"HERMOSILLO - CITY OF ORANGES?" Top 5 Page for this destination Hermosillo by mtncorg
Hermosillo Travel Guide: 30 reviews and 55 photos
Hermosillo is the capital of the northwestern Mexican State of Sonora. It is known as the City of Oranges as you used to be able to tell you were near the town miles away by the scent of the orange blossoms in the air. The baseball team is known as the Naranjeros - the Orangemen. Alas, Like in the case of California's Orange County by Los Angeles, the orange groves have given way to urban development.
History here goes back to the early 1700's when a fort was established to protect settlers along the Rio Sonora. Recent growth has mushroomed - the town was only 45000 during the 1970's and is now over a million - and growth sprawls gar out into the nearby desert like other northern Mexican cities - Mexicali, Tijuana, Ciudad Juarez - and southern Arizona cities - Phoenix, Tucson. The historical core is the small area near the base of the Cerro de la Compania and the Plaza Zaragoza. Many new factories - Ford Motors makes several lines of automobiles here - have spurred growth and the outlook for the future is more of the same. The City lies on the historical western route from the heartland of Mexico to el Norte beyond and if you are driving to or from the US, it makes a nice stopping place.
Hermosillo is about five hours south of Tucson, Arizona by car. An interesting phenomena here is to note how many cars have no licenses. This is a result of President Fox's allowance of unlicensed 'rural' vehicles - an act done to try an make small trucks more affordable for the rural poor. Many took advantage of the situation - that and the fact that they discovered Mexican customs did not man the border during the night. Thousands of cars were brought south over the border, some unlicensed and others with make-believe licenses. You have an accident with one of these cars and it officially does not happen!
I was here to help out with a vision clinic run by the local Lions clubs in association with the Lion In Sight group from California. We were able to see and help almost 700 patients in two days of work - not bad for a weekend's vacation.
- Pros:New sprawling City; Three seasons of comfort
- Cons:Summers are very HOT!

you provided good photo's--the city is not like that at all most houseing and businesse are in need of repair----it made me so sad that the people are in need of so much nothing is done about it Aug 30 2009
What a coincidence - we drove around Mex w/o a license plate, too, but not due to any favors from Pres. Fox. We parked illegally (couldn't read those Spanish no parking signs) and got our plate nabbed by the police!
So this is where you and your colleagues had your 700 patients in two days! Glad you made use of the new 5-photo format to show multiple views, especially of the Cerro de la Compania.
nice city - and bet, it smelles amazing when naranjas are in bloom :-) The square looks nice, with the flag - but gosh, dentists must have a lot of customers, given that sugar sweets :-)

Having an issue upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 LTS. Keeps failing on a package in the repo, but if I copy and paste the URL into
wget, it downloads the Packages.gz, albeit after almost 12-15 seconds as I'm assuming the timeout value in
do-release-upgrade is shorter than
wget by default.
I didn't see any parameters you can specify to change the timeout value calling
--help. Looking through
do-release-upgrade script had nothing obvious as far as timeout was concerned either.
My plan right now (unless I hear otherwise from my SF brethren) is to wait until after-hours and assume that there's some network congestion somewhere between this box and the repos (which I can't check as I don't really have access to the network at this client location).

From Our Editors
In 1946, just after the end of World War II, Norman Brown hand-set the type and hand-fed a Linotype press to roll out the first 16-page issue of the Anchorage News. Over the following decades, the publication changed its moniker to the Alaska Dispatch News and stocked its trophy cabinet with two Pulitzer Prizes for Public Service, cementing its regard in the minds of Alaskans.
Today, the newspaper lands on more than 50,000 doorsteps each week. The freshly printed folds contain the latest local news, from political updates on the debate over offshore drilling to explanations of how the school system is developing a new math curriculum to help children count past 20 without using each other's fingers and toes. The sports section keeps up with the Aces' triumphs, whereas the outdoors pages cover the Iditarod and the latest goings-on at Denali National Park. Readers can also gain insight into the business world, challenge their outlooks with editorials, and peruse entertainment articles before deciding to go see a local improv group or movie.

The City of Woodstock over the years has hosted and orchestrated many wonderful events and festivals that have been themed after our claim to be the Dairy Capital of Canada. A couple that come to mind would be the Dairy Capital Days held at Museum Square in the 60's featuring local dignitaries competing in a friendly milking contest dressed in dairy whites and complemented by milk streaming from the historic Patullo Fountain to the more recent Canada's Ice Cream Festival of 1998 and 1999 as hosted by the now defunct Oxford County Tourism Association.
Cowapolooza was introduced to Woodstock and area in the summer of 2002. The City created a festival that would both promote and preserve Woodstock's heritage as the "Dairy Capital" as well as to draw attention to our fast growing and progressive community. At that point the Community Services Department took a new direction in marketing the Friendly City by capitalizing on its natural acronym C.O.W. - City Of Woodstock and the fact that we're the dairy capital … it was almost too easy…"apolooza" is a commonly used reference to indicate or suggest a festival …. thus C.O.W.apolooza was born.
Over the better part of 9 years, many local organizations, companies and businesses have followed suit by utilizing the home grown holstein to promote their event, cause or brand. The downtown B.I.A. has J-Bo, the fashionably dressed heifer that encourages downtown shopping, the Woodstock Hospital Foundation has their own version of the bouncing bovine to promote their Dairy Capital Run fund raiser and if you see a Lely Canada Holstein statue at an event … you know something BIG is going on!
We may not have as many dairy farms as we used to, or even as many commercial dairy's, but we do know and appreciate what they've meant to the very fabric of our local culture over the years and it's our intention to continue to educate and expose that history to new generations … while at the same time having fun!
Thank you … Springbank Snow Countess!

Nice to see another good (don't want to be sarcastic here) FireRed hack out there! I'll probably test this out when you've got a release up. By the way, are you using Christos' hack as the base rom, copy --> paste'ing maps to your own "clean" rom or possibly creating everything from scratch by your own ways?

The National Scholars Program offers Clemson's top academic recruiting scholarship (covering tuition, fees, room and board, and other expenses) as well as extensive educational enrichment opportunities (study abroad, specialized coursework, dedicated mentoring). Selection is based on a review of top applications to the Calhoun Honors College and a rigorous, in-person interview process. » More information
The National Merit Scholarship is available for National Merit scholars who meet specific requirements. Clemson University will offer a $1,000 scholarship which is renewable for up to 3 years (a total of 8 terms). National Merit Scholars who complete the FAFSA by the March 1 deadline and have demonstrated financial need in any amount will receive an increased award of $2,000 which is renewable for up to 3 years (a total of 8 terms). Please contact the Office of Student Financial Aid for specific details.
Other academic recruiting scholarships are highly competitive and are awarded to entering freshmen on the basis of their admissions applications, beginning in the fall. A separate financial aid application is not required. Students who wish to be considered for Freshmen Academic Recruiting Scholarships should apply for admissions by December 1 and complete the admissions process by December 31.
Freshmen Recruiting Scholarships 2016-2017
All incoming freshmen who file the FAFSA by Clemson's March 1st priority deadline are considered for Federal Pell Grants, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG), Federal Work Study, and all Federal loan programs. South Carolina residents are considered for Palmetto Fellows (application available through high schools), LIFE, HOPE, and SC Need-Based Grants through the state. Over 98% of all in-state Clemson freshmen receive either the Palmetto Fellows or LIFE scholarship.
South Carolina Residents
(A student may receive only one of the Trustee Scholarship, Clemson Scholars or Palmetto Pact.)
Trustee Scholarship (or Other Named Scholarship)
Clemson Scholars
Palmetto Pact Scholarship
Note: Students with a Palmetto Fellows award and who declare a major that is eligible for the South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship Enhancement will receive the Freshmen STEM Scholarship, which is an additional one-time freshman award of $1,600.
Out-of-State (Domestic) Students
Non-Resident Merit Scholarship**
Clemson Non-Resident Grant
In addition to the awards listed above, Clemson considers all admitted freshmen (in-state or out-of-state) for our restricted scholarships, which are usually donated by alumni and other friends of the University and awarded to incoming students. Typically, about 15% of our admitted students are offered one of these scholarships.
This list is not inclusive of all scholarships, eligibility criteria, or renewability requirements.
The first high school transcript submitted for admission evaluation will be the same transcript used to determine merit scholarship eligibility.
Test scores need to be received by Clemson on or before March 1st.
* Students applying to Clemson from secondary schools which do not calculate class rank will still be considered for merit scholarships.
These scholarships are renewable for an additional three years of continuous undergraduate study for students who continue to meet the minimum prescribed academic criteria. The criteria are usually a cumulative 3.0 GPR and a minimum of 12 credits completed each semester. Academic standing will be monitored at the end of each academic year in May. Recipients who do not meet the scholarship criteria for renewal can make up their deficiencies in summer school and submit a letter of appeal.
Academic recruiting scholarships awarded to out-of-state residents can include a companion Out-of-State Tuition Scholarship/Non-Resident Merit Scholarship that subsidizes a portion of the original Out-of-State Tuition Scholarship offer, up to $500. The Out-of-State Tuition Scholarship/Non-Resident Merit Scholarship is available only during periods of enrollment when the recipient is eligible to receive the recruiting scholarship stipend. Stipends indicated in the scholarship listing are maximums. Awards may be reduced because of funding or other aid awarded.

No. It's an insect spy drone for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone. It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin. It can fly through an open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home.

44 Years of Pain......Gone in a Heartbeat!Posted by Simon Booth at 01:34 0 comments
I have supported Manchester City for over 40 years....in May this year they won the English Premier League for the first time in 44 years, If you are not from the UK, or you don't know what all the fuss about football/soccer is, and means to all the fanatics here in the UK, then watch this video, and watch it to the end, what the old guy at the end says sums up Manchester City, and what it has been like to follow them for decades without success, until now!
All Man City had to do to win the title was to beat QPR, but as we moved into stoppage time City were losing 1-2.....seconds remained!
Cometh the hour.....cometh the man!.....enter stage right Sergio Aguero!!
.......Oh!........and turn your freakin' speakers up will you!

There are no amenities but the park is right on the main street and can handle big rigs. The owner keeps the place very clean. The park is two blocks from the lake. Not much to see or do in this town but it is close to Penticton. - Carly

This is just a vacant parking lot! Sites are non existent - just empty parking spaces with hookups added. YUK. - B&M

The park is extremely clean. Gravel sites with a small patch of lawn on each site. Wide enough for four slides. Very friendly owner. Walking distance to shopping and the downtown area. Two blocks to the lake. The park does not have any recreation but the town itself does. - Carly

At first, we were not impressed as the spaces seemed to be very close together, but we had to stay somewhere. We got an end space which was not too close to the adjacent site, and, being an end lot, did not have a crowded feeling. There are some sites next to the water, but these seemed to be all taken by long-term residents, of which there are quite a few. The price was certainly right for Canada when we had been paying $30 for dry camping in the Provincial Parks. This was an off-season rate; the price is much higher during prime season. The couple running the park were very nice, helpful, and accommodating, and provide free firewood for a group campfire in the evenings. We did not use the restrooms, but the laundry was clean and reasonably priced. The campground is right behind the local IGA grocery, which is very convenient. A very nice bike path starts just across the street in a pleasant park. Even though it is in the heart of the city and only a block from the main road, it was nice and quiet at night. Our Verizon phone worked well; we could not get satellite from our site because of the trees. The WiFi signal was strong at our site and fast. The campground is open April 15 - October 15. Even during our off-season stay the campground filled so getting there early or reservations would be advisable. If we were in the area and looking for a campground with hookups, we would definitely choose this park again. - TheJim

This a small park that has recently changed it's name and is operated by the Osoyoos Indian Band. The new name has characters that computers will not accept, but I have posted a picture of the park sign. It's located by the river which has wonderful bird wildlife, and far enough off the highway that there is very little noise at night. Sites are gravel, spacious, sunny/open to some shade, and include a fire ring and picnic table. A walking/biking trail runs right through the park which can take you north towards Penticton or south towards Oliver for many miles. The Park hosts are great and maintain it very well. We would certainly stay here again. - Snoet

Stayed at this non-reserve camp to visit the "bird preserve center" shown on wildlife books. This turned out to be nothing more than a kiosk and a short boardwalk on the north end of the lake. We saw no birds during a mid June visit. Campsites can be tricky for bigger rigs. Camp hosts were great. Pretty sites, but road noise is bad. - G&S Smith

This was our favorite place during our 10 day trip. Very nice scenery. Lots of birds!!! Friendly camp host. Otters played at the lake during the night. - hakristi

Ironwork craft makers
By Sebastien Bridelance
Hi Steeve, Hi Brandon,
My name is Sebastien, I'm french and fond of SteveHuffPhoto.com. I like the way you and your readers share and sharing is also the topic of the little story I would like to tell you.
An event, 'the european days of crafts' takes place during the first weekend of April. I would probably miss this but fortunately a friend of mine invite me to visit ironwork craftmakers of his friends. They're located in Estaires, only few kilometers away from home. Obviously, my camera and me have accepted the invitation.
I've met passionate men, lovers of their work, preserving a traditional know-how. They've shown me how they shape pieces of iron for building and decorating a banister or a portal. They're inspired and inspiring persons. I thank them for their friendly welcome. I've taken the following photos using a 'classic' gear : nikon D700 and two of my favorite lenses : Nikkor 85mm f/1.8 and Zeiss Distagon 35mm f/2. The 85 shot the first picture while the Distagon 35 made the two others. I've post-processed the raw files with Silver Efex.
Curving the hot metal – Nikkor 85/1.8 @ f/1.8
In front of the forge – Distagon 35/2 @ f/4
Mr Lenglart, owner of the workshop, making a flower from a sheet of iron – Distagon 35/2 @ f/2.8
Best wishes,
Sebastien Bridelance

TOPMAN Shooting
We've recently announced itt: TOPMAN is looking for the Germany's First TOPMAN. Your chance for money, rum and loads of great clothes.
All information about application you'll find at TOPMAN. Or on the Facebook Page. The Dandy Diary-Team accompanies the campaign so if you win, we're gonna be your tutors. Pure motivation, isn't it?
The actor Franz Linda is the prominent sponsor of the campaign. You may join him for a couple of Fingerfood&Champagner&Smalltalk-events in case of victory. A couple of days ago, we were photographed in TOPMAN Looks:

Inflationary, bad: Wood-Sunglasses!
On a daily-bases, press-releases by labels are reaching us, which have specialised in the production of sunglasses out of wood.
They are boasting themselves with sustainability. Are praising their work with totally funny slogans like 'Woody since 2012′, 'In Wood We Trust' or 'Done by nature, designed for your eyes'.
All die Holzbrillen-Designs von Marken wie Kerbholz, Stadtholz, Wood Fellas, WOODONE, ROLF Spectacles, Eric Lauer, Enzo Forciniti, Scherler oder Zeitgeist Berlin tun das nicht.
The Berlin-based label with the original name 'Stadtholz' is assuring that one 'really has a piece of nature on their nose', when purchasing their glasses.
But does one want that?! Having a piece of nature on your nose, when it looks bad. Sustainability is great and all. But fashion is mainly about design. And that should look good.
Plus, there is nothing more annoying than labels, who are massively pining 'sustainability' on their flag. Most of the times it is exactly those labels, who have as much to do with sustainability as bumm-bumm-Boris with the smart usage of Twitter. Not a lot.
KRISVANASSCHE is not going to be continued!
Shortly after Scott Sternberg announced the end of Band of Outsiders, Kris Van Assche has also informed the public, that the label, which also carries his name, is not going to be continued.
Kris Van Assche will mainly concentrate on his work for DIOR HOMME. The Belgian designer announced the end of his label through a hand-written letter which he gave to his business partners and the press.
'Times are tough for independent labels.', Van Assche said to WWD. 'This wonderful adventure has reached a point where I feel the need to take a break and some distance to better think about how to develop my brand in the future.'
We will miss the sporty-but-buttoned-up aesthetics by KRISVANASSCHE!

New York Fashion Week: Hood by Air AW 2015
HOOD BY AIR presented their new collection 'Daddy' in a cellar-like setting at the Wall Street, the centrum of finance.
The mastermind behind HBA, Shayne Oliver, showed classics from the world of fashion, like button-down shirts, sweaters and polo t-shirts in the typical unisex Hood by Air Silhouette. Therefore it came to an hybrid between polo shirt and dress. Or camel coat and tank top.
The models wore locks in-front of their mouths and tights over their heads, like burglars. The soundtrack of the show, total freedom, was ended drastically, followed by jazz, underlined with the statement of the Empire:
"I wanna show you a faggot really can run this company".
It becomes obvious how appreciated HBA is also in the art-world, when looking at the guests who attended the show, for example Klaus Biesenbach and Grace Coddington.
It seems that HBA, even after the diss by their once supporter A$AP ROCKY, is still very hip.

The departure of former Pink Floyd leader Syd Barrett can be heard and felt all through this sparse song, even though he'd left the band and begun his three-decade self-imposed seclusion from the world some seven years earlier. Perhaps it's the honesty and resonance of this open letter to Barrett that made 'Wish You Were Here' such a favourite, and the album of the same name the British band's only US and UK No.1.
It's been a mainstay of the triple j Hottest 100 of all time lists, but the five-minute down-tempo epic remains close to hearts – even of those who aren't die-hard Pink Floyd fans. The sad, nostalgic melody and lyrics such as "We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year" and its theme of detachedness held appeal far beyond bassist Roger Waters' personal words.
The year of its release also marked the last time co-singer and guitarist David Gilmour spoke to his former bandmate. Wracked with mental illness and withdrawing from the world completely, Barrett died in '06 from complications from diabetes, aged 60. But even with three decades in seclusion, his artistic impact was felt, with everyone from David Bowie and Blur citing the reclusive artist as a huge influence.

Oh well, this is a vote run by a radio station, so you are of course going to get songs that are in radio rotation. 2JJ in its heyday might have played Echoes, or Careful With That Axe Eugene. What we've got here is almost a 2WS playlist.
13 Jul 2009 4:21:38pm
Go the Floyd!
Favourite song of all time!!
So glad it got top 20 like it deserves.
13 Jul 2009 2:33:35am
Important to note that the guitar melody completely rips off Gene Clark's 'With Tomorrow'. Give the latter a listen...
12 Jul 2009 8:01:58pm
A classic track for the top twenty seems like many influencial and classics have to miss out Neil Young,Santana etc and Stones can't make a top fifty, and women can't seem to cut the mustard, oh well it is all smoke on the water (who sung that?)
12 Jul 2009 8:23:18pm
Agree totally - but at least this made it in. Deep Blue? Mauve? oh! Purple!! What about Sweet Child in Time?
12 Jul 2009 7:14:53pm
12 Jul 2009 7:13:26pm
I am pretty pleased, this is my favorite song in the history of the universe and we voted it into the top 20 best songs ever!!
12 Jul 2009 6:26:41pm

12 Jul 2009 5:58:47pm
Ahh the memories...Lost my virginity to this song.Needless to say "wish you were here" was the highlight of that night.
12 Jul 2009 5:54:44pm
12 Jul 2009 5:20:56pm
I wish you were still hear J J George Wayne I hope you found you stairway to heaven this is you last goodbye

12 Jul 2009 4:53:00pm
12 Jul 2009 4:45:45pm
favourite song of all time :-)
12 Jul 2009 4:43:35pm
I'm so happy - wish you were here made it - knew it would - I love love love it - although I'm covered up in bed with the flu - and delirium - but it's great to listen with anticipation of what's coming next ... but I love the floyd!! shoulda been top 10 tho
12 Jul 2009 4:48:49pm
12 Jul 2009 4:41:41pm
WYWH was the only song played at my bosses funeral earlier. Nothing more to be said really.
12 Jul 2009 4:40:03pm
Yep At Least 1 song so far is worthy of this 100 Shouldv'e been higher though
12 Jul 2009 4:32:48pm
WYWH brilliantly sums up emotional relationships,the melody is on the wish list of what to master for every beginner guitarist & the songwriting is genius
12 Jul 2009 4:32:45pm
12 Jul 2009 4:30:41pm
Brilliant just love this ..... Dark side of the Moon I wonder if that will rate
12 Jul 2009 4:30:15pm
oh yeah good song!!!
12 Jul 2009 4:29:44pm
One of the best tunes ever produced. Still sounds as fresh today as it did when it was first released. AWESOME
12 Jul 2009 4:29:36pm
Thanks TripleJ for putting a smile on my face, many fond memories with Pink Floyd, I was lucky enough to be at the original Wall concert in London all those years ago.
12 Jul 2009 4:22:42pm
I've thought about it and I think that "listening to Pink Floyd" should be listed as one of the characteristics of male puberty...
12 Jul 2009 4:22:22pm
alltime classic - still makes my spine tingle after all these years!
Pink Floyd rocks forever.
12 Jul 2009 4:21:56pm
Would it be fair to say that we are 'balls deep' into the top 20
12 Jul 2009 4:21:41pm
Yes bitter sweet
12 Jul 2009 4:21:19pm
Yah for the Alphabet generation:)
12 Jul 2009 4:20:36pm
re: pink floyd - at last something deserving...half of it has been very very disappointing so far...maybe some drugs will make them a little more bearable?...i bet if jjj held another hottest 100 right now, the list would be turned arse up
12 Jul 2009 4:20:25pm

12 Jul 2009 4:16:00pm
Wow, so good to hear this song in the top 20. I grew up with this one; close to the heart. Pink Floyd is one of those bands that are timeless. I still expect this to be listened to, and appear in top 100 of all time polls, in many years to come.
12 Jul 2009 4:15:58pm

Beautiful, blissful, magical!!

a true classic
12 Jul 2009 4:12:38pm
Im offended that a hopeless song like that travesty by the hilltop hoods is even in the top 100, let alone next to an amazing song like 'Wish You Were Here'
12 Jul 2009 4:12:34pm
Fuck yeah, floyd FTW
12 Jul 2009 4:12:31pm
This song totally belongs on this list... good to see it get up..
12 Jul 2009 4:12:13pm
This should be higher, but still gives hope that the voters have some sensibility.
12 Jul 2009 4:12:12pm
Love this song! I remember listening to it after school with friends( 1980's) & playing it on my guitar.

12 Jul 2009 4:10:20pm
So, so you think you can tell... Iconic opening line, and when you hear it you have to stop and listen.
That is the mark of a song that is truly worthy of a spot in the top 20 of all time.
12 Jul 2009 4:10:12pm
Spine tingling song. Deserved of this spot.

For the record, if I use some already provided gagdet by shindig it works without any problems (those are OAuth2.0 though):
I've been searching this question and lots of people have this same problem but no answers. I think this could be the place they're looking for :D

Comments about Ampersand Hardbords:
I love these! I keep a stack of the smaller sizes around for studies and quick mini originals; the combination of it being both solid and cheap makes it perfect for being able to sell studies that come out nicely. No fear of cracking in temp changes like with wood, and not as much warping.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Never warps if you gesso both sides.
Great value
By HunterB
from Charlotte NC
These are very useful, good price. Packaging from Blick is intense to insure no damaged corners.
Excellent quality - great for watercolor
By mdk
from San Antonio, TX
I had been using the cheaper hardboards, but there wasn't an 8x10 available and I need that size for my pochade box so I picked these up instead. Fabulous quality boards! I use them to tape my watercolor paper for use in my box. Slides right into the holder made for 8x10 canvas and works perfectly!
Great Materials
By Bob
from GR MI
I rely on the quality of the hardboard's and it is excellent time after time. I have used hundreds all with the same great level of quality and fast delivery.
Better than making my own!
By Supreme Commander
from In the Salish Sea
I built my own masonite panels for years -- byt the time I factor in my own labor, it's much cheaper to buy the Ampersand product.
Ampersand Hardbord--online purchase
By Patrick Parnell Photography
from San Francisco, CA
I use these "cradled" hardbords for mounting digital photography and they are great: edges are finished, face is flat, and they're ready to go immediately. Price/value is even better when they are on sale.
By N
from Oshkosh, WI
Without a doubt, this is the best panel I have used.
By NT
A little bit pricier than other boards and panels but it's worth it. I prefer painting on a rigid surface rather than canvas. You can feel the quality of this product. It just feels really solid. Some of the panels have warped or bowed just a slight amount after applying gesso. This probably depends on the size of the panel and if it is cradled. I would recommend sealing the panel with some sort of size like a Golden GAC 100. This seems to reduce the warping, with or without a cradle.
great for encaustic
By iphotoghosts
from st louis mo
I use for encaustic work. I have used encaustic gesso to board or attach water color paper depending on type of work. Good solid base and reasonable to use. Only thing comes to mounting it or framing work. You need to attach it something else to hang.
Ampersand manufactures a wide variety of archival artist panels. There is a surface for every artist, every medium and every technique. Watch this video to learn which of these boards is right for you!

What a great plaid ad the material has a nice feel to it. I wore it shortly after I received it and got quite a few compliments on this shirt. I reallly like the cut of it as well, though I wish that the sleeves were a bit slimmer in keeping with the rest of the cut. Well done!

Bollywood glamour girl Kareena Kapoor will be the showstopper for designer Rajesh Pratap Singh's grand finale show at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer- Resort (LFW) 2014.
"Kareena will be walking the ramp for the grand finale," Purniima Lamba, head of innovation at fashion brand Lakme, title sponsor of the fashion extravaganza, told IANS.
"Our theme for this season is illusion. Illusion is the new fashion statement inspired by the digital age. There will be a lot of metallic shadows which will be the new trend.
"Kareena has always been involved a lot with her collections and she is someone who loves kajal (kohl), so she will be contributing a lot to the shades," Lamba added.
The LFW will see established designers like Manish Malhotra and Neeta Lulla exhibiting their lines on the ramp.
Lulla is excited to showcase her line which is inspired from streetwear.
"My collection will be an Indo-western blend which is inspired from the street wear. It's a very trendy collection," she said.
This season, designer Anita Dogre will be the mentor for Gen Next show, which promotes new talent.
LFW will be held here March 12-16, with Malhotra as the opening designer.

Ice Cold: Solid Carbon Dioxide Cleaning SymposiumSmithsonian American Art Museum & National Portrait GalleryMcEvoy Auditorium | 8th and G Streets NW | Washington DC, 20001September 10, 2015This full day program is an opportunity for conservators and collection care specialists to explore the technology, applications, and benefits of solid carbon dioxide snow cleaning for collection treatment and preservation. Solid carbon dioxide cleaning (snow to pellet) has been tested and used in critical cleaning capacities, such as the removal of surface contamination during the production of silicon microchip wafers and precision optical lenses. Significant advances in CO2 technology and its employment have produced valuable results for the field of conservation, specifically for objects with sensitive surfaces. On Thursday, September 10, the Lunder Conservation Center will present a symposium in the Smithsonian American Art Museum's McEvoy Auditorium. Talks will focus on the discussion of past case studies, current considerations, and future possibilities in the use of solid CO2 cleaning for collection care.Registration for this program is required. Please register here.Program Schedule (PDF)Conservation and Exhibition Planning: Material Testing for Design, Display, and Packing ConferenceSmithsonian American Art Museum & National Portrait GalleryMcEvoy Auditorium | 8th and G Streets NW | Washington DC, 20001November 19 – 20, 2015This two-day conference is an opportunity for exhibition designers, mount makers, registrars, collection managers, conservators, and scientists to explore the challenges of how materials are selected for use with art objects. The planning for appropriate collection care before, during, and after display is dependent on accessing reliable information about the materials we use. The production of fabrics, painted surfaces, mounts, foams, and board materials facilitate the creative display of art objects. Understanding how these materials will react with artworks over time is a fundamentally challenging, but necessary, undertaking. This conference will convey practical considerations that facilitate and benefit collection care in museum exhibition workflows, and how they impact staff across departments. Presentations will focus on designing exhibitions and fabricating display furniture; strategic approaches to collection care during the exhibition implementation process; designing storage environments; conservation work spaces; interpretation and sharing of analytical results from Oddy testing and alternatives to the Oddy test; and monitoring how materials change over time.To register please visit the education tab of the American Institute for Conservation's website. Additional information and registration guidelines are listed under the current courses section.

The preservation of objects made from aluminum alloys is an issue of high priority in the materials conservation field. Artifacts as diverse as domestic objects, modern sculpture, scientific and technological objects, outdoor architectural structures, airplanes and spacecraft, constructed in whole or in part from this material, can suffer severe deterioration. Little technical information is readily available to the conservation community about how to effectively conserve these artifacts. The recent invention of many of these alloys and their ever-increasing prevalence in museum collections adds to the severity of the problem.Download the program announcement (PDF)Monday, March 3, 2014Seeing Through Paintings: An Insider's ViewMcEvoy Auditorium, Lower Level Authors and painting conservators, Andrea Kirsh and Rustin Levenson, presented a lecture on the study of paintings as physical objects. The authors showed how the physical attributes of an artwork can illuminate important critical, historical, and social issues. Our speakers focused on their award-winning book, Seeing Through Paintings: Physical Examinations in Art Historical Studies.February 20 and 21, 2014The Non-Invasive Analysis of Painted Surfaces: Scientific Impact and Conservation PracticeA two-day international symposiumSmithsonian American Art Museum, McEvoy Auditorium, 8th and G Streets, NW, Washington, DCPresented in partnership with the Lunder Conservation Center, ICOM-CC Paintings Working Group, ICOM-CC Scientific Research Working Group, and FAIC.This two-day event focused on recent advances in technology and instrumentation for the analysis of painted surfaces.While non-destructive and micro-destructive analytical methods are often essential for the study and understanding of paintings, recent developments in portable and non-invasive instrumentation have led to growing interest in the applicability of techniques to the study of paintings. Further, as new instrumentation becomes commercially available and more affordable, conservators and scientists are able to use non-invasive techniques for monitoring and analysis in new ways.A particular focus of the conference was the interpretation of analytical results from portable instrumentation including colorimetry, imaging and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. The format of the conference included papers and panel discussions.

Anew Body Oasis
Joseph Lupino, founder and owner of Anew Body Oasis, has been garnering massage knowledge since he was 5 years old. Following in his grandmother's footsteps, Lupino learned the art of massage and its ability to treat much more than just cranky muscles. "[My grandparents] were not prone to run to a doctor like we do today," he said, a philosophy that has stuck with him through his working life. Lupino received a degree in psychology, and he quickly found his skills in massage came in handy in his new profession. He used "massage to calm irate patients in the psychiatric wards." His coworkers warned that entering a frenzied patient's room without a sedative in hand would get him killed, but a few minutes after he had done just that, "[he] walked out [without] a scratch," and the patient was peaceful again.
Though Lupino loves the study of psychology, he kept coming back to massage. He eventually got his massage license and, in 1991, founded Anew Body Oasis. His diverse professional repertoire has left him with stellar interpersonal skills—he is able to assess what kind of music clients want to hear during treatments, how experienced they are with massage, and what the name of their firstborn child should be. A new massage client may receive a gentler, more soothing massage, and veteran guests are apt to receive firmer strokes. Lupino's team of therapists uses combinations of 10 massage modalities during candlelit treatments tailored to individual needs.

text: 248 FXUS63 KFGF 282357 AFDFGF Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Grand Forks ND 657 PM CDT SAT MAY 28 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 657 PM CDT Sat May 28 2016 Lightning has diminished to only a flash or two every 5 minutes. This indicates the storms weakening...which given the environment and loss of heating (with increase cloud cover) makes sense. The non-supercell tornado parameter has also decreased with low level CAPE weakening...along with the surface convergence (which was already weak to begin with). Rain showers across the northern valley will continue for a few more hours (given latest hrrr/rap runs)...and increased PoPs to near 100% since it is raining and is fairly widespread across this area. Showers are very slow moving given weakly sheared environment...but rain rates are minimal and would be surprised if any rainfall amounts over an inch or two more were to happen. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday night) Issued at 312 PM CDT Sat May 28 2016 Main forecast challenge will be pcpn chances through the entire short term forecast. As for late this afternoon and tonight, visible satellite imagery shows more convective elements to the clouds along and west of the Red River Valley. This is supported by the radar, with individual convective cells mainly west of the Red River Valley. A little more stratiform pcpn is on the MN side of the river. There was a decent area of stratiform rain working into central Minnesota, from KSTC to KAXN, but this also appears to be weakening. Will end up carrying some ISO to SCT pcpn chances into the evening for most areas. There is a convective line over the western Dakotas that the models try to bring into the KDVL to KJMS corridor late tonight. Will keep some pcpn chances in this area late tonight to cover this potential. If anyone gets any clearing tonight, the light winds may bring some patchy fog. Confidence too low at this point to mention, but will pass along to the next shift to watch. Starting to look like Sunday morning will start off dry for most areas. By afternoon there may be more ISO to SCT pcpn chances, but mainly east of the Red River Valley. These should die off again Sunday evening. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 312 PM CDT Sat May 28 2016 Monday looks like a fairly decent day for the most part. SPC day 3 outlook has portions of the western and central Dakotas in a slight risk. Models show a sfc low and boundaries in this area by 00Z Tue. Therefore looking at storms firing out west, and working eastward during the evening and overnight time frame. These could be strong storms, but will have some time to watch this. By Tuesday the sfc low is still in this FA, so once again could be quite a bit of pcpn around. For Tue night through Sat...500 mb low west of cwa tue afternoon is progged to open and move east of the region as the extended period begins...resulting in diminishing pops and sky cover for wed. northwest flow and cooler air should keep high temps only in the 60s for wed. high pressure and return flow will result in quick moderation in time for thu with near average temps returning by fri. the next wave is likely to approach toward the weekend...resulting in higher pops returning fri night into sat. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday evening) Issued at 657 PM CDT Sat May 28 2016 Expect most sites to become at least MVFR tonight given the relatively high low level moisture combined with minimal mixing (winds). Fog and LIFR/IFR conditions are possible...but likelihoodof occurrence rather low. && .FGF Watches/Warnings/Advisories... ND...None. MN...None. && $$ UPDATE...TG SHORT TERM...Godon LONG TERM...WJB/Godon AVIATION...TG

text: Pat Comstock Determining Need During Illinois' Impasse: Governor Lobs DON Back To Legislators By Amanda Vinicky • Nov 9, 2015 Thousands of senior citizens and persons with disabilities are waiting to learn if Illinois will change how it determines who qualifies for state aid and what kind of services are provided. As the state's embroiled in budget gridlock, it's one of the areas Governor Bruce Rauner tried to cut back on spending. But legislators (including a handful of Rauner's fellow Republicans, a rarity) voted to prevent that. On Friday, Rauner used his veto powers in an apparent attempt to strike a balance. Nursing Home Advocates Call For Income Tax Extension By Hannah Meisel • May 6, 2014 WUIS Advocates for nursing homes say if Illinois does not keep income tax rates where they are, thousands of seniors could lose access to care. But it's not yet clear whether the General Assembly will make the tax hike permanent. Lawmakers have a little less than a month to pass a budget for the next fiscal year -- a budget that nursing homes rely on to subsidize their operations. Advocates say if the state's income tax is allowed to roll back as scheduled at the end of the year, nursing homes are projected to take a 14 percent funding cut. Nursing Home Advocates Relieved Over Gov. Quinn's Budget Address By Hannah Meisel • Apr 1, 2014 Nursing home advocates say they're relieved by Gov. Pat Quinn's budget address last week. The governor says state has already been cut enough. Two years ago, Gov. Quinn announced drastic cuts to Medicaid, the state's healthcare program for the poor, disabled and elderly. Medicaid helps pay for nursing homes, so when the legislature followed through on these cuts, many facilities shut down or laid off workers. Pat Comstock, with the Healthcare Council of Illinois, says these cuts persisted through last year. But this year, she says things are looking brighter.

Some people around here get to 10K miles in a year or less, but it took me five years after being diagnosed with Stage 4 colorectal cancer back in March of 2009. Despite 5 major surgeries and more than 60 rounds of chemo, I kept riding. Sometimes I think that's the only reason I'm still here. Still on chemo and while my prognosis isn't good, it wasn't good 5 years ago. So, I just keep riding and taking care of my health. I let the doctors worry about treating the disease.
Anyway, last night's 31-mile, hilly ride put me over the 10K mark, and here's what it looked like. Probably half of those miles were logged on the Klein--the frame I bought from Grumpy McTrumpy after my first (of three) lung surgery. Nice frame to hang a Psimet wheel set on, don't you think?

Outlook 2013: Technology changes high school classrooms
As educators look to the future of learning, a few things are constant: the student, the teacher and the subjects.
But how and where high school students learn is rapidly changing, said Derrel Fincher, director of learning technologies at the state Education Department.
Students will spend more time working together and problem solving than ever before, and the technology used in the classroom is a supporting piece of those changes, Fincher said.
"You want the technology to disappear in the background," he said.
One of the biggest trends in education is personalized learning, Fincher said. Students learn together, but teachers are able to tailor subjects to individual needs.
"I think of it as collaboration and joint creation, and joint knowledge building," Fincher said. "The emphasis on collaboration is starting to build."
Creating a more personalized learning environment doesn't mean children will work alone, Fincher said.
Classrooms are shifting away from cooperation and toward collaboration, Fincher said. Instead of students doing parts of a project and clumping them together, they are working to solve real-world problems. It better reflects how adults work together.
"If you look at anything that happens in industry, it's always multiple people working together," Fincher said. "Those who struggle the most in industry are those who are very bright but can't work with others."
The structure allows students to direct their own learning in many cases. Relinquishing control to students is a change for teachers, Fincher said.
Technology advancing; methods changing
Three-dimensional printing, remote laboratories, live video feeds of world events and wearable technology are all on the not-too-distant horizon for students. Online learning will expand.
A big challenge will be to keep up, Fincher said.
"One of the difficulties we have in Oklahoma is making sure all the schools have enough technology and that teachers are trained to use it," he said. "Teachers need support. They can't do it all themselves."
But who will buy all those personal devices? There are two models, Fincher said.
•One-to-one. Districts provide the same device to each student.
•BYOD. Using the bring-your-own-device model, students bring whatever they prefer to use, whether it's a laptop, smartphone or tablet.
The one-to-one model is becoming less popular, Fincher said. When students provide their own technology, teachers are liberated from teaching to the technology provided by the district, he said. It's also more of a real-life scenario.
"That's how students work together outside of the class," he said.
In the bring-your-own-device model, school districts provide devices for low-income students. But many kids have two or three devices, and they bring them in and kind of share them in class, Fincher said.
"The altruistic nature of our students really comes out," he said. "That's what so amazing."
It also helps students learn to maneuver multiple devices and computer systems, Fincher said.
"Our students need it," he said. "If they're going to be successful in 20 years, they need access to it today. If the kids are using them outside of school, they should be using them for learning inside of school."
But educators still are figuring out how to make sure students are using electronics to learn, not to goof off.
Cellphone bans are becoming more common in the classroom, as younger and younger users have their own mobile devices. But Fincher said that's moving in the wrong direction.
"We're going to have to develop new social conventions for how this works," he said. "What you really want to do is work with the students about what is appropriate or inappropriate."

http://www.stockconsultant.com/consultnow/basicplus.cgi?&symbol=ADBEI bought at 26 and will ride the "dead cat bounce" to 29 or 30 in a week. This gap will be filled. This is a great company that beat earnings and was honest about a coming slowdown in sales. It is still a possible acquisition target, and still growing under a solid management that is actively repurchasing shares and adding to eventual shareholder value. This is a blip.It's not like they are fraudulent. Shorting this stock now is simply not a wise trading move. Who would buy a stock after a 20% gap up? So why would anyone short it if there were no real big glaring issues after a 20% gap-down? This is one of those rare gifts from Mr. Market, and smart traders will take advantage of it.None of us know for sure, but this is a great gamble on the long side, and I forsee institutional monies (re)invested in the near future.Disclosure: Long ADBE @ 26.0

I am completely new to Perl. I needed to use an external module HTTP::BrowserDetect. I was testing some code and tried to get the name of the OS from os_string method. So, I simply initialized the object and created a variable to store the value returned.
my $ua = HTTP::BrowserDetect->new($user_agent);
my $os_name = $ua->os_string();
print "$user_agent $os_name\n";
there are some user agents that are not browser user agents so they won't get any value from os_string. I am getting an error
Use of uninitialized value $os_name in concatenation (.) or string
How do I handle such cases when the $os_name is not initialized because the method os_string returns undef (this is what I think happens from reading the module source code). I guess there should be a way to give a default string, e.g. No OS in these cases.

Netflix is feeling consumer pushback from its recent decision to split its pricing.
Netflix Inc. is feeling consumer pushback from its recent decision to split its pricing. As a result, Netflix is revising its domestic subscriber numbers downward.
In July Netflix, No. 13 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide said it was eliminating a combination DVD-by-mail and unlimited streaming rental plan priced at $9.99 in favor of offering consumers the option to subscribe to either format for $7.99 each. If customers want DVDs by mail and streaming they now have to subscribe to both and pay a minimum of $15.98 per month to have one DVD checked out at a time and access to unlimited streaming.
In a letter to shareholders released in a new filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings says the company is projecting the number of new subscribers for streaming digital content will total 9.8 million in the third quarter compared with an earlier projection of 10 million. The number of projected subscribers with both DVD-by-mail and unlimited streaming is expected to be flat at 12 million while the number of new DVD-by mail subscribers is expected to be 2.2 million, down from an earlier forecast of 3 million subscribers.
In the third quarter, Netflix expects its total U.S. subscriber base to range from 24.6 million to 25.4 million. For the second quarter ended June 30, the number of paid subscribers grew 70.7% to 25.6 million from 15 million in the second quarter of 2010, the company says.
"We know our decision to split our services has upset many of our subscribers, which we don't take lightly," Hastings wrote in his letter. "We believe this split will help us make our services better for subscribers and shareholders.
Despite forecasting a lower number of new domestic subscribers, Netflix is sticking with its third quarter financial guidance. Netflix expects Q3 revenue to range from $780 million to $805 million. Netflix is expected to release its third quarter earnings around Oct. 17.
