Are there Still any Dye Transfer Labs in operation and if so who and where are they?
Links would be appreciated.
Jim Browning seems to still make Dye transfers : http://www.dyetransfer.org/
In Germany there is Dye transfer international :http://www.dyetransfer.de/process.html
Charles Cramer still does Dye transfers: http://www.charlescramer.com/dyetransfer.html
CVI lab in NYC wasn't able to find a website their contact data is:
Cvi Lab Dye Transfer
(212) 226-3399
23 Prince St, New York, NY
I didn't know dye transfer is still around with Kodak not making the matrix film any more. They're sure beautiful.
Dyetransfer International (dyetransfer.de) makes their own Matrix film
Quote:"These matrix films are produced exclusively for our company following our own formulas", they also produce their own Baryta paper.
Wow that's great. I thought dye transfer died with Kodak discontinuation of matrix film.
Mordanted paper is made by Filmotec.
I would not want a dye transfer. Very expensive and they can fade like hell. Transfers are the Worst color imaging media I've tested for fading. Beautiful color, but dye stability is terrible. (They have good dark storage stability.) Inkjets are the best for overall image IQ and stability.
Cibachrome are the best for stability and will beat an inkjet, but have poor contrast adjustments. Ink jets are behind Ciba, but ahead of Fuji Crystal Archive for stability. Laser prints are above inkjet for stability and maybe(?) equal to Cibacrhome for stability, (but not sure about the last statement. i was never able to test this one area.) I think inkjets are better than Lasers for IQ, but I have not tested all options
OP...after you study up your DT options, let us know what is going on with them for costs.
Charlie Cramer sold off his dye equip quite awhile back, and now Ctein is throwing in the towel for good, but still has some leftovers for sale.
There are maybe a hundred people in the world still doing dye transfer printing, but only three commercially that I'm aware of, including Jim
Browining (mostly just prints his own works) and Egbert Haneke in Germany, who exposes the matrix film via laser. The redux materials have
been custom run a number of times. My own matrix film was made by Efke, and I mordant my own paper; but it would be nice just to buy the
paper. Some of the blanket comments above about the alleged longevity of certain media versus others are too generalized to warrant taking seriously. There are all kinds of variables relative to display and storage conditions, and in the case of media like either dye transfer or inkjet, the actual ingredients are not necessarily standardized. Many inkjet inks actually contain blends of color utilizing dyes which are closely related to certain dyes sometime used in dye transfer printing - they are "pigments" only in the sense of being "lakes" at best. The nonsense of the post above is also apparent because most laser prints are in fact directly onto Fuji CA paper, and exactly the same thing as I currently use in an enlarger. Ciba is close to extinction, but it doesn't do well under UV either - I've got more than my fair share of experience with Ciba. Nothing is forever - even the Sphinx of Egypt is a weathered mess compared to its original quality. But if any of you are interested in taking up dye transfer printing, it's still potentially one of the most beautiful forms of color printing ever invented, and can still be done if you are patient, innovative, and have a fair amount of time and budget, and above all, love darkroom work. I only have time at the present to
tinker with it off and on, but have learned that the complete process can still be done totally analog, in a well-equipped personal darkroom.
I printed Ciba for a while and it's a gorgeous print. Controlling the contrast was a big issue for me. The chemicals were pretty nasty and I was told if I didn't neutralize the chemicals, I'd wreck my pluming. The colors of Ciba seemed liquid to me. What is still approachable to me is RA4 processing. The paper and chemicals are cheap. Dye transfer printing is out of the question. I went to my friends art opening. He had nudes printed from Epson printers and they're beautiful also. I hate to admit that a digital inkjet print looked as good as RA print.

i'm not adjusting them yet...i probably will not adjust them until after the 2012 season depending on how many hrs i mow this year. i just like to be prepared ahead of time. i will not adjust them until 300hrs. at that time my mower will no longer be under warranty i dont' think. it's not really about that it's just i don't trust people. i mean when i bought the mower i had them adjust the air intake hose connected to the carb so it wouldn't vibrate against the metal piece on the back of the mower possibly causing a hole in the hose over time. i watched them adjust it before i bought the mower. they did fine but they forgot to tighten one of the bolts on the metal piece back down. (they had removed it to get at the bolt for the hose better) it's just little mistakes like that. who knows what little mistake they could make while working on the engine?
the reason i asked about where to get a feeler guage is because i've never bought one before. i've never used one either. i don't think we've ever had the valves adjusted on any engine we've ever owned and we've never had any problems. so who knows? anyways i'm remembering seeing a feeler guage before in my dad's garage. if i can find it i'll just use it. i may practice on my pushmower first since the valves on it have never been adjusted. most feeler guages go as small as .0015 like ridin' said. i figure i'll use .003 since it's right in the middle of the recommendations. i hope it doesn't have some sort of star bit or special type of bit to adjust them. i hate that kind of junk. they try to make everything where you can't work on it yourself nowdays or you have to buy some special tool. i hope it's like the honda engine in the video and i'm able to use two wrenches to do it. has anyone done theirs and know what you use on the kawi fx engines?

if it ant broke dont fix it. i would not ajust anything unless you are having a problem
just keep the oil changed and the motor clean and let it go
More than anything, pull the fan/cyl. shroud on a regular basis and clean around the heads especially around the valve guide casting/opening.
I would/do run straight 30wt oil also, as long as the temps don't get too low. I see yer in Alabama so low temps shouldnt be an issue.
Also, valve adj aren't covered under warranty. So if ya let the dealer do it yer gonna pay.
It ain't rocket science!
XXXXXXXXXX.....so far.

You can download an almost complete ( hey, it's free ) a shop manual here:
It should give you an idea of whats going on.
I like to use individual feeler blades, some feeler guages come apart , if not just snip it off with scissors.
It ain't rocket science!

" Old age ain't for sissies "
i worked on my pushmower valves today. the intake valve was perfect and didn't need any adjustment. the exhaust valve was a little loose so i set it right. when i tightened the nut back down i guess i tightened it too much and it stripped out the adjustment screw. ordered a new one. they cost about $2.00. those things are so fragile and weak it's pathetic. i'm sure the ones on the kawi mower engines are beefier. the adjusting part is simple it's just on that pushmower those screws are like toothpicks almost.
here's a page of valve clearances for honda engines:
the engine on my pushmower is the gcv 160
there's something i'm wondering. why do they make valves adjustable in the first place? why can't they just make something that keeps them in spec that way they never get loose? instead of an adjustable screw why not just make a metal rod the right length that's part of the rocker arm? that way they would never get out of spec and never need adjusting. i'm no engine expert or anything but just wondering why they make them adjustable when they are supposed to remain at one setting?

Old subject, but see that OP question was not answered.
Most engines have a 'compression release' lever built into the cam. When this wears out, you will get MAJOR kickback that will just about rip the pull handle out of your hand!
You have 3 options:
1-make sure you pull start it on the compression stroke.
2-make sure valves are set perfectly. (must be done with engine cold. This means sitting overnight.)
3-Replace the cam. (some manufacturers have a replaceable comp release lever. Others need to have whole cam replaced. Either way, the engine is coming apart.)
Grasscutter96....a sheared flywheel key or a cylinder full of gas from a leaking carb...will lengthen your arm also...I had a Honda 5.5hp on my logsplitter that would always kickback if you just yanked the rope...however..if you pulled up on the rope nice and easy..till you started to feel compression..and then yanked it...it never kicked back and always started on the first pull...sometimes its cheaper and less painful to just get along with your eqipment..
Jason...they do have engines that don't need valve adjustments..Kohler Commands...they have hydralic lifters...
Posted via Mobile Device
piston slapper: True that! I did base my answer on the assumption that the engine was in good working order, besides having hard kickback. & yes, the other 2 options you mentioned can cause it as well.
Almost all of the quality small engine manufactures recommend the valve adjustment at 300-350 hours, but it's really more of a valve inspection. In my experience, usually the valves are still within tolerance at this hour of use range.
I also believe the majority of folks don't even adjust or inspect at the recommended 300-350 hours.
Most likely, you'll just take the cover off and discover with the feeler gauge that it's within tolerance and put the cover back on. If it needs to be adjusted, then you can DIY or pay the dealer, but it cost nothing or any adjusting to close a valve and check with a gauge first.
Note: My experience is if in fact at the actual recommended hours and NOT just at anytime during the life of a small engine.

"Are you following him?" "Yea."
"Okay, we don't need you to do that."
[Hook: Nehemie x2]
You just took what it could've been
Who I was gonna be, right out from under me
And now, you telling the world it don't matter
If the roles were reversed then I'd matter
[Verse 1]
Look - no justice for a black male
This ain't a speculation song, I know the facts well
Pack jails with us even if we proven innocent
Then they wonder why we pack a strap and move militant
"Die nigga die" is what they mumble, it's like we live in a jungle
Cause I'm considered a monkey even if I'm bright and humble
This is Emmett Till speaking, Trayvon speaking
Careful if you packing Skittles, they consider that as reaching and they shoot you
And this the type of treatment that we used to
See a nigga, kill a nigga, police might recruit you
Wow - so foul I should probably get a tec
Get it? Get a Tec and maybe then I'll get respect
Need a check or just some type of reparations for these acclamations
You piss wrong, they wanna fry you like a pack of bacon
What you mistaking for a gun was just my cap and gown
But I won't get to use it cause you just shot me down
[Hook x2]
[Verse 2]
How many gotta die before we take a stand?
You had enough? Let's rally up, we gotta make a plan
Just understand if it was yo son
You'd be on the frontline with yo gun
Locked, loaded, not holding back until they show some
Respect for our people, know I fret for our people
If I could, I'd write a check and go in debt for our people
Need a sequel to the Civil Rights, Malcolm in my form of life
Martin right before the shots or Rodney right before the cops beat him
It's not freedom, Miranda Rights they never read us
They just white sheet us, kill our Black leaders
Need Jesus cause that "We Shall Overcome" is getting played
Ain't no "hear my freedom" song gon' bring yo son up out this grave
If you brave, take a stand, if you weak then take a seat
'Fore we end up on our backs, I'm tryna get us on our feet
Black fists high, never give up, brother you special
And careful with them Skittles, somebody might just arrest you
Talk to 'em

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- People traveling north on Interstate 75 during the next several days will have to find someplace to stop other than the Whitley County welcome center in southern Kentucky near the Tennessee line.
The welcome center is closing Tuesday until early next week to repair floor drains in the restrooms.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says the welcome center off ramps will be barricaded and closed to motorists.
Mobile message boards will be used to let travelers know about the closure.

Three dots, no com:
Dang, if two San Diego teams didn't get blanked in Hawaii: The Aztecs' men's basketball squad fell to Arizona in the Diamond Head Classic final and the Chargers didn't gather one Pro Bowl invitation.
While that stunning block by the Wildcats' Nick Johnson of Chase Tapley's game-winning layup wasn't a joke, the Pro Bowl is a gag that consistently falls short.
Unless you feel you're a deserving player and don't get named. Then it's time to cue Joni Mitchell: "You don't know what you've got till it's gone." …
The Chargers (6-9) and Raiders (4-11) share little common ground, other than being AFL originals, and at different times, calling Los Angeles home. But they eye their shoddy records entering today's season-finale, and scream, "Hail to the Chiefs!"
Of the teams' 10 triumphs, four have come at the expense of Kansas City. …
While UCLA was getting pummeled by Baylor in the Holiday Bowl, Bruins basketball icon Bill Walton was boxed-in more than UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley. Walton, San Diego's unofficial mayor, was swarmed by well-wishers. He posed for so many pictures and signed so many programs that he, and his wife, Lori, never reached their press-level suite.
Too bad, because a sweet pair of hands were waiting for the Walton gang: NFL legend Jerry Rice.
If wondering where Walton is spending New Year's Eve, turn in your tie-dye shirt. Walton will serve yet again as Father Time at the Furthur concert in San Francisco, building on his tradition of aiding the Grateful Dead's surviving members in their epic year-end show. Just before midnight, Walton will stroll across the stage carrying a scythe, hourglass and wide grin, before the band begins its third set. …
The University of San Diego names Dale Lindsey to direct its football program, and it says here that's a great move. If the players listen to the sage Lindsey, they'll learn what it takes to be, and act, like a pro. That Lindsey, the Chargers' linebackers coach during their 1994 Super Bowl season, will soon turn 70 isn't a factor.
What will be funny is watching SDSU coach Steve Fisher, at 67, call Lindsey, "Kid." …
I hollered a name not shouted lately on Thursday at the Q: "Hey Jeff!" That's Jeff Moorad, the die-hard UCLA fan and former Padres frontman who went undercover since ending his bid to purchase the local nine.
Moorad didn't win many friends in trying to succeed on the cheap, but I always enjoyed the Bearded Barrister's company. He's seen, and negotiated, from both sides of the baseball ledger, and few can say that.
But I chuckled later while spotting the Holiday Bowl's attendance of 55,507. Or, as the coy Moorad used to tease about the Padres' puny payroll, "It will start with a five."
That would always draw this response from my Padres-loving friend. "Then my ticket-buying budget will start with a zero!" …
Speaking of the Padres, the team's followers are puzzled why more wasn't done this offseason to upgrade a squad finishing 10 games under .500 and 18 games from first place.
The brass explains that the money the new owners were to spend was doled out last year in player extensions.
That does little to rev the masses, but at least General Manager Josh Byrnes is excited about the curtain rising on another season. That said, he knows the Padres can't repeat last year's disaster when the year was young.
"If you stink in April and May," he said over lunch, "it turns out it doesn't matter what you do after that."

Salma Hayek celebrated her Italian nuptials to Francois-henri Pinault by joining actor pals Charlize Theron and Woody Harrelson for a special collaboration with rocker Bono at her weekend (25Apr09) wedding reception.
The Frida star renewed her vows to French mogul Pinault in a star-studded event in Venice weeks after becoming husband and wife in a small ceremony in Paris, France on St. Valentine's Day (14Feb09).
Theron, Harrelson, Penelope Cruz, Ashley Judd, Antonio Banderas, and Hayek's ex-boyfriend Edward Norton were among the 150 guests who attended the event at Venice's La Fenice opera house on Saturday evening.
And the party turned into one big sing-a-long when the celebrities took hold of the microphone to belt out their favourite hits, reports People.com.
The bride sang Stand By Me with U2 frontman Bono, Harrelson, and Theron, while the Monster actress joined designer Stella MCCartney for a rendition of Don't Cry For Me Argentina. Hayek later came together with the pair to cover the Rolling Stones' hit (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction.
But Hayek wasn't the only one providing the entertainment - she and Pinault were treated to a Hawaiian-style version of Over the Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz by all their guests.

So here's a fun little problem I'm having: I multiboot with several other systems, and of course I've been using GRUB for a long time. Now, GRUB is able to boot OS X directly, which is nice, but it has it's limitations. Chameleon, the default bootloader for hackintoshes, is able to chainload GRUB, and GRUB is able to chainload chameleon, it's all very impressive, but one thing impresses me more about GRUB, namely that it is able to make the buttons on my trackpad work. In other words, when I chainload into chameleon and boot OS X 10.6.6, neither my keyboard nor my mouse buttons work at all!
What's even worse is that my trackpad reacts just fine to input, I can move my pointer around, but even that doesn't seem to interact with anything, the dock doesn't pop up when I hover over it. I've burned through several VoodooPS2 kexts and the Apple kexts, but the ones that worked all ceased to function when I booted through chameleon.
I would just continue to boot via GRUB, but I'm stuck at 800x600 resolution here, and I kinda want to be booting from chameleon before I take any more cracks at fixing that, just in case I have to work with DSDT files, which GRUB cannot load. Also GRUB forces verbose boot, and I want OS X largely because it's pretty, I get my verbosity fix from Arch linux.
Oh, and this is a Samsung N210, which has an intel N450 motherboard, trackpad vendor unknown.
PS2 works with GRUB, not chameleon

Yea, I have had the same issue with chameleon on both my MSI motherboards. However my keyboard kept working. I used another boot loader and it is working well.

ALBERT PIKE, Ark. (KTHV)--A year has passed since a flood took the lives of 20 people at the Albert Pike campgrounds in Montgomery County.
Saturday, victims' families gathered to remember and honor their loved ones.
Janice McRae owns the campground and was one of the organizers of the ceremony. She is happy to welcome the families back to her land, even though it is a sad anniversary.
"I had always thought it was a good place for families and I still think that but there's been times when I've actually been mad at the river if that makes any sense at all," says Janice McRae.
Tracy Farley with the Ouachita National Forest says the area is still closed to camping. "The area is closed. The day-use area is closed. The camping is closed. We're getting ready to look at the long-term use of Albert Pike."
Sheri Russell lost three cousins in the flood of 2010. She is from Arlington, TX and has been coming to camp at Albert Pike for many years. "People would say 'Well, aren't there places to camp in Texas? Yeah, but it's not Albert Pike! There's still no other place like Albert Pike."
The monument shows each victim's name and was made possible by donations from local businesses, area cabin-owners and strangers passing through the campground.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

We all had a good laugh when that pigeon was accidentally killed by a cricket ball. Maybe it should have been a warning. An umpire was killed yesterday after being struck by a thrown cricket ball in Wales.
Alcwyn Jenkins, 72, was hit in the side of the head in "one of the most freak accidents you could ever imagine," and collapsed immediately. He was airlifted to the hospital and died there.
Jenkins had umpired for the South Wales Cricket Association for 25 years, and was working a division one match in Swansea yesterday.
Eric Lewis, honorary treasurer of Llangennech Cricket Club and a member of the league management committee, said: "We were the fielding side and from what I understand they had been off for rain.
"They had only just gone back two or three minutes. Somebody had hit the ball and one of our boys threw it in as you do and Alcwyn was just in line and it hit him on the side of the head."
I don't know if you've ever held a cricket ball, but it's almost a third of a pound and hard as a rock. So it's less of a surprise that this happened than that it doesn't happen more often.
Fellow umpire Eddie Blake said Mr Jenkins was "devoted" to the sport.
The 59-year-old from Swansea said: "He was one of the oldest umpires and he was a smashing guy - a real character.
"He was very popular on the local cricket scene and welcome in all of the clubs. Everybody respected Alcwyn and it is a big, big loss, not just to cricket but also to his family and friends."

This was a good day trip from Mexico City and an opportunity to see many of Mexico's fine colonial churches. The lunch (included) was good and the guide (Ignacio of "Nacho") was excellent.
Doing what: Puebla and Cholula Day Trip from Mexico City
This was an excellent day trip and a wonderful way to see colonial Mexico outside of Mexico City. The guide, Francisco, did a great job. The lunch (not included) was very good and the restaurant had a fine view of the cathedral. During the free time, I had enough time to hire a taxi to take me up the hill to the Christ the Redeemer monument for an amazing view of Taxco and the cathedral. There was even enough time to look around town a little after coming back down the hill.

Excellent day trip. Tour guide was informative. Puebla is charming, picturesque, delightful. Highly recommend.

United Kingdom
Another lovely day trip thanks to the friendliness and expertise of our guide, Javier. We thoroughly enjoyed the visits to both towns - perhaps a little longer in Cuernavaca would have been preferable. We had a lovely lunch overlooking the town and had good fun exploring the silver shops in Taxco. Lots of friendly banter and a relaxed attitude made the day!
Doing what: Taxco and Cuernavaca from Mexico City
Our day trip to Iztaccihuatl was quite an experience that we have many storeys to tell. Our guide picked us up prompted at 6:20 am. We were to have a 12 hour day from 7 am to 7 pm. Along the way to the hike we were to stop for nourishment. This came from an Oxxo store. They had a selection of packaged sandwiches, that was it. Our driver kept on throttling the gas pedal on the highway making stomachs uneasy. I asked him to stop to no avail. Once we arrived to our destination we were told that the road was muddy and we could not go to the proper trailhead. We did appear to start on the proper trailhead as there was a sign stating so. Our guide took us along the well-used trail. At a branch we stayed along the trail that followed a fence to the right. As it was very foggy we could not see our ultimate destination. A few minutes later the trail ended and we were walking over ground shrubs and cactus. It was very windy, over 60 km per hour. After 45 minutes into the hike our guide advised that if anyone wanted to return to say so and we would all return. A few minutes later the guide asked again. My stomach was unsettled (partly from the drive) and some of us where getting a little cold due to the wind and cold temperature. So we started back. On the way back the clouds had cleared and we could now see our destination and other hikers there. If we had taken the other branch at the beginning of the trail we would have been on the right trail, on the protected side of the mountain and would have made our destination. We ended up returning by 2 pm. It appears that the guide's goal was to have us return as early as possible so that he would pocket the cash and have 1/2 a day to do something else. I did enjoy the hike however. I met some interesting people on the bus and learned about how one may be scammed while in the country.
Doing what: Iztaccihuatl Volcano Hiking Tour from Mexico City
Only three persons on this day trip. We were taken by car and our guide for the day, Jaime, was excellent. His English was very good and we got lots of information about the two towns.
The lunch in an old hotel in Pueblo was also very good. The tour was good value for money.
Doing what: Puebla and Cholula Day Trip from Mexico City
The trip to Puebla is an all day trip with a long time in the van. The Cathedral at Cholula was very special as was the archeological site. But he Teotithucan Pyramid site is much better and not so long to drive. The town of Puebla was OK and our guide told us about different things. And we had a few minutes to shop around the square. All in all, for me, the time in the van was not worth the sight seeing as better examples are in or closer to Mexico City.

Pretty good but no longer exceptionalPosted on 04 / 24 / 2015
I have been dreading this a bit (and putting it off), but the time's come where revising my review feels unavoidable. Things at Kushi Garden have gone down a bit in the last short while.
The menu has been revised (or more bluntly, reduced) for 2015, to just three items...curry, taco-rice, and a daily special. The daily specials in particular seem a bit more "basic" and bland now, with less creativity than before. The dessert choices have been severely scaled down as well, with generally just one, sometimes two items available. Fortunately, they do still have their great takeout sweets and cookies, and prices in general have stayed pretty much the same. Business hours are also (unfortunately?) unchanged...just lunch on weekdays.
One other thing I've noticed is a fair bit of staff rotation, which is probably related to all this.
And just to mention, Kushi Garden isn't particularly language-friendly for foreigners. The menu, blackboard, etc. are Japanese-only, and I have generally not noticed English speakers in the staff.
It pains me greatly to revise this review since I find this an example of the difficulties I've seen at vegan restaurants across Japan trying to succeed, and Kushi Garden in particular was so wonderful that this is extra difficult. In any case, the food is still good, and definitely recommendable, but just not as exceptional as before, and harder to recommend going out of your way for. One painful star less.
P.S. For fans of taco-rice, just note that there's no actual taco in the version here. Maybe a bit odd but it was still delicious so it never bothered me that much personally, but a friend was annoyed by this, so I just thought I'd point it out.

Defense remains the largest concern for Austin Peay and coach Carrie Daniels, especially after Monday's 98-77 win over Trevecca. Junior guard Kristen Stainback said the team at times played down to the level of its Division II opponent, and Daniels believes her team is capable of doing much better.

IRON MAN beauty GWYNETH PALTROW feared she was suffering a stroke when her head exploded in "searing pain", she says.
Gwynie was serving lunch to pals in her London abode when she suddenly felt stricken.
In her new cook book "It's All Good: Delicious, Easy Recipes That Will Make You Look Good and Feel Great", she writes, "One sunny afternoon in London, in the spring of 2011, I thought – without sounding overly dramatic – that I was going to die.
I had just served lunch in the garden at home… I had a vague feeling that I was going to faint, and I wasn't forming thoughts correctly… I got a searing pain in my head, I couldn't speak, and I felt as if I couldn't breathe. I thought I was having a stroke."
Docs discovered found Paltrow had suffered a migraine coupled with and a panic attack. She was also found to be "severely anemic" and "vitamin D deficient".
She was ordered to change her diet post-haste.
She cut out coffee, eggs, sugar, shellfish, potatoes, wheat and meat, and says she felt so much better that she culled her fave recipes to compile for publication.
Paltrow admitted the scare prompted her and her family to undergo food allergy testing. "
"Everyone in my house is intolerant of gluten, dairy, chickens' eggs, among many other surprising foods".

NEW DELHI May 13 India have no plans to pull out of next month's Champions Trophy over a rumbling controversy surrounding a former Indian player's election to an International Cricket Council (ICC) panel, the Indian cricket board said on Monday.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has been accused of using its clout to get former India spinner Laxman Sivaramakrishnan elected to the ICC Cricket Committee.
Sivaramakrishnan beat Australian Tim May in a second vote.
The ICC has cleared the BCCI but is considering referring the matter to its ethics officer after receiving a request from the Federation of International Cricketers' Associations (FICA), of which May is the chief executive.
Local media have speculated the Indian team might pull out of next month's Champions Trophy, to be staged in England and Wales, in protest but BCCI vice president Rajeev Shukla ruled out any such possibility.
"I think there is no substance in these rumours, India will be participating in the Champions Trophy," Shukla, also a union minister, told reporters.
"I discard all these rumours ... (India) will definitely be participating in Champions Trophy in UK," he said.
FICA officials have claimed several ICC boards pressured their captains to change their vote in Sivaramakrishnan's favour during the re-poll.
None of the BCCI officials Reuters contacted were prepared to comment on the allegations.
The ICC issued a statement on Thursday, criticising "unsupported allegations of impropriety in the voting process."
"...in view of the allegations already appearing in the media, the ICC wishes to state for the record that the re-vote took place according to the determined procedure and that the ICC has seen no evidence that supports allegations now being made that captains were put under pressure by their Member Boards to vote for a particular individual."
A sub-committee of its chief executives committee, the ICC Cricket Committee discusses cricket playing matters and makes recommendations to the CEC. (Editing by Justin Palmer)

There are about 100 different types of arthritis. In general, arthritis means problems with the joints. A joint is a place in the body where two bones meet. Arthritis may also affect other body tissue near the joints including muscles, tendons, and ligaments. And, in some forms of arthritis, the whole body is involved.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is sometimes called degenerative joint disease or wear-and-tear arthritis. It's the most common type of arthritis. In OA, the cartilage wears away. Cartilage covers the ends of bones and acts as a cushion. If enough cartilage wears away, bone rubs against bone. The joint changes in OA cause pain, stiffness, and difficulty movement.
The joint help the bones move easily. Cartilage is smooth tissue that cushions the ends of bones, letting them slide against each other. The synovial membrane surrounds the joint. It makes a fluid that lubricates the joint.
Through long use or injury, or because of a family tendency, the cartilage can become rough and damaged. It starts to wear unevenly. The ends of the bones then rub together, causing stiffness, pain, and sometimes swelling. Bony spurs may grow, enlarging the joint. The muscles around the joint may weaken

WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney's presidential campaign Friday rejected a new call from the Obama campaign to release five years of tax returns.
In a letter Friday to Romney campaign manager Matt Rhoades, Obama re-election campaign manager Jim Messina pledged that if Romney released five years of tax returns filed from 2007 to 2012, the Obama campaign in turn would stop criticizing the Republican candidate about them.
Rhoades promptly rejected the offer, saying if Romney's tax returns "are the core message of your campaign," Obama will have ample time to discuss them between now and Election Day. The rival campaigns distributed the letter and Rhoades' e-mail reply to reporters.
The letter followed Romney's comment Thursday that he had paid at least 13 percent in each of the past 10 years. Washington Post

Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman (original 2009; edition 2010)
by Jon Krakauer
Work details
Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman by Jon Krakauer (2009)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Yes, "Where Men Win Glory" has the typical flaws of any Krakauer novel, including bias and sensationalism. Corporal Pat Tillman was adamant upon enlisting in allowing the media and political machine to exploit his decision to join the military, so there remains the nagging sense that this book disservices the spirit of Tillman himself.
So yes, there are problems, but I freely admit that is the first non-fiction text to render me to tears of frustration, genuine sadness and disillusionment. Given the systemic institutional cover-up of Tillman's death, from the White House to the Pentagon and CENTCOM, perhaps Krakauer's bias is a necessary device. Through both the government's and Krakauer's accounts, the reader is tasked with ascertaining the truth of the tragedy, and free to do so on their own terms, which I believe to be critical.
Further, Krakauer's narrative is beyond compelling, which makes the historical context and abstract politics of Afghanistan, Pakistan and FATA concrete and navigable to the lay reader. Which is not to say that Tillman's legacy, in and of itself, it is not a compelling read, but together, Tillman's experiences and the historical backdrop provides a "perfect storm" of information for the reader.
Excellent book, excellent narrator... intricate story. Hard to grasp occasionally but Krakauer did an excellent job explaining some of the inexplicable events in Pat Tillman's military experience.
We will never really know why Pat Tillman resigned from the NFL and joined the military, only to be killed by so-called friendly fire. Krakauer at least clearly describes the on-the-ground events and confusion that lead to Tillman's death. Krakauer does not do so well in assigning blame, if blame is to be assigned. War is always messy. Politicians are always lying. The military is always trying to save face. The middle east seems hopeless. And young men don't always make good decisions.
A tough book to get through. Certainly paints a negative picture of the culture of the Army and of our government, that something like this could not only happen but then be manipulated to try and make politicians look good. It was a hard book to get through.
A tough book to get through. Certainly paints a negative picture of the culture of the Army and of our government, that something like this could not only happen but then be manipulated to try and make politicians look good. It was a hard book to get through.
Mr. Krakauer cobbled together his book in a spirit of desperation. Though he set out in search of Mr. Tillman's whole story, he didn't find what he was looking for.
There is a master's hand evident in this particular depiction of events in a life that will end too soon, meticulously built of pieces carefully chiseled from recent international history, political intrigue, first-hand reporting, thoughtful reading, and a feel for what is most human. The author, like his subject, purposefully strides out on his great battlefield too.
Those who have spent time in the military and have seen it struggle not just with war but with everyday barracks life tend to err on the side of incompetence, while those who never have -- such as Krakauer -- tend to suspect conspiracy.
The best-selling author Jon Krakauer has now told the full story in "Where Men Win Glory." The combination of Krakauer and Tillman seems hard to resist: Krakauer is a masterly writer and reporter; "Into Thin Air," his account of a disastrous climbing expedition on Mount Everest, is as riveting and harrowing a book as I've ever read. With Tillman, you would think he'd have all he needed to fashion an epic narrative. Unfortunately, he fails to pull it off.
Krakauer -- whose forensic studies of the Emersonian Man in books such as "Into Thin Air" and 'Into the Wild" yield so much insight -- has turned in a beautiful bit of reporting, documenting Tillman's life with journals and interviews with those close to him.

No descriptions found.
Irrepressible individualist and iconoclast Pat Tillman walked away from his $3.6 million NFL contract in May 2002 to enlist in the United States Army. Deeply troubled by 9/11, he felt a strong moral obligation to join the fight against al-Qaeda and the Taliban. Two years later, he died on a desolate hillside in Afghanistan. Though obvious to most on the scene that a ranger in Tillman's own platoon had fired the fatal shots, the Army aggressively maneuvered to keep this information from Tillman's family and the American public for five weeks following his death, while President Bush repeatedly invoked Tillman's name to promote his administration's foreign policy. Biographer Krakauer draws on his journals and letters, interviews with his wife and friends, conversations with the soldiers who served alongside him, and extensive research in Afghanistan to render this driven, complex, and uncommonly compelling figure as well as the definitive account of the events and actions that led to his death.--From publisher description.… (more)

Taxpayers subsidizing 'listener-supported' radio
Despite $135 million in additional state debt that was provided to Salisbury University to pay for a new library, courtesy of Delegate Norm Conway and the Democrats, the school could find no more room for its public radio station on campus.
The Daily Times provided a platform for this supposedly listener-supported station to launch its fundraising drives and awareness, summoning all liberals and progressives to come to the aid of one of their own (although many conservatives enjoy classical music, the vast array of programming does not just lean left, it falls over).
With all of this attention, I thought surely those folks would rise to the occasion - or the school would throw them a bone from that $135 million (that's $49 million for planning and design, plus $51 million for bricks and mortar this year alone).
Boy, was I surprised on the last Saturday of the 2013 legislative session when I looked through a supplemental budget debt appropriation and found it included an amendment to provide Delmarva Public Radio $900,000 to cover relocation, equipment and whatever else is deemed appropriate.
Not a bad day's work for a station that claims an annual operating budget of $1 million.
It seems the station has an ardent supporter in Conway, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. Why let a little thing like public input stand between friends?
To say I am appalled at this reckless disregard for public spending is putting it mildly.
There are other listener-supported radio stations in our state. The vast majority of them are Christian stations, such as WOLC-102.5 FM in Princess Anne.
They all conduct annual "share-a-thons," which often cover a number of days whereby they receive pledges and donations upon which they base their budgets. I wonder what they could do with a million bucks.
Our airways are full of commercial radio stations all competing for those precious advertising dollars that tend to go toward those with the greater listenership and programming.
Like every other business, they have had a tough go of it in this Maryland economy. I'm sure a cool million would quench a few thirsts from where they sit.
At a time when our local governments are struggling and many needs cannot be met, it's no wonder this little million-dollar gem tried to slip in unannounced through the back door. We must expect better from our leaders.
Marylanders, take back your state.
Mike McDermott represents District 38B in the Maryland House of Delegates.
Academic Commons is more than a library
On behalf of Salisbury University, I would like to clarify some confusion regarding our Academic Commons and Delmarva Public Radio projects. Both have significant value and importance, not only for the campus but for the surrounding community.
First, the total state allocation for our Academic Commons is $107 million. This year we received $6.5 million for planning and construction. A significant gift from a private donor who is also supporting the project will soon be announced.
By all national standards, Blackwell Library, built in 1957, is woefully inadequate for a campus SU's size. As the name Academic Commons implies, however, this building will be more than a library. It will provide sorely needed classroom, study, lecture, meeting and lab spaces, special programs serving students, and a new home for our Nabb Research Center for Delmarva History and Culture. This facility will not only include library space, but truly will be the hub of education on campus.
The Academic Commons also is an economic opportunity for the Lower Shore. In an area traditionally underfunded with regard to state investment, this project helps to give the Eastern Shore its fair share.
We appreciate the state's investment, as Salisbury University is one of the highest performing institutions in the University System of Maryland, while receiving some of the lowest total state support per student.
The Academic Commons project also will produce a number of much-needed jobs.
With regard to Delmarva Public Radio, because the university will be taking over its licenses, the two stations will expand educational opportunities for our communication, business and music students.
The capital investment will be used to update the equipment from analog to digital, and provide space and antennas. This investment in DPR is an investment in the students of SU, who will be direct beneficiaries of first-hand experience working with the stations.
SU is a designated growth institution for the university system. Projects like these are integral to its advancement as a "Maryland University of National Distinction."
Again, we appreciate the hard work of our elected officials and their support of the state's investment in Salisbury University and the economy of the Eastern Shore.
Robby Sheehan is director of government relations at Salisbury University.
Why are gas prices are higher in Ocean City
On April 11, I drove from Ocean City to Salisbury for a social event. When I left Ocean City, the price of gas was about $3.48. In about half an hour, I arrived in Salisbury, where I found the price of gas at many locations to be $3.37.
Can anyone tell me why the price of gas is about 11 cents a gallon more in Ocean City than it is in Salisbury?
I remember that Ocean City's late Mayor Harry Kelley, when gas prices were high, threatened to have Ocean City start to sell gas to its many visitors if the price of gas in Ocean City was not reduced.
Support for Diakonia funding is appreciated
We are pleased that the General Assembly chose during its recently completed session to provide $350,000 in capital funding to Diakonia for its planned expansion.
Delegate Norm Conway, who has been a quiet supporter of Diakonia for many years, sponsored the legislation in the House of Delegates. His continued support during the session did much to ensure its success. We truly appreciate his efforts and continued support.
Sen. Jim Mathias sponsored the bill in the Senate. His testimony was invaluable. Mathias has been a consistent supporter of Diakonia, and he spoke movingly of his support at our 40th anniversary event last year.
Delegate Mike McDermott co-sponsored the bill in the House, ensuring that we had the entire Worcester delegation behind us. We greatly value his support.
Diakonia has served people in need in Worcester County and across the Lower Shore for more than 40 years. In the last 12 months, we provided more than 12,000 bed-nights of shelter, distributed about 18,000 bags of food through our food pantry and provided about 57,000 meals to our guests.
Our homelessness prevention program has kept hundreds of families from becoming homeless.
Our new facility, which is in the early stages of planning, will allow us to serve many more through modern supportive housing which provides permanent housing and ongoing support services.
Wilson is president of the Board of Directors of Diakonia Inc. - Editor

Fast paced, dramatic and visually impressive.
One of the best action oriented first person shooters I have ever played. The entertainment you have in highest difficulty setting with all the tactical possibilites, the large area and your nanosuit are unmatched. I recommend it! Only 9 out of 10 because in my opinion the vehicule parts where annoying.

Shorter but almosts good as the original game.
A great Scifi FPS.
Gameplay is fun.
A variety of weapons.
Alot of action.
But it also has the same little problems that the original had.
A satisfying game.

I just love great add-ons for great games. Definitely worth playing right after the proper game itself.
Aug 6th, 2012 0 people agree 0 people don't
Shortened and made more linear, Warhead's success lies in the slightly improved multiplayer with an automatic mod downloader. It's still a satisfying campaign at least, but it's obvious that it went downhill, only to take a complete nose dive in Crysis 2.

LGBTQ Youth: Take GLSEN's 2013 National School Climate Survey
The 2013 National School Climate Survey is GLSEN's eighth national survey of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth. It is a crucial tool in GLSEN's mission for fighting anti-LGBT bias in K-12 schools across the nation. The information gathered from this survey will help GLSEN to inform education policymakers and the public about the right of all students to be treated with respect in their schools. Many students in the past have also used the survey information to advocate with their teachers and principals for safer schools for LGBT students.

This week has been quite busy with Cisco Live in Las Vegas, Nevada that saw well over 12,000 customers, partners and analysts in attendance and included the announcement of the Cisco Cius mobile collaboration business tablet.
Prior to my recent vacation, I had the opportunity to participate as Technical Committee Co-Chair at the 6th International Conference on IP+Optical Network at the NTT Musashino R&D Center in Tokyo, Japan, June 10-11 2010.
As we deliver real time applications such as gaming and ramp up to deliver HDTV and three-dimensional videos, the network infrastructure is pivotal table stakes.
Some key points and questions to ponder moving forward:
- Race between application requirements and technical capabilities
(remember evolution of PC capabilities?)
- Bitrate increase usually justified video streaming applications
(some SDTV and one HDTV stream per household + VoIP + Internet)
- Do we really anticipate future bandwidth requirements?
- video download rather than streaming
- video e-mail
- joint video editing
- Consumer telepresence (concurrent voice, video, application sharing)
- 3D video
It is about video!

For the adults: Studies are limited and inconsistent. One research does suggest that adults laugh an average of 17.5 times per day (Martin RA, Kuiper NA. Daily occurrence of laughter: Relationships with age, gender, and Type A personality. Humor: International Journal Of Humor Research 1999; 12 (4): 355-84.)
Both adults and children laugh primarily during social interactions with others. Consequently, the frequency of laughter at any age depends on how much time an individual spends interacting with others.
How rumors spread: true origins of a false scientific quote
It appears to have all started with Dr Michael Titze, a German Psychotherapist and pioneer in the world of therapeutic humor. Here is what Dr Titze himself had to say about this misquote:
In 1998 on the occasion of an international congresses dealing with therapeutic humor in which participated, among others, William Fry and Patch Adams, someone said that children laugh 400 times a day and adults only 17 times.
Because I was moderating this panel, journalists implied that I was the origin of this statistical statement (not at all true).
This was not the first time I was the origin of an incorrect "scientific fact."
In 1983 Josef Scheppach wrote a fine article dealing with the phenomenon of laughter in which he included the following made up statement that only served to illustrate his topic: "It's really not ridiculous: we Germans lose our humor! We laugh only 6 minutes a day. 40 years ago it was what, 18 minutes? And that was in a time which was in every respect less funny!" That article was published in P.M. a (popular) scientific magazine of the time.
2 years later, I mentioned this statement of Scheppach in a short sentence in a book dealing with humor in psychotherapy. In the following years a countless number of journalists cited my quotation of Scheppach's statement as if it was a scientifically validated research. Eventually, even the London Times published it!
