TiVos have been hacked on and modified by dedicated hardware enthusiasts ever since they first showed up on the scene in the late 90s. Video streams can be pulled off of them and re-inserted by hand, but previously that was a rather painful process -- and playing non-TiVo video was even more painful. In today's How-To, we'll show you how to serve up your archived video to your TiVo with a click of your remote.
Today we'll be using a piece of software called TivoServer to set up a... TiVo server. Because the TiVo is designed to only play back TiVo recorded video, it can't play back video that's been encoded in other formats. The nice thing about TivoServer is that it pretends to be another networked TiVo, and it actually re-encodes video on demand to the format that TiVo is expecting.
We're sure you understood that, but here's the short version: TivoServer will serve up your collection of DivX / AVI / whatever codec videos for playback on your MRV-enabled (unencrypted) TiVo.
Stock TiVos include some video encryption, but it's easily disabled when the box is hacked. We modded ours by hand, but we hear that the TiVo Zipper hack can also take care of this for you.
For today's How-To, we'll serve using our Ubuntu Linux box. It's on the same LAN as our TiVo, but otherwise there's nothing special about the installation. The machine doesn't have to be the latest and greatest -- we've successfully run TivoServer from a 700Mhz Pentium III.
Our DirecTV TiVo has been networked and modded to allow the MRV (Multi Room Viewing) feature to work. With it, the DTiVo can transfer and receive shows to and from other TiVos with MRV enabled. (OK, this pic is of our HD tivo, but you get the idea)
Download TivoServer for Linux from the download section on SourceForge. You'll want to grab tivoserver-0.4.3-linux.gz and save it to your home directory. It's a standalone binary, so you don't need to install any pre-requisites that Ubuntu doesn't include. (And yes, there are OS X and Cygwin versions.)
Create a video directory in your home directory (i.e. /home/willo/video). Alternatively, you can create a symbolic link to the top directory of wherever you like to keep your video files. TivoServer doesn't allow us to change the location that it searches for videos.
Copy some video files into your video directory. TivoServer won't start unless there's something in there. (If you add files later you'll need to restart TivoServer.)
Open up a shell and cd to wherever you saved tivoserver-0.4.3-linux.gz. To set it up, unzip the file, make it executable, and run it:
gunzip tivoserver-0.4.3-linux.gz
chmod 755 tivoserver-0.4.3-linux
TivoServer should be running if you put your video files in the right place. Now go visit your TiVo.
At the bottom of the Now Playing List, you should find TivoServer. Select it.
Under the TivoServer, you'll find your list of shared videos. Select one to test it out.
Select one of your videos and hit Watch on this TV.
The TiVo will request the file and TivoServer will transcode and send the stream to the TiVo.
Once TiVo has enough in the buffer, it'll give you this splash screen. Go ahead and start playing the show.
Sweet, geeky success.
TivoServer is a nice piece of software, but it has a few problems. There's no config file, so you have to point ~/video at your video location. If it chokes on a file it doesn't like (like some DVDs we encoded with XviD), it will crash. Support for TivoServer can be found at the dealdatabase forums.
Still, even with its quirks, TivoServer means that you can archive your videos using DivX (or whatever makes you happy) to conserve storage space and play them back on any networked TiVo in the house. Good luck, and may the forc-- nevermind.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 17
what we eat!
Posted By: Katrina /A /non secretor
In Response To: A non secretors what do you eat? (claudia)
well, the best protein source seems to be HB fish.
A good source of fiber/alpha linolenic acid is flaxseeds, which can be eaten quite nicely ground up with a sliced banana and with pineapple juice poured over it. Add a few walnuts (also HB).
This can then be eaten with rice noodles or rice or vegetables...
Make a very thin pancake out of an egg or two and cut it into strips.
Pour boiling water over the rice noodles.
Chop up some peanuts.
Put hot water in a pan and dip the rice paper (round) into the hot water.
Spread it out. Put on some peanuts, some noodles, some coriandre, some meat, some mint some eggs and whatever else you feel like putting in there,
I usually add some HAI SIEN (or HOY SIN) sauce, because the ingredients are all in chinese, so I can't tell if it has any avoids or not *lol*
These are a lot of fun - but takes a bit of time and preparation.
That is all I can contribute for the moment.
There are dozens of shakes and things that can be made with HB fruit and rice/almond/soy milk and all kinds of other goodies, but I'm not very good at it yet.
love to ya!

The clock is counting down to Sunday's VMAs, and for Video of the Year nominees B.o.B and Hayley Williams it means finally meeting for the first time.
The two collaborated on the rapper's top-five hit "Airplanes" but have never met — they recorded the song and shot their parts for the video separately. They're set to meet Saturday afternoon (September 11) in Los Angeles when they rehearse for their performance at the 2010 Video Music Awards.
"I think just the fact that me and her are performing on the stage at the same [event] is gonna be spectacular," B.o.B told MTV News on Friday about anticipation for his appearance with the Paramore singer.
B.o.B is also set to perform with Bruno Mars, bringing their #1 collaboration "Nothin' on You" to the Nokia Theatre. And the combination performance, comprised of the two smash collabos, is among the most-anticipated. The Atlanta lyricist is excited about his prime-time performance and said he was thinking about a new wrinkle for his set.
"I'm gonna attempt to levitate," he joked. "I don't know if the dynamics of the room will allow me to do that, 'cause it requires me to really pull from the sky."
B.o.B is one of the most-nominated artists at the VMAs, scoring nods for Best Male Video and Best Hip-Hop Video, among others. He actually found out about the recognition via Twitter. "I was just on Twitter checking to see what's up, and then I saw I got nominated, and I was like, 'All right, don't mind if I do,' " he shared with us last month.
The potential big haul left the melodic MC feeling special.
"It's very special to me," B.o.B said. "I think it's a lot more special than the success of the singles, because this reflects the work I've put in over the years and the word of mouth I've helped create. It's definitely amazing. I'm trying to find the words to explain it, but I can't. It's inexplicable. I'm a real simple man, so, you know, I accept every gift with generosity and gratitude."
The 27th annual MTV Video Music Awards will be broadcast live from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday. The party starts with MTV News' VMA Pre-Show at 8 p.m., followed by the main event at 9 p.m. ET.

Childeish Questions
Sherratt, Andrew, Antiquity
The criteria used in the British universities' current assessment of research quality prompt the question: how would Gordon Childe have fared, if assessed that way?
Two recent books about Gordon Childe (Harris 1995; Gathercole et al. 1995), and Peter Gathercole's recent lecture (1994), have provided some sombre and thought-provoking reading. Not so much about Childe the man (though what mythologist could have invented a more evocative symmetry than his Australian entry to the British stage, his life as the Prince of European Prehistory whilst remaining essentially an Outsider there, and his return to Australia and dramatic resorption into the landscape that bred him?); not so much about the personality. as about the political circumstances that on several occasions surrounded his work. Certainly Britain and its Empire were at war when he arrived in Oxford in 1914, and still sensitive long after he returned to Australia in 1917: but it is still a shock to read the military censor's gloating reports on his mail, and of the machinations of reactionary university politicians to get rid of a socialist and pacifist, and to have him dismissed even from a school-teaching post (Mulvaney in Harris 1994). The unease revives, after the security of a chair at Edinburgh and recognition in London, with the reminder that Childe was declared persona non grata in the United States in 1945 (Peace in Gathercole et al. 1995), and that McCarthyite distrust of all 'big ideas' led to a general suspicion in that country of historians and anthropologists who raised their eyes from technicalities to generalizations. It is fashionable now to parody ideas of social evolution as an ideology of conservatism; it is salutary to be reminded that once they were subversive and dangerous, and that what are now familiar names in undergraduate textbooks came during that era under political suspicion. It has the same capacity to cause incredulous disquiet as the kindly letter (reproduced in Bernal 1987: 388) from a group of faculty members in a US university in 1919, telling a colleague that he had no hope of a tenured position in a classics department because he was Jewish, and that it would be best to stop trying to find one.
It hits one unexpectedly because universities aren't supposed to be like that. Of course there have been departments where mediocrity rules and talent is seen as a threat, or whole disciplines that seem at times in the not-so-distant past to have been seized by a collective delusion (say) that one city in the 5th century BC was the touchstone of civilization, and its pots were worth their weight in gold; but that is not the same thing as outright proscription of a challenging point of view by nameless censors within the system. (Certain funding bodies seem to get quite close to this model, however.) Perhaps, for a short time, British universities did come near to espousing a system - public funding, with academic autonomy - best calculated to achieve the ideal. Not any more. Abolition of the difference between polytechnics and universities has eroded the concept that universities are not just about teaching but about the critical scrutiny of received knowledge. Now they are assumed simply to be concerned with imparting an agreed set of facts. A few of them may be privileged to conduct 'research' - specifically designed on the engineering/applied scientific model, with a measurable output and preferably with industrial application' goal-rational, value-free, commoditized learning. …

The Sir Alec Rose, in Port Solent, was the venue for the start of a three-day sailing regatta.
The MJ Quinn UK Firefighters Sailing Challenge (UKFSC) sees participants from all of the emergency services, across the UK, compete in the annual competition.
The 2013 event got off to a great start with a get-together at The Sir Alec Rose, where entrants were welcomed by the UKFSC committee.
Mick Stead and his crew of Hampshire 1 came out on top, beating 18 other yachts to win the trophy. Nick Harding, on the London 2 yacht, won the pursuit race.
The MJ Quinn UKFSC 2013 donated £6,000 to its chosen charities: The Fire Fighters Charity, RNLI, Save the Children and Mission for Sam.
Tony Duncan, pub manager at The Sir Alec Rose, said: "We were delighted to host the welcoming event for this year's regatta. It is a fantastic competition and a great fundraiser for some worthwhile causes."

The 90-meter-high piece of graffiti scrawled on the back of this office building in Rotterdam, Netherlands, was the product not of hundreds of aerosol cans but of Laser Tag, an open-source painting program from New York Citybased Graffiti Research Lab. As an ordinary green laser pointer's beam was drawn across the building, a sensitive low-noise camera (developed for astronomers) captured its movements and relayed them to a laptop running the software. Then a movie projector "painted" the squiggles onto the multistory canvas in real time.

And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

A bigger GSP is more likely to beat the Spider…Many don't know that Silva walks at 220 – 240 pounds when he's not in the ring….He's just too huge for the Canadian lad…
http://lowkickmma.com/author/thewho thewho
Anderson Silva – KO/TKO first or second round
http://lowkickmma.com/author/Krogan Krogan
Yes the question is are we talking if they fought today or after GSP bulks up for welterweight? Because yes I don't see Anderson beating a GSP his own size, he won't be able to stop the take downs.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/RoryKernaghan Rory Kernaghan
o yeh coz silva isnt a bjj black belt????
http://lowkickmma.com/author/likesfights likesfights
2 of my favorite fighters…if gsp bulked up it would be colser but i think anderson silva would win…but you never know
http://lowkickmma.com/author/thewho thewho
the fights are there in the right below the public wall
http://lowkickmma.com/author/Lowkickdodger Lowkickdodger
well i think its stupid to make a point on a fighter's level by mentionning old losses. Gsp has improved a lot and has learn from, that is y he is so good today mentally and physically. you cud say the same thing abt Silva who humiliating losses in his record. We all know who the untouchable guy is FEDORR and maybe Machida if he beats Rua convincingly.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/uRL uRL
hmm.. GSP got TKO'd by Sera I mean come on…
compared to griffin which Silva barely tag.. but it would be interesting tho.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/MAMBA24ILL MAMBA24ILL
Those who voted for GSP either don't like Silva or are showing there MMA knowledge. I think Silva's the reason GSP hasn't moved up yet, he's not ready.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DR3W DR3W
ya penn has a black belt too and is much more dangerous on the ground then silva
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DR3W DR3W
ya tour right he quit like a bitch cause he was getting his ass kicked and didnt want to take anymore punishment
http://lowkickmma.com/author/HotMixed HotMixed
Anderson Silva got my vote for sure.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/nux2k nux2k
The Spider as beat people with good wrestling b4 ever heard of Hendo??? lol. + GSP is the smaller man so he is not going to have the size advantage he as a WW. Anderson has the reach the foot work the size the Xp at MW and the striking, so its not lookin good for old GSP.
The only way I see GSP winning is to have a very good game plan to keep it on the ground and lay on him to a decision like a wet blanky lol and not get KOed in the process. Remember GSP dont have the best chin in the world (not that it is bad) but he dont have a Scott Smith style chin is all im sayin. if Hendo cant keep Anderson down I dont think GSP well
http://lowkickmma.com/author/UndefeatedOfWest UndefeatedOfWest
I'll have to agree with nux2k on this one
http://lowkickmma.com/author/frost frost
a fight of this caliber would never end in a decision….either man has the potential of winning……1st round….tko or submission…peace….stop taking sides and stop talking shit…..
http://lowkickmma.com/author/JUDAS JUDAS
gsp will take silva down easaly whenever he wants, and has the ability to hold silva down and ground and pound him out. gsp tko or decision victory!
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DanielCassidy Daniel Cassidy
yer a while man altogether judas, chattin dung as usual then voting for ur own comments, weak dude, weak
silva would kill gsp standing, he could tap him, and his bjj will be better than gsps wrestling
http://lowkickmma.com/author/elgwapo elgwapo
Uhm no. BJ Penn IS. BJ ALSO HAS THE BEST TAKEDOWN DEFENSE IN ALL OF MMA, no matter how small he is….
http://lowkickmma.com/author/Lowkickdodger Lowkickdodger
by untouchable i meant clean record and no losses in dominating fashion like gsp or silva.
http://lowkickmma.com/author/MAMBA24ILL MAMBA24ILL
The Lutter mount, the round Hendo won, funny stuff. Who won those fights?
http://lowkickmma.com/author/nux2k nux2k
Thanx Young gohan I try my bes
http://lowkickmma.com/author/ashley ashley
no competition silva would win so easily
http://lowkickmma.com/author/JUDAS JUDAS
your a silva fanboy dan!! silva is not unbeatable and he has poor takedown defence, silva is a perfect match for gsp, dont underrate gsp skills
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DanielCassidy Daniel Cassidy
lies judas! when was silva last ko'd? NEVER! gsp? 2007, against matt sera, a good fighter, but inferior compared to gsp. even if it goes to the ground silva's bjj will be better than wrestling.
people ignore judas, the man is so ignorant, he refuses even to acknowledge the last emperor's greatness and achievements
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DR3W DR3W
actually gsp would pack on more muscle and his wrestling is only getting better and he probally has the best strategy and gameplans in all of mma and silvs only has half of an inch reach advatage dont doubt him
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DR3W DR3W
ya randy couture had trouble taking him down
http://lowkickmma.com/author/DELETEME DELETE ME
Damn…. that is really a tough one to predict… i won't cast my vote on this one because it really is not fair to favor one over the other… they are both great!
But my prediction is that such a fight would really go the distance…

The size of the singular set in mean curvature flow of mean-convex sets
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We prove that when a compact mean-convex subset of (or of an -dimensional riemannian manifold) moves by mean-curvature, the spacetime singular set has parabolic hausdorff dimension at most . Examples show that this is optimal. We also show that, as , the surface converges to a compact stable minimal hypersurface whose singular set has dimension at most . If , the convergence is everywhere smooth and hence after some time , the moving surface has no singularities

Ex-astronaut tells students to be 'passionate'
Former astronaut John Bennett Herrington stood in a corner of a Fillmore cafeteria Wednesday morning surrounded by students.
Do something you love, he told them. Herrington did, and it took him on "a fabulous journey" — one he would have never predicted when he was in school.
In November 2002, Herrington was part of the 16th crew to go to the international space station, and on that mission he became the first American Indian to walk in space.
The trip on the Endeavour space shuttle lasted 13 days, 18 hours and 47 minutes. Herrington learned to sleep in zero gravity, his head fastened to a pillow. He served as the flight engineer during takeoff and landing and walked in space three times, doing what he described as "high-altitude" ironwork. When he touched down, he said, he wanted to do it again.
"Everybody here has the opportunity to do something remarkable with their lives," the retired Navy commander told hundreds of students gathered Wednesday at San Cayetano School in Fillmore. "Find something you're passionate about something you really want to do."
Herrington's visit to Fillmore began Tuesday night, when he hosted an assembly for the entire community at Fillmore Middle School. He gave two more presentations for students Wednesday.
His visit was one of the perks of San Cayetano's status as a NASA Explorer School. The K-5 school was one of five campuses in California picked for the program this year. NASA officials started the Explorer School program in 2003, setting up partnerships with more than 25 schools each year.
San Cayetano Principal Jan Marholin said the school has made it a priority to involve the entire community in its partnership with NASA.
"Space fascinates people, and an astronaut is a hero," she said, glancing over as Herrington fielded questions from a group of physics students who had walked to San Cayetano from Fillmore High School on Wednesday morning.
"I hope they get some inspiration," physics teacher Richard Buck said. His students can read in a textbook about how to apply what they learn in class, but when they get to meet someone who made a career out of it, "that makes a big impact," Buck said.
Herrington, 49, said he moved 14 times before he graduated from high school. He flunked out of college as a freshman because he wasn't motivated but went back later, receiving a bachelor's degree in applied mathematics from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in 1983. He then joined the Navy and became a test pilot.
In 1995, Herrington received a master's of science degree in aeronautical engineering, and the next year, he reported to NASA's Johnson Space Center, where he trained and qualified for a flight assignment as a mission specialist.
He followed his dream, he told the students, and one day he found himself holding onto a space station with his fingertips — with "nothing behind me but the rest of the universe."

Healthcare reform has ignited an populist explosion: what the Dickens is happening to America? To cite Dickens--media talking heads, or the views of thousands of assembled citizens from Iowa to Washington-- "it's the best of times; it's the worse of times."
Each of us seems to only hold fast to a single point of view and believe our view holds a monopoly on exclusive truth. Unequivocally. Without a doubt or second thought. Our single minded conclusions are unshakeable and unimpeachable. Hurling these "conclusions" is cited as "debate." This verbal stick checking passes for political engagement and masks itself as news.
But everyone with single-minded passions can take a disparate look at the facts.
Fact: our words and images, our faith in each other, are as broken as the health care system, and equally ratcheting beyond control. Health costs rise, and so does popular rhetoric. On voice mails: profanity and name-calling, threats, denigration, condemnation; in windows: bricks, gun shots; apparently from "parties unknown" on both sides.
What is the connection of this violent and verbal fringe to the larger body of people rallied around their unassailable points of view? Are these few influenced by the words and directives of bloggers who call for throwing bricks and running away? Are their single-minded beliefs the root of their violence and verbal assaults, the source of their blinders about the gross inappropriateness of their nameless acts of cowardice? Or is their impetus deep within their own character, with the political climate serving as a ruse for their "wilding out?"
Are talk radio hosts inflaming these passions as they hide behind free speech? How is this embedded fringe connected to the broader social milieu?
Has the protection of liberty and freedom become a guise for mean-spiritedness as well as over-spending?
Who lays claim to the 1776 revolutionary legacy? To the powers of the Constitution? To America's place among modern, industrial democracies? (America now ranks 14th among nations with college graduates.)
Who recalls the words of Thomas Paine, written by the American patriot in his pamphlet, Common Sense: "a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom."
Fact: American politics has never been about vandals, cowards, and robo-calls; opinion polls, talk show hosts, or real or imagined monsters of the left or the right.
As an American who voted for Bob Dole and Strom Thurmond (and may have even written Thurmond in on ballots after he died), I also remember my mother's maternal grandfather's freedom or health was neither written in or guaranteed by the Constitution and was proffered by a Presidential executive decree whose confirming legislative amendment was voted down in the US House before its passage. Now that same amendment is grotesquely distorted by the noble status of the American Double Standard. In its name, simple social requirements like community service are considered by those with a pretentious inability, as modern day slavery! ( See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOivmIeM7Po .)
My American life acknowledges complexity and contradictions. It is hard for me to see single-mindedness as a article of blind faith which holds forth the exclusive path of progress.
I hate the idea of mandated health care, but it was Mitt Romney's idea and without it, the system is easy to scam.
I hate the potentially expanded debt or the insurance company's potential windfall, but I support and am willing to pay for the right of all to live.
I hate the current vitriol, and remember being called the "N – word" and the lit cigarette butts hurled at my uniform collar as I marched in small town Christmas parades in an integrated SC high school band in desegregation's early years.
I remember Thomas Paine's words, in Common Sense: "Here then is the origin and rise of government; namely, a mode rendered necessary by the inability of moral virtue to govern the world; here too is the design and end of government, viz., freedom and security. And however our eyes may be dazzled with snow, or our ears deceived by sound; however prejudice may warp our wills, or interest darken our understanding, the simple voice of nature and of reason will say, it is right." Single-mindedly so, without exception. As it was during a time I remember decades ago, when a young student played Christmas carols and marches in front of floats and Santa Claus.

Mets to Wear Camouflage Jerseys for 5 Home Games
The Mets will wear camouflage jerseys for five home games next year as part of a "Military Monday" event that will include free tickets for U.S. servicemen and servicewomen.
The Mets will wear camouflage jerseys for five home games next year as part of a "Military Monday" event that will include free tickets for U.S. servicemen and servicewomen.
New York Met pitcher Matt Harvey is headed to the disabled list and may face Tommy John surgery.
Tonight is the 84th MLB All-Star game from Citi Field in Queens, NY (Home of the New York Mets
Mets pitching ace Matt Harvey is the starting pitcher for the National League...
Ah, you silly Mets fans. Jimmy Fallon and Matt Harvey kill it in this excellent bit.
When both the Yankees and Mets open their respective seasons at home on Monday they will making history.
It's just a few more days, and whether you root for the Yankees, Mets, Phillies or any other team, Opening Day is one of the best days of the year! Check out this cool video of Louisville Slugger making a baseball bat.
The Toronto Blue Jays tried Sunday night to close a trade for New York Mets ace R.A. Dickey, with the deal hinging on whether the NL Cy Young winner could work out a new contract.
David Wright and the New York Mets have reportedly agreed to a $138 million, eight-year contract that would be the richest in franchise history.
So today is game 162 for your beloved New York Mets. The final day of the regular baseball season vs. the Miami Marlins
Another season of disappointment. Not that the expectations were that high for the Mets this year anyway, but they were in contention up until the all-star break. That's a lot better than anyone expected at the start of the season.
So let's not talk about the bullpen blowing up like a Thanksgiving float, and Jason Bay's batting average being less than your body weight. Let's not even mention the fact the the fences were moved in this year at Citi field, and they still only managed to hit 67 home runs at home. Don't even mention how the Wilpons were looking for minority share owners for the team. Let's not talk about losing Mike Pelfrey at the beginning of the season.
Let's list the positives shall we (like a true optimist):
So to almost everyone's surprise this season the New York Mets are 31-23. 8 games OVER .500 and are just percentage points out of 1st place (as I am typing this, the Mets are trailing the Cardinals 5-4 in a day game at Citi Field)
Stand-up comic and political satirist Bill Maher revealed that he bought a minority share of the New York Mets a few months ago.
This is an incredible time of year if you are a Sports fan. Baseball is officially underway. We have Basketball, Hockey, and even Soccer going on now. You want more? How about Monmouth Park Racetrack opens this weekend. We currently have 3 local teams in the playoffs. And of course the NY Giants just won the Superbowl a few months ago.
Check out what all our other teams are doing

Greening the Festival
Please help us to make Wild & Scenic Green!
Ride your bike, carpool or take public transportation to Wild & Scenic. CHECK OUT this awesome ride share site (password: wildlife) to find or share a ride. There is also a BIG bulletin board at HQ. Please be sure to post your name and cell number if you are willing to give a ride to someone, or if you need a ride.
Bring your own REUSABLE COFFEE MUG to our event. Use your own coffee mug at concessions and get a discount on coffee.
Create a festival bag (or backpack). In your reusable bag, BRING YOUR OWN REUSABLE PLATE, UTENSILS, CUP, and NAPKIN. Although we have compostables at Wild & Scenic, using your own utensils is far more sustainable.
BUY A KLEAN KANTEEN REUSABLE CUP and get discounts on beer and wine throughout the festival!
Please AVOID BIO-PLASTICS! Yes, bio-plastics might be better than petroleum-based single-use plastics under certain circumstances, but they do not break down in home-scale compost piles, only in commercial composting facilities which are hard to find. The commercial composting center we use for the film festival – Recology – is unable to accept bio-plastics. They pollute the recycling stream because they look like recyclable plastic but they are not. They become landfill waste and are typically made from GMO corn, which requires a lot of land and water to grow.
Bring your own REUSABLE BAGS for shopping at HQ for merchandise.
Use the recycling and composting bins at the event. Let's get as close to ZERO WASTE as possible. Think before you throw – there are signs and volunteers who will help you to separate your recyclables, compostables, and landfill materials.
Are you buying a Weekend Pass? Bring your own REUSABLE LANYARD.
Look for the special recycling boxes in each venue – please be sure to RECYCLE YOUR PASS HOLDERS AND PROGRAMS before you leave the festival.
Do you have an ELECTRIC CAR? There is an electric car charging station at the back of the Miners Foundry.
Don't forget to bring your OWN REUSABLE WATER BOTTLE. No bottled water is sold at the festival. There are water fountains or taps at each venue. Plus, there are 2 water filters at the Miners Foundry, 1 at the Vets Hall, and 1 at Festival Headquarters – a generous donation from PureWater.
Do you need to buy a REUSABLE WATER BOTTLE? We'd like thank festival sponsor, KLEAN KANTEEN. We'll be selling their Wild & Scenic stainless steel bottles at HQ.
And lastly – how about buying some CARBON OFFSETS to cover your trip to the festival? Go to www.nativeenergy.com, www.terrapass.com, or www.carbonfund.org.
Thank you to the following for their help in the Greening of Wild & Scenic!
Nevada County Recycles has helped to provide the infrastructure for dealing with the event's landfill waste and recycling. Recology in Marysville will be accepting all of our sorted compostables. www.recology.com
For a complete list of community recycling services, look for the recycling guide in the 2013 AT&T Real Yellow Pages Recycling or at Waste Management's website. And be sure to check out Chico Bag at www.chicobag.com, another great regional sponsor dedicated to the success of Wild & Scenic.

These will be printed and delivered for free anywhere in India on the date you want. You can thus convey your heartfelt sentiments to make birthdays unforgettable. Send your happy birthday wishes with Post My Greetings.
Birthdays are truly distinctive in the sense that these are about a single person, as against most other special occasions. So, any one's birthday provides you with a chance to do something special just for that person. When you send a greeting card, it can be a private expression of your wishes as against, say, a message posted on social media that is a rather public expression of birthday love. The charm of receiving printed cards has not diminished significantly, even as email, text messages and telephone calls are used to convey birthday wishes by many. Give your friend a happy birthday greetings through Post My Greetings collection of greeting cards and make it special with your happy birthday message.
A thoughtful card can brighten the special day for the person whose bday it is. It can be a significant part of the celebration of some one as a person, at least for a day, even though he or she may not be a famous personality. A happy birthday card can make a difference for your friend on his birthday this year. That is one of the major reasons for which people often watch their mailboxes to see whether or not they have received any birthday greeting cards. Wish him a very happy b day this time with a bday greeting card.
As mentioned above, you can add photos from your personal collection to the happy bday card you customize and decide where to place the photos on these. You can also write custom messages to be printed on the cards. You can also choose from the broad range of clip art available for greater personalization. It may not be as personal as cutting and folding pieces of paper to create your own cards but comes pretty close!

Deep Learning
The challenge now facing medical educators is: How can health care professionals master complex new bodies of knowledge, technologies and procedures while also taking care of patients?
Dr. Farley says the answer is through the deep and enduring learning that comes from practicing difficult techniques in a safe, supportive simulation environment. "Which physician would you want working on you or your loved one -- the one who got the test question right on an exam? Or the one who worked with a team, the equipment and patient model in a realistic simulated setting and had his or her performance reviewed, and then got a chance to do it again?"
Inside Mayo's Simulation Center
The term "simulation center" can mean many things. Some medical centers call the closet where a mannequin is kept for demonstrating cardiopulmonary resuscitation the simulation center. Not so at Mayo Clinic. Its Multidisciplinary Simulation Center is a newly built complex. Four of its larger rooms can be configured and equipped to be exact replicas of Mayo Clinic surgical suites, emergency rooms, intensive care rooms, or the cardiac catheterization laboratory. Like independent stages in a theater, these rooms have multipurpose functionality. Additional smaller rooms can be configured as inpatient hospital rooms, an outpatient clinic, and other areas.
Control booths, observation rooms, and high-tech cameras attached to
every room allow medical educators to teach new techniques and simulate
