I've used albolene for 40 years and have never found a cleanser better at removing makeup in general and waterproof mascara specifically. Put a nickel-size dollop in your hand to spread all over your face and neck. Remove with a wet face cloth. Your face will feel clean and moosturized.

This is a great product for men , the best cream you will find at a great price! No joke give it a try .

wonderful product!
I've used these for YEARS....always got them at Walgreens but now they don't carry them....which is too bad. There are 65 round/flat cotton pads in this container and all you need to use is one pad to remove all eye makeup....the pads are already moist you don't pour anything on a cotton ball them like the previous comment said....this product WORKS and you don't need to rub hard and it dosen't leave a greasy film after you're done. The smaller container is great for travel too.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing public health problem owing to its prevalence as well as its high morbidity and mortality rates. The identification of high-risk populations is of great importance particularly because the onset of T2D can be prevented or delayed by lifestyle modifications. Among high-risk populations, women with previously diagnosed gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at particularly high risk of developing T2D. The success in reducing the occurrence of T2D among women with previous GDM could be achieved only if appropriate preventive measures are undertaken. According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA), lifestyle modifications aimed at reducing body weight and increasing physical activity are recommended and women are encouraged to be breastfeeding their infants. Certain factors have been suggested as determinants of behavioral practices in women with prior GDM including cognitive and environmental factors. A better understanding of these issues is essential for developing effective preventive strategies and possibly reducing the prevalence of T2D in the population.The overall objective of this research project is to study preventive practices among women with prior GDM and their impact on the T2D-related risk profile.

On 13 November 2010, Whytes Irish Art Auctioneers of Dublin held an auction of 'History, Literature & Collectibles'. Whytes has been a Dublin institution since 1783, so I am familiar with the auction house by reputation. Also, when I am in Dublin, I often pass the small storefront of the auction house on Molesworth Street, as I make my way from my favourite morning breakfast spot (Carluccio's) over to the National library. When I returned to Canada I looked up their website to get a better idea of the kind of items they put up for auction, and I registered for their email newsletter.
The site had a catalogue of the pieces which were to be auctioned on 13 November, and had information about registration, pre-bidding, and online 'live' participation. I looked through the catalogue, pausing now and then to gawk at the artifacts which were way out of reach for me, including some extraordinary documents and medal collections, but also came across some affordable items which would not completely wipe out my piggy bank. The artifacts are grouped into 'Lots'; some lots consist of only one item, some include several pieces, in addition to the featured item. I excitedly showed my husband what I had found, and he encouraged me to participate.
Registration for the auctions is quite straight forward, but includes a credit check of sorts before you are allowed to participate. At first I felt a little offended, but then realized they were just trying to avoid those persons who might madly bid hundreds, or even thousands, of Euros for items which they could not actually afford (an episode of Seinfeld comes to mind here). A few days after I applied, I was sent an email informing me that I had been approved to bid.
Three items were on my wish list:
1) A circa 1880 "God Bless Ireland" embroidered flag
2) A pair of Maid of Erin silver buckles, circa 1920
3) A 'Lot' of books including Reverend Patrick Woulfe's Irish Names and Surnames, 1923.
There were a few glitches with the online bidding process. I lost out on the silver buckles because my bid did not register, but I won the bid for the flag, the book, and a second 'Lot' of books as well. Last Thursday, the items arrived. They were wrapped so well that unpacking them was akin to breaking into Fort Knox; however, now that I have them I feel incredible gratitude for the opportunity to own them.
|Currently, I am investigating the history of this extraordinary embroidered flag.
The collection of books is outstanding. In addition to the Woulfe book, there are two others about Irish Christian names and surnames, both produced by the Registrar-General for Ireland, dating to 1901 and 1909, respectively. All three are filled with lots of useful information, such as ethnology, derivation, and distribution, so if you have any Irish surnames you're researching, please send me an email and I will very gladly look them up for you.
Long story short, since this is a tips post, the tips are:
1. Seek out reputable auction sites with good reviews, and attend live auctions if you are able, or attend online 'live', if that option is available.
2. Take a chance. Most auction houses have items priced for museum budgets, or for the wallets of the rich and famous, but many also have available some very reasonably priced pieces.
3. Set your budget limit and do not exceed it! A live auction is very exciting and you can easily get caught up in that excitement, so know your limit, and stay within it.
4. Invest in history.
You may come across something extraordinary which connects to your family, or at the very least to their country of origin.

12Tess Jacquez: Alumni (Class of 2011)
Sport(s): Volleyball, Softball
Pescadero, California – Pescadero High School
Major: Chemistry
How did you find out about Beloit? Did you know a lot about Beloit when you first visited campus?
"I wanted to go to a small liberal arts school away from home and a friend recommended it. I randomly applied. I didn't know anything about Beloit College when I visited and it was actually my first time to the Midwest."
We are focusing a lot on Liberal Arts in Practice at Beloit; so as part of what you practice(d) name one aspect that you took away(will take) from being a Beloit student-athlete that you use in your everyday life.
"Dedication and teamwork has definitely stuck with me through the time since graduation and I hope to keep that mind frame throughout life. I know I was asked for one, but these two aspects are connected in my mind."
What (if any) accolades did you receive (Academically/Athletically) while being a student-athlete?
"Chemistry departmental honors, Blanket Award, Joe Kobylka Award, 1st and 2nd All-Conference team for volleyball, John H. Nair Chemistry award, Deans List, Academic All-Conference (I can't remember how many times I got these last two awards, sorry!)"
If you could name one class or professor (mentor) that really meant something to you while at Beloit, who or what would that be?
"The professor that has probably impacted my life and career the most is Dr. George Lisensky. From dressing up in a robe and teaching a class as if it were in the 1800s to being my internship advisor at University of Wisconsin's materials research engineering and science center, he provided me with an understanding of chemistry as well as a realization of multitude of ways that chemistry can be used and that chemistry relies on, and is relied on by, so many other areas of study. I am now at University of Oregon in Eugene, OR pursuing a Masters in Chemistry with an emphasis in semiconductors and photovoltaics due to my two favorite classes that I took at Beloit College (that he happened to teach), solid state chemistry and nanochemistry."
Name one of the most rewarding experiences you took part in while at Beloit College?
"After three years (two second place finishes to SNC), the volleyball team beat SNC twice in a week and took the conference tournament after having the same record as Monmouth College, the conference champions. Attending NCAA regionals was a dream. Although it was sad we lost, the opportunity to play Washington Univ. in St. Louis was phenomenal."
Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? - Name a career goal/aspiration you strive for.
"I strive to be working at a company that produces solar cells, playing softball and volleyball in my free time, and being in another country. Overall I just want to be happy and have amazing people around me."
"In ONE word I would you sum up Beloit College as- Un-regrettable."

Travel with me on my journey to learn the art of Italian cooking. I am not talking about the Americanized version of Italian food, but authentic Italian food. The kind of food you could eat in an Italian kitchen in Italy, in a small village or a bustling city. The kind of food that makes you feel warm inside and longing for more. The kind of food that most people don't understand what it takes to make because they lack the passion, but love to eat!
My grandparents came to the US as immigrants in 1923 and 1929 and settled in the Mt. Washington area of Pittsburgh. They brought with them the village experience and cooking style from Campolieto, Italy. My father, one of three sons, learned to cook from his parents and I learned from him. All of them have passed on but I know the few basics. My desire is to learn more.
So join me on my quest. I hope to find, try and review recipes that I can collect and gather from a variety of sources. I welcome all recipes from readers as well, but that doesn't mean I will try them all. I am working with a food budget for a family of four so I am going to have to limit the amount of experiments I try!
Oh yeah, it doesn't help that I have a son who doesn't like red sauce unless it's on pizza or, shudder, from a can of Spaghetti O's. Must be the German part of him. One day that boy will like Italian food!

Video: Collins Excuses Himself From Caucus ... With Democrats
WASHINGTON, DC - The nation's capitol can be a daunting and confusing place for anyone, even incoming members of Congress.
An article in Roll Call titled, "Dude, Where's My Caucus" reports the following regarding Western New York Congressman-elect Chris Collins:
"Day Two of of the lame-duck and the freshman gaffes keep coming.
"A Democratic staffer camped out at this morning's caucus meeting for Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's big reveal witnessed a panicky exit by a perplexed newcomer.
"When they welcomed Leader Pelosi and everyone stood up to applaud, a frantic new member got up - breakfast plate in hand - rushed over to me and asked, 'Wait ... what meeting is this?!' I said, 'This is the Democratic Caucus.' He said, 'I'm in the wrong meeting. Where are the Republicans meeting?' the anonymous tipster said of the mini-drama.
"The confused caucuser? Rep.-elect Chris Collins, R-N.Y.
"A Collins aide suggested it was all part of the boss's master plan.
" 'Congressman-elect Collins believes very strongly in reaching bipartisan solutions to fix this country's problems. What better way to accomplish that than introducing himself to his colleagues on the other side of the aisle,' the budding spinmeister assured HOH."
Collins' Chief of Staff Chris Grant told WGRZ-TV that Collins confirmed to him that the incident occurred pretty much as reported, and that Collins was in good humor about it.
WEB EXTRA: Collins spoke with Gannett Reporter Brian Tumulty on Thursday. Video is attached to this story but the two did not discuss Collins walking into the wrong caucus.
However, Collins later told Gannett: "When I saw Nancy Pelosi come in and get her standing ovation, it was apparent I was in the wrong room.'I just excused myself and found my way to the right meeting. They seemed to want to make a big deal of it. As my chief of staff said, we are going to work in a bipartisan way. It was a good opportunity for me to introduce myself to all the Democrats.''
Just before that, Collins had attended a meeting for newly elected House members of both parties. He left that session talking to a "very friendly'' new lawmaker from California who turned out to be a Democrat, Collins said.
"I just walked out of the meeting with him down the hall and followed him into the Democrats' caucus,'' Collin said. "Actually, I had breakfast with him.''

CAPE VINCENT A handful of volunteers will work through the next few days to give the Tibbetts Point Lighthouse Hostel a more modern look.
Donnie A. Morgan, regional hostel operations manager for Hostelling International USA, said the local hostel is the only one of the agencys 54 hostels that is getting spruced up.
We have vintage 70s interior here in the little building, the former keepers house, Ms. Morgan said. Were going for a basic, clean look that will be more bright and welcoming.
A couple of volunteers worked Wednesday to scrape paint off portions of the house and its porch, preparing for other volunteers to paint and complete other small tasks by weeks end.
The dorms are in good shape already, Ms. Morgan said. We have two six-bed dorms and two private rooms: one with a bunk bed and one with three beds.
Guests also are free to use a common kitchen when they stay at the hostel, 33439 County Route 6.
While some area residents may be aware that a hostel is adjacent to the historic lighthouse, Ms. Morgan said, many people often are unaware that this hostel and others in the state exist. The next-closest hostels are in Syracuse and Buffalo. While a few others can be found in the Northeast, there are many along the West Coast from California to Canada.
The Tibbetts Point Lighthouse Hostel typically opens for the season around July 1 and runs through the second week of September.
The nightly rate is only $25, or $75 for the family room.
The hostel, established in the 1827 keepers quarters in the late 1970s, sits on a 3-acre property where Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River meet.
This particular hostel was popular for cyclists, Ms. Morgan said. The group number has fallen off in the last 10 years.
With a nearby mode of transportation for international travel, she said, the hostel could be utilized more. Ms. Morgan said she hopes people who travel to or from Canada on Hornes Ferry to Wolfe Island, Ontario, will stop at the Tibbetts Point Lighthouse Hostel.
The hostel typically accommodates 300 to 400 overnight stays per season.
These days, you dont see a lot of people who already have hostel memberships, Ms. Morgan said.
If you hadnt had an experience with hostelling, you werent likely to know about them. Hostelling is based on shared accommodations and experiences. Thats how you find out about hidden treasures in the area, she said.
While the hostel is operated by Hostelling International USA, the property is owned by the town of Cape Vincent. Ms. Morgan said she appreciates improvements the town recently made to the water system.
Meanwhile, she said, she will still accept volunteer help this week. Anyone interested may call her at 1-804-384-8682.

Education Report Card: Did your kid's school make the grade?
EUGENE, Ore. -- Thursday marked the release of Oregon's annual state report cards for K-12 public schools in districts throughout the state.
The report cards give an overview of school performance in a range of areas, like student achievement, attendance, graduation and participation. These numbers are all a part of determining a school's overall rank within the state.
From there, schools are placed into one of three categories that are reminiscent of a primary schoolteacher's outstanding, satisfactory or needs improvement.
In Oregon:
- 31% of schools were rated "Outstanding."
- 59% of schools were rated "Satisfactory."
- 10% of schools were rated "In Need of Improvement."
The Director of Secondary Education for Eugene Public Schools, Laurie Moses, told KVAL news that North Eugene High School was rated "In Need of Improvement." Moses said that these ratings help educators in creating improvement plans for each school year and some schools need more improvement than others.
"What I would say about North (Eugene High School) is that we have made some great decisions in the district in the past year, and we are in fact differentiating our schools with the expectation that that additional support will really help them." Moses said.
Moses added that the district takes note of the state's ratings, but that there are measures conducted on the local level as well.
On the other end of the spectrum, Centennial Elementary in Springfield was named a "model" school on this year's report card. Principal Mike Donnelly said that he is proud of the accomplishment.
"It's a big deal and we're pretty excited but we're still kind of reacting to, wow! What does this mean?" Donnelly said.
Donnelly said he can't pinpoint what exactly lead to their success, but rather attributed the great rating to his team of educators.
"What we have here is a staff that works, as all staffs do across Oregon, really hard. They're dedicated, caring." said Donnelly.
Both Moses and Donnelly agree that school ratings give districts a big picture of how they are doing, but monitoring individual student growth is essential, too.
"It's a considerably different way of measuring success," Moses said, and one that will be included on next year's report cards. The state is embracing a new model for education. It aims to be better coordinated, more student-centered, and more focused on key outcomes.
"That's a good thing for education," Donnelly said. "That's what we're really all about."
To find out how your school placed on the state report card visit the Oregon Department of Education's website and select your school district.

On display at Zions Bank in Price is a collection stunning jewelry, intricate baskets, handmade dolls, Katsinas, and sand paintings.
This 50 year old collection, courtesy of The Utah Museum of Natural History, is part of an entire collection of over 600 pieces from Dorothy Haslam. Haslam followed her passion by visiting trading posts throughout the Southwest acquiring beautiful works of Native American Art from the Navajo, Ute, Apache, Hopi, Zuni, and other tribal nations.
Traveling Treasures, a statewide exhibit, is sharing this collection with all of Utah's citizens at most Zions main offices. Errol Holt, branch manager of Zions Bank in Price, is proud to have these treasures visit his branch office.
"I like it," he says. "It is nice to see the cultures of other people."
Pictured here is a ANGWUSNASOMTAKA (crow mother katsina). Traditionally, katsina dolls helped Hopi girls identify the many different katsina spirits that visit their villages. In the background is a mudhead storyteller, a painted storyteller and a painted gourd.
They will be on display for one month.

While most of us have donned more than a few outfits we'd rather not be reminded of, there's a rare breed of skilled dressers who are almost immune to sartorial slip-ups. Just take Liv Tyler, the subject of this month's Style Spotlight, for example. We imagine the actress doesn't experience sartorial woes often, given that she simply never gets it wrong when it comes to fashion. Whether she's going for all-out glamour on the red carpet or a classic look on the streets, she has a knack for choosing utterly stylish pieces that perfectly flatter her enviable figure. Besides watching for the release of her next movie-the sci-fi indie flick Robot and Frank, which comes out next year-we'll be anxiously awaiting even more chic appearances from the lovely Tyler in the near future. For now, we hope you enjoy some of her best ensembles as much as we do!
When looking at Tyler's repertoire, it's clear that she's truly mastered the art of streamlined dressing. She's restrained in a thoughtful way, an ethos that is applied to both the clean silhouettes she picks, as well as the way she stocks her closet. "I have started to shop less, only buying pieces that are classic and will last me a very long time," she says, revealing a minimalist attitude worth appreciating. We adore the way she executes these uncluttered looks, like the outfit she wore to The Ledge after-party in New York this summer (top row, right). Our style subject looked ravishing in a sleek Stella McCartney frock and Christian Louboutin heels, plus we love her vivid orange lip, which created a fantastic contrast against the electric blue dress. We're also crazy about the unfussy ensemble she wore to a party celebrating Target's five-year anniversary of the GO International collections in New York earlier this year (bottom row, right). For the event, Tyler chose an Opening Ceremony pleated frock (it reminds us of a grown-up version of her skirt in Empire Records) and accessorized with a Miu Miu bag and Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony boots. Of course, Tyler is equally adept at constructing classic outfits for daytime, as demonstrated by the ensemble she wore out and about in New York last month (large image, far right). We fully approve of her always-in-style combination of a Marc Jacobs trench coat, Proenza Schouler striped top, Rag & Bone's Zipper Jeans ($198), and Lanvin ballet flats-it's a truly great, go-anywhere look!
Now, our spotlighted style maven doesn't always reach for timeless classics-au contraire! We've spotted Tyler in a couple noteworthy ensembles that show off a bit of her edgier side too! First up is the can't-miss photo-print dress she wore to the Givenchy S/S 12 show in Paris earlier this week, a visually intriguing piece from said house's S/S 12 menswear collection (top row, right). Interestingly enough, this isn't the first time Tyler's scoured the men's department-remember her amazing Rottweiler shirt, also by Givenchy? We're also head-over-heels for the way she spiced up all-noir pieces at the after-party for Friends with Benefits in New York this summer (bottom row, left). She opted for a Givenchy blazer, Proenza Schouler top, Opening Ceremony Cut Out Skirt ($60), and Lanvin bag, but it was the way she showed off a hint of skin with a sheer top and punched up the whole look via canary yellow heels that made this an outfit to remember.
If you are a fan of Liv Tyler's supremely chic approach to dressing, then you'll be thrilled to know we found a bevy of must-have pieces to ensure putting together likeminded looks is a breeze. First things first: clean, streamlined silhouettes are a key part of Tyler's wardrobe, so we'd like to direct you to Eli Tahari's Evette Sleeveless Stretch Sheath Dress ($348), which has a sultry, body-skimming silhouette like Tyler's Stella McCartney pick and is great for a cocktail party. If you'd prefer a less body-conscious choice, Rachel Zoe's Cap Sleeve Back Dress ($325) and Tiby's Tweedy Cap Sleeve Dress ($398) are both investment-worthy picks; just be sure to style either frock with a pair of opaque tights and lace-up wedge boots, like Deena & Ozzy's Leather Cutout Wedge Boots ($129), for a Tyler-approved fall ensemble. Additionally, we recommend snagging a camel coat pronto, like AK Annie Klein's Long Double Breasted Hooded Coat ($250) or J. Crew Encore Cotton-Twill Trench Coat ($400), as it's a wardrobe essential that never goes out of style!
If you're interested in more experimental outfits, we have a few Tyler-like picks for you as well! To recreate her black-on-black sheer moment, try either Robert Rodriguez's Beaded Silk Blouse ($275) or Alexander Wang's Sheer Sport Shirt ($450) with a slim skirt (we happen to like her exact Opening Ceremony pick or Halogen's Ponte Knit Pencil Skirt ($59), which is a more affordable option). Next, to liven up your all-noir look, follow in Tyler's footsteps and incorporate a brightly colored heel-Topshop's Rococo Crossover Strap Sandals ($110) should do the trick! Finally, if you're looking to turn heads, definitely don't miss Tibi's Rococo Print Silk Twill Cap Sleeve Dress ($462), which features an abstract photo print that is sure to get a lot of attention this season and give you that Liv Tyler-inspired look!-Erin Fitzpatrick

Critter Control has Virginia offices in Northern Shenandoah, Northern Virginia, Richmond, Virginia Beach, Charlottesville
In the springtime especially, birds start migrating up north and search out a place to build their nests. Birds look for places that provide shelter from weather elements and locations that are high off the ground to keep their young safe from predators. Sometimes these locations include decks, garages, soffits, sheds and other areas that are less than desirable. If birds are not removed immediately, they can cause a lot of damage and attract other birds, which is a why implementing a strategic bird removal plan is critical. Removing the bird's nest is a start to bird removal, but you will want to contact a bird removal specialist in the Virginia area to ensure the birds do not come back.
Bird removal encompasses more than just relating troublesome birds in the Virginia area. It includes bird relocation, fixing damage to structures (such as repairing soffit) and preventing birds from returning. Relocating birds can be a challenge since they can quickly fly away. A bird removal specialist from the Virginia Critter Control will know how to remove certain types of birds. This may include moving their food sources and moving nests. A bird removal expert will also repair any damage and modify structures to prevent birds from entering in the future.
It is not recommended to shoot birds since there are many laws and regulations in the Virginia that control what is and is not lawful in bird removal. A bird removal specialist is trained on the relocation and prevention of birds in a manner that is safe for the birds and for all people involved.
Contact your local Virginia Critter Control bird removal expert if you suspect a bird problem.

Thank you for the story on upcoming New Mexico Centennial events in the Dec. 29 "Diversions," however you missed an important one.
The Los Alamos County Council enthusiastically supported the creation of a Historic Homestead Tour in Los Alamos, outside of Department of Energy land.
In seven locations, 17 signs describing the history and extent of pre-Manhattan Project homesteads will be installed.
This tour was selected as a New Mexico Centennial project, appropriately so as homesteading was the principal activity during 1912 in the location we think of as Los Alamos.
A ceremony dedicating the tour, planned for May 18, is a New Mexico Centennial event. This day was chosen because it is close to the date when President Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act in 1862.
Los Alamos' dedication ceremony will be listed, along with other events around the U.S., on the website of the Homestead National Monument of America as part of the sesquicentennial celebration.
Gerry Strickfaden
Chair, Fuller Lodge/Historic

RVCAloha: ANP Artist DMOTE and Soul paint a new mural at Keolu Skatepark in Kailua, Hawaii
The RVCA Rain or Shine UK tour takes the team to skate London.
Part 2: RVCAloha part 2 with Dino Adrian, Alex Knost, Beau Foster, Davey Cathels, Ellis Ericson, Jay Davies, Kalani David and Danny Fuller.
RVCA is the brainchild of company Founder and President, PM Tenore. Transcending the boundaries of traditional action sports apparel, RVCA is a design-driven lifestyle brand free from passing trends. Appearing as a natural on the shelves of boutiques as on those of a local skate shop, RVCA is brought together by a group of like-minded individuals from various subcultures, a collaboration of sorts, a lifestyle within itself.
PM Tenore's intention from the very beginning has been to create a platform for RVCA, which combines art, music, fashion and a modern lifestyle in an original way. At the forefront of this vision has been RVCA's Artist Network Program (ANP)-a venture established to showcase the talents of accomplished as well as unknown artists who inspire our generation and push the boundaries of creative excellence.
Established to promote the genuine integrity of RVCA's subcultures while simultaneously giving back to the community, RVCA in essence is redefining the way the market views art and fashion as represented through the balance of opposites and how they coexist: water, oil; air, land; destruction, industrialization; art, science; foreign, domestic; order, chaos; past, present.

Tis why I don't like PHP.

Geez, keep this up and Im going to have to start using JSP
Tis why I don't like PHP.

Open Source is starting to get a bad name when it comes to security these days :-\
no worse than other development styles, plus we fix bugs quicker...
[quote author=Lovechild link=board=9;threadid=4295;start=0#42522 date=1027441016]
no worse than other development styles, plus we fix bugs quicker...
i'm not saying it's worse and yes, we do fix them quicker
however, it doesn't matter
if u read articles about security in open source and security in proprietary code they will include links to stories like this.. about vulnerabilities in PHP, Apache, ...
they won't mention however that fixes are usually out the next day (if it takes that long in the first place). in fact, they won't even mention the fixes at all. they will just say: "hey look, they had vulnerabilities too"
now your probably thinking "so what? it's obvious that these sites suck and are of no value"
yes that's true, but the people we are trying to convert to open source are exactly the kind of people who read those sites
Well I normally convert my friends and they all know my servers track record of getting succesfully hacked... and they of course know how stable my PC is. So I don't really care about many of those theorical security bugs as most of them really are.
Lovechild: when big software like Apache, OpenSSH, PHP, BIND, etc. all appear on BugTraq it IS bad. In the case of a commercial application, someone who knows nothing (IT, MCSE, etc.) thinks "Oh, it's because it's such a big app and has so much features; it's normal that they have a security flaw once in a while." But when it's about open-source, the reaction can be more like: "What can you expect from people that are not paid? They don't know their stuff and they probably put these intentionally!"
I personally don't know many people who actually read BugTraq (or similar services) and those that do know that nobody is perfect least of all programmers.
The problem really is that people who don't know dick about software print about "serious" bugs in software when ever there's a slow news day. And if you notice it, most of those news end with the message:
"A fix has already been made, get it here"
unless of course they are reporting about M$ in which case I have never seen such a message. or that, this is a bug scheduled to be fixed in the next Service pack...

Elizabeth "Liz" Weber
Hometown: Suwanee, Georgia
Major/Minor: Communications and Spanish
Activities at OU and in Atlanta: OUradio (Station Manager), Stormy Petrel Newspaper (Editor-in-Chief), Omicron Delta Kappa Honor and Leadership Fraternity (Secretary), Order of Omega Greek Honor Society (Secretary), Tri-Sigma Sorority (Treasurer), Promotions Coordinator for Q100 radio station in Atlanta, Girl Scouts of America volunteer
Interests: I recently took up an interest in running and started signing up for 5K races as a way to get in shape. Now I'm addicted, and I'm running a pre-qualifier for the Peachtree Road Race. Volunteering has always been a big thing in my family. When I get a chance to break away from my schedule, I volunteer with my mom at a local senior center, help my dad with his various recycling programs and help my old Girl Scout leaders with their projects and events. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends on a regular basis. Since I've started my career at Oglethorpe, I've developed a taste for photography. I took an introductory photography course my freshman year, and now I always have a camera with me. I love taking candid pictures of people because it really shows their personality. The photos serve as great memories to look back on years later and say, "What in the world was I doing?"
Favorite thing about OU: The community. I wanted to attend a university where I wasn't just a number and could actually interact with my professors and make an impact on campus. Since my freshman year, I've grown as a leader, student, friend and community member. I truly believe it's from the hands-on attitude that the university takes as an approach to learning.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: It never ceases to amaze me how interconnected we are with the city. You take one wrong turn on a back road, and you end up in an unknown area with an amazing coffee shop. Do this on a nice day with friends, and you've got an excuse to get out and explore. Wherever I'm going, it's always an adventure.
Interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: I actually found my internship on a flier in Robinson Hall on campus my freshman year. When I started at Oglethorpe, I wanted to be a print journalism major. By my second semester, I had completely changed my mind and had no ideas on what to do next. I saw a Q100 internship flyer on one of the bulletin boards and decided that I should give it a shot. What's the worst radio could do to me? Well, two years later, I work part time in the promotions department at Q100. Radio has brought out the best in me, and I have a hard time picturing myself in another industry. I love promotions and I think it's my calling, at least for now.
Fun facts about you: Music is a big part of my life. I love going to concerts. If there's a band I love, my best friend and I will camp out before a show just to get to stand next to the barricades. I like napping. I think it's the greatest thing in the world, especially when it's raining outside and you have nothing else to do. I was in chorus for six years, I played piano for five years, and now I've started playing guitar. I'm taking guitar lessons through Oglethorpe's music program, which allows students to take lessons from a designated instructor and receive course credit. I 'm a cheap date. All I need to be happy is a good book in the park, a sunny day or a car ride with the windows down and music blasting.
Angela McByrd
Major: Mathematics
Activities at OU and in Atlanta: Vice President of Service for Alpha Phi Omega: National Service Fraternity
Interests: Math, teaching, education reform, piano, trumpet, reading, and traveling
Favorite thing about OU: The Center for Civic Engagement. I love the fact that Oglethorpe is very involved with the Atlanta community and has a center solely dedicated to allowing students the opportunity to take part in so many wonderful community service projects.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: Atlanta is such a beautiful city and the people here are very friendly. Plus, the weather here is much nicer than the weather in Chicago! Atlanta is a major college city and there are always students to meet who will have something in common with you, whether it is a Greek organization, the city they are from, or even just a food that they like.
Some interesting experiences you've had at OU: I have had the privilege of participating in a research class involving artificial intelligence and predicting the stock market. I presented my research at Oglethorpe University's annual Liberal Arts Symposium. It was definitely a great experience, and now I know how to invest a small amount of money in the stock market! Another interesting experience would have to be working at the OU Museum of Art. If I was not a student worker here, I might not not take the time to actually come up and visit. Through working at the Museum, I have learned so much about various forms of art and have been able to get back into the habit of sketching.
Fun facts about you: According to my friends, I tend to know a lot of random information. Math is as essential to my life. I attended a public boarding high school, the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy, which allowed me to gain so many great experiences and understandings in the field. I am really big on community service, hence the reason I love the CCE and I am a member of Alpha Phi Omega: National Service Fraternity. I make it a habit to give back to my community through service, especially to children in the community because they will become our future leaders. I want to work in Education at some point in the future. I am in the process of starting a non-profit organization, called Leaves for STEMS, that will provide textbook scholarships for college students and in exchange, these college students will dedicate their time to tutoring and mentoring middle and high school students in math and science.
John Burke
Interests: Music, jazz piano, traveling, public affairs, event planning and international relations
Favorite thing about OU: Small campus size, tight-knit community, excellent foreign languages department, superb Atlanta location, gorgeous landscape and rigorous academics
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: Jazz scene, night life, unlimited possibilities, the city of Buckhead and the Peachtree Road Race
Some interesting experiences you've had at OU: I participated in the OU Study Abroad program to Spain. I greatly improved my Spanish, traveled, nd immersed myself in the culture. It changed my life! I co-founded the male ensemble group, The Santiago 4, which has performed s both on and off OU's campus. I had an internship in the Spring of 2011 at the Latin American Association where I worked in the Public Relations and Communications department. The Association is only 5-10 minutes away from Oglethorpe! I created and hosted the OUr Music Appreciation Week from March 7-11. Throughout the week, student and faculty musicians performed daily and showcased what a wonderful music presence we have on Oglethorpe's campus. It was a success!
Fun facts about you: My favorite thing to do on a Friday night is have a Blues jam session. I love speaking Spanish and am currently attempting to learn Italian. I plan to attend graduate school and obtain a Masters degree in Public Administration. My dream in life is to be the U.S. Ambassador to Spain.
Jessica Sundstom
Hometown: Tallahassee, Florida
Major: English/Art History
Activities at OU and in Atlanta:
I work for OU Students Abroad as the International Programs Student Coordinator. I take belly dancing lessons at The Hearth. I'm a member of Get Active OU!'s kickboxing class. In addition, I work with the International Club. I am presently trying to set up a program called SHIPP (Southern Hospitality International Partners Program) which would pair foreign students studying at OU with American OU undergraduates.
Interests: My two biggest interests/activities are cooking and reading. I love to travel, and I love to encourage other people to travel. Art is a really big thing for me. I don't have as much as I'd like to make it, which is why it's so great to study it. There's a set period of time that I have to dedicate to doing what I love.
Favorite thing about OU: I love my job on campus and I love my classes. My professors are the best! They're so intelligent and know their content areas so well.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: I really like that there are so many museums and fairs. It's also really great that there are all these suburbs with their own activities, like craft fairs and Ren Faire. The High Museum has had some really impressive exhibits like borrowed art from the Louvre and the Dali exhibit. Even better, they have a College Night (which makes it more affordable to go). The Woodruff Arts Center is a great example of modern architecture and the skyline is beautiful. I guess what I like is the inclusion of both the big and the small; we have the big city with a smaller city feel.
Some interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: The short term OUSA trip to Greece in 2009 was really great. It was a lot of work, but it was also so much fun. We went to places that have always fascinated me, like Delphi, and to places I had never heard of before like the sacred island of Delos. Greece was really beautiful and the people were so nice. Also, my part time job at OU working for OUSA is also such a unique opportunity. Dr. Collins offered me this job after I had returned from studying abroad in Italy. I do consultations and my duties range from running our Facebook page to meeting study abroad representatives to maintaining communication with our current partnerships. Before this job, my plan was to go to law school. Now I've decided that I want to work in administrative study abroad. I know that when it's time to apply for grad schools or a job with another university or third-party provider, my career experience here at OU will put me above other candidates because my responsibilities here are so diverse.
Fun facts about you: When I have more time (and money), I'd like to start a cooking blog. I'd also love to be an author, though I think I would publish under a pseudonym. I'm going to start training for a marathon soon.
Jamison "Jamie" King
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: I love living in Atlanta. There is always something to do, and there are so many opportunities here that I would not have in a smaller city.
Some interesting experiences you've had at OU: Oglethorpe has given me various leadership opportunities. I serve on the executive boards of Phi Delta Epsilon and Kappa Sigma, I serve on the NCAA A-team and I am a Resident Assistant. Since Oglethorpe is a small college, there are more opportunities to get involved and be a leader on campus. The Atlanta location allows for numerous internship and career opportunities. Also, our Center for Civic Engagement allows students to give back to the local community on a regular basis.
Fun facts about you: I am studying to become a doctor. I lifeguard during the summer.
Patrick Cansfield
Interests: Sports, Fishing
Favorite thing about OU: Access to professors whenever help is needed, the golf experience and greek life.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: The weather, the people, and the access to everything within Atlanta. It's also easy to get to professional sporting events like Thrashers, Falcons and Hawks games and the NCAA SEC Championships.
Some interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: Whenever I have needed help in the classroom, my professors were just an e-mail or a call away. The golf team has taken me around the country to new states and new courses. I have been able to play some of the best courses in the Atlanta area including one of the most exclusive clubs in America, the Peachtree Golf Club, which is right across the street.
Whitney Daly
Interests: I love reading and learning about different cultures. I also enjoy doing yoga, playing the flute and singing.
Favorite thing about OU: I love that I can study all my interests at Oglethorpe. I'm currently working on an Honor's thesis about the French and Spanish musical influences in Bizet's Carmen. My topic allows me to combine my love of the Spanish language and culture with my love of music. I could not have created an Honor's thesis like that anywhere else.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: The artistic community. Atlanta has so many opportunities to see the artistic masterpieces at museums like the High Museum of Art. We also have the spectacular Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, which is just a MARTA ride away. I love going to hear their concerts.
Some interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: Last semester, I spent four months in Madrid, Spain at one of our partnership schools. After studying the Spanish culture and language for many years, I was finally able to immerse myself in them. I did not just learn about the country and its people; I learned a lot about myself. I also learned that I could handle anything that came my way.
Fun facts about you: I teach Spanish to elementary school children during the summer.
Ashely Causey
Interests: I recently got hooked on blogging. In addition to that, I enjoy singing in the shower, dancing behind closed doors, writing poetry, falling asleep under trees on a sunny day, baking sweets, helping others and enjoying life.
Favorite thing about OU: There are too many things that I love about OU to just pick one favorite thing. I would have to say that one of my favorite things is the campus landscape and architecture. This constantly reminds me to cheer up when I'm feeling stressed or blue because I'm surrounded by such beauty and mystique.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: My favorite thing about living in Atlanta is that there are so many opportunities that are right outside our campus. There is always something available that you can use as a tool to gain more knowledge and experience in whatever major you decide to pursue.
Some interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: Oglethorpe makes it extremely easy for students to get involved with whatever their passions may be and gain practical experience for the future. As a first year student, I was able to become a telephone fundraiser operator for Oglethorpe University's Alumni Relation Office and become a student board member on the Young Non-profit Professional Network of Atlanta. Oglethorpe challenges students to not only ask "why?" but to also ask "why not?"
Fun facts about you: I have a kitten named Friday. I like to collect random, quirky things, and I have a love affair with vintage clothing and accessories.
Justin Sabree
Major: Psychology
Activities at OU and in Atlanta: Resident Assistant, Event Coordinator for Psi-Chi, Senator in the student government, President of Get Active Oglethorpe! fitness club
Interests: Psychology, dancing, video games, working out, photography and photo editing
Favorite thing about OU: I love the sense of community on campus! Whenever something good happens, you're always within 15 feet of a familiar face to share your good news with. People on campus make a genuine effort to support one another, and that support has helped me grow so much as a person.
Favorite thing about living in Atlanta: While Atlanta is brimming with clubs, museums and restaurants, it also has a wide variety of internships and research opportunities. Since starting my career at Oglethorpe, I've had two internships. Those internships have helped put my education to good use and confirmed my passion for my major.
Some interesting experiences you've had at Oglethorpe: One of my most exciting on-campus experiences has been receiving the title of Lord Oglethorpe (our version of homecoming king). Also, it was surprisingly fun doing a couple of acts for our campus-wide charity drag show! We raised over $1,000 for ChrisKids, and I got to work with the dance team on my performance. My most rewarding experience on campus has definitely been being a Resident Assistant. I love organizing floor parties and campus-wide programs.
Fun facts about you: I worked at Bruster's Ice Cream for four years, my family has five cats and I've been to Australia and four countries in Europe.

WRSI Helmets
- 5 Items
- 5 Items
The history of this project, and hence, a safer helmet for non-motorized water sports, especially the extreme sport of whitewater kayaking/rafting, can be credited to the ¿living spirit¿ of one person, Lucas Brandon Turner. Upon his fatal accident on a very dangerous river in Idaho, his surviving family sought some solace in seeking the reason for his ¿needless death,¿ and committed themselves to implement a solution to that problem. Ever more, they believed, it would give not just whitewater boaters, but worldwide communities of non-motorized water sports participants, a better chance to provide their own conscious assistance in their unfortunate participation in an accident in a water recreation environment. The WhiteWater Head Impact Protection (WWHIP) Project was initiated 4 years ago as co-sponsorship between Johns Hopkins University¿s Bloomberg School of Public Health and Whitewater Research & Safety Institute, Inc. The resultant, safer whitewater helmet prototype development was due to the efforts contributed by Dr Andrew Conn and a senior design team from the Johns Hopkins Mechanical Engineering Department, Chang Lee and Michael Corderio.
The products in the WRSI Helmets category have an average rating of 5 of 5 from 1 customer reviews.

POTSDAM The owner of Tons Sports Bar is looking for a new location in light of plans for a hotel that would be built on the site of the restaurant.
The bar has been at 159 Market St. for nearly 17 years, but a proposed Hampton Inn would be built on the property occupied by Tons and Scoopuccinos, 167 Market St.
Were trying to move it. Were not sure where were going to put it yet, said Tons owner Thomas G. Delosh.
Mr. Delosh said the bar will stay on outer Market Street. There are several vacant buildings with plenty of parking that might be potential candidates, but he said it might be a few months before a decision is made.
In the meantime, Tons will continue operating as normal.
We want to find a place thats a good location, Mr. Delosh said. Were not sure yet, but were definitely going to move it.
Mr. Delosh said he doesnt want to move the bar closer to the center of Potsdam. Tons is mostly a hangout for locals, rather than a party scene for college students. Mr. Delosh said he wants to keep it that way.
We definitely dont want to go downtown, he said.
Wherever the bar ends up, Mr. Delosh is taking the move as a chance to retire. My son is going to take it over, he said.
Jeffrey Delosh will begin running the business once a new location is found. The plan is to preserve the sports-bar atmosphere of the taverns first 17 years.

Those signs of construction might have people foolead. Potential riders still have to wait at least a year for the SunRail to be complete.
In Lake Mary, workers are just finishing laying down new rails but SunRail officials say that the rail construction along the the 31-mile line is only 54 percent complete.
Elisha Patterson, a potential rider, is tired of walking, "I need to get places," she said.
Some of the construction is still just empty lots, but business owners like restaurant manager Bucky Westin, are excited to see structures starting to rise.
"SunRail hopefully will triple our business especially with the size of the parking lot they have over there," Westin said.
With his restaurant being less than 100 yards away from the Altamonte Springs stations he waiting on the workers. When the SunRail was first pitched, officials said it would create thousands of jobs. So far 793 have been hired.

Keny Seals draws a foul as he goes up hard late against Desert Hills
The Carbon Dinos kicked off the week with a 64-56 win over Park City on Wednesday Dec. 17. And bounced back with another win on Dec. 19 as the Dinos took on the Thunder from Desert Hills and rolled over them with a 55-36 victory.
Wednesday night, the Dinos got up on the Park City Miners by six in the first quarter. Strong defense never let the Miners take control of the game as Carbon continued to score. The Dinos led by nine at the half.
The second half of play was evenly matched as the Dino intensity never let up. There would be no "bad quarter" for the Dinos in this game. Carbon kept their offense consistent throughout the game and averaged 16 points a quarter to end up with an eight point victory over the Miners.
Joey Keller drove the Dino offense with 19 points. Dayton Martindale stepped up and scored 15. For Coach Bianco, it was the team effort that was key to the win.
At home on Friday night, Carbon scored first against the Thunder and never looked back. Another strong defensive stand forced turnovers and bad shots from the opponents and let Carbon take the early lead. The D of the Dinos in the second quarter held Desert Hills to a mere seven points.
Carbon's confidence was evident as they controlled the tempo of the game. In the fourth quarter the play was much more physical on both sides of the court and the scoring slowed down a bit. But in the end it didn't matter as the Dinos finished off the game with a nine point advantage and some court time for the bench. A jubilant team headed to the locker room to celebrate.
Keller and Tysen Stevens ruled the offense with Keller posting 15 and Stevens hitting for 12.
"Both of these wins have been a great defensive effort from the team. Our defense has stepped up and is playing well," remarked Bianco after the game. "This team is playing great together. I give all the credit to the kids. They faced two good teams and played the way the game should be played. This group of kids is great to work with. I am having more fun coaching this season than I ever have and I've been doing this for nine years now."
The Dinos sail into the Christmas break on a two game winning steak. They will put it to the test on Jan. 2 against Canyonview in a home game at 7 p.m which will be part of a double header that has the Lady Dinos facing Wasatch at 5:15 p.m. in the main gym.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — This week the self-styled global elite and their accompanying media hordes gather in Davos, Switzerland, for several days of schmoozing and pontificating about the state of the world in 2013.
In many ways, things are better than in 2012. Though unemployment remains high in some countries and the global recovery looks fragile, some big political uncertainties (like the U.S. election) are off the table, and the dysfunctional U.S. Congress has stepped back twice from the fiscal brink.
But most important, the euro zone doesn't look like it's going to implode. In fact, the Economist reported, "the invalids in Europe's medical ward are making a remarkable recovery."
I noted with some surprise in my column last week that the southern European debtor countries — the "invalids" of Italy, Spain, and Greece — have been among the best-performing stock markets in the world over the last few months.
Read Gold's take on why the last may be first in global markets in 2013 at MoneyShow.com.
But they're not the only big winners from the Old Continent in global markets; among global currencies, the euro, has quietly mounted an impressive comeback of its own.
Since last July 24, when it traded below $1.21 (near its 2010 low below $1.20), the euro has gained 10%, to $1.33, as of Wednesday. That's a big move in the currency pit.
Mark Zuckerberg, political fundraiser
Republican New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has gained an ally in the blue-leaning Silicon Valley in his bid for a second term: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
And it most likely will continue. In fact, said Axel Merk, president of San Francisco-based Merk Investments, which runs currency mutual funds, the euro may become the "rock star" of global currencies.
OK, I'll give you a minute to scrape your jaw off the floor. But consider this: Merk thinks that the euro is not just the "least bad" of the major currencies. No, the European Central Bank (ECB) is managing the euro well, he said, and the single currency's valuation remains attractive, even after its recent move.
"Everybody hates the ECB, but we think they're the poster children … for how to do it right," Merk told me in an interview.
First came ECB president Mario Draghi's now-famous speech last July in which he pledged to do "whatever it takes to preserve the euro." That caught hedge-fund short-sellers flat-footed and sparked the big rallies in European stocks and euro that have lasted until this day.
Peter Coy of Bloomberg BusinessWeek called it "the speech that saved Europe."
Investing in startups via the Internet
Startup companies are finding new ways to promote themselves to potential angel investors via funding websites, but the risks are high. One site that lets startups post profiles warns, "Expect to lose your money." Photo: Double Robotics.
Actually, as Reuters pointed out, "Draghi was in no position to guarantee 'whatever it takes.'" But after weeks of wrangling, he announced the ECB was prepared to buy "unlimited" amounts of bonds of even the weakest European countries.
That — and a surprisingly successful Greek debt deal in December — helped rates in Spain and Italy plummet. Both countries' sovereign 10-year bonds now yield two-and-a-half percentage points less than they did in July. Hence, their stock markets' rally and the euro's rise.

Gas shut off valves are essential components to any gas line installation. That said, as a technician you can easily go to town replacing these valves when you've got an extra on hand, and as a commercial restaurant owner it's pretty important to know where the shut off valve is and how to use it in case of emergencies. Fortunately, gas shut off valves are simple to use, easy to switch out, and conveniently recognizable. Familiarize yourself with the shut off valves around your establishment, and add a few extras to your tool kit so you've got one when you need it most.
