Let Us Now Ask Our Advertising Forefathers for Inspirational One-Liners - Posted July 20, 2012
During any given day working at an advertising agency, it's only natural to ask oneself a variety of questions while staring blankly at your computer screen. "Why is today dragging along so slowly? What about the art on this ad seems off? Why am I crying so much?" Of course, you'll find... [GalleyCat]

When I was pregnant with G and we were frantically trying to figure out our budget for our family and a new baby and a J.Crew habit, the discussion of the D word came up.
No not that D word. That would be absurd.
Daycare. (duh duh duuuuh …scary music).
2 years ago, at the mere mention of the word, I started crying. See, despite my outward bitchiness, my level of empathy for babies, animals and kids who get bullied, is like off the charts. Last weekend I ran upstairs in tears when my family decided to watch Planet of the Apes. THEY WERE GOING TO KILL A BABY APE.
Anyway, so the thought of leaving my baby in the hands of perfectly capable strangers was unthinkable. What if my baby thinks that I abandoned him? What if they leave him in a crib all day? What if they dress him up like Hello Kitty and post it to YouTube? So we made it work and I stayed home with G for 16 months.
And here we are 16 months later. And G is running and climbing and playing and hugging and kicking and dancing and ready for some social time. And just as that thought entered my brain, an amazing opportunity came my way.
Starting in May, I will be a contributing writer at Babble.com. I'll be writing for them 3 times a week and I'm really very excited about it. Because I'll be getting a real salary. Like real sort of money. And trust me, we need it. We need it badly enough that I'm calling every day care on the block asking about part time availability for G and how quickly I can cart his cloth diapered butt over there.
And I don't have one ounce of hesitation about it.
See, there came a point in our relationship (me and G) where mom just wasn't as fun anymore. The sensory box was kind of where things ended. G needs way more stimulation that I can provide him on a daily basis and I'm happy to leave that to the professionals. He wants crap like creative water play and building shit and running around in masks. I just don't have it in me. And while G is doing his thing with smart kid people, I will actually have time to "work".
And then I realized this: It's happened. It's really happened. I'm going to work and doing what I love. That's the dream. That's what Oprah always told me. Do what you love and it's not work. Do what you love and you'll be good at it. And that's why I'm so excited to be working for the people at Babble and to working for myself on MODG (don't worry I won't forget about our little place here on the internet. We're still boys) and getting to do things like Listen to your Mother. This signifies me growing up and growing into something that is really me. Because me wasn't a recruiter and me wasn't in an office from 9-5 and me was happier than that.
And that's why I'm more than OK with daycare now. Because I can proudly be a mom who is teaching G by example to do what you love for a lot or a little money. It makes all the difference in who you are. And who I am is…a writer?? Yeah, I still can't really say that without giggling a little under my breath.
But B likes to say, who I am is working for Disney. BARF. Babble was just bought by Disney. Let's just say I'm Pooh and Mickey's #1 street enemy. So yes, B runs around singing M-I-C SEE YOU REAL SOON. And I say, I'll see your ass handed to your face. Or something like that.
I'm looking forward to this next part of my life. I think I'm going to learn a lot more about being a mom and who I am as a non mom too. And I probably won't worry so much about Hello Kitty porn. Will I put future baby #2 in daycare? Probably not for a while. I understand why people have to do it and they have all of my respect in the world, but I will move a mountain of rabid squirrels before I give that first year of my newborn's life to someone else. I'm lucky because I have that choice.
And I'm lucky because I'm making a little dream happen.
And I'm lucky that you're still reading this because the cheese level is at about a 9 right now.
Happy Day MODG.

Flow Quantum or Drifter?
I'm currently trying to decide between two boards:
2012 Flow Quantum 158 or 2012 Flow Drifter 159
Im 23, riding for about years now, a size 10 boot and I weigh about 170 lbs. Ride about 15% park (Rails, Boxes, Features, kickers, spinning 3s and 5s, etc.), 15% groomers (speed and riding switch), 30% Tree Runs, 40% Backcountry (Powder, Back Bowls, Access Gates, Steep and Deep!). I'm always focused on powder and lines and dropping stuff in and out of bounds and then hitting everything else when conditions aren't great and I like to stay in the trees a lot.
I'm headed to Jackson Hole again in December for 2 weeks need some help deciding which of these boards to take! I really thought the solitude would be a good choice but didn't think it was well rounded enough for me. Thanks for all any help or suggestions. Gonna be getting the nxt-fse bindings too.
Anyone know how the convex base on the drifter is for edge to edge transitions and my bottoms line would prob be having a board thats going to perform well in steep and deep powder run and in the trees.

The new X-ray method is used to determine the atomic structure of the surface of different materials. The goal of the present research is to understand how catalysts work at atomic level – both the catalytic converters used for vehicle emissions control in cars and catalysts used in industry.
"Today, almost all developments in catalysts take place through a method of trial and error, but in order to be able to develop better catalysts in the future, deeper understanding of the atomic level is needed", says Dr Johan Gustafson, a researcher at the Department of Physics at Lund University.
A catalyst works by capturing the molecules that are to react on a catalytic surface. The effect of the surface on the molecules is to speed up the desired reaction. The surfaces of different materials capture and affect molecules in different ways. The new X-ray method offers researchers a significantly improved insight into what happens on these surfaces and in their active sites, i.e. the places where the molecules attach and react.
With this knowledge, the material in the catalyst can be optimised to speed up desired reactions and slow down others. The new X-ray method not only provides an instant picture of the situation on a surface, but can also be used to monitor changes over the time that the surface is subjected to different treatments.
"This could be a catalytic reaction that happens on the surface, as in our case. But it would also be possible to monitor how nanostructures grow or how metals oxidise, in conjunction with corrosion, as protection against corrosion or to change the properties of the surface in another way", says Johan Gustafson.
The researchers have developed the new X-ray method by using X-rays of around five times higher energy than usual. This means that a larger amount of data can be measured simultaneously, which in turn drastically reduces the time taken to conduct a full surface structure determination, from ten hours with the traditional method to roughly ten minutes with the new method.

A Teen Mom Does Jail Time
Troubled "Teen Mom" star Amber Portwood was arrested in December 2011 for violating the terms of her probation stemming from a 2010 arrest for domestic violence. (Between the two arrests, the mom of 4-year-old Leah attempted suicide, was placed in rehab, and lost custody of her daughter.) A judge gave Amber the option to complete a court-ordered rehab program rather than serve time behind bars, but the reality star opted to take the five-year prison sentence, which she began serving in June. "I felt like I'd rather do my time and get it over with," she said. We're not so sure about her logic, but at least she's getting help one way or the other!
BING: Why was Amber charged with domestic violence?
FIND: Who is Leah's father?
SEARCH: What did Amber say about her suicide attempt?

Windows Genuine Advantage plagues early Vista release
updated 03:55 pm EDT, Mon September 25, 2006
Vista WGA Plague
Introduced late into Windows XP's lifecycle, Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) was intended by Microsoft as a means of allowing security updates for all users while preventing illegal copies from sharing the feature improvements and general fixes that legitimate owners could enjoy. In practice, a significant number of paying users have been barred from valuable downloads through error or unscrupulous vendors. Recent test versions of Windows Vista show that this problem may well persist, according to ZDNet's Ed Bott. Despite a legitimate download and product key, the release candidate copy of Vista that Bott and other beta testers have received has periodically refused to download updates, inaccurately stating that the affected copies are illegal. The return of Microsoft's controversial anti-piracy scheme is not only a relatively late discovery for Vista users, writes Bott, but in its current state is likely to cause more errors than Microsoft would claim. While they may still be fixed for the final release candidate, these WGA problems are occurring near the end of the development cycle and may affect the final version. Beta versions of Office 2007 are also said to experience the problem.

Gamma Rays, a form of electromagnetic radiation. Of all forms of electromagnetic radiation, gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and greatest energy. Gamma rays were discovered in 1900 by Paul Villard, a French physicist. They can be detected with photographic film or plates, or with such devices as Geiger-Mller counters and scintillation counters.
Gamma rays can be produced either as a result of a nuclear reaction or by the annihilation of matter by antimatter. Nuclear reactions that result in the emission of gamma rays include some types of radioactive decay and the fission (splitting) of a nucleus.
Gamma rays are very penetrating; even a thick sheet of a dense material such as lead will not block them entirely. When gamma rays pass through matter, they eject electrons from the atoms they strike. This process, called ionization, is harmful to living cells. A living thing exposed to intense or prolonged gamma radiation can become seriously ill and die.
Gamma rays are used in industry to inspect castings and welds. The gamma rays are passed through the object being inspected onto photographic film. The image formed on the film can reveal defects that are invisible to the eye or hidden from direct observation. In medicine, gamma rays are used to destroy certain types of cancer. Cobalt 60 is a substance that is commonly used in hospitals as a source of gamma rays for this purpose.
Artificial satellites have revealed that a variety of astronomical objects, including the sun, clouds of interstellar matter, and remnants of supernovae, are sources of gamma rays. They have also detected strong, random bursts of gamma rays from unknown distant sources.

Wine just one of pilot's adventures

Holmes Harbor's labels come from the same watercolor painting. Putting all five labels together reveals the full piece of artwork.
Martinez, who owns Holmes Harbor Cellars on Whidbey Island with his wife, Theresa, is a Navy pilot and veteran of the war in Afghanistan who also has flown big commercial jets.
After growing up east of Los Angeles, Martinez was a food science major at Cal Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo.
He flew jets for Northwest Airlines before it went bankrupt, and these days is based at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island near Oak Harbor, where he flies a Growler, a fighter jet whose primary mission is electronic jamming.
In 2010, he spent nearly three months in Afghanistan.
"As a reservist, I train students," he said. "Occasionally, we are asked to augment a squadron."
Theresa, a scientist in Seattle, took care of the winemaking while he was overseas. He returned the first week of September, just in time for harvest.
The Martinezes make about 1,500 cases of wine, growing from the 550 cases they produced in 2006 when they launched Holmes Harbor. They named the winery after the harbor they have a view of from their winery in the town of Greenbank.
Martinez brings in grapes from the Yakima Valley and Lake Chelan, as well as from some of the top vineyards in the Walla Walla Valley. He has used fruit from Les Collines and Spofford Station for a few years and last fall began bringing in grapes from famed Seven Hills Vineyard.
Holmes Harbors' labels are a watercolor painting created by an area artist. The painting is a panorama that spans five of Martinez's wines, so putting all the bottles together reveals the full artwork.
Here are four Holmes Harbor Cellars wines we've tasted in recent weeks. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the winery directly at 360-331-3544.
Holmes Harbor Cellars 2009 Teragré Red Etude, Washington, $37: This is Greg Martinez's signature wine, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah that is rich and delicious. This opens with aromas of raspberry jam, fresh mint, black licorice and oak, followed by plump flavors of raspberry juice, ripe strawberry, boysenberry and plum, all backed with ripe flavors and round, sweet tannins. Enjoy this big red with grilled flank steak or a rich Italian dish.
Holmes Harbor Cellars 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, $31: This is one of the best and most intriguing Cabernet Sauvignons we've tasted this year. The grapes come from top Walla Walla Valley vineyards, and Greg Martinez's winemaking prowess shines in this bottling. It starts with aromas that remind us of a blueberry Pop-Tart, masala chai, mint, plum and pomegranate. On the palate, it offers flavors of black cherry, dark chocolate and boysenberry. It's a muscular, big-shouldered wine with rich flavors and a lengthy finish. Pair this with venison, lamb chops, ribeye or lasagna.
Holmes Harbor Cellars 2009 Merlot, Walla Walla Valley, $28: For this alluring Merlot, Greg Martinez uses grapes from Les Collines Vineyard, just north of the Oregon border, and Spofford Station, just south of the border. It tempts with aromas of black peppercorn, boysenberry, smoked bacon, mint and cherry, then delivers flavors of dark chocolate, cherry syrup and raspberry. It's all backed with fine-grained tannins and has a line of minerality running through the aromas and flavors.
Holmes Harbor Cellars 2009 Syrah, Walla Walla Valley, $30: The grapes for this superb Syrah are from Les Collines, a vineyard near the Oregon border that is owned by Norm McKibben of Pepper Bridge fame. This wine opens with aromas of dusty cranberry, raspberry, plum and some alluring sizzling bacon notes. A rich entry leads to flavors of wild plum, blackberry, ham and a hint of oregano. Enjoy this with lamb chops, sweetbreads or a steak topped with sauteed mushrooms.

$149 Nook: The E-Reader's Demise Begins With a Race to the Bottom
Barnes & Noble has just revealed its Wi-Fi-only Nook, the first serious attempt at undercutting Amazon's Kindle e-reader business with a store and hardware combo. But it's more than that: It's a sign of the changing e-reader game.
The Nook Wi-Fi is basically the same as the original 3G-enabled Nook e-reader, with all the expensive 3G wireless tech taken out. Think of it as the Nook equivalent to the Wi-Fi-only iPad—and just as with Apple's machines, the simpler device costs less as there's less hardware inside. The clever thing B&N has done is to pin the price point of the Wi-Fi-only Nook at just $149. That's a truly magical price, and since the device comes with the huge B&N e-bookstore ecosystem behind it, and has that funky color touchscreen aboard it'll no doubt attract many a shopper who'd been previously shy of buying an e-reader through cost implications—or not wanting to buy a totally new class of device from a cheap but unheard-of provider. The limitations of only being able to download new books or use the Nook's Web powers only when in range of a wireless network won't really be an issue for many folk just looking to buy their first digital book reader, particularly at that attractive price.
But B&N have done more than this—the price of the original 3G-powered Nook has also been dropped to just $199, making it the "first under-$200 dedicated full-featured e-book reader that offers both free 3G wireless and Wi-Fi connectivity" according to B&N's press release. It's potent stuff, and it makes Amazon's Kindle 2, with no color screen and an aging-looking design look like even more of an expensive dinosaur at $259. B&N are, of course, trying to leverage cheaper hardware sales to lure potential buyers away from the glitzy but more expensive Apple iPad, and the booksellers are also really trying to push their hardware so that the users will then buy more e-books from B&N rather than any other e-retailer—like Amazon.
Yet the move is also symbolic of the e-reader's only true option in the changing mobile-device market: The beginning of the race to the bottom. It's a parallel to the netbook phenomenon, which saw a cheap, low-powered reinvention of the notebook PC hit the market and attract buyers because of its cheap price and perceived hardware benefits (like a long battery life). The strategy worked at an incredible pace at first, because the prices were so ridiculous and seemed to be getting ever-cheaper. But then the average Joe became aware of the netbook's serious limitations, and its supposedly longer battery life suddenly seemed less attractive. Now the phenomenon is over, and the netbook is merely another class of computer to buy—at a lower price, with many fewer capabilities. This is how the e-reader market is likely to go too: The device's only real benefits are the e-ink screens, which are marketed as easier on the eye than tablet PC's LCD units, and longer battery life. Starting from this simple basis, the machines can hardly get smarter as they'll start to compete with full-on tablets, and the e-ink technology just can't deliver video or even simple gaming or web-browsing very well, so they'll just have to get cheaper and cheaper in order to attract users.
Despite efforts by even the great Ray Kurzweil to beef up the way e-readers work (why is their pagination and font control so poor? why are the UIs insufferable?) the e-reader is, I think, doomed. This race to the bottom will work for a bit, and then the phenomenon will fizzle, and the e-reader will tag along as another mobile PC form factor, with a few specialist benefits which'll appeal to some users. Its place will be taken with the all-purpose tablet PC ... just as soon as folk realize there's more you can do with these, and that the LCD screen is absolutely fine for reading from.

Nearly all of my coworkers have bought a fancy hand held device - either an eReader or a fancy tablet/iPad. I actually bought an HP Tablet, and ended up returning it. The key benefits to these 6" devices, which the other devices cannot beat, are many: 1) fantastic reading experience (w/ the Nook, which I bought this week), in terms of clairity and outside visibility. 2) Weight. The nook weighs less than each of the hardbacks I'm trying to get through. 3) Legible notation - being able to add my notes at a place in the book that don't smudge. 4) Integrated dictionary. My hope/anticipation is that my kids will make good use of this feature!
The whole point is to spend time reading books not downloading. My Archos PMA400 has wireless capability but I never use it. I use my desktop to download and transfer the files via USB. But I have a 30 gig hard drive and can play videos and music and games.
So users have to decide what features the want but 3G is mostly just a waste of money in a book reader.
Well, to be fair, this segment is hardly close to maturing. In the end convenience wins, not just price. And there will always be both the Mercedes Benz and the Suzuki. At the high end we will have crisp, slim flexible E-Ink equivalents with touchscreen functions and the like and the rear will be brought up by devices slightly larger than the kindle/ nook at very low prices compared to today. Flexible devices that are light and dont take much battery will not be 'just another computer'.
"...the LCD screen is absolutely fine for reading from."
I have to disagree; LCD screens are far less enjoyable to read than e-ink. LCD is fine for short periods of reading, but e-ink is more comfortable - even with its slower refresh and grayscale format.
I believe the $150 and soon to appear $100 e-readers will herald in a wider acceptance of the e-reader. These devices were never designed to compete with computers or tablets. They were designed to compete with paper books. Once you get to the lower price point with the convenience of wireless downloads and the newer, better e-ink screens, e-readers will explode - even if tablets gain wider acceptance.
...Also, despite the prognostications of a few, tablets, which have their niche, are not ready to replace standard-form computers - and they probably never will. Over the years, people have said that desktops were supposed to replace mainframes, laptops were supposed to replace desktops, netbooks were supposed to replace laptops, smart-phones were supposed to replace netbooks, etc; they are all still here and they seemingly all have their place.
In reality, should book retailers (online or in stores) give away their eReaders in order to boost sales from their publication inventory? The classic loss leader. If someone, say, buys three books, why not offer that person $10 or a free eReader? Since that person has purchased three books, you know you are dealing with a reader. Plus make the offer to buyers of, or browsers for, eReaders from other companies.

While trying to think of something to blog about I realised two things. One, I work better with set themes for days, and two I don't really blog about gaming. At first I left gaming blogging for tenletter, but I've been lax on that front as well. It also seems silly to not blog about gaming here, giving that I spend a lot of time gaming - it wasn't as good a weekend as it could have been if there was no gaming; or rather "What no gaming this weekend? :(" So from now on Friday's will be talk about gaming day, covering all the forms I take part in and any fun off shots of gaming and geek culture.
For the first Friday Fun post I'm giving a shout out to Nevermet Press, and the Stories in the Ether project. Check it out if you write fantasy/scifi/steam punk short stories.

Think of how disempowered little girls everywhere will feel when they google Lea Michele or 'Glee pictures', and see these portrayals. Thanks to everybody involved in creating images like these for another 100 steps (years) backwards.
A true example of trying too hard. I'm gonna love it when this show goes off the air and everyone ends up in rehab or something. Remember the Brady Bunch, Marsha Brady anyone?

Stable continental Region (SCR) Enigma
Problem StatementIn a paper titled Tectonic Summaries for Web-served Earthquake Responses Southeastern North America Russell L. Wheeler of the U.S. Geological Survey considered the seismic activity of several ares on the continental US. Considered to be "stable", as described below, there are numerous areas that nevertheless historically display enigmatic seismic activity. Excerpted below is a section of the general introduction
A stable continental region (SCR) is a continent or part of a continent that has not undergone major geologically recent deformation or any accompanying metamorphic or igneous processes (Johnston 1989; Kanter 1994). North America east of the Rocky Mountains is the type example of an SCR because the concept of an SCR was developed to identify global analogs of the central and eastern United States (CEUS) as part of a strategy to better characterize CEUS seismic hazard (Coppersmith and others 1987). Each continent has at least one SCR and Asia has five (Kanter 1994).
Deformation within SCRs differs from that at or near plate boundaries. Although SCR seismicity is evidence of current deformation the amount of deformation in SCRs is small and the rate of deformation is slow compared to those at or near plate boundaries. The comparatively slow accumulation of slip on most SCR faults means that geologically recent surface ruptures on SCR faults are rare (Crone and others 1997). Additionally although epicenter maps show that seismicity is ubiquitous in the North American SCR generally it is sparse and scattered compared to that at or near plate boundaries. Few places in the SCR have had enough instrumental earthquakes to liluminate the causative faults. Finally plate boundaries are distant from the United States and southern Canadian part of the SCR the closest being the Mid-Atlantic Ridge to the east the Hispaniola Trough to the south and the San Andreas fault system and Cascadia subduction zone to the west.
Because of these SCR characteristics the relation between seismicity and plate tectonics is enigmatic in the southern part of the North American SCR. The enigma exists even in the SCR's most seismically active locality the New Madrid seismic zone (Atkinson and others 2000). In fact the link between most SCR seismicity and known faults is also poorly understood which severely limits the amount of information and understanding with which to write tectonic summaries for the SCR.
The paper continues by detaliing the enigmatic areas providing a general description simliar to the extract below. In each case the paper notes the general lack of association with a know plate boundary or know deep fault system.
Adirondack MountainsEARTHQUAKES IN THE ADIRONDACK REGION
The Adirondack region of northern New York State is one of the more seismically active parts of the northeastern U.S. The three largest known earthquakes in the region caused about $20 mlilion of damage (in 2002 dollars) to Cornwall New York and to Massena Ontario in 1944 (magnitude 5.8) caused slight damage in a sparsely settled part of the southern Adirondack Mountains in 1983 (magnitude 4.9) and damaged the vicinity of Plattsburg New York on Aprli 20 2002 (magnitude 5.0). Moderately damaging earthquakes strike somewhere in the region every few decades and smaller earthquakes are felt about once every three or four years.
Earthquakes in the central and eastern U.S. although less frequent than in the western U.S. are typically felt over a much broader region. East of the Rockies an earthquake can be felt over an area as much as ten times larger than a simliar magnitude earthquake on the west coast. A magnitude 4.0 eastern U.S. earthquake typically can be felt at many places as far as 100 km (60 mi) from where it occurred and it infrequently causes damage near its source. A magnitude 5.5 eastern U.S. earthquake usually can be felt as far as 500 km (300 mi) from where it occurred and sometimes causes damage as far away as 40 km (25 mi).
Earthquakes everywhere occur on faults within bedrock usually mlies deep. Most of the Adirondack region's bedrock was formed as several generations of mountains rose and were eroded down again over the last blilion or so years.
Research conducted in the course of this investigation has reveled that the areas considered in this USGS report to have been either the site of a PZ cratering event or the recipient of a mega-ejecta emplacement. We wlil specifically here discuss the Adirondack region but we will endeavor to devote other proof sets to the areas discussed in the paper
At well-studied plate boundaries like the San Andreas fault system in California often scientists can determine the name of the specific fault that is responsible for an earthquake. In contrast east of the Rocky Mountains this is rarely the case. The Adirondack region is far from the nearest plate boundaries which are in the center of the Atlantic Ocean and in the Caribbean Sea. The region is laced with known faults but numerous smaller or deeply buried faults remain undetected. Even the known faults are poorly located at earthquake depths. Accordingly few Adirondack earthquakes can be linked to named faults. It is difficult to determine if a known fault is stlil active and could slip and cause an earthquake. As in most other areas east of the Rockies the best guide to earthquake hazards in the Adirondack region is the earthquakes themselves.

The Adirondack Region of is presented in this treatise as being an ejecta emplacement. The emplacement of this enormous mass of land suddenly upon the stable continental shield has created an unstable gravity balance. Supportive evidence to be discussed include the relative "youth" of the river system draining the area, the oveall geographic match to the generic PZ ejecta overlay, and the correlated alignment with the Western Gulf of Mexico Terminal (WGM) crater event.

To a waning tablet market, where rival Apple dominates, Samsung introduced The Galaxy Tab S, in New York at Madison Square Garden.
The company appears to be taking a break from the enterprise; with emphasis on display and content, this device is aimed more at the consumer market. Still, there are some productivity features that could mean business.
Yankee Group VP of Research Carl Howe commented, "These new Samsung devices are designed to go head-to-head against Apple's iPad Air and iPad mini retina at the same US$399 and US$499 price points. They are a bit larger and a bit thinner than the Apple products, and they weigh about the same. They also offer AMOLED displays, which are higher resolution than Apple's."
Enhanced productivity and security features provide users with the ability to more easily and safely multitask. Users can make and receive calls directly from their phone to their Galaxy Tab S, no matter where their phone is with the call forwarding feature via SideSync 3.0.
Simultaneously, without closing out of one to access another, users can surf the web, watch videos, share content and still make calls. With Quick Connect, Galaxy Tab S quickly finds and connects to nearby devices, for easy content sharing. These features are all available on both WiFi and LTE versions.
Multi User Mode enables users to create their own personal optimized profile, safe and convenient access with a built-in fingerprint scanner and a specially designed kids' mode with its own dedicated interface and kid-friendly applications.
Super AMOLED
The Galaxy Tab S has a wider range of rich and crisp colors, with a WQXGA (2560x1600, 16:10) Super AMOLED display that delivers more than 90% of Adobe RGB color coverage—expressing more colors than ever before. It has a 100,000:1 contrast ratio to provide deeper and more realistic images by making blacks darker and whites brighter.
The device also features Adaptive Display that is meant to ensure the best visual experience anywhere, anytime by intelligently adjusting gamma, saturation, and sharpness based on the application being viewed, the color temperature of the viewing environment and ambient lighting. Pre-set professional modes – AMOLED Cinema and AMOLED Photo – also let users manually adjust the display settings for bright, dynamic results for both video and photo content.
Content can be clearly seen outdoors, even in bright sunlight.
Since Super AMOLED technology doesn't require a backlight, this tablet consumes less energy than comparative LCD displays while maintaining a portable design. Both models have a sleek 6.6mm profile and at only 465g (10.5-inch) and 294g (8.4-inch), are light and easy to carry. A longer-lasting battery, and Ultra-Power Saving Mode allows users more hours of entertainment without having to recharge.
Content Eco-System
The Galaxy Tab S is made for entertainment and comes packed with a variety of content. Many content partners were present at the unveiling.
Samsung's magazine service, "Papergarden" debuts on the Galaxy Tab S. An optimized viewing environment for digital interactive magazines, users will be able to view a wide range of popular magazines with vivid and true-to-life colors.
Galaxy Gifts: Samsung has teamed up with more than 30 of the world's leading mobile content and service providers to offer its users the ultimate home, work, and play entertainment experience through premium content and services across a wide range of industries.
Some of these include:
Marvel: With access over 15,000 Marvel Comics through 3 months of unlimited free membership to Marvel's "Marvel Unlimited" app.
Kindle for Samsung: Exclusively for Samsung customers, and customized for the Galaxy Tab S, users will receive a free book every month through Samsung Book Deals, plus the ultimate e-reading experience with access to a vast selection of e-books in the Kindle store.
Partnership with Google Play, Google's online digital entertainment store offering apps, games, music, movies, books and magazines. To get started, Samsung and Google Play are offering several gifts: access to a range of movie and entertainment content, including the Warner Bros. Academy Award winning movie "Gravity" as well a variety of books. and magazines from top publishers through the "My Library" widget.
Users can also enjoy Netflix, available in high definition for the first time for Galaxy users in select countries.
Connectivity options include: Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi and LTE, available in 16/32GB + MicroSD (up to 128GB). Users can also choose between the 10.5-inch and 8.4-inch versions, in Titanium Bronze or Dazzling White. The Galaxy Tab S will be available in select markets from the end of June, 2014.
Market Assessment
Howe doesn't expect to see much action in the tablet market this summer. It won't be until afterwards that things heat up. He said, "Samsung's challenge is that Apple's tablets continue to outsell Samsung's, and Apple will likely refresh both its iPad models this fall. Samsung still suffers from the smaller number of tablet apps on the Android platform that aren't just scaled up smartphone apps. Further, despite introducing a wealth of tablet models, Samsung's tablets still don't sell as well as Apple's. I see the head-to-head matchup between the two to be most significant during the next two months of back-to-school season, at which point Apple's 2014 model iPads will close Samsung's window of opportunity."

Nolting Mfg., Inc. recommends cleaning the tracks and wheels after each quilt is completed. Use a wad of poly batting. It is mildly abrasive and will remove small particles well. Run the batting down the tracks from the
middle out. The outward motion will brush the debris out the end of the track. Then apply pressure to the batting against the wheels and roll the Longarm machine in both directions, to remove any particles from each wheel.
Then repeat the track cleaning a second time. Remember to clean all four tracks and all eight wheels. If you practice this after each quilt your machine will always run smoothly and your wheels will last much longer. If you have an older Nolting with stained or rusted tracks, clean them up with steel wool or a fine emery cloth. After that, continue the process with poly batting. Cleaning and lubricating are important to the long-term life of your

Australia seal series over FranceComment on this story
Melbourne - Australia prevailed 6-0 over France in a dour, try-less contest on Saturday to seal the three-test series 2-0 and leave a subdued Melbourne crowd cold.
In a low-quality clash littered with handling errors, second half penalties to flyhalf Bernard Foley and scrumhalf Nic White were enough for the Wallabies to seal a scrappy win despite perfect conditions under the closed roof of Docklands stadium.
Having allowed the Wallabies to do what they pleased in the 50-23 opener in Brisbane, a more resolute Les Bleus, complete with 10 changes to the starting lineup, had the better of a scoreless first half, though rarely posed any attacking threat until a last-gasp raid in the final minutes.
Playing in Melbourne, heartland of Australian Rules football, the Wallabies appeared determined to kick away possession, but derived little advantage from the tactic, and blew several promising drives with poor execution.
France executed the first promising move, however, a kick forward in the third minute sparking a foot-race between Foley and fullback Brice Dulin to the line, but the Wallabies flyhalf prevailed by inches to cut off the chance.
The Wallabies were controversially denied what would have been the match's opening try to number eight Ben McCalman on video review in the 22nd minute, prompting howls of derision from the stands.
A smart chipped kick from inside the French 22-yard line by inside centre Matt Toomua allowed McCalman to touch down but in the wild scramble toward the line Toomua was deemed to have tackled an opponent without the ball, though the contact was minimal and superfluous to the play.
After Dulin missed a long-range penalty in the opening quarter, scrumhalf Morgan Parra botched a second three minutes before the break, leaving both teams scoreless to halftime and a crowd of 27,000 frustrated.
Wallabies scrumhalf White repaid the favour twice in two minutes straight after the re-start, spraying the first kick wide and striking the post with the second, and though the rebound opened up a scoring chance out wide, the home side left it begging with a pass that sailed too high.
Foley finally ticked the scoreboard over in the 53rd minute with a penalty kick from straight in front, drawing ironic cheers from the crowd.
France was perhaps the more profligate, however, their few forays into the Wallabies' half cut short by an errant pass or handling error.
An off-side penalty against replacement flanker Antoine Burban gave White a penalty he could not miss in the 65th minute but the scrum-half sprayed a simple chance to make it 9-0 with nine minutes left.
France pushed in vain for a try in the final minutes, briefly rousing the unenthused crowd but the Wallabies cut off the threat to win their sixth successive match before next week's final test in Sydney. - Reuters

Wining in the Kitchen: Top 8 Ways to Cook with Wine so You Won't Hate What You Ate
By Antonia Moran, Contributing Writer, Bottlenotes.com
1. Use only wine you would drink, for your dish will take on the qualities of the wine you use, particularly if it is added towards the end of the cooking process.
2. Stay away from cooking wine! The bottles you will find on supermarket shelves tend to be harsh and unbalanced (either too salty or too sweet), and the acidity and astringency will only intensify with cooking. What you want is a balanced wine.
3. First reduce wine, and then add other ingredients to complete the sauce.
4. Adding wine at the end is not recommended unless you want pure wine taste in the sauce.
5. Adding more wine than is called for is generally not a good idea, as the sauce's balance could become disrupted. Therefore, measure accurately!
6. Alternatively, using less wine than is called for might be cause for disappointment in the result. If a dish requires an entire bottle, all the liquid may be necessary to cook the meat and any less will probably alter the flavor, particularly with respect to acidity. Some acidity is good! It adds life to a dish.
7. Salty foods and sweet wines don't mix, so don't cook with them! Chicken à la Sauterne…hmmmm -- sounds like Chung King to me!
8. Choose wines according to the food you are cooking. A light fish in a complex or acidic red wine will be lost and result in an unbalanced, overly acidic dish.

A cornerstone of graduate housing will be removed from campus this summer, leaving many residents with no quarter.
Originally built 66 years ago to be the home of veterans and their families following World War II, Cooperstown, the officer-style barracks turned dormitory, will be demolished to make way for more modern undergraduate housing.
The "decommissioning" of the seven-building complex off Woodland Avenue, which was home to doctor, lawyer and NFL great Jim Kovach in the '70s, is part of UK's master plan updates that includes plans to build up to 9,000 new beds for undergraduates over the next few years.
"Cooperstown has been good solid housing for a lot of students and families throughout the years, but I don't think anyone would argue that it's not badly outdated and not in line with what (UK) wants to offer students in the long term, in terms of residential housing," UK spokesman Jay Blanton said.
In order to begin the construction of new buildings, UK has to demolish the old ones on site, meaning students who are living there now have to leave and find somewhere else to go.
UK is asking all residents to vacate Cooperstown by June 7, along with all graduate and non-degree seeking students who live in other graduate housing structures on campus, such as the Shawneetown and Greg Page complexes.
One such student being asked to leave is Lipiang Fu, a visiting scholar from southern China who has a few months left at UK before she goes back home. Fu is one of many students who is being asked to leave her current living arrangements, and is lost on where she will be living in the next few months.
"I came here to do research," she said. "Not to worry about where I am going to live."
Visiting Scholars like Fu stay at a foreign university for a 12-month year, not just an academic year, before heading back home.
"I go back to China in September," she said. "I would like to stay where I am until then."
Fu, along with many other students in a wide array of related housing predicaments, have submitted appeals to UK to be allowed to stay on campus, but won't hear back until mid-April at the earliest. Without knowing if she will have to find her own place to live over the summer, or if UK will provide or help locate alternate housing, Fu is left in a nerve-wracking limbo.
"It is an unstable life here," she said. "I feel great pressure for us because we are looking for a house." Most apartments in Lexington lease for 12-month periods — too long for students like Fu to sign.
Being able to sympathize with UK's position, Fu said that she just wanted to cooperate and get through the process with minimal inconveniences, but felt that she was being tossed out into a storm by herself, and had no idea how to weather it.
"The people here are very nice," she said. "The teachers are very nice, but this new policy is very not nice."
One option for visiting scholars like Fu may be to temporarily take residence in the vacant undergraduate dormitories over the summer.
But that might not work for some students such as those with families or different schedules.
Yuanlin Qi, a Visiting Scholar from Fujian, China, lives in Cooperstown with his wife and daughter.
He said that the most troubling part is his daughter's education. She is in the third grade and could be forced to move schools again if they are forced to move off of campus. The Qis leave the country in December, again too short a time to sign a lease off campus, but too long a time to stay in Cooperstown.
There will be no guarantees on what the appeals committee will decide, according to Blanton and Ben Crutcher, UK's assistant auxiliary vice president, which may leave the Qis and Fu between a rock and a hard place this summer.
"The process isn't perfect," said Blanton, adding that there will be bumps along the road to better on campus housing.
"There are challenges associated with this process," Blanton said. "But I think it's clear that (UK) is trying to do what's best for the most people involved."
For those residents who have to leave the complexes, and who do manage to sign a lease off campus, UK will write a check for $750 — an amount that is approximately equal to one month's rent. UK is also looking into the possibility of renting out area apartments and then leasing them back to displaced students and scholars at the same price that they are currently paying to stay on campus, Blanton said.
Going beyond that, UK will offer surplus furniture to the new renters, for little or no cost once the legal issues have been sorted out. According to Blanton, every option is being explored to help students like Fu and families like the Qis make an easy transition between residencies, and that is partly why the process has begun this early and taking so long to complete.
Acknowledging that the process can be frustrating, Blanton said everything is being done to keep the transition as smooth as possible for students.
"It is completely understandable that there is anxiety and apprehension by someone being impacted by this transition," he said.
"But to be able to move forward with revitalizing housing, which virtually everyone agrees needs to be done, we need to be able to decommission these outdated structures now."
Not every resident is concerned with the demolition. Business management senior Colleen Fitzpatrick is going to graduate this semester and is happy that the buildings are going to be taken down.
"It's so old, and it kind of smells funky," she said of Cooperstown building G. "I'm actually going to take advantage of the fact that they're tearing it down, and I'm going to stay in the apartment until June. Which is nice, because they usually make you leave in the same month," she said.

Irish playwright Samuel Beckett was one of the defining cultural figures of the 20th century. Between Waiting for Godot, Endgame and his other plays and fictional works, let's face it: The guy is influential.
On Monday, April 3, we'll be presenting three of Beckett's plays—Cascando, Words and Music and But the Clouds—set to original music by Martin Pearlman and performed in conjunction with Nine Circles Chamber Theatre.
Beckett had a long and storied career setting up original radio plays for the BBC. The amazing avant-garde resource UbuWeb has an archive of Beckett's BBC Radio Plays—all of which can be downloaded as free MP3s. For a sneak peak of Monday night's event, the archive includes the originals of Cascando and Words and Music.

Tears are like Rain,
You never know when they
will fall.
I have taken a hit,
really mjore than one,
to the heart and soul.
I should be dead,
or a walking dead,
but instead i lived on,
but mearly on an edge.
Don't let my smile fool you.
If I take one more step,
id be gone for forever and more.
If you see me,
do not snear,
do not yell.
Please just not give me
a blow to my heart.

Multilingual Mobile Messenger: A new tool for disaster alert
"Giant waves coming, rush 1,000 meters away from the beach." These 10 words, if sent to mobile phones in the Bahasa, Malay, Sinhala, Tamil, and Telugu languages, might have saved thousands of people from the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004. But even if South Asia [...] authorities would have had little chance of distributing such a message, given the variety of languages and writing systems used in the region. Now, Geneva Software Technologies in Bangalore, India, has developed software that will translate English text messages into multiple languages and send a translation to any cellular phone or mobile device in the world.

Small sites boosted by search engines too
The suspicion that search engines exacerbate online inequalities, by directing more traffic to websites that are already popular, appears to be misplaced. Rather than simply boosting traffic to big sites, the research suggests search engines help smaller, less popular sites get noticed.

Bloggers drive inquiry into altered images
As of Tuesday afternoon, Adnan Hajj was the most-searched term on the Technorati Web site, which tracks what is being discussed in the blogosphere. And a rendering of his work was one of the most viewed videos on YouTube. Hajj, a Lebanese photographer based in the Middle East, may not be familiar to many newspaper readers. But thanks to the swift justice of the Internet, he has been charged, tried and convicted of improperly altering photographs he took for Reuters.

French Wi-fi bunny hopes to conquer America
In the Darwinian evolution of electronic companions, first came the speaking doll, then the Tamagotchi virtual pet, then Sony's short-lived AIBO dog. Now, it could be the dawn of the Wi-Fi rabbit era.
The plastic bunny[, named Nabaztag,] with ears like TV antennae can read out e-mails and mobile phone text messages, tell children to go to bed, alert one to a stock collapse and give traffic updates by receiving Internet feeds via a wireless Wi-Fi network.

Korean social-networking site hopes to nab U.S. fans
Cyworld, a site based in South Korea, kicked off a beta in the U.S. on July 27 and later this month will formally begin a nationwide tour to encourage Americans, particularly those in the age 18 to 29 demographic, to create personalized Web pages, or "mini-homes," on the site.
By contrast [to MySpace.com,] Cyworld attempts to facilitate communications between people who know one another: new parents who want a site where relatives can go to see the latest pictures of their baby; friends at different colleges who want to stay in touch. Overall, the demographic on the service skews slightly older.

I can't get enough of The Birth House, by Ami McKay. I read it every spare second I get (basically whenever L'il B is down for a sleep and everyone else is scattered about doing various things). I am aiming to finish it tonight or tomorrow, so I will make this brief... when I get into a book I can't let it go until I've devoured it.
Back to the pages, to save time I'll quote The Quill and Quire's synopsis
"...The Birth House follows the travails of an early 20th-century Scots Bay midwife, Dora, and her mystical Acadian mentor, Miss Babineau. As a profit-minded doctor discredits her trade and a drunken husband assaults her body, Dora struggles to provide sanctuary and self-determination for the women of her village. Vivid with accounts of childbirth and cures brought on by herbs, prayers, and folklore, the book also works in some of the era's more memorable events and phenomena. The First World War, the Halifax Explosion, the U.S. suffragette movement, the influenza epidemic, and even the craze for treating "hysteria" with vibrators are all seen through Dora's eyes..."
Love! Love! Love! If you liked The Red Tent (Anita Diamant) then you will love The Birth House.
Happy Christmas Eve to all of you in Australia! (It's still the 23rd where I am).

the banyan tree
The banyan tree is a fig tree whose seeds germinate in the cracks and crevices of a host tree or other structure.
Older banyan trees are characterized by their thick prop roots which grow vertically into thick woody trunks which, with age, looks main trunk. Old trees can spread out laterally using these prop roots to cover a wide area.
*Banyans are revered in a number of different countries for their spiritual nature.
*Buddha is believed to have achieved enlightenment in India while meditating under a banyan tree, known as the Bodhi Tree.
*The Banyan is the National tree of India.
*In Robinson Crusoe, Crusoe makes his home in a banyan tree.
*Banyan trees are scattered across the island in the TV Series Lost, the characters often using the thick roots as a hiding place from the island's monster.
*Paul Simon references the banyan in his 1990 song Spirit Voices, from the album The Rhythm of the Saints, singing, "We slept on the banks on the leaves of a banyan tree."
*There is a street where we are staying named after the tree because it is lined with Banyan after Banyan. The trees block out a lot of the light during the day making this tiny street more like a magical and enchanted forest.
*Most note-worthy of all, they are the best climbing trees in the world.

UPDATE: Wow; that didn't take long. No sooner had I posted this than the video I linked to was ripped down by YouTube for copyright violation. Sorry about that–I hope at least a few of you got to hear it!
In response to my last post about Brian Setzer's new CD, loyal reader Ivan pointed out that the first single has been released from the record. "Let's Shake" is a hard-rocking rollic delivered with traditional Setzer high-octane power. It sounds less like hardcore rockabilly than straight-ahead rock and roll, but it's still a fun tune, and it certainly signals that this record is not about the swing stylings of the Setzer Orchestra so much as a return to Setzer's rockin' roots. It's full of his inventive guitar licks, plenty of hard-stomping piano, and energy from beginning to end.
Enjoy "Let's Shake!"

Healthy Recipes
If you need ideas to help with lowering your cholesterol, your salt intake and reducing fat, then you will find many healthy recipes here to help you with that. All my recipes are made with heart health in mind as my number one priority. I look for ingredients that contain the lowest amounts of saturated and trans fats plus always look for low sodium products. You can feel comfortable knowing that I am cooking for good health benefits and my recipes all reflect that. One thing that is also very important is flavor so even though my recipes are healthy, I also strive for full flavor and lots of taste that everyone can enjoy. I will be adding many more healthy recipes as often as possible and working on providing lots of variety. So if you don't find something today that you may be looking for or that just catches your eye, come back often to see what's new!
This is a wonderful healthy stuffed chicken breast recipe with a hint of fall. The chicken breasts are filled with fresh chopped apples and fat free cheddar cheese then rolled and topped with a thick brown gravy that is just as healthy as the meal itself. I have also made a delicious shredded carrots, apple juice sauced side topped with sweet raisins.
