The Magnet 3-Strand Head Rope fits virtually any roper and any style roping. Designed for Cammish Jennings, a #6 header and #8 heeler in Texas, the Magnet has the smallest diameter of any rope on the market, which makes it the fastest head rope you'll ever swing. Feeds so smooth and fast, it's practically impossible to wave off the horns. Pronounced crown which makes tip identification easy. Four Head Lays available: SS, XS, S, MS. SS, the #1 Super Soft, is the softest rope Cactus makes. This rope has the most tip weight of any rope on the market. Ideal for novice ropers to start with because it is so easy to swing. It is also used by some top-notch ropers who like a soft rope with lots of body. XS, the #2 Extra Soft, is Cactus' most popular rope. It's used by everyone from the novice to the professional roper. This rope works great on all types of cattle. The #2 Extra Soft was traditionally the softest rope, but Cactus developed the #1 SS for ropers that like an even softer rope. S, the #3 Soft, this is the 2nd most popular Cactus head rope. A favorite among ropers with experience and rope handling ability. It has enough stiffness to be swung and thrown harder without the loop closing. MS, the #4 Medium Soft rope, was developed for the most experienced headers. Its stiffness requires more skill to deliver and it has enough body to use as a softer heel rope. Headin' length: 32'. Size: 3/8".
Nylon/poly blend.

I have three features in a solution:
- A Web-scoped feature (A): has a FeatureActivated call to set up a site
- A Site-scoped feature (B): contains web parts A uses
- A stapling feature (C): staples A to a site definition
Is it possible to have a Feature Dependancy from A onto B that will cause B to be automatically activated? I've tried it in various combinations using the standard Feature Dependancy section on feature A, but the activation always fails.
If this isn't possible using the standard method, is there an alternative method I can use?

The Dark Meadow
The Dark Meadow - 'Deluxe Addition for Android' Teaser Trailer
The Android version will deliver enhanced visuals and physics resulting from the integration of nVidia's latest technology, the Tegra 3 chip, as well as new gameplay features including new game modes, story elements, levels and characters.
The Dark Meadow - Full-Length Launch Trailer
The Dark Meadow is a first-person action/adventure title backed by an unbounded story of intrigue, regret and revenge, and a navigation scheme and in-game combat similar to its spiritual predecessor, Infinity Blade -- all backed by the graphic horsepower of the Unreal Engine 3.
The Dark Meadow - Teaser Trailer
It is only when the witch is destroyed that you will be released from this unrelenting torment.
As you explore the photo-realistic world, you will need both your crossbow for ranged combat as well as your sword for in close, melee combat. Gesture-based "pull back and fire" as well as slashing combat will be instantly recognizable to iOS players, and node-based movement through the world makes navigation simple yet compelling.
Role-playing game mechanics enhance the exploration, as a wide variety of items are secreted throughout the world – from hidden scraps of paper that reveal the mystery of your imprisonment, to money which can be used to purchase better equipment and weapons.

WASHINGTON – Weather teams up and down the East Coast have different predictions for the winter months ahead. Some meteorologists are calling for average amounts of snowfall, while others forecast more.
According to ABC7 Meteorologist Mike Stinneford, the differing predictions of what winter has in store are due to the lack of a strong indicator, such as an El Nino, which helps to shape future climate patterns.
"During an El Nino winter we can see some heavy snows and some cool temperatures here in the mid-Atlantic," said Stinneford. "However, as we got further into fall, it became apparent that an El Nino was not going to develop."
Without a good indicator, meteorologists say there is a 50/50 chance of having a normal winter. They are looking at a variety of other data to gain some insight on the upcoming months.
"To get big snows here in the mid-Atlantic, we need coastal systems to develop, like a nor'easter," said Stinneford, who also reports that just one or two big storms could put the region above average for snowfall.
ABC7 Chief Meteorologist Doug Hill predicts that snowfall and temperatures will be near or slightly below the long-term average, with the majority of the region receiving around 10 to 14 inches of snow.
Capital Weather Gang predicts slightly below average snowfall and slightly above average temperatures.
NBC4 Chief Meteorologist Doug Kammerer expects the D.C. area to get 13-20 inches of snow, an above-average prediction.
WUSA9 issued three predictions ranging from normal to slightly below normal temperatures and slightly below normal to slightly above normal snowfall.

The Beaches of Agnes is a clever, Surrealist mash-up that chronicles the life and memories of Belgian director/screenwriter/editor/producer Agnes Varda. Employing both documentary and memoir, Varda whimsically stitches together her recollections using photographs, scenes from her films, and playful reenactments that retell her story, from her childhood in coastal France, her success as an influential film maker during the sixties and seventies, to her long marriage to French director Jacques Demy. In addition to being a love letter to the great film makers of French cinema, this is a fun, lively and visually experimental piece that locates the nebulous nature of memory as one of the primary characters.

The Story Behind Style
The people I meet are great storytellers and they actually take the time to share their thoughts and experiences with me. As a 28 year old man, this wisdom is invaluable in a world full of texting,twitter,face book and email.
Every time I see a photo of an older man or woman I instantly begin to think about their life, who they have met, what they have done. This is especially interesting in New York where you have so many opportunities for enriching experiences and the chance to meet some many amazing people.
Asking someone about their coat or why they chose to wear a certain accessory can ignite an hour long conversation, a history of New York through the eyes of people who know it best.
My experience with the Steinberg Sisters, back in August 2008 is a great example of how this can work.
My friend Jill and I met the Steinberg sisters while walking around Brighton Beach. The sisters were more than happy to stop for some photos and share some stories with us as well. Both ladies attended FIT when they were younger. They wanted to follow in the footsteps of their father who came from Poland, studied in London and worked in the Garment Industry. They proudly announced that he could, " Whip up a winter coat in a half an hour."
We caught the sisters on the way back from a shopping adventure and a trip to the library where they were looking at fashion books. They told us about exciting encounters with several celebrities including Liberace, Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller, Valentino, and Yves Saint Laurent, who they described as a "quiet man". When I told them how much I admired their style, they replied that their clothes don't cost much, but that they have many very pretty things.The Steinbergs, who live in the same apartment building a few floors apart, were thrilled to meet us, as they meet few people who they can share their stories with. Check out these wonderful ladies below.

Beach and habitat losses attributable to Superstorm Sandy have wildlife groups scrambling to repair the damage by the time spring birds arrive.
The storm washed away sand and vegetation that many species spawn in or call home, or polluted habitats with oil and sewage.
Particularly troublesome is damage to the beaches of the Delaware Bay in southern New Jersey. The area is known for birds including the red knot. The shorebird stops there to feed on crab eggs on the way from South America to the Arctic.
But Sandy washed away sand that the crabs need to spawn. And repair work will cost millions of dollars. The money for it and other repairs to help habitats will come from federal and state governments and nonprofit organizations.

United States Renewable Fuel Standard
Current ethanol production is primarily from the starch in kernels of field corn.
Federal policy has played a key role in the emergence of the U.S. biofuels industry. Policy measures include minimum renewable fuel usage requirements, blending and production tax credits, an import tariff, loans and loan guarantees, and research grants. This report focuses on the mandated minimum usage requirements—referred to as the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS)— whereby a minimum volume of biofuels is to be used in the national transportation fuel supply each year. It describes the general nature of the RFS mandate and its implementation, and outlines some emerging issues related to the sustainability of the continued growth in U.S. biofuels production needed to fulfill the expanding RFS mandate, as well as the emergence of potential unintended consequences of this rapid expansion.
Congress first established an RFS with the enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct, P.L. 109-58). This initial RFS (referred to as RFS1) mandated that a minimum of 4 billion gallons be used in 2006, and that this minimum usage volume rise to 7.5 billion gallons by 2012. Two years later, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA, P.L. 110-140) superseded and greatly expanded the biofuels blending mandate. The expanded RFS (referred to as RFS2) required the annual use of 9 billion gallons of biofuels in 2008 and expanded the mandate to 36 billion gallons annually in 2022, of which no more than 15 billion gallons can be ethanol from corn starch, and no less than 16 billion must be from cellulosic biofuels. In addition, EISA carved out specific requirements for "other advanced biofuels" and biomass-based biodiesel.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for establishing and implementing regulations to ensure that the nation's transportation fuel supply contains the mandated biofuels volumes. EPA's initial regulations for administering RFS1 (issued in April 2007) established detailed compliance standards for fuel suppliers, a tracking system based on renewable identification numbers (RINs) with credit verification and trading, special treatment of small refineries, and general waiver provisions. EPA rules for administering RFS2 (issued in February 2010) built upon the earlier RFS1 regulations; however, there are four major distinctions. First, mandated volumes are greatly expanded and the time frame over which the volumes ramp up is extended through at least 2022. Second, the total renewable fuel requirement is divided into four separate, but nested categories—total renewable fuels, advanced biofuels, biomass-based diesel, and cellulosic ethanol—each with its own volume requirement. Third, biofuels qualifying under each category must achieve certain minimum thresholds of lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions, with certain exceptions applicable to existing facilities. Fourth, all renewable fuel must be made from feedstocks that meet a new definition of renewable biomass, including certain land use restrictions.
In the long term, the expanded RFS is likely to play a dominant role in the development of the U.S. biofuels sector, but with considerable uncertainty regarding potential spillover effects in other markets and on other important policy goals. Emerging resource constraints related to the rapid expansion of U.S. corn ethanol production have provoked questions about its long-run sustainability and the possibility of unintended consequences in other markets as well as on the environment. Questions also exist about the ability of the U.S. biofuels industry to meet the expanding mandate for biofuels from non-corn sources such as cellulosic biomass materials, whose production capacity has been slow to develop, or biomass-based biodiesel, which remains expensive to produce owing to the relatively high prices of its feedstocks. Finally, considerable uncertainty remains regarding the development of the infrastructure capacity (e.g., trucks, pipelines, pumps, etc.) needed to deliver the expanding biofuels mandate to consumers.

Belizean coast mangroves
Mangroves at the mouth of the Monkey River, southern Belize. Source: C.Michael Hogan
The Belizean coast mangroves ecoregion (part of the larger Mesoamerican Gulf-Caribbean mangroves ecoregion) extends along the Caribbean Coast from Guatemala, encompassing the mangrove habitat along the shores of the Bahía de Annatique; this ecoregion continues along the Belizean coast up to the border with Mexico. This ecoregion is threatened by expanding tourism on the coastal areas of Belize along with growth in indigenous human populations. The presence of mangroves on the coastal fringe becomes more prevalent along the more southwestern reaches of the Belizean coastline. The ecoregion is denoted by the World Wildlife Fund as NT1405.
This mangrove association not only provides protection against coastal erosion and hence habitat stabilitity, but also supplies nesting and resting sites for many bird species; additionally the root zone offers a quiet protective zone for a multiplicity of juvenile marine organisms. Disturbance regimes do not include appreciable risk of frost, but are comprised chiefly of hurricanes and lightning strikes.
Geography and climate
Mesoamerican Gulf-Caribbean mangroves which include Belizean coast mangroves. WWF.
The Belizean coast mangroves ecoregion includes the mainland coastal fringe, but is separate from the distinct ecoregion known as the Belizean reef mangroves which are separated from the mainland. This ecoregion includes the Monterrico Reserve in Guatemala, the estuarine reaches of the Monkey River and the Placencia Peninsula. The ecoregion includes the Burdon Canal Nature Reserve in Belize City, which reach contains mangrove forests and provides habitat for a gamut of avian species and threatened crocodiles. The Shipstern Nature Reserve includes mangrove shorelines as well as a saline lagoon system and hardwood forests. The total areal extent of the Belizean coast mangroves is approximately 2800 square kilometres.
The tropical climate exhibits a rainy season from May to February and mean annual rainfall ranges from 1400 millimetres (mm) in the north to in excess of 4000 mm in the south. Spring tide amplitudes range between twenty and thirty centimetres. Although this is a partially protected area from high wave action, due to coral reefs farther in the sea, there are occasional severe tropical storms and hurricanes that make landfall here, from origination further to the east and south in the Caribbean Basin.

Chief mangrove tree species found in this ecoregion are White Mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa), Red Mangrove (Rhizophora mangle), Black Mangrove (Avicennia germinans); the Button Mangrove (Conocarpus erectus) is a related tree associate. Red mangrove tends to occupy the more seaward niches, while Black mangrove tends to occupy the more upland niches. Other plant associates occurring in this ecoregion are Dragonsblood Tree (Pterocarpus officinalis), Guiana-chestnut (Pachira aquatica) and Golden Leatherfern (Acrostichum aureum).
Heron in mangrove wetland, Monkey River mouth. @ C.Michael Hogan In addition to hydrological stabilisation leading to overall permanence of the shallow sea bottom, the Belizean coastal zone mangrove roots and seagrass blades provides abundant nutrients and shelter for a gamut of juvenile marine organisms. A notable marine mammal found in the shallow seas offshore is the threatened West Indian Manatee (Trichecus manatus), who subsists on the rich Turtle Grass (Thalassia hemprichii) stands found on the shallow sea floor.
Wood borers are generally more damaging to the mangroves than leaf herbivores. The most damaging leaf herbivores to the mangrove foliage are Lepidoptera larvae. Other prominent herbivores present in the ecoregion include the gasteropod Littorina angulifera and the Mangrove Tree Crab, Aratus pisonii.
Many avian species from further north winter in the Belizean coast mangroves, which boast availability of freshwater inflow during the dry season. Example bird species within or visiting this ecoregion include the Yucatan Parrot (Amazona xantholora), , Yucatan Jay (Cyanocorax yucatanicus), Gray Catbird (Dumetella carolinensis) and the Great Kiskadee (Pitangus sulphuratus).
Upland fauna of the ecoregion include Lowland Paca (Agouti paca), Coatimundi (Nasua narica), and Baird's Tapir (Tapirus bairdii). Aquatic species within the ecoregion include Morelet's Crocodile (Crocodylus moreletti), Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas), Hawksbill Sea Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata), Loggerhead Sea Turtle (Caretta caretta), and Kemp's Ridley (Lepidochelys kempi).
Black Howler Monkeys (Alouatta caraya) occur in the riverine mangroves in the Sarstoon-Temash National Park within the ecoregion. The Mantled Howler Monkey (Alouatta palliata) can be observed along the mangrove fringes of the Monkey River mouth and other portions of this mangrove ecoregion.
Pygmy or scrub forests are found in certain reaches of the Belizean mangroves. In these associations individual plants seldom surpass a height of 150 centimetres, except in circumstances where the mangroves grow on depressions filled with mangrove peat. Many of the shrub-trees are over forty years old. In these pygmy mangrove areas, nutrients appear to be limiting factors, although high salinity and high calcareous substrates may be instrumental.
Chief disturbance factors are due to hurricanes and lightning strikes, both capable of causing substantial mangrove treefall. In many cases a pronounced gap is formed by lightning strikes, but such forest gaps actually engender higher sapling regrowth, due to elevated sunlight levels and slightly diminished salinity in the gaps.
Aquatic facultatve mutualism occurs in this ecoregion between certain invertebrates and mangrove tree species. For example, prop-roots of Rhizophora mangel support a sponge fouling community; moveover, apparently the mangrove trees and the fouling sponges share nitrogen and carbon resources, resulting in enhanced growth and production of the two mutualistic partners. Thus the presence of sponges actually constitutes symbiosis, since it is also known that sponges along with ascidians actually inhibit the colonisation of boring isopods from the aerial prop-roots, and hence enhance growth of the mangroves.
Conservation status
The ecoregion is experiencing ongoing damage to the mangrove systems driven by an expanding indigenous human population as well as increases in tourism. Specific articulations of these phenomenona include the obliteration of the mangrove habitat at Belize City and urban coastal zone encroachment along the Placencia Peninsula, where hotel and condominium development are proceeding at a rapid pace. In addition, disposal of solid waste debris near indigenous human settlements are polluting mangrove habitat as well as interspersed backshore areas.

There are so many beginner to intermediate pool players constantly looking for that next big thing that will improve their game. They constantly try the newest tip, ld shaft, taper, etc, etc. They are always looking for the magic bullet that will make them play like a pro.
I hate to break it to you..but no new tip is going to give you a reliable stroke, no new shaft is going to make you play like a god, no new cue is going to give you what you don't already have in terms of skills and ability.
In my opinion, there are no magic bullets. Constantly changing from one thing to another, hinders the development of consistent results.
I think it's better to stick to one cue, one tip, and go from there to develop consistency. You can't develop consistent results if you are constantly switching tips, shafts, and / or cues because each change introduces new variables.
The best thing you can do for your game is to seek out a good qualified instructor who will analyze your mechanics and help you to develop a consistent, reliable stroke. Scott Lee, Randy G, or one of the other SPF (Set, Pause, Finish) instructors would be a good choice. I learned more, and improved more, from a short time spent with Mr. Lee than from anything else I had ever tried before (thank you Scott).
So my advice is..first develop your game, spend some time with a really good instructor, and don't worry about not having the latest "hot" tip, shaft, or cue. Now, once you have done that-- then feel free to try some new gear. When you find something you really like, stick to it!
FWIW, I prefer a solid hard rock maple shaft with a plain old inexpensive LePro or Triangle tip. I have a Cue Companion repair lathe and I have a stock of all kinds of laminated tips, but for me, nothing beats a good non-laminated tip. YMMV

Initial industry survey finds Carbonfund.org with best price and value
Washington, DC. March 20, 2006 - As more and more people are taking responsibility for offsetting their climate footprint by supporting renewable energy, energy efficiency and reforestation to reduce their emissions, Ecobusinesslinks.com, a leading web-based environmental information portal, has done the first comprehensive comparison of the nonprofit and for profit organizations providing carbon offsets.
"While more than a dozen organizations and companies are providing the services, what shocked us was the price discrepancy between groups basically providing the same level of environmental protection," said Ecobusinesslinks.com editor Edgard Swinnen. "Each group offered a high-level of certification for their offering, suggesting consumers should really be looking at price as the determining criteria. Carbonfund.org clearly offers the most environmental protection per dollar," he added.
Of the eleven organizations analyzed, five are based in the US, including Carbonfund.org, three in the UK, two in Australia and one in Switzerland.
At just $5.50 to offset a metric ton of carbon dioxide, the primary greenhouse gas causing climate change, not including the tax deduction American donors receive, Carbonfund.org was the clear leader in the study. Carbonfund.org supports certified wind energy, energy efficiency and reforestation projects, including a wind project on a Native American reservation in South Dakota. "Carbonfund.org also wins kudos for giving their supporters the choice of projects they want to support, providing an empowering customer experience," said Swinnen. Carbonfund.org also provided the greatest range of offset types, including cars, home, air travel and national average.
"Carbonfund.org is dedicated to making it easy and affordable for anyone to reduce their climate footprint," said Carbonfund.org President Lesley Marcus Carlson. "We are trying to offer the lowest cost pathway while giving our supporters the choice of where their money goes. If we are going to solve the massive global problem of climate change, which is getting worse with every passing day, we simply need millions of people engaged in the solution. On this issue, we can not afford to put profit ahead of our climate," she added.
Several groups, such as UK-based Trees for Life ($20 per ton of CO2), support only reforestation projects, seeking to replenish the rain forests and other areas ravaged by old growth forest cutting. The more expensive groups, including Native Energy, are for profit companies that are specific to car travel or wind energy and cost substantially more than Carbonfund.org, which offers both services. Sustainable Travel International, another for profit, came in at a whopping $30 to offset one ton of CO2, nearly six times the low cost provider.
The study also suggests the future for carbon offsets looks bright as more and more people are seeking to do their part to stop climate change.
Carbon Offsets
Carbon offsets are the process of reducing a ton of carbon dioxide emissions in another location for the emissions you cause. While most people can reduce their climate footprints by using energy more efficiently and buying cars that get better gas mileage, cost-efficiently reducing it to zero through individual actions is nearly impossible. Carbon offsets are a cost effective way to reduce the remainder of one's climate footprint.
Carbon offsets enable anyone to reduce their climate footprint by supporting projects, typically energy efficiency, renewable energy, sequestration, biomass, etc. that reduce carbon dioxide emissions to offset one's own climate footprint.

Ivermectin for Scabies
|Generic Name
|Brand Name
In the United States, treating scabies with ivermectin is considered an unlabeled use of the medicine.
How It Works
Ivermectin is a prescription medicine taken as a pill to kill scabies mites and their eggs.
Why It Is Used
Doctors may prescribe ivermectin to treat a scabies infestation in certain situations.
- People who have a severe or resistant form of scabies infestation, such as crusted (Norwegian) scabies, may be prescribed ivermectin in combination with medicine applied to the skin, such as permethrin. It can be especially helpful for treating HIV-infected people who have scabies.
- A pill form of medicine may be preferred for some people who are unlikely to use topical medicated creams or lotions properly.
- Ivermectin may help get rid of or prevent scabies for people in group living situations, such as those who live in nursing homes.
Ivermectin is usually not used for children younger than 5 or for pregnant women, because its safety in these children is not known.1
How Well It Works
Ivermectin is effective for treating scabies.2 One dose may be all that is needed, although sometimes a second dose is given a week or two later.
Side Effects
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
- Usually the benefits of the medicine are more important than any minor side effects.
- Side effects may go away after you take the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother you and you wonder if you should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower your dose or change your medicine. Do not suddenly quit taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor if you have:
- Hives.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Stomach upset.
- Vomiting.
- Increase in rash and itching during the first 3 days of treatment.
- Fatigue.
- Dizziness.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Take this medicine on an empty stomach with a glass of water.
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Advice for women
Women who use this medicine during pregnancy have a slightly higher chance of having a baby with birth defects. If you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant, you and your doctor must weigh the risks of using this medicine against the risks of not treating your condition.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

The Encyclopedia of Life, with which BHL is closely associated, is an online encyclopedia dedicated to creating a web page for every species on earth. These pages contain information about each species, links to mentions of those species in BHL, distribution maps, and a myriad of media, including images. EOL harvests many of their images from Flickr, including BHL images that are tagged with a species name machine tag. See an example of an EOL species page with a BHL image here.
Machine tags are tags specially formatted to allow machines to read and understand them. For EOL, these tags tell machines which species (or other taxonomic designations) are depicted in each image. The format for EOL machine tags is "taxonomy:binomial=Genus species". You can replace "binomial" with another taxonomic tag, such as "genus" or "family", if you can only identify the organism at that level. Learn more about the Flickr tagging process and machine tag formats in our previous blog post.
While BHL is working on ways to automatically add species tags to images in Flickr (learn more in the post about our recent NEH grant), the process is currently a manual one, requiring users to identify the species in each image with a taxonomic machine tag so that it can be ingested into EOL and associated with the correct species page. With over 30,000 images in the BHL Flickr, staff need help to get these images tagged. To facilitate this process, staff decided to call on the power of the masses and host a Flickr tagging party at the Smithsonian Institution.
|The Flickr Tagging Party at the Smithsonian Institution.
The tagging party was an overall success and excellent learning opportunity for both guests and staff. Approximately 170 images were tagged by the 23 attendees. A slightly high tag error rate has prompted staff to refine instructions and develop a simpler format for future events. Additionally, a survey was sent to attendees to allow staff to identify further areas for improvement.
Staff hope to host many more of these events. Incorporating changes based on lessons learned during this first attempt, several more staff parties are planned for the coming months. Later this summer, staff plan to host an event for a natural history society in the Washington, D.C. area before finally hosting the first public tagging party, most likely stationed at the Smithsonian Institution. If you're interested in learning more about tagging Flickr images or perhaps participating in future public events, send us feedback. Be sure to check back on our blog regularly for more information about Flickr, EOL, and machine tags!

First tut, so be gentle on me.
Alright, at first you need the pictures you'd like to turn into a brush pipe of course. For my example I'll use just two, but as far as I know there isn't a limit for the number of brush elements, so you can turn even ten or more pictures into a brush pipe.
Step 1: Open GIMP and create a new transparent image (The size loosely depends on the size of the brush elements. What matters is that they all fit into the new image!).
Step 2: Open your first brush element as a layer by "Open as layer" -> "[path to image]".
In most cases. the brush elements need to have alpha channel though, If your pictures are .jpegs or any other format that doesn't support alpha channels, you'll have to add alpha manually. Go to "Layer" -> "Transparency" -> "Add alpha channel" and then take away everything that doesn't belong to the actual image until there is just the element you want on a transparent background. (See example above)
After that, delete the very first layer (the one you created at start-up).
Step 3: Open the next image - again - as a layer and place it as a new layer in the same position right above the previous one (that should actually work automatically.
Step 4: Repeat step 3 until you have all the images you want for the brush pipe as separate layers placed above one another.
Step 5: Cut the image down to the smallest size in which all the layers fit into, by "Image" -> "Cut down automatically".
Step 6: Save your file as [filename].gih (gih stands for GIMP image hose)
A window will appear:
In the second line you can insert a custom name for your pipe. Careful: It's not the file name that determines the name of the actual brush pipe. If you just leave it be, your pipe will appear as "GIMP Brush Pipe" in the list of brushes, which is quite uncomfortable if you have more than one pipe later on.
The other settings you can just adopt as they stand except for the "rank". Up the value for rank to match with the number of different layers you have used for the pipe. In my example I would insert the number "2", because I used only 2 layers.
Step 7: Hit on "Save" and put the new file into your brush folder.
That's about it. Now you only need to either reload your brushes or close and re-open GIMP and you can paint with your brand new brush pipe.
Hope this tutorial was understandable! If I have blundered with the correct translation (or anything else), any moderator may feel free to edit this post.

I guess this method I described is a little roundabout in some steps. but meh, the main point is that it works.

Hi, I am trying to make a brush pipe according to your steps. When I first create the file, the brush shape is black and the background is transparent. However, after I create the .gih file, and try to use the brush, instead of brushing with the black shape, the entire square is black with just a barely visible white outline of the shape.
what did I do wrong, do you know?

Sure, you may not have spare tea pots lying around your house, but I can guarantee you can find a variety at the thrift store… for pennies. Why not create mock planters and display your favorite greens on the back porch this summer?
I'd also play around with teacups, patterned vases and more for an eclectic and sweet look. Who says planters should have all the fun?

Heather Corinna replies:
Is there anything other than birth control that will help lighten my period and relieve cramps?
There sure is!
Per your cramps, it partially depends on why you're having them. So, the first thing you will want to do, especially if they are severe, and if you have other menstrual issues, is to check in with your gynecologist or other reproductive health professional and make sure you don't have some other issue -- like endometriosis or PCOS, for example -- that is causing or exacerbating your cramps.
If you get the all-clear there, and you and your doc are sure you're just dealing with run-of-the-mill menstrual cramps, you can try the following things, all of which should at least help, if not make your cramps pretty obsolete:
If your daily diet isn't so great and has a lot of those things in it, your overall health is going to be massively helped by at least limiting them, and if you can't swing that, at the very least, limit them just before and during menses.
Too, over time, your cramping will likely decrease with age. However bad your cramps are now, it's entirely possible than within just a few years, they'll be better, all by themselves. A lot of people forget to tell young people that the menstrual issues they have now aren't an indication of what they'll have going on once they're well into adulthood, and that it's very typical for bad cramping you have the first few years of your period to be temporary, or at the very least, less intense once you get a little bit older.
Do understand that the pill doesn't really lighten your period, because the pill changes your cycle so that you don't HAVE a menstrual period. You will have, on most pills, what is called a withdrawal bleed, which is a bleeding and release of some endometrial tissue accumulated during the month (and given how the pill works, there is far less to shed) caused by that week of placebos, and thus, no hormones. Because it is not a period at all -- even though it looks, and in some ways acts, like one -- and because one of the ways the pills works is to decrease the growth of the endometrium -- that's why that monthly bleeding is lighter on the pill.
I don't intend to knock birth control pills here, either: they are excellent, effective and safe ways to prevent pregnancy which -- while certain side effects aren't so desirable -- can have some very desirable side effects which often include reducing cramps and a monthly flow that is lighter. But they do tend to be given often as a quick fix for menstrual complaints, many times without a doctor even looking into the WHY of those issues, or first suggesting other items like the above, which usually do the trick AND have very real benefits to your overall health. They also carry risks which remedies and habits like the above don't have at all.
More to the point, even for those on the pill, all of the above are not only great things to do to help with menstruation and reproductive health, most are vital ways you need to be caring for your whole body, every day.

Dwayne Forge's Apartment is an apartment room located in one of the blocks in East Holland, Algonquin, Liberty City in the GTA IV Era. It is featured in the mission The Holland Play, where Niko Bellic is sent by Playboy X to kill Dwayne Forge, yet the player has the option to kill X instead.
The apartment is located at the 2nd floor, and has 6 rooms. It has one corridor, a bedroom, a bathroom, an unused room, a living room and a kitchen.
The rooms are very dirty, the bedroom has some blood splatters, at the entrance, the corridor and the living room are full of blood on the floor and some walls. Many furnitures are broken. The living room has a graffiti, and many magazines and newspapers.
The blood implies that while Dwayne Forge was in prison, hobos entered his house and beat each other. It is unknown if Dwayne killed anyone in the house. The reason of blood is never explained in the game.
- The door is never locked, this supports the ideea of hobos mentioned earlier.
- In GTA IV, The Vibe 98.8 can be heard playing in the living room. In EFLC it is swiched to The Beat 102.7

It's been almost a year since Sarah Smiley's husband was deployed to the Middle East. A Navy pilot, he'll be returning home to Bangor this month. But in his absence his family has undertaken a unique project to mark the time he's been away. Sarah and her three young sons have invited at least one guest a week to fill his empty seat at the dinner table. And they've learned a lot about breaking bread with strangers and made some lasting friendships along the way.
A syndicated newspaper columnist, Sarah Smiley said the idea came to her during a conversation with her husband just before he went away. It was to be his third deployment in their 13-year marriage. And Smiley said she got to thinking about how lonely dinnertime can be.
"That's when families who are together retreat into their homes and sit around the dinner table. And they have dinner but you are alone" Smiley said. "And I was worried about feeling isolated and everything and so it just sort of evolved. I said, You know, I'm going to make a commitment to invite people over and not be lonely while you're gone. And he said, Yeah, you and should invite lots of different people that the kids can get to know."
And over the past year that's exactly what 12-year-old Ford, 10-year-old Owen and five-year-old Lindell have done. They made a dinner guest wish list and started inviting people. Before long the project took on a life of its own in Sarah's newspaper column and on Facebook. "Dinner with the Smileys" has even turned into a book that will be published early next year.
"Whenever people ask me, What's your favorite dinner? I have no answer because every single one of 'em has been different for different reasons," she said.
For example, Senator-elect Angus King (I) spontaneously joined in a fake sword fight with the boys, pulling out a bagette from a bakery bag as they jumped over the bushes and attacked him on his way in the door. When Gov. John Baldacci (D) came for dinner he played catch with the boys in their backyard and later allowed their dog, Sparky, to sit on the couch in his lap, something that's a no-no in the Smiley household except when a former governor gives it the okay. Owen Smiley said one of his favorite dinners was at the Blaine House with Governor Paul LePage (R) and his wife, Ann. They had chicken parmesan for dinner, played hide and go seek and listened to a few of the governor's stories.
"Apparantly, he ran away from home so we talked about that. He was 11," Owen Smiley said. "A lot of people disliked us, though, for going there because alot of people don't like the governor politically. I don't know why."
Dinner, as you can hear, is not necessarily a quiet time in the Smiley household. The boys are engaging and curious and not always on their best behavior. Sarah Smiley said that's something Gov. Baldacci learned first-hand during his visit. There was an incident. She said Governor Baldacci took it well...but Smiley is saving the details for her book. Still, she said there's a lesson to be learned from all that comes with having kids and adult strangers interact around the dinner table.
"I think what it's shown and shown other people is that when you invite someone to come for dinner they're coming because they want to spend time with you, not because they want to see how clean your house is or how well-behaved your children are," she said. "You'll see that tonight."
Recently the Smileys sat down to their 51st dinner of the year with several of the boys' teachers and principal. Smiley made a taco ring, one of about five standard recipes she shares with her guests. They began the meal with a question: What does Maine mean to you?
Owen Smiley: "What Lindell thinks Maine is to him is, should I said it? It's sugar. Lindell Smiley: "Yeah, it's sugar, now, your turn." Kristi Dube: "Let's see. Maine means home, family, potatoes because I'm from Aroostook County."
And there have been some sad moments as well, their elderly neighbor unexpectedly died before they could arrange to have dinner with her. Instead, the boys decided to visit a nursing home, and dine with an elderly man with dementia and his wife.
"[The man] was talking to me about missing his wife but she was right there," Sarah Smiley said. "And I was talking about missing my husband who was not there, you know? So, he and I talked about the fact that there's lots of different forms of being lonely. She didn't even remember that they'd been married 60 years."
"The only thing she remembered is that he was her best friend," said Ford Smiley.
The Smileys said they've made a lot of friends during the past year from several Red Sox players, to police and firefighters and a city councilman who continues to come over for regular visits. Above all, they said, what they've gotten out of these meals is that it doesn't matter what you cook, it just matters that you connect. And they'll be doing that in a big way when Dustin Smiley returns home from his deployment to take his seat at the table on Saturday.
