The Salvation Army is helping kids in Bay County get ready for school.
In front of the yellow school bus inside the Panama City Mall are hangars with information about some local students who need help getting back to school clothing.
The hangars list the children's size and what clothing they need to fit in for the first day back to school August 5.
To help out, all you have to do is pick up a hangar with its list located at the school bus inside the mall. Go purchase the needed clothing and bring it back to the Salvation Army for distribution in early August.
The Clothes for Kids drive ends July 31.

This is just a quick reminder that if you didn't already do it last night, now is a great time to make yourself some notes for next year's Pesach.
What recipes worked? Which ones flopped? Did you pack away any unopened food stuffs for next year?
Here are the notes I made for myself. I did them in Evernote, as I was packing up the tubs – and I'll transfer this information to Google calendar later today. That way, a month before Pesach, a friendly reminder from myself will pop up just as I start stressing again about the holiday!
* 10 lbs of matzah in store room – We got it on clearance for $1/pound – a good price for us. My father-in-law told us, though, that he got it for $1 per FIVE pounds in New Jersey! JEALOUS! We have stored successfully matzah from one year to the next. Just make sure the boxes are sealed and stored in a dry and critter-free area.* stored in meat pots & pans tub:
- 3 boxes potato starch – Ditto the 50% off clearance. And my family has found that we prefer desserts made with potato starch over cake meal.
- 2 canisters of matzah meal
- cinnamon – 1/2 full (I just taped it up and stored it in a ziploc. It may lose a bit of potency, but it shouldn't go "off".)
- 2 sets of salt & pepper shakers (1/2 – 3/4 full)
- Gefen ground pepper
- Paprika pouch – full and unopened* Plagues – Have (don't need to buy)
- frogs
- beasts
- lice
- blood
- darkness** Look for plastic "pantry" on sale this year** Look for sale on nice Elijah cup** Need washing cup and more Netilat Yadiyim hand towels for seder
** Don't buy powdered sugar – make it from regular sugar in blender
Did you leave yourself Pesach notes?

This is such a super strong open that almost all proxy multishpere meta files pack it for its 1sp up to lvl 4 merc death which basically wins games especially if lvl 4 targeted.
I am fine with this card in augmented files but I think it needs to be changed to stop ot limit it being using in other ones.
It is so good some files even proxy just to use this in files usually with no other lawtia cards in their file. And do not tell me it is hard to mulsphere. With cards like proxies,moxies,chaos strong hold it is so easy. Also all guys pretty much have it so abuse is rampant.
I suggest changing open to something like the following:
e.g.change open
Conditional use atleast 10 augmented or abyssal forces cards in file/grave/removed. (edit thanks muklas)
reduce lawtia lvl to 0 and reduce all other sphere levels to a max of 2
Or add start skill
Set one when random non lawtia friendly unit to hp=0
I am sure other people feel the same way.
That way it is more balanced when used outside augment files.

I didn't see any picture that stretched the resolution limits. I couldn't tell which images were taken in or out of focus, at high or low aperture, were subjected to camera shake, suffered lack of resolution due to lens quality. Comparing two images taken under different conditions at different lighting levels or incidence angles of different subjects is not a reasonable way to determine camera imaging quality differences. It's like asking which is a better chef by comparing Chef Mike's liver and onions with Chef Joe's meatloaf.
I suppose I will have to fall back on the answer to this question: what proportion of professional photographers, or serious amateurs, choose to use the iPhone as their camera of choice?
Can you tell the difference between an iPhone and DSLR photo?
Lauren Crabbe | Published: Mar 8, 2013 at 19:34 UTC53
Camera geeks are always fighting over what gear takes the best photos. The folks at Snapsort have created a website dedicated to settling the arguments once and for all.
Camera Showdown pits similar photos taken on different cameras up against each other and asks viewers to choose which photo is the best without knowing what camera was used to take the photo. The results are sometimes shocking—I expected the Canon 5D Mark III to clobber the iPhone 5 in my test, but the DSLR only won by 60%.
The site is trying to function as a Pepsi Taste Challenge for photography and is more of a game than a way to quantify a camera's photographic potential. Without going out and taking the exact same composition with the same settings and similar lenses, Camera Showdown can never provide an absolutely precise comparison, but the site is still fun to play with to see if your gear prejudices are warranted.

I have an old Canon 30D... so I thought it'd be fun to do the 30D vs the iPhone 5... yeaaahhhh... 30D 80%. No, I didn't cheat in any way, I picked the better QUALITY photo, not who framed the best photo. That would be comparing the photographer's eye and/or lucky opportunity for a good shot vs the camera. I don't get how you can compare cameras with different shots, saying you like the content of the shot better than the actual quality of the shot. Comparisons like these aren't the best methods at all.

I found that the SLRs trashed the iPhones and, surprisingly, that my personal choice of camera did better than the competitors (doesn't matter which is which!).
What I found interesting though was that I was drawn to the better images and didn't pick the images apart looking for some clue as to which was which. The better images were always "better". Also iPhone images that I chose were ones that you'd be unlikely to see for an SLR.
I guess this means both have a place in photography...

But it's just using the flickr API to display publicly viewable images from flickr. It's not selling the images, or using them for promotional material. That the website might be making money in some way (although I see no direct monetization) doesn't matter. It's no different from Google image search showing you a page full of images pulled from other sites.

There is no substitute for experience! Give a professional golfer a set of clubs with wooden shafts and match him up with the once a month amateur who has the best golf equipment money can buy... Guess who will outperform 99 percent of the time? The equipment is only as good as the individual handling it.
About a year ago, I had the opportunity to display some of my photography at a local show. My entries consisted of a display of smartphone photographs. I actually believed that my shots were unique and had some value. All I can say it was a humbling experience when I tried to compare what I have done to that of the professionals' works.
If you want to link the iPhone with photography this is my solution... Take the smartphone and call, text or surf for businesses that offer quality photography equipment and services.
If you have the chance to go to a wedding and see the designated photographer use an iPhone then you are probably in Las Vegas. Happy shooting!

Amen brother! Just because someone frames up a good shot, doesn't mean it's a QUALITY shot. How about we disect those photos... CA, vignetting, noise, etc... SLRs have a bigger sensor for a reason, amongst a million other features the toyPhone can't match. Once again, I'll repeat, someone can frame up a good shot on an iPhone, and the photo be "nice" but quality is a whole different story people, PERIOD.

At first I thought I noticed a trend with the canon vs nikon "test" and it was that there seemed to be a difference depending on the type of photography, i.e. arty vs documentary, but after a while that no longer applied. Sometimes favouritism conquers mood, a building vs a bridge, a drink vs a girl, a bird vs a landscape and so on.

In my play through it was too easy even without looking at the EXIF information. You just have to look at the bokeh and if the field of view is particularly wide or narrow.
Also there are a ton of instagram-ed photos, coupled with the small image size, it makes the comparison a bit meaningless.
However the point of the site probably still stands that for the purpose of online viewing on a small size and if the scene doesn't require a particularly thin DoF or wide/long focal length, a decent smartphone camera is good enough for most users.

i seriously disagree with the methodology used. it shouldn't even be called a test or a comparison tool. there's nothing to compare.
i'm seeing the most retarded "comparisons". who in their right mind would choose a photo of an office buiding ceiling shot with flat light over a super grainy but dynamic sunset shot of a beach resort? and yet, this "test" tool gives us that comparison.
i don't care how good your camera is, if you take a photo of a ceiling with general office lighting, it will never look good or be appealing.
if this was a like for like photo comparison web app, i'd be all for it. the way it's set out now, it should strike "test" and "comparison" from its description.

It's flawed because it didn't ask which was taken by which camera, it said "Which photo is better?" Of course some working photos have been taken with good equipment. Then it showed a picture of two fat blokes building something versus a beach sunset. 90% of my choices were for the canon 5d III not the iphone but on the subject and beauty, not the quality.
It's not a camera showdown at all, it's a picture comparison and compares some stupid choices.

While not a scientific comparison, it was a fun site :) I think it's quite easy for keen photographers to tell the images apart. You pick the images that have the better dynamic range, shallower depth of field, less garish HDR, better transitions between highlights and shadows and you're almost certainly picking the DSLR.
I would have been far more impressed if the images were more difficult to tell apart.

Only if you care to cheat. The point of the site is to help someone decide between two potential cameras, so choosing the more pleasing image, in theory, helps come up with a result that means something.
The problem I had was I felt some of the images were just not similar enough, one was obviously just nicer in terms of composition which had nothing to do with which camera took what.

the point is, had the same photographer taken the same shot with different equipment, he will get different results. the same iphone scene as a dslr will conclusively show how big the difference is.
if the conclussion was as u stated, the site itself fails horribly. if you take a dslr and shoot a blank wall then take a phone camera and take a portrait, obviously the portrait will always be better. now take a portrait with a dslr and compare that to a phone portrait.

I didn't even notice the exif data and I picked all but one correctly. The problem with that test is that it asks "which is the better picture?" and not "which picture was taken with an iPhone?" The composition and subject matter was better in some of the iPhone pictures so to me, THOSE were the better pics, even though I knew they were taken with an iPhone.

Caring for your trees
With the arrival of fall, days will soon be getting noticeably shorter and nighttime temperatures will begin to fall.
Now, as your trees begin responding to the changing conditions, you can take a number of proactive steps to care for them and help ensure they will be healthy and beautiful for years to come.
"It's a good idea to think about the health of your trees in fall," says certified arborist Jason Anderson, co-owner of Arborscapes LLC. Anderson conducts the training on trees for Master Gardeners in Henrico, Chesterfield, and Goochland/Powhatan.
He advises starting by taking a good, long look at your trees. Notice whether there are dead branches – which are much easier to identify while the leaves are still on the tree. Some dead branches are normal, but if more than roughly 10% -- the amount varies by tree type – is dead, you may want to consider talking to a certified arborist.
Look again when the leaves start to fall to make sure all your deciduous trees of the same species are dropping their leaves at roughly the same time. "If one is dropping its leaves earlier, it can be a sign that the tree is stressed," says Anderson.
Checking trees of like species again next spring to see if they bud at roughly the same time can also help you tell if you have a tree that is stressed.
"An important thing to remember," says Anderson, "particularly if you have a mature tree is that the tree may not show signs of distress for two or three years following the event that causes the stress."
After looking up, look down to check the mulch around your trees.
"Mulching is one of the best things you can do for your trees," says Anderson, "provided you do it properly."
Mulch around trees should be no more than 2-3 inches deep and should never be piled up against tree bark at the base of the tree. Make the ring of mulch as large as you can up to the dripline or end of the branches of the tree.
Good mulch materials include aged sawdust, shredded pine bark, or wood chips.
"It's important not to over mulch," says Anderson. "And you need to remember that mulch goes over the roots, but not on the trunk of the tree."
Mulch adds organic matter to the soil around the tree and helps keep soil temperatures warmer, allowing tree roots to continue to grow later into the fall. Once winter arrives, mulch helps reduce alternate freezing and thawing that heaves soil and can cause damage to young roots.
Mulching also reduces water loss and helps maintain uniform soil moisture around tree roots.
"Grass roots compete with tree roots for water," says Anderson. "Mulching eliminates the competition."
Fall and winter when trees are dormant are also ideal times to do any pruning that may be needed. "Structural and formative pruning on trees less than ten years old can help eliminate problems in the future," explains Anderson. "And older trees may need deadwood removed to improve their structure and reduce liability during bad weather."

STRINGTOWN, OK - Mack Alford Correctional Center officials say the convicted murderer who escaped last week climbed over the 14-foot razor wire fence.
Officials say Jason Bales escaped around 6:30 last Monday morning. He was at his on-site job...which was still inside the fence. Officials believe he was able to slip away from the guards because it was dark.
The Department of Corrections is assessing and adding more razor wire to weak spots in prison fences across the state.

Wood Release
this wiki
The Wood Release (木遁, Mokuton, English TV: Wood Style) techniques combine earth and water-based chakra to create wood. Wood Release techniques can be produced from anywhere, including the user's body, as the user's chakra is literally converted into a source of life. Wood Release is commonly affiliated with the Snake seal. Hashirama Senju was the originator of this ability, evidenced by the fact that none of his relatives have been shown capable of using Wood Release. His ability to use these techniques was one of the reasons for him being given the title of the First Hokage, and with Wood Release Secret Technique: Nativity of a World of Trees he was able to grow the trees that served as the foundation of Konohagakure. This technique allowed him to completely reshape the battlefield to his advantage.
Orochimaru, in his quest to harvest the First Hokage's abilities, injected his DNA into sixty test subjects, and out of the sixty only Yamato survived. This gave Yamato the Wood Release abilities. However, he is not as masterful as the First. Orochimaru also performed a similar procedure on Danzō Shimura by implanting the First's cells in his right arm. While Danzō is capable of using this power at a similar level to Yamato, it appears to drain Danzō more significantly with each usage, causing Danzō to avoid using it whenever possible. As stated by Madara Uchiha, the First's powers are not so easy to control, and that when Danzō was on the verge of death, the cells in his arm went berserk, trying to swallow him whole by converting him into a tree.
A related technique is the Hokage-Style Sixty-Year-Old Technique - Kakuan Entering Society with Bliss-Bringing Hands. This technique produces a seal "sit" (座) on the user's right hand that can suppress a tailed beast's influence over its host. This is done by producing wooden dragons from the ground that attach to the host and force the tailed beast's chakra to recede. Hashirama's necklace aided in this technique's execution, but its exact purpose was unclear. After Naruto destroyed the necklace, Yamato stated that he can no longer suppress the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's influence.

Franco-Americans are the largest ethnic group in Maine - nearly a quarter of the population. But until recently, a lot of information about them was unknown. That's starting to change. After months of gathering data and public meetings, a Franco-American task force established by the Legislature last year is documenting its findings and recommending some policy changes. Patty Wight has more.
Claire Poirier and Robert Poisson at a meeting in Lewiston of a task force dedicated to preserving Maine's Franco-American culture.
For the group's final public meeting, about a dozen Franco-Americans showed up at the Franco-American Heritage Center in Lewiston. They chatted in French as they waited for things to begin. Many said their biggest fear is losing their culture.
"I'm - I guess, the main concern is the loss of the French language among our next generation, and that's a sad thing," says Claire Breton. Breton, like many others, is curious about what the task force will recommend to preserve Franco-American culture.
She got some encouraging words from the chair of the task force, Republican Rep. Ken Fredette. "I really see the work here that we're doing as tranformational," Fredette said. "In a sense what I'm saying by that is that we've been in this state for 100 years, and I think really what we need to do as a community of Franco-Americans is to find our voice."
In the spirit of finding a collective voice, and then using it, the task force presented four recommendations. First: Require Franco-American history to be taught in school curriculums, just as Native American history was required about 10 years ago as part of statewide standards.
Second: Require Maine schools to track ethnicity. It's a simple idea, but Fredette says once a student is identified as Franco American, it helps track that student's performance in school. "That, I think, becomes the foundation, not only for our work now, but for the work in the future."
Recommendations one and two will both require legislative approval. But the third recommendation, one that Rep. Fredette thinks is particularly important, will depend on Franco-Americans themselves. It's to create an independent, statewide Franco-American Leadership Council, to unify the pockets of Franco-Americans across the state to carry on the work of the task force.
While the audience seemed generally supportive, the idea prompted 90-year-old Robert Poisson to blurt out this question: "Do you really believe that our children, or our granchildren, or our great-grandchildren will be having meetings like this?"
For a few moments, it left members of the task force was speechless. Poisson says all of his kids learned French growing up, but none of them speak it now. After some back and forth with the task force, he eventually found some hope from audience member Cindy Larock. She travels the state teaching traditional French-Canadian folk dancing to kids of all ages.
"I think that there is a lot of potential for other important parts of the Franco culture, which is the music," she said.
But another audience member - who didn't speak during the meeting - defied the perception of the young generation. "I mean, I've always associated myself as a Franco-American, or identified, I should say," says Timothy Stretton, a senior at the University of Southern Maine. He came to the meeting as part of a school project tracking his family's immigration to Lewiston.
Stretton says culture is important to him, though he's not fluent in French. "I'm taking French courses right now, so I'm working on it," he says.
The fact that Stretton is pursuing higher education represents the fourth, and final, recommendation from the task force. It found that fewer Franco-Americans hold a college degree compared to the rest of the population. Ken Fredette says the task force hopes advocates will work with Maine colleges and universities to attract more first-generation college students - from any ethnicity or background.
"Getting them in, and getting them the skills and the education that they need, I think can be transformational, not only for the Franco-American community, but for the future of Maine," Fredette says.
Higher academic achievement, says Fredette, will likely lead to better economic well-being. The task force will deliver a report on its findings and recommendations to the state Dec. 15.

And with Jewel, you can't use it with any SP gen SS since it drains all your SP next turn. That's the backbreaker.
It doesn't drain SP, turn 2 you only need to spend the 2 SP that is easily done by playing tidal and putting your falkow level to 4. It first sets your SP to 0 then the SS triggers.
Yes, you're going to play tidal on a freaking shade.
What was (maybe) needed was to decouple this unit from mediator SS. Instead, you can't do Jewel lost tome detonate to activate owl sage and drop deep squid on turn 3. You can't activate PoM SS with it. Shvara SS but that's freaking Shvara SS. In other words, there's basically no reason to use it above buncle mof anymore. Period. See, this is the difference between good balance (edge case of mediator SS preventing turn 3 level 3) and complete destruction of a valid opening.
And then we wonder why a game with great gameplay and the best art in a CCG/TCG aside from MtG can't get off the ground.
Crap like this would be why.

Associated Press Release
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida Gov. Rick Scott and most state legislators are getting their health insurance coverage from the state.
And for many of them it's not that expensive.
Scott is paying less than $400 a year for family coverage. That's the same amount that 107 out of 120 members in the Florida House are paying.
Florida's 40 senators are also covered by the state but this month they started paying the same as rank-and-file state employees. Career service workers pay $50 a month for individual coverage and $180 a month for family coverage.
Scott and lawmakers this spring will decide whether to extend health insurance to nearly 1 million Floridians as part of the federal health care overhaul.
House Speaker Will Weatherford agreed there were inequities in what state officials are paying.

A hemangioma (he-man-jee-O-muh) is a birthmark that most commonly appears as a rubbery, bright red nodule of extra blood vessels in the skin.
Sometimes called a strawberry mark, a hemangioma grows during the first year of life, and then recedes over time. A child who had a hemangioma during infancy usually has little visible trace of the growth by age 10.
A hemangioma can occur anywhere on the body, but most commonly appears on the face, scalp, chest or back. Treatment of a hemangioma usually isn't needed, unless the nodule interferes with vision or breathing.
A hemangioma may be present at birth, but more often appears during the first several months of life. It starts out as a flat red mark anywhere on the body, most often on the face, scalp, chest or back. Usually a child has only one mark, but some children may have more than one, particularly if they're part of a multiple birth.
During your child's first year, the red mark grows rapidly and becomes a spongy mass that protrudes from the skin. The hemangioma then enters a rest phase and, eventually, it begins to slowly disappear.
Half of all hemangiomas resolve by age 5, and nearly all hemangiomas are resolved by age 10. Although the color of the birthmark also fades, faint — but permanent — discoloration of the skin or residual extra skin may remain.
Your child's doctor will monitor the hemangioma during routine checkups. Contact your child's doctor if the hemangioma bleeds, forms a sore or appears infected.
A hemangioma consists of an abnormally dense group of extra blood vessels. It's not clear what causes the blood vessels to group together, although there may be a hereditary component involved.
Hemangiomas occur more often in:
Occasionally, a hemangioma can break down and develop a sore. This can lead to pain, bleeding, scarring or infection. Depending on where the hemangioma is situated, it may interfere with your child's vision, breathing, hearing or elimination, but this is rare.
A hemangioma is diagnosed based on appearance. Diagnostic tests aren't usually needed.
The majority of hemangiomas never need any form of treatment. Some parents feel that hemangioma treatment is necessary because the marks can be disfiguring and may cause social or psychological problems. Doctors, however, may be hesitant to treat a hemangioma that isn't causing physical problems because hemangiomas usually fade gradually without treatment, and because treatments have potential side effects.
If the growth interferes with your child's vision or causes other problems, treatment options may include:
Research to find other treatments with fewer side effects is ongoing. Some newer, though still experimental, treatments include beta blockers, interferon alfa and topical immune suppressants.
If you're considering treatment for your child's hemangioma, weigh the pros and cons with your child's doctor. Remember, most infantile hemangiomas disappear on their own during childhood.

WASHINGTON – Meet Wedgie. Despite his less-than-dignified name, this 5-year-old Tuxedo cat is quite the gentleman.
He's a real "lap cat" who loves human companionship and would enjoy nothing more than cuddling on the couch while watching a good movie.

Part of the application process is to present a portfolio. Here are some helpful hints to put one together.
What should you include?
It may be easier to start with what not to include . . . old work should not be considered since your most recent work will usually be your best. Try to choose from work done in the past year. At Memphis College of Art, we ask to see 10-20 examples. Think about quality over quantity! In other words, don't include more work for the sake of having a lot to show, but be sure you are showing your best work. We recommend not including any of the following: anime or cartoons, viking warrior men or women, tattoos, unicorns or other mythological creatures or any other overused imagery whether copied or original, copies from magazines or portraits of celebrities. This might be what you prefer to draw, but colleges look for a different type of original work. (Keep in mind, however, that nothing is absolute. If you are interested in illustration and want to submit one or two representations of work from reference material, limit this to one or two. The bulk of your portfolio should be drawing from direct observation.)
What is the admissions committee looking for?
We are looking for drawing from direct observation. This means looking at three-dimensional objects and translating that to the two-dimensional surface of your paper or canvas. Draw still lifes, portraits, self-portraits, landscapes or cityscapes from life. When you draw from a photograph, half of the work has already been done for you. The composition has been laid out and your values captured by the camera. It is important that you learn to visualize these things on your own. That's why we encourage drawing from life. You may also like to draw from your imagination, but again, we want to see the direct observational drawing to look at your ability to see and make the translation of image from life to your two- dimensional surface. It is more difficult to draw from life and may be frustrating at first, but as you strengthen your visual skills you will see a remarkable improvement. Self-portraits are a wonderful addition to your portfolio. You can be your best model. You are always available when you are ready to draw. Variety is important. Varied subject matter, media, scale, techniques, even working methods will show that you are not afraid to experiment with new ideas, techniques and materials. You should not be locked into a particular style yet. You will want to show some flexibility and diversity in your work. Add some work done in color. These along with your black and white drawings will really add strength to your portfolio. Although you do want to show variety, you do not want to do that at the sake of adding something in an unfamiliar medium. Do not show the first watercolor that you ever attempted. Practice will make you comfortable and more proficient in your media and techniques. Some of your pieces can be carefully rendered while others may be quick studies, contour line, or gesture drawings that take less time. Both are appropriate to include.
If you are considering a career in graphics, illustration, photography or another specific discipline, you may submit a few pieces from those areas. In graphics, where craftsmanship is so important, pay careful attention to your lettering, your layout and your design. The concept is just as important as the final pieces: both should be carefully executed. Illustrations often require working from reference material and not direct observation. Illustrators do work from photos to create images that a camera can't capture. This is one of those exceptions to the rule where your work may not be solely from life, but don't forget that the bulk of your portfolio should be.
Other important considerations:
Interesting subject matter with varying textures or focusing on and enlarging an area of a still life can lend interest as can cropping an object off at an unusual angle. Concentrating on a series can be interesting as well. It also shows an admissions committee that you can take a problem through several alternative solutions. You might explore the use of one subject with varied media or a series of one technique with varied subject matter.
Composition is important. Try to avoid the typical composition of an object stuck in the middle of the paper. Consider placement before you start your piece – don't leave it to chance. Do preliminary sketches or thumbnail sketches. From these sketches, choose the composition that you find most interesting. Letting your image run off the edges of the picture plane can break up the negative or background space. Be sure to show a full range of values in your drawings, whether you are drawing in black and white or color. It is important to show value contrast which is achieved by making shaded areas very dark and your lighted areas light. Consider your background as important as the imagery in your drawings as well. Don't just concentrate on the image and quickly throw something on the background to get it done.
What should I draw?
You should never lack for ideas about your art (what to draw or what to try next). Explore other artists' work by looking through current art publications such as Art in America, Graphis and by visiting galleries to see what contemporary artists are doing or by going to art museums and reading art history books to see what artists before you have done. This can be inspirational and you can apply some of these ideas to your own work.
Presentation of your work will speak of your craftsmanship and professionalism. It's like going on a job interview. You want to make the best impression possible. Take pride in your work and in how you present it. Keep it stored in a safe, clean place – not under your bed or in the attic collecting dust. A portfolio case can be purchased at any art store or you can make a case with two large pieces of cardboard taped together. Once you have made decisions about which pieces you plan to include in your portfolio, clean them up as much as possible. It is not necessary to mount, matt or frame your work.
Can I submit my work digitally?
Never give your work away or sell it without documenting it first. You can take digital images of your work and email them to us at email@example.com. Be sure to put your first and last name in the subject box. You can burn them to a disc or even save them to a flash drive. You may also include a description sheet detailing assignments and other information you feel the committee should know about each piece. Images of your work should focus on the work, not the background. Crop in as close to the work as possible. The best way to photograph your work is on a black cloth that covers a large space like a wall or chair. Place work out of direct sunlight, but in a light area. Be sure to take off any reflective covering of your work such as acetate or glass.
Three-dimensional work, sculpture, ceramics or any work that is not flat should also be submitted in digital format. You should include no more than two views of the same piece.
If you are attending a portfolio day, you will be required to provide the equipment necessary for viewing your digital work such as your laptop computer.

Adam Tuss, wtop.com
MERRIFIELD, Va. – Fairfax County is moving quickly on transportation projects, and the head of the county board of supervisors says it should pay off for commuters.
"There's a lot of very exciting, very innovative things that are under construction," says Sharon Bulova, standing on a bridge across the soon-to-open 495/Beltway Express Lanes.
Along with the newly announced 95 Express Lanes project, which will link up with the Beltway Express lanes as well as the Silver Line, Bulova sees true transportation choices for commuters.
"I feel strongly in the importance of multi-modal transportation solutions," she says.
When it comes to the 95 and Beltway Express Lanes, the plan is to have a network of fast-moving buses set up on the lanes that will, for the first time, offer predictable travel times for bus commuters.
Of course, vehicles that have three or more people will be able to use the lanes for free — and drivers with fewer than three people will be able pay a toll if they want the promise of a speedy trip in the lanes.
Bulova calls these projects a game-changer.
"This is bold, and I think we really are on the cutting edge of transportation," she says
The Beltway Express Lanes are scheduled to open in December. The Silver Line is expected to open late next year, and the 95 Express Lanes should be open in late 2014.

First of all, apologies to everyone for being a week late. For those who didn't see my message last week: Our Internet connection is via UHF LTE transmission. The LTE station that serves us has serious problems last week that prevented our uploading anything of any size. Everything was supposed to be working on Thursday, but when I left for the weekend on Friday noon, all still was down. Things appear to be working just fine again today.
With the 73rd Map of the Week we continue in the borderlands town of Óðinn's House in the Kingdom of Slovania. This week we take a look at arlota's House of Healing, the largest house of non-magical and non-clerical healing in Slovania. Its success is due largely to the number of adventures who go into the ruins of the Æsir Empire to the north and then return with serious injuries. However, adventurers with empty pockets need not go to arlota's; hers is a commercial adventure. Treatment is on the basis of cash only. The sizeable complex is a primitive version of a modern physician's practice with clinic and apothecary.
The building consists of a cellar, a ground floor and two upper stories. The cellar is a storage area. The ground floor houses rooms where the healers meet with patients who are not seriously ill or injured, the apothecary and a dining room and kitchen that serve both the staff and ambulatory patients making a convalescent stay in the house. The second story houses patients who need intensive care. The third story houses ambulatory convalescing patients.
The cellar is not usually illuminated. There is a hand torch in a sconce on the wall that can be lit and carried.
1. Stairs to the Ground Floor.
2. Well Shafts.
3. Chimney Bases. The chimneys can be cleaned here.
Ground Floor
The cellar is not usually illuminated. There is a hand torch in a sconce on the wall that can be lit and carried.
4. Entrance. The door to the left, leading to the stairway and dining area, always is locked. To gain entrance, one must go to the reception (Area 10).
5. Stairway to the Inpatient Stations.
6. Dining Area. Both staff members and ambulatory inpatients dine here. There also is a lounge area that ambulatory inpatients may use.
7. Kitchen.
8. Stairway to the Cellar.

10. Reception. The laborer Kazimir works this area and area Nr. 11.
11. Vendula's Room. The healer Vendula receives and treats ambulatory patients here.
12. arlota's Room. The healer arlota receives and treats ambulatory patients here.
13. Emergency Room. Non-ambulatory patients who are seriously ill or injured are given immediate treatment here by the healer Leo. After receiving initial treatment, they can be placed upon the bed in the small, enclosed room. This bed is a lift, which brings the bedded patient into intensive care on the second story. A hand crank and pulley system raises and lowers the bed lift.
14. Valentýn's Apothecary Shop. Customers can buy a wide variety of herbal remedies and medicines here. The herbalists Valentýn, Bruno and Evenie all take turns waiting upon customers.
15. Apothecary Laboratory. Under Valentýn's supervision, he, Bruno and Evenie make herbal medicines and remedies in the laboratory.
16. Stairway to the Cellar. Many of the herbal ingredients and potions that are used to make medicines are stored in the cellar.

Osama bil Laden may have been dead for years, but the very people who created him in the first place and used him as an excuse to execute the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York held off the announcement of his death until May 1, 2011 because timing the death of the #1 threat to the USA and the world must be worthwhile. Americans would not have announced Osama's death unless they could not have otherwise. With Obama's ratings going down the toilet and an election time around the corner, the moment was auspicious and this one time opportunity was seized. But what now? Now that the death of the #1 threat to the USA and the world has been officially eliminated – who will the Americans use to fearmonger the public with? If you take a look around, the answer will soon become clear – China.
I always used to think that there was no way a dumber politician than Barack Hussein Obama could possibly exist, but Hillary Clinton has been outdoing herself so much she wipes her ass with Obama when it comes to dumbness. It's kind of funny given that China happens to be America's biggest creditor, yet Hillary Clinton visits the country and yaps her low grade mouth, denouncing China for "human rights violations" and lack of democracy. And while she was in China, criticizing China for human rights violations, US Homeland Security sent their SWAT teams to crack down on and beat the shit out of peaceful student gathering by Western Illinois University. This peaceful street party which is held every year in a small town in Illinois did not involve rioting of any sorts. The police showed the students never the less (see the video at the end of the post).
So let me rephrase it – Hillary the dumb one Clinton goes to China to bitch about their poor human rights record, while American police beat, tazer, abuse and arrest anyone they want because they are no longer held accountable for their actions. Because America is under a "State of War", anyone can be arrested and held on sheer suspicion that they may be connected with the terrorist organizations. Human rights? Please!
China has been growing economically for years and that type of steady growth did not go unnoticed. Given their powerful military, close military ties with Russia (a country with immense nuclear potential, capable of wiping out the entire human race) and potential to become the strongest economy in the world within 5 years, China has become a new threat and now that Osama bin laden is dead, the US government is taking the advantage of the momentum to declare China the new threat to the USA and the world. In order to keep the gears of war turning, there must be an enemy. And if the enemy is eliminated, new one must be invented. Otherwise the gears of war stop turning and with it stop the billion dollar profits that the war generates for the privileged ones through lucrative contracts.
Funnily enough, regardless of how much Hillary Clinton yaps about China, the USA still owes them some $2 Trillion. If China decides to dump these assets, it would denominate the US dollar to a point that its exchange value would shatter, destroying the main source of country's power. Who'll be the last one to laugh then, Hillary?
Speaking of human rights violations that Hillary Clinton criticized China for – why would she not focus on violations of human rights of thousands of innocent civilians affected by US bombing in Libya? Why not worry about human rights of millions affected by the US war on Iraq and Afghanistan? How about human rights violations by the US military in Abu Ghraib or Guantanamo prisons? How about secret CIA prisons scattered around the world used to torture the victims? The USA should be the very last country to criticize another for their human rights violations.
But China has clearly been chosen. Turn on the TV and you'll hear something bad told about China at least once per hour. The brainwashing campaign to set up China as the new #1 threat to the USA and the world (to replace Osama Bin laden) is well under way. But try to explain this to your average Obama sheep. They went out in thousands to cheer after the alleged assassination of Osama bin Laden was announced by their master. They bow down and take the Obama cock right between their ass checks and thank him kindly for the privilege of fucking them right in the ass without lube. How could people be this blind to not see the forest for the trees? Ahh well, Obama sheep are our future, right? They are the young generation, the students, the youth. They are change we can believe in.

A water main break caused a sinkhole to open up on a street in Colorado Springs.
While police were trying to close down the road, a woman drove her truck into the 7-foot-deep sinkhole on Astrozon Boulevard.. The driver was not hurt, but did require a tow truck to get her vehicle out of the hole.
Water was initially out for about 100 homes in the area. Forty-two customers had service restored just before 7:45 Thursday night. Crews hope to have the rest restored by 8 a.m. Friday.
Astrozon Boulevard remains closed between Astrozon Circle and Nadine Drive.

Former Maine Sen. Peter Mills will serve in the post in the wake of the departure of long-time Director Paul Violette, who resigned under fire last week.
Former Republican state senator and gubernatorial candidate Peter Mills has been picked to serve as the new interim executive director of the Maine Turnpike Authority. The Maine Turnpike Board held a closed door session this morning.
Long-time Turnpike Director Paul Violette stepped down last week under fire for failing to document where he disbursed $157,000 dollars in gift cards.
The $157,000 was part of about a half a million dollars the authority spent on contributions and donations to outside organizations between 2005 and 2007.

I noticed this community is a lot nicer than others I've been apart of. I've even posted controversial posts/threads and still wasn't completely ostracized. The worst I experienced was Phenoca's insults, which influenced my departure from the forum for a week. For some reason, he thinks he's allowed to degrade me because we know each other.
I left previous forums because of the hostile environment. I don't agree with this "it's the internet" mentality a plethora of people use to enable online bullying. The internet consists of people who should have a sense of morality and polite social mannerisms that were ingrained into us by schools, guardians, and law.
Moreover, I think a large portion of online bullies are children who are oblivious to their own vile behavior. I was one of these people. It wasn't until my late teens and first-hand social experience that I was able to recognize my previous behavior and become capable of changing it. To this day I can't fully understand why I mistreated others, but it probably relates to how I was raised and what I was taught.
This internet generation is much different than previous generations; children need to be educated about the internet and how their behavior can affect others. Parents aren't enough and often times they don't know about the internet themselves. Therefore, I'd strongly support a mandatory educational class solely dedicated to teaching students about the internet. How it works, potential predators, how to stay safe, positive outlets, what to do if he/she feels suicidal/depressed because of imagery/comments, how his/her behavior can affect others and lead to severe repercussions mentally, physically, and legally, etc. It would also be beneficial if it taught the basic definitions of DDoSing, hacking, etc. and how to protect and prevent such occurrences.
Most, if not all, people will use the internet at some point in their lives. Better to start educating early to help prevent unnecessary victims.

Now we are a few days out from Sundays game. I've read hundreds of posts for and against, Brady, Welker, BB, Offense, Defense etc.. So after I've digested this I can only come with are we in it to win it, or just be real good?
So if everyone can agree BB is in charge I feel he should say to Mr. Kraft the following:
"Boss I run the team as coach, D coord, GM, I picked every coach, player, & ball boy. I have maybe the best QB of all time, but just can't seem to win the big one without that D I inherited 10+ years ago. With that said is being a really good team good enough?"

Food memories have become central to the stuff of culinary themed memoirs, lately.
I don't see the trend ending any time soon, either. Almost every major event in our lives is connected to celebrating with foods we love. It makes for great story telling and transports us across cultures and eras. Continue reading
