Went to Wisley and had a great time (apart from getting caught out in torrential rain when we first arrived, and having slightly squelchy feet for the rest of the visit). Didn't bother much with the Flower Show, but their orchards were absolutely spectacular - all the trees groaning with apples and pears. The borders still looked pretty special too.
I had to take a picture of this, just in case Verdun thinks he is the ONLY person who is growing it successfully:
Sorry Stacey - too many people around to dig a bit up for you. My other highlight was the hydrangea Vanilla Fraise - I have three, but had no idea that they might end up this size!
Congrats to Dove on becoming "Great". Welcome back to Matty and Potty - we had noticed it was getting a bit lonely on here. Matty, hope you are now feeling a bit better, and Potty - don't wear yourself out in the ffrst fortnight of term ! And Maud - get that washing machine ready
Hi Verdun I don't seem to have much luck with echinacea. have just planted a white one in new border but am not holding my breath for success.
What i really need are some mid-summer perrenials for it as it seemed a bit drab then
Drat! I thought I was the only one in the whole world able to grow wild swan. Ha ha. Well done Chicky....bigger than mine. I bow down to your superior ability. How lomg has yours been flowering? Do you like it? I think it's absolutely superb. I reckon mine has been in flower for past 5 months.

Oh no Gardengirl, I looked and now im wanting one as well - the first one, purple back instead of blue - must be nearly the same Stacey...
Night all.
Sounds like you are much more adventurous than me Stacey! Furthest for me was Canada and New York. I loved Canada, have some rellies there and spent the best 2 weeks there. Otherwise, Cran Canaria, Switzerland Turkey and France for me. I have to say, sitting on a warm beach would be nice right now (I'm cold at the mo )
Think I will avoid looking at this wild swan plant of which you speak, I will prob end up wanting one too!
Mrs garden I see even without looking you are talking of dreaming swan.... It doesn't flower for as long ..... I. Fickle I know!!!!!
Oops, I looked too. . . . very nice, and it's not like I don't have room . . .
Matty, white pinks? White malva? White Gaura (corries gold)? Coronaria alba? White Veronica? White liatris? White scabious? White honesty? All white, all white, I'll stop now.
Oh white-eo.
Was wondering about Veronica, Gaura too delicate, needs to be chunky as far corner of garden. Liatris may work.Hmm

Necromance -- Phillipsburg, NJ -- March 13th, 2005
Hey, well this week marks one year since my band's first two shows ever, so I figured I'd take this opportunity to provide a long overdue review of both gigs.
March 13th, 2005
Kate's Kafe - Phillipsburg, NJ
Our first show ever. We had been waiting to get a gig for almost 6 months since we formed in late September 2004. We did our best to get the word out and tell all our friends about it. At the time we really didn't have many "fans" being that we had never played live, had no real recordings, and like I said, had only been together for like 6 months at the time. Doors opened at 6:30 PM, and we were the first band on at 7:00.
Set List:
1.Losing Faith
2.Wicker Man (Iron Maiden cover)
3.The One
5.The Trooper (Iron Maiden cover)
6.We Will Rise
7.Comin Atcha Live (Tesla cover)
Overall, looking back, it was a nice first show. We got a great response from the somewhat impressive number of people we managed to drag to the show... especially since it was the farthest we've played from home yet in a year since then. I can't really remember any major mishaps in the show, though I know that back at that time we had a lot of room for improvement as a band.
Then there was a 5 day break, and then...
March 18th, 2005
Variety Night, Bethlehem Catholic High School
Yes, our second gig wasn't much in the way of a real gig, but we count it anyways. This was a Variety Night event at our other guitarist's former High School. We had only a 15 minute set, but the crowd was pretty decent in size, so we knew their was pressure involved, and we needed to make a strong impression.
Set List:
1.Losing Faith
2.We Will Rise
3.The Trooper (Iron Maiden cover)
As I remember, we had all our gear on stage, and right before they opened the curtain on us, our other guitarist's amp started giving him all kinds of problems. For a second I started shitting myself... I saw the whole element of suprise go down the drain... but luckily right as they opened the curtain's, he fixed the problem and we fired into our short set. Ah yes, I could tell we had really made our mark. We managed to get an incredible response from the folk in the audience. After we got off-stage we were flooded with positive feedback from various people. All in all, a good night... we celebrated with dinner afterwards.
So yeah, I figured since I wasn't even a member of this board at the time, and I've reviewed several of my band's past shows that I'd come on here and post reviews of our first 2 gigs... I can't believe that a year has gone by that fast. We've managed to play like almost a dozen shows (including opening for George Lynch and Overkill) and record a pretty decent demo CD since then... So yeah, enjoy.
Release a DVD set!
[QUOTE=DethMaiden]Release a DVD set!
I wish... since September 2004 we've accumilated a total of about 25 minutes worth of live footage... And basically no other sort of footage either... it would have to be a slideshow with music haha

If a spy doesn't send in an action in a timely manner then it is assumed that they vote for the mission to succeed. I'm sorry for not clarifying this earlier.
FireDragon7 hasn't posted for 2 weeks when they signed, so they will be replaced with RaceBandit.
Mission 3: Assassinate the Dictator
Now the Resistance has their most daunting mission yet. They need to begin creating disorder and panic throughout the empire. They decide that the next thing they must do is assassinate the empires leader. How it will be done, is up to the team leader, hamuka. There will be 4 people participating in the mission. This mission needs 1 failure vote to fail. Goodluck, you'll need it.
Mission 2 Results
The rest of the resistance team waits in anticipation for those participating in the mission. After a very agonizing four hours the team returns with some sensitive documents which appear to show detailed blueprints of various weapons. The mission was done stealthily which led to minimal casualties of the enemy. The mission was a success (four people voted success).
Mission 2 Vote 1 Status
Mission Proposal: Lebossle, occooa, Fogfun, FireDragon7
5 people voted Accept [Lebossle, Bluji, hamuka, Pulsaris, occooa]
1 person voted Reject [djrockstar]
2 people did not vote. [FogFun, FireDragon7]
The mission has been accepted.
Those participating in the mission may now proceed to private message me if needed.
Mission 2: Capture new technology
The Resistance group has been shaken by this treacherous act. They realized and expected spies in the lower ranks of the group but did not see one of the elite members being a spy. The Resistance decides the next mission will be to break into a different Imperial base, this is one that tests new and upcoming weapons tech. The object of the mission is to break in and steal some blueprints or piece of technology so the Resistance can reverse engineer it and make it themselves. The Empire's technology is far better then that of the Resistance, so doing this will ultimately help their missions in the future.
Lebossle is the team leader, and must choose 4 people to participate in the upcoming mission.
This mission needs 1 failure action to fail.
Goodluck, you'll need it.
Mission 1 Result
The mission to break in to a heavily guarded Empire Complex and download information on Operation Blackhawk has failed [2 votes success, 1 vote failure]. Everything went well in the beginning. The team successfully broke into the base without firing a single shot. The team made it to the terminal when the alarms began to ring. They shot at the incoming guards, but their ammunition had been replaced with rubber bullets by a spy! The team is forced to retreat and failed to gather the required intelligence.
The spies have been given 1 point.
Mission 1 Vote 1 Status
Mission Proposal: djrockstar, ocooa, Pulsaris
7 people voted Accept [Pulsaris, Fogfun, djrockstar, occooa, Lebossle, hamuka, Bluji]
1 person did not vote. [FireDragon7]
We'll start since the majority of you are ready
Mission 1: Gather intelligence
After months of rigorous training, recruitment, and background checks, you've done it. You have made it into the elite ranks of the Resistance. You have been carefully observing, waiting and preparing. This resistance group has slowly but surely been gathering information. No longer are the days where the base is raided and they have to scatter and start from square 1. Now they have quite the sophisticated base, and now is the time to act. You have received an anonymous tip that there is a new movement by the Empire, code-named Operation Black Hawk, that could be devastating to the Resistance, but details are few and far between. In this mission, you will attempt to break into a heavily guarded Imperial Base, download the information on Operation Black Hawk, and get out alive.
So how will you do this and who will go on the mission? That's up to the team leader to decide.
Pulsaris is the team leader, and must choose 3 people to go on the mission.
Good luck, you'll need it.
[Team leader order has been added to op]
All roles have been sent out. They were generated via random.org. Please confirm you received your roles in the thread and we'll start this baby.
Shameless bump
Also players that have already signed note that I've made some minor rule tweaks. The planning votes are now done publicly in the thread, and you cannot change them. Please reread the Planning phase.
I also added a slightly more comprehensive rule set, mostly common sense stuff like not cheating. This is in Rules and Other section.

Mission 1 Failed
Mission 2 Vote 1

1. All game communication should be within this thread, you may not pm any other player for game related purposes.
2. No Editing or deleting posts.
3. Rule #1
4. Each voting phase will take approximately 24 hours, though I am lenient. Please try to post at least once every couple of days. If you cannot, please do not join this game.
5. Your vote or proposal must be in bold or it won't count, also be aware you cannot change your planning vote. Be careful.
6. If there is any sort of dispute about gameplay/rules I get the final say.
7. By signing you fully and completely understand these rules, and if you intentionally or otherwise break them, you may be banned from this game as well as other games of mine.
In this game it is expected there will be active discussion. If you are inactive for an extended period of time you will be replaced.
In general I would like the Planning phase (per round) to take anywhere from 1-5 days (depending on the number of failed votes) and the Mission phase to take about 1 day.
At the beginning of the game you will be randomly assigned to the Resistance or as a spy of the Empire. There will be 5 Resistance members and 3 Spies. Spies will know the other members of their team but are now allowed to pm one another. Resistance members will not know anyone else's roles (like town in mafia).
The main gameplay is composed of 2 distinct phases
Planning phase: At the beginning of the game a team leader is randomly chosen. The team leader decides which players will participate in the upcoming mission (team leader can choose themselves). To make a proposal the team leader will post Proposal: player1, player2, player3 (including bold). To vote you will post Accept or Reject in the thread. After you have voted you cannot change it. If the team is denied, the role of team leader will move to the next person, and the planning phase will start over. If the majority approve, then the Mission phase begins.
Mission phase: Now the players chosen to participate in the mission will either try to help in its success or attempt to sabotage it and cause it to fail. If you are a Resistance member you automatically contribute to the missions success and don't need to take any action. However, if you are a Spy, you must pm me either mission success or mission failure. I will publicly state the results, however there is no way of knowing who exactly caused each individual mission success/failure. In general, if all the actions are success, the Resistance get a point. If there is at least one failure, the Empire gets a point. (Under most circumstances it takes only 1 failure action for the mission to fail, but I will state at the beginning of each round how many actions are need for success/failure).
Example: 4 people are selected by the team leader to participate in the mission. The planning phase gets a majority vote, so the team is approved. 2 of these people are resistance and the other 2 are spies. The 2 resistance members automatically contribute to the missions success. 1 spy pms me mission success. The other spy pms me mission failure.
Now I state that 3 people contributed to the missions success and 1 failure. In this case the spies gets a point.
The first team to three points wins.
Alternatively, the spies win if 5 planning votes are denied in a row. So at the 5th planning meeting the vote will automatically be approved and the mission will proceed.
A growing resistance movement has been gaining momentum in the empire, and they are about to strike.
The Resistance is a mafia-esque game in which the Resistance (an uninformed majority) try to launch missions against the Empire. However, some Imperial spies (informed minority) have successfully infiltrated the group and will do anything to prevent the Empire from crumbling. Only you will be able to decide the destiny or fate of the Empire.
The game has lots of mafia like elements (without the elimination) and discussion and activity is expected. For this first game I'm looking for 8 active forum gamers.
I highly recommend checking out this Wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Resistance_(game)

Baltimore Ravine gets Planning Commission approval
By: Bridget Jones, Journal Staff Writer
Residents share multitude of concerns at hearing
A plan to build hundreds of homes in Auburn moved forward after the Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve it, despite some residents' concerns. Two parts of the Baltimore Ravine Specific Plan and Study Area project were approved Tuesday night at an Auburn Planning Commission meeting. The Planning Commission was given the task of either approving or denying two parts of the potential development: the certification of the final environmental impact report and the large lot tentative map. The other parts of the project need to be approved by the City Council, and any Planning Commission approvals could be moot depending on the decision of the council. In a 4-0 vote the commissioners approved the two items and recommended approval of the project to the City Council. Commissioner Fred Vitas was absent. The entire Baltimore Ravine project is planned to include 725 homes, 90,000 square feet of commercial space and 143 acres of open space. Plan area 1 is currently proposed for development. This area calls for 270 housing units and 54.5 acres of open space. There is no current timeframe of when plan area 2 would come up for development. Baltimore Ravine is located between the westbound Union Pacific Railroad track to the south, Auburn-Folsom Road to the east and Interstate 80 to the north and northwest. It is approximately two miles from Downtown Auburn. The project is planned to have a main access point off Herdal Drive with secondary access through Werner Road on the northwest side of the development. Baltimore Ravine will also have an emergency access point through Perry Ranch Road. City staff and contractors made a report of several topics including primary access to the project, traffic and historical resources and sites. Issues of how city and county control of Indian Hill Road maintenance would affect increased traffic if the development were built out were discussed Tuesday night. Other topics from the hearing included any site surveyors possibly working with the Nisenan Native American people to make sure potential native sites were being preserved and construction workers being trained on what to do if historic artifacts were uncovered during development. Concerned residents also spoke about over-population in schools and a higher demand on Auburn police officers and firefighters if the development should be approved. Stephen Des Jardins, the developer for the project, said he thought only the impacts of Plan Area 1 should be considered Tuesday, because it is the only area currently up for development. Des Jardins said he was proud of the project, because of the support it had received from an environmental organization. "In my entire career I have never had a project endorsed by the Sierra Club," Des Jardins said. Mark Smith, an Auburn resident and former planning commissioner, said he had several concerns about the project, including the traffic it would create. Smith said he wished current traffic conditions had been studied during the afternoon just after schools were dismissed instead of for two hours in the morning and two hours in the late afternoon. "The traffic by the courthouse is almost stop and go (after school)," Smith said. Smith said he thinks the city needs to focus on repairing current problems rather than taking on a new development. "My true feeling is if you want to keep Auburn's small-town charm … I ask the Planning Commission to really take a close look at this project," he said. "I think we better take a look at what is broken in our community and fix it." Anyone who wants to know when the potential development will appear before City Council should call the Auburn Community Development Department at (530) 823-4211, ext. 3 and watch future editions of the Journal.

This view shows enzymes only for those organisms listed below, in the list of taxa known to possess the pathway. If an enzyme name is shown in bold, there is experimental evidence for this enzymatic activity.
Synonyms: hydroxycinnamic acid amides biosynthesis
|Biosynthesis → Secondary Metabolites Biosynthesis → Nitrogen-Containing Secondary Compounds Biosynthesis
Some taxa known to possess this pathway include : Nicotiana tabacum, Papaver somniferum, Solanum tuberosum
Expected Taxonomic Range: Embryophyta
Like hydroxycinnamic acid serotonin amides ( hydroxycinnamic acid serotonin amides biosynthesis), hydroxycinnamic acid tyramine amides belong to the larger group of N-hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCAAs). HCAAs are synthesized by the condensation of hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA thioesters and aromatic amines. The hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA thioesters include cinnamoyl-CoA, p-coumaroyl-CoA, caffeoyl-CoA, feruloyl-CoA and sinapoyl-CoA. The aromatic amines include tyramine, octopamine, tryptamine, serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline. The biosynthesis of HCAAs of tyramine is catalyzed by tyramine N-hydroxycinnamoyltransferase (THT).
Hydroxycinnamic acid tyramine amides are wide-spread in higher plants. They are frequently found insoluble constituents of the cell wall. Incorporation of hydroxycinnamic acid tyramine amides into cell wall is believed to enhance the efficiency of cell all to act as a barrier against pathogens by increasing the rigidity and decreasing the digestibility of the cell wall. In agreement with their proposed roles, the potato THT activity was shown increase upon pathogen (P. infestans) infection, and also increase in wounded tuber [Schmidt99].

The battle over Georgia's new sex offender law now turns to the Statesboro area.
The Bulloch County School Board voted to designate bus stops, and the sheriff there sent letters to sex offenders warning them they can't live within 1000 feet of bus stops.
A group against the law is now asking a federal judge to stop the plans.
Earlier, the same judge ordered Columbia County deputies to stop enforcing that part of the law.

Prism Break Barbie is a response and solution for girls who want to protect their data beyond just encryption. In less than 5 minutes, you can create a simple, discrete and TSA approved, non-threatening device to destroy hardware.
Prism Break Barbie is equipped with a 3-inch and .6 ounces concealed spring-loaded spike which can be activated by sitting the doll on any Smart phone, USB or hard drive or by a push/click of the hand. The spikes force when triggered will shatter the hardware.
1. Purchase Barbie or doll of your choice
2. Decide on a spike (I recommend a LifeHammer or ResQME)
3. Ductape or drill the the spike into place and you're ready to engage.
General attempts to preserve privacy among activist and hackers often can feel inaccessible for those with do not have extensive computer literacy or a background in programming. Security, especially at the hardware level is often expensive, complex, and layered in additional standards which can make it feel unapproachable. In the wake of revelations about PRISM, many are left wondering what they can do immediately. Answers are often fogged by politics and complex code based solutions. Although fluency in programming is becoming an important requirement to survive in a read-only society it is also not an immediately attainable standard.
Privacy has become a luxury only for the initiated. More so, education around it is often distributed within networks of programmers. Programmers are more often than not majority male populations. In parallel terms, surveillance indirectly forms part of the larger system of exclusion towards minorities and women. Mainstream political debates on surveillance are fixated on personal liberties of highly literate users rather than quick approachable cheap solutions for many.
Prism Break Barbie is about starting a conversation and awareness around the palpable consequences of surveillance and presents a solution for security based on combative humor, speed projects and attainability. Although encryption is perhaps the most effective means of data protection, Prism Break Barbie hopes to serve as conversation and starting point.
Prism Break Barbie will be on exhibition at PRISM BreakUp. Opening tonight, October 4th, at Eyebeam NYC.

Greetings and Salutations!
I'm an old-school gamer but a novice to map making. I made my original maps in the 80's by hand and they were quite terrible. In the mid 90's, I used MS Paint to redraw the world map and one regional map. Well, I finally decided it was time to make some city maps and better overland map... So here I am.
I tested out a few pieces of software and settled in CC3. Hoping to get some advice and critiques on my maps as I start to get them drawn.

Who funds the
Chemtrail program?
Best UFO Footage in Phoenix
What is Happening to our Moon?
This picture is taken by a facebook member
Trails in this website refer to the white smoke left by a passing aeroplane, it is more often refered as contrails. Trails can be produced by aerodinamic shape, like in a wing tip or tail tip. In scientific reference contrails usually refer to trails produced by the engine exhaust. Trails can also form by a smoke maker often used in acrobatic plane show. Chemtrails is trails that harm people and the environment.
Chemtrails is often referred as weather weapon because people often see how the weather turn worse after chemtrails dominate their sky. Other call chemtrails as bio weapon because they get sick everytime chemtrails dominate their sky.
Scientific references mentioned that trails warm the surface. Trails do not just stay in the line clouds formation and dissipate, trails often form thin clouds that span from horizon to horizon. This thin clouds create warming much greater than any greenhouse gasses. In an IPCC graph, the cloud from a contrails can heat the surface more than twice of carbon!
The particle that is responsible for the creation and visible property of contrail is sulfur. Scientist acknowledge that sulfur allow contrails to appear in a broader range of temperature of relative humidity related to ice. Sulfur allow contrails to show up even on normally non favorable condition. This sulfur also do great harm to the environment. Sulfur reported can induce drought, ozone depletion and acid rain. All are damaging to the environment and any living being on earth.
If there is extreme weather today, then it happen because of chemtrails. If climate change really happening today then it happen because of chemtrails. If global warming really happening today then it happen because of chemtrails. When the chemtrails spraying stop, there would be no extreme weather, nor climate change nor global warming.
Some bad effects of chemtrails are:
Government currently do not acknowledge the existance of chemtrails. US government do not even acknowledge the danger of contrails. Research for the effects of trails to the environment exists, most reported the bad effects of trails. But they do not reach the government. Ground vehicle have very strict emission regulation, but currently there are no regulation at all that limit the pollution made by air travel.
Even if we can not stop chemtrails right now, there is still a way. We can try to neutralize chemtrails by using the legacy of Wilhelm Reich. But please be very selective. According to Eva Reich, his daughter, Wilhelm Reich do not want to upset the weather. He do not wish for storm, tornado, lightning or other extreme weather phenomena. He create gentle rain with his orgone device. No one today can achieve the same with his cloud buster. Some people try to use the variation called orgonite. Orgonite was once a tool to calm weather, but not anymore. I found that today's orgonite is a device that will make the weather worse instead, this is based on claim that orgonite will worsen the weather when it cleans the chemtrails.
The other thing you can try is cemenite, which already been tried in South of Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. The range is very limited but the result after two year of implementation looks very promising. Calm weather and better plant growth is observed.

Adaptation of Old long ramp bars and Brifters, compact bars bend allows the continuation of a short ramp to extend to the brifter hood ,
If the set up is conscious of the design concepts.
Looks like it worked.
After dissing other's bikes, I figure it is my turn to be on the receiving end. Also, this thread is slipping off the front page. So without further ado, I present, in the most appropriate place for a commuter, my Sirrus:
For extra bonus points, I left indicators of the last time my son spent the day in my office
take off the dork disc and it's hot. this is one of the exceptions of me hating sloping top tubes. the top tube bag is pretty tiny, so i'll let it slide.
Dork disk??? If you need it, it's there. Otherwise, unless it hurts your feelings...........don't worry. The sun will still come up tomorrow.
Frame looks great, people that don't like sloping top tubes probably have legs long enough to ride the "right" sized bike. Not that it really matters.
If my feet are on the pedals, my butt on the saddle, my hands on the bars and.........it feels good. It's good. It doesn't matter how far away the pavement is.
Your Sirrus is a great looking bike and it seems that your son got the answer on your board.
Should have said........when you need it, it's there.
Am I the only person who doesn't notice dork disks? They don't bother me at all unless they're really grimy.
The dork disk is the plastic thing between the cassette and spokes. Completely unnecessary if your bike is set up properly.
I heartily concur, I think it should be a fun and tongue-in-cheek mix of real aesthetics and points for fenders, bells, horns, racks, and functional Fredly-ness.
Okay, this one isn't mine, and I actually feel kind of bad sharing it, but it's too rich not to. Spotted in the rack at work:
The funny thing is, they just added the rack in the last week or so. I was actually checking out this bike a few weeks ago, trying to figure out what vintage it was, as I liked the looks of the frame, basically because of the triangular shaped down tube. I've only seen that on some Marins before and coveted those as well. And then they had to mount that rack like that!
I'm tempted to leave a note on it, explaining how they could rectify or mitigate the mounting!

Everyone hates your lights. Throw them away & buy something civilized.
Good rack (like the attachment points for bungees, overlooked on a lot of racks), good trunk, like the bar ends. I'm not a fun of computers myself, but to my mind, it speaks to being serious about cycling. Not that one can't be without it, mind you! Just that it is an indicator that the rider probably is.
I too, usually don't aesthetically like sloping top tube bikes, but something about the design and size of this one is okay. I'll actually give you points for the shot as well, it's not a scenic picture, but it is at work, framed interestingly, and your kids contribution is a nice touch.
What's the little pouch just behind the stem? Battery box for front light?

I'm betting the guy didn't tighten the bolts on the rack enough before putting a load on it, then it slid back as far as it could.

Author: Kessel, Rick
Date published: January 1, 2012
Language: English
Journal code: JZZD
It's an amazing world of jazz we live in today - if we want to see Dizz play, we click our keyboard and there he is, performing in our living room. If we want to buy a new horn - click a few keys and it will arrive at our doorstep in a couple of days. If we want to have a band to jam with, well then: grab an accompaniment disk and off you go. Today, many of us - and our students - take all of these wonderful technologies and educational opportunities for granted. However, as we know, it wasn't always like this. Not so long ago, musicians who were interested in jazz had to seek out fellow artists or local bands who would allow them the opportunity to sit in, often late at night, with their groups and learn a few tunes. Imagine Jamey Aebersold's dismay when he was coming up in the ranks and, like many others, found that many top music schools didn't teach saxophone... it's extremely difficult to fathom this today. Jamey's foresight, along with that of a few other key visionaries, managed to ignite a spark that changed the way the jazz world educates its students.
Mr. Aebersold is quite the Renaissance man. Not only is he an accomplished jazz musician, composer, educator, and saxophonist, but he's also managed to build and run a successful business over several decades. This in itself would be a tremendous life accomplishment, especially when considering that Aebersold competes against some many much larger, more highly capitalized companies. However, he picked his niche, and it's one that he knows extremely well. At the University of Louisville, where the jazz department now bears his name, "The Jamey Aebersold Jazz Studies Program was one of only a few prestigious institutions in the United States selected to participate in an international music exchange sponsored by the Open World Leadership Center at the Library of Congress" according to the school's Website. There are few people, who, after all of their success, can still be seen at numerous conferences and educator events, sitting down oneon-one with a young student who is looking for some guidance, but Jamey's dedication to the art and his willingness to "pay it forward" shows his big heart.
On a similar note, the JEN organization has put together a dazzling program in Jamey's home turf, at the Gait House in downtown Louisville. This nascent organization, only in a few years of existence, has organized a collection of performances and clinicians to make any jazz educator or aficionado feel like they've died and gone to heaven. Some of the highlights include Ken Peplowski and Shelly Berg, Jason Marsalis Group, Alan Baylock Orchestra, Ernie Watts with the US Army Jazz Ambassadors, as well as numerous other prestigious professional, high school and college groups. My hat is again off to my fellow JEN Board members who have poured their love, passion, and tremendous effort into making this conference become a reality!

Every year the U.S.A celebrates a federal holiday called Columbus Day. A federal holiday is a day where most people get o ff from work and many government agencies are closed. I think we should celebrate him because in 1492 when he set sail with his three ships he made a huge impact on history in the New World. So here is the big question in the social studies world should we or should we not celebrate Columbus Day?
People say that he brought everything bad like sickness, witch he did but he did not even know. He actually gave the people of the new world better technology and life like the wheel, armor and the spinning wheel. Also people say all he brought was war and that is why we should not celebrate him. If we do not celebrate him because of war why should we celebrate the 4th of July? These are similar because they where both wars and people got killed and we still celebrate the 4th of July. Last thing he brought was new foods to the Europeans and to the new world he brought foods and also brought trade. The foods that he brought to the Europeans where corn, potatoes and many more staple crops. The fact is we do not celebrate the losers we celebrate the winners and exploring and settling the New World. His voyage helped start European exploration and settlement of the New World.
I hope I convinced you that we should continue celebrating Columbus Day. Not everything he brought to the New World was bad. He brought many good things to the natives and started a new economy with trade from the New World to Europe. His exploration of the New World is the reason that we are here today, and that is why we should celebrate it.

Local Social is getting a lot of press these days -- as with any growing marketing channel, the use of social platforms brings questions and concerns about where companies should allocate their efforts and budgets.
So -- how do you know when you should jump on the local social bandwagon, whether you are a Yellow Pages publisher, a small business owner, or a directional media marketer? Your decisions in this -- and the many growing digital advertising options -- should be guided by high-quality research from reliable sources.
Not all research is created (or reported) equal.
For example -- here is a quotation from a recent Wall Street Journal blog:
Of those (businesses) engaging in social media for business purposes, 28% have a company Facebook page, 18% have a company LinkedIn page or group, and 8% have a company blog.
Don't be fooled. This does NOT mean that 28 percent of businesses have a company Facebook page. It only means that 28 percent of those businesses who engage in social media for business purposes, have a Facebook page.
A good first question would be, "What percentage of small businesses engage in social media?"
These people offer a cornucopia of statistics with a wide range of results. ; these people say 81 percent engage; and these people bemoan that only 37 percent are socially engaged.
A good follow-up question would be,"Of those small businesses who engage in social media, what percentage do so for business purposes?"
Now, those numbers are harder to find. But, let's say (for the sake of illustration) that 40 percent of small businesses engage in social media, and 40 percent of those do so for business purposes. If those hypoethetical numbers were correct, that would mean that 16 percent of small businesses engage in social media for business purposes. Now, take 28 percent of that hypoethical 16 percent, and you would have about 4.4 percent of small businesses with a Facebook page.
At the end of the day, that number may not even be statistically significant!
The take aways? There are two:
- Question Authority. Dave Goddard, our lead analyst for Simba Yellow Pages, had a previous career as a tough-as-nails newspaper editor and publisher. Whenever an ambitious reporter brought him a story loaded with "facts," Goddard would ask, "And who's your source?" It's a good question. Learn to ask it. And pay attention to the answer.
- Develop Reliable Sources. You are faced with mission-critical strategic choices in this ever-changing market. Thinking that 28 percent of small businesses have a Facebook page, when in reality that number is much much smaller, could lead to your making bad decisions, allocating resources inappropriately. Those bad decisions could mean lost profits and opportunities, they could lead to unnecessarily lost jobs and income in the communities you serve.
Of course, at some point, you have to trust someone. Just be careful, ask questions, and choose wisely.

12 Reasons to LOVE EggsKelsey Banfield
Last month when I went to Portland Oregon with Jennifer as part of the Good Egg Farm Tour I learned a lot about eggs. After an engaging conversation with the knowledgeable dietitian Mary Dankersloot I knew much more about the health benefits of eggs then I ever thought possible. Following her talk we participated in a fantastic cooking class with Howard Helmer and Chef Saad, concentrating specifically on making egg dishes that were healthy and flavorful. My take away from this whole experience was that the egg is indeed a fantastic food. Its health benefits are enormous and it perhaps one of the most economical foods available in the grocery store. Here are a dozen reasons you too should LOVE eggs:
1. Protein Power: Eggs are all natural and one of the highest quality proteins available, providing all night essential amino acides.
2. Breakfast Boost: Research show that eating high-quality protein foods for breakfast, like eggs, can help you and your family feel more energized and satisfied through the day. The benefits of eating breakfast also include improved memory recall time, improved grades and higher test scores.
3. Eggs are Economical: At just .15 cents each, eggs are the least expensive form of high-quality protein per serving in today's marketplace.
4. Eggs are A-OK for your Heart: More than 30 years of research have concluded that healthy adults can enjoy eggs without significantly impacting their risk of heart disease.
5. Eggs are Quick to Cook: Eggs can be made as quickly as a pancake, waffle or bowl of hot cereal!
6. Good for Infant Development: Eggs are an excellent source of choline, an essential nutrient that is particularly important for developing fetuses and infants. Pregnant women can help reduce the risk of certain birth defects and promote brain and memory development by getting enough choline in their diets.
7. Eggs Pack a Punch: One egg has 13 essential vitamins and minerals in varying amounts. And they only have 70 calories (!0
8. Weight Loss Results: High-quality protein, like the protein in eggs, can help overweight dieters lose weight. Recent research show that eating eggs for breakfast can help overweight dieters lose more weight, lower their body mass index and shrink their waist more than eating a bagel breakfast of equal calories.
9. Eggs-cellent Vision: Lutein and zeaxtanthin are two antioxidants found in eggs that may help prevent macular degeneration, a leading cause of age-related blindness.
10. Egg-Energy: The protein in eggs provides steady and sustained energy because it does not cause a surge in blood sugar or insulin levels, which can lead to an energy crash.
11. Essential Nutrient: Choline, an essential nutrient found in the egg's yolk, is necessary for normal cell activity, liver function and transporting of nutrients throughout the body. One egg provides 125 milligrams of choline, or roughly one-quarter of the recommended daily amount for adults.
12. Perfect Portions: At 70 calories apiece, eggs are nature's original form of portion control!
Thanks to the Good Egg Project of providing this well-researched information.
Here are some of our favorite egg recipes:

- Chili Lime Deviled Eggs
- Pizza with "Fried" Egg
- Eggs with Legs!

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are engaged to be married! The new parents of daughter North West got engaged Monday night, after the first-time dad used a Jumbotron screen to propose to his love.
It all went down at AT&T Park in San Francisco, where friends and family of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star were gathered for the private event. A source tells Us Weekly, "He projected please marry me onto the stadium screen for everyone to see," though a shot of the giant-sized message actually reads "PLEEEASE MARRY MEEE!!!"
Triple E's are serious business.
Just after the proposal, Kim Kardashian's hairstylist caught a snap of the newly engaged couple. Clyde Haygood posted a picture to Instagram Monday night, writing, "Guess what just happened!! #kimye"
Expressing excitement for her sister, Khoe Kardashian tweeted, "Wow!!!!! Am I dreaming??!?!…Tears of JOY!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!"
Earlier this year, North West's mother talked about the possibility of marrying Kanye West, sharing, "It's something that we talk about, but I think it's just right now (we're) focusing on the baby. I was always such a planner, and… you think your life is going to be a certain way, and the best surprises just happen when you don't plan."
By all accounts, Kanye West's proposal was indeed a surprise for Kim Kardashian, just as his mid-concert announcement of their pregnancy news was in December 2012. If it's expecting the unexpected she wants, it looks like she's found the perfect guy.
My own marriage proposal was without a Jumbotron's help, with my husband dropping to his knees to ask the big question at the beach near my parents' house. The part of the story that's told most often, however, is about earlier in the day when my beau popped by their home to ask permission. Overrun with nerves, he took to petting their Golden Lab with vigor, and by the time the conversation was over had amassed an impressive pile of dog hair on the floor!
Care to share your proposal story with us?
Kim Kardashian recently opened up about her post-baby slim down. Here's a look at her pregnancy days and progress since welcoming North West in June:

The time is rapidly approaching when every community of any size or importance must have adequate hospital facilities to take care of all the sick in the community; but this is not the case to-day. There are many communities of importance and considerable population whose hospitals, when they have any at all, are wholly inadequate to take care of the needs of the community in accordance with the modern demands of medical science. This means that in such communities the medical profession is far in advance of the hospitals. The grave responsibilities of the physician will not permit him to allow a condition of this sort to prevail if he can help himself, and thousands of most excellent physicians and surgeons in this country to-day are casting about for some scheme by which they can give to their patients modern surgical and medical attention.

I just mounted a set of Vittoria Corsa Evo CX's, and I love these tires. The ride is like nothing I've experienced before. BUT... The front tire in particular is making a distinct ticking noise, one per revolution, that gets louder as I go faster. Extremely annoying. The sound appears to correspond with a bit of a hop in the tire (it's definitely NOT in the wheel) near the valve stem.
The rear tire exhibits the same hop in about the same location, but doesn't seem to make the same sound, or if it does, it's much less noticeable.
Any ideas about how I might quiet down these otherwise marvelous tires?

Two men were arrested Wednesday afternoon on theft charges after leading deputies on a chase through a hay field and vineyard, according to the Madera County Sheriff's Department.
Steven Lovelady, 53, and 51-year-old Anthony Rodriguez, both of Madera, had been alluding authorities for weeks and were wanted in connection with a number of thefts, including copper wire, sheriff's spokeswoman Erica Stuart said. According to reports, Lovelady was on parole for arson and Rodriguez for narcotics.
The pursuit started on Cronin Street in Parksdale near Avenue 13.
Ag crime detective Adam McEwen spotted Lovelady pulling out of a house on Cronin and started to follow him. When he attempted to pull Lovelady over, Lovelady took off, Stuart said...

Doing Business with Open Source
Open source communities provide real options for corporations seeking to improve systems design, development, and support. Yet they function quite differently than working with other sources of software, at best innovative, cost effective and fun, at worst ornery, confusing and unreliable. This class develops solutions to practical problems facing companies, large and small, as they understand and navigate the complexities of actively participating with open source communities. Building on principles of public sharing, collaboration, and corporate learning, this class focuses on why and how corporations participate with open source communities.
The class will consist of a small number of lectures, cases and guest lectures from people conducting open source strategy in firms, large and small. Participants will be encouraged to bring specific situations for the class, instructors and guests to workshop.
Target Audience
This course is focused toward both technical and managerial audiences. Perhaps the ideal would be a pairing of senior developer and manager with strategic responsibilities from a single company, although a single participant from either position will gain broad understanding as well.
Learning Outcomes
After taking this course, participants will:
- Understand the organization, motivations and dynamics of open source software projects
- Understand management structures and risk management techniques (especially license compliance and copyright) for participation in open source
- Develop a management plan for their company's participation with open communities, both existing communities and how and when to found a new community based on the company's software.

< Medpac
this wiki
A medpac (also spelled med-pack or medi-pack[2][3]) was a small first aid kit that contained limited-utility diagnosis equipment and other essential medicines for the treatment of wounds. Medpacs could also be called health packs.[4]
A medpack usually contained diagnostics such as medisensors and also could provide flexclamps,[2] synthflesh,[2][3] irrigation bulbs,[2][3] bacta, kolto, spray-bandages, bacta patches, spray hypos, bone stabilizers, antiseptics, medical drugs, coagulants,[1] stimulants such as stim-shots, and other essential medicines for the treatment of wounds.
They were standard-issue for Imperial stormtroopers and were the standard method of treating minor injuries or providing crisis care in the civilized portions of the galaxy.
A medkit was a bulkier variant used aboard starships.
During the era of the Old Republic advanced medpacs were also frequently available. These kits contained a more extensive array of equipment, than the standard medpac, for the treatment of serious wounds. Furthermore, in rare instances, a life support pack was obtainable at some of the more exclusive traders. This item contained highly advanced dermal regenerators and other necessary medical equipment for the treatment of life-threatening wounds.
