SEATTLE, April 9, 2012—Allrecipes.com, the world's #1 digital food brand, today announced the most downloaded food app, Allrecipes.com Dinner Spinner for iOS and Android, received a major upgrade with a new Grocery Scanner. The feature, available for both Dinner Spinner and Dinner Spinner Pro, enables home cooks to scan grocery barcodes directly from a smartphone to find recipes, add items to shopping lists or save items in a scan history, creating a "virtual pantry" to keep track of items at home. Pairing the Grocery Scanner feature with the #1 recipe app, offering thousands of recipes rated and reviewed by millions of home cooks, is a match made in kitchen heaven.
According to the comScore MobiLens report, 58 percent of smartphone owners use a phone while in brick and mortar stores to shop, and 1 in 5 use it to scan barcodes. "We are thrilled to launch this update to our Dinner Spinner app; a barcode scanner connecting to our recipe database is a convenient feature we know our time-strapped community will love," said Lisa Sharples, president of Allrecipes.com. "With more than 11 million global downloads of Allrecipes' Dinner Spinner, developing innovative new features that meet our community's needs and complement our apps is a top priority for Allrecipes."
Top 5 Ways to Use the Grocery Scanner
- Quickly scan a grocery item's barcode to search for recipes with related ingredients.
- Manage shopping lists with the touch of a finger. Out of milk? Scan the carton's barcode before it hits the recycle bin to add milk to the list.
- Scan groceries to easily keep track of what's in the kitchen. Home cooks can check their scan history at the grocery store so they don't buy something they already have—creating a virtual pantry on their phone.
- Save money by scanning sale items to find related recipes. For example, if Greek Yogurt is on sale, but a home cook isn't sure what to do with it, a quick scan reveals nearly 100 matching recipes ranging from an easy Tzatziki Sauce to a delicious Garlic Feta Dip!
- Search the fun and easy way! Home cooks can now add a custom panel to the Dinner Spinner's slot-machine-style search feature. Quickly scan or manually add favorite ingredients such as quinoa or sour cream to find recipes with ingredients that match. Undecided? Let the spinner choose!
In addition to the new Grocery Scanner features, Shopping List, previously only available for Allrecipes.com Dinner Spinner Pro, is now available on the free version of the app. With the new and improved Dinner Spinner Apps, Home cooks will have everything they need at their fingertips to keep a well-stocked pantry and a full happy family.
For more information about Allrecipes.com Dinner Spinner's new Grocery Scanner check out the video on YouTube and to download the new apps, visit the Apple App Store, Amazon Appstore or the Android Marketplace Google Play.

This exhibition is no longer on view at the National Gallery. Please follow the links below for related online resources or visit our current exhibitions schedule.
This exhibition chronicles the major technological developments in photographic processes from the origins of the medium until the advent of digital photography. Drawn from the Gallery's permanent collection, the exhibition is organized chronologically and includes some 90 photographs that range from an early photogenic drawing by William Henry Fox Talbot, the inventor of photography, to Polaroid prints by Andy Warhol. Superb examples of the major photographic processes, including salted paper, albumen, gelatin silver, and chromogenic prints, will be on view, along with examples of photomechanical processes such as photogravure and halftone. The selections in the exhibition will highlight the artistic vitality and technological virtuosity of the medium's practitioners and demonstrate the many factors—not only the choice of process, but also scale, tone, cropping, enlarging, and paper selection—that shape the aesthetic quality and meaning of a photograph. A book entitled In the Darkroom: An Illustrated Guide to Photographic Processes will be published in association with this exhibition.
Organization: Organized by the National Gallery of Art.

After having no first-round pick in 2012, the Knicks own one in 2013, but they don't have a second-round pick.

If you don't want to mess up your dining table then you need a table cloth (you can find dining tables in our dining tables and chairs range). Also handy are placemats so that you don't spill anything on the cloth. If only there was something to stop things from spilling on to the placemat...
While someone takes the time to invent that, why not select some new cutlery, crockery or glasses to go on the table? We can help you out on that front.

Emmy Rossum and Adam Duritz Call It Quits After One Year
Celebrity Body Nov. 23, 2010 AT 3:49PM
Emmy Rossum and Adam Duritz have ended their one-year relationship.
"We can confirm that Emmy is now single," Rossum's rep tells UsMagazine.com.
The Phantom of the Opera actress, 24, and Counting Crows frontman, 46, were first spotted in October 2009, shortly after Rossum's ex-husband, music producer Jason Siegel, filed for divorce.
Rossum revealed that the couple split two months ago, according to USA Today.
However, the actress insists, "We're still very close friends."

I also don't see much reason for a 6x12 back, but a 6x17 back (I just bought one for around $500) that fits a 4x5" camera is a different thing, because 6x17 is wider than 5". If you price out the cost of a 617 camera with interchangeable lenses and camera movements, then the DaYi 617 back starts looking like a real bargain, particularly if you've already got a camera with a Graflok type back and a few lenses to cover the format.
For me, the 617 back extends the range of what I can do with my existing 4x5" equipment, so it's a good value. I decided to upgrade my 75mm lens to one with more coverage for 6x17, but that was probably going to happen eventually anyway.
I'm not sure what the attraction of the new KangTai back would be over the less costly DaYi. They look fairly similar, but sometimes these differences aren't always obvious.

With the holidays fast approaching, I hoped "Rise of the Guardians" would get me in the spirit of the season. This animated movie stars Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Jude Law and Hugh Jackman.
The Guardians are an elite group of mythical figures, including Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, who were chosen to protect the world's children as long as the children believe in them. When The Bogeyman, referred to as Pitch, returns to take down the Guardians and bring fear to children everywhere, the Guardians must recruit a reluctant Jack Frost into their organization.
The story isn't anything special, just a generic children's movie. It's slightly dark, tougher spin on childhood myths seemed like an interesting premise, but it just didn't deliver — the ideas don't exactly fit together.
The movie tries to balance superhero-like action with warm feelings of childhood innocence, and it doesn't work well. For example, when you go to see a movie with Santa in it, you don't expect to see him in so many action sequences or bearing giant tattoos on his arms. Characters you remember from childhood are portrayed as tough heroes and rebels fighting a villain that looks a lot like Lord Voldemort. The Tooth Fairy feels too innocent in comparison to her cohorts. Holiday themes of wonder and belief are present, but warm moments take a backseat to everything else and just feel odd in comparison to the scenes that surround them.
All this roughness is oddly balanced with humor that doesn't seem to belong in the movie.
Santa's elves are goofy — the exact opposite of their not-so-jolly boss — and are at the center of many gags. The simple humor does have a certain charm to it, but it feels like a secondhand addition to the film to keep its young audience members' attention. The dialogue isn't as clever: jokes mostly boil down to cheesy one-liners. The movie contains many creative ideas seemingly thrown together, which results in action-packed clutter.
The voicework in the movie ranges from good to annoying. Jack Frost's voice is rather generic and Jude Law's Pitch is an evil enough villain. The Easter Bunny is voiced by the same actor as "X-Men's" Wolverine — Jackman — and sounds and acts a lot like him. Santa has an odd accent and the Tooth Fairy's voice is just annoying. Thankfully, Sandman doesn't talk at all. While they have the skin of childhood memories, none of the characters feel special; they are all rather one-dimensional and dull.
The animation is definitely a high point, as it's something Dreamworks has always done well. If the movie was meant to capture the wonder of childhood, the visuals are the only thing that does the job. Santa's workshop has a classic Christmas appearance; the Easter Bunny's land is green and full of pastel colors; and the Sandman's golden conjurations are amazing. There's an obvious difference between the real world and fantasy, but both look great. While I may not be a fan of the action storyline, the action scenes looked great, especially due to the 3D.
"Rise of the Guardians" isn't anywhere near the perfect holiday film. It's a mix of a lot of ideas that don't fit together exactly right. That isn't to say it's terrible — there are some redeeming qualities in its animation and occasional holiday themes — but as a whole the movie is nothing more than passable.
Score: C

Wauwatosa resident wins Days of Sharing donation for Tosa Cares from Northwestern Mutual
Northwestern Mutual, through its Foundation, is announcing a $1,000 grant for Tosa Cares on behalf of Wauwatosa resident Kim Nelson, a winner in Northwestern Mutual's Days of Sharing campaign. The annual program encourages employees to nominate local nonprofits they care deeply about to receive grant funds in their name.
Nelson works as a business consultant in the information systems department at the Milwaukee-based financial security company.
"This grant will help support Tosa Cares in its mission to serve the community by providing food, clothing and assistance to families in need," said Nelson. "I am passionate about the positive influence Tosa Cares has on those in need. As a volunteer, I have personally felt the gratitude of those receiving help."
More than 770 employees nominated their favorite local nonprofit as part of Days of Sharing this year. The 25 winning grants were chosen at random each day during the week of November 12 and range in size from $1,000 to $10,000.
"Northwestern Mutual employees have a long history of giving back to the community," said John Kordsmeier, president, Northwestern Mutual Foundation. "This is a unique way for us to recognize and honor the passion that employees like Kim have for strengthening the places where we live and work."
More than 1,000 Northwestern Mutual employees donate 21,000 hours each year to community volunteer efforts through group activities, mentoring, charity drives, and service on nonprofit boards.
In the program's five-year history, the Northwestern Mutual Foundation has awarded more than $600,000 in grants on behalf of its employees.

The Dating And Love Niche Package With MRR
As I was looking for a way to get some new info on being a success in love… I had an amazing idea. Other people all over the world want to learn new ways and new things that they can do to become a success in dating and relationships too. Just like me they likely can't find a course that supplies them with fresh topics, the instruction and everything they will need. Like…
- How To Be An Attraction Artist
- The General Do's and Don'ts Of Dating
- The Ins and Outs Of Dating Sites
- How To The Rules Change As You Get Older
- How To Keep Love Once You Find It
All of these overlooked topics are essential for success with dating and relationships. So I saw a huge opportunity for my customers and put together a "MRR Course" that will fill the need that is there.

Havana is a floor lamp, which resembles a cigar.
In 1993 the production of Havanna was like a little revolution for Foscarini. Before the designer Jozeph Forakis had the idea for Havana, the Italian company had always made its lamps from glass. Havana, a big cigar swinging in the air, was also initially meant to be made of glass. However, after the ones responsible at Foscarini had seen the design by Forakis, they agreed with the designers to use plastic (polyethylene) as a suitable material.
Polyethylene turned out to be the right choice for this lamp, which was meant to be fresh and light, open and versatile. Also, Jozeph Forakis had the idea to produce the lamp with separate segments so that its design could be expressed more clearly.
The light of the Havana is pure, simple but not banal. It is meant to light a certain area of the living room optimally.
Design, material and idea soon also appealed at the New York Museum of Modern Art and the Havana became part of the permanent exhibition.
The Havana floor lamp is also available in yellow and ice, as well as with a chromed frame and with a dimmer, as an outdoor, wall or pendant lamp.

Review Details
16x20x1 3M Filtrete Ultra Allergen Filter (1-Pack)
Product Rating:
Product Review (submitted on October 25, 2012):
During the winter, we use a wood burning stove as a main source of heat and a forced-air furnace as a back-up. This filter is great for filtering smoke and soot before it has a chance to blow throughout our home. Filter needs to be changed more often when using with wood burning stove, but filter works great.

iPhone update improves camera, Wi-Fi
updated 01:45 pm EDT, Thu August 23, 2007
iPhone update surprises
Apple's latest iPhone software update appears to repair camera issues and improve wireless performance, according to various owners of the cellular handset. Apple said the update included unspecified bug fixes, but those fixes are making some iPhone owners extremely happy. "My Wi-Fi reception is definitely better," said one forum poster cited by Computerworld. "While in my office, I have never been able to connect to the wifi hub in the conference room down the hall [but after the update] I was surprised that the Edge connection seemed faster, until I realized I was connected to the wifi hub with two bars."
"For me, this is a huge issue, as I was preparing to try to deal with whatever hassle it would take to get the wifi connection extended to my office area," the user wrote.
"Wifi reception and connection is much improved," said another forum poster on the same message board thread. "The phone works better. Some places I had problems with before now work like a charm."
Other users suggest the update could boost Web surfing performance via Safari on the iPhone, and others say cellular phone reception has also improved. Many iPhone users insist that the camera has undergone drastic improvement, no longer blurring the live video preview with the sweep of a hand across the camera lens.
"Before even small hand movements would blur the screen really easily," said a different forum poster. "But now it seems to have much higher refresh rate or some kind of stability enacted."

Tech, LSUS merger heads to the regents
The Louisiana Board of Regents could vote as early as Feb. 28 on whether to recommend a merger between Louisiana Tech University and LSU-Shreveport.
On that date, the board will hear a report on a study that recommends the merger, giving Tech campuses in both Ruston and Shreveport, under the umbrella of the University of Louisiana System.
It's a proposal Louisiana Tech President Dan Reneau warmly embraced at a briefing on the study's results Friday in Ruston, describing the potential merger as a "win-win" situation.
"I think there's a lot here to look at. On the surface, this report looks like a positive outcome for our institution and our region," he said. "It looks like a great opportunity for everyone. I think we have to study it and see what the Shreveport-Bossier community wants and what the Ruston community wants, but I see more positives than negatives."Read more at TheNewsStar.com

A lot of talk has surfaced that the New York Knicks are a poor rebounding team. Charles Barkley discussed this idea numerous times during New York's win over the Lakers on TNT Thursday night, and it is being brought up by other media members, as well.
Bill Walker, The Power Forward
Last night against the Miami Heat, Bill Walker played the majority of his time at the power forward position. Playing Walker at the four is VERY effective against smaller teams because while he may not be the tallest guy going for the rebound, he will be the most energetic.

It's Dubble Bubble!
It's funny, how the simplest, most concise gathering of words occasionally best describes what I, and many others, feel about a certain thing-in this case, a candy. To prove this point, I found a review from Amazon on Dubble Bubble, a delightful candy produced by American's Originial, which states:
"Lots of gum, good price."
See what I mean?
This simple phrase sums up the good ol' Dubble Bubble gum perfectly, although "I love you" works, as well. These trophies of delicious goodness often come in huge packages, and each individual piece is determined to last as long as you'd like. They're a bit less than a half an inch in height, and again, just falling short of the two inch mark in length. Good, solid proportions for bubble gum, and they rightfully give off the impression of both lasting long and tasting good.
The taste isn't exactly unique any longer, what with the plethora of bubble gum flavor candies out there these days, but it certainly holds up to society's usual standards. As gums go, these last fairly long, with the initial blast of flavor enduring for about five minutes, before giving way to a more subtle but similar taste which stick around for a while. The greatest thing about it, though, is the fact that it leaves no foul aftertaste following a good time spent on chewing. This area is where many gums fail, I feel, so it's quite fortunate Dubble Bubble doesn't fail in this department.
Dubble Bubbles are also widely renowned for their exceptional bubble-making abilities. Facial cleaning devices for gum-bubbles-gone-wrong sold separately.

Printing press
The printing press is a machine. It is used to make many copies of identical pages. The printing press today is used to print books and newspapers. It had a great influence on society, especially western society. It was "one of the most potent agents... of western civilisation in bringing together the scattered ideas of thinkers".[1]
Woodcut printing has been done for several centuries. But that was whole pages cut into wood, words and pictures. In the 15th century when Johannes Gutenberg improved the process. He used separate alloy letters screwed into a frame. This way a large set of letters could make almost any page for printing. This process was called typesetting. Each letter was in a block of metal, that was fixed in a frame. He could then move paper and ink over it, much like a stamp. This method was called letterpress. The letters would leave ink on the paper in the shape of the letters, creating text or illustrations.[1] Today printing presses are automated.

'How I Met Your Mother' Season 6, Episode 15 Recap
Did Carter Bays and Craig Thomas kill off Marshall's dad in order to accommodate Jason Segel's movie career?
It certainly feels like it after watching this episode. Under the guise that Marshall has to stay in Minnesota to help out his widowed mom, we see Marshall for the most part interact with the gang via phone. It feels like those scenes and the early flashback scene he was in allowed him to shoot his scenes for the week before anyone else did so he could go play with the Muppets or whatever other movie project he's on right now.
What the finished product ended up being, though, was a cute story told in an awkward fashion. Think what you will about Jennifer Morrison as Zoey, but she's been Ted's most promising girlfriend in a few years, and it was fun to see Ted try to be mature about his feelings for her. It was also good to see Katy Perry's guest shot go from gratuitous to actually being involved in the plot.
I can't imagine that, if they had their full complement of players, that Bays and Thomas would have told the story like this. This episode was rife with flashbacks, multiple versions of stories, and other 'HIMYM' classic time shifts and misdirections. And the ultimate payoff, with Marshall calling up both Zoey and Ted to tell them what's truly going on -- Ted loves Zoey and Zoey is divorcing The Captain -- made for a sweet ending.
But if Segel were around, all of that could have been done a different way with the same effect and all the awkwardness would be gone. Sure, hearing Mrs. Eriksen and Marshall's lunkheaded brother Marcus join in on the conversation would have been gone, as would the fact that Marcus, a grown man with kids, still insists on giving his little brother a "Hertz Donut." But these are professional sitcom writers here, folks; they would have come up with something just as good.
How are you folks liking Zoey as a love match for Ted? They certainly have more of a history than, say, Ted and Stella did. It's not the pinnacle of Ted relationships, like Robin and Victoria were, but his feelings certainly seem more organic and believable than with some of the others. I like that this relationship isn't starting with Ted making grand romantic gestures or talking about soulmates. It started from hatred, settled into friendship, and blossomed among misunderstandings and Ted's decision to do the right thing and not get involved with a woman who he thought was married.
In fact, I would have loved see a few more episodes where Ted was tortured by the fact that he can't act on his feelings because Zoey was married, and not just because we would have seen more of Kyle MacLachlan. It would have been interesting to see Ted struggling with things while taking the high road. But that just wasn't in the cards. Now let's see how long the two of them last.
I give credit to the writers for making Perry's guest shot reasonably meaty, especially in the episode's second half. The naïve Honey -- named that by the gang because she's so trusting that the only thing you can say to her is a resigned, "Oh, honey..." -- could have been played by anyone, but that also means that it's a safe spot for a high-profile, non-actor guest like Perry to make an appearance. And she played too-innocent well, even managing to get Barney to break down over his estranged father just by returning his "Who's your daddy?" come on line with the simple, "Who's your daddy?"
More fun stuff:
-- Barney's tears over his dad were sincere, and it was fun to see him wrapped in a blanket holding a cup of tea, just like Robin says she wants to do with Honey. But he still knows that it could be used as a come-on, as he was able to weave his usual lies -- he has four Nobel Prizes while his dad only has three -- in between sobs.
-- The Best Barneyism of the week was his method of "explaining" what went on between him and Honey. So many people have done the tasteless bedspring noise to indicate vigorous sex, but not to the length Barney did. He then also gave his "explanation" to Zoey, who he barely knows. Second best: "He fell on his sword so she could fall on mine."
-- Ted brought back interventions so the gang could talk him out of his feelings for Zoey. But I'd rather see the interventions for his coffee breath, shoulder hair and grandmother's watch.
-- Lily to Marshall: "We hate Ted now. Get on board or the sexting stops."
-- "Barney accidentally left the phone at my apartment ... in the garbage." Oh, honey ...

Mata kills Tottenham as Chelsea stay Top!
The direct translation of Juan Mata from Spanish to English is John Kills, leading to his nickname with his Chelsea team mates, Johnny Kills. He certainly put Tottenham to the sword with a fantastic two goal display at White Hart Lane yesterday. Another tough fixture negotiated by Chelsea who are still unbeaten and have only dropped two points.
Roberto Di Matteo is very pleased with his new look Chelsea who retained their four point gap at the top of the Premier league table. We also have the best goal difference, having scored 19 and let in just six goals. Even if Manchester United win at Stamford Bridge next weekend, Chelsea will stay top, but the way we are playing it is Alex Ferguson who has more to worry about.
Torres did not score but he provided the focal point of the attack, with Mata, Oscar and Hazard behind him. All of the players are getting more and more used to each other and have the potency to score against anyone. United are struggling in defence but have managed to outscore their opponents so far, but they will face a much tougher test against the Blues.
Mata was the outstanding performer yesterday and took his two goals with great skill and a cool head. If United decide to try to mark him out of the game, it will just leave more space for Hazard or Oscar to feed Torres. There are goals all over the Chelsea team, as Cahill and Sturridge showed, and we should be too much for United next week, as long as we do not let Rooney and van Persie have too much of the ball.

FOXBOROUGH ŌĆō Chad Ochocinco is changing his ways. And heŌĆÖs not making any apologies for it.
To those Twitter followers who claim that the Patriots wide receiver has toned down his activity, Ochocinco has a clear response.
ŌĆ£You have to do it the Patriot Way, the way things are always done here,ŌĆØ Ochocinco said after TuesdayŌĆÖs practice at Gillette Stadium. ŌĆ£One thing about this city, man, and their sports, all they do is win. So that stuff that I did in the past, thereŌĆÖs no need for it.ŌĆØ

The pair of wins enabled Pawtucket to sit in first place by 1 ┬Į games over Lehigh Valley as the second-place IronPigs battled Norfolk Tuesday.
BRISTOL, Ct. ŌĆö Suddenly, the offense is a concern for Cumberland American manager Dave Belisle.
ŌĆ£Very concerned,ŌĆØ Belisle stressed after CALL managed just two hits in a 3-0 loss to defending New England champion Fairfield (Ct.) American Tuesday afternoon at Breen Field. The defeat leaves Cumberland American at 1-2 in pool play and in must-win territory heading into Wednesday morningŌĆÖs contest against VermontŌĆÖs Barre Community.
PAWTUCKET ŌĆö Taking her eyes off the road for a minute proved costly to a city woman whose 2011 Suzuki struck a utility pole and a fire hydrant near 8 Randall Street on Monday just after 4 p.m., police said.

PAWTUCKET ŌĆö Sometimes it pays to take a complaint to the top. Twelve-year-old Sara Arno was becoming dismayed by what she was finding at the Elizabeth Baldwin Elementary School playground when she would bring her younger brother and sister.

We all need feedback. Sure, the more you write, the more you understand what not to do- but the best approach to take with writing can sometimes be an elusive thing. In helping me with my Of Montreal review a couple years back, our dear Rudy pointed out that I used the word "frothy" in a hilariously incorrect way. Even MichaelJordan probably ran his anti-Circle-Takes-The Square reviews by his roommates before shit-posting them onto this site.
"Where are the jabs at the unnecessarily obtuse lyrics, MJ? Elaborate on those, man."
Nevertheless, it's safe to say that this is a good time of the year for constructive criticism. Hot on the heels of promotions, some of you ended up with an official title on the site (and an avatar that's too big, just because why not,) and as a result, want to make sure your writing's up to snuff. On the other hand, some of you may be wondering why you didn't land the position for which you aimed- maybe you're confident with your writing, but don't know what's missing. Or perhaps you simply post here because you like talking about your favorite records, and have been looking for more solidified feedback for quite some time.
The point of this blog post is to provide a place on the Sputnik review site where you can post a review in a comment below- and receive feedback fairly soon. Reminder: the forums side of this site has a Proofreading…

Nitro 4x4 hits UK in 2007
- Nitro concept car will be toned down
- Production model to appear at Detroit show
- Designed for on-road use
Dodge has confirmed that the Nitro off-roader will go on sale in the UK in 2007.
The Nitro concept car was on display at last month's Frankfurt Motor Show, but Dodge was unwilling to acknowledge that a production version was in the pipeline. However, the five-seater Nitro will join the Caliber small family car as Dodge's first mainstream vehicles to be sold in the UK.
The concept car may need to be toned down before it reaches showrooms, although Dodge is keen to keep its distinctive character. The first production-ready versions could be previewed at the Detroit Motor Show in January.
No decision has been made on the exact specifications of the Nitro but, as it uses the same chassis as the new Jeep Cherokee, it's possible that there could be two and four-wheel-drive versions available.
The Nitro will be longer and wider than the Cherokee and intended for on-road driving, not off. Dodge says there will be a diesel engine, but won't confirm if it's the same VW-sourced 2.0-litre TDI engine used in the Caliber.
No prices are being given, but Dodge plans to undercut competitors, which could mean a starting price as low as £16,000.

BOONE COUNTY - Boone County Circuit Court Judge James R. Schrand is expected to rule Friday on the details of a recount election in the county's Republican judge-executive primary.
More news from your community
Share your news and photos
Boone County Commissioner Cathy Flaig requested the recount after a recanvass confirmed the election night totals, which indicate she was defeated by incumbent Judge-executive Gary Moore by just 74 votes.
While Schrand could rule a recount is not in order, he indicated at Thursday's hearing that his ruling would set the amount of the surety bond and the recount parameters.
The candidate who requests a recount, in this case Flaig, must pay for it and the surety bond helps guarantee that payment.
Attorney Duane R. Skavdahl, who represents Flaig, questioned the estimated cost of a recount, which was based in part on figures provided by Harp Enterprises, the voting machine supplier.
Bobby Gantley, general manager of elections for Harp Enterprises, testified that it would cost $1,200 per day for each technician needed to conduct a recount. He estimated it would probably take three or four technicians anywhere from two to four days, depending on the type of recount conducted.
"Nobody likes to pay money for something they don't have to," Skavdahl said. "The charges from Harp are highly inflated."
There were two types of voting machine at each of 63 precincts in Boone County - the eScan machine, which was used by most voters, and the eSlate machine. The eSlate machine, often described as a handicap machine, can also be used if there is a malfunction or a temporary shortage of eScan ballots.
The eScan machine has a paper ballot that can be retrieved if a manual recount is ordered. The eSlate machine, Gantley said, does not have a paper ballot. The vendor uses a software application to extract a paper image of a ballot from this type of machine.
If Schrand determines a manual recount is in order, at least four people would be needed for that process, according to Boone County Clerk Rena´ Ping.
Two people would examine each ballot, one person would then record that vote and another would verify the accuracy of that tally. A third person could be added to the ballot examination process to resolve any disputes over ballot markings.
If the recount tally does not match the original vote totals for a precinct, the ballots would then need to be counted again.
Ping estimates it would cost $500 per person, per day to conduct the recount if it was performed by employees of the county clerk's office.
Skavdahl also took issue with that figure.
"I'm not sure somebody needs $500 a day," he said.
Schrand must also decide who would conduct the recount.
"I don't know if it would be proper for my employees to be a part of it," Ping said.
While Moore and Flaig are the principals in the recount, the dispute is between Flaig and the Boone County Board of Elections, which Ping oversees as county clerk.
Jay Dickerson, an attorney representing Moore, estimates a recount will cost $20,700 if the votes are not counted manually. If a full manual recount is ordered, that figure would jump dramatically.
Dickerson, who represented State Sen. Jack Westwood (R -Erlanger) in a partial recount of votes in the 2008 state Senate race, said it took seven hours to manually recount 800 votes in that race.
Based on that formula, it would take 15 days to manually count the more than 12,000 voters in the race in question. Using Ping's estimate of $500 per day for four people, that would add another $30,000 to the cost of a recount.
Moore has said a recount is not necessary but seemed resigned to the fact that one was inevitable.
"I really trust what was determined on Election Day and in the recanvass," Moore said. "Whatever the judge decides, we'll stand behind and we're confident that the outcome will be the same."
Flaig was not available for comment.
The recount, if allowed, would be the first ever in Boone County and the sixth, or possibly the seventh in the history of the commonwealth.
While the state has not had a recount since one was conducted in Jefferson County in 1994, Kevin Sell has also filed a petition for a recount in the Republican primary for Campbell County judge-executive. Sell is awaiting a ruling from Campbell Circuit Judge Julie Reinhardt Ward on that request.

The son of a gold shop owner has been arrested for arranging to have fake 1,000-baht banknotes printed and using them to pay for smartphones that he ordered online.
Bang Sue police acting on a tip-off arrested Pakkawat Siriratlekha, aged 27, and his 19-year-old girlfriend in a condominium unit. Officers found seven hundred 1,000-baht fake banknotes, three smartphones and two tablets in their possession. The fake bills bear the serial number 6B6241930.
Mr Pakkawat, the son of a gold shop owner in Don Muang, admitted to police that he had used the fake bills to pay for smartphones and other products bought online at least five occasions.
The suspect said he hired a printing service in Sukhumvit Soi 50 to produce the fake bills worth 1 million baht. Each bill cost 18 baht to produce.
Police said the suspect claimed that initially he was simply planning to use the counterfeit banknotes as wallpaper in his room.
"I didn't think about the consequences of my action and I saw it as a challenge," they quoted Mr Pakkawat as saying.
Police have charged him with using fake banknotes and fraud.

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - Someone hacked up at least five Saguaro cacti in an east side neighborhood Wednesday night, slashing them to pieces.
"This type of thing just really makes you sick when you see it," said resident Steve Hanson.
Hanson lives in the Civano Neighborhood near Irvington and Houghton. His fellow neighbors are also shocked.
"I stopped dead in my tracks in the car and thought who would do this?" said Adrianne Delgardo Keller, who called police to report the vandalism.
She also said the neighborhood is offering a $100 reward for any information, because she says, this shouldn't happen.
"We're pretty upset," she said. "I mean that's a protected plant and for somebody to do that, we just couldn't understand."
Protected is right. State law says that destroying a protected native plant like a Saguaro could land you in jail for up to 3.75 years, depending on how much the Saguaro is worth.
Hanson says he and his wife walk by the Saguaros every day, and consider them "old friends."
"To see something like this so carelessly done to them, you know it hurts," he said.
Steve says he and his neighbors worry more about the weapon used to slash the Saguaros.
"It's a little frightening cause you don't know what these people are capable of," said Hanson. "They do something as senseless as this, what else might they do?"

CORRIGAN — Corrigan City Council met to appoint a new city manager and discuss curfew enforcement for the city. Interim City Manager Grimes Fortune has served his last day and was not at the meeting. Council appointed Darren Hudman new city manager. Hudman was born in Cleveland and most recently worked in Liberty County for Child Protective Services and was a teacher before that. The public forum brought Perry Eilam to the podium regarding the proposed Corrigan City Park project. Eilam has worked on the park project for free since February and was concerned with the departure of Fortune. Eilam said there has been no direction given by council as to their interest in giving the project approval and guidance to proceed with grant applications. After the executive session, a motion was made by council to validate the city's approval of the Corrigan City Park Project and the 501c3 can begin fundraising to develop a committee with council, to continue planning and submitting grant proposals. During Police Department reports, Chief Darrell Gibson said curfew laws in the city ordinances will be enforced and there are penalties for violating these that could have effects on a young person's future. During May, the department made 23 arrests, wrote 473 citations and made 278 calls for service. Gibson also stated that some people have carped about drug interdiction efforts on the roads, but explained they are effective in getting drugs out of the community. The city approved City Atorney Luann Tatum drafting a letter to Polk County District Attorney Lee Hon to request the release of more than $12,000 recently confi scated in a drug case. The money will be used to equip patrol cars with new radar units. The Corrigan Volunteer Fire Department reported one structure fi re and that it had to be recalled when it rekindled. They also covered two car accidents, two power transformers that fl ared up, a car fi re and an accident with a fatality and one medical assist. They thanked the public for their support of the fi nd raiser, where the department made $1,200. The resolution approved in January regarding the Polk Central Appraisal District building project was revisited and approved due to wording and procedures.t

Beginning in March 2012, Charter 3D movies On Demand will be available to all On Demand enabled customers.
Read on to learn more about 3D TV or choose a topic from table and follow the link.
Charter 3D On Demand is available to OnDemand enabled customers with a Motorola, Cisco, Charter TiVo or Moxi 3012 HDMI capable HD receivers connected with an HDMI cable.
To watch 3D On Demand, you need the following:
Moxi receivers do not support 3D content, except the Moxi HD DVR 3012 model available only in Charter served areas in Missouri and Illinois. Customers in Missouri and Illinois must have a Moxi HD DVR 3012 receiver model connected via an HDMI cable to view 3D programming. See image of 3D compatible Moxi HD DVR 3012 receiver below.
The addition of a 3rd dimension, depth, on your TV is accomplished through a technique called stereoscopy. This simply means presenting slightly different images to the left and right eye so that when the brain combines the images it creates the illusion of depth—the third dimension.
The technique of stereoscopy has been around since the 1800s and was popularized by the 3D movies available during the 1950s. However, it was not until recently that technology has allowed for a truly high-quality 3D viewing experience. The current 3D experience is created by using at least two cameras to capture near-identical images--intended for your left eye or right eye. The projection of these images on a 3D movie screen or via your 3D TV in conjunction with special glasses synchronizes what your left eye and right eye see causing your brain to combine the images and create a perception of depth.
3D glasses control how your eyes see the near-identical images projected on the theater screen or TV. There are a few different types of glasses.
Anaglyph Glasses
These are the oldest type of 3D glasses which were used to view 3D movies starting back in the 1950's. To create the illusion of depth, two identical but slightly offset images are projected on to the movie screen with slightly different colors tints (usually red and cyan). Anaglyph glasses use colored lens to target one image to the left eye and another image to the right eye. This process degrades the color of the 3D images being projected. When viewed without the glasses, the images are distorted and the color is tinted.
These glasses are used primarily in movie theaters, but are becoming increasingly more prevalent with some home 3D TV manufacturers. Two polarized images are projected on to a special movie screen called a silver screen and the lenses in the glasses filter the left image to the left eye and the right image to the right eye. Unlike the anaglyph method, the polarized projection method does not degrade the color of the image. However, images may be somewhat distorted when viewed without glasses
Active Shutter
These are the glasses most predominantly used for home 3D TV viewing. Active shutter glasses require batteries, which may be rechargeable based on the manufacturer. The glasses must be powered on in order for them to receive signals from the 3D TV wirelessly. Two nearly identical images are displayed on the screen and the TV signals the glasses telling them to open and close (shutter) the left and right lens in synchronization. The rapid shuttering of each eye between different light filters creates the 3D perception. Viewing a 3D TV in 3D mode without glasses will make the image seem distorted and unwatchable. Active shutter glasses are not universal across TV models meaning that you may not be able to use your glasses to watch other models of 3D TVs. In addition, active shutter glasses cannot be used to watch 3D movies at the movie theater.
3D Movies On Demand
You can choose from a number of 3D enabled movies, now available via Charter service. Experience the 3D experience without leaving your couch.
Rent instead of buy
Renting a 3D movie On Demand offers the entire family a 3D viewing experience for as little as $6.99. You will save money over taking the whole family to the movie theater or purchasing a DVD.
Charter currently offers 3D movie rentals and HBO 3D Premium content, both of which are available via the On Demand platform. Additional 3D content, such as live sporting events may become available in the future. To view a list of 3D movies available to rent On Demand:
There is no additional service tier required to access the 3D Movies folder in our On Demand platform. The price to rent 3D movies is $6.99.
HBO 3D content is included in the monthly subscription rate for HBO service.
A small percentage of the population has reported some discomfort while viewing 3D images, including:
These symptoms may be more likely to be experienced by children, teenagers, pregnant woman, the elderly and people with medical conditions, including epilepsy. Additionally, some people experience what is known as stereo blindness where they are otherwise healthy but unable to see the 3D effect.
All 3D TVs display both traditional 2D HD programming in addition to 3D programming. No glasses are required to view 2D programming on a 3D TV. However, before watching Charter's 3D content on a 3D TV, the TV must be set to 3D mode. This can be done using the remote that came with the 3D TV.
In order for a 3D stream to fit within the same space as a 2D stream, the content must be compressed and encoded. The placement of 2 3D frames on to one HD frame can be done in a side-by-side or top-to-bottom orientation. In addition to setting the 3D TV to 3D mode, you must choose the proper orientation. Before you change your TV to 3D mode and put on your glasses, begin watching the 3D content in 2D mode and check to see if the programming you intend to watch is side-by-side or top-to-bottom oriented.
If the programming's orientation is side-by-side, you will see two identical images one next to the other.
If the programming's orientation is top-to-bottom, you will see two identical images one over the other.
This orientation is the only format recognized by some Samsung and Mitsubishi 3D capable TVs manufactured prior to 2010. Charter 3D On Demand is not compatible with these TVs due to the fact that our content providers do not offer checkerboard oriented content. Customers with these TVs will see Charter 3D On Demand content displayed as two images either side-by-side or one over the other in both 2D and 3D mode. To view Charter 3D On Demand content in 3D, these customers may be able to independently purchase equipment from a 3rd party to convert the signal from side-by-side or top-to-bottom to checkerboard format.
Step by Step Viewing Instructions
Click here to see the Charter 3D On Demand Self Help Video.
Note: It is recommended that you watch the 3D On Demand Self Help Video prior to watching a 3D movie. The Self Help Video is accessible by navigating to On Demand>Movies>3D Movies and selecting the title "!Watch This First!" or by navigating to On Demand>Help & Services>Self Help>TV and selecting the title "3D On Demand." (The 3D Self Help Video is only available in 2D.)
Not all HD TV sets can display 3D content. Check your television's user guide to determine if your set is 3D ready. You must also have a Charter Motorola, Cisco, Charter TiVo HDMI capable HD receiver or a Moxi HD DVR 3012 receiver connected to your 3D TV with an HDMI cable and the appropriate 3D glasses to enjoy 3D content.
If you have a 3D TV and try to watch a move in 3D but there are two identical pictures on the screen either side-by-side or top-to-bottom:
You likely do not have your TV in 3D mode. You need to use your TV's 3D remote to select 3D mode and select the proper orientation display. Please refer to your TV's owner's manual for additional information on setting your TV to 3D mode and selecting the appropriate orientation.
To determine whether you need to select side-by-side or top-to-bottom orientation on your 3D TV start the content in 2D mode and watch without your 3D glasses. You will either see two identical frames side-by-side or top-to-bottom.
Content appears blurry and unwatchable.
You may have set the orientation incorrectly when you switched your TV to 3D mode. If you selected side-by-side orientation, try switching the orientation to top-to-bottom using the remote that came with your 3D TV (not your Charter remote) or if you selected top-to-bottom, try switching the orientation to side-by-side using the remote that came with your 3D TV (not your Charter remote).

Marine researchers in New Zealand have identified the direct impact of fishing as the largest known human factor in the decline of the endangered native sea lion population. The team's findings, published in Mammal Review, discount non-human factors, such as disease and identifies resource competition and by-catch incidents as the most likely causes.
The New Zealand sea lion Phocarctos hookeri is the country's only native pinniped species and is listed as 'nationally critical'. The species breeds in the sub-Antarctic, south of New Zealand's mainland, with 71% of the population on the Auckland Islands and the remaining 29% on Campbell Island.
Breeding at the Auckland Islands has declined by 40% since 1998 with only 1501 pups being born in 2009. This decline is directly linked to females not returning to breeding areas. However, while the Auckland Island population has declined, the Campbell Island population appears to be slowly increasing.
Potential reasons for the decline in the Auckland Island population, but not in the Campbell Island colony, include non-human factors such as disease, predation, migration or environmental change. However, possible human factors include population 'overshoot', the effects of contaminants, resource competition and by-catch deaths.
Of the nine potential reasons for the decline of the sea lion population the team discounted six by comparing the Auckland island population with the colony on Campbell Island.
"The most plausible hypotheses based on available evidence is that the decline of breeding females in the Auckland Island population is caused by fisheries-induced resource competition and by-catch incidents" said author Dr Bruce Robertson, from the University of Otago. "Resource competition can lead to nutrient stress and decreased reproductive ability in sea lions and this should be a priority area for future research."
