EVER WONDER why most famous singers sound
so much better on their records compared to
performing live? It's not just pitch correction
responsible for their transformation. Deep
composite editing and dozens of edits at
the syllabic and sample levels have been
implemented in the recording. Standout
vocal excerpts have been cherry-picked and
combined and blemishes removed, creating
a track that consistently presents the singer's
very best capabilities from moment to moment.
You can do the same. Use these micro-editing
techniques to make your vocal track the
crème de la crème.
Mix and Match Record several takes of
the lead vocal track—more than a dozen,
if the singer can handle it without flaming
out. Listen to every take in turn as you play
back the first vocal phrase. Copy the best
parts—even if they're just fleeting syllables—
to a new, blank track reserved for your final
composite vocal. In choosing the gems, you
should generally be listening for five things:
intelligible lyrics, great intonation, strong
projection, excellent tone, and a strong vibe
that conveys the emotional essence of the
song. But don't overlook momentary dross. It's
not uncommon for me to snap up a breathy
syllable, a momentary crack in the singer's
voice, or other ostensible imperfections that
ooze emotion for a nanosecond in an otherwise
unfeeling phrase.
Slip and Slide After you've built the
composite vocal track, you're ready to start
micro-editing it in your DAW. Pay attention
to how crisp the phrasing is; it should propel
a rhythmic, uptempo song along or lay back a
bit for a ballad. Within each phrase, cut up and
nudge syllables milliseconds earlier or later
along the timeline where necessary, to make
them lock to the beat. Don't go overboard,
though, or the vocal will sound robotic.
Copy and Paste In your composite track,
listen for consonants that aren't clearly voiced,
making the lyric unintelligible. Replace any
swallowed consonants with the same ones
articulated more clearly elsewhere in the song
by copying the champ and pasting it in place of
the lemon. If the consonant in the composite
track should occur at the start or end of a word
or phrase, be sure to paste it so that it voices
squarely on a beat or strong subdivision of the
song. While nudging one syllable or consonant
may not make a noticeable difference in the
overall performance, slide a couple dozen bits
in a four-minute song and the result will be a
more authoritative vocal that's firmly in the
Bump It Up or Down Your composite
track is bound to comprise bits and pieces
sung at different volumes. If any snippet dips
or leaps out even slightly in an unnatural
way, bump the region's volume up or down
to even it out with surrounding ones. Doing
this will preclude the need to use heavy vocal
compression during mixdown, preserving
depth and nuance. If your DAW doesn't
allow non-destructive volume adjustments
for regions, draw fader-automation curves
to smooth out the ride. The goal here isn't
to beat the vocal dynamics into submission
but to mitigate any dips that make the lyrics
unintelligible or peaks that sound jerky.
Smooth the Seams Don't rely on crossfades
to hide poor-sounding edits; subdued clicks
and pops have a nasty habit of resurfacing
when dynamics processing is subsequently
applied during mixing and mastering. Instead,
optimize each edit seam by adjusting region
boundaries so that each transition occurs
at a zero crossover for both the leading and
following waveform. If possible, place the edit
seam so that the waveform on each side of the splice is trending toward the same polarity
(that is, consistently rising or falling; see
Figure 1); an instantaneous reversal in phase
will often cause a pop even when it occurs at
a zero crossover (see Figure 2). If the edit still
causes a click after finessing its placement,
implement a crossfade on the seam.
Transitions between audio regions often
sound the smoothest where waveforms
have mild slopes on either side of the seam.
(You can often get away with instantaneous
polarity reversals if the amplitude is low and
the slope very mild to either side of the edit
seam; see Figure 3.) The exception is with
hard consonants: Placing the seam right
before the amplitude spike for a t or k usually
sounds best. And an edit that doesn't occur
at the zero-crossover point, if artfully placed,
can sometimes enhance a following hard
consonant that wasn't inherently loud enough.
Let It Breathe Take care not to place edit
seams in the middle of breath noises, as
that will make them sound artificial. Don't
completely eliminate breath sounds either,
unless they're distracting in some way.
Extinguishing all breathing will make the
vocal sound unnatural—who doesn't breathe
for four minutes?—and, for uptempo songs,
bereft of urgency.
Enjoy the Fruits of Your Labor If
skillfully and artistically rendered, you can
make a hundred or more edits to a vocal track
without anyone realizing it's been touched.
The total effect of all your nips and tucks will
be a vocal performance that far surpasses the
quality and impact of any one of the original
takes. It typically takes hours of work to build
such a virtuosic track, but the huge payoff is
totally worth the sweat.

"The confirmation hearings
Eisley_Rose replied on
"The confirmation hearings of Judge Sonia Sotomayor have mostly focused on race and how she may or may not allow her Latinidad to impact her judicial rulings on the Supreme Court".
I think thats pretty sad. So what if she does? It's a step up from affluent white men looking out for affluent white men. And I don't think that just because she isn't a white man which, which apparently is the norm, that that will make her any more biased then anyone else. If anything her struggle would probably serve as an asset to recognize inequality and biases.
Its about time the other half of America was represented in some form. And as latina woman, I am very proud.
I get where you're coming
Jordan Butler replied on
I get where you're coming from, but technically, it would be a problem if she did directly "allow her Latinidad to impact her judicial rulings on the Supreme Court." As I understand it, to do so would be in violation of her responsibility as a Supreme Court Judge to rule impartially and interpret the constitution. So, in this case, I don't agree it's neutral or positive for Sotomayor to bring a Latina bias, but I agree with you that it's ridiculous to assume that white men don't struggle with white-man bias. And, I agree that diversity on the court is a good thing.
I am bothered by the racism in this case that comes in because people assume that because she is proud to be a Latina and is vocal about that, that she won't be able to rule impartially when called upon to do so. It's pretty racist and sexist for people to assume she doesn't possess the intelligence and rationality to do this. It's also pretty racist and sexist (as you are pointing out) to assume that white men don't have this problem - as if they don't have a race or gender that ever influences their decisions.
I think it's a dirty trick by those who have tried to paint her gender/race pride as racism something akin to white male gender/race pride. White male pride is not a theoretically bad thing; it's a real historical, violence-oriented bad thing.
Eisley_Rose replied on
I agree, I didn't mean to make it sound as if I want her to be biased. But the fact of the matter is that in all situations, no matter who we are biases will come about. It is clearly seen in the way women and minorities are treated in our culture- even by the ones who are supposed to be impartial. I don't hope that she WILL be biased, but I do think that whatever perspective she brings to the table will definitely be refreshing. And it annoys the hell out of me that because she is Latina and a woman that they question her judgement so much more then they would your average white man. Its so blatant and disgusting.
It's things like this that piss me off...
Latino stereotype???
truthhurts replied on
Latinos are the ones creating the stereotype--I went to a high school in the San Joaquin Valley in the 70's and I can tell you the stereotype came from what the hell the Latino's where doing--it seems like less than 20% of Latino's in America are acting like American citizens being a part of the wheel instead of feeding off of it-practicing birth control-speaking english, attending college, holding jobs, creating businesses--the American Dream is for all who wish to truly be an American--not for the half-hearted here to see what they can get for free and send back to Mexico--if Mexico wants the US to support its population then Mexico needs to beg to be part of the US--this arrogant attitude with the hand out is truly what causes most of the bad feelings towards Latino's--It seems that Latino's kind of like to hide behind that "victim" status all the time--you are only a victim if you want to be.
I am sick of the victim, stereotype, and continual harping of racism of latinos by whites--many whites lost everything and their lives in the Civil War to protect Blacks right to be free--don't hear their names during black history month --do we?? and now a black man is in the white house voted in mostly by white voters--oh we are so racist--OMG! cut the crap and the "stereotypes that are pushed on us" bull--Walk into any welfare office or disability office in this nation and take a look--if 80% of the people there were not Hispanic --asking for money with 5 kids in tow, a pregnant wife and girlfriend and any girls over 15 pregnant--there would not be a stereotype for others to relay.But that this is exactly what you see in the welfare office--if it wasn't true then why do you have to speak spanish to work in these places--Huh? why are all the signs in these offices in spanish--think about it--supply and demand--not a stereotype--these conditions are real and effect all of us in America as it is our tax dollars being absorbed by another countries inability to take care of their own--why isn't Mexico blamed in this mess--if they had their s@!# together--Americans would be defecting to mexico--hell the weather is better and there is more tropical coastline--the US pays for Mexico being on its border everyday why not get some benefits of ownership.

Medication Errors: Causes, Prevention, Liability, and the Apology
Van Dusen, Virgil, Pray, W Steven, Drug Topics
Medication errors are a serious problem for pharmacists and society. Pharmacists fill the vast majority of I prescriptions or drug orders correctly, but even in the best-managed pharmacies errors still occur. Although medication errors are small in number, they may have a devastating effect on the patient and pharmacist. Fortunately policies can be implemented and technology used to reduce the error rate. This article explores the common causes of medication errors, error-prevention strategies, and possible liability, as well as how the pharmacist should respond to the patient after an error.
Medication error defined and identified
Medication errors are caused by a number of "wrongs," The wrong drug may have been prescribed or dispensed, the wrong strength dispensed, or wrong directions placed on the label. A provider may fail to give a medication or the patient may be noncompliant, failing to take a medication when prescribed. The definition of an error is any incorrect event occurring during the process of medication use.1
The National Coordinating Council for Medication Error Reporting and Prevention defines a medication error as "any preventable event that may cause or lead to inappropriate medication use or patient harm while the medication is in the control of the healthcare professional, patient, or consumer. Such events may be related to professional practice; healthcare products, procedures, and systems, including prescribing; order communication; product labeling; packaging; nomenclature; compounding; dispensing; distribution; administration; education or monitoring; and use."2
Adverse drug event. In contrast an adverse drug event (ADE) is a medication-induced injury. Some ADEs are not medication errors (e.g., an allergic reaction in a patient with no history of allergy is an ADE). Other ADEs, however, are caused by errors.3 ADEs are common in hospitals, nursing homes, and outpatient/community settings.
Experts estimate that 1.5 million preventable ADEs occur yearly in the United States.4 A recent report from the Department of Health and Human Services indicates that among hospitalized Medicare beneficiaries, adverse events related to medication account for 31 % of total events.5 In these patients, events involving temporary harm were related to medication most commonly at 42%. Finally, medication-related preventable events were assessed at 50 %.5
Audit methods. Audits of completed pharmacy orders can identify medication errors. Researchers conduct random inspections of prescriptions in community pharmacies awaiting patient pickup. The actual contents of the vial are compared with the drug and strength listed on the label to discover whether an incorrect medication or an incorrect strength of the correct medication was wrongly dispensed. Researchers also compare the patient's name on the label to the identifying information on the outer bag to help detect wrong-patient errors.
Comparing information entered into the computer with the vial label using these methods is a powerful tool for determining the accuracy with which pharmacist and technician enter data and for reducing errors. When these investigative methods were employed in an outpatient medication-error prevention program at a Veteran's Administration outpatient pharmacy, the error rate decreased from 0,6% to 0,1% in just 12 months.6
History of errors
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has lately focused much attention on medication errors, but medication errors have always plagued pharmacy. The 1848 Code of Ethics of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy identified 4 specific reasons for errors (e.g., bad handwriting) often still significant today (Table I),7 To combat bad handwriting, a 2007 IOM study suggested that individual "states should enact legislation consistent with and complementary to the Medicare Modernization Act's electronic prescribing provisions and remove existing barriers to such prescribing,"4

(All In Less Than 5 Days)
I want to become a better entrepreneur and start making more money.
I don't want to make more money, even if I could do so in 5 days or less.
Well we're in 2012 and no doubt many business owners are thinking about freshening up their web presence. But with terms such as FTP, bandwidth, bounce rate and UX style they can soon be left dizzy by the prospect.
The truth is, running a web site does not need to be difficult or expensive. Here are some of the most typical myths surrounding the design and management of business web sites, and why they do not hold water.
Granted, the price of one's new web site will depend on how big it's and just how much development is required. But generally speaking, you should not be paying the earth for small business websites.
"5 Practical Things Every Entrepreneur Must Know"
If your web site is simply a handful of static pages, with some information about who you are, what you do and where you are based, even if you are paying for a bespoke design, the final cost shouldn't be in the tens of thousands of pounds category.
If you're thinking about freshening up a web presence – then thats a good thing, it shows your proactive and want to build your business. However, if you think that putting a new website out there will see instant results, then you're mistaken. Unless you have a totally unique product, chances are there are several competitors all vying for the same business as you – so you have to stand out, by making sure customers find you first ahead of the rest. To do this you need to look at online advertising methods such as SEO or Pay per click.
Unless your friend is a professional web designer then you have to rule this method out instantly. Whilst as pointed out above a website doesn't have to cost thousands, you still need to make sure it looks the part. 9 times out of 10 taking this route results in something that lacks credibility, and ultimately ends up costing you more money.
Most web software programs will not cost you a penny. The great thing about the totally free options is that they're not the most popular options because they are totally free, but because they are often the very best solutions.
For example, you are able to use WordPress for your website, OpenCart for the online shop, phpBB for the forum and osTicket for the support.
If any internet designer or agency wants to charge you for installing Google Analytics on to your website, they're really trying to make money off you.
Google Analytics is totally free software and also the installation ought to be included in the web design work at no additional price. If they intend to invoice you for the it as a separate cost they're trying to trade on your lack of knowledge in this area. Adding the tracking code to a internet page is at most a 15 second job, and that's if they do it slowly.
What other myths have you come across?
Thanks for the post Jonathan! These are all good points and #2 and 3 are the biggest problems. You need to actively promote your site to get people to it just like any business. Period. I don't know why people still don't get this but apparently they don't. Extending a helping hand to a friend is great, but not when it comes to business. Your bottom line is most important when you are running your business and always need to invest in results. However, if you have a friend who is a professional web designer and is really good at what they do, then you shouldn't take advantage of their friendship. Either pay them what they are worth or compensate them appropriately in some other way (i.e. giving them a share in your company or some discounts on your products). Don't expect your friend to sacrifice for YOUR business. Doing so is both taking advantage of a friendship and business relationship and you can be assured bad karma on both ends.
Websites don't need to be inherently expensive, but at the same time don't settle for the cheapest thing out there either. Cheap web hosting usually results in slow response times, down servers, etc. Anyone telling you differently is flat out lying to you.
[…] http://epiclaunch.com/5-myths-about-small-business-websites/ […]
True! it does not have to be expensive or complicated. Today, there are many templates or content management systems out there at no or very little costs. So if the business does not need a lot of fancy features…

When you do something hastily you rush through it in a hurried manner. If you write an essay hastily, don't expect an A.
Haste is speed, so if you do something hastily, you're just doing it too fast. When a job should take time, like building a house, but it's done hastily, something often goes wrong. If you hastily leave the dinner table without explaining yourself, people will think you're rude.

Hey, I'm Claude!
With my godson Oscar (13), his younger sister Adele (11) and their parents Nathalie and Philippe, we will be spending a few days in NYC this summer and will need a place to stay from August 6 to August 11.
The 5 of us have developed the habit of spending quality time together in summer: we usually travel away from Europe for 2 or 3 weeks, and we have elected the US of A this year. Last summer, we went to the Carribeans and the year before we had traveled to India.
Both Adele and Oscar are delighful kids, extremely well-behaved. Adele is keen on dancing and gymnastics, and Oscar just loves cycling and skateboarding.
Nathalie is an environmental engineer who has occupied different positions, in France and abroad - notably as a technical advisor of Ministers. Philippe and I are teachers. Philippe has lived and worked in "Lycees Francais" in Africa (Cameroon and RCA) for close to 10 years, with regional ICT and pedagogical responsibilities in addition to teaching.
As for me, I have managed a European online educational programme for France ((URL HIDDEN) (URL HIDDEN) for the past 3 years, and will move on to teaching at university from September on. I have lived and traveled extensively in the US: I studied at KU in Lawrence, Kansas, as well as at UC Berkeley.
We are really looking forward to staying in NYC and discovering the city with the children!
Do not hesitate to get in touch with us should you need more information.

Taylor to sponsor Town Hall Meeting
Published: Thursday, September 7, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 7, 2006 at 7:30 a.m.
WASHINGTON - U.S. Rep. Charles Taylor, (R-Brevard) will sponsor a Town Hall Meeting on Immigration with special guest U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo. Tancredo, (R-Colo.), is the chairman of the 104-member bipartisan Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus, of which Taylor is also a member.
Both lawmakers are outspoken advocates of immigration reform. The meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday in Thomas Auditorium of the Sink Building at Blue Ridge Community College.
"Illegal immigration is one of the biggest problems facing our nation, and it is a huge concern among my constituents," Taylor said.
"Last fall, more than 2,000 residents in my district co-signed a letter from me to President Bush asking for immediate and meaningful immigration reform. I am proud to say that the plan supported by so many people in Western North Carolina became one of the cornerstones of the immigration reform bill that was recently passed by the U.S. House."
U.S. House members have been holding hearings on immigration and immigration reform in key areas of the country for the past several weeks.

OU fan accused of gruesome injury to man clad in UT shirt
By SEAN MURPHY
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY -- To some University of Oklahoma football fans, there are things that just aren't done in the heart of Sooner Nation, and one of them is to walk into a bar wearing a Texas Longhorns T-shirt.
That's exactly what touched off a bloody skirmish that left a University of Texas fan nearly castrated and an Oklahoma fan facing aggravated assault charges that could put him in prison for up to five years.
The case has set off a raging debate in this football-crazed region about the extreme passions behind a bitter rivalry. Some legal observers even question whether this case could ever truly have an impartial jury.
"I've actually heard callers on talk radio say that this guy deserved what he got for wearing a Texas T-shirt into a bar in the middle of Sooner country," said Irven Box, an attorney in this city 20 miles from OU's campus in Norman.
Police say Brian Christopher Thomas, 32, walked into Henry Hudson's Pub on June 17 wearing a Longhorns T-shirt and quickly became the focus of football trash talk from another regular, Sooners fan Allen Michael Beckett, 53.
Thomas told police that when he went to the bar to pay his tab, Beckett grabbed him in the crotch, pulled him to the ground and wouldn't let go, even as other bar patrons tried to break it up.
It took more than 60 stitches to close the wound, and police interviewed Thomas at a nearby hospital.
Beckett's attorney, Billy Bock, concedes that his client commented about Thomas' shirt but said that it was just good-natured ribbing and that he apologized to Thomas when it appeared to upset the Texas fan. Later, Bock said, Thomas approached his client at the bar and threatened him.
Thomas' attorney disputes Beckett's version. "That's total malarkey," Hughes said. "My client never said a word to him. He got up to pay and when he paid and left a tip, the guy grabbed him."
Beckett, a church deacon, federal auditor and former Army combat veteran, has pleaded not guilty. His next court appearance comes Oct. 4, two days before the Sooners and Longhorns tangle in their annual football game at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Additional Information
About Fondo EsperanzaFondo Esperanza (FE) is a private non-profit organization that supports entrepreneurship by providing micro-credit and training to people living in poverty in well over 100 cities throughout Chile. By providing these services, FE aims to improve the living conditions of the entrepreneurs and their families. In 2010, FE provided loans to more than 41,000 entrepreneurs. It utilizes a communal banking model in which groups of 18 to 25 clients meet on regularly and guarantee each other's loans. The members use their portion of the loan to create or expand their own businesses. In the group meetings, clients receive training though the FE Entrepreneurship School, which enhances clients' personal and business skills and ability to work in groups.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I have dual heat pumps, 1 in the attic and 1 in the basement. My question is how do I insulate the attic to be the most enery efficient?
The house is 3000 sq ft., built in 1970, with ~5 in of blown in insulation in the attic. There are 3 square 12" roof vents cut in along the south face of the roof and none on the north side. However, the previous owner had heating wires on the rain gutters on the none vented side.
Since the heat pump sits in the attic and it looks like there have been roof ventilation problems, I'm not sure how best to insulate the heat pump.
I am aware of the "cold roof" design which should stop the icing problem caused by the lack of air along the underside of the roof. However, in the winter the heat pump is in the unconditioned space of the house and will really have to work hard to heat the 2nd floor.
I've thought about either wrapping the heat pump and flexible ducts (already insulated) with more insulation. Also, I've considered building a an insulated knee wall and ceiling around the heat pump and octopus-like ducting system to create a semi-conditioned space for the heat pump and ducts and still allow the roof to be cold to prevent ice dams.
The heat pump is a few years old and has an energy efficienct rating.
Also in the summer the attic is very hot. There is no ridge vent and I really don't want to cut one in. There are gable vents with a fan on one end. The roof is a standard pitch and has asphalt type shingles.
I've thought about a whole house fan to draw out the hot summer air. However, the loose insulation is not covered by plywood, so I'm concered that it will blow around.
So, what's the best solution? What do I do about the heat pumps, ducts and ventalation?

1Take a little while to look around the school before the first day if you can. Make sure that you know your way to all of your classes. Make sure that you know your locker combination. This way you will be less stressed when you get to school the first day.

Beautiful and clean B&B that was very comfortable and inviting. The great room, deck and hot tub were very relaxing. Breakfasts in the large kitchen were excellent and a little different from a standard breakfast. We saw the greatest full moon rise on our first night there, right after a bald eagle flew by and perched on a distant tree.... More

PITTSBURGH — Part of baseball's charm is that schedule reveals all. In the standings. In the coaches. In the players. In the front office. The Rockies raced off to a terrific start, winning 13 of their first 17 games, creating purple-colored prism through which to view the season. It has faded black over the last two weeks. Counting Sunday's 5-1 matinee defeat to the Pirates, the Rockies have won just six times in their last 17 games while dropping seven games in the standings since July 19.

Family Saga
A Price for Everything by Mary Sheepshanks
Book Description
Lady Sonia Duntan loves her family home although it is falling into ruin. She is determined to preserve the house and the lifestyle and almost wrecks her family in the process.
Book Review
This book is hilariously funny in parts but also has some very sad passages. It is a tale of Sonia, Lady Duntan, and her quest to preserve the family home which is in disrepair and will cost a fortune to repair and maintain. Bits are falling from the ceiling and water comes in at numerous places. Sonia drifts through her days, paining for an upcoming exhibition, hoping for a miracle and alienating her husband.
The family are rich in land but have no cash so renovation is a real problem. What makes this book special is the quality of the language used, reminiscent of theAustinera but not coming over as pretentious and with a lot of humour. It reveals a glimpse of upper class English country life, drinks before dinner, drinks after, a wine cellar, port to finish, the son at boarding school, and the children allowed up late on special occasions. There is an estate manager, gardener, cook, and various other staff. The four children of the family are described excellently and are very likeable characters. There are also hilariously drawn characters like the dreadful cook who can't cook, the rather grubby monk and the eccentric and very rich mother-in-law. There are gems of word pictures like, a bleakness in her voice 'like an icy wind penetrating a Barbour', or maintaining a stiff upper lip in a highly emotional situation, 'get some tissues and let's both suck on a polo to pull ourselves together.'
Both Sonia and her husband Archie both go off the rails a bit but are given lots of support and advice from their numerous friends. There is a satisfactory, if a bit predictable ending, but there is a typo error on page 136(paperback) and glaringly annoying spelling mistakes, 'sewing' seeds instead of 'sowing', and 'pearl' instead of 'purl' describing knitting, but as I frequently say, proofing is not what it used to be.
This is a quick but quality read.

Description of Research ExpertiseMy research interests are in developing novel, multinuclear (23Na, 17O, 13C and 1H) magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopic techniques for the early diagnosis and quantification of physiological and functional aberrations in pathologies such as arthritis, stroke, cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Our pulse sequence developmental approaches exploit quadrupolar spin-dynamics, polarization transfer, multiple quantum coherences, indirect detection via chemical exchange and spin-locking T1ρ MRI for studying molecular dynamics in biological tissues in vivo.
Specifically, T1ρ and Sodium MRI techniques are designed to map proteoglycan molecules (e.g. aggrecan) in cartilage as a biomarker for early arthritis in vivo. T1ρ MRI is also targeted to impart novel contrast in various tissue types (brain, connective tissues and tumors), and to detect metabolically produced H217O for studying cerebral blood flow and cerebral oxidative metabolism.
Recent developmental work on chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) based MRI methods is focused on measuring endogenous but low concentration metabolites in the brain, such as glutamate, myoinositol and creatine to address central nervous system disorders. In addition, a creatine CEST method is currently being explored to measure high-energy phosphate metabolism in the myocardium in heart disease.

|Easy pickings:
If you download the HTML documentation for the dev version [1], you'll see that the title (both <title> and <h1>) say "Django 1.5.4 documentation" instead of the correct version.
The same thing happens on the 1.6 version but not on the 1.4 one (unsurprisingly, the 1.5 version has the correct title too).
It seems that the content of the documentation corresponds to the right version and only the title is wrong.
This might be related to #20469.

Off the cuff guess... the build environment is incorrect. Ie, the sphinx build was fed 1.6 source code, but was told the documentation version is 1.5.4.
comment:2 Changed 3 years ago by claudep
Repeating my comment on the duplicate #21394:
"As I can see, this is not a problem with the documentation version itself, but simply with the version number in the title. It might be caused by the way the release variable is defined in docs/conf.py."
I guess the release variable depends on the current Python path, because of from django import VERSION (assuming there are several versions of Django on the build server). To prevent this, we might have to open the relative ../django/__init__.py file and eval its VERSION line.

The patch doesn't work properly. For example, on the 1.6 branch, the VERSION is currently (1, 6, 2, 'alpha', 0) which cause the branch which returns pep386ver + '.dev' which is the version of Django we have on the server + '.dev'. We could continue to try to make this work, although it might be simpler just to revert this trick and the associated sys.path hack as I'm not sure it buys as a whole lot besides one less final to bump on each release:
I'm going to leave a comment on Ramiro's original commit to get his input.
comment:5 Changed 2 years ago by ramiro
AFAICS the change (plus later fixups) is working (i.e doesn't show the wrong title) on:
- Local builds of the docs
- The Read The Docs build servers in all, its versions:
- HTML: https://django.readthedocs.org/
- ePub
For every Django doc version since 1.5 up to master.
I'd say the problem isn't with the code but rather with the docs build environment on our own servers (the ones in charge of creating the HTML tarball that shows the issue).
It's strange that the code works correctly even on external servers that use deployment/building/publishing techniques we don't have control over like the RTD ones.
comment:6 Changed 2 years ago by timo
- Patch needs improvement unset
The documentation builds on our server use the update_docs management command so the first version of Django that's imported is whatever we have the site deployed with (currently 1.5.4 it seems). I believe we need to reload the Django module after modifying sys.path earlier in the file in order to avoid getting that cached version of Django. It seems to work locally for me. What do you think?
Changed 2 years ago by timo
comment:7 Changed 2 years ago by timo
Alternatively, we could revisit our approach of building all versions of the docs as part of one management command/Python process. See #20469 for another issue of state leaking between doc builds.

MIAMI- The so-called "young invincibles" are so important to the success of the Affordable Care Act that supporters and detractors are spending millions to reach them with racy ads, social media campaigns and celebrity endorsements. The president is even asking their mothers to help convince them to sign up for insurance.
The federal government and states running their own exchanges have launched marketing efforts for this crucial demographic of healthy young adults, but it's unclear if the messages are getting through.
Eric Fisher, a 28-year-old from Salt Lake City, said he still hasn't seen any of the social media campaigns - one of which targets Utah residents with images of people snowboarding and rock climbing.
Article Photos
AP Photo - In this Nov. 9 photo, Thomas Vazquez, center left, 18, high-fives an Uncle Sam mascot while tailgating before the start of an NCAA college football game between Miami and Virginia Tech, in Miami Gardens, Fla. It may be the hottest tailgate party
He tried to sign up online when the federal marketplace first launched but couldn't because of the long wait times and other website glitches. He said he'll try again at some point. He added that the historic health care overhaul isn't a topic he and his friends spend much time talking about.
"It's not like a coffee table conversation," Fisher said.
According to a recent Harvard survey, many of Fischer's peers are undecided.
A poll by Harvard's Institute of Politics shows about 40 percent of people between the ages of 18 and 29 are on the fence about whether to sign up, with the rest split fairly evenly between those likely to enroll and those who probably won't.
The survey of 2,000 young adults was conducted from Oct. 30 to Nov. 11, after the first month of enrollment on the health care exchanges and when sign-up problems were at their peak.
Consisting of healthy college students and twenty-somethings, the so-called "young invincible" demographic is the holy grail of the Affordable Care Act. Insurers need their participation to offset the costs of covering older, sicker Americans. If enough young people decide not to buy insurance through state or federal marketplaces, it could throw off the market's equilibrium and cause insurance rates to rise dramatically the following year.
Federal officials haven't released detailed demographic information on who's enrolled so far, so it's not clear how many young people have signed up.
Ad campaigns in many states are courting undecided young adults. In Colorado, a nonprofit group created a series of provocative "got insurance?" ads. One features a blonde standing next to a life-sized cut-out of celebrity heartthrob Ryan Gosling with the caption, "Hey girl, you're excited about easy access to birth control and I'm excited about getting to know you. She got insurance." Another touting "Brosurance" encourages men doing a keg stand not to tap into their beer money to cover medical bills. When the exchange launched, models wearing nothing but underwear and "Get Covered" signs passed out fliers in downtown Denver.
Shmuel Johnson, who works in Los Angeles at a small sound studio, hasn't seen any ads or perused the state's health exchange.
"There's this elitist attitude that (politicians) think they know what's better for us than ourselves and that's part of why I take issue with this. I'm being forced to do something that's not necessarily in my best interest," said Johnson, a 31-year-old who's never had insurance. "I don't need insurance, man. I'm healthy."

Di Matteo: Chelsea were lucky
ROBERTO DI MATTEO admitted Chelsea were lucky after Victor Moses kept them on course for the Champions League promised land.
Di Matteo's European champions will now escape from Group E if they can take four points from their last two games.
But the Italian admitted they rode their luck after Victor Moses headed the winner right at the death.
He said: "In terms of the timing of the winner I agree there was an element of luck because it was the last action of the game.
We did a lot of good things "But we deserved to win. We did a lot of good things and put them under pressure.
"But we made things diffi-cult for ourselves. We need to work on being able to see out games. When I made the substitution the idea was to refresh the team and give the opposition something else to be worried about.
"The spirit my group showed again to keep going to the end - we knew we had to score at the end and we did. It was good that Victor Moses got on the end of that corner.
"We knew we could score with the last kick and that is exactly what happened.
"It gives us a good chance to qualify. We need points out of the last two games.
"Now it's probably going to go down to the last kick of the last game in this group."
Shakhtar came back twice with goals from Willian after Fernando Torres and Oscar had fired Chelsea in front, but a late headed winner from Moses left both sides level on points at the top.
Di Matteo left John Terry on the bench - the first time the Blues skipper has been dropped for such a big game in years.
But the Italian defended his decision and claimed he is still Chelsea's leader.
He said: "John Terry is a massive player for us. He is going to be our leader going forward.
"Considering he's had one competitive game in four weeks, I thought we needed players who were 100 per cent match fit.
"How did he take it? I'm not going to comment on private conversations - but it's not easy to tell a player he's not starting."

I was looking at Schein's online catalog and found several other laser units listed besides the Waterlase. Some are a lot smaller in size. Does anybody know if the Waterlase is the best one based on performance alone or cost versus performance.
There are several different types of lasers in Scheins catalog...that also is a problem...they have a deal with Biolase but also sell competetive product lines..1. The smaller units are diode lasers. They are all about the same in performance....like a car they have bells and whistles...some use a long fiber like a fishing line....others like the ez lase or the zap use disposable tips.....there price ranges from about $3500 the picasso to around 15,ooo for ez lase and zap...The zap unit is kool it is the size of a pen you can place it in your pocket...but it come at the upper end in price....I have a biolase laser smile i like it for soft tissue procedures and for LLLT low level laser therapy..you can get the same performance out of the EZ Lase.2. I think the only hard tissue laser that Schein sells is the Biolase products. There are some competitive lines out there and Lares(direct sales) has raided Biolase's luminary group. They also have FDA clearance on Endo tips like Biolase.

I love this plugin. It is just what WordPress needs. When I build sites, I often build them locally with MAMP, then move the site to it's new host home and update the URL references to the new .com.
The problem is, when I use this method after having configured this plugin, I lose my text widgets. They don't drop to "recently used" widgets, they just go away. And only text widgets.
I have tried deactivating the plugin, then updating the database, then reactivating the plugin, and on reactivation, it drops the text widgets immediately.
I thought I'd bring this to your attention, Lately, what I've been doing is just not using the plugin until after I setup the site on it's home, but that's easier said than done sometimes.
Any ideas?

OSU AD Mike Holder still eyeing Big D
OU and Texas have played in the Cotton Bowl every year since 1929. Texas A&M and Arkansas have agreed to play in Arlington each of the next 10 seasons. Baylor will play Texas Tech in Arlington this October and in the Cotton Bowl in 2010. Is anyone missing from this picture? Oklahoma State now is the only Big 12 South school without an annual game in Greater Dallas. Is no Big D a big deal? State athletic director Mike Holder isn't crazy about the exclusion, especially since he worked hard to establish a neutral-site series with Tech. Dallas is prime recruiting ground for every South school, plus Arkansas, which is a Big 12 South member emeritus, having been in the Southwest Conference from 1915 to 1991 and having played OSU 28 times from 1950 through 1980. Playing in Dallas has been beneficial to the Sooners and Longhorns for almost a century. Now others want to share that stage. "We're the only team in the South that doesn't have a game in Dallas," Holder said. "We're probably forced to look outside the conference." Holder said a lot of names have been mentioned but nothing has gone past brainstorming. So let's toss out a couple of names for public consumption. Louisiana State and Texas Christian. Enticing LSU to Dallas might be difficult; if the Tigers are going to play an off-campus game, New Orleans will be their first choice. But the Tigers recruit in Texas, and the Dallas promoters — Jerry Jones and the Cotton Bowl — are well-organized and well-funded. The Les Miles/Mike Gundy matchup would be rich in plot, but an OSU-LSU series has to rise above personalities. Maybe it would. An OSU-TCU series definitely would. The Cowboys would be at a geographic disadvantage, since the Frogs would be playing either 15 or 30 miles from their Fort Worth home. But OSU has a ton of alums in the Metroplex, maybe approaching the number of TCU alums. OSU-TCU would be a very competitive matchup; the Frogs have grown fangs under coach Gary Patterson. Of course, there is nothing wrong with playing no off-campus games. Every Big 12 South school has sunk a ton of money into stadium renovation, so it seems weird to take games elsewhere. But with every peer going to Dallas for a big autumn weekend, OSU doesn't want to be left out from playing in a very important territory.

CLEVELAND - In speeches here last week AFL-CIO President Rich Trumka attacked right-wing efforts to use the federal budget deficit as an excuse to block programs needed to end the economic crisis.
"The United States does not have a short-term debt problem," Trumka stressed at a town hall meeting Thursday sponsored by the North Shore AFL-CIO and in a speech Friday at the City Club. "It has a short-term jobs crisis. We may have a mid-term or long-term deficit problem that we can get to. But now is not the time to go on an austerity program and kick us back into a recession. That is a bad policy that will lead us to disaster."
He blasted the Senate Republicans and some Democrats who have used the deficit as an excuse and voted to deny extending benefits to the long-term unemployed,
"There are six and half million long-term unemployed," Trumka said. "If they suddenly stop spending it would be a huge broadside hit to the economy. We cannot grow our way out of deficit by getting smaller."
The current recovery, he said, is "very fragile."
Trumka cited the example of Japan, which he said for 10 years during the 1990s kept initiating stimulus programs and then pulling back.
"Their economy stalled," Trumka said. "They call it the lost decade. We cannot afford a lost decade in the United States."
"There is no recovery until we fill the 11 million job hole created since the recession began," he declared. Real unemployment in the U.S., he said, is 25 million, if part-time and discouraged workers are counted.
The AFL-CIO has put forward a far-reaching program to address the crisis. The program includes rebuilding the nation's infrastructure, aiding state and local governments to maintain jobs and services, public jobs programs in hard-hit communities, using funds paid back in the Wall Street bailout to help local banks, as well as extending benefits to the unemployed.
Wall Street is mounting "massive resistance" to such programs, Trumka said, noting, "There are four lobbyists for every member of Congress" fighting regulation of the financial industry which caused the crisis.
Trumka also issued a stern warning about the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, which is to issue a report in December and is considering recommending cuts in Social Security and Medicare.
Fourteen of the 18 members appointed by the Obama administration are "fiscal conservatives," Trumka said.
"Social Security is the most successful anti-poverty program in history," he said. Social Security is not part of the federal budget and has no effect on the deficit. Commission members, he said, say cutting Social Security is a way of showing bond-holders that Democrats are ready to make sacrifices, but, Trumka said, cutting the program, either by raising the retirement age or reducing benefits, is "playing with dynamite."
Social Security, he said, will have no solvency problem for decades and then it can be easily fixed by raising the "cap" - the maximum income that is taxed - now set at $106,800.
"We believe that every American should be able to retire with 70 percent of their take-home pay," Trumka said. "And for low-income people, it should be higher."

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
