It's Monday and time for another tutorial. I have decided today to do some basics. I don't know how much you all know, most of you will know this, but I know there are some of you out there that have no idea, so today is for you.
I am also going to use different software, it is the software I started with. One of the good things about this software is that it is free, and you can just download it from the internet. It is called GIMP and it is available from here for windows. Someone asked me in my class if it was any good if it was free. Well yes it is good. The reason it is free is because it started on Linux and is part of a whole software development thing that they have going on. Developers all around the world work on it. There is a lot of free software for Linux, it is fantastic.
So back to GIMP, here is what it looks like when it is opened.
I have done this tutorial using Ubuntu, so my desktop is a little different, and the image in the background is the image on my desktop, not my image though.
Next you need to right click in the window where the image would be, then click on file, then open, and get your image from your computer. I have chosen this dark, crooked image that I took inside one of the buildings in the city.
One of the first things I would do would be to straighten the image. In GIMP, that means rotating the image until it seems straight. On the tool bar that is on the right of the image window you can see the rotate tool, I have circled it in red, click on it.
A rotate icon comes up on the cursor and you can click on the image and turn it, or you do it using the slider in the Rotate window, which is on the left of the image. Once you have the image where you want it to be, where you think it is straight, then click Rotate, I have circled it in red.
Now you will need to crop your image, you can see how the image seems crooked now. So back to the tool box, this time click on the crop tool, it looks like the pointy end of a craft knife, I have circled it in red.
Once you have clicked it, you go back to your image and click on one corner, inside where the image should be and keep it pressed and drag it to the diagonal corner. You get a rectangle or square, if it isn't quite how you want it cropped, in GIMP you click inside the squares in on of the corners and move it to where you want it. Once you have it where you want it you simply double click inside the window and it will crop the image for you.
There is the cropped image, it now looks straighter and is looking far better, except the image is quite dark, I would like to lighten it up a bit, so I am going to use levels for this. To get levels, right click on the image, go down to Colours, then over to Levels, click on it. It takes quite a while for the levels window to open.
If you look at the level window, there is a slider with what looks like a historgram over the top. There are 3 markers underneath it, the one on the left is for the blacks and makes the image darker. The one on the far right is for the whites and makes the image lighter. The one in the middle controls the shadows, and depends which way you move it. I tend to move the left and the right ones up to the bulk of the histogram area. See the next image.
You can see where I have moved them to, and hopefully you can see how much the image has lightened up from the previous one. This doesn't always work, if an image is too dark, or too light, then nothing is going to help it. Once you have the markers where you want them then you press OK.
My image is ready now, and I want to put this image on my blog, so I need to resize it. I don't like uploading massive images, you can see from the scale image window, that this image is really large. I tend to make my images for my blog around 800 pixels to 530 pixels, or there abouts. To resize your image, right click on your image, go down to Image, and then press Scale Image. You will get the Scale Image window that is in the image above.
Change the size, make sure it is for pixels, or millimetres, or however you change your images. I use pixels for my blog images, I change the largest size to 800 and then press enter, it then changes the other side automatically, you don't need to work that out yourself, thank goodness. Once done, press OK.
Your image will go very small in the window. To make it full size, as in how big the image is for real, press the number 1.
There it is, how big it actually is. The thing with pressing 1, it might only work in Ubuntu, so you might have to make the image large, using the magnifying glass for that. The image is just about all done now.
I have watermarked the image (last weeks tutorial), I have saved it and it is already to upload to my blog, and here it is.
The image has been given a quick edit, and really doesn't need anymore for this blog. I hope that helps many of you work out how to do some simple things with your images.
Most of the stuff I have done with GIMP, you can do with most other editing software. The set up is often different, but the names are usually much the same and the way they work is pretty much the same. If you have any problems, let me know. Good luck doing your images.

Charleston, W.Va. (AP) -- State and federal flags at state facilities will be lowered in honor of law enforcement officers killed or disabled in the line of duty.
Gov. Joe Manchin said Thursday he ordered the flags to fly at half-staff Friday in observance of National Peace Officers Memorial Day.
Several ceremonies are scheduled around the state Friday.
Police agencies from Monongalia County and state police officials will place a wreath at the Morgantown Public Safety Building at 10 a.m. The FBI has scheduled a 1:30 p.m. ceremony at its Criminal Justice Information Services Division complex in Clarksburg.

The Chicago Cubs will honor the late broadcaster
Harry Caray next month by rededicating his statue outside Wrigley
The team said Thursday that a pregame ceremony is also planned
for Sept. 1. Caray's wife, Dutchie Caray, and Cubs chairman Tom
Ricketts are expected to be at the rededication.
Caray's statue will be rededicated at Sheffield and Waveland
avenues. It previously was outside the field at Sheffield Avenue
and Addison Street, where a new statue of Cubs outfielder Billy
Williams will be placed.
Team officials say Dutchie Caray will throw a ceremonial first
pitch before the game against Pittsburgh. She'll wear a No. 23
Caray jersey.

Modern roller derby is more about athleticism than aggression on the track. / David Strong
What: Springfield Roller Girls Battle Broads vs. Joplin Mo-Kan Roller Girlz
When: 6 p.m. Saturday, but Community Blood Center of the Ozarks donations will begin at 3 p.m. and go until 6 p.m. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.
Where: Skateport, 3820 S. Glenstone Ave.
Cost: $8 in advance or $10 at the door. Kids 6 and under are free.
Info: http://springfieldrollergirls.com/events
This Saturday, some of Springfields toughest girls will take on Joplins best at the Springfield Roller Girls home bout at 6 p.m. at Skateport on South Glenstone Avenue.
It should be a pretty intense bout, says Chris Schwader (aka Bellatrix LePain), media head for the Springfield Roller Girls. In addition, the team will host the Community Blood Center of the Ozarks at the event and give free admission to those who donate blood on Saturday.
Skating to win
Though the Springfield Roller Girls were established in 2006 and have more than 30 members, many people dont realize roller derby is around, or that the Roller Girls have two teams: the All Stars, made up of seasoned roller derby veterans, and the Battle Broads, the B-level travel team whose members are less experienced.
Its very different than roller derby in the 70s, Schwader says. The bouts are still intense, though, and players wear full protective gear, including helmets, wrist guards, kneepads and mouth guards. Were very firm on rules that highlight safety, she says. There are a lot of penalties for things are deemed unsafe. Modern roller derby is more of an athletic event and less about pushing and shoving, she says.
Saturdays home bout features the Battle Broads going against the Joplin Mo-Kan Roller Girlz in the Battle Broads last bout of the season.
Amy Leary (aka Thugz & Kissez), the Battle Broads captain, expects an intense bout. Our fans can expect a lot of hard hits and fast-paced action. Weve been training for this bout for weeks, she says. These Mo-Kan Girlz are great, and we love playing them, but we are going to fight for the win.
The bouts, which consist of two 30-minute halves, usually draw about 300 to 400 spectators to Skateport. We try to make it as fun as possible, Schwader says. The team provides halftime entertainment, such as bands or jam skaters, and they aim to support a charity at every bout.
The Community Blood Center of the Ozarks will accept blood donations starting at 3 p.m., and those who donate will gain free entrance into Saturdays bout.
These girls are real athletes, Leary says. The game has grown into a fierce sport. Springfield Roller Girls games are family-friendly events that everyone will enjoy.
Calling all future roller derby queens
Though their season is winding down, the Springfield Roller Girls are looking toward the future, and theyve designated August as open recruitment month. We are looking for lots of girls who are interested in roller derby in general, Leary says. We can teach you everything you need to know about the game, including how to skate.
Schwader agrees that all levels of experience and skill are welcome. Its a sport where everyone can excel, she says. She encourages women (age 18 and older) of all shapes, sizes and ability levels to try out. Prospective members can learn anything, including the basics of roller derby and how to skate. As long as youre willing to work hard and learn it, anybody can do it, she says.
Practices are on Tuesday and Thursdays at Skateport from 7 to 9 p.m. Schwader says to simply bring athletic clothes and a water bottle. During training, prospective members will receive a free rental card for skates from Skateport, and full protective gear isnt needed during the August recruitment practices. Leary says the team is also looking for referees and volunteers.
For Leary, joining the Springfield Roller Girls really showed her what shes capable of. Roller derby has been one of the most pivotal moves of my life. Ive met so many different individuals and learned so much about myself as well.

Usher's Stepson Kyle Glover Taken Off Of Life Support – RIP
We regret to report that Usher's 11-year-old stepson Kyle Glover has been taken off of life support following the tragic jet-ski accident on July 7th at Georgia's Lake Lanier, which left him brain dead.
The decision was made after doctors determined that he would not recover from his injuries and his mother Tameka Foster has yet to come to terms with the decision, reports TMZ.
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources had identified Jeffrey S. Hubbard as the person who was riding the Jet Ski that struck Glover and a 15-year-old female friend.
The investigators have ruled out alcohol in the accident and authorities were waiting on Glover's medical outcome before filing any criminal charges. "It depends on the male's condition. With certain things we have to wait and see," explained Sgt. Burgamy. "Once we gather all our info, we'll talk to the District Attorney and discuss it with them to decide what action to take."
Our thoughts and prayers are with Tameka, Usher and their families during this difficult time.

Ship splits into three pieces off French coastComment on this story
Anglet -
Teams from a salvage company and a French coast guard anti-pollution squad will on Friday start pumping fuel out of a Spanish cargo ship which has broken into three sections after a spectacular shipwreck in bad weather.
The operation will be a race against time as it must be carried out in the two hours of low tide and before new storms forecast for the weekend hit France's Atlantic coast.
The 20-year-old Spanish vessel split in two when winds and waves smashed it up against an artificial breakwater near the French port of Bayonne on Wednesday. The crew of 11 were rescued by helicopter in perilous conditions. Later, one of the segments broke into two.
Fearing a fuel leak, French authorities launched an emergency plan to deal with maritime pollution. Twenty tons of fuel likely dispersed into the sea.
The coast guard teams, along with firefighters, salvage experts contracted by the ship's owner and the vessel's chief engineer plan to pump out the 60 to 70 tons of fuel found in the front part of the ship, which is washed up on a beach. The other two segments do not contain fuel tanks.
The operation will be "difficult", local mayor Jean Espilondo said, because the front end "is lying at a 15-degree angle under the force of the waves".
A probe has been opened into the accident. The crew members were being interviewed on Thursday and Friday.
A source close to the investigation said the ship had come empty from Spain to pick up a cargo of ball-bearings.
As it tried to enter Bayonne's port late on Tuesday, it suffered an electrical malfunction that left it drifting for a while. On Wednesday, with power restored and two tugboats helping, it tried again to enter port but a new blackout occurred, leaving it helpless in the water, at which point it struck the breakwater. - Sapa-AFP

Fall In Arizona Is Perfect Backyard Firepit Weather by Dream Retreats Landscape• Date Posted: November 4th, 2011 • Posted Under: Category, Landscaping, Outdoor
With the crisp chill of autumn upon us, an evening of sitting around a campfire might sound inviting. Open fires aren't allowed in most Arizona towns, but backyard firepits and patio fireplaces are.
Although a gas firepit or fireplace lacks the reality of a true fire, it can still put out a very convincing flame. However, a gas firepit or fireplace will heat consistently, unlike a wood-burning fire. Maintenance is minimal compared to all the work that goes into taking care of a wood-burning firepit or patio fireplace. The convenience of it is what makes it so appealing to many people. Anybody who enjoys the warmth and ambiance of flickering flames, but doesn't want the hassle of buying wood and cleaning ashes should consider a gas patio fireplace or backyard firepit.
The landscape designpossibilities are endless for incorporating fire into your backyard landscapeand outdoor living space. Instead of the metal bowl with last night's charred remains, imagine a custom, artistically crafted stone structure. By day, it is a stunning, creative backyard landscape feature. When lit at night, it surprises, pleases, and warms guests without masking intoxicating garden fragrances.

I don't really want humanity to go extinct next weekend, but the fact that we eventually will is not particularly troubling.
I mean, given that every single one of us as individuals becomes extinct, what's the big deal?
That the human species will go extinct is no big deal. That the human civilization will go extinct is a bit troubling. Although if we explore all that we could in the universe, there wouldn't be much point to us continuing anyway... One day we might even start repeating ourselves.
Besides, our past is there to be whether we're still there in the future. It is very unlikely that our perception of time matters outside of our universe, thus for an outside observer it is the same whether we stop existing after a certain point in time or a certain point in space – it is therefore our obligation to occupy as much of time and space as possible, but not care much about eternity.

Yves 'Jetman' Rossy waves to the crowd during a performance at EAA AirVenture 2013 Tuesday in Oshkosh. See more photos and a video of Rossy at thenorthwestern.com.
From 6,000 feet in the air, a man steps out of a helicopter and flies.
For those on the ground, he resembles a floating speck of dust or maybe a black bird camouflaged in a backdrop of thick clouds.
Thousands of spectators gasp. They can hardly believe he's doing this. Part Batman and part Iron Man, he's neither a bird nor a plane. He's the "Jetman." A pilot who has achieved what comic book writers have dreamed of for decades: free flying. ...

Yoram Roth Plus
User Stats
Profile Images
User Bio
Yoram Roth is a fine art photographer living and working in his hometown, Berlin Germany. Roth creates fine art images as well as photo book projects. His work uses the language and tools of commercial and fashion photography to play with story elements, and to engage the viewer in images that require a level of personal interpretation.
His work requires that sets are built, props are created, clothing is either made or pulled from various sources. The artist creates sketches and storyboards prior to image creation. Roth's work is narrative, and relies on substantial pre-production. These are not spontaneous snapshots, the images are planned and executed through a deliberate process. The results – large fine art prints as well as meticulous photo stories – are laden with details.
Yoram Roth considers the photobook as much a medium in its own right as large framed prints, and a number of his projects are specifically conceptualized as printed publications, including his most recent project "Hanjo" as well as the in-progress project "Struwwelpeter".

The New Reconstructed Mikkelsen Library
Within its existing superstructure, the $7 million renovation of Mikkelsen Library is now complete. The result is a learning, research and study destination that is highly functional and aesthetically inviting.
The project incorporates the latest technology in electronic information retrieval, along with enhanced library services and reconfigured study areas. The redesign promotes and accommodates the variety of ways in which students study, research and communicate. Additional enhancements include:
- a state-of-the-art video production and editing suite
- a striking, inviting fireplace seating area on the main floor
- the addition of 80,000 theological volumes from the Sioux Falls Seminary, as part of a new collaborative agreement
A $6 million lead gift propelled this project onto a construction fast-track. Work began in April 2008 and was completed by April 19, 2009, the day of its re-dedication. The donors, who wish to remain anonymous, made their gift "to honor the goodness and glory of God, and in gratitude for Augustana College and its journey to become a premier college of the church in America." A plaque with the inscription, "Soli Deo Gloria! To God Alone the Glory," greets visitors at the front entry.
Since 1954, the lights of Augustana's Mikkelsen Library have drawn in the campus and larger community. Whether light shining through the north bank of windows or the limestone statue of Moses symbolizing the light of knowledge, Mikkelsen is a welcoming place of scholarship and community, serving an integral role in the academic excellence of Augustana.
A number of unique naming opportunities still exist within the redesigned library. Development director Stephanie Larscheid is available to share these special opportunities with interested alumni and friends. Stephanie can be reached at 605.274.4323 or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

National Network of Libraries of Medicine
Pacific Northwest Region
Annual Report
May 1, 2005 - April 30, 2006
The mission of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine is to advance the progress of medicine and improve the public health by: 1) providing all U.S. health professionals with equal access to biomedical information; and, 2) improving the public's access to information to enable them to make informed decisions about their health. The Program is coordinated by the National Library of Medicine and carried out through a nationwide network of health science libraries and information centers.
Network goals are:
- To develop collaborations with NN/LM libraries to improve access to and sharing of biomedical information resources throughout the nation;
- To promote awareness of and access to biomedical information resources for health professionals and the public; and
- To develop, promote, and improve access to electronic health information resources by network member libraries, health professionals, and organizations providing health information to the public.
The Statement of Work focuses on:
Continuing to work with the libraries in
the network in establishing connections with health
professionals in rural and inner city locations who still
do not have adequate access to information;
Working with the NN/LM and other organizations to increase public awareness of and access to health information via the Internet, with particular focus on senior citizens, minority populations and persons of low socioeconomic status; and
Strengthening network capabilities through collaborations and by implementing national support centers in key areas of need, such as outreach evaluation, training and distance education.
This annual report covers the period May 2005 through April 2006, Year 5 of the NN/LM PNR 2001 - 2006 contract.
Highlights this year include:
- Initiated marketing strategies to increase awareness and profile of Network members as community resources for health information. Invited to partner with the Montana State Library year long "What's Your Story" campaign to help remind Montanans of the value of Montana libraries to the communities they serve. Campaign materials, including a PSA and poster, highlight Montana health libraries and resources of the NLM.
- Partnering with the U.S. Bone and Joint Decade and the Seattle Public Library, the PNR participated in a national launch of Fit to a T, the Bone and Joint Decade's educational program on bone health and osteoporosis.
- The PNR continued to reach public libraries via outreach, exhibiting and training. One example of impact: PNR staff worked with Kenai Community Library to strengthen and encourage consumer health service and outreach in the Kenai community. The Kenai Community Library was subsequently recognized as the Alaska State winner for the 2006 NCLIS consumer health awards.
- Funded a proposal by Southcentral Foundation to partner with the UW HSL in providing a research health informatics specialist intern experience for three members of the Alaska Native community. As a core component of the internship, the interns spent two weeks at the University of Washington for specialized training sessions about NLM resources, grants research and writing, and scientific literacy. The internship was designed to help foster and pursuit research interests of the Alaska Native community that SCF serves.
- Continued to encourage collaboration and outreach by libraries and community organizations. Funded project partnerships with participation by a diverse number of community-based organizations, such as Catholic and Child Service in Yakima; Alaska Health Fair in Fairbanks; Outside In, a social service agency which operates a medical/dental/alternative health clinic and provides day programs and transitional housing to homeless youth and low-income adults within the Portland Metropolitan Area; several community, health and social services in Royal City, Washington; and Street Youth Ministries and King County Health Authority in Seattle.
- Continued to support expansion of the Tribal Connections website portal and its mission to provide health care information to Native American and Alaska Native communities.
- Solicited and awarded 11 successful proposals from
network members, up to $10,000 each, to conduct
outreach to public health workers, primary healthcare
providers, consumers, or others without adequate health
information literacy skills or access to information
resources. Funded three awards of $2000 each for
outreach planning; four mini exhibit or training awards
of $500 each; and six additional electronic document
delivery projects in remote and rural areas.
A. Network Programs
1. Health Professional Access to Information
The PNR continued to facilitate increased health information service, access and training for the public health workforce. We offered a one-day workshop, "Collaborating with Public Health Professionals and Agencies in Your Area: A Special Training Opportunity." Nine librarians, at least one from each state in the region, attended and shared experiences and plans for projects and activities with the public health workforce. Workshop participants were selected based on commitment to provide followup training with public health personnel in their communities.
2. Assess Needs of Health Science
A web-based continuing education survey was sent to health sciences librarians in the PNR and PSR regions to assess their needs for learning and updating their work-related skills and knowledge.

5. Resource Libraries
We convened a full day meeting for Resource Libraries in the Pacific Northwest Region to discuss issues and concerns related to information service delivery and to explore approaches for developing a regional emergency preparedness plan.
6. Communication
The Dragonfly newsletter had 40 articles this year. Featured articles included:
- Oregon Librarians Are Certifiable!
- RX for Survival: PBS Series on Public Health
- My Dinner With a Prima Ballerina
- December 8 Slated for Public Health Training in Seattle
- What's Your Story? Find it at Montana Libraries
- Kenai Community Library wins NCLIS Award
- Free online personal health records for Montana Residents
89 NN/LM and NLM related announcements were distributed via PNRNews this year, a decrease from last year of 39%. Since the Dragonfly newsletter was converted to a timelier blog, we have utilized that format more extensively.
821 messages were sent to HLIB-NW, the regional e-mail list for health information community, the same number as last year.
The RML Marketing Committee worked with Jon Schindehette from the University of Washington Creative to plan promotional materials (including a poster and handout) for the Western Migrant Stream Annual Meeting in January, as well as for use with other Latino outreach that the PNR will be doing.
Invited to partner with the Montana State Library year long "What's Your Story" campaign to help remind Montanans of the value of Montana libraries to the communities they serve. Campaign materials, including a PSA and poster, highlight Montana health libraries and resources of the NLM.
7. Regional Advisory Committee
The PNR convened a Consumer Health Advisory Committee composed of a variety of professional backgrounds from all five states in the PNR.
Mary Ann Hansen, Electronic Information Coordinator at Montana State University-Bozeman, was selected to serve as an additional representative on the Regional Advisory Committee. She has accepted with enthusiasm.
8. Monitor Region's Programs
Gail Kouame met with representatives from Puget Sound Alliance for Community Technology and King County Housing Authority (KCHA) to discuss preliminary plans for them to work together to provide health information services in some of the KCHA facilities.
She also met with Ellen Howard from Harborview Medical Center and Yazmin Mehdi of Seattle Public Library to discuss how Seattle Public Library can serve Somali and Vietnamese communities with health information needs.
9. User Feedback
"On behalf of the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board I would like to thank Linda Milgrom for your presentation on MedlinePlus at January's Quarterly Board Meeting. We appreciate you taking the time to help deliver valuable information to delegated, staff, and community members." Peal Capoeman-Baller, Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board Chair, Portland, OR
"Just wanted to say "nice job" to Susan Barnes on the Docline tutorial -- you really put that Camtasia class to good use! I did a short tutorial for our Intranet page with no voice over and it took me a long time so I can appreciate how much work you put into this! Best regards, Buela (Boo) Horak, St. Joseph Hospital Library, Bellingham, WA
"Montana Health Network and its members want to thank you for the Express Award in the amount of $7045. The award will allow us to teach the healthcare workers employed by out network facilities how to access and share the wealth of information available through your many Internet resources. … we appreciate the feedback and assistance your organization provided to us in progressing through the application process. Our grant writer found your staff knowledgeable, helpful and truly a pleasure to work with." Janet Bastian, Chief Executive Officer, Montana Health Network, Miles City, MT
"We want to extend a heartfelt thank you for teaching three workshops on accessing health information on the web for local public health assessment coordinators in Washington State. The workshop content, especially the PubMed search strategies, was valuable and highly relevant to the work of this group … the workshop greatly contributed to knowledge and skill development in using public health literature -- a core competency for the public health workforce." Christine Spice, MPH, Community Assessment Liaison, Washington State Department of Health.
10. Training Facility
The PNR training room was used by UW Health Sciences Library Bioresearch Liaison Mark Minie for the NCBI class, Introduction to Molecular Biology Information Resources, June 13-15.
The PNR training room was used by NTCC trainers for PubMed and TOXNET training on October 24 and 25.
The PNR training facility was used April 3-5 for classes presented by the National Online Training Center and Clearinghouse (PubMed, TOXNET, and NLM Gateway/Clinical Trials.gov).
11. NLM User/Non-User Needs
Maryanne Blake did a follow-up survey to the "Measuring Your Impact: Using Evaluation to Demonstrate Value" class that she and Betsy Kelly (MCR) taught in Shrewsbury, MA in March 2005. We learned that 71% of the respondents in the six months since the class had not done a library stakeholder assessment, a SWOT analysis, a logic model for a library service or developed an evaluation plan for a library service -- all evaluation techniques taught in the class. The respondents did however use some tools to collect and analyze data, chiefly library statistics (93.3%), observation (46.7%), benchmarking (40%) and surveys (33.3%). Respondents also say they approached some groups in their institutions to see how "the library could contribute to solving their problems." The main groups were clinical staff (66.7%), their immediate supervisors (26.7%), and upper level administration (20%). While the sample was small (21 respondents) the number will grow as each class will be given a follow-up survey after six-months and the instructors see how the class can become more relevant to future attendees.
12. NLM Grants
Continued to consult with the Nez Perce Tribe on their IADL grant. Linda Milgrom helped Carm Bohnee plan PubMed and MedlinePlus training for tribal health staff and traveled to Lapwai to assist with the first sessions (July 26-27).
13. Follow-up with NLM-funded Projects
In support of an Express Outreach Project awarded to Public Health Seattle & King County, L. Milgrom gave an overview of PHPartners.org and other NLM resources to a group of public health professionals and representatives of community-based organizations in Tacoma on March 29.

Tops food hall
Cheap, clean, fast
What we say:
Tops supermarket's food hall at Chiang Mai's Huay Kaew mall has had a bit of a makeover recently and while you still might not go there for the ambiance or decor — think canteen-esque — it's a great spot to taste some cheap, varied and well-prepared local specialties. Here's what you can expect.
For those not au fait with the coupon system you see in many Thai food halls and markets, you purchase a bunch of coupons then wander around the numerous food and drink stalls, using said vouchers to pay for your selections. Any unused coupons will then be refunded once you've had your fill. We find 100 baht's worth of coupons will easily cover two dishes and a drink.
All the local classics are here: half a dozen different kinds of noodle soup including khao soi — and a very fine one it is too — plus chicken on rice, stewed pork, crispy pork, duck and fried noodle dishes, such as perennial favourite pad Thai. Expect to pay 30 to 50 baht for large helpings. Ready-prepared curry dishes and stir-fries are also arranged for you to choose from and go for 30 baht a dish with rice or two different choices on rice for 35 baht.
An advantage here with the prepared dishes is that the food hall is air-con as well as perhaps more hygienic than some of the alternative street and market spots, so you don't need to hesitate to try anything, even those prepared earlier. For regional offerings, you'll find both southern Thai and northeastern dishes available too.
Leave room to try a selection of the wide range of Thai desserts, and there's a very good coffee shop here selling the local brew as well. A couple of fruit juice stands whip up a variety of drinks too.
It's noisy, bright and usually crowded, so you might not want to linger here, but it's a good spot to pick up some lunch and even stock up on a few home comforts — cheese, chocolate, cookies — at the adjacent supermarket.
The food hall is located on the basement floor of the Central Huay Kaew shopping mall on Huay Kaew Road .

- Malcolm Butler The Hero In Patriots' Super Bowl Win Over Seahawks Butler's interception of a Russell Wilson pass with 20 seconds left Sunday sealed New England's fourth Super Bowl title — a heart-stopping 28-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
- Four Words That Defined Super Bowl XLIX The New England Patriots are Super Bowl Champions and one of the first words that comes to mind when describing this one is unbelievable.
- Three Pivotal Moments In The Patriots Run To The Super Bowl What once seemed like a fleeting dream, has become a reality, largely in part to these huge moments that set the New England Patriots on a course for Super Bowl glory.

Google: Our new search strategy is to compute answers, not links - GoogleGoogle's new strategy for search is to provide you with answers, not just links, said the company's executive charmain Eric Schmidt in an interview with Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher at the D9 conference today.
"We can literally compute the right answer," said Schmidt, referencing advances in artificial intelligence technology.
Instead of looking for links, he said, we're at a point in technology where many answers to search queries can be computed, rather than simply returning a list of links from an index.
I am curious to know how manipulative they are on the computed search queries, I guess a lot.
I can imagine how it works: All Adwords advertiser corporations are ranking on the top positions for Adwords links, brand links, store links, shopping result links, google map links and organic search. Where as a creative entrepreneur are you ranking? Page 2+ too bad for you, chances are that you are not going to make it because you are not a brand chain.
I think the day of banning google from my site is coming

Beware of Illegal Silicone Injections – They Can be Deadly
Posted in: Plastic Surgery in the News | October 29, 2011
This week a 30 year old woman was rushed into the hospital short of breath and coughing blood and almost died after being injected in her buttocks and other areas with liquid silicone at a house party. The silicone was not medical silicone found in implants, but instead liquid silicone similar to the type that one could purchase in hardware stores. A 22 year old woman who showed up at UCLA Medical Center from similar injections performed in Mexico died despite the physicians' best efforts. There are many other cases of similar deaths and complications from these procedures which are illegal.
Liquid silicone can be absorbed into the blood stream and travel to the lungs and brain causing "silicone embolism syndrome" which can be fatal. Death when it travels to the lungs is 20% and when it travels to the brain is almost 100%.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons cautions against these illicit procedures which may be on the rise because of patients' inability to afford licensed plastic surgeons. Patient's are advised to do their homework and make sure their physicians have the proper training and credentials.
I recommend that patients who wish to to have volume added to their face, buttocks, or other areas see a trained plastic surgeon for a consultation. Your surgeon will be able to discuss with you different options that are the standard of care for achieving your desired shape. When patients ask me about uncommon alternatives or cheaper options in foreign countries, I always remind them that for elective cosmetic surgery, safety and health come first. The rules and regulations here in the United States are to protect patients and are based on established standards of care. Doing something outside these standards is never work risking your health or your life.
Dr. Catherine Begovic M.D.

Continued from a comment I made myself under the Bewitched post:
Besides it is not just what you can *get* (with special powers), but what you can *do*.
Why limit yourself? I bet most pets are perfectly happy, but would you limit yourself to the life of a pet?
Many might say the human life holds all they would ever want, but isn't that just like the pet having finally convinced itself there is nothing for it outside that fence?

Letter from the Editor
Dear Reader,
I recall working for a search engine back in the early days of Internet search, before search was even an engine and was more like a giant index that people assembled manually by surfing around and checking out sites. I don't remember so much politics back then – not like now, where every extremest has a blog. Back then, you had to be at least a little bit of a techie even to have a website – or to even know about the web, for that matter. I remember running across lots of entrepreneurs with quirky, interesting products they seemed to have developed on their own. I emerged from that era with a new-found appreciation for how fuzzy the line is between what is patentable and what isn't. Along with these interesting, quirky products were some very abstract and conceptual "good ideas" or, in some cases, pretty ordinary ideas that someone out there was pretty sure he had invented.

i just have one question:
if you had a 5 gallon tank, what small bottom feeder could you put in it??
It would help to know what other fish are in the tank. Both from the perspective of compatibility and water quality.
One of the dwarf species of Corydoras would work. There are three, all included in our fish profiles with photos so you can find out about them. They need to be in a group of 6 which would work in a 5g given their 1-inch max size. These fish actually suit small tanks because they don't get "lost" as they do in larger tanks.
Shrimp is another possibility; I don't think guppies will eat them, but if someone who knows says different, no argument from me.
One of the small plecos is another option; there are some (few) species that max out around 3 inches, and one fish is fine. They are not active swimmers but are out and about grazing algae off plants, wood and rocks.
Guppies and shrimp are really a gamble together. Some guppies, in my experience, are totally docile while others will really harass inverts. If you want to experiment, you might try inexpensive ghost shrimp (they're sold as feeders) and see how the guppies react. Ghost shrimp are pretty cool critters anyway so you can certainly keep them, but if they're successful you can try some more expensive shrimp like Amano or cherry shrimp.

Ben Wolf's Other WorkJuxtapoz // Monday, 28 Feb 2011
Remember Ben Wolf from our Juxtapoz in Detroit Project? We thought to bring you a post dedicated solely to the sculptures and installations of Ben Wolf not created in Detroit. Wolf's work is extremely rich in content, style and scale. Wolf's Dormer House which he created in Detroit is only the tip of the iceberg.
Wolf explains his work "My sculptural practice is most often installation driven. To create for a specific space gives life to material and shape, color and space. I use various techniques from carpentry, welding, casting, to general assembly of chaos. Often times dragging in over-sized hordes from the depths of abandonment; adding, stacking, layering."

Bicycle SA has received a number of reports from riders of wire and other
dangerous objects, including bricks, being placed across the Coast & Vines
Rail Trail, between Marino and Willunga, south of Adelaide. These objects
have allegedly been deliberately placed across the trail in a way that
poses a serious threat to riders and other trail users. Reports of barbed
wire strung between posts have been received.
We have passed on the reports to the SA Police and the City of
Onkaparinga. the SA Police have responded by referring the matter to their
intelligence unit; and they will also get their Bike Patrol to check and
monitor the Coast & Vines Rail Trail. At this stage the City of
Onkaparinga has not confirmed their response, but we have been informed
they are considering having their Crime Prevention Team run surveillance
along the trail; and working with their maintenance department to monitor
the site.
Please contact the SA Police if you have any further information --
telephone 131 444.
