When I was in academia, my department's Christmas parties were an annual festival of drinking, dancing and fun. There was the feminist theorist whose flailing elbows and knees made her a force to be reckoned with on the dance floor, the conservative lit professor who would hit the grad students up for weed, the Irish poetry guy who would pour alcohol down everybody's throat, and the linguistics specialist who hit on anything with a double X chromosome. All in all, the yearly debauch was a time to let the hair down, embarrass oneself, and store up ammo for a year's worth of gossip. In short, it was a blast.
On the other hand, all the people that I just mentioned were tenured, so was damn near impossible to fire them. The rest of us had to content ourselves with moderate drunkenness and, even in the deepest pits of our alcoholic haze, had to keep one eye on the department pecking order, being sure not to insult the wrong person or let the barbs show too much in our jokes. It was an intricate dancing game: if you didn't drink enough, you were branded boring and condescending. If you drank too much, well, let's just say that there's such a thing as being too fun.
In light of the department Bacchanalias of years past, I was very interested when I came across CareerBuilder's latest drinking survey. It sounds like my department isn't the only working group that gets down. On the other hand, it also sounds like they aren't the only ones who live to regret it.
According to the survey, 20% of workers enjoy a happy hour with their co-workers at least once a month. Of that number, 82% drink socially out of a desire to bond with co-workers, 20% do it to network, 15% do it to pick up office gossip, 13% feel obligated to go, and 11% are trying to suck up to the boss.
These are all worthwhile reasons to drink with the rest of the people in the office. After all, even picking up gossip can prove useful when it comes to navigating the rocky shoals of office politics. The danger is that, in the process of drinking, many revelers skirt a little too close to the edge of drunkenness, displaying behavior that will come back to haunt them. Of the 20% who went to happy hour, 16% admitted to talking negatively or inappropriately about a co-worker, 10% let a co-worker's secret slip out, 8% kissed a co-worker, 8% admitted to drinking too much and acting "unprofessionally," and 5% let a company secret slip out.
It doesn't really need to be said that social drinking with one's co-workers carries a risk; this topic has been endlessly rehashed on hundreds of sites. What might bear repetition, however, is some key strategies for keeping your booze (and your actions) under control:
First off, eat something. If you can't eat before drinking, as CareerBuilder suggests, pull up a bowl of peanuts, order a sandwich, or snag a plate of french fries. Although I'm sure that someone will dispute this, I've generally found that starchy foods can do wonders when it comes to soaking up alcohol. In addition to protecting you from your own excess, eating can also ensure that the evening lasts a little longer. After all, nobody wants to be poured into a cab a half hour after the festivities begin!
Second, drink water. Not only will water consumption help minimize the hangover you're developing, but it will also help keep you from getting dehydrated while drinking. In other words, water can be your friend when it comes to keeping a clear head. When I'm working on staying somewhat socially acceptable, I try to average 8 ounce of water to each serving of alcohol.
Third, plan ahead. CareerBuilder suggests that you carefully avoid getting into competitive drinking. While I certainly agree that this is a capital plan, I also know that one can sometimes get suckered into iffy behavior. With that in mind, if you plan on consuming mass quantities of alcohol, use the old Irish bar trick: drink light beer. On the other hand, if you absolutely must drink Guinness or a single-malt scotch, repeat these key words after me: "I'm savoring the flavor. This isn't a guzzling whiskey." It helps if you can look down your nose while you're saying this.
CareerBuilder suggests other techniques, such as carefully choosing your bar and setting limits on your behavior. While these are outstanding ideas, I've found that the three strategies outlined above are usually enough to ensure that you will come out of your office boozefest relatively unscathed. Let the games begin!

Lego Heart

Thing Info
If you put two of those together you get a Lego Heart. You can take one piece and give it to your Partner. You can use it as necklace, keychain etc.
Unfortunately I didn't have any red material. But of course it would look better in red.
I had to play a bit with the parameters. If the thing is too small and you make the bottom holes the same size as to top knobs it maybe won't fit, due to inaccuracy, but that depends on your 3D-Printer. Also you may have to play around with the hole depth.

'It's a fine thing to be a great man, is it not?'
'I BELIEVE I forgot to tell you,' Wellington ended a letter to his brother Henry, 'I was made a Duke.'1
He was also appointed Ambassador in Paris, a post which Henry thought he would find 'very pretty amusement'. Wellington considered it a situation for which he would 'never have thought [himself] qualified'; but he knew that he 'must serve the public in some manner or other', and he had, after all, by now a good deal of experience of diplomacy in dealing with the allies in the war. Nor did he particularly want to go home: although he had 'been so long from England', he felt 'no objection to another absence in the public service'. 2
He arrived in Paris at the beginning of May, entering the city, in strong contrast to the many other generals there, in civilian clothes of a blue frock-coat, white neck-cloth and top hat. It seemed to be a city en fête rather than the capital of a defeated country. There were military parades, balls, receptions, picnics, parties. English officers prided themselves on 'imitating the Duke of Wellington in nonchalance and coolness of manner', observed Sir Walter Scott whose admiration of the Duke was unbounded.
So they wander about everywhere with their hands in the pockets of their long waistcoats or cantering upon cossack ponies staring, whistling and strolling to and fro as if all Paris was theirs. The French hate them sufficiently for the hauteur of their manner and pretensions but these grounds of dislike against us are drowned in the detestation afforded by the other powers. 3
King Louis XVIII, complacently accepting the throne which had been restored to his family, was host to three other European sovereigns, the King of Prussia, the Emperor of Austria and the Czar of All the Russias. Numerous statesmen were gathered there, too, as well as generals. Lord and Lady Castlereagh had come over from England. With them

Lent begins today! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
Jabez [Jā'bĕz]—he makes sorrow or height. A man of Judah named Jabez by his mother because she bore him in sorrow. He was noted for his honorable character and in his vow there is a play upon the meaning of his name (1 Chron. 4:9, 10).
The somewhat dreary genealogy of Judah in the opening chapters of Chronicles is enlivened by the heartfelt prayer of Jabez. Dr. Donald Fraser's beautiful comment on the passage is worthy of note:
If the names are as rows of hard stones that fatigue us when we walk on them, all the more precious this fragrant shrub, growing among them, and casting a sweet scent around. For some cause untold, a mother bare her son with unusual grief and called him Jabez—Sorrowful; but it was God's good pleasure to turn this Benoni into a Benjamin, the Son of Sorrow into the Son of the Right Hand; and the sad-hearted mother's fear was not fulfilled, for Jabez proved more honorable than his brethren. If we inquire the reason, it was because he prayed.
He asked much and obtained much. The Lord did grant things for him, whereof, surely, Sorrowful was glad.
Jabez is also the name of a city in Judah where a family of scribes dwelt (1 Chron. 2:55).

These coasters are really nice looking but two of the four have uneven surfaces. It doesn't impact large mugs but definitely makes for tippy glasses of water or wine glasses. Most likely won't purchase these again down the line.

The Daily Telegraph's claim today that teachers have a "£500,000 pension pot" is misleading and their calculations wrong, Left Foot Forward can reveal.

QuakeCon Preview: Falling through the TV with Oculus Rift
Aug 04
// Allistair Pinsof
What we got our hands on is only a prototype and not the finished model being funded through Kickstarter, but it did give us a glimpse into the future of immersive games. The awful memories of heavy, whiplash-inducing headsets and lagging, ugly visuals become a distant memory once you put these goggles on. Even though you are looking at an aging game (Doom 3) with hardware literally taped together, you can't help but smile at the future that Carmack is building. This is 2012's curved hallways: A gaming innovation so simple in concept but has long been so hard to achieve for all except Carmack. The hype around this technology is deserved, but it did sour my first experience with Rift due to high expectations. While Oculus and Carmack are building the future, they haven't built it quite yet. The first two things I noticed upon wearing the VR set was the low resolution and limited 90-degree view. Carmack stressed that these are both minor issues that will be addressed in time, but they proved to be noticeable obstacles in becoming fully immersed in the game. I felt like I was staring point blank at a CRT -- a jarring experience in the 1080p-era. Once I got past this complaint, I started to realize how fluid the visuals were and how I felt my presence in the game's world. Believe me when I say this is not hyperbole: I felt a keen sense that I could take a literal step back into the game's world. I could turn my head to see what is behind me and look up toward the ceiling. Where the experience lost me a bit was in the motion controlled gun. My head movement mapped to my aiming, so I could very slightly alter my view to raise and lower my gun. For the VR demo, Carmack removed all HUD elements which made for a rather miserable playing experience since I had no way to aim my gun The red laser on Doom 3's machine gun is there for visual flair and will actually lead to inaccurate shots if you aim by it. Carmack thinks new players will find aiming through VR sets easier than a game controller. This may be so but Carmack's demo didn't help sell me on this point. Carmack and Oculus are doing what arcades and even the military could never achieve. Though Carmack isn't planning on touching feedback vests and smell-o-vision, he is taking one dream-turned-laughing-stock of '90s gaming and making it into the reality we all wanted twenty-something years ago. This QuakeCon demo may not have sold me on this being the future -- who wants to stand to play a game or turn their head constantly in a heated multiplayer match? -- but it's interesting to see how far Carmack has brought this technology. As of right now, Oculus Rift isn't for journalists and gamers but developers who share the same dream that Carmack does. Together they may build new experiences we can't even conceive right now. Considering that, maybe it'd be better to hear what developers think of Carmack's new tech toy? Stay tuned for an upcoming feature where we ask developers what they think of the Oculus Rift.

So... gender and biology. All I'll say here is please respect people and their identities and don't try to push assumptions as fact. It doesn't need to be said to most here but denying people their identities is pretty harmful and very unpleasant.

ABSTRACT: IgA nephropathy is one of the most common form of primary glomerulonephritis throughout the world and a main renal disease which causes renal failure. P-selectin plays an important role in the pathogenesis and development of IgA nephropathy. The purpose of this study is to find a possible relationship between P-selectin gene polymorphism and IgA nephropathy. In this study, a comprehensive P-selectin gene survey, including entire coding region, part of regulatory region and exon-intron connection region, was performed with PCR-direct sequencing and 16 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) were detected. Then 210 renal-biopsy proven sporadic IgA nephropathy cases of Chinese Han nationality and 103 normal volunteers were recruited. 9 candidate SNPs (frequency > 5%) in P-selectin gene of both the case and control groups were genotyped with direct sequencing and a case-control association study was carried out. It was revealed that the SNP of -825A/G in promoter region of P-selectin gene was significantly associated with IgA nephropathy. Both the frequency of AG/GG genotype (21.9% vs 34.9%, P < 0.05) and G allele (11.4% vs 18.4%, P < 0.05) were less in the IgA nephropathy cases than in the healthy controls. Those carrying the low frequency G allele (AG/GG genotype) had a protective effect on the morbidity of IgA nephropathy and the odds ratio for the IgA nephropathy patients versus controls was 0.522 with AG/GG genotype versus AA genotype. Within the IgA nephropathy group, patients with AA genotype tended to present higher level of serum creatinine and soluble P-selectin than those carrying at least one G allele (AG/GG genotype) (P < 0.05). The SNP of -825A/G in the promoter region of P-selectin gene was significantly associated with IgA nephropathy susceptibility and patient's renal function, thus suggesting the genetic effect of P-selectin gene in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy.

ABSTRACT: To investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene of megsin, a novel serine protease inhibitor, account for the pathogenicity of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). A comprehensive megsin gene survey, including the entire coding region, part of the regulatory region, and exon-intron connection region, was performed by PCR-direct sequencing on the DNA samples of peripheral blood from 12 randomly selected IgAN patients and 12 randomly selected healthy persons. Eight SNPs with moderate or high frequencies (with the frequency > 5%) selected from the 11 SNPs found were used as candidate SNPs. Then 210 IgAN patients proven by renal-biopsy, all of Chinese Han nationality, and 103 normal volunteers were recruited. The 8 candidate SNPs were genotyped by direct sequencing or PCR-RFLP and a case-control association study was carried out. The SNP of 267G/A in 5'untranslated region within exon1 was significantly associated with IgAN. The frequency of AG/AA genotype of the IgA patients was 29.0%, significantly higher than that of the controls (16.5%, P < 0.05). The frequency of A allele of the IgA patients was 14.8%, significantly higher than that of the controls (8.7%, P < 0.05). The odds ratio of AG/AA genotype versus GG genotype was 2.07 with the 95% confidence interval of 1.15 - 3.74. The linkage disequilibrium between two SNPs existed commonly within one gene. 267G/A in megsin gene is associated with IgAN susceptibility. AG and AA genotypes are the risk factors of pathogenesis of IgAN.

COOLA®'s mineral sunblock is everything we want in a daily SPF. The updated, eco-friendly formula is made with 70 percent organic ingredients and protects from both the UVA rays that lead to premature aging and the UVB rays that cause painful burns. Great for all skin types—especially those with breakout-prone and hyper-sensitive complexions—the transparent cream dries to a flattering matte finish, doubles as a primer, and won't leave behind a chalky white residue. The refreshing cucumber scent gives us yet another reason to love it.
I've heard many things about this brand and figured it was time I give it a try since my daily sunscreen was running out. It is a good brand however, I have a tan complexion so when I rub this on I get a purple tinge. I have to rub in VERY well to get the tinge out. So this may not be an inconvenience for most it is for me when Im rushing to get out the door.3
I received this in my February box, and being on the East Coast - there was still snow outside and no need for facial sun protection. Now that it is May, sun is out, and I am spending more time outside, I tried this product out for the first time this past weekend. I love the texture. So smooth and creamy - not oily or sticky. The BB cream is really nice. Being brown complected it actually had a tone to it, that kind of looked like way-too-light foundation. Even after I rubbed it in, it still was a lighter color than my brown skin. I used it on my boyfriend who has very light skin and it blended, no problem. Overall I liked the feel of this, but the coloring is an issue for me, and I will not be making this into a purchase.3
This product has changed my life! It goes on smoothly and is incredibly lightweight. My makeup looks so much better when using this as a base under my foundation, and I feel like I get better sun protection from a mineral formula than what I was getting from my SPF moisturizer. Great product!!!5
This is a great product! It goes on smooth and doesn't feel greasy and has a light scent. However, I would disagree with their claim that it won't leave behind a white residue. I find that on top of my tan skin, you can see a powdery whiteness. I'd still recommend using the product...but maybe not as an everyday wear.4

International Quality Standards Set
Holusha, John, THE JOURNAL RECORD
N.Y. Times News Service
American companies got religion on quality during the 1980s, studying the teachings of such gurus as W. Edwards Deming and Joseph Juran and introducing programs that usually had the words "total," "quality" and "management" in their name. The problem: Everybody seemed to have a slightly different definition of what quality was.
But now, any American company hoping to sell its products in Europe is being forced to come to grips with a series of internationally agreed-upon quality standards. Formulated by the International Standards Organization in Geneva, the guidelines have been adopted by the countries in the European Community as the yardstick for measuring quality.
The standards cover the manufacturing and pre-sale inspection of products, as well as installation and postsale servicing. Arcane, but crucial, the guidelines will largely determine whose products may be sold to and within Europe's unified market.
Although there is no legal requirement that companies adopt the standards, which are grouped under the rubric ISO 9000, many European companies are pushing their suppliers to become registered under the ISO guidelines as a way of ensuring that the products they buy will be of acceptable quality. A company without an ISO 9000 registration risks being effectively barred from bidding on new business.
"This is the ticket to doing business globally," said Kymberly K. Hockman, a quality consultant at E.I. Du Pont de Nemours Co. "It tells customers that they do not have to send in teams of auditors; they use ISO 9000 as the quality standard."
The International Standards Organization agreed upon the ISO 9000 criteria in 1987. Besides the European Community, more than three dozen countries have adopted the guidelines for national use.
American counterparts have been issued by the American National Standards Institute, a private industry group, and the American Society for Quality Control, an association of corporate quality-control executives. These guidelines are technically equivalent to the ISO's standards, but incorporate American language usages and spelling. As with the ISO guides, compliance is voluntary.
The ISO 9000 is actually five separate standards, ISO 9000 through ISO 9004. The first and last of these, 9000 and 9004, are primarily concerned with definitions and advice on ways companies can improve their internal operations. For American companies intent on doing business in Europe, the more significant standards are 9001, 9002 and 9003.
ISO 9003 covers requirements for the detection and management of problems uncovered in final inspection and testing. ISO 9002 covers production and installations, as well as inspection. ISO 9001 adds standards for post-sale servicing.
Like most ISO standards, the rules specify what is required, but not how to do it. For instance: "Where servicing is specified in the contract, the supplier shall establish and maintain procedures for performing and verifying that servicing meets the specified requirements."
The legalistic language of the standards is not intended to make the pulse race, nor does it. A typical requirement: "The supplier shall establish and maintain procedures to control all documents and data that relate to the requirements of this standard. …

Love this fine tight line blends out well easy to use for first gel liner
Always good service and quick delivery
Not easy to apply but great once you can
Works really well to create a nice black line that stays on all day.
I really like this brush! You can get good precise lines and it does stay better than others i have used before that will often crack or look almost blue. Thing is it takes agesssss to dry and often i have found if i want to do thick ish lines half an hour later it has left a line on the top of my eye lid, best if u want to do every day make up not big and dramatic nights out look.
The packaging was a little excessive for the few products I ordered but they were taken care of as a glass nailpollish was wrapped in bubble wrap. I was however, really pleased with the service overall.

have you or someone you know compiled the files to a working program?
have you or someone you know compiled the files to a working program?
now where will I put my 2tb games to format and copy again hehehehe.
when will a "built-up" package be ready.. can't complile myself.
This is an awesome news!!!
You just convert the HDD to NTFS not format to NTFS..
Maybe because he said he never tested it, and some see it as a get out of jail card if it bricks someones PS3 or they have to reformat. With him reminding you , him saying he never tested it.
Its not something I need, nor do I trust due to what anyone will do to get access to wide open hacked PS3's thats on your home or works network enjoying your files like one of the family. That's my reasons.
Any conversion needs "formation" or your files won't work and/or get corrupted... so yeah... I'd say get a 2nd 2TB hdd and transfer them (don't format it... leave it as NTFS)
Microsoft's Convert to NTFS tool works perfectly - don't know where you're sourcing your information from but i've used the convert tools several times with success.
what about exfat? i have a 1TB drive that i would love to throw in... but it has to by exfat
Convert NTFS to FAT32, maybe this is the directly way to help you solve your problem. Typically problem is PS3 is not support NTFS, haha choose NTFS to FAT32 Converter (aomeitech.com) this tool can help you finish the conversion. In case of you want to convert it back, it also can help you.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
Michael G. Conners, administrator of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Chicago regional office, has been named the agency's new deputy assistant secretary. He will assume his new duties on January 17.
As deputy assistant secretary, Conners will direct and coordinate the activities of OSHA's regional and area offices. He will also be responsible for OSHA's directorates of federal and state operations, compliance programs and construction.
Assistant Secretary of Labor, Joseph A. Dear called Conners, "an excellent addition to his national office staff."
"Mike brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the deputy assistant secretary position," he said. "He was a pivotal player on our aea office redesign team and will provide a key role in implementing the agency's reinvention efforts in the field. He is also known as a strong enforcer of workplace safety and health issues."
Before beginning work in OSHA's Cincinnati area office, Conners worked as an industrial hygienist for the State of Ohio. He assumed duties as assistant regional administrator for technical support in the Chicago regional office in November 1980. In April 1982, he was named that region's deputy regional administrator, a position he held until assuming regional administrator duties in April 1988. He and his wife, Susan Salem, have one daughter. Conners has a bachelor of arts degree in zoology from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, and a master of science degree in environmental health from the University of Cincinnati.
Conners replaces James W. Stanley, who is leaving OSHA to work in the private industry.

Vasectomy: An Irreversible Decision?
Yes, it is true. There really is a procedure that can reverse a vasectomy (called a vasovasostomy). And every year, many men, for a variety of reasons, make the decision to undergo this procedure. But, before we get into the details of a vasectomy reversal, let's talk about what a vasectomy entails.
Why Would a Man Want a Vasectomy Reversed?Men may choose to undergo vasectomy for lots of reasons. Maybe they have completed their ideal family; maybe they have never wished to have children; maybe their family has a known genetic problem that they want to avoid passing on to offspring.A man may want to reverse a vasectomy for different reasons as well. Some reasons may be a new relationship (particularly after divorce or the death of a partner), the death of a child, or a change in a family's financial situation that makes it possible to afford another child.Very rarely, a man who has undergone a vasectomy experiences chronic pain in his testicles. Although this is a very uncommon complication of vasectomy, some of these men have experienced pain relief after a vasectomy reversal.
How Is a Vasectomy Reversal Done?A vasectomy reversal is major surgery, requiring either general anesthesia or sedation and local anesthesia. The surgical technique used for a vasectomy reversal may require opening the scrotum to visualize the internal structures, or operating through tiny keyhole-like openings. Very high-powered operating microscopes magnify the tiny structures.Basically, a vasectomy reversal attempts to reattach the severed ends of the vas deferens. This is very tricky microscopic surgery as the opening of the vas deferens is approximately the size of a pinhead. Furthermore, once the vas deferens has been cut, burnt, or clipped, it may develop scar tissue, which could block the sperm from moving through it. So even if the ends of the vas deferens are reattached, sperm may still be prevented from exiting the epididymis due to scar tissue. In this case, the urologist may need to perform a more complicated procedure, called a vasoepididymostomy, in which the upper end of the vas deferens is attached to the epididymis itself, in an attempt to bypass the area of obstruction within the vas deferens.

Nvidia's engineers sure have been busy recently! Just days after releasing a WHQL-certified driver designed specifically for the Windows 8 Release Preview, a new beta driver has landed in our laps today. The GeForce 304.79 beta drivers are important for a couple of different reasons: they're the first drivers to enable TXAA anti-aliasing as well as the first unified Windows drivers to integrate Windows 8 in with Windows XP, 7 and Vista. The drivers are promised to work with notebooks and desktops alike.
As always, you can read about the new beta drivers on the GeForce blog or grab them on the GeForce website .

Crack seller is given two years
A circuit judge sentenced a Sanderson man on January 27 to two years in state prison for sale and possession of crack cocaine within 1000 feet of the community center off CR 127.
The transaction involving Bobby Ozell Blue, 25, took place in early May of last year and involved a purchaser working for sheriff's investigators who furnished the $40 used to buy the drug. The sale had been arranged earlier via phone and was recorded as evidence.
Mr. Blue has a prior conviction for the same offense, plus sale a controlled drug as a juvenile and possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
In other sentences handed down that day by Judge Mark Moseley:
• Christopher Rodgers was given credit for 150 days already in county jail after pleading no contest to driving on a suspended license and possession of both marijuana and paraphernalia.
The state dropped three counts of resisting arrest with violence.
• Brandon Harrell admitted to violating probation on an earlier charge of possessing controlled drugs and was placed on drug offender house arrest for six months, followed by another 18 months on drug offender probation.
• The judge ordered Nancy Lafaso onto probation for 30 months in return for her pleas to burglary, aggravated assault, criminal mischief and petty theft.
In dispositions from the regular circuit court date on January 20, Richard Mills was ordered onto an 18-month drug offender probation for possession of drugs without a prescription. He must also submit to evaluation for drug addiction.
• Lori Strause was allowed to plead to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct and will be on probation six months. She was initially charged with domestic battery and violating terms of a pre-trial release.
• Deborah Burns admitted to violating an earlier probation for possessing chemicals needed to produce methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, and will be on drug offender probation two years.
Judge Moseley also ordered her to enroll in school or get a job.
• The judge revoked probation in the case of Melissa Pope and counted the month she had been in county jail as her sentence.
• Harley Raulerson admitted to violating probation for possession of drugs without a prescription and will serve an eight-month jail term less 44 days.
