"ON A HOT SUMMER DAY, theres only one thing better than riding a bicycle along the edge of a scenic river, and thats paddling down the river in a canoe. For years, these two activities were thought to be mutually exclusive. The logistics of shuttling a canoe to point A and then retrieving it from point B are difficult enough. One doesnt need the added headache of trying to squeeze a couple bikes on top of the paddles, lifejackets and bailing buckets in an already overstuffed station wagon.
But in the summer of 2003, Gary Pluim set out to bring the worlds of cycling and canoeing together. His plan was to use a tandem bicycle to tow a canoe on a small two-wheeled trailer from downtown Calgary to the glacier that feeds into Calgarys water supply. Below the glacier, at Bow Lake, the bike and trailer would be stowed away in the canoe and the boat would be paddled back to Calgary along the Bow River." .............. http://www.outpostmagazine.com/content.php/1.7/34/1.php

The two faces of Linux
While Linux continues to make inroads among corporate accounts, it is also is taking on one of the burdens typically assumed by archrival Microsoft, as it becomes a more attractive target for hackers.
New services-oriented offerings on tap from Guardian Digital and MSSP (managed security services provider) Guardent are looking to remedy open-source and Linux security liability.
At LinuxWorld Conference & Expo in New York later this month, Guardian Digital will release new products to accompany its Web-based EnGarde Secure Linux Professional tool, which offers DNS, Web, and mail services support.
Set to make its debut is Guardian Digital Secure Mail Suite featuring anti-virus and spam protection, Web mail, secure remote access, and integrated centralized directory access using LDAP, said Dave Wreski, CEO of Guardian Digital, based in Allandale, N.J. Guardian Digital also will reveal its Content and Policy Enforcement Center at the event.

A note on solutions of the Schrödinger equation

Abstract: Using a suitable geometric series a simple proof for the continuity of -solutions of the Schrödinger equation ( being a Kato function) is obtained. It works as well for uniformly elliptic operators having Hölder continuous coefficients and Kato measures instead of Kato functions. Moreover, it is shown that results on singularities are immediate consequences of the local existence of continuous Green functions for .

Are you looking for a personal offshore bank account. Maybe you are looking for a corporate offshore bank account. Generally speaking, any bank account opened outside of one's native country can be considered an offshore bank account. The appeal of an offshore bank account is much more apparent during tax time, when assets and income must be reported to the IRS or other government revenue agencies abroad. This is why some companies and wealthier individuals prefer to open an offshore bank account in small sovereign states which allow account holders to remain virtually anonymous. For many years, an offshore bank account was indeed a convenient way to hide profits from illegal activities or underreported business earnings. Many people consider opening an offshore bank account for very legitimate financial reasons.

The falling leaves drift by his window: Fiorito
Autumn is the time of change; oh, around here it is fervently to be hoped.
Share via Email
This year we put four big hibiscus plants in pots; a while back, when the pink and yellow blossoms were at their peak, some kid tore one of the plants out and wandered off with it.
Thief of beauty.
The vine on my neighbour's fence across the way no longer looks like it crept off a Group of Seven landscape.
Now it just looks dead.
The chestnut trees were swept clean of their leaves on a recent cold and windy day, when the mood of the city was also cold.
I hate pathetic fallacy.
You know what that is: a cheap trick used by a poor writer who has a sad character, and the next thing you know the rain is falling, as if nature was a personification of us.
And yet, and yet.
On the street the other day I noticed an old lady bundled up against the cold, sitting on a concrete bench, selling her poor stuff: old shoes, tired purses, mismatched dishes.
She also had a large embroidered picture of Our Lady of Someplace, and a lovely thing it was, blue and white, handmade, in a kitschy frame.
The old lady gestured to her wares and asked if I wanted to buy, and I said I had everything I needed at home. And then I stopped.
At home I have a Sacred Heart of You Know Who. I have a microscopic shred of a garment once worn by Brother André. I have a medallion with the face of Catherine of Siena.
But I do not have an embroidered portrait of Our Lady of Someplace, and my fondness for the old imagery dies hard. So I asked.
"Did you make this?"
"You want to buy?"
"I can't today. I can't take it with me where I'm going. But it's beautiful. Who is it? Our Lady of Where?"
She said, "Don't speak English."
I don't speak Polish, and I don't know why that was funny, but we both laughed.
And I continued with hand gestures, as if I were doing needlepoint or embroidery or crochet. I can never tell those things apart.
"You made this?"
"You still make?"
"Hands?" I could see that hers were bent and curled, but she said no, and she pointed to her glasses.
Mine, too.
I told the old lady that I couldn't take her icon with me, and that was true at the time, and I wished her well and went on my way.
The next day I heard some young person on the radio news introduce a story about assisted suicide by saying, "As baby boomers prepare to die . . ."
I am not preparing to die.
I, like the others in my cohort, wake up every morning intent on sending support to our aging parents and to our wayward children; we pursue our friendships; we put on gloves and prepare our gardens for the long winter.
Pathetic fallacy?
I hate pathos, and we have had enough of that around here. I hate fallacy, and we have had enough of that, as well.
And now the last leaves are falling, and eventually they will be swept away, and the rain will wash them into the gutter, and you know now that I am not talking about the leaves.
The mayor, at the end of his bizarre and maudlin confession the other day, called on God to bless the people of this city, as if he were some two-bit American politician, and religiosity was mandatory at the podium.
Oh, partly right; he is a two-bit pol, and a 10-ton liar to boot. And now I am off to see if that woman with the icon is still around.
Our Lady of Toronto, pray for us.
Joe Fiorito appears Monday, Wednesday and Friday. firstname.lastname@example.com

Midwest Tomato Fest: It was joyous, albeit stinky
A sea of red at Tomato Fest

Massive tomato fight invades downtown Minneapolis Saturday
The Midwest Tomato Fest [SLIDESHOW]
Last Saturday, thousands swarmed a parking lot on Portland Avenue in downtown Minneapolis with one mission: To throw tomatoes at each other at the second-annual Midwest Tomato Fest. Stinky, overripe, inedible tomatoes donated by farmers from Arkansas coated participants' bodies, and made their clothes reek of rotten food.
The fight, inspired by an event in Spain called La Tomatina, was founded by a few St. Thomas dudes. It began after an afternoon of booze-soaked dancing to Top 40 jams. Beloved local food trucks like World Street Kitchen served up eats that would prepare these scantily clad bodies for war.
I was there, among the Midwest Tomato Fest thousands. With the gonzo journalism of Hunter S. Thompson and David Foster Wallace in my heart, I launched myself into the saucy, chunky fray.
Patrick Stephenson pre-battle
The first step when preparing for a tomato fight is to find clothes you don't mind destroying. I chose a so-so-quality tank top from Target, a pair of H&M shorts with a busted top button, and my tennis shoes. Step two is to find safety goggles and put them on, tightly. Your face will get smashed during the fight, so you don't want your precious peepers feeling the brunt of a tomato's impact. Step three is to pack a waterproof fanny pack with your valuables -- phone, wallet, watch, keys -- as all of these must be protected. Finally, prepare yourself to get hit (though it doesn't hurt too bad). Now, wade into the tomatoes. Stretch your arms out. Be fearless. It's a battlefield you're entering, and you have work to do.
I pedaled up to Tomato Fest at 5:30 p.m., as the rhymes of Kanye West and Jay-Z echoed off Mill City's condo canyons. Inebriated people in various states of undress gyrated to the music. With LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It" blasting around me, I explored the crowd. Girls in bikinis dry-humped each other. Shirtless guys in sunglasses pumped their fists into the air. "Party With Sluts" read someone's T-shirt. "I should've taken a shot or three of whiskey before this," I tweeted. The scene was a tad too primal and frathouse for this introvert to handle sober and alone. Regardless, I shielded my eyes from the sun, and stood in their midst while, fenced off and guarded, a few billion tomatoes awaited nearby. An elephant in the room, summoning us to battle.
Photo by Taylor Paino
Before you start worrying about food waste, you should know that the Midwest Tomato Fest has a social conscience. All tomatoes are farmer-donated garbage produce that, if they weren't being used as weapons, would end up in a landfill. "[We use] only overripe and spoiled fruit," say event organizers on their website, "so we don't waste any tomatoes that might otherwise be on our bruschetta." In addition, the party benefits organizations dedicated to ending hunger. This year's beneficiary was Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless, a group that, according to its website, "helps food and shelter providers fill needs that would otherwise go unmet."
At 6 p.m., everyone turned from the Tomato Fest's rockin' stage. I joined the revelers as they pushed toward the tomatoes and laughed with them as hoses wet us before we even got dirty. Soon, having pushed farther, we realized we stood atop the tomatoes. I pulled my goggles down, ready for battle, and immediately got clocked. Fruit flew. Produce chunks began to amass on my tank top and shorts. Through my goggles, I saw tomatoes flying above us, the sky a beautiful Minnesota summer blue. Among a thousand pushing bodies, I reached toward the ground and picked up a tomato. I threw it into the crowd like the outfielder I'd been as a kid, aiming not for home base but someone's face. I laughed crazily. Throwing tomatoes felt just fine.
Post battle carnage
I got into it. My throwing arm found tomato after tomato. Some I retrieved from the ground, disheveled fruits someone's flip-flops had stomped. Some I intercepted and threw back. I got dirtier. The tomato juice soaked my hair and seeped around my goggles and into my eyes, stinging them. My goggles were foggy and chunk-coated by the end. I couldn't see, but my hands found and flung. I don't know if I hit anyone, but I got hit a lot. I learned to dodge, and began to pick up two to three tomatoes at a time.
Eventually, I had enough. I got pushed face-first into someone's butt as I leaned down, and realized I'd tired of battle.
"It was awesome! A rush!" said tomato-stained participant Lynda Welp, whom I interviewed post-fight. She had stood near the front of the tomato crowd at the start, and aimed only for her friends during the fight. "I'll be honest," she said, "the first thing I did was push someone right into the tomatoes -- a big pile of tomatoes as high as your knees. "
Why do people love events like the Tomato Fest? Co-organizer Kevin Walker has a theory. "This is a bucket list event. It's not something you get to experience every day," he says. Situating the event in the heart of downtown Minneapolis puts it "right in our backyard." No longer must we travel to Spain to experience La Tomatina.
Now, we have our own celebration of the tomato.
"Who doesn't have a good friend they want to smash in the face with a tomato?" says Walker. "People want to escape reality after a full week of work, and this event says, 'Don't think about work. Bash random strangers with tomatoes instead.'"
Attendees were more than happy to comply. We smashed and bashed, with tomatoes as weaponry, and then escaped that faux battlefield for reality. It was joyous, albeit stinky.

Mapping the Pathway of PAH-Induced Bone Marrow B Cell ApoptosisEPA Grant Number: F5D10699
Title: Mapping the Pathway of PAH-Induced Bone Marrow B Cell Apoptosis
Investigators: Emberley, Jessica K.
Institution: Boston University
EPA Project Officer: Jones, Brandon
Project Period: September 6, 2005 through June 30, 2007
Project Amount: $94,980
RFA: STAR Graduate Fellowships (2005) RFA Text | Recipients Lists
Research Category: Academic Fellowships
Many studies indicate that environmentally ubiquitous chemicals, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), adversely affect the mature immune system. However relatively few have addressed how PAH affect the developing immune system and what molecular mechanisms are responsible for these effects. The primary goal of these studies is to determine the molecular mechanisms by which environmental chemicals impair immune system development using the prototypic PAH 7,12-dimethylbenz[α]anthracene (DMBA). In particular, t hese studies will elucidate the molecular events responsible for DMBA-induced bone marrow B cell apoptosis and serve as a basis for mechanistic studies on immunotoxicity mediated by xenobiotics in general. My hypothesis is that caspase-8 and mitochondrial activation are both necessary for optimal PAH-induced pro/pre-B cell apoptosis.Approach:
The following aspects of DMBA-induced pro/pre-B cell apoptosis will be investigated: the mechanism of caspase-8 activation, the importance of caspase-8 activation, the mechanism of mitochondrial activation, and the mechanism of mitochondrial activation and caspase-8 activation linkage. These studies will be performed using DMBA to induce apoptosis of developing B cells in a well-characterized in vitro murine model of B cell development involving non-transformed, stromal cell-dependent primary and cloned bone marrow B cells from wild type and gene knockout mice. Caspase-dependent and JNK-mediated mechanisms of caspase-8 activation will be tested. Caspase-8-dominant negative cell lines will be used to determine the importance of caspase-8 activation. C aspase-2, p53, Bax, and JNK will be examined as possible activators of the mitochondria. Possible pathways linking caspase-8 and mitochondrial activation, such as Bid cleavage and a caspase feedback loop, will also be investigated.Expected Results:
I expect to find that caspase-8 and the mitochondria are both activated during DMBA-induced pro/pre-B cell apoptosis, and that both are necessary for maximal apoptosis. Further, I expect the mitochondria to be activated before caspase-8, likely in a caspase-independent manner. If this is correct then I expect caspase-8 to be activated by a caspase cascade activated by the mitochondria. By determining the molecular changes resulting from PAH exposure our ability to predict consequences of human exposure to these pollutants and design rational strategies to block these effects will improve.Supplemental Keywords:

One Pound Fish = 12 Million Views
There's a fish monger in Britain who has hit the big-time with a catchy, ear worm of a song. Here are two videos that tell the story of the man who sold fish for £1 each… and the re-mix.
And now… with (as of this writing) about 12.5 million views, here's the re-mix. It kicks up after a brief clip from the above.
The man is a Pakistani national who has a work permit for England, and he's working on the spread of his song to France, and The United States. You can read about him here.

AlMajdouie Group Celebrating as the No.1 Company in Innovation for Business Sector
"I certainly agree that employees play a crucial role in the success of companies, and we must involve all employees to bring improvements at their work place, tapping their minds, exploring ideas & solutions" Those were the words quoted as part of the speech given by Mr Abduallah bin Ali AlMajdouie, President of AlMajdouie Group, at the celebration of No.1 Innovative Company in the business sector of Saudi Arabia, Awarded recently for the Group by Saudi Innovation Index 2010 in association with "AlEqtisadiyah" Newspaper.
The Group, moreover, had a celebration at Sheraton Hotel Dammam, on Sunday 31st of October 2010, for such accomplishment. The celebration attended by the Group managers, executives, Innovative program active members (SPARK) which the Group implemented since 2003 in order to engage the employees within Group innovative culture, work improvement and cost saving.
On the other hand, in a former press release "Innovabia" (Innovation of Arab Company) announced the results of annual survey "Saudi Innovation Index - EBTIKARNA 2010" recently carried out in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on the level of innovation in business sector for the first time ever.
Five local companies were declared winners in the business sector and three companies in the sub-domain. Almajdouie Group won the first place, followed by Henkel Arabia second, Saudi Electricity Company third, Saudi Telecommunication Company (STC) fourth, and Inma Bank fifth. While Zamil won in the field of vision and leaderships' commitment to innovation, and Al Jazeera in the products and patents of innovation to the market, the Al-Watania Group to invest in the Internet in creating the best environment for entrepreneurs.

Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Abdullah Ali Almajdouie, President of Almajdouie Group said; "Companies should see the change as both reason and license to expand their innovation horizon, to look high and low, outside and inside for innovative ideas. They have to accept greater responsibilities for fostering innovation within and beyond their organizations. Organizational culture that supports and encourages new ways of thinking, looking at problems, creating solutions and benchmarking how other organizations are doing things and then enhancing upon their processes is the hallmark of the successful innovator".
He added that employees play a crucial role in the success of companies, and we must involve all employees to bring improvements at their work and doing things better, faster, with better quality. In addition to tangible savings, employee ideas make the internal processes more efficient and in the long run, benefit the companies to deliver world class innovative solutions.

"We are definitely coming back!"
I have been in many places across Europe, but our recent Holiday at this place was just the best holiday we have ever had. Thanks to Maggie, who was very helpful with anything we needed, Airport transfer, car rental and the trip to Pamukkale. The place is just amazing, you really need to go there to be able to appreciate it. The Apartment is fabulous and as it is privately owned, it is furnished to a very high standard with everything we needed for our stay. The main highlights of this place are: its truly unique location, the swimming pool just at the end of your garden and a large patio with breathtaking sea views, we spent there many late evenings with a glass of wine. We loved the complex too, is clean, tidy and well maintained. This is very new resort with great facilities, from Pub and Restaurant to Turkish Bath, gym, indoor swimming pool, tennis court and golf. There are also large Water slides which became the main place for our boys. Overall, the place is amazing and its hard to describe it, I would recommend everyone to go there! Thank you Maggie and as we said - we are definitely coming back!

Brothers by batmanadik05Watch
©2012-2016 batmanadik05
Hey guys! Just wanted to show you the "brothers" in their past and present incarnation in the universe of Batman. Just wanted a some sort of evolution of the Robins, not including Stephanie Brown and or Damian. Just these 3 since I was too lazy to include Damian. But fear not, I'm planning on making an updated version with Damian when I find better pictures of that kid. So please comments are appreciated and if you really like it just click add to favorites. Thank you and God bless!
Best Robins Ever!
this is a pretty awesome concept.
In the Jason Todd evolution he's Robin in front then Red Hood later but what's the name of the character he eventually became standing at the back?
He is still Red Hood, but only in a different costume. That's what he wore when Dick became Batman and Damian became the 5th Robin.
Oh and kudos to the people here in deviant art for making some of these pictures (specially in Jason's pictures) to make this banner possible.

Hospital ManagerClara Black
Clara was born in Brooklyn, NY. Her family relocated to the Bay Area when she was 9 years old. As a child, she aspired to be an artist and was always drawing cats, dogs, horses, cows, and mice. Opal, the family cat, was portrayed with 16 neon claws on each paw! She then turned her interests towards veterinary medicine, volunteering at the Oakland SPCA and Berkeley Humane Society as a teenager. Clara earned her B.S. in Zoology from Colorado State in 2007. She spent a few years working as a veterinary assistant and receptionist at a cat clinic in Brooklyn, then moved back to the Bay Area and worked as a veterinary assistant, providing care to cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, and rabbits. In 2010, Clara changed her focus from patient care to client service and veterinary hospital management. She is excited to be a part of the VCA Tender Care Animal Hospital team. Clara currently lives in San Francisco with her 12 year old Boston terrier mix, Radio, who comes to work with her almost every day. For fun, they like to go to the beach or go hiking. Their favorite day of the year is Dog Day at the Oakland A's!

Best Carrot Cake (2013)
Dessert Gallery Bakery & Cafe
You can debate ad infinitum as to the "proper" composition of carrot cake (is coconut really always necessary?), but it's hard to argue that Dessert Gallery's version is anything but absolutely spectacular. Alternating layers of moist spiced cake (chock-full of raisins and pecans) and dense cream cheese frosting make for the sweetest striations found on this side of the Mississippi. A dessert, that is to say, that will make you forget about chocolate.

Cavan Monaghan Township council made it clear Monday that its preference for a casino location is at the existing Slots at Kawartha Downs facility in Fraserville in the township.
"If you use common sense, the current location would be much preferred over any of the four locations proposed by the city of Peterborough," said Coun. Jim Chaplin.
The city has come up with four possible locations for a new casino: The downtown near Del Crary Park; East City along Ashburnham Dr. or Lansdowne St. E. toward the intersection with Hwy. 7/115; near the intersection of The Parkway and Crawford Dr. in the south end; and just outside the city to the west at Hwy. 7 and Lansdowne St. W.
The township would be willing to talk to the city about the last site, which is in the township, but only if any agreement would not include the annexation of township land.
The site outside the city would see the township continue to receive some revenue from the casino, and the city would provide sewer and water service.
"I think to put it in the downtown is ludicrous," Chaplin said. "I don't think it's going to help the downtown. Existing restaurants, I believe, would suffer. I think you would see restaurants closing in the downtown."
"This is absolutely a step in the wrong direction," said Deputy Mayor Scott McFadden. "The discussion is about making a casino more accessible. It will be more accessible to city bus routes, which is absolutely tied in to the most vulnerable sector of the community."
"We have a 14,000-square-foot facility already," Chaplin said, "with ample land around it for expansion, and I think if a private operator is coming in, that would be more attractive because there is an existing facility and it's a lot easier to just build on to it than to rip everything up and tear down buildings and try to build something new."
Cavan Monaghan has shared in the revenue from the Slots at Kawartha Downs since 1999, collecting more than $3 million a year as the host municipality.
Council also took issue with the claims that a new casino would create an estimated 600 jobs.
"It's not going to create new jobs," McFadden said. "It's going to hurt the regional economy. The suggestion that 600 jobs are suddenly going to appear, keep in mind that's 350 jobs lost in another facility 10 minutes down the road. And it doesn't even speak to the devastation that is currently occurring in harness racing. So any suggestion that this is great for the region is ludicrous. It's completely the opposite."
McFadden also disputed the suggestion that the capacity for growth at Kawartha Downs is limited because of a lack of servicing.
"Ontario Lottery and Gaming is pushing that it has to be on municipally serviced land. That's not true. Some of the biggest slots and casino facilities that already exist in Ontario are larger than Kawartha Downs. They are already on private services, and that's not a limitation. We have to get beyond the concept that this municipality is over the barrel on servicing. It's not."
Council voted to receive a city report on possible casino locations, to continue talks with the city and to have township Mayor John Fallis and McFadden attend Tuesday night's special city council planning committee meeting on the casino issue.
Township council also voted to ask the city to join an economic development advisory committee that would include representation from the township and the county.
NOTE: About 20 people have registered to make presentations at Tuesday's meeting,
which starts at 6:30 p.m. in the boardroom at the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board at 1994 Fisher Dr. City council is holding its meetings at the school board office because the council chamber at City Hall is being renovated.

I've been asked to set up a site to sell a single product online, and that's all there'll ever be.
I don't want a CMS; it's a 4 page site and I'll be doing any admin myself so a CMS is completely unnecessary.
I've been playing with zen cart, but the whole "you need to register before you purchase" nonsense is a bit of a deal breaker. Besides that, installing a shopping cart for a single product just seems like overkill.
I don't want to suggest to the client they use a subscription service like shopify.
This is the 2nd site in 3 weeks that I've been asked to do something like this. The first time I just used the seller's merchant paypal account, but I need to find a better solution.
Has anyone any suggestions? I need to get this puppy up by Friday so time is ticking.
Many thanks in advance!

Local Life and Lore in Louisville
When in Louisville, Kentucky, do (and talk) as the locals do.
By: Robin Garr
Similar Topics:
Say it correctly
Yes, it is pronounced LOU-a-vull. Not Lewis-vill. Nothing marks you as a newcomer more than not knowing how to pronounce the name of your new hometown.
The Derby
The Kentucky Derby has been a Louisville tradition since 1875. Run annually on the first Saturday in May, this internationally famous horse race draws more than 125,000 people to the historic Churchill Downs racetrack a few miles south of downtown. The crowd is mostly tourists, soaking up the atmosphere and sipping souvenir mint juleps. Many Louisvillians prefer to celebrate Derby in house parties, watching the race on television. Derby season extends for three weeks of parties and civic activities ranging from the gigantic Thunder Over Louisville fireworks display to steamboat, hot-air balloon and foot races.
Behind where the old Sears used to be
Once you've settled in, prepare to receive directions to places you've never heard of by reference to other places you've never heard of (and no longer exist): "It's behind where the old Sears used to be" is a local favorite, followed closely by "it's east of where Baer's used to be." Countless variations exist. Many newcomers believe we do this to torment them, but it's not so. It's just our way.
Fish sandwich, please
Locals love to eat fried whitefish sandwiches, historically cod on rye with tartar sauce. According to some statistics, Louisvillians eat more cod per capita than residents of any other city in the U.S. Theories abound as to why this city 700 miles from any seashore should be so partial to fish. The prevailing story is that Louisville's large Catholic population created a burgeoning fish-supply industry by abstaining from red meat on Fridays during Lent. In the early 20th century, more than one-third of the city's residents were Catholic.
"Louisville's fish and cod consumption is a phenomenon that has puzzled me and others in the fish business for as long as I've been in it," Mark Kotok, of Arctic Fisheries of Buffalo, N.Y., told Louisville Magazine a few years ago. "There are no statistics, but for an inland city -- a city not served by coastal waters -- in my 40 years of experience, I don't know of another geographic area that consumes as much cod."
There are dozens of local fish-sandwich eateries: Moby Dick is the big local chain, with 18 locations in the Metro area, including those in the Butchertown neighborhood (1500 Mellwood Ave.), St. Matthews (4848 Shelbyville Road) and Middletown (12012 Shelbyville Road). Another famous establishment, Mike Linnig's, started in 1925. Its picnic-like grounds draw summer crowds to the Southwest end of the city (9308 Cane Run Road, 502-937-9888), Other favorites include Stan's Fish Sandwich (3723 Lexington Road, 502-896-6600); its near neighbor, The Fishery (3624 Lexington Road, 502-895-1188) and The Fish House (2993 Winter Ave., 502-568-2993).

My guy isn't crawling yet
My LO just started 3 days ago...I'm sure your LO will be crawling in no time or maybe he will just skip that step.
I have an early March baby that isn't even close... She just started rolling over a couple of weeks ago and sits very well on her own! My ODS was crawling by 7 months but I don't think DD will crawl at all which is fine by me :)
I think mine is going to skip crawling. She is holding on to the coffee table and walking around that.
My LO isn't crawling he's trying but has not got it down yet but he is pulling himself up. He really want's to walk but just not there yet.

If you've been craving a delightful romance with a brilliantly clever science fiction twist, look no further. Soem and Moraine pack this compell-ing tale with space gypsies, genetic engineering and a Protectorate that rules with an iron fist, giving readers a truly innovative story that will even reward after multiple reads. Adam and Lochlan are such different creatures and watching them figure out themselves and each other was a real treat for this reviewer.
Adam Yuga is a "perfect," part of a group of genetically enhanced people. Genetic flaws are outlawed and when one such flaw is discovered in Adam, his entire life is suddenly over. As his social standing and wealth are ripped away, he's reduced to stealing. Lochlan is a gypsy, a space Bideshi who calls a large homeship well ... home. He rescues Adam and, amid intrigue, Bideshi magic and a sacred ceremony, a reluctant but potent attraction grows between them. But Adam is in possession of a secret that his people, the fearsome Protectorate, will do anything to keep hidden. (SAMHAIN, Feb., 312 pp., $16.00)

From the Inside Flap
All through the terrors of the hideous realm of the Buried People of Amiocap and the unspeakable horrors of the Korsar's dungeons, Tanar refused to break. He was determined to escape, for he had dreadful news for the Empire -- the Korsars had captured David Innes! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
About the Author
Edgar Rice Burroughs was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1875. After serving a short time in the 7th U.S. Cavalry, Burroughs was a shopkeeper, gold miner, cowboy, and policeman before becoming a full-time writer. His first novel, Tarzan of the Apes, was published in 1914, and along with its 22 sequels has sold over 30 million copies in 58 languages. Author of numerous other jungle and science fiction novels and novellas, including The Land That Time Forgot, Burroughs had a writing career that spanned almost 30 years, with his last novel, The Land of Terror, being published in 1941. He died in 1950 at his ranch near Tarzana, the California town named for his legendary hero.

A new backlight with a polarizing light pipe that has great potential for improving the light yield of a liquid crystal display (LCD) is being developed. The aim is to eliminate the three major absorption losses of a TN LCD, which occur in the dichroic polarizer attached to the thin-film-transistor (TFT) glass, the black matrix on the TFT glass, and the color-filter array. The loss in the dichroic polarizer is reduced by the use of a backlight with a polarizing light pipe which produces linearly polarized light output. Both by theory and by experiment we have shown that the polarizing light pipe produces highly polarized light output under optimum conditions, i.e., a 17:1 polarization ratio in the viewing range from −10%° to 10%°. The brightness gain by polarization is calculated to be 1.44. The losses in the black matrix on the TFT glass and the absorbing color filter are reduced by making these components reflective, so that the light which was previously absorbed is now reflected bac k into the backlight for recycling. The backlight with a polarizing light pipe is effective in reusing the reflected light. When a reflective color filter is used, the brightness gain of a backlight with a polarizing light pipe over a conventional backlight is 11.3%. The total potential brightness gain by this method of light recycling is theoretically estimated to be 3.16. Therefore, the total gain of an LCD using a polarizing light pipe and reflective components over a conventional LCD is 4.55. This large gain suggests great potential for the polarizing light pipe.
