Originally written on Fox Sports Midwest | Last updated 8/7/12
ST. LOUIS Mitchell Boggs has certainly backed up his preseason talk. The hard-throwing reliever made headlines over the winter when he said at the Cardinals' annual Winter Warm-Up charity event that he felt he could compete with anybody in the league and expected to be "really good" this year. Coming from a guy who was demoted to Triple-A for part of last season and was rarely used as the Cardinals made their historic comeback down the stretch, some were skeptical of Boggs' bold predictions. The critics are nowhere to be found now. Boggs rolled off his 23rd consecutive scoreless appearance Sunday night, the longest stretch for a Cardinals right-hander since at least 1918. Serving as the Cardinals primary eighth inning setup man, he's posted a microscopic 1.51 ERA in 50 games. "I think keeping that mindset I had early on of not worrying about expectations or roles and focusing on me and focusing on the capabilities I have of helping this team, that's something I've tried to m...

Associated Press= AMSTERDAM (AP) — With less than a week to go before national elections, an abrupt rise in the popularity of the brainy new leader of the Netherlands' Labor Party, Diederik Samsom, has conservative Prime Minister Mark Rutte suddenly fighting to hang on to his slim lead in the polls.
Neither candidate is seeking to radically alter the Netherlands' relationship with Europe. But Samsom, a former Greenpeace activist with a degree in nuclear physics, has said he views Rutte's emphasis on austerity as misguided. If elected, he would de-prioritize spending cuts in the short term, investing more in education.
His slogan for the Sept. 12 vote: Make the Netherlands "stronger and more compassionate."
The reason behind Samsom's rise is no mystery. Labor had been lagging in the polls until the first televised debate between the top four candidates last month, and Samsom's polished performance allowed him to position himself as the most reasonable alternative to Rutte.
Samsom displayed a confident command of policy, acting humbly while also articulately criticizing his opponents for inflexible views.
That style has continued to serve him well.
The other top candidates are far-left Socialist Leader Emile Roemer — a party with communist roots that has never participated in government — and populist Geert Wilders, known for his anti-Islam stances and his calls for the Netherlands to withdraw from the common euro currency.
Rutte may be right to worry about Samsom. While Rutte's conservatives still have a small edge over Labor, a poll released Friday showed more Dutch want to see Samsom as prime minister than Rutte.
Socialist Party leader Roemer is widely-liked but has not been seen as having the stature needed to rule. One popular news website routinely refers to him as "Fozzie Bear." Wilders' voters are intensely devoted, but his anti-Europe, anti-Islam rhetoric is not getting wider traction. Both have lost ground in recent polls.
After a decade of right and center-right governments in the Netherlands, left-leaning parties command a majority in most opinion polls, though they encompass many small parties. A record 40 percent of voters are still undecided a week before the Sept. 12 vote. If progressives begin to see Samsom as having a chance to beat Rutte, they may throw their support behind him.
Although only elected Labor leader in March, Samsom is a reasonably well-known figure in the Netherlands.
He has served in parliament since 2003, and his ability to perform well on television should come as no surprise. In 2005 and 2006 he won "The National News Quiz"; in 2008 he won "The National IQ Test" and the same year he won "The Big History Quiz."
His wife reportedly told him he had proved his point and should stop competing.
Before entering politics, Samsom worked for Greenpeace and he was arrested several times, though he does not have a criminal record. In an uncomfortable interview with a women's magazine, he admitted to being vain, unhappy about going bald, and having cheated on past girlfriends before meeting his wife. He is an atheist and a vegetarian.
"If you look at our platform, then the Socialist Party and Green-Left are our most obvious partners," he said in the interview with RTL television Friday, when asked about potential coalition partners.
But he left the door open to forming a government with any party, including Rutte's, no matter how the vote turns out.

Okay, I know this has probably been re-iterated a thousand times on this thread but a fighting sport , in this case muay thai, can just as easily kill someone as as "military art" like muay boran, even if it still existed. People die in boxing, a few have died in MMA, and how many people have died in Muay Thai (in Thailand)? If you hit someone in the temple hard enough, they could die. Im scared enough of that happeneing without having to learn "uber-secret death moves of killing" that may actually work and really ruining someone. Any "sports fighting style" can become deadly with intent, and the REALLY cool part about just training for fun(sport) is when you have proved yourself on the matt or in the ring, when REAL **** goes down, you have the confidence to walk away without throwing a single punch and know that you could've taken him.
With uber-killing moves of death, because of they way they are trained, and how hypothetical they are, you won't have the same confidence or ability to the pull them off in an alive setting.

It appears that New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg, a billionaire media mogul, has switched his affinity from Gov. Lincoln Chafee to RI General Treasurer Gina Raimondo in the 2014 Ocean State campaign for governor.
Gov. Lincoln Chafee is shrugging off news that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is holding a fundraiser this week for state Treasurer Gina Raimondo.
Bloomberg stumped for Chafee in the 2010 governor's race calling him one of the nation's most effective leaders. Channel 12 reports that Bloomberg is hosting a fundraiser Thursday for treasurer Gina Raimondo, who is expected to run for governor.
Providence Mayor Angel Taveras says it's a dream that the city won a $5 million prize to help low-income children boost language skills. The prize money came from a philanthropic organization set up by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Providence won with a program that will equip low-income children with devices that record conversations and count the words they are exposed to. The children's parents will then be coached on ways to expose kids to more words. The goal is to close what's known as "the word gap," between low-income and more affluent four-year-olds.

Dimezone was developed to avoid the problem of hydrolysis that occurs with Phenidone in alkaline solution. Unfortunately Dimezone turned out to be less soluble in water than Phenidone. To correct this the structure of Dimezone was altered slightly to make Dimezone-S (S for more soluble). Google the three structures to see what was done. At the pH of the developer you are working on there would be no problem with hydrolysis. So there is no reason that you cannot use Phenidone. I have never heard anyone other than yourself say that Phenidone produces more fog than Dimezone-S. A small amount of fog is always produced during development and really cannot be avoided. If you attempt to eliminate all fog produced by a developer with bromode or benzotriazole the activity of the developer is serverely compromised.
As far as activity there does seem to be less activity with the two Dimezones as compared to Phenidone that cannot be explained by the slight increase in molecular weights. So replacing one developing agent for the other is problematic in this respect. Perhaps this accounts for the increase in fog that you observed when Phenidone was used. You were simply using more Phenidone in relation to Dimezone-S.
Yeats ago there was a developer called Huebl paste which was produced by grinding Glycin, sodum sulfiie, and potassium carbonate together in a mortar. A portion of this paste was then dissolved in water to make a developing solution. (Huebl is an alternative spelling of the man's name when there is no umlaut U in the type set)

Book Reviews
LaVerne Harrell Clark, who incidentally comes from Smithville,
Texas, was educated at Texas Woman's University, and once was a
newspaper reporter in Fort Worth. Degrazia and the University of
Arizona Press should all be enormously proud. Together they have
created a book which is worthy of the animal it portrays.

John O. Meusebach, German Colonizer in Texas. By Irene Marschall
King. Austin (University of Texas Press), 1967. Pp. x+192. Illus-
trations, appendix, bibliography, index. $5.oo.
This brief volume is a tribute to one of the men who brought the
early German settlers to Texas, written by a granddaughter who makes
an effort to avoid familial adulation, although Meusebach was a cul-
tured intellectual of whom any granddaughter might be fond. John
O. Meusebach was a member of the German gentry with a background
of public service and legal training. He was one of those Germans
of the 184o's who was devoted to liberty, not nationalism, and he
gave up a promising legal career in Germany to move to the Texas
Texas was much talked about in Germany in the early Nineteenth
Century; the first efforts toward colonization were made in 1842 by
a verein organized by a group of German princes interested in land
speculation. Meusebach joined them in December, 1844, as commis-
sioner-general and arrived in their settlement at New Braunfels, Texas,
in May, 1845. Financial and land troubles plagued the colony from
the beginning; the German princes were not good bookkeepers and
never understood the difficulties of frontier settlement. When Meuse-
bach arrived, none of the sponsors had ever been to their land grant,
which was 150 miles northwest of New Braunfels.
Meusebach immediately established Fredericksburg as a way-station
between New Braunfels and the company grant; 4,000 immigrants
promptly arrived with no money or facilities available to establish
themselves. The grant was located in inaccessible Indian country and
the Mexican War further complicated the matter. In 1847, Meuse-
bach made a treaty with the Comanches which allowed the verein to
survey the grant, and he deserves credit for the fact that the Indians
never molested the company agents and surveyors. Several communities
were established on the southern part of the grant, but a settlement
seldom lasted long because of its vulnerability.

Trib HS Insider Q&A: Chaz Cheatham, Valley
TribLIVE Sports Videos
For the first time in his Valley High School career, senior Chaz Cheatham is starting at wide receiver, where he hopes to be a big-play target for his quarterback and brother, Ty Matthews. Cheatham and Matthews used to catch football in the street, with Cheatham pretending he was the QB and Matthews the wideout. Now, their roles are reversed as the pair tries to lead Valley back to respectability in Class AA.
Last week, Matthews found Cheatham in the end zone for a game-winning touchdown pass as Valley beat Deer Lakes, 14-7, to snap a 22-game losing streak.
Q: You have broken a 22-game losing streak. Was there a better way to open the season?
A: People kept bringing it up. All I have seen with this team is progress. There is a different atmosphere now with this team; we're more focused.
Q: Valley and Burrell will renew a long-time, heated conference rivalry Friday night. What does this game mean to you?
A: It's Burrell. They're right up the road, up the bypass. We needed to bring this game back. It's the headliner. It's what people are talking about.
Q: Do Burrell and Valley players get along?
A: Well, there are guys on this team that have friends over there. That's not for me. My boys are only at Valley.
Q: Explain your relationship to Ty Matthews.
A: We have the same dad, Ty Sr.
Q: You and Ty grew up together. Were you always competitive?
A: Yes. We always played football together. I was always over his house. Hopefully, we can hook up a lot on the field this year.
Q: Valley grad Toney Clemons was drafted by the Steelers in April. Did you grow up watching him play?
A: I came to a lot of games and sat up in the stands and watched. That was before we had turf and everything. It's always great to see someone from your town go to the pros. You can say, 'I saw him play in high school.'
Q: You guys went away for training camp, at Slippery Rock University. What was the experience like?
A: It was a fun time. I took some pictures on Instagram. They had great food up there for us. Especially the stir-fry and pizza.

6/30/15 Top-Earning Celebrities
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, June 30, 2015
FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR. and MANNY PACQUIAO are the top-earning celebrities on this year's Forbes.com Celebrity 100, thanks to their extremely-lucrative but not-terribly-exciting fight. Floyd earned $300 million for it, and Manny pocketed $160 million. KATY PERRY is third on the list, earning $135 million over the past year.
Katy Perry is in a legal battle with a group of nuns. She's heading to court against the sisters at Immaculate Heart of Mary after buying the convent they live in for $14.5 million cash. The problem is that Perry bought the property from Los Angeles Archbishop Jose Gomez, and the nuns say they'd already accepted an offer for $1 million more from a restaurant owner.
RIHANNA went out to a club Sunday night and came home with a stray puppy she claims she found "in a bathroom somewhere." She calls him Pepe and it looks like she's keeping him. On the way home she picked up a dog cage, food, and potty training pads.
NBC fired DONALD TRUMP over the anti-Mexico stuff he said in his campaign announcement. They're ditching both the Miss USA pageant and "Celebrity Apprentice". Trump didn't back down though. In addition to standing by his comments, he called NBC "weak" and threatened them with a lawsuit.
6/29/15 Crazy Prank on Paris Hilton

Monday, June 29, 2015
In a new blog post, BRISTOL PALIN says her pregnancy was intentional, and she suggests that the dad is her ex-fiancé Dakota Meyer. She says, quote, "Everyone knows I wanted more kids, to have a bigger family. Believing I was heading that way, I got ahead of myself . . . But I do not regret this baby."
The Candie's Foundation has paid BRISTOL PALIN big money over the years to deliver a message of ABSTINENCE. And now that she's pregnant with her second out-of-wedlock baby, they still have her back. They said, quote, "Her courage, while still a teen herself, to admit her mistakes so publicly in an effort to help others was remarkably brave. Today, at 24, we can only offer our support to Bristol and her family and respect her request for privacy."
When British music fans heard that KANYE WEST was going to play the annual Glastonbury Music Festival, they launched a petition to get him UN-invited. It didn't work. Kanye's set went on as planned. And not surprisingly, it was eventful. For starters, a man pulled a Kanye ON Kanye, by jumping onstage just as he was starting "Black Skinhead". The guy actually got a few seconds of dancing in before a security guard took care of him. Instead of just dealing with it, Kanye started over. Kanye also played to the crowd by doing a little bit of QUEEN's "Bohemian Rhapsody". He let the audience handle a lot of it, but the parts he sang, he didn't sing all that well. And then there was that part where Kanye informed the crowd that they were watching, quote, "The greatest living rock star on the planet."
KATE HUDSON and her brother Oliver have been disowned by their biological father Bill Hudson, after Oliver accused him of abandoning them. Bill says, quote, "I no longer recognize Oliver and Kate as my own. I would ask them to stop using the Hudson name. They are no longer a part of my life. [They are] dead to me now."
An Egyptian TV show pulled off an EXTREME prank where they tricked PARIS HILTON into thinking she was dying in a plane crash. The video seems legit . . . and afterward Paris Tweeted, quote, "Scariest moment of my life. I really believed the plane was going to crash, and we were all going to die."
6/26/15 Criss Angel Saves a Life

Friday, June 26, 2015
MILEY CYRUS has snagged the only award that matters: PETA's Sexiest Vegetarian for 2015. And one of the things that put her over the top was her musical tribute to her dead blowfish Pablow . . . which includes the line, "But watching my friends eat my friends ruined my appetite."
Abstinence-only crusader BRISTOL PALIN announced yesterday that she's pregnant with her second out-of-wedlock child. And yeah, she knows how this looks . . . quote, "I know this has been, and will be, a huge disappointment to my family, to my close friends, and to many of you." She didn't name the father, but she said, quote, "I do not want any lectures and I do not want any sympathy. [My son] Tripp, this new baby, and I will all be fine, because God is merciful." She also asked for privacy, because that'll TOTALLY happen.
CRISS ANGEL and his crew saved the life of a magician named Spencer Horsman, who was on "America's Got Talent" a few years ago. He's a part of Criss' Vegas show now . . . And during a rehearsal something went wrong, and Spencer lost consciousness and got trapped in a box filled with water 30 feet above the stage. Once the crew realized he needed help, they rushed to get him down and free him. Fortunately, they were able to get to him in time, and revive him. Criss even led the charge, pulling himself to the top of the box by the chains holding it up. Believe it or not, Spencer is well enough to return to the stage tonight.
DUSTIN DIAMOND was sentenced to four months behind bars for stabbing a man in a bar brawl on New Year's Day. He was ordered to report to jail on Sunday. At the hearing, Dustin said, quote, "I sincerely apologize to everyone involved . . . this was the single most terrifying experience of my life."
ROSE MCGOWAN tried to call out Hollywood sexism by Tweeting a note that came with a script she received for an ADAM SANDLER movie. The note encouraged her to wear something tight and black that showed cleavage . . . and a push-up bra was encouraged. Then Rose sent a second Tweet saying that her first Tweet had gotten her FIRED from her talent agency.
6/25/15 Caitlyn Jenner a Diva
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Thursday, June 25, 2015
SHIA LABEOUF had to get 20 stitches and13 staples on his head and index finger, after crashing through a window on a movie set in North Dakota. It wasn't an accident, he was supposed to put his head through the window. Something just went wrong. But his rep says the injuries were "minimal", and he's due back on the set today.
CAITLYN JENNER has been a woman for less than a month, and according to "OK!" magazine, she's already a DIVA. A source says, quote, "For years I knew Bruce as a nice, humble, genuine guy, and now I know Caitlyn to be just the opposite." Caitlyn's "diva-like" behavior includes being "rude, arrogant, and short-tempered" . . . obsessing over her face and her Twitter account . . . and being fixated on lighting and camera angles during photo shoots. If that isn't enough, the source adds that she has become, quote, "a seriously sassy woman."
Kim Kardashian announced this week that she is expecting a baby boy with Kanye West, and apparently the baby's gender was no surprise. A source said the couple used gender selection, and only implanted male embryos when they did In Vitro Fertilization. According to the medical director at Fertility Centers of Illinois, the process of gender selection is "really controversial," especially when parents do it for non-medical reasons.
BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN has been moved to hospice care, and it sounds like her family is preparing for the worst. The family issued a statement saying, quote, "Despite the great medical care at numerous facilities, Bobbi's condition has continued to deteriorate. As of today, she has been moved into hospice care . . . She is in God's hands now."
BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN's court-appointed conservator filed a $10 million lawsuit against her supposed "husband", NICK GORDON . . . saying he abused her, stole from her . . . and possibly caused the injuries that led to her DEATH. They also say he basically went from being her adopted brother to her boyfriend to get his hands on her inheritance.
6/24/15 Charlie & Denise Being Sued
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, June 24, 2015
LEONARDO DICAPRIO, who's been known to use the "Sports Illustrated" Swimsuit Issue like a catalog, is now an investor in a company called Casper Sleep. It's a mattress company. --Sometimes jokes just write themselves.
BRITNEY SPEARS posted a picture of herself in a boat on a Louisiana lake with a hot guy . . . with the caption, "So nice to be home! Nothing like Louisiana boys." No, he's not a new boyfriend . . . just a guy who asked for a picture with her. As for why SHE posted a copy of it on HER Instagram . . . well, apparently because she and Charlie Ebersol are no longer a couple.
DIDDY's rep says he only acted in self-defense during his altercation with UCLA strength coach Sal Alosi. But there are new reports that security cameras caught the whole thing, and he was definitely the aggressor. Meanwhile, police added more charges, including two additional counts of assault with a deadly weapon.
Charlie Sheen will probably have more venom to spew at his ex-wife Denise Richards after hearing about this. Just a couple of days after he went on a vicious Father's Day tirade about Richards, whom he called the "worst mom alive" and an "evil terrorist sack of landfill rash," Sheen has been named with Richards as defendants in a lawsuit filed by their kids' tutoring service. The company, called A-List Tutoring Services, has been working with their two daughters on all of their school work, but that's about to end because they claim Charlie and Denise haven't been paid their bill. According to the lawsuit, Denis hired the tutors but Charlie is also named because he's a parent too. They owe a whopping $11,000, and that's just for four weeks of service.

The basic goal is to create a Business Card for each contact and put that card in a FlowLayoutPanel. The card itself is comprised of about 10 labels and 3 comboboboxes.
It doesn't take too many business cards to cause initial population of the panel to take a long time. Maybe I can find a way to deal with this
However, a primary concern is crashing. It only takes about 200 or so cards to crash (run out of handles).
I agree there are paging methods that could be implemented since a user never will need to see more than will fit on 1 or 2 screens at a time, but writing paging routines might be pretty tough.
Any suggestions on how to maximize efficiency of this planned FlowLayoutPanel?
P.S. The main issue is running out of handles (too many controls in the panel). Must resolve this before worrying about speed.

The battlefield robots or 2 year, experts say it could only when in a supporting role
In Cameron's movie the terminator of the opening, in a piece of dark books and future battlefield, intelligent battle robot T800 type, under the command of skynet, ruthlessly to remaining army almost driven to human beings.
14, a message appeared, let many people happen to coincide to associate with "the terminator". [b][url=http://www.fitflop-forsale.com/]fitflop for sale[/url][/b]
, CCTV reported, according to American press Boston dynamics for the development of the world's most advanced humanoid robot "Atlas (Atlas)", the robot in the future may be like a man to rescue work in dangerous environment.
, the report said the United States congress passed a bill, by 2015, one-third of the ground combat robot soldiers, will be used for this purpose, will invest up to $127 billion in research funding.
Robot, and its service and rebellion in humans, is a science fiction and one of the great classical proposition in the movie. Now, we really stand on the threshold of the open robot war era?
The army in 2015 a third of the land will use the robot
According to the report, "atlas" height 1.9 meters, weight 150 kg, this figure as a basketball player. It's "eyes" are the two stereo sensors, have two dexterous hand, can under the real-time remote control, through a complex terrain.
After Boston dynamics of online video, "atlas" fully shows the outstanding balance. It in its stride a conveyor belt, for example, avoid suddenly appeared on the conveyor belt of wood; Jumped off the firmly ground from a height; On both sides of the two legs are apart from the trap, then ran up the stairs; Standing on one leg, are hit from the side of the ball to fail, and so on. These are all past bipedal robots can't do.
In fact, the robot soldiers serving in the army would have abound. In 2007, there have been 5000 ground robots to join us, at least 10 smart robot wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
CCTV's reports also revealed that the U.S. congress has passed legislation to: by 2015, one-third of the ground combat robot soldiers, will be used for arms research into history of the nation's largest single fee of $127 billion, in order to achieve the future must finish all the soldiers on the battlefield combat missions, including attack and protection, looking for targets. The army's future a brigade combat units, including at least 151 robot.
"Americans so big investment scale, should have strategic traction role." Academy of military sciences experts Du Wenlong interpretation way, "in the United States, there are some very avant-garde advanced equipment plan, really realize is not much, but for the development of the technology, the military, civilian areas even will produce very big."
In his view, if a robot is true, the project may be as "Star Wars" anti-missile technology development, promote play a similar role.
Du Wenlong: currently, the robot [b][url=http://cheapraybanwholesale.com/]cheap ray ban wholesale[/url][/b] is only a supporting role on the battlefield
Robot soldiers, no feelings, no surrender, I do not know fatigue, hunger and pain, its strength, awareness, speed and anti-damage ability are far more than human... "Terminator" gave people the impression that the future will become a reality?
"In fact, to humanity's current level of science and technology, robot combat is still in the very early stage, the gap is very large in the battle against real autonomy."
Du Wenlong told reporters that the current robot, including unmanned aerial vehicle (uav), the vast majority are remote control was made, and like the x-47b's so-called "independent" unmanned aerial vehicle (uav), just to complete some stylized movements.
"The current robot, survival ability in high threat to battlefield environment is very fragile." This is because the "autonomy" of today's robots are also very "stupid", there is not much strain capacity; Instructions for the remote control robot, the data link is more vulnerable to interference, cannot guarantee absolute "obedient" robot.
Therefore, no breakthrough in artificial intelligence research, before robots on the battlefield, can be in a supporting role. "Them or replace human in high-risk environments from the front, a mission, to reduce casualties; or replace human labor." "Atlas" is designed to aid.
"In addition, made of bipedal humanoid robot soldiers, completely unnecessary." Du Wenlong, explains that people were playing area is large, poor stability, strength is weak, fragile in the barrage, even eating a grenade might be folded.
"With artificial intelligence, can install it in [b][url=http://www.cheap-fitflop.com/]cheap fitflop[/url][/b] defense, fire, and maturity are very high on tanks, planes, ships, it can maximize the battle efficiency." Du Wenlong think, to imagine future combat robots, should not be shackled by the stereotype of the science fiction film.

Originally written on Cage Writer | Last updated 12/30/11
LAS VEGAS - The UFC must have a lot of faith in Jimy Hettes because it rolled the dice by putting the 24-year-old on the pay-per-view portion of UFC 141. Hettes made the bosses look smart by putting on a three-round exhibition of grappling, takedowns, submissions, and ground and pound on his way to an easy win over Nam Phan, 30-25, 30-25 and 30-26. Hettes, 24, only had one UFC fight under his belt and he was taking on a grizzled veteran of the sport in Phan. He came out strong with takedowns 16 and 35 seconds into the fight. From there, Hettes used trip takedowns and judo throws to dump Phan (17-10, 1-2 UFC) on his head whenever he wanted. On the ground, Hettes (11-0, 2-0 UFC) shifted between working for submissions and pounding away at Phan's head was super accurate punches.

A person who is happy and has a positive outlook about life. Someone who is not stuck in the past such as an ex-love. Chemistry is very important as is first impressions. I'm a romantic, loving, caring person looking for someone who has the same qualities or similar. No one is perfect and I don't expect it. A relationship takes time, and it must be based on friendship first! Friendship is the foundation, and without that foundation, you cannot build a pyramid. No one is perfect, and if you are trying to change a person, you are doomed for failure. So, keep it simple, and accept people for who they are. Love you yourself so that you can love others. Well, we all are looking for that perfect mate, but I believe it all consists of so many elements. I am spontaneous. adventurous, humorous, and a great kisser. "You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back" "Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart

Raising money for MS
For the second year, a local musician is spending time on a rooftop to help raise money to fight multiple sclerosis.
"I'm doing good so far," said Chris Higbee of the Chris Higbee Project from on top of the roof of the Moose Lodge 92 along Route 51 in Perryopolis on Tuesday.
At 8 p.m. Sunday, Higbee climbed onto the roof where he had a tent waiting for him as well as three nights of camping supplies.
Higbee did the same thing last year when a member of the Moose Lodge contacted Mark Vinsick, a guitarist with the Chris Higbee Project, who then contacted Higbee to see if he was interested in the rooftop marathon as part of the Ugliest Bartender Contest to help fight multiple sclerosis.
Last year, Higbee said managed to raise approximately $5,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation. He hopes to raise more this year.
Higbee was off to a good start. On Monday night between 40 and 50 people came to visit him, some driving up to four hours to make the journey. He welcomed people from as far as Beaver and even Erie.
Higbee has been gracious for those visiting fans and supporters. He talks with them and will even play some music. In fact, he brought his fiddle on the roof with him.
All donations are welcome. The first 150 people who donate $10 or more will receive a ticket to tonight's Chris Higbee Project performance at the Moose. It will be held at 8 p.m. when Higbee comes down from the rooftop.
Higbee, who's an avid camper, said he's been spending his time listening to and playing music and also writing music.
Not only is Higbee thankful for his fans, he's also happy to see his hometown community come out to support him by bringing him food and visitors to help pass the three-day camp-out.
"It's been a lot of fun," Higbee said.

Chocolate With Holographic Images New From Switzerland
Switzerland is famous for its chocolate, and now has come up with a new wrinkle with the development of candies decorated with holographic designs. The rainbow images are made with no additives or chemicals, etched into the surface of the chocolate through a process similar to that used to etch holograms onto credit cards, except that these are edible.
Holograms are photographic images created by superimposing two-dimensional pictures of the same object seen from different angles, creating an appearance of depth. Reflection holograms, the type found on the Swiss chocolate, can be viewed in normal light, as laser beams are actually used to take the picture. For the candy version the image microstructures are etched into a metal master mold that uses texture to diffract light, creating the holographic effect. A plastic mold is made from the metal mold which is then filled with liquid chocolate, imprinting the microstructures onto the candy surfaces in much the same way that vinyl records are made. The process uses no paint, additives, or stickers.
The method was developed by a company called Morphotonix, located in Lausanne, Switzerland. Veronica Savu, Morphotonix CEO, says that the company has tested the method with many types of chocolate and has found that some work great and others just will not mold no matter what they do because of their chemical makeup. The company began developing the technology in 2012. Savu says they are also looking at using the same technique for other products, such as authenticity marks directly embedded on any rigid plastic object (not necessarily edible).
Swiss and chocolate have gone together for centuries. Although the Swiss did not invent chocolate, they were the first to begin manufacturing it, beginning in a former paper mill near Bern around 1750. However, they did invent the milk chocolate variety. The Swiss did not really care for dark chocolate, which was all that was originally available, so a chocolate maker named Daniel Peter started to experiment with new recipes. After eight years of trial and error the recipe for milk chocolate was perfected after Peter tried using condensed milk instead of regular milk, which had too much water content. The condensed milk was invented by Henri Nestle. Today over 80 percent of the chocolate consumed by the Swiss is milk chocolate.
Another Swiss invention, which the holographic chocolate would not be able to do without, is fondant, or melting chocolate. In 1879 Rudolphe Lindt added cocoa butter to the mix to give it the qualities necessary for melting, creating what is still known as Lindt chocolates. The process also took away the coarse, gritty flavor. Schokolade is a way of life for the Swiss, who consume more per person than any other nation, over 23 pounds annually, which is an average of one chocolate bar per person for every day of the year.
The Swiss company is presently working on bringing the holographic chocolate to market, working with a German chocolate mold manufacturer. They will be unveiling the product this week in Dusseldorf, Germany at the Interpack packaging trade fair.

Clearly they cut corners and took credit for other peoples work.
What about academic and journalist integrity – come on everyone how long does it take to fact check these claims by doing a simple Google search for chocolate hologram?
the truth can be found in Scientific American the New York Times (as well as many other publications and trade journals on the subject):

List of Mendelian traits in humans
In Mendelian inheritance, a child receiving a dominant allele from either parent will have the dominant form of the trait. Only those that received the recessive allele from both parents present with the recessive phenotype. Those that receive a dominant allele from one parent and a recessive allele from the other parent will have the dominant form of the trait. Purely Mendelian traits are a tiny minority of all traits, since most phenotypic traits exhibit incomplete dominance, codominance, and contributions from many genes.
The recessive phenotype may theoretically skip any number of generations, lying dormant in heterozygous "carrier" individuals until they have children with someone who also has the recessive allele and both pass it on to their child.
These traits include:
- Wet (dominant) or dry (recessive) earwax - dry is found mostly in Asians and Native Americans[1]
- Albinism (recessive)
- Brachydactyly (shortness of fingers and toes)
- Lactase persistence (dominant)
Questionable traits[edit]
May be Mendelian but there is conflicting evidence:
- Ability to smell (bitter almond-like) hydrogen cyanide (recessive) [2]
Traits previously believed to be Mendelian[edit]
Some traits were previously believed to be Mendelian, but their inheritance is likely based on more complex genetic models[citation needed], possibly involving more than one gene. These include:[3]
- Eye color
- Hair color
- Morton's toe
- Tongue rolling
- Ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide (dominant) - largely determined by a single gene, TAS2R38, with two common alleles, though there are 8 possible haplotypes[4] Because it is not a trait where the dominant tastes and the recessive cannot, but rather a continuous gradient in ability to detect PTC, it is not a real example of a simple mendelian trait. This is best exemplified by the fact that two non-tasters (recessive trait) can, in fact, have a child that can taste PTC (dominant trait). [5]
- Widow's peak (allele)
- Detached (dominant) or attached (recessive) earlobes
- Hitchhiker's thumb (recessive)
