text: After last week's impressive 9.8 rating, THE SIMPSONS slipped this past week, finishing in 41st place with an 8.2 rating/12 share. Its Fox Sunday night animation cohorts, KING OF THE HILL and FUTURAMA, took #73 and #79 respectively. KING garnered a 5.5 rating/9 share and FUTURAMA grabbed a 4.6 rating/8 share. The rest of the primetime animated fare, CELEBRITY DEATHMATCH, GARY & MIKE and THE PJS finished in the cellar all tied for 111th place, with a 1.5 rating/3 share. DEATHMATCH and GARY & MIKE both tied for the lowest ratings of the week for UPN and THE PJS only beat out the WB's live-action special 20 TEENS, which ran on Sunday after THE PJS 7:30 airing. These ratings and shares represent primetime TV in the U.S. on broadcast networks for the week starting Monday, February 5 through Sunday, February 11, 2001. A rating is the percentage of households that tuned into the program in the entire universe of TV homes. The universe estimate for the 2000-2001 television season is 102.2 million TV homes. Each rating point represents one percent of that universe, or 1.022 million TV homes. Translation: THE SIMPSONS, with an 8.6 rating, was viewed in just over 8.78 million (8.6 x 1.022 million) households. A share is the percentage of homes with TVs being used at that given time.

Schools for Sustainability:
The Mission
Schools for Sustainability establishes and operates self-supporting high schools that teach and model proficiency in integrated water remediation, renewable energies, food production, use of green building materials, and waste management to foster sustainable economic development in under-resourced regions.
What We Are Doing Now
Schools for Sustainability has partnered with Arcadia University to take a group of 15 first year and transfer students to the Dominican Republic this spring. Once in the Dominican Republic, we will spend 4 days doing service projects in Monte Plata (Community Surveying, Aquaponics or Organic Farming).
Project #1 – Community Surveys:
One group will be tasked to seek community input in school procedures and operations. The purpose of this survey will be to ensure we create a school that will benefit Dominicans, as they know what it is they need. While the whole class will be introduced to qualitative research methods, this group will spend time reading, writing and thinking more about how to do qualitative research in the Dominican Republic.
Project #2 – Aquaponics:
The second group will work with local experts to build an aquaponics unit that will be utilized by Schools for Sustainability. The students will conduct research prior to departure on the logistical aspects, as well as the research on the impact on water conservation, and they will also be writing a brief literature review based on the research in this area.
Project #3 – Organic Farming:
Students in this group can run "tests" for the design team in order to determine the best location for the farm. The students can work alongside horticulturalists and permaculture experts. They will learn what a site needs in order to be a "good farm." Students in this group will do most of their learning by interviewing horticulturalists and permaculture experts prior to the trip to learn what kinds of methods are used for a test run.

After being more visible as a television host last year, Richard Gutierrez wants to "go back to basics" and focus on acting in 2012.
"I want to go back to basics this 2012. I want to go back to acting and do projects where I can showcase my acting capabilities. I miss acting," he said at his contract signing with Viva Entertainment (which will now manage the endorsements of the Kapuso actor and siblings Ruffa and Raymond Gutierrez) on Wednesday, January 25.
Richard added, "For 2012, I want to challenge myself again and I want to reinvent myself again and do more challenging characters."
Last year, Richard starred in "Captain Barbell: Ang Pagbabalik" and hosted the documentary "Oras Na." He is also the host of "Survivor Philippines: Celebrity Couples Showdown," which is currently airing.
New leading ladies
According to Richard, his next project with the Kapuso network will be a primetime action-drama soap opera.
"It'll be different from all my fantaseryes. It's something new. It'll be very exciting," he said.
Richard added he'll be paired up with leading ladies he has not worked with before.
"It'll be a big project, of course, primetime ng GMA. And, of course, ang primetime scene ngayon is very competitive. So, you know, we will try to create a great show and a big show," he said. "Galing ako sa long vacation and I'm just ready to work."
During the contract signing, Viva's Vic del Rosario said he wants Richard to do a movie with Viva talents Sarah Geronimo or Anne Curtis.
To this, Richard said: "I want to work with everyone here in Viva. I'm sure lahat ng fans, gusto yan. I'm sure lahat ng manonood ng pelikulang Pilipino gustong mangyari rin yan. At ako talaga, I'm very excited na talagang mangyari yung mga projects with Viva. Hopefully, soon."
No distractions
With all the new projects and developments in his career, Richard feels 2012 will be a "very big year."
"Right now, I'm really just focused on my work. 2012, I feel, will be a very big year for me. I'm staying focused. No more distractions. Not only for my career but I'm also doing the Ironman triathlon at the end of the year. So I'm also focused on my fitness this year," he said.
The Ironman is the country's top triathlon event which will be held in Cebu in August of this year.
Do matters of the heart take a back seat too?
"Yung puso ko, medyo pahinga muna. Kasi kailangang i-develop muna for triathlon," he quipped.
"Sports muna. I married to triathlon right now. I'll focus on that," he explained.
The Kapuso star is known for being mum about his love life. But this time, Richard said, he's just really focused on other things.
"You guys know me naman. I like things private. Pero, sa 2012, nga, for me, no more distractions, just focus sa work," he said. "Mahahati yung time ko this year sa work saka sa training. It's a very exciting year and I'm looking forward to it."

Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham
|See also: The Tudors Cast | The Tudors Episode Guide
Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham as played by Steven Waddington
| Born February 3, 1478 - executed May 17, 1521 by order of Henry VIII
Character's backstory: The eldest son of Sir Henry Stafford, 2nd Duke of Buckingham and Lady Katherine Woodville. Through his father he was descended from Edward III's sons, John of Gaunt and Thomas of Woodstock, and his mother was a sister of Edward IV's queen consort, Elizabeth Woodville who afterwards married Henry VII's uncle, Jasper Tudor, Duke of Bedford. Therefore, the Duke was related to King Henry in more than a few ways. Edward's father was attainted and executed for rebelling against King Richard III on 2nd November 1483. However, the attainder was reversed on Henry VII's accession to the throne and Buckingham was placed under the wardship of Lady Margaret Beaufort (Henry VIII's grandmother).
[See: ANCESTORS of the King]
In 1495, Buckingham was made a Knight of the Garter and he was given many ceremonial roles at court. This continued after the accession of Henry VIII with Buckingham acting as Lord High Steward at the King's coronation in 1509 where he also carried the crown. He was made a member of the Privy Council in 1509 and also fought in the campaign against the French in 1513.
Through the marriages of his children, Buckingham had wide connections within the nobility making him a potentially powerful political force. This resulted in him becoming a leader for the disaffected nobles who were unhappy with the growing influence at court of low-born men, in particular Cardinal Wolsey.
Henry VIII was both jealous and suspicious of Buckingham due to his wealth, lands and royal blood. In 1521, Buckingham was arrested and tried for treason. He was accused of listening to prophecies of the King's death and his succession to the throne and for expressing an intention to kill the King. The Duke was tried before 17 peers although the charges were probably false and Henry had already decided on the outcome. Buckingham was executed at Tower Hill on 17th May 1521 and was posthumously attainted in July 1523.
Gentility: Duke, Nobility
Position: Lord High Steward, Lord High Constable, Knight of the Garter
Personality type: a leader of the disaffected nobles excluded from high office.
Signature look: An impressive figure, Stafford has the look of a fighter about him. Stern, dark eyes.
Endearing trait(s):
Annoying trait(s): Pride of his royal bloodlines. Resented Cardinal Thomas Wolsey to his detriment.
*There is no historical evidence that Buckingham's hands had to be held out or that he did not die with dignity as the series depicts.

|Ambitious and Haughty But No Traitor
|Feb 10 2013, 2:29 PM EST by BanditQueen1
Thread started: Feb 10 2013, 2:29 PM EST Watch
Edward, third Duke of Buckingham was greatly ambitious and he liked to strut around and to show off as many of the older nobles did. He may have repeated the so called tale that his father had told him, but as a royal ward raised at court by Margaret Beaufort the King's Mother (Henry VII) he was part of the inner circle of the young Prince Henry (VIII) and was his companion. He was aware of the heritage of his family and so was King Henry.
At first he was on good terms with Henry VIII but fell out of allegations of affairs on the King's part and scandal concerning his wife and sister. But he regained high office and was Lord High Steward of the Kings Household. He was a good soldier and a good jouster and he was rewarded as a captain at the Battle of the Spurs 1513. He was a friend of Queen Catherine of Aragon, having met her on her arrival in England. He was the father in law of the Duke of Norfolk. Norfolk was upset when he condemned him for treason.
He may have had ambitions and he may have spoken about them openly and foolishly but he was not planning to remove or kill Henry VIII. He had a good claim to the throne but he was aware that Henry was now King although he did not have a male heir. It is said that he made an enemy of Cardinal Wolsey, spilling the handwashing water over him as the Cardinal insisted on Buckingham serving him as well as the king with the bowel. This was an insult to Buckingham and he was angry. He also lavishly decorated his home in a way that it actually outdid the King. He was Henry's second official at the F C of Gold 1520, so no treason here suspected.
Boasted he would kill Henry as father intended kill Richard III, so arrested on trumped up charges and despite public outcry he was executed May 1521 and attainer passed after death in July 1523. Why he was charged and executed not clear as it is doubtful he was a traitor: a loud mouth yes, traitor no.

|Was the Duke Innocent of Treason?
|Feb 7 2012, 6:16 PM EST by MsSquirrly
Thread started: Feb 7 2012, 4:51 PM EST Watch
Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham was raised by the father of Henry VIII, and practically adopted as a member of the family from the age of 5. Henry as a Prince and a young King knew him well and in the early years of his reign it is clear that he was in favour.
He was knighted, a Privy Councillor, Lord High Constable, an army captain and close to the king. He had a strong personality and he was very guarded of his pride and his family. He was also very popular, generous and rich. He was powerful and came from powerful and old noble and royal stock. His sister may have had an affair with Henry VIII in 1510, his daughter had an affair with William Compton, not Charles Brandon, and his eldest daughter was married to the Duke of Norfolk (2nd Duke, that is) He was the first person to welcome Catherine of Aragon to England and Catherine regarded him as a friend, pleading for him when he was accused of treason.
But was he guilty? Buckingham was ambitious and let his ambitions known, but he was accused by servants that were bribed by Cardinal Wolsey, who hated him. He made an enemy of Wolsey and he disliked 'new' men taking power from nobles. He talked about his fathers wish to do away with Richard III, but he was a child at the time and that was a good thing surely in Tudor eyes. He carried and bore royal coat of arms; he had some entitlement to do so. He was convicted on rumour and speculation and claims of listening to prophecy and acting on it. He may have had ambitions, should the Tudor line fail, but there was hardly any evidence against him, and he most probably had no ambitions beyond dreams. He was doing well under Henry; why would he in all honesty want to kill him?
Henry was childless, save Mary, so he may have feared for his throne and wanted to make a strong example that would bring the other nobles to heal. Fear, doubt, suspicion are all reasons to accuse an innocent man of treason.

Heidi Klum Invites Women To Take The CLEAR 7 Day Scalp & Hair Challenge
Superstar model, producer, television host and designer Heidi Klum unveiled her secret to strong, beautiful hair last year with the launch of CLEAR SCALP & HAIR BEAUTY THERAPY, and is now asking women everywhere to join her in the 7 Day Scalp & Hair Challenge for stronger, more beautiful hair in 7 days.
From frequent red carpet appearances to countless hours on set at photo shoots, Klum goes through rigorous daily styling that really takes a toll on her scalp and hair. To nourish her scalp for stronger, more beautiful hair, and to gear up for her next big event, Klum turned to the 7 Day Scalp & Hair Challenge. As part of the challenge, Klum is using CLEAR SCALP & HAIR BEAUTY THERAPY shampoo and conditioner daily before styling.
"In addition to daily styling, my hair is colored often which is tough on my scalp and hair," said Klum. "After using the CLEAR SCALP & HAIR BEAUTY THERAPY Damage & Color Repair shampoo and conditioner for seven days, my scalp and hair is nourished and strong, so I can create great styles. Because of these amazing results, I'm asking women everywhere to join me in the 7 Day Scalp & Hair Challenge, so they can experience it for themselves."

"Just like we moisturize and take care of our skin, our scalp needs to be nourished too," said hair care expert and CLEAR SCALP & HAIR THERAPY Celebrity Stylist Jen Atkin. "The CLEAR shampoos and conditioners are formulated to work at the scalp where it matters most. After all, a well-nourished scalp is the foundation for strong, beautiful hair. It's important that women take the 7 Day Challenge to see the results for themselves."

|Mississippi born Riley B. King began playing music on the streets of his native Indianola in the '40s, eventually moving to Memphis to pursue a career as a bluesman. He found a home as a DJ on legendary Memphis radio Station WDIA in the early '50s, a position he used to further his budding reputation as a guitarist/singer to be reckoned with. His on-air moniker, "the Beale Street Blues Boy" ultimately metamorphosed into his stage name. He spent the '50s cementing his legend as an energetic performer, playing with Johnny Ace and Bobby "Blue" Bland and on his own. His very modern, urban style was influenced not only by T-Bone Walker, but by jazz guitarist Charlie Christian. King's gestalt was miles away from the blues' rural beginnings, relying on witty, sophisticated lyrics and almost jazzy rhythms. His signature guitar style, as played on his trademark Gibson hollow-body "Lucille," combined quick vibrato with cutting, single-note lines and aggressively bent notes. His boisterous vocals, entertainment-value showmanship and gregarious personality made him beloved not just to blues aficionados, but to the larger pop audience.

Fourteen Thai students were released from Bangkok Remand Prison just before 6am on Wednesday, July 8. The release followed Tuesday's ruling by Thailand's military court refusing a police prosecutor's bid to extend their detention. The students, members of activist group the New Democracy Movement, were arrested on June 25 after organising a peaceful rally in Bangkok.They were charged with inciting unrest under section 116 of the Criminal Code. Human Rights Watch described the arrests as "arbitrary" and said they "demonstrate the military junta's unwillingness to ease its oppressive rule". The UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights on Tuesday called for the Thai government to immediately drop criminal charges against the students and urged " the Government to review its use of laws that limit freedom of expression and freedom of assembly in line with its obligations under international human rights law."

"We ordered the matching birthday invitations with these return address labels and loved them. They shipped quickly and are of great quality. Tiny Prints is awesome!"
"These came out really nice. Very pretty. They were easy to order, I just changed the font. They are bigger than I expected, but I didn't look at the dimensions ahead of time. Still fit on an envelope fine."
"This label is exactly how it looks on line. It's simple yet cute! It matches perfectly with the pink invitation for my daughter's birthday party!"
"I used this for my daughter's birthday invitations. I changed the font for her name (I think it was called Ana Cherie or Ana Claire) and it turned out so cute!"
"I gave these labels as a gift to my daughter. She graduated from Smith College and they reminded me of her graduation week end when the campus was lit with chinese lanterns. She loved them!"

TV-Out detection problem (DVI-HDMI)
Im having trouble with detecting my tv with my current graphic card.
My setup:
CPU: x2 3800
GFX: XFX 7950GT m570 (heatpipe version)
OS: WinXP SP2
DVI-HDMI cable: The brand is "AC" i dont really know much about it, its pretty good tho, paid 100$ for it. (If you think this is expencive, you should visit Norway :P)
So, ive used this system without problems for about 3 months now, it has worked perfectly.
But yesterday it didnt find my TV anymore, and i really cant understand why!
Ive tried diffrent force ware drivers without success, and now im beginning to become desperate! Ive even tried to setup a convert-on-the-fly program to stream h.264 movies to my xbox360, but my system couldnt handle it :P
Ive searched forums and read alot of diffrent solutions etc. to simular problems, but i havent been able to figure it out yet. This blows!
Things i have done:
-Tested 84.63 91.33 91.47 92.91 93.71 93.81 force ware drivers.
-xxxx reboots of both tv and pc.
-Tested force detect tv option. This does find a "HDTV" but when i try this it wont give me a picture (tried all the resolution stuff). I might add that it find this "HDTV" regardless if the cable to the tv is in or not :P
-Tested both HDMI1 and HDMI2 input on the tv.
-Tested both DVI out ports on my gfx card.
-Smashed my head in the wall and strangeled my cat.
Anyone have any idea whats wrong? Ill be on nV's irc channel tonight if anyone wanna do live support ^^
Re: TV-Out detection problem (DVI-HDMI)
I have a similar problem on my new Toshiba 37WLT66 though it has never actually worked from day 1.
Everything works via the VGA 'computer' input (though no BIOS screen) but when I try to connect DVI-HDMI I get nothing.
Like you I've tried other drivers and even another PC with different Gfx card but no joy.
My main PC has the Abit NF-M2 Nview board with Nvidia 6150 on board gfx.
next step ...
trying different DVI _ HDMI adapters and cables.
looking into the 'EDID' thing!
keep trying!
Re: TV-Out detection problem (DVI-HDMI)
Bump basically. I know this is quite a common problem but has anyone managed a fix on the windows drivers?
Re: TV-Out detection problem (DVI-HDMI)
Another bump, I have EXACTLY the same problem as stated in the first post :(
Re: TV-Out detection problem (DVI-HDMI)
Well, I found a solution for my issue... It was the cable, I bought a new one to test and it worked again.
(before changing the cable I switched of the forced tv detection and switched off both my PC and TV)
It's still kinda strange... because my 'old cable' is gold plated, very high quality, only 5 months old and neatly tucked away against and through the wall without any sharp bends or 'stress- areas'. Never had an unexpected power failure or computer/tv ****ups, never came in contact with water of any kind and suddenly... no TV anymore...
Beforehand, I did all the tests crazytore did (my system's practically the same as his too) and I also tried an Svideo-SCART adapter with several of my TV's scart inputs but still nothing...
I'll let my old cable rest for a while and test it again.
I don't know if this could be caused by some sort of static charge buildup or other feedback or something?

I have 2.5 acres of land and I want to use some of it for a barn with an apartment loft. I do pl;an on keeping my horses in the bar at night and let them out all day in the pasture. Has anyone lived in an apartment loft, where the stalls are on the first floor and the apartment is on the second floor? Is it alright to live in permanently? The barn with the apartment loft is 1296 sq. Ft and it has four stalls, but there is another barn with an apartment loft that is 1728 sq. Ft and it has six stalls. I like the one with 1728 sq. Ft because it has more bedrooms and bathrooms. But I won't need six stalls, because I plan on buying two horses. So what should I do with the extra stalls?
Here is the website where I saw the apartment lofts.

Funny,and here i though that when i played the beta of battlefield bad company 2 for instance,and can pretty much knock down anything from fences to,cement walls and trees or even bring an entire house down,and do it in any order i wish,with whatever weapon i want,that it's pretty good physics calculations going on.
And it doesn't require a GPU for physics either,it's all done with the CPU...
So your argument for GPU accelerated physics was?

Managing your system with YaST
Super Tool
One of the highlights of openSUSE is YaST, the Swiss Army knife of configuration tools for Linux. YaST will help you with everything from managing hardware to configuring users.
YaST – Yet another Setup Tool or Your awesome Setup Tool – has a long history with SUSE. SUSE, which was called S.u.S.E. for "Softwareund System-Entwicklung" (Software and System Development), was a Slackware-based distro with an early version of YaST. Originally, YaST wasn't the buffed up, GUI-enabled tool you now know and love – the first iterations of YaST were text mode–only, and nowhere near as full-featured as YaST is today.
In 1999, YaST2 made its first appearance in SuSE Linux 6.3, as the installer. Over time, YaST has continued to evolve and mature. After Novell acquired SUSE in 2004, YaST was released under the GPL. In this article, I'm really talking about YaST2, but to simplify things, I'll just call it YaST.

The Egyptians used leonine images for a variety of purposes, including depictions of lions themselves, as figures of powerful goddesses such as Wadjet, Bastet, or Sakhmet, or as symbols of the king. Artisans had to add specific iconographic details to help the viewer understand what lilian" was meant. Recent research has demonstrated that sculptures such as this, showing a recumbent lion with his head turned and his paws crossed, perhaps always represent the king.
Catalogue Description:
Large recumbent limestone lion made in two parts, resting on an oblong base, front paws crossed, tail curled on base in front with the head facing front. Mane has incised details. Condition: Sculpture in two parts (a=head; b=rear part). Apparently made that way originally as the breaks are evidently ancient. Large ancient dowels are on each inner side of the two pats. Purpose of having two parts not evident. Said to be a sculptor's trial model. Various minor chips. Over rear of head extending over one ear was heavy crystallized gravel deposit. The workmanship is good.

Masumi Hiraga Jackson, Japanese Migrant, 1985
Image: Charcoal pot & metal charcoal sticks
Source: Museum Victoria
Masumi Hiraga was born on the 10th April 1935. Her mother was Kino Hiraga, born on 12th July 1897 and died on 17th May 1997, just two months before her 100th birthday. Kino married Masumi's father Tomoichi when she was 22 years old. Masumi is their fifth daughter. Kino and Tomoichi had three boys and seven girls. The three boys all died young. Their oldest son died towards the end of World War II, flying as a pilot in the airforce.
The family house is located at Nirasaki in Yamanashi Prefecture, 100 kms west of Tokyo. Kino was unusual for her weaving practices - she frequently wove the silk cloth for kimonos herself, sent the material away to be professional dyed and then hand made the kimono. Few others could duplicate her abilities and her family were considered to be very fortunate to have such clothing after the War. Tomoichi was a very industrious and innovative man and was quick to introduce new products such as a western style dining table and a water-service to his family's and neighbours' homes during the war. Tomoichi's main occupation was to run his farm, silkworm culture and orchard, but he took a strong interest in fortune telling and studied it at Kofu city whenever he had free time. Masumi recalls that they had many farm hands at the busiest times. Tomoichi was a quiet man, but a strong disciplinarian and Masumi recalls that he exerted 'excellent control over the children. All the children observed his words strictly'. As a Mitsubishi military factory was near their house, they often accommodated the soldiers who worked at the factory. They did not experience heavy bombing at Nirasaki like in the big cities, so their every day life was relatively quiet. Tomoichi passed away at the age of 93.
Masumi met her husband when he was attending a conference in Japan as a lecturer from RMIT. After the conference he returned to Australia, but maintained a correspondence with Masumi. He asked Masumi to marry him after a year, but it took Masumi seven years to finally make a commitment. Meantime, Masumi visited Australia twice and held various demonstrations of Ikebana, the Noh dance and the tea ceremony at numerous institutes and schools. Masumi held a teaching position at a university in Tokyo, however, she accepted a position to work for the Indo-China refugees in Thailand. The appointment lasted for three years. Masumi opened schools for refugees in Thailand and taught Japanese and culture to the refugees who were planning to come to Japan. It created a great deal of publicity that a professional educator would accept such a position and accomplish so much. After three years, however, Masumi needed a break from her work, so she decided to study once again.
Masumi attended the University of Canberra to study English and linguistics, then married her Australian husband in 1984. After the ceremony, she returned to Japan to finalise her house and job in Tokyo, then settled in Melbourne in 1985. She has two stepdaughters. Sadly, her husband died in 1987 of a heart attack, aged 62 years. Masumi immersed herself in the Noh theatre to change the course of her life. She was learning English full time, but after her husband died, this became part time. Even though she has lived in Australia and studied English for over 20 years, she still feels she hasn't perfected the language. Masumi could have returned to Japan, but she chose to stay here because she thought she could continue her life in Australia to start a new chapter for the remainder of her life.
Masumi recalls that when she first came to Australia she did not come into contact with anyone who could perform a genuine Japanese tea ceremony. She practised this art form for a long time, but did not obtain any certificates. This is because the conservative Japanese society in those days did not allow people to pursue both Ikebana and tea ceremony to a professional level. Masumi has been performing Ikebana, Noh theatre and paper doll making for 50 years. These art forms started as a hobby and after the death of her husband she became involved in the doll making art seriously. Ever since Masumi has created numerous dolls and has around 80 in her collection which have been displayed frequently.
Masumi teaches Ikebana every week at her home studio. She has accepted invitations from Nepal and Sueto in Africa to hold Ikebana demonstrations and workshops as well as a number of schools and institutes in Victoria, Tasmania and New South Wales. She returns to Japan every year to see her family, to undertake Ikebana lessons, to practise her Noh performance and to purchase materials for doll-making. Her kimonos hold special meaning for Masumi, both as mementos (those woven and/or made by her mother and sisters) and as cultural artefacts.

The Glasgow packaging, distribution, manufacturing and labels company saw revenue between January and the end of June grow three per cent from £68.1 million to £71.1m.
However underlying pre-tax profits slipped from £1.4m to £1.2m as a result of margin pressures, particularly in its labels arm, and raw material price increases.
Macfarlane indicated it is suffering from supermarket price wars with its customers, which are under price pressure from the grocers, increasing the frequency of label printing requests but reducing volumes. That means printing is less efficient than if done in larger runs.
Chief executive Peter Atkinson said a recently installed £750,000 printing press at the label making facility in Kilmarnock would help improve margins.
He said: "That allows us to more effectively manage these small order volumes.
"There has been some retraining of staff but from our point of view it has been a fairly easy implementation."
Manufacturing revenue in the period was up from £15.1m to £15.8m but operating profit fell from £626,000 to £221,000.
In the larger packaging distribution arm turnover was at almost £57m, up from £54.9m, although operating profit was slightly down from £1.6m to £1.5m.
Mr Atkinson said improving sales trends have been seen throughout the year with trading currently tracking five per cent ahead.In the coming months he expects a large contribution from Macfarlane's growing presence in the internet retail sector, which is heavily weighted towards Christmas.
He said: "We saw weaker margins in [the first quarter], a degree of margin recovery in Q2 and as we started the second half of the year it has improved again. We have seen good sales growth in the first half and it has improved during the period [since] as well."
Macfarlane has added clients in internet retail, automotive and engineering in the period although Mr Atkinson did not divulge the names of the new customers.
The business bought Reading based Lane Packaging in a £1.2m deal in May and that contributed around £500,000 of revenue and £19,000 profit.
Mr Atkinson said: "It is slightly ahead of expectations so we are very pleased with that."
Mr Atkinson confirmed he had been working closely with finance director John Love to look at more acquisitions and further deals are anticipated.
He said: "We are very hopeful we will be announcing another in the second half of the year."
Mr Love added that holding the interim dividend at 0.5p should be seen as a sign of the group's confidence of meeting its full-year targets.
He also noted the pension deficit had reduced by £2.7m since December and stood at £13.2m at the end of June.
Net debt widened from £7.2m to £11.6m mainly as a result of pension scheme contributions, the acquisition of Lane and provision of additional working capital.

Insider Tips: Locks
Competitive Thinking
A genuine multitasking system like Linux runs many processes concurrently. Programs must compete for data access. Assigning locks to files ensures exclusive access and prevents the possibility of data.
Most Linux machines have an MTA, a Mail Transfer Agent. This can be Postfix, Exim or even Sendmail. The MTA either uses a Fetchmail process or TCP to fetch email messages. When the MTA finds a message addressed to the local user, it passes the message on to the Local Delivery Agent (LDA). And the LDA stores the message in a mailbox file, after possibly taking a detour via a filter such as Procmail. If two messages arrive at the same time, the MTA will hand both of them to an LDA process at the same (see Figure 1). Each process will then attempt to write to the same mailbox file, again at the same time. If you are lucky, the messages end up in the right file, but in the wrong order, but you are far more likely to lose a file as the processes overwrite each other's data.

- Forum: Streetwear and Denim
none of those items is a fake, seriously. I don't have time but i can even tell you season and all are runway pieces. Even that "fake" item that showed up before seemed genuine to me. There is no fake YYPH, nor hype about the brand. Only hype is what we created on Y! and ebay a bunch of people here and there. about the spelling, there are always faulty batches I guess. Even a ss09 suit had PDH instead of PHD embroidered in every unit of that piece-

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year celebration, falls on the last weekend of September this year. Following the lunar Jewish calendar rather than Gregorian, Rosh Hashanah (literally Head of the Year) falls on the 1st of Tishrei each year, migrating between September 5th & 30th. This two-day celebration begins this year at sundown on September 28th (Erev Rosh Hashanah) and lasts until Shabat begins at sundown on the 30th. One of the many Rosh Hashanah traditions is to eat apples and honey - a symbol of our hope for a "sweet" new year - and while dipping apples in honey is the most simple snack, here are a few other ideas - all gluten free! - to help you plan ahead for your holiday baking. L'shanah tova! (Happy New Year!)
