendor has the right to arbitrarily review a reseller's authorisation to sell its products at any time and without explanation, with only 30 days notice, particularly if resellers sell into various named markets or via online sales, catalogue sales (mail order) or telesales/telemarketing.
MacToFront and many other reseller partners have resisted this pressure, engaging in online sales regardless. Indeed, Apple's largest consumer partners - the likes of JB HiFi and Harvey Norman - routinely include Apple products in massive catalogue sales campaigns, while nearly all Tier 1 resellers sell online.
Macintosh has also used paid Google search links (AdWords) so effectively that Apple's marketing team demanded he remove certain words.
The matter between Apple and MactoFront, Small insisted, had "nothing to do with Adwords" but he was not prepared to discuss the conflict any further. Nor would he confirm whether MacToFront was, in Apple's eyes, still an 'authorised reseller'.
"All I can say is that any Apple authorised reseller is not restricted in terms of using Apple terms in their ads," he said again.
Macintosh said he has received no formal notification from Apple about a pending suspension of his authorised status, and has been working to improve his relationship with the vendor. He assumed that his use of Google Adwords had simply "ruffled a lot of feathers" at Apple Australia.
Macintosh doesn't feel that Apple "defines these [online sales] activities as being definitively prohibited."
"They don't exactly say that we can't.. but they are [used as] examples... So as we all do [engage in online sales and marketing] - it gives [Apple] grounds to cancel our contract with 30 days notice."
He claimed to have little choice but to use online channels with gusto.
As the vendor opens up more of its own Apple stores and invests further in its own online sales capability, Macintosh said the company is becoming "A, our supplier, and B, our competitor."
"The lines between can come into conflict," he said. "Apple is trying to dictate what markets we sell into and how we can sell our products."
While he agrees that Apple has the right to maintain value in their brand and products, he saw little other choice but to market aggressively and offer discounts. The margins available selling some Apple products are "down to sub-5 percent levels," he said.
"Even when we drop below RRP, Apple will come through and undercut us."

Israelis are heading to the polls Tuesday to elect a new government. Current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to win a third term.
Conservative and religious parties are expected to form the bulk of Netanyahu's government. Dominating the right is the joint party of Netanyahu and Avigdor Leiberman called Likud-Beiteinu.
"There are reports that in regions that have traditionally been Likud strongholds, turnout has been lower than the national average," Netanyahu noted. "I therefore call on all generations of Likud voters to drop everything and go vote."
CBN News Middle East Bureau Chief Chris Mitchell has more on the election outcome, on CBN Newswatch, Jan. 22.
The prime minister is hoping to bring some centrists in as well. The Jewish state is facing one of the most difficult periods in its history. It's increasingly isolated in the international community over the Palestinian Authority situation. It also faces a threat from Iran's quest for nuclear weapons Israelis are also facing a declining economy and budget deficits.

Parenting Advice
Wheedling vs Discipline
July 16th, 2013
Several years ago, I asked around 500 people in Des Moines, "Raise your hand if your mom never yelled." About 300 hands went up. Then I asked, "Raise your hand if you're a mom with children living with you in the home and you've never yelled." Not one hand went up. They thought it was funny. It's not.

Memories vary in their durability even when encoding conditions apparently remain constant. We investigated whether, under these circumstances, memory durability is nonetheless associated with variation in the neural activity elicited during encoding. Event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging data were acquired while volunteers semantically classified visually presented words. Using the "remember/know" procedure, memory for one-half of the words was tested after 30 min and for the remaining half after 48 h. In several regions, including left hippocampus and left dorsal inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), activity at encoding differed depending on whether items were later recollected regardless of study–test delay. Delay-selective effects were also evident, however. Recollection after 48 h was associated with enhanced activity in bilateral ventral IFG, whereas recollection after 30 min was associated with greater fusiform activity. Thus, there is a relationship between the neural activity elicited by an event as it is encoded and the durability of the resulting memory representation.

"Innovation, Integration, and Intervention"
Addressing the Unique Challenges of Families in Supervised VisitationThe 2015 SVN Annual Conference will feature plenary sessions and workshops that address how trauma, mental health, and substance abuse impact our work in supervised visitation. Workshops and plenary sessions will focus on how to best serve the unique needs of these families and offer innovative approaches to enhancing our services for all participants
Plenary SpeakersChristina Meredith spent her childhood in Florida. However, unlike the sunny Florida weather, her youth was met with abuse and instability at home. Shortly after she finished 8th grade Christina and her seven brothers and sisters were placed in the care of family and friends to escape the abuse they had been exposed to. As a teen Christina excelled in athletics, but despite her high school achievements, she was continuing to suffer abuse at home and was eventually entered into the Florida Foster Care System. She remained in foster care until she was 18, when she aged out of the system. With no money or family support, Christina was homeless and living out of her car.
During that time, she made her way across the U.S and settled in California hoping to start a career as a fitness model. While struggling to make her way in the industry, a friend pointed her in the direction of the Ms. California pageant. With the support of local businesses, friends and even other women competing, Christina entered the pageant. Much to her delight, she claimed the crown and her dream of helping young girls who have ben abused and are passing through the foster care system had a platform.
Turning adversity and misfortune into hope and resilience, Christina has made it her mission to help other young women who face her same adversities. She is now a nationally recognized speaker and a well known advocate for foster youth. Knowing first hand what young women face when aging out of the foster care system and as a survivor of domestic abuse is what inspired Christina to establish her non-profit Strength For Our Daughters.
Ricky Roberts III is the author of four books, YOU, What Really Matters, Where Did the Gift Go, Awakening the New You: A Path to Transformation, youth advocate, speaker, and visionary. Roberts believes that everyone matters and deserves to know it. This belief inspired him to cre- ate YOU ARE VALUED a nonprofit organization that inspires youth (all people for that matter) to see the value in who they are, and appreciate the same in others. Roberts has the privilege to connect with 1000's of youth and adults, on a yearly basis, in a wide variety of settings from maximum-security detention centers to national conferences to middle and high school class- rooms.
As a young person Roberts was exposed to, and experienced, abuse on many levels, which im- pacted his perception of love, and his self worth. After being stabbed nine-times at the age of 17, Roberts let go of his role as a victim, and began to ask: how he can use everything he has experi- enced to impact others in a positive way.

I'm hoping this is okay to put this in this forum... but hoping someone maybe in my same boat can help?
This is my second cycle charting. My hubby and I started trying in June of this year and I got pregnant that first cycle. Then I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks in August. I have very regular periods, typically cycle is 30-31 days. These past 2 cycles after the miscarriage were 29 days long. We started trying again last month, and no go so far. Here is my chart:
With the breast cancer. I was diagnosed last October, stage 1A. BRCA- and ER/PR+. I had a unilateral mastectomy and reconstruction. No chemo or radiation. I'm not on any medication whatsoever. Haven't been since March. I only take a prenatal vitamin and fish oil, and I just started supplementing with B6 and B12. The only thing I've found odd and don't quite understand is... before the miscarriage I was using OPK's and they would be positive for one morning and one night (or vice versa) and now they're positive for like 3 days in a row (for the past two months anyway). And the past two cycles I've spotted a few days before I got my period, which apparently could be indicative of low progesterone. Wondering if my body is still trying to regulate itself, or maybe this was my issue all along and that's what caused my miscarriage in the first place.
I had my Oncologist test my hormones in January and my midwife checked them following my miscarriage in August and both of them seem to think everything looks fine. My midwife DID say my progesterone was very low then, but it was right after the miscarriage so she said it wasn't odd for it to be like that then. I have an appointment with my Oncologist next Friday. I just want all my bases covered and to ATTEMPT to be one step ahead instead of trying and trying and tryinggg for a baby, and my body be sabotaging the whole thing.
Anyone have any thoughts, helpful suggestions or insight?

Hi! I'm sure you found the answer you were looking for, because I see you are 8 weeks along. Congrats!!!
Where did you get the info that spotting for a few days before your period could mean low progesterone? I'd love to read up on that.
I had a miscarriage last month. I now suspect low progesterone, because I am 33 and was breastfeeding at the time. I spotted for a few days before my period the month before my conception that led to miscarriage. That was the first time that had ever happened to me. I thought I had been pregnant that month but never got a positive HPT. It never occurred to me that my hormones might be off.
Oddly enough, when I was threatening miscarriage, 8 vials of blood were drawn from me. But they never checked my progesterone. So I have no lab confirmation that it was/is low.
I have been lightly spotting for about 24 hours now, and it is possible that I could be pregnant again. According to my ovulation symptoms, I am about 12 dpo today. I purchased some natural progesterone cream at my favorite health food store today. Would it do my body any harm to use it if I am not pg or if I do not have low progesterone?
Thanks for any help! I wish you luck with your pregnancy, and congratulations on kicking cancer out!

Hey, thanks!!
I got my info from another mothering.com lady. If you want to look up the thread under my profile, you can read a little there. She told me that spotting before your period points to falling progesterone levels. It made sense to me, and I had always had a suspicion I had that anyway. I started supplementing with an extra 50 mg of vitamin B6 and 150 mg of B12 along with my regular prenatal and fish oils. Within one month, I went from spotting for 4 days before my period, to spotting 1/2 a day, to my BFP the next month!! Amazing to me. I was also on the BCP for almost 10 years straight (I've been off for about 5 years now) and that is also linked to lower levels of B6, so I knew that was my problem.
I asked my then MW about the B6 and progesterone and she had never heard of the two being linked, but I just researched a lot and it is definitely linked. And since B vitmains are water soluble, you pee them out if you have too much anyway. As for the progesterone levels being tested, I'd heard lotssss of ladies on here talking about CD21 testing. So I pushed and pushed and pushed until my MW agreed to do it (heck, what would a bloodtest hurt HER anyway). It ended up the month that we did that bloodwork, I got my BFP anyway. But I continue to take my B6 and B12 faithfully and really think that changed everything for me. Some ladies need more of it, some do the natural progesterone cream (I never did that myself). You can definitely research the NPC on here and find lots of info on it. I would honestly really push your Dr to do the CD21 testing. It's just one little bloodtest. Do you chart? That helped me to learn a lot about my cycle and body temp. I knew when my body temp dropped, my progesterone was dropping and I was going to get my period.

Actually, I charted faithfully from Oct '05 - Oct '6, when I got my first BFP for my oldest. My youngest was a happy whoops! This time, I have followed my body's signals, checked CM, mood, sex drive, etc. I can tell when I ovulate, but I never thought about temping AFTER ovulation. I will dust of that bbt thermometer and start doing that.
Also, I have been on prenatals and a great B-complex faithfully since my miscarriage. Hoping it will do me some good!
BTW, it is my period! :( Thanks for your help!

sweet little one in Heaven ~ about 7 weeks 3 days ~ 12-28-11
Sorry about AF, no fun. Yeah, def dust off your thermometer. It's a painless and easy way to just check yourself. If you look at my chart, you can see my temps started dropping off at CD11 before I started taking the B6 and B12. I would say maybe if you're still spotting, maybe try to ditch the B12 complex and just try to take a B6 and B12 separately (they're really small. About 1/3 the size of an Advil). I only say that because check your B12 complex to see how much extra B6 is actually in it. It's usually not all thatttt much (but it's definitely better than nothing!) but I believe you usually need to take at leastttt and extra 50 mg of the B6 to make a difference (I think many women do up to 200 mg extra if that isn't working gradually increasing until they see an impovement). I personally just started with the smallest dose I could find, and it definitely helped for me. It may not be your issue, but it definitely won't hurt you. I kinda felt like it helped me when I felt muchhhhh better within a week or so of taking the extra B6 and B12. Usually you don't feel a difference or any extra energy in taking it unless you actually have some sort of deficiency. And I took the B12 because it helps with the absorption of the B6 (which is also already in the B complex vitamin... just a bit more of it when it's separate). Hope I helped you some! You aren't breastfeeding anymore, right?

Here is the B-complex I'm taking.
It has
VITAMIN B6 - 50 mcg (2500%)
VITAMIN B12 - 250 mcg (4166%)
plus folic acid, vitamin C and more. That plus what is in my prenatal (basic pink pill) should be enough to start off, right? I am expecting a new prenatal to be shipped tomorrow... New Chapter Organics Perfect Prenatal. I just noticed it only has 5 mg. Maybe I could get a separate B-6 pills and take all three? Thanks for your help.
I'll look up that thread you were talking about and try to make more sense of this.
No on the breastfeeding. I pretty much cut him off when I was threatening miscarriage. He only nursed at night and once in awhile if he hurt himself or something during the day. I did nurse him one night about 2 weeks after the miscarriage, kind of a "one more last time" sort of thing. He still asks for mommy milk. :( And I am still lactating. I know this because I try squeezing a little out every once in awhile to see. Maybe I just need to give it a little more time to dry up before attempting again. Honestly, I figured it would have already dried up. At least I don't have problems lactating.. count your blessings, right?

Just wanted to say thanks again. I read through that thread and found her answers very helpful! And I teared up a little when you showed your BFP!!! I hope your pregnancy and delivery go smoothly and that you have a healthy LO!

Oh, I think that sounds like a perfect start. I really only know what worked best for me, but you can definitely research more on here and find better answers. As for the breastfeeding thing, I don't know much about it (I'm a first time Mom! ) but if you comment on my other thread (with a similar title) I talked a lot with a lovely name Jaimee on here, and she was most helpful and I think she may be able to help you. Here is the thread, you can just chime in! She would know much better than me how that effects your progesterone levels and all that goodness.

The LaRue County Board of Adjustments denied three of four requests for conditional use permits during a July 27 meeting.
A resident may ask for special permission to operate a business on property that is not zoned business. The board hears the case and if it approves the request, may stipulate certain provisions on the conditional use permit.
Adjoining property owners must be notified of the BOA meeting date.
A group representing LaRue County will be on hand Thursday when the U.S Mint unveils the third in a series of four 2009 Abraham Lincoln bicentennial pennies.
The coin depicting Lincoln's professional life in Illinois will be unveiled Thursday at the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Ill. Community leaders and tourism representatives left Hodgenville on Wednesday to be on hand for the ceremony.
The second coin, representing Lincoln's years in Indiana, was rolled out May 15. It was preceded by the Feb. 12 presentation of the cabin penny in Hodgenville.
Several Fort Knox Federal Credit Union employees and board members introduced themselves to LaRue County residents at brief groundbreaking program and reception Friday.
President and CEO Bill Rissel said construction will begin immediately at 299 Lincoln Drive across from Hodgenville Elementary School. The property, purchased from Carl Howell Jr. and Sharon A. Howell, sold for $265,000.
Carolyn Flanders Drake, executive vice president and a life-long LaRue County resident, said the new office should be complete by May.
Hopes of establishing a lithium-ion battery research center and production facility in Glendale lost power Wednesday when federal development dollars went elsewhere.
The National Alliance for Advanced Transportation Batteries consortium picked the industrial site along Interstate 65 and Kentucky 222. Their announcement in April included the prospect of 2,000 new jobs but was contingent on receiving Department of Energy funding. The not-for-profit NAATBatt group had requested between $300 and $400 million.
A clothing closet outreach is being organized by First Baptist Church and Parkway Baptist Church. These churches invite other community churches to become involved by donating gently used clothing. Tentatively, collection will be at First Baptist gym prior to distribution. Distribution will be once each quarter to students and families that indicate a need.
A meeting is planned for 7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 11, at First Baptist on Tonieville Road in Hodgenville.
All interested churches and individuals are invited to attend.
For more information, call 358-3193.
Twenty sealed indictments were opened in court Monday. A dozen people face charges ranging from drug trafficking to cultivation of marijuana.
A former Magnolia man has been ordered to return $78,482.36 to the Kentucky State Treasury after being found guilty of welfare fraud in LaRue Circuit Court.
Robert Caughron, 37, who now lives in Salesville, Ohio, was sentenced to two years, suspended and probated for five years. He also was ordered to begin making payments of $100 per month to the treasury department beginning in September.

Take off the polarizer and shoot another roll with the 50/1.4. Use all apertures too. And don't expect a 1960's-vintage lens to be tack-sharp at F1.4. All fast, normal lenses from that era will show some spherical aberration, coma, etc, when shot wide-open. Not that that's always a bad thing. The "soft" look can make for some nice portraits.

Few developers make games natively for Linux. Thus Linux users are forced to find workarounds to play hits like Diablo III. Now they've discovered a popular Linux program may be tripping up Blizzard's anti-cheating software.
At issue is the program Wine, often used by the Linux OS to run Windows-compatible programs. Wine is widely considered to be an emulator but it's not quite the same. Instead of creating a "virtual machine" it uses various replacements for and substitutes various aspects of the Linux operating system to create a Windows-friendly environment. Some theorize this and other factors such as custom OS and Wine configurations may be triggering false positives in Blizzard's software.
The situation has ignited an enormous firestorm on the Internet and dragged Blizzard directly into the Internet's version of the Console Wars. Blizzard has stated that anybody they've banned has been caught cheating but are blocked from publishing specific examples by company policy.
This isn't the first time Wine left a bad taste in Blizzard's mouth: World of Warcraft players had a similar problem six years ago.

Former Gopher athlete and University of Minnesota supporter Bob McNamara died at the age of 82 on Sunday, July 20.
The university announced McNamara's death on Monday. The school says McNamara died after a long illness on Sunday night.
McNamara was an All-American football player for the Gophers from 1951 to 1954. He also played two seasons with the Gopher basketball team, earning a letter in 1953.
After his time with the Gophers, McNamara continued playing football with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the Canadian Football League and later two seasons with the Denver Broncos in the AFL.
McNamara was also a generous supporter of University of Minnesota athletics. He and his wife, Annette, played a large role in the construction of TCF Bank Stadium, Baseline Tennis Center, Siebert Field and numerous other facilities on campus.
The McNamara Academic Center located in the Bierman Field Athletic Building was named in honor of Bob and his brother Richard "Pinky" McNamara, who also played football for the Gophers. The center is used by more-than 750 student-athletes daily to help achieve academic success.

Sounders chasing RSL for second spot in the West
TUKWILA - Wednesday: Real Salt Lake (17-11-4; 55 points) at Seattle (14-7-10; 52 points)
Time: 7 p.m.
Where: CenturyLink Field
Radio: 97.3 FM
Club leaders: For RSL: G 17 Alvaro Saborio; A 9, Javier Morales; S 80, Saborio; SOG 39, Saborio; GAA 1.10 Nick Rimando. For Seattle: G 14, Eddie Johnson; A 13, Mauro Rosales; S 113, Fredy Montero; SOG 42, Montero; GAA 0.74, Michael Gspurning.
Head to head: RSL leads 3-2-3 overall and 2-1-1 in Seattle. Salt Lake also eliminated the Sounders from the playoffs last season an in aggregate-score series. This season, RSL won 1-0 on May 12 in Seattle, and the clubs played to a scoreless draw July 4 in Utah.
Notes: Salt Lake is 4-1 over its last five games, while Seattle is 2-1-2. .. The clubs combined for one goal over their first two matches this season. ... When scoring first, Seattle is 13-0-3, while RSL is 14-1. ... Seattle is second and RSL third in goals-allowed per game. The Sounders have gone 240 minutes without being scored upon. ... Gspurning leads MLS in goals-against average. Rimando is third in wins (16) and shutouts (11). ... Seven players are out or questionable due to duty with their national teams: Johnson, Mario Martinez and Adam Johansson for Seattle; and Saborio, Rimando, Kyle Beckerman and Will Johnson for RSL. ... Saborio is second in the league in goals scored. RSL is 1-2 without him this season. ... RSL has an all-time record of 5-14-8 on artificial turf, but is 2-1 this season. ... Ten RSL players have been with the club five seasons or longer. ... Montero and Osvaldo Alonso are one caution away from yellow-card suspension.
Quotable: "We were unlucky, I thought, in the first game not to get a goal against them. .. We've got to get our offense on track on the flanks and get behind them. If we can do that, then we can have more success." – Sounders coach Sigi Schmid on his team's failure to score in the first two games against RSL.
Next: FC Dallas visits CenturyLink Field at 6 p.m. Sunday.
We're No. 2?
You don't often see fans matching from a stadium, proudly waving a pair of fingers in the air.
They don't make many movies about a team's stretch run toward runner-up status.
Second place in the MLS Western Conference is at stake Wednesday night when Real Salt Lake visits Seattle. And coach Sigi Schmid seems to have convinced his Sounders that it is a prize worth winning.
"Certainly, if you can grab first, you try and grab first; but that opportunity slipped away," Schmid said Tuesday. "So what's important now is to get us in the best playoff position we can."
That is second place, because San Jose already has clinched the top spot in the West. Second is currently held by Salt Lake, but a win by the Sounders tonight would move them even with RSL in the points race, with one game in hand. A loss would put Seattle six points behind with only six more points available as their regular season concludes with a home match Sunday against FC Dallas and a road date Oct. 28 at Los Angeles.
The eventual second-place finisher will be rewarded with home-field advantage in the deciding match of the opening two-game, aggregate-score playoff series against the No. 3 finisher. Second place also increases the chance of hosting rights for the MLS Cup, which this season will be played on the home pitch of the higher-seeded finalist.
Despite the stakes, Seattle and Salt Lake go into this match with key players out or questionable due to duty with their national teams. Among them are each club's leading scorer: Alvaro Saborio (17 goals) for Salt Lake, and Eddie Johnson (14) for Seattle.
Perhaps equally problematic for Seattle is the absence of defender Adam Johansson (Sweden), which further weakens a back line ravaged by injuries to Leo Gonzalez (hamstring), Jhon Kennedy Hurtado (facial fracture) and perhaps Patrick Ianni, who left Tuesday training early to be checked for an undetermined health issue.

Kentucky students beat test norms
The results of a national science test show that Kentucky's eighth-graders continue to have higher scores than their peers outside the state.
The Kentucky Department of Education announced the results of the 2011 National Assessment of Educational Progress on Thursday.
Last spring, eighth-graders at North and South middle schools were chosen to participate in this study, said Jinger Carter, director of accountability and assessment for the Henderson County school district.
The test was administered by people outside of the local district.
This national exam provides results for major demographic groups.
Individual district, school and student results were not released for confidentiality reasons, the state Department of Education said.
But here's a brief breakdown of the scores in Kentucky and how they compare to the nation based on a grading scale of 0 to 300:
2011: Kentucky: 157; Nation: 151.
2009: Kentucky: 156; Nation: 149.2005: Kentucky: 153; Nation: 147.2000: Kentucky: 150; Nation: 148.
However, new science frameworks were used starting in 2009. That means scores in 2000 and 2005 cannot be compared to scores in 2009 and 2011.
Previously, fourth-graders have also been tested in science through the National Assessment of Educational Progress.
But that didn't happen in 2011 so that the National Assessment Governing Board, which sets policy for the NAEP, could focus on statistical linking studies.

Now there are two Hair Systems out for Daz Studio 4.5 ..which one do you use ?
Looka at ma Hair or Girabaldi Express ??
There are several threads on the forums here on both of these plugins. I'm afraid that you will have to do a bit of reading to see which one will suit you best.
Perhaps you should give an idea of what you are trying to accomplish with a hair plugin, and what you are going to use it for? As far as I know, both plugins work in a similar way, and the end results are much the same.

Twinview problems : DVI is great VGA is blurred (again. xorg.conf was truncated.)

Re: Twinview problems : DVI is great VGA is blurred (again. xorg.conf was truncated.)
Just how blurred is it? You should expect DVI to give a noticeably sharper picture with an LCD monitor than VGA can, especially with a high resolution display, afterall that's the main point of using DVI.
When you've got an LCD hooked up via VGA you have the video card generating digital data, converting it to an analogue signal for sending over the cable, and the monitor converting it back to digital information again. There's inevitably some loss of fidelity in this process, though using a high quality VGA cable will help a little as Xevious mentions. With a DVI connection the signal remains digital throughout and so there is no blurring.
I have a Dell 2405FPW, and at one point I set it up with cloned inputs over VGA and DVI just to be able to switch between the two with the same image on the screen and see how much better DVI was. I was expecting a sharper image when I finally got the hardware to drive this monitor over DVI instead of VGA, and I was very pleased when I saw the difference
Basically this isn't a Dell issue, or an NVIDIA issue, it's a technology issue. VGA outputs were designed for CRTs whereas DVI outputs were designed for LCDs, VGA is always going to give a lower quality picture on an LCD.

First Edition, First Printing of the Monumental Masterpiece of Modern American Literature, in a Handsome, Unrestored Example of the Original First Printing Dust JacketF. Scott Fitzgerald. The Great Gatsby. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1925. First edition, first printing, with all first printing points: "chatter" on p. 60, line 16; "northern" on p. 119, line 22; "it's" on p. 165, line 16; "away" on p. 165, line 29; "sick in tired" on p. 205, lines 9-10; and "Union Street station" on p. 211, lines 7-8. Octavo. 218 pages. Original, unrestored first printing dust jacket designed by Francis Cugat, with the lowercase "j" in "jay Gatsby" on the back panel hand-corrected in ink. A fabulous example of the book, with bright spine gilt, and only light edge wear to the cloth and mild cocking to the spine and a small inked price stamp to the rear free endpaper. The original dust jacket has a few small chips, tiny tears, and some loss to the edges and spine ends, affecting, only slightly, the "T" in "The" at the beginning of the title at both the spine head and front panel. A short horizontal tear across the spine of the jacket just touches the top part of the word "GATSBY." A triangular-shaped area near the middle of the spine is missing. The piece of the jacket spine towards the spine tail, where "SCRIBNERS" is printed, has only recently become detached, but is still present. The spine folds are a bit weak. It is a somewhat fragile, but mostly complete, original, and unsophisticated dust jacket. Overall, it is a wonderful copy of one of the true rarities in American literature, a book Cyril Connolly described in 1966 as, "a prose poem of delight and sadness which has by now introduced two generations to the romance of America, as Huckleberry Finn and Leaves of Grass introduced those before it." Bruccoli A11.1.a. Connolly, The Modern Movement, p. 48.

Re: Apply to PenFed now or later?
You'd really want to try for a Penfed CC with your EQ FICO in the 700s. They are fairly conservative. I opened a share account with FICOs in the 600s and got approved. They'll pull EQ. I tried for a CC with my EQ FICO around 750 and was turned down for high util (around 20% then) and too many inquiries.

Squeaky clean and renovated a few years ago.
See also Restaurant tip.
Check the prices on reservation as their website is a little outdated.
Well, the great view is on the Markt (central square). Hotel is right next to the Town Hall.

De Drie Scheepkens B&B: A hidden gem
For our visit to Bergen op Zoom we had to travel by train. So we were looking for accommodation on walking distance from the railway station as well as the main sights in the city.
After a lot of surfing on the internet we were very happy to find "De Drie Scheepkens Bed and Breakfast". It is located right in the heart of Bergen op Zoom, just 200 metres from the Grote Markt (the main square of the city) and a little bit more than 5 minutes from the railway station.
The Engelsestraat, referring to English merchants, is a quiet street, lined with nicely restored monumental houses.
The B&B has just three rooms, one of them on the second floor and two others on the third floor (there is no elevator). It is not allowed to park cars on the streets around the B&B, but they have a (paid) place available; otherwise you must use one of the (paid) parking lots a bit further away.
We did sleep in the very spacious Superior Suite on the second floor, which had a very good bed and en suite a beautiful bathroom with even a Jacuzzi. The toilet is situated right next on the course. The room has all necessary amenities.
Making a more or less last minute booking we got this room by paying the rates of the other smaller rooms.
Breakfast is served in the breakfast room and was – as expected in the Netherlands – very Dutch, which means various, extensive and tasteful. It was every morning an excellent start of the day.
There is also a nice 'city garden' with some seats for relaxing or just reading a book. During our stay the hosts of De Drie Scheepkens organized a barbecue for the guests (as well as for the guests of another B&B in town).
The location of the B&B; nearby the Grote Markt and all the main sights of Bergen op Zoom.
Although located in the city center it is an absolute quiet neighbourhood.

My friend Radhika (karma_kola), who is back now in delhi for a few weeks stays in Bergen op zoom.
