I was looking for a high quality runner to go with my area rug. I found what appeared to be the right one on RUGS USA website. I purchased it at a great price and it's PERFECT. Thank you RUGS USA.......Gordon
I have 4 different colors of this rug. I like the very first one I bought which is Beige/Ivory. You can no longer get that so I ordered Ivory/Beige. It is darker than my first rug and doesn't match well so I ordered the Beige rug. That rug is darker still but the other colors are prettier than the Ivory/Beige. I also have the Ivory/Ivory which is kind of dull, but I needed a lighter look for my foyer. The rugs are well made and look nice.RECOMMENDED: Yes!
I bought a small rug to match the larger rug I have in my dining room. I like the colors in the Ivory/Beige rug, but I don't see that listed as an option. I bought the Beige/Ivory rug thinking it would be the same, but the colors are much darker. It looks nice in my kitchen, but I will have to order another rug for my other room, probably the Ivory/Ivory.RECOMMENDED: Yes!

LOS ANGELES (AP) — CBS says "The Price is Right" is planning a milestone birthday celebration for former host Bob Barker.
Barker will celebrate his 90th birthday with an appearance on the game show in December, the network announced.
He retired as host in 2007 after 35 years with "The Price is Right."
The show also will pay tribute to Barker's longtime animal activism by featuring pet adoptions during the week of Dec. 9-13.
Barker made headlines earlier this month after spending $1 million on elephants, saying he plans to spend his money on causes he cares about while he can still enjoy it and plans to "die broke."
Barker will be on "The Price is Right" on his birthday, Dec. 12, and will present a special showcase to mark the occasion, CBS said.
"The Price is Right," with host Drew Carey, airs weekdays at 11 a.m. Eastern.

Larry Roller's '32 3-window coupeWritten by on September 12, 2007
We first caught a glimpse of Larry Roller's immaculate '32 3-window coupe at the Goodguy's Hot Rod Nationals where it was a runner up for the Goodguy's Hot Rod of the Year Award. That close running not withstanding, Larry's still a winner in our book! His aircraft-inspired coupe won a Top 100 award at the Lone Star Nats for it's wicked chop, perfect stance, and overall use of some very trick parts.

On line practice test.
Has anyone done the practice tests at www.prenhall.com/london? This is an on line study guide for the book. Are the questions anything like the test?

Online practice tests
Any resource can be beneficial for studying for the exam, but be aware that these tests will not be anything like the CPP exam. The CPP exam is written by professional photographers for professsional photographers. It is a little different approach than an academic takes. I would certainly skip any of the test questions on history and chemistry. These things do not appear on the CPP exam.
If you do not already have them I would recommend going to www.certifiedphotographer.com and downloading the sample questions. These will give you a good idea of the difference between the Prentice Hall exam questions and the CPP exam questions.

I've done most of the practice quizzes from the book (aside from those for Ch. 17 -- I'll be completing those soon). While not necessarily a good representation of the questions that will be on the exam, you can get an idea of which sections of the text (e.g. what topics) you need to work on.
I'm taking the Certification Exam in October... so I can't speak as someone who's already taken the test. But, I will say that the quizzes do a good job of showing me my problem areas.
One thing to keep in mind is that some of the questions (I can post which ones if you want) tell you that the correct answer is wrong -- this happened for maybe 1/10 of the questions, if that. So if you think you're right - check the "hint" page in the book -- you may very well be. And, if you're wrong, at least you'll be able to understand what is the correct answer.
Here's a link to the thread about "previous exams" -- you may find it helpful -- although specific answers and questions aren't given, you should be able to get a better idea of the composition of typical questions and what sorts of things are important.Betsy Finn, Cr.Photog., CPP

Crunchy Caramel Popcorn, Savory Goat Cheese Scones, Cheddar Olives, Strawberry Gin Smash, Mexican Margarita & Baked Spring Risotto
New Recipes from The Kitchn
Is it 5:00 yet? Because the drinks and snacky bites from this past week are looking mighty tempting. I'm thinking those real Mexican margaritas would go mighty fine with a handful of cheddar olives. A coupe glass with that pretty Four Bitters Cocktail would also be excellent company for our radicchio salad with red quinoa and avocado. Or go full-on springtime with a strawberry gin smash and a plate of risotto studded with asparagus spears. And a bowl of caramel popcorn for dessert. Bring on cocktail hour!

In early stages of planning an Antelope hunt for 2013. We have a group of 4 guys each with 1PP.
This will be our first western hunt, so the usage of public land and public access is a new concept.
Would like to stay on the free public land, and am trying to do my homework to avoid accidentally tresspassing somewhere I shouldn't be. Its all a bit discouraging when ~half the antelope units are marked with an (*) for difficult public access.
Can somebody explain the differences in all these types of government property?
BLM, Bureau of Reclamation, Bankhead Jones, Corp of Engineers, DOE, Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, State and Nat'l Grasslands?
Are these all open to the public? Are the access/hunting rules different depending what type of land it is?
Also, can somebody take a brief stab and explaining 'public access'?
Is this as simple as if there is a county road heading into the BLM, then thats considered legal public access?
More directly, if a country road cuts through private property to reach BLM, is it okay to travel that country road to get there?
Trying to figure out if a piece of BLM is surrounded by private, what the proper legal access is to the public property?
Surely there has to be some kind of easement or 'right of way' to get there?
My understanding is using two-tracks in BLM is fine, but using two-tracks crossing private land is not fine.
What actually qualifies as a public road versus a private road?
Thanks for the information. Still learning how this all works.
Any suggestions for a first time WY antelope unit apprecaited.

Any cons why I shouldn't jump ship at this point?
Ive got both, and I cant think of any reason. I use a Tivo Premier (bought the cheap one and upgraded the internal drive myself, then got lifetime DVR on it). PQ is good, channel selection is good, and the two year price lock in is great if you get the Digital Preferred.
Just remember they will charge you extra (or they do here, not sure about there) for the cablecard/HD. Its $8.50 per cablecard here for HD in addition to the package deal price.

"The analysis of air bubbles from ice cores has yielded a precise record of atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, but the timing of changes in these gases with respect to temperature is not accurately known because of uncertainty in the gas age-ice age difference. We have measured the isotopic composition of argon in air bubbles in the Vostok core during Termination III (~240,000 years before the present). This record most likely reflects the temperature and accumulation change, although the mechanism remains unclear. The sequence of events during Termination III suggests that the CO2 increase lagged Antarctic deglacial warming by 800 ± 200 years and preceded the Northern Hemisphere deglaciation."

Story by Ruth Kim.
Traditional Korean gayageum player Luna Lee is one step away from winning ESPN's SportsCenter's Fan Jam contest.
The "Fan Jam" contest challenged participants to come up with the best original cover of its iconic "da-da-da, da-da-da" opening theme song. The competition began with eight contestants who showcased a variety of talents, from solo electric guitar to beat-boxing.
Lee, who iamkoream.com featured in a Video of the Week playing Jimi Hendrix, is going head-to-head against acoustic guitarist Trace Bundy. The winner will receive a trip to ESPN headquarters in Connecticut to perform as its "house band" for the day. Voters, who can vote for their favorite cover until Thursday on the SportsCenter Facebook page, determine the winner.
Although both musicians play acoustic instruments, the distinctive sounds each have their own merit. The extremely technically-skilled acoustic work exhibited by Bundy is clean, classic guitar playing at its finest with virtuoso-like finger-tapping. However, the unique and authentic sound of Lee's gayageum, a 12-string Korean zither, accompanied by a rock-and-roll track, holds its own in the competition.
Lee released her eponymous debut album, featuring music by Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix, in November. Check out her YouTube channel here.

ARNOLD, Md. (WUSA9) -- A bicyclist was flown to the hospital after a car struck her on Ritchie Highway in Arnold, Md., say police.
Police tell us at approximately 2:29 p.m. Monday, Susan Hahn was biking south on Ritchie Highway, just south of Jones Station Road, when she attempted to turn left across the northbound lanes of Ritchie Highway and into a nearby shopping center. Police say as she waited to cross traffic from a dedicated turn lane, traffic in two lanes stopped to allow her to cross, but as she crossed a third lane she was struck by a 2013 Hyundai Sonata.
According to police, drugs and/or alcohol were not factors in the crash nor was speeding or traveling in a negligent manner on the part of the driver.
Police say the primary cause of the collision is Failure to Yield Right of Way on the part of Hahn.
Hahn was flown to Shock Trauma where she was admitted with multiple injuries.

text: Home Politics Deciphering the Sequester New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow traces the roots of the latest financial crisis and how America reached this controversial place, right on schedule. By: Charles M. Blow Posted: Feb. 24 2013 12:01 AM 0 Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images During the ever-evolving battle between President Obama and Republican John Boehner, New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow weighs in on the latest financial crisis, the sequester. But I'm not sure where all this you-are-the-father origination blame game gets us. The bill got bipartisan support in the House and at the time Boehner bragged: "When you look at this final agreement that we came to with the White House, I got 98 percent of what I wanted. I'm pretty happy." And President Obama signed it. None of this changes the fact that the sequester is still bearing down on us, and it still holds horrible consequences that we didn't think we'd be facing. Now we are stuck in a vicious fight about what, if anything, can be done to prevent it and protect an economy that is just beginning to emerge from the muck. According to the Bipartisan Policy Center, "Our estimate of approximately one million lost jobs due to sequester remains our base case if a full sequester occurs as scheduled on March 1." So once again the American people are caught in the middle of a game of chicken between Democrats, who rightly warn that the sky could fall, and Republicans, who want to burn the coop.

Libya: Ensure Political Isolation Law' Respects Rights
|Human Rights Watch

|Cite as
|Human Rights Watch, Libya: Ensure Political Isolation Law' Respects Rights, 22 January 2013, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/510261022.html [accessed 31 May 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
A draft law being prepared in Libya to bar Gaddafi-era officials from holding public office and senior posts should exclude only those who held carefully defined senior positions, or who are alleged to have committed specific acts. Anyone accused of past wrongdoing should be allowed a fair chance to rebut the charges.
"After decades of dictatorship and corruption, Libyans understandably want to ensure that their new leaders do not include people who were involved in past abuse," said Fred Abrahams, special adviser at Human Rights Watch. "But bans on public office and senior positions should be based on provable misdeeds, and not a general association with the former regime."
A committee in Libya's parliament, the General National Congress (GNC), is expected to present a draft of what is being termed the "political isolation law" on January 23, 2013. Public pressure has mounted in recent weeks for parliament to exclude people whom many Libyans see as unwanted remnants of the Gaddafi era.
Human Rights Watch urged the committee drafting the law and the congress to take due time when considering this important piece of legislation, and to consider how it would fit into and complement Libya's larger process of transitional justice.
"This law requires time and careful consideration to make sure it respects human rights and serves Libya's need for justice after dictatorship," Abrahams said.
Any new law should define explicitly which positions under Gaddafi and which past acts warrant exclusion from public office, and for how long, Human Rights Watch said. Vague terminology, if used, will open the door to using the law for partisan political purposes.
It is also critically important for the new law to provide for a fair and transparent process, Human Rights Watch said. Anyone accused of past human rights abuses or misconduct should be able to see the evidence against them and have a fair opportunity to refute the charges.
Those who face accusations under the law should have the right to challenge a ban in a timely manner before an independent body, Human Rights Watch said.
If the new "political isolation law" fails to meet these standards, it would violate Libya's constitutional law. Article 6 of Libya's Constituent Covenant affords all Libyans "equal civil and political rights" and "the same opportunity" without distinction on grounds of "religion, belief, language, wealth, sex, kinship, political opinions or social status; or on tribal, regional or personal association."
It remains unclear how the draft law will address the already existing Integrity and Patriotism Commission, formed in April 2012, which is charged with vetting all senior government and security officials, members of congress, and the heads of trade unions, universities and other public institutions. Human Rights Watch has previously criticized the commission's vague and overly broad criteria.
The Integrity and Patriotism Commission has already barred dozens of people from various posts, including 11 elected members of the General National Congress, although some of these people are challenging the decision in court.
If the Integrity and Patriotism Commission continues to exist, congress should amend its regulations with narrower and more precise criteria on which to base prohibitions, Human Rights Watch said.
International law requires Libya to allow all citizens the right to hold political office without discrimination based on political associations. As a state party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), Libya is required to allow its citizens equal opportunity to participate in political life, without discrimination or "unreasonable restrictions." The African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, also ratified by Libya, requires states to ensure that every citizen has the right to participate freely in the government of their country.
Countries such as Libya, that suffered under dictatorship and are struggling to build democratic societies, have a legitimate concern that these efforts could be undermined by people whose past conduct reflected the criminal, repressive, or corrupt character of those dictatorships, Human Rights Watch said. There is, therefore, some justification for restricting the political rights of certain people associated with the previous dictatorship at the very beginning of the transition process.
But the process should reflect respect for individual rights enshrined in Libyan and international law. Restrictions should be based on clear criteria set out in law and be proportionate, rather than a general prohibition on all political activity.
"Libyan legislators have an important opportunity to ensure that any exclusions are on a case by case basis, using explicit criteria and through a fair process," Abrahams said. "The victims of past abuses should be honored with new laws that fully adhere to human rights.

ST. CLAIRSVILLE - St. Clairsville coach Brett McLean said living through the 2012 season, one in which his Red Devils reached the Ohio Division IV state title game, was like living in a dream world.
It's a place the 11th-year coach certainly enjoyed.
Faced with a mountain of expectations because of an embarrassment of high-end talent, a slew of unsung heroes, and a veteran coaching staff, the Red Devils tackled nearly all of them, with McLean leading the way.

St. Clairsville football coach Brett McLean, back right, has been named The Intelligencer/Wheeling News-Register Coach of the Year for the third time. He's shown with wife, Victoria, as well as sons, from left: Ian, Beau and Sam.
For his efforts, he's been recognized by his Ohio Valley football coaching peers as The Intelligencer and Wheeling News-Register Coach of the Year.
It's the second consecutive year McLean has collected the award, and he also won it in 2007.
In the history of the honor, which dates back to 1939, though there were no picks between 1941-46, only three other coaches have been selected more than twice - Steubenville's Reno Saccoccia (1984, 2003, 2005), Shadyside's Ty Fleming (1989, 2000, 2001), and Bellaire's John Magistro (1995, 96, 97, 2006), the only four-time winner, and McLean.

*No picks between 1941-1961.
While the award is sponsored by the Wheeling Newspapers, it is voted on by fellow OVAC football coaches.
''Wow,'' McLean said. ''It's an honor. I know what the valley holds in terms of coaches and programs. It's something I don't take for granted, that's for sure. I try to be humble in everything I do, in every approach. There's a lot of hard work that goes into this and it's really rewarding to be identified by your peers.''
Well before winning last year, McLean recalled the 2011 preseason when, coming off a 9-3 season, many observers chuckled when they visited August practices, McLean said.
''You guys graduated everybody, a lot of these guys are little, you don't have a lot of veterans ... '' were some of the comments he recalled.
''So we did kinda sneak up a little for at least couple weeks,'' on their way to a 9-1 regular season and a trip to the Division IV, Region 15 semifinals.
It wasn't like that in 2012. To many, anything but a deep run into the playoffs would have been a disappointment.
McLean and his guys didn't disappoint.
''We had a sour taste in our mouths (after last season),'' McLean said. ''We felt like we left something on the field, we were really motivated, and we had some really mature seniors. It's a tough task to juggle expectations, but the kids did just as good as coaches, they never got selfish, never got complacent.''
Led by the likes of Mike Ferns, Matt Kinnick, Jaylon Brown, and Dan Monteroso, the Red Devils were a force from the start.
Sort off....
They trailed at halftime of the season opener against Wheeling Park.
''When we went into that locker room, a couple of older kids spoke up and laid down groundwork for the rest of the season,'' McLean said. ''From that third quarter, that was the team we were from that point on. Halftime of that Wheeling Park game was the best thing that happened all season.''
The Red Devils rolled to one decisive victor after another from there, as they were rarely threatened after halftime and carried that momentum all the way to the state title game.
''To make it as far as we did in Ohio, you have to have talent,'' McLean said. ''Amidst our highly recruited kids, there's a lot of meat-and-potato kids that did a lot of hard work. We couldn't have won games without them or coaches that work hard all year. That's the big thing. There's a lot of pieces in the puzzle that had to go into place.''
That's two different seasons, two different types of expectations, two different Coach of the Year honors.
Growing up in Brooke County, playing for the Bruins during their heyday, then going on to Mount Union, McLean was well aware of what high expectations meant and how to handle them.
''I'd be lying if I didn't tell you when I was playing college football, there was not a season where Mount Union wasn't a preseason No. 1,'' he said. ''In high school, it was the same thing. We were expected to be in playoffs and do big things.''
He's built that at St. Clairsville now, a place he revered a bit as he watched the Red Devils play against Brooke behind Wellsburg Middle School in the mid-1980s.
''We're turning into that culture now, but it's never been taken for granted,'' McLean said. ''It's not just going to happen, you have to make it happen. It's something that really builds off itself.''
In the end, St. Clairsville's ultra-successful coach has gained a little perspective on the entire thing.
''My youthful coaching experience, I thought was all about wins and losses,'' he said. ''There's kids that are lawyers and doctors that have played for me. We have a lot of kids that weren't stars or starters, but they come back and come to practice and Facebook and e-mail me. It feels great to know you were a part of their life and a positive influence in some way.''

The X7 promises performance and durability with the distinctive SRAM shifting prowess.
The 1:1 actuation is simply superior. The very nature of its design makes it this way. For every 1 unit of cable pulled or released, the derailleur moves the same amount. This is why the top athletes in the MTB world prefer SRAM. From the mud infested Cross-Country of the Sea Otter Classic, to the rocks and roots of a Fort William World Cup Downhill the 1:1 actuation stays precise and fluid. 1:1 Actuation precision is why you find SRAM on the elite bikes from cross-country flyers to full gravity bombers.
The Direct Route Technology has had SRAM singing the praises of this technology for years. Cut out the middleman, go direct, and speak to the actuation mechanism itself. Direct route technology is light, responsive, precise and impervious to cable housing damage. SRAM has simply reduced the friction by routing the cable directly to the actuation mechanism and less effort means you save the extra push for your ride.
Not the best installation process, and absolutely awful instructions. Once on, though, it sure does its job.

Hi newbie here
I just installed Ubuntu 10.4 LTS and downloaded Zimbra 1.2.4 build 1833 i686.sh but got the following message:
Could not open the file /home/user/Downloads/zde _build_1833_linux_i686.sh.
Reason it said:
gedit has not been able to detect the character encoding. Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file. Select a character encoding from the menu and try again.
Does this mean the two are not compatible?
