1950s Window Update
Paint window frames for a contemporary hit.
This mid-century living room window got an instant update with dramatic black paint. No need to hide this beauty behind drapery; homeowner Tanya Linton chose a demure roller blind instead to let the black frame take centre stage.

DEC 26 - When I, a freelance writer, bought my precious wee daughter that first present out of my first earning, it did me proud. I felt a sense of accomplishment. Maroon jet fighters lined for take-off — the cellophane gift wrapper depicted this scene. She gently took off the cellophane wrapper on which jet fighters took off and squealed with the delight of a rejoicing four-year-old.
I sit beside the dark beneath the mire: cold grey dusty day the morning lake drinks up the sky. Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither while they pass they slip away across the universe. Fairy tales lie between storybook covers.
Self-pity and little violins sometimes accompany sad stories. Fantasies suit lonely nights in the village. I imagine my estranged daughter and I chasing after butterflies armed with a collector's net. Disturbed from their resting places, they would erupt fluttering into the air like a burst of surreal vibrating pulsating winged colours live on air.
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind possessing and caressing me; limitless, undying love which shines around me like a million suns and calls me on and on across the universe. And in my mind I still need a place to go, all my changes are there. In the end, I just don't get the time. Oh, well, I'm wasted and I can't find my way home. There's a sign on the wall, but we want to be sure because you know sometimes words have two meanings.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by; but in the long run, there's still some time to change the road you're on, and it makes me wonder. Did you know your stairway lies upon the whispering wind, and as we wind on down the road our shadows taller than the soul? And if you listen very hard the tune will come to you at last when all are one and one is all to be a rock and not to roll.
Amazing grace: oh, how sweet the sounds to save a wreck like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found. I was blind, but now I see. When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun, too many ages false and spent, I have already hung this face and flock. He saved us by His endless grace will leave me whole.
Chop me some broken wood, we'll start a fire. White warm light the dawn and help me see old Satan's tree. Pass me my hat and coat, lock up the cabin slow: night, treat me right; until I go be nice to know. Kathmandu, I'll soon be seeing you and your strange bewildering time will keep me home.

All-AmericanHeroes features amateur straight guys out of uniform. These straight men are REAL current or former cops, marines, firemen, lifeguards, military police.
Corpsman Jones serves in the Navy but he wears the USMC uniform because he spends all of his time taking care of Marines. Since the Marine Corps doesn't have it's own medics, the Navy supplies them, and he has spent some time on the battlefield riding in convoys and getting shot at by bad guys. He settles back on the bed and gets ready to let his thoughts drift away from war and on to something more relaxing. His cock is growing under the tan camouflage as he rubs gently. He whips open the fly and his pink hardon pops out. Yanking the waistband of his underwear down and away from his balls, he caresses his cock with freckle-spotted hands. He uncovers his slim, toned upper body and settles back into the pillows for more self pleasuring. His flat stomach heaves with each breath as he stares intently at the manual labor he's undertaken.

I really like this brush. At first I thought I'd use this for blending crease color but I ended up using it for highlighting browbone and inner corners. It doesn't shed too much and for just $1 it's amazing bargain.

Like many of the brushes from the basic ELF brush line, the quality is mediocre. The brush tends to shed and it's generally cheap. But! I do like the brush and find myself using this for precision crease work and definition at both the inner and outer corners of the eye. It can really get into the space at the inner eye to apply a highlight, or apply a nice angle with a deeper color at the outer corner. I was pleasantly surprised by this brush, and at this price, it's one of the few in this line worth picking up.

I havent really found a use for this brush. I'm thinking about throwing it out to clear up some space. Its not really good at doing anything other than being a clean brush if i quickly need one when the rest are dirty. But even then i regret using it incase it sheds or applies the colour awkwardly. I like using the mac 217, real techniques base shadow brush and the elf c brush

Wow I can't even tell you how long I had this brush. I think I have 2 or 3 in my collection. Eye shadow is so easily to apply with this. I can make a defined cat eye edge or a soft every day look. It's so cheap too, and the brushes are so soft. I had this brush I think for 2 or 3 years now and hasn't shed. I don't know why people think the brush is scratchy I think it's so soft! It's easy to blend or make a precise edge you can't go wrong with this brush!

This brush was just alright for me!
I guess the way I apply my eye makeup, this brush just wasn't really necessary for me. It is nice for the occasional dramatic eye where I want to apply a dark shade directly to my crease, but I just don't find myself reaching for it very often.
If you are looking for a brush in this style, it's worth a shot! Cannot beat the price and it's a good starter brush I feel.

I originally bought this brush for my crease colors but I was not too satisfied. I can't really blend with this brush and the shape is just odd. I can't even use it for my lid because it's too small. I don't see the purpose of this brush but for $1 you can try it out and see if it works for you, as for me? It was pointless.

I love this brush. It is a nice wooden handle with a natural fiber brush and the brush is very soft and flexible. It does apply shadow well I like using this for the crease. It doesn't do precision though since the brush is too wide and soft but it works well for shading and shadows. I use this every day and love it. I will dig through my brush stash to find it I like it that much. I got a pack of ELF brushes that were in a set sold at Christmas time that were black handled and these are so much better so if you got that set please know that this brush is SOOO much better quality. All these white ELF brushes are fantastic, but skip the black set ones.

After seeing The Hobbit for the third viewing, I believe it is finally time for me to talk a bit about 3D films. I have always been one to doubt the importance and extravagance of 3D. However, it's not just the extra price on the ticket that bothers me. For some reason, the majority of times I go to the theater to view a 3D film, the extraspatial element seems to wear off in a matter of minutes.
I remember that happening after the opening moon sequence of Transformers 3, the 3D had no effect on me. I took my glasses on and off repeatedly, trying to see any difference. With the glasses off, everything just looked slightly blurry! What a hoax, I thought. It reminded me of when I saw Spy Kids 3D back in the day with the old blue-and-red anaglyph glasses. That one was so bad that I just took the glasses off and watched the movie in awful psychedelic purple. So, 3D and I go way back.
Anywho, back to The Hobbit. Here's how they did it:
So far, I've seen The Hobbit three times. The first time in 2D, and the second and third times in 3D. Well, I must say, my second time around was so bad that I was very glad that I'd seen it the first time in regular ol' 2D. The Hobbit is a fantastic movie, 2D or 3D, but an unexciting or painful 3D experience is no fun at all. My third time around, however, I put all of the experiments I'd been doing with 3D film viewing into full effect, and I had the most enriching 3D experience I've ever had. Here are some tricks that I've learned to take with me into the 3D theater to make sure [...]

Authorities in Grimes County are now one step closer to identifying the human remains found off County Road 234 just south of Shiro.
The sheriff now tells News 3 that the bones found buried deep in the woods are known to be that of a white male in his twenties or thirties, between 5'5" to 5'9" and weighing about 140 pounds.
"We've got several persons of interest," Grimes County Sheriff Don Sowell said. "A few cases have been reported to us in the surrounding South Texas area, so we're looking at those."
Authorities say a positive ID could come as early as Wednesday after the dental records are checked.
Loggers who were clearing the area first discovered the remains last Friday. Since then, the remains have been sent to a forensic lab at the University of North Texas in Denton.

'Can ban' lawsuit heads back to Comal County
Ban will remain in effect while judge decides whether to enforce injunction
AUSTIN, Texas - The New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung reports the lawsuit against a controversial ban on food and beverage containers on New Braunfels rivers has been transferred from Travis County back to Comal County.
The so-called "Can Ban" will remain in effect on the Comal and Guadalupe rivers inside New Braunfels city limits while the local court decides whether to enforce an injunction against the ban.
Robert Harris, with the Gruene River Company, said the process has been frustrating for businesses.
"It just gets kind of frustrating," said Harris. "It's either do this thing or not do it. I just want to get back with business as usual and people are already confused with the ban being in effect. Now you are hearing that it's going to go to court."
Harris said since the ban has been in effect, it has caused a lot of confusion and that 95 percent of his phone calls are from those who are concerned about what they can and what they cannot bring.
"Other outer cities like Houston, Austin, Dallas aren't getting the word," said Harris. "They are under the assumption that you can't even drink alcohol on the river. So, I wish we would decide one way or the other. Let's go ahead and do it and let's get back to putting people on the river."
Travis County District Judge Scott Jenkins removed the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Texas General Land Office (GLO) from the lawsuit Wednesday morning.
Doing so cleared the way for Jenkins to transfer the lawsuit back to a Comal County district court.
David Dow, a Houston resident who visits the river in New Braunfels frequently, said he's glad the ban is still in place.
"I think that if people were conscience about picking up after themselves it would be unnecessary, but I've been coming down this river and doing things on the river for 20 years and it gets worse and worse every year. People treat the river like a big trash can."
The lawsuit was filed by seven plaintiffs collectively known as the Tourist Associated Businesses of Comal County. They are comprised of beer distributors, river outfitters, and others who believe the ban will sink the tubing industry's profits.
No further action was taken Wednesday.

College Unbound@SNHU
Takes Students out of the Traditional Classroom
Manchester, N.H. (Oct. 19, 2010) – College Unbound@SNHU is a three-year intensive program built around internship-based learning. SNHU is the second New England school to roll out College Unbound and will enroll its first class beginning 2011.
College Unbound students work with faculty, professional advisors, mentors and fellow students to tackle real-world problems. Students then bring their knowledge and experiences gathered outside the classroom back to seminars where they apply them in an academic setting.
"College Unbound is our new initiative designed to reach out to students who want a different learning model, who want to save money, and who still want an SNHU campus experience," said SNHU President Paul J. LeBlanc. "By reversing the relationship of field-based learning and the work of the classroom, with the latter now serving the former, we have a breakthrough program for every student who ever chafed at sitting in a classroom for hours and yearned for hands-on learning."
College Unbound is a Big Picture Learning initiative. Big Picture Learning is a nonprofit that manages a network of more than 70 high schools that boast 95-percent graduation rates and 82-percent college continuation rates.
"College Unbound starts with the student--his or her interests, experiences, and passion for learning," said College Unbound co-director Jamie Scurry-Fahy. "The College Unbound@SNHU program then supports each student as he or she wraps all of the broad knowledge and career-specific expertise needed for our 21st-century world into engaging and meaningful work completed with a professional in the field."

Choose the health plan option from the appropriate Summaries of Benefit and Coverages. You may also call the SSC Contact Center at 734-615-2000 or 866-647-7657 (toll free) to request printed copies of a specific plan's SBC and/or the Uniform Glossary at no charge.
Please note: All of the documents listed on these pages are in Adobe Portable Document Format, or PDF. If you do not already have Adobe Acrobat Reader on your computer, you must download and install Adobe Acrobat Reader before you will be able to view or print Benefits forms.

$100,000 in Grants Available to Nonprofits in the U.S. and Canada for Energy- Efficient Upgrades
Direct Energy announced today that it has reopened its Reduce Your Use® for Good Grant program for applications. Under the grant program, nonprofits apply by uploading a short video to the company's Reduce Your Use for Good Facebook page, those selected are awarded up to $2,500 to fund energy-efficient upgrades.
"Our Reduce Your Use for Good grants are designed to support nonprofits to decrease their energy use and costs in order to have more funds to help their mission," said Direct Energy President and CEO Badar Khan. "We're donating up to $100,000 in grants to help make a difference in our communities, in the U.S. as well as in Canada," Khan said.
Nonprofits are required to submit a short video about their organization's mission and how they could benefit from the grant. The funds awarded must be used towards the purchase of energy-efficient products or services to help nonprofits reduce their energy use.
"Tell us about your organization and why it's important that you continue your mission," said Jeanette Sooley, coordinator for Direct Energy's Reduce Your Use for Good program. Video submissions should be no more than two minutes in duration and do not have to be professionally produced, said Sooley.
For every 2,500 "likes" that Direct Energy receives for its Facebook page, the company will select a nonprofit from the program's applicant pool to receive a $2,500 grant to help them reduce their energy use and continue their good work. "As the likes roll in, we'll keep donating until we've donated up to $100,000," said Sooley. The recipients are selected by a Direct Energy judging council.
In 2012, three nonprofits in Canada and five in the United States received grants from Direct Energy. "This year, our goal is to make an even bigger impact across North America by helping more nonprofits," said Sooley.
Organizations like the Girl Scouts of San Jacinto located in Houston, Texas, replaced the lighting in its museum facility with LED lights, which emit less damaging lighting on the museum's artifacts and in the long-term, will also amount to electricity savings. LED lights are energy-efficient and produce almost no heat in comparison to incandescent and fluorescent lighting.
To be eligible, organizations in the U.S. must have current or active IRS 501(c)(3) status, be registered with and be in good standing with the appropriate state registration agency and be in a Direct Energy service area. In Canada, the nonprofit must have a current and active Registered Charitable Number and be in a Direct Energy service area.
For more information on previous grant recipient projects or to submit your nonprofit's video, visit www.reduceyouruseforgood.com.

American Idol
Who Is Kellie Pickler from American Idol and Dancing With the Stars?
Have you been seeing her name all over the place and find yourself wondering: Who is Kellie Pickler? Kellie was a sixth place finisher on American Idol Season 5 and a 'celebrity' contestant on Dancing With the Stars 2013.
During her run on American Idol, she became known for her Southern charm, country twang, and sweet but ditzy nature. The Albemarle, NC, native also came with a heart-wrenching backstory, as she was abandoned by her mother and her father was in and out prison, so she was raised by her grandparents.
Since her time on American Idol, Kellie has had her debut album, aptly titled Small Town Girl, certified gold. Her follow-up, self-titled CD earned her a CMT Music Awards nomination. Kellie was also nominated for "Top New Female Vocalist" in the 42nd Academy of Country Music Awards and received an ASCAP Award for "Red High Heels," her debut single. The talented performer has also nabbed three Country Music Awards and several nominations for Country Music Association and Teen Choice Awards.
The 25-year-old singer, who was rated as the 14th best American Idol alum by Billboard, married songwriter Kyle Jacobs in a small ceremony on a private island in the Caribbean in 2011. Last year, the gorgeous Idol alum shaved her blonde locks on Good Morning America to show solidarity with her friend, Summer Holt Miller, who had been stricken with breast cancer.
Kellie made headlines last month when she was announced as the first American Idol alum to grace the cast of Dancing With the Stars 2013 for the show's 16th season. She was paired with dancer and choreographer Derek Hough.
"People are expecting me to be good, and I don't know if I am or not," Kellie said. "I hope people don't have too high of expectations for me, because I'm not a dancer."
Kellie's first week on Dancing With the Stars 2013 confirmed what fans expected of her anyway, as her performance of the Cha Cha with Derek garnered rave reviews from the DWTS judges. Len Goodman called it "fantastic," and a great start to the season. Bruno Tonioli said he can't wait to see Kellie dance again. And Carrie Ann Inaba loved her "sass and class." Overall, the performance earned a score of 21 out of 30.

From ancient Greek times, mathematicians have considered three famous geometric construction problems. These problems are: (1) the duplication of the cube – construct the edge of a cube whose volume is twice that of a given cube; (2) the trisection of any angle – construct an angle that equals one-third of a given angle; and (3) the squaring of a circle – construct a square whose area equals the area of a given circle. Given the tools at the time, a compass and an unmarked ruler, these problems challenged mathematicians for centuries.
The best Greek intellect was bent upon them; Arabic learning was applied to them; some of the best mathematicians of the Western Renaissance wrestled with them. Trained minds and untrained minds, wise men and cranks, all endeavoured to conquer these problems which the best brains of preceding ages had tried but failed to solve. (Cajori, 1924, p. 54)
Although these three problems are closely linked, we choose to examine the latter two problems. We must divulge that the given problems do not have solutions if we limit ourselves to constructions using only compass and straightedge. However, using curves created by other means the Greeks resolved all three problems.

The Impact of Pricing Carbon on U.S. Industry
Within manufacturing, the hardest-hit industries would be oil refining, chemicals and plastics, primary metals, and non-metallic minerals. Although the short-run output reductions would be relatively large in these industries, they shrink over time as firms adjust inputs and adopt new technologies, and profits subsequently rebound, according to the researchers.
The work, carried out by Mun S. Ho, Richard Morgenstern, and Jhih-Shyang Shih, provides detailed estimates for more than 50 industrial categories.
Richard Morgenstern Senior Fellow
Specifically, a price of $10 per ton of carbon dioxide would increase costs no more than two percent for most American industries, but there would be several exceptions. Costs would rise more than four percent for petroleum, chemical manufacturing, and cement, and between two and four percent for iron and steel mills, aluminum, and lime products. Sales of fossil fuels would decline over time, and agriculture would face modest but persistent declines in output. The service sector would be largely unaffected.
Job losses, in the short term, would be proportional to declines in output. But with time, the analysis showed, those losses would be offset by gains elsewhere in the economy.
Jhih-Shyang Shih Fellow
Distinguishing between the immediate impacts of a carbon policy and its long-term effect is extremely important, the researchers emphasized. Policy that ignores the first impacts will raise concerns about fairness and invite opposition, they warned, while plans suitable for the short term may not serve the economy well as time passes.
They also addressed the issue of leakage—the extent to which the decline in carbon emissions in this country would be replaced elsewhere in the world by industries migrating to places with little or no controls on emissions. The researchers found that about one-fourth of domestic reductions would be replaced by rises abroad.

Chelsea Sleep Center Receives Accreditation
Start Date
Chelsea, MI - Chelsea Community Hospital Sleep Center recently received program accreditation from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM).
"We are so pleased to receive this recognition from the AASM," said Mark Garwood, M.D., of Greater Ann Arbor Neurology Associates and Medical Director of the Chelsea Community Hospital Sleep Center. "It is truly a reflection of our staff's hard work and dedication to providing the best care to our patients. We strive to give our patients compassionate care in a comfortable, state-of-the-art facility, and I believe we are doing that each day."
To receive a five-year accreditation, a sleep center must meet or exceed all standards for professional health care as designated by the AASM. The accreditation process involves detailed inspection of a center's facility and staff, including an evaluation of testing procedures, patient contacts, and physician training. Additionally, the facility's goals must be clearly stated and include plans for positively affecting the quality of medical care in the community it serves.
"The American Academy of Sleep Medicine congratulates Chelsea Community Hospital Sleep Center on fulfilling the high standards required for receiving accreditation as a sleep disorders center," said Dr. Clete Kushida, AASM president. "The center is a significant resource to the local medical community and will provide academic and scientific value in addition to the highest quality care for patients suffering from sleep disorders."
Chelsea Community Hospital Sleep Center is located at in the Main Hospital at 775 S. Main Street. For more information, please call (734) 475-3963.

Almost every Tuesday night this year, political junkies everywhere have gathered by the flickering light of their computer screens. We have pored over exit polls, tallied the minutes until results came in from Vermont to Hawaii, and crunched delegate allocations.
Invariably, we wake on Wednesday morning at least as confused as we were the day before.
Dirty little secret? Many journalists hate numbers. We chose creative writing or literature courses so we could get lost in words instead of sums. But thanks to the surprisingly competitive 2012 GOP primary contest, we have been consigned to exactly the world we sought to escape.
So here we sit, pondering third parties, delegate totals, brokered-convention scenarios, and win-loss percentages. How are we expected to get our NCAA basketball brackets done in time?
Mitt Romney is all about the math. His advisers will happily share how they plan to collect the 1,144 delegates they need to win the nomination. They are even happier to outline how no one else can.
Mitt Romney (CNN)
Rick Santorum, who has survived long enough to turn this into the two-man race for the nomination that he wanted, appeals to the heart rather than the head.
Math is one thing, he said. Vision is another. If you hate numbers, that argument can be appealing.
But math may be THE thing. Santorum's folks are now letting it be known that denying Romney the numbers he needs may be their path to victory, even if the route includes a politically bloody convention floor fight in Tampa.
Since we have to pay attention to the numbers, here are a few to plug into your calculator:
495 – The number of delegates Romney has so far, according to the Associated Press. That's almost twice Santorum's number (252), nearly four times as many as Newt Gingrich (131), and more than 10 times as many as Ron Paul (48).
1358 – The number of delegates still left to harvest – including potentially big-haul states like Texas, California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and New York.
20 – The number of delegates at stake in tiny Puerto Rico, where Santorum caused a mild uproar this week by suggesting Puerto Ricans speak English as a precondition for eventual statehood. In another year, this might not hurt so much, but delegate-hunting is an exacting business.
1 million – The number of votes Romney told Fox News he has in excess of his nearest competitor so far this primary season.
3 – The number of comments Romney has made in only the past week that reminded voters of his wealth and humor challenges. Declaring Santorum to be damaged goods just before the former Pennsylvania senator clocked him in two big primaries was one of them.
41 – The percentage of Americans who said in a CBS/New York Times poll published on Monday they approve of the job President Obama is doing.
50 – The percentage of Americans who said in Reuters and Pew polls taken around the same time that they approve of the job President Obama is doing. Lesson: Pick your poison.
2 – The number of states Newt Gingrich has won.
Newt Gingrich (CNN)
20- The number of states where he has come in third place or worse... why this is a two-man race.
26,000 – The rough total of votes Santorum, Romney, and Gingrich got in Kansas caucuses – combined.
178,000 – The rough total of votes Romney, Paul, and Gingrich got in the New Hampshire primary.
Expect more twists, turns, and corkscrew outcomes that could result in fewer and fewer voters having a bigger and bigger impact as time goes on.
At least until everyone throws up their hands and goes on summer vacation.

Pacific Crest analyst Brendan Barnicle this morning trimmed his EPS estimates on Microsoft to reflect disappointing early sales of the company's Surface tablets.
"Based on feedback from component vendors, we are lowering our Surface assumptions going forward, as well as lowering estimates," he writes, while noting that some of the unit decline is offset by an expected higher ASP with the introduction of the Intel-based Surface models, expected early in 2013.
He adds that "based on channel feedback from tablet component vendors," he now sees December quarter unit sales of 1.2 million, down from 1,5 million. For the June 2013 fiscal year, he goes to 3.2 million units, from 5 million. Barnicle snips a penny from his fiscal 2013 EPS forecast to $2.75, from $2.76; for FY 2014, he goes to $3.34, from $3.35.
Even after his reduced forecast, Barnicle's forecast for Suface sales for the current quarter are well above some of the Street's more pessimistic projections.
MSFT is down 15 cents, or 0.6%, to $27.41.

Fort Wayne Police are investigating the death of an elderly woman found in her home in the 5700 block of Le Steele Boulevard late Friday afternoon.
Police were called to the home at 5:20 p.m. They found the woman unconscious; paramedics called to the home pronounced her dead. Investigators learned that family members of the woman had been unable to reach her for a few days. A family member went over to check on the female, found her unconscious, and called police.
The investigation is treating the woman's death as suspicious, so the Fort Wayne Police Homicide team began investigating her death, as is standard with all suspicious deaths, police said.
There are no suspects. Detectives canvassed the area speaking with neighbors, and crime scene units searched for any evidence.
The Allen County Coroner's Office will release the name of the woman, as well as the cause and manner of her death. Her death remains under investigation by Fort Wayne Police, the Allen County Coroner's Office and the Allen County Prosecutor's Office.
A 39-year-old Garrett man was killed Friday morning when the motorcycle he was riding crashed into the side of a tanker truck in Noble County.
Indiana State Police, who are investigating the crash, said Merlin Isaac Jr. was pronounced dead at the scene of the 10 a.m. crash. Preliminary investigation indicates that the truck was headed north on Noble County Road 600 East when it stopped at the intersection with Baseline Road.
The truck proceeded into the intersection as an eastbound 2009 Harley Davidson ridden by Isaac crested the hill immediately to the west. Isaac's motorcycle struck the truck broadside. The driver of the truck was not injured.

Structuring High Engagement & Participation in the Classroom
Faculty Conference 2011
When students genuinely care about what they are learning, the will actively engage themselves in the learning process. At the recent faculty conference, Brother Mark Orchard said, "We know when the students are most engaged in the learning process when we can get them to ask their own questions."
Getting students to engage themselves in the learning process can be a difficult task for even the most experienced teachers. According to Brother Orchard, creating a comfortable environment is the first step to getting increased student engagement. "Safety in the class room is the first principle to student engagement." He continued by saying, "As a teacher, you need to create an environment that allows the student to manifest their knowledge. Once they feel this sense of security, they will share."
Having students engaged is highly important. A student who is actively participating in class will retain much more information than a student who just goes to class and listens to what is said. Brother Orchard was passionate when he said that every student deserves a chance to ask questions and be heard.
In his closing statement, Brother Orchard delivered a powerful message to his colleagues when he said, "When my students weren't participating, it wasn't their fault."

Re: Hey chaps,help me bust my rig :)
i have read through a lot here in the last few days as well as all over the net,man its doing my head in i see guys who are overclocking and only picking up minimal in game FPS but increasing temps a fair bit for it.
I need to pick up around 10 fps in a IL2:1946 where it has a water setting of 4 that uses sm 2.0 shaders? i think ,pics here http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boa...=007783#000002
I can run with those graphics but AA and AF maxed i drop into the 12-18 zone.
Other people i am seeing with the same game and similar systems , are getting better FPS than me so i am sure i should be able to run those graphics at a higher FPS.
SLI you said optimize before instead of overclock,i should probably start there.I have nTune now if that is any good and i am going to run a 3d mark on my rig today to see where it stands.
Thanks so far for the help

Re: Hey chaps,help me bust my rig :)
Your cpu score is fine.
Your video is pretty messed up. I would try removing all video drivers using driver cleaner. And re install them. Make sure you have PCI-E as your video option in bios. (I've never used your motherboard but some have a PCI-E/PCI option). And go over any other video related options. Also you could try disabling the nTune service.
EDIT: I just noticed something else odd.
3DMark Score 1048 3DMarks
SM 2.0 Score 322 Marks
SM 3.0 Score 413 Marks
CPU Score 2137 Marks
You final score is 1048 yet your cpu score alone is 2137??
Try reinstalling 3d mark too?

Re: Hey chaps,help me bust my rig :)
PCI-E is set in Bios in Primary display adapter,i did a retest with ntune disabled but no difference.
I saw these in bios
JumperFree Config
Overclocking options
Overclock 5%
Overclock 10%
Overclock 15%
Overclock 20%
Freq Control
FSB Turbo mode [disabled]
MEM Turbo mode [disabled]
Voltage Control
Vcore volt [Auto]
Mem volt [1.90v]
i did a retest with ntune disabled but no difference,did a reboot and went into the bios,overclocking options and set it at 20 % ,ran 3dmark and the score was the same,went back into bios and set it to default again.
When i run 3DMark it does not get above a slideshow,would that be normal for a system of my specs?I downloaded the latest version of 3DMark 06 (Build 1.1.0) from Futuremark so one would expect it to be ok,maybe i might try an earlier build ?
Gave RivaTuner2.0 a run,set the fan speeds (low2d,high 3d etc) set core clock and memory clock at 450/660 for low and 520/750 for high ,all is working as per rivatuner documentation when i run tests with the hardware monitoring displays open but 3dmark is lower ..so rivatuner is showing me i have increased my card settings but actually decreased my pc output.
The 3d mark actually really surprised me it is that low,something seems wrong somewhere,especially when COD2 with settings maxed is running flawlessly,paintshop pro,photoshop etc fly along.The only thing killing my gaming at the moment is enabling the sm2.0 shaders option in IL2 1946 ,which i should be able to run well,no hassle.

I have to give credit to Bookshelves of Doom for this one.
One of my favorite books this year and perhaps in a very long time has been Christine Fletcher's Ten Cents a Dance. It's set in 1940s Chicago and follows Ruby as she becomes a taxi dancer to make money to move her family up in the world. It's beautifully rich, with a great plot, great characters, and a fantastic setting and era. Here's the cover:
Perfect! It captures a sense of time and place, and it doesn't give you too much in terms of what the story's about so that as a reader, you can make your own images.
Well, as has been a trend for a while now, the publisher has decided to change the cover for the paperback of this book. This is the paperback cover:
I'm really, really disappointed in this one. First, it kills any sense of time. Second, the male character there? He's not in the story. And really, groping on the front cover? I don't think this looks like a 17-year-old in 1940s Chicago at all. In fact, this books like every other book out recently set in contemporary times. It reminds me a lot of many of Simone Elkeles's paperbacks.
I think this is a mistake -- it's now going to have a harder time finding its audience, who may be turned off immediately by a cover that not only looks like so many others on the market, but also because it doesn't convey that it's a historical fiction that's not filled with boys groping girls (Ruby would actually be quite offended, I think!). Although I don't require my books to give me anything on the cover, when a cover is such a success because it DOES capture the essence of the story, it's disheartening to see that discarded for something generic.
What do you think? Have you seen any other hard cover to paper back cover changes that have made you cringe?

When the cover fails
I have to give credit to Bookshelves of Doom for this one.
4 comments:
I think it is a horrible horrible change. I thought the hard cover was perfect - a great sense of what the story was going to be and a great picture of Ruby (I like that she's pretty, but kind of unconventionally).ReplyDelete
Bah, hate that new cover!
*nods* That was my first thought when I saw the new cover - it looks like Perfect Chemistry! I mean, I'm not head over heels in love with the original cover (though I love the book), but it's a million times better than the new one.ReplyDelete
Uck. That is an awful cover change. I really hated the cover change for "Audrey, Wait!" -- the paperback is so less effective when booktalking to teens.ReplyDelete
Oh, you are so right! That new cover is awful for this story! Who thought that up?ReplyDelete

Clothes & Skins & Hairs..oh my!
I know, I know, I'm blogging mental the last few days but I'm on holiday and I've been shopping and I appear to have got my mojo back so I'm afraid you are just going to have to deal with it until I lose it again.
Speaking of shopping, have you been to The Seasons Story yet? I wandered around there yesterday and it's just wonderful. Sooooo many pretty things. If you haven't been yet you really need to go, I promise you won't be sorry. Among the things I grabbed while I was there was this hoodie from the sugar garden which is just too adorable not to share. It comes in lots of colours and, although you can't see it, it's open at the front so you can wear your favourite shirt underneath. I'm wearing it with pants from BOOM which I love the cut of so much and very cute shoes which were out for Collabor88 a couple of rounds ago.
All the details along with SLURLS are below as always,
Even though I subsribe to a lot of store groups in SL, I don't always read every notecard they send about new releases. Wanna know why? Because I love to go to stores after a few months and find loads of new goodies!
So first off I need to give a bit of a shout out to the best Halloween movie ever, Hocus Pocus, because when I picked the title for this post I had the version of this song in my head from that movie and I didn't realise that this lyric isn't actually in the real song, only in their version, oops. It should be though, just sayin'.
I went on a bit of a shopping spree today and accidentally got a load of things that went together so here you go!
When Collabor88 opened this month I saw the Pixel Pets from Intrigue Co. and let out an involuntary groan. I hated these things. I was obsessed with these things. I killed every single one, every single time. No matter how much I loved, played with, pet, played with, fed and generally adored those stupid things they died. I'm pretty sure I have some sort of curse because that simply can't be normal, right?
I mentioned Summerfest '13 in my last blog post and today it opened and omg it's so full of cute! I suggest maybe waiting a few days though, unless you have the mother of all computers, because the lag is pretty bad and the build and sim is so cute you will be sad if you miss it and all you can see is a mass of grey blobs.
So remember I told you how I like to take photo's in lingerie…well brace yourselves, I went a bit berserk today!

Men and women who have tried to sell a home are likely familiar with the phrase "curb appeal." Curb appeal is similar to getting ready for a big date, only you're not dressing yourself up to make a strong first impression. Instead, improving curb appeal involves dressing your home up in the hopes it makes a strong first impression on prospective buyers, many of whom will have a strong opinion about the property before they even get out of their cars to have a look around.

Becky Wise, a native Oklahoman and retired music teacher, moved to the Antlers/Rattan area in June of 2011, but opening a Goat Dairy was not in her list of plans.
"When we moved here we didn't plan on this," Becky said. "We built the barn for storage purposes and planted hay in our field. Goats were not in the realm of things we intended to do."
Boy where they wrong! When the hay was cut, Middle Mountain Dairy, a goat dairy in the Sardis Lake area, purchased the hay. Becky followed them back to help deliver the hay. That is when she got her first goat and plans started to develop.

At the end of January, News Of The World published a story about celebs Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt (a.k.a. Brangelina). The story levelled a series of allegations, including:
- the couple had agreed to separate;
- they'd consulted a lawyer who helped them reach a settlement on the division of joint assets worth £205m and custody of their six children;
- both parties signed the agreement; and
- the agreement made provision for the parties' immediate separation.
This week, however, Brangelina commenced legal proceedings against the paper for invasion of privacy. Keith Schilling of Schillings, the couple's London lawyers, said:
"The News of the World failed to meet our clients' reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets. We have therefore advised them to bring legal proceedings which they have now done."
A statement on Schillings' website adds "the false allegations are being treated as a serious misuse of private information" and cites LA Divorce Lawyer Sorrell Trope of Trope and Trope, identified in some media reports as representing the couple, as saying:
"I have had no contact from Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt. I have never met them. This is true with respect to all other members of this firm."
Schillings stressed that since the publication of the story amounted to a serious misuse of private information and breached the Press Complaints Commission Code of practice it was not required to disclose if the information was true or false.
"However in this case we can confirm unequivocally, and upon instructions, that the allegations published by the News of the World are false as well as intrusive," the firm said.
