More people with a learning disability in temples
The Hindu religion does offer a reason why people have the lives they have. "Hindus believe in karma," says Karen Patel*, the vice-president of a London-based Hindu organisation. "This means deeds in a past life determine our present life. What goes around comes around."
She would like to see more people with a learning disability in temples. "They'd meet people and enjoy a sense of peacefulness."
But she thinks some habits and customs are causing people with a learning disability to miss out. "English people take them [people with profound and multiple learning disabilities] out, but we don't. There's one girl who's 16 in the community that I've only ever seen here in the temple twice. Enough is not done."
The reasons why some South Asian families may sometimes be less inclined to take their children who have a learning disability into the community include fear of stigma, low expectations and protectiveness.
Dr Raghu Raghavan, who worked as a consultant on the Aawaaz project in Bradford, says, "Some [South Asian] families may not want others to be aware of their disabled son or daughter because of stigma. Having a child with learning disabilities may also have consequences [for] future marriage prospects."
The protectiveness of parents can be a particularly strong barrier to socialisation in the case of girls and women with a learning disability as their reputations are seen as being more easily damaged.
"But no communities are unsupportive of people with a learning disability," he adds.
Huge contributions
Christianity faces similar problems with accessibility as other religions. In a bid to make church services more accessible, an organisation called Causeway Prospects has set up over 160 church-based groups that make Christian worship and teaching more accessible.
"People with a learning disability can make huge contributions to churches," says Causeway Prospects' director of corporate affairs, David Bendor-Samuel.
"They don't come to us to have their disability 'taken away'. We come together to grow and together experience a fuller life. We learn from each other and explore what is means to be human, people created by God," he adds.
Whatever their background, it is clear many people with a learning disability enjoy being part of a faith community.
John Swindon, professor in Practical Theology and Pastoral Care at the University of Aberdeen, says he has been struck by the level of interest in religion and spirituality among people with a learning disability.
"The sense of community, friendship and being valued is very important to them," he says. "I think it's worthwhile exploring the spiritual aspects of life and these options should be available to people with a learning disability."

I am aware that there exists tools that can change the mbr of the drive so that it can boot up multiple operating systems such as the Windows XP installer, Windows 7 installer, Windows PE-based live environment, and a linux live environment with software like this: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/120444-how-to-install-windows-from-usb-winsetupfromusb-with-gui/
But all these things are made possible via grub4dos or some variant of that. How would I access the uefi boot options from the Windows 7 installer, for installing in UEFI mode? Some linux distributions such as Ubuntu now also support UEFI mode as well. How would I have a menu, like the grub option, for accessing individual UEFI modes of the images?
Thank you.

Current Driver Support - Where?!!
This review is from: BELKIN 2 PORT USB 3.0 PCIE Card Model F4U023
Pros: It's a "super speed" USB 3.0 so it works with my Blackmagic intensity shuttle...
Cons: ...but the drivers that come with this Belkin F4U023 are packed in a single exe, so no manual install of drivers without running the setup file from the CD. For windows 7 x64 SP1 the drivers seemed to have "maybe" caused some conflicts with my Marvel Yukon network adapter. THERE ARE NO apparent downloadable new drivers from Belkin.com for this at this time (9/10/2011) which is really irritating.
Other Thoughts: To me it's REALLY aggravating when these manufactures do not include download links to their drivers.

This review is from: BELKIN 2 PORT USB 3.0 PCIE Card Model F4U023
Pros: Needed more controllers than onboard to allow for some disc duplicators to run at full speed. These cards are OK, they are not the fastest USB3.0 speeds (my asrock mobo's ports are faster) but they work OK. Drivers worked fine on win xp, going to try win 7 64bit today.
Cons: For some reason I can't get two cards to work at the same time. Haven't ruled out my own hardware yet though, so it may be just me. Overpriced. There was an asus card for much less that did USB3.0 and sata 6gbps on one card for much less than this one. Also, would have preferred 4 ports on 1 card, but its unavailable.
Other Thoughts: take a page from asus and combine what people want on 1 card.

ADDISON COUNTY — This winter's relentless snowfall has not only strained residents' patience, but it has also stretched town budgets and worn out highway workers, according to at least a small sample of local municipal officials and road foremen.
Not only have expenses for materials like sand and salt gone up, but labor costs have also risen as road crews have worked long hours trying to keep roads and sidewalks clear. Meanwhile repair bills have also mounted as equipment has been pushed to the limit.
VERGENNES — On March 1, residents of Addison, Ferrisburgh, Panton and Waltham will be offered a choice on how their towns will in the future fund the Bixby Free Memorial Library.
The Vergennes library, which serves the four towns as well as its host city, has always been listed on the Town Meeting Day ballot in each community as a charitable entity making a specific funding request — except in Vergennes, where aldermen have always included the library in their budget.

Ubisoft Propose Resetting Ghost Recon: AW Leaderboards
Written Tuesday, October 05, 2010 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Ubisoft is proposing resetting the Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter leaderboards ahead of the impending release of Ghost Recon: Future Soldier in 2011.
If you head over to the Ubisoft forums, you can cast your vote as to whether or not you want the reset to go ahead, as Ubisoft's UK Forum Manager explains in a forum post.
"Ok guys so this subject has been up for much debate and truth be told we decided the best thing to do was ask you all what you would like us to do.
"With the GRFS release a little way off the suggestion of resetting the GRAW leaderboard has come up for discussion, the question is whether you would like us to or not?"
To register your vote, hit the link to the UK Forums, sign in or register a Ubisoft Forum login and then have your say. If the leaderboard reset goes ahead, you'll then be in with a shout of earning GRAW's three leaderboard-related achievements.

Bought eight years ago by the billionaire Bouygues brothers, Montrose has been transformed at huge cost, and is set to be a showcase for green wineries everywhere. Jane Anson visits an estate that looks determined to dominate the next decade...
Montrose started life as part of Calon Ségur's garden, until Etienne Dumoulin, the owner in the early 19th century, noticed a gravel outcrop sloping down to the Garonne river that stood out for its dusky beauty. He marked it out as a separate property, building a château and planting vines. In 1824, Etienne's son Théodore sold Calon, but kept Montrose. This turned out to have been a smart move, as only 30 years later Montrose beat Calon to second growth status at the Paris exhibition (Calon had to make do with third growth).
Martin and Olivier Bouygues, billionaire owners of the global Bouygues construction and communications group, are currently in charge, after buying Montrose in 2006. They are among the most influential and powerful owners in the 1855 rankings. They may hold only 21% of the shares in the construction company their father founded in 1952, but Forbes Magazine still estimated their worth in 2013 at $3.4bn (£2bn), making them the tenth-wealthiest individuals in France. They spent €140m (£116m) of that to secure Montrose, and the story behind the purchase gives a great insight into what it means to be number 10 on the French Forbes Rich List.
Montrose was a favourite wine of their father, and Martin had been buying it for his own cellar for several years. 'My husband first drank Montrose in Santa Barbara in 1995, when friends we were staying with served a bottle of the 1990,' says Melissa, his American wife and president of Montrose. He tasted it, loved it, called his wine merchant (Jean-François Moueix, whose company, Videlot, currently owns a small percentage of the estate) with a request to buy as many cases as possible, and vowed to buy the château itself, if it ever came on the market. When he heard 10 years later that it was up for sale, he flew immediately down to Bordeaux and signed.'
The brothers signalled their intention to make an impact on this St-Estèphe property by securing the services of ex-Haut-Brion director Jean-Bernard Delmas. Now retired from full-time management, Delmas still consults on winemaking, handing over day-to-day running to another former first growth director, Hervé Berland, who joined Montrose in 2012 after 35 years at Mouton Rothschild. Bearing in mind that there is a highly limited pool of these men in Bordeaux, you get an idea of how persuasive the Bouygues must be. There are no first growths in St-Estèphe (there are only two second growths, Montrose sharing the honours with Cos d'Estournel), but the arrival of Delmas and then Berland could not have been a clearer expression of their desire for Montrose to be judged in the same breath.
Figureheads sorted, the Bouygues turned to what they do best; lavishing (a reported) €20m (£17m) on refurbishing the château itself, and on renovations and new installations. These began in 2007, a year into their ownership, and are only now approaching completion (technical installations were finished by the 2013 harvest, but landscaping and other final details continued until the April en primeur tastings).
Even before this, however, changes to the style of the wine have been evident. Montrose has long been known for its ageing ability and its classic, slightly tight, austere style when young. This has been fleshed out, polished, and given every chance of success through geological terroir studies, smart vineyard practices and one of the most advanced, dazzling wineries in the region – with the results of all this work unveiled through a series of small lunches, rather than one lavish dinner.
The latter is no surprise; Melissa Bouygues is from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and is a master of that effortless Southern welcome, making for a powerful combination with the famously charming Berland (when he started working at the property, the main criticism I heard was that he was possibly 'too nice, too well-mannered' for the steely task of turning Montrose into a global brand).
A trip to the new cellars might convince any remaining doubters that this task is well in hand. Using a combination of local architect Bernard Mazières and historic monument specialist Yves Grémont to respect the 18th-century origins of the château, this has been almost certainly the biggest project in Bordeaux over the past decade – no mean feat among the forest of recent architectural works in this region.
Overseen by Bouygues Rénovation Privée, a specialist arm of Bouygues construction, Montrose has been rebuilt using 95% local workers, wherever possible from the Médoc itself. Pretty much the only non-Bordeaux company involved was Les Pierreux de l'Ile de France, specialists in marble and historic stone work that has done much of the marble detailing (a considerable amount has been designed to resemble Leonardo da Vinci's Italian summer villa). All existing walls have been reinforced and doubled in width with insulation, and inside the cellars, every square inch has been either restored or rebuilt. Besides being a showcase for the wine, Montrose is a showcase for the green credentials of Bouygues construction; the château produces more energy than it consumes through the use of 3,000m2 of solar panels, geothermal energy, water and wind power and dozens of other green choices. A new 1,000m2 barrel cellar is 5m underground and benefits, as Berland points out, from the geographic position of Montrose. He says: 'We are lucky to have plenty of natural ventilation from being so close to the river, so can ensure good movement of air and full aeration in the cellars.'
The result is that the estate's carbon footprint has been halved – without losing those essential Forbes Rich List detailings, such as pipes, wires and cables hidden inside elegant Roman-villa-style pillars within the winery, an abundance of elegant arches inspired by those on Bordeaux's Opera House, an interior decoration by the renowned Jacques Garcia, and a helicopter pad for two… all proof of the family's intention, as author Jean- Charles Chapuzet says in his forthcoming book 1855 Bordeaux, Les Grands Crus Classés, to ensure that 'the next decade belongs to Montrose'.
Written by Jane Anson
Château Montrose at a glance
Location St-Estèphe, next to Châteaux Phélan Ségur, Meyney and Haut-Marbuzet
Area under vine 95ha, one single block of large gravels, sloping down to the river Garonne
Soils Subsoil is sand and clay – but far less clay here than many St-Estèphes, marking it out stylistically
Grapes planted Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), Merlot (32%), Cabernet Franc (6%) and Petit Verdot (2%), planted to 9,000 vines per hectare. Average age of vines is 40 years, with the oldest dating to 1932
Oak policy Around 60% new oak barrels are used, and around 15-20% for the second wine, La Dame de Montrose, with racking every three months, and fining in barrel with fresh egg whites.
Second wine La Dame de Montrose was named after Yvonne Charmolue who ran the estate from 1944 to 1960. Introduced in 1984 by Jean-Louis Charmolue, who named it in honour of his mother
Third wine 2014 sees the introduction of a third wine, Le Saint-Estèphe de Montrose, starting with the 2010 vintage, from 15% of the overall production, so 30,000-50,000 bottles
Sales method 80% en primeur, with 20% of production kept back for own wine library
Consultants Jean-Bernard Delmas, Jean Cordeau (vinegrowing), Eric Boissenot (winemaking), Pierre Becheler (geologist)
Château Montrose: a timeline
1778 Etienne Dumoulin buys Calon Ségur from Nicolas de Ségur. He clears a part of the grounds near the river called La Lande d'Escargeon to build a château and plant vines. This section becomes Château Montrose
1814 Théodore Dumoulin sells Calon Ségur but keeps Montrose
1855 Montrose named a second growth in Paris classification
1861 Théodore Dumoulin dies, having taken Montrose from just a few hectares to a full 50ha (hectares) of vines
1866 The Dumoulin family sells to Mathieu Dollfus, a visionary owner who built houses, streets and squares for the workers, sharing 10% of the profits with them
1887 Dollfus died childless, and Château Montrose is sold to the Hostein brothers, owners of Cos d'Estournel
1896 Louis-Victor Charmolue, owner of Cos d'Estournel, becomes Jean-Jules Hostein's son-in-law and then owner of Montrose. The Charmolue family remains at Montrose for 110 years
1942 An RAF bomber overshoots its target in Pauillac and bombs Château Montrose by mistake, destroying large sections of the vineyard, later rebuilt by the Charmolue family
1976 During the infamous Judgement of Paris tasting, the 1970 vintage of Château Montrose comes third (or second, depending on your statistical analysis)
2006 Martin and Olivier Bouygues become owners, hire Jean-Bernard Delmas and start a 40-year replanting programme
2010 The estate buys 22ha of Phélan Ségur vines, from a plot adjacent to the estate's own vines, which was part of Château Montrose in the 19th century
2012 Former Mouton Rothschild director Hervé Berland joins Montrose after 35 years with the Rothschild family
2014 New winery and cellars opens after seven years of works
Six recommended Chateau Montrose wines
Château Montrose 2010 2CC
19.25/20pts (97/100pts)
Barely stretching its toes. Velvety sweet tannins, pure blackcurrant fruits with an undercurrent of exotic spices from the oak. Beautiful heady perfume, even at this early stage when everything is so tight. Intense in every way, with gripping acidity, from a blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. One to look forward to over the long term.

Château Montrose 2012 2CC
18.25/20pts (94/100pts)
From a blend of 37% Merlot, 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, Montrose managed to take advantage of the good weather that returned in October, and brought in its last grapes on 20 October. Its gravelly soil also meant it fared far better than the more clay-led St-Estèphe terroirs. Great structure with a wonderful floral aroma and touches of cedar, with good persistency. Astringency on the tannins suggests a good life ahead.

Château Montrose 2008 2CC
18.25/20pts (94/100pts)
The first vintage where you really begin to feel the work done by Berland and the Bouygues investment programme. This is still young and needs another good four or five years before softening, but the fruit is already plump, rich and well defined, with concentrated bilberry and blackcurrant purée, an elegant lift of acidity kept in a firm hold of smooth tannins, finished off by that signature smoky seductive Médoc nose. Well priced in 2008, it's an easy recommendation.
Price: £55 (ib)-£115 Berry Bros & Rudd, Coe Vintners, Cult Wines, Frazier's, In Vino Veritas, Justerini & Brooks, Millésima, Nebuchadnezzar, Private Cellar, Z&B
Drink 2018-2035
Alc 13%
La Dame de Montrose 2010 2L
17.75/20pts (92/100pts)
A vintage where you can explore second wines with great confidence. An excellent wine, with a real signature of its big brother, with dark brambly fruits and tight tannins, barely unfurling, it grips the side of your mouth, and needs a good hour or so in a carafe if you are going to drink it in the next few years. I tried the third wine from 2010 also, Le St-Estèphe de Montrose, and while it captures the intense spice of La Dame, it lacks its length and roundness.

Château Montrose 2003 2CC
17.25/20pts (90+/100pts)
Burnt cinnamon, crème de cassis and rich damson jam aromas, there is still good firm fruit here, far more than for many wines of this vintage. On the palate, the spectrum of flavours and aromas is undoubtedly in the 'heavily ripe' arena, with fairly low acidity and autumnal prunes and blackberries and still hints of bitter chocolate. Tasting beautiful right now, it will give lots of drinking pleasure, but I wouldn't wait forever.
Price: £180 Albany Vintners, Ditton Wine, Goedhuis, Lay & Wheeler, Millésima, Nicholls & Perks, Seckford, Vin Est

La Dame de Montrose 2012 2L
17/20pts (90/100pts)
A textbook example of how a second wine should be – a more accessible, joyful echo of the first wine. I loved this at en primeur and still love it now, in contrast to many second wines in this sometimes challenging vintage. Plenty of finesse, with smoky, charred cherries, silky smooth texture and heady perfume. Great value also. From a blend of 76% Merlot and 24% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D structural strength of the SS? http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=56815&th=11550#msg_56815 <![CDATA[Wondering what the difference say between printing a 9" x 1" x 5/16" bar of SS versus using the real thing. Application is a folding chair where some leveraged load will be applied against it. Just wondering if youd say the printed SS can bear loads 90% the same as a solid bar or 50% or 20%... Is it totally not the same material strengthwise when placing leveraged loads on it?

 Say you screw 4" to a board and load the end significantly. Will the solid SS bar far outlast the Printed one?

 General answers are great, I just have no conception of its differences.

 You can actually just input those dimensions in the materials page and get a quote:

Turned on and taking the power back
15 comments so far
I did the maths on my TV. The amount of energy consumed by leaving it in standby for an entire year surprised me. The waste was slightly less than the energy wasted in boiling 2 cups of water from 20 degrees and only using one.

I/m not sure of the point of this post. I don't understand why you shouldn't manage your own power. So we have been babied for decades with cheap power and now that it's not everyone seems put out by the fact they have to wipe their own arses. That's pretty lame. Also, Time of Use billing is not compulsory. I have 3kw solar, a smart meter and flat domestic tariff that I've had for 15 years. It might be a good idea to do some homework first. Also, complaining about the time lag between installation and metering is equally lame. You bloody sook. It's like complaining your 2 minute noodles take a whole 2 MINUTES of your valuable time. There were reasons for the metering lag so just suck it up and be thankful that solar systems are so cheap compared to even 3 years ago.

Thank God I earn enough so I do not need to worry about $600-a-quarter electricity bill. Never turn off standby appliances, enjoying air conditioning, dishwasher and a tumble dryer. It's amusing, though, how precious "Australian Lifestyle" starts to resemble that of Soviet Gulags.

I used to have my PC on overnight downloading games from Steam and other large files I wanted to keep in my off-peak time, but have stopped doing that recently. My last power bill was massive so I too am finding myself doing what I can to reduce unnecessary power usage.
At the moment any large downloads I do overnight, I do on my MacBook Pro since it's much more power efficient than my beastly PC gaming box.
This TonidoPlug seems like it woudl be perfect for me. Would do the job of my Airport Extreme acting as a file server, but be a lot more configurable, and has built in Torrent etc. Colour me interested!

Great. Another thing to totally baffle me. Don't get what this plug thing does. You plug in a USB stick and an ethernet cable and no longer need a PC. So just what interface does this thing have that makes it useful?!

I failed to relate the installation of solar panel to decision of buying a small server - other than a very thin thread of reducing cost of electricity. For me it seemed that the cost benefit analysis of installing solar panel was not too solid thus you need extra effort to reduce consumption. That was the main issue.
And I am a bit sceptical that getting the server you mentioned would significantly reduce your consumption. It does not replace your PC and the difference with NAS' power consumption would be small as well. It's just a cool toy to have. My desktop's average power consumption is around 10 watt - and that is probably something that is worth to be considered more to get - since you already have a NAS.

Most new TV on standby will consume about less than 1 watt.One need to consume 1,000(1kw) to be charged 18 cents.

Maybe I am missing the point but after pressing the button on my TV, the linked DVD or Sat box turns off, as does the Home Theater. At that point I can turn everything off at the wall.
Mind you, if I could sit at my lounge and turn it off at the wall remotely then that would be even better!
Or we could actually live like Quakers and only have to worry about the smoke from the fireplace...

Are you sure? Boiling a cup of tap water (call it 250 ml) requires 84 kJ of energy, assuming your initial temperature of 20 deg C and negilgible heat loss. An appliance consuming 3 watts (a reasonable estimate) on stand-by power for let's say, 18 hours a day for 365 days of the year, would consume 71 MJ, about 845 times more. At 22 cents per kilowatt-hour, the cup of water costs about half a cent to boil, whereas the stand-by power for the appliance costs $4.34.
Perhaps you meant boiling two cups of water EVERY DAY FOR A YEAR. That would make the figures more comparable. Those missing words are crucial.
As an aside, the "wasted" energy of electrical loads is not always actually wasted. For instance, the "waste" power used by appliances is dissipated as heat into the environment (i.e. your house), contributing to the space heating, meaning your heater needs to contribute that much LESS energy during cool weather. Same goes for the "waste" heat of incandescent lamps. Of course, in summer you might not want that heat and you use more energy getting rid of it if you run an air conditioner.

ITIF Unveils 2014 Summer Innovation Reading List
William Dube
WASHINGTON - (June 9, 2014). In an effort to assist summer readers in getting the "best bang for their tech policy buck," the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) is unveiling its annual Innovation and Tech Policy Reading List.
It provides short reviews of the most notable innovation books released over the last year and includes the top reads in innovation-related business, science and R&D, and IT. To also save readers time and money, the list also includes books ITIF does not recommend.
"Each year it seems more and more books are published on innovation and technology policy and wading through which is worth reading can be a chore," notes Robert Atkinson, President of ITIF. "Our summer reading list provides an accessible overview of the major works to help readers in making the best choices."
Recommended titles include: Big Bang Disruption: Strategy in the Age of Devastating Innovation by Larry Downes and Paul Nunes; Open Data Now: The Secret to Hot Startups, Smart Investing, Savvy Marketing, and Fast Innovation by Joel Gurin and Just Say Yes: What I've Learned About Life, Luck, and the Pursuit of Opportunity by Bernard Schwartz. Books on the not recommended list include The Pirate Organization: Lessons from the Fringes of Capitalism by Rodolphe Durand and Jean-Philippe Vergne, and The Myth of America's Decline: Politics, Economics, and a Half Century of False Prophecies by Josef Joffe.
"Innovation policy is incredibly important to spurring economic growth and quality of life," Atkinson adds. "By promoting the analysis and scholarship that best informs the issues and debates we hope to assist in producing better policies and a more informed public."
Read the complete list.
The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) is a non-profit, non-partisan think tank whose mission is to formulate and promote public policies to advance technological innovation and productivity internationally, in Washington, and in the states. Recognizing the vital role of technology in ensuring prosperity, ITIF focuses on innovation, productivity, and digital economy issues. Learn more at www.itif.org.

Reading. Rereading. Hanging out in Simon Snow forums, writing Simon Snow fan fiction, dressing up like the characters for every movie premiere.
Cath?s sister has mostly grown away from fandom, but Cath can?t let go. She doesn?t want to.
Now that they?re going to college, Wren has told Cath she doesn?t want to be roommates. Cath is on her own, completely outside of her comfort zone. She?s got a surly roommate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And she can?t stop worrying about her dad, who?s loving and fragile and has never really been alone.
For Cath, the question is: Can she do this? Can she make it without Wren holding her hand? Is she ready to start living her own life? Writing her own stories? Open her heart to someone?
Or will she just go on living inside somebody else?s fiction?
Cath Avery's experience of the first year of college is like being repeatedly thrown into an icy pond in Rainbow Rowell's tender, funny, and down-to-earth young adult novel. When her twin, Wren, declares that they aren't going to room together, Cath is horrified. She feels no need for new friends and new experiences, after all, they've happily shared a room for 18 years and both love Simon Snow, a Harry Potter-like fictional character. Cath would be happy to stay in, writing fan fiction and avoiding everyone. Contending with a disdainful roommate, a professor who considers fan fiction plagiarism, and an overwhelming new life on campus, Cath struggles to find a way to survive. Rowell is also the author of ELEANOR & PARK.

Dust On Sensor, Behind Glass

Re: Dust under glass is a manufacturing defect
ProfHankD wrote:
Well... some NEX models (e.g., NEX-7) are rumored to have significant air gaps in the sensor filter stack, so it is possible that dust could move between the layers. Does it move after the camera does an ultrasonic sensor vibration sensor clean pass? If so, I suppose some careful prompting might send the dust out of the way... and the ultrasonic cleaning may be how the dust got there.
Nope, I've used the camera's sensor cleaning feature more times than I can count in the last few days, and the speck is still there in the same spot as I initially noticed it. I think I'll take my 5N to a local camera shop and have them evaluate it, and if they verify that the culprit is behind the glass, I'll contact Sony for a repair.

How to Forward Yahoo Mail
Three Methods:Forwarding a Received MessageAuto-Forwarding MailForwarding Messages in BulkCommunity Q&A
Forwarding messages is a great way to pass an interesting message onto a friend or coworker, but it can also be a quick way to backup or transfer your messages to another service. If you no longer want to use the Yahoo! Mail interface, you can have all of your Yahoo! mail automatically forwarded to a different address. If you want to forward a bunch of messages at once, you'll need to use a mail client to work around the lack of support on the Yahoo! Mail site.
Method 1
Forwarding a Received Message
1Open the message that you want to forward. If you want to forward a single email to someone, you can do so from the Yahoo! Mail web inbox, or from the Yahoo! Mail app. Open the message that you want to forward to someone.
2Click or tap the Forward button. It looks like a right arrow (⇨) and can be found on the top toolbar. You can also click the "Forward" link at the bottom of the message, or press ⇧ Shift+F while the message is open.
3Enter in the address(es) you want to forward the message to. You can forward the message to a single person, or as many people as you'd like. You can enter in the name of a group of contacts to forward the message to everyone in the group.
4Add an additional message (optional). You can add a message to your forwarded email. It will appear at the top of the original email when the recipient opens it.
5Send the message. Once you have added recipients and any additional message, you can forward the email by clicking or tapping the Send button. The message will be forwarded to all of the recipients you set.
Method 2
Auto-Forwarding Mail
1Log into your Yahoo! Mail account. You'll need to do this from your computer so that you can access your account settings.
2Hover over the Gear icon and select "Settings". The Gear icon can be found in the upper-right corner of the Yahoo! Mail screen.
3Select the "Accounts" option in the left frame. This will display your active Yahoo! Mail account.
4Click the "Edit" button next to your account name. This will open a new window where you can set your auto-forwarding settings.
5Select the "Forward" option. This will automatically forward all messages you receive to a new address. Your messages will still be stored on your Yahoo! Mail account as well unless you select "Forward Only" from the drop-down menu.
6Enter the address that you want to forward your messages to. All future messages that are sent to your Yahoo! Mail address will be automatically forwarded to the address you enter here.
7Click "Save" to confirm your forwarding settings. Future messages that you receive will automatically be forwarded based on the settings you entered.
Method 3
Forwarding Messages in Bulk
1Install Outlook or another email client. You cannot forward messages in bulk using the Yahoo! Mail web interface. You'll need to use a workaround if you want to forward a lot of messages at once, and using Outlook, or another client such as Thunderbird, allows you to do this the quickest.
2Add your Yahoo! account to Outlook. You'll need to add your Yahoo! account details so that Outlook can download all of your Yahoo! messages to your computer.[1]
- Open the "Account Settings" menu, which you can find in the File tab. If you're using Outlook 2003, click the "Tools" menu and select "Email Accounts".
- Click the "New" button and select "Manual setup".
- Select "POP or IMAP" and then enter your name and Yahoo! Mail address.
- Select "IMAP" from the drop-down menu, then enter imap.mail.yahoo.com into the "Incoming mail server" field and smtp.mail.yahoo.com into the "Outgoing mail server" field.
- Enter your Yahoo! Mail address again into the "Username" filed, and enter your Yahoo! Mail password into the "Password" field.
- Click the More Settings... button, select the Outgoing Server tab, and check the box.
- Select the Advanced tab and change "Incoming server" to 993 and set the encryption to "SSL". Change "Outgoing server" to 465 and set the encryption to "SSL".
3Wait for your messages to download. Outlook will begin downloading all of your Yahoo! Mail emails to your computer. If you have a lot of emails this could take a little while, but the process only needs to happen once.
4Find all of the emails you want to forward. Your emails will be organized in the same folder system that you were using on the Yahoo! Mail website. Your folders will be displayed in the left sidebar of the Outlook window.
5Select all of the emails that you want to forward at once. You can hold Ctrl and click each individual email, hold ⇧ Shift and click two messages to select a range of emails, or press Ctrl+A to select all of the messages in the current folder.
6Click the Forward button. You'll find this in the Home tab of Outlook. You can also press Ctrl+F, or right-click on the selected messages and select "Forward". A new message window will appear.
7Check that your messages are attached. When you forward multiple messages in Outlook, each message is added as an attachment to a brand new message. Your recipients will then be able to open each attachment to view the original email. This is how Outlook works around the limitations of not being able to forward multiple messages at the same time.
8Add recipients and send the email. Add recipients to your new email message, and include a subject and a body explaining that the emails are attached to the message. Click the Send button, and the message will be sent from your Yahoo! Mail address to the recipients you entered.[2]
- Your recipients will need to open the attached messages in an email client like Outlook or Thunderbird in order to read them, though many web email services will display all of the emails messages in a row when the message is opened.

Insurance Products & Services
Insurance is unlike any other product out there - you pay for it and hope you never have to use it. And that makes paying more than you need to that much more uncomfortable.
With a policy from Allstate, you can help keep your insurance costs low with the wide variety of discounts we offer. Keep in mind, not all discounts are available in every state. The best way to get all that you qualify for is to get an insurance quote specific to Avon Lake.
You can get a rough "ballpark" insurance quote from many companies online, but talking with an agent allows you to ask questions and get a quote for coverage that matters most to you. As an Allstate agent, I can prepare a quote that details the coverage, deductibles (your portion of a loss) and cost (premium) of your insurance policy.

McGuire will miss Friday's play-off semi-final against Wigan after being found guilty of a reckless high tackle during the defending champions' 27-20 win over Catalan Dragons in Perpignan last Friday.
"We considered an appeal," McDermott said. "There was a bit of merit in doing that. But we thought they gave us a fair hearing. I felt we put up a good case and I think it went as well as it could have done. If we did anything, we probably got it down from a two-game ban to one game."
McDermott, believes comments by Wane, in which he compared the incident to a tackle that earned Wigan hooker Michael McIlorum a three-match ban, were out of order.
"Unfortunately, with what's been said in the media building up to it, it would have been a tough call to not ban him. I'm just not sure that in any legal case you'd be allowed to say what you want in the media building up to it."
McDermott expressed fears the verdict could have serious repercussions for the game, with players fearful of going wholeheartedly into tackles in case they result in a fine and a ban.
"At the moment, players are concerned about going into collisions in case they get it slightly wrong," he said. "That's scary for our game. The beauty of our game is that usually, if you run harder and tackle harder than the opposition, you win the game.
"Now, if you run hard and tackle, you worry about getting a ban. Maggsy gets run at every single week by teams that try to exhaust the leading tryscorer in Super League.
"Because of that, Maggsy has to be aggressive and sometimes he gets it wrong. He hasn't the best tackle technique in the world and never has had but he is tenacious and competitive and sometimes that goes wrong.
"To judge him on one error, saying you got that wrong and it's a one-game ban, is very harsh. It's too clinical and I think if we carry on with this philosophy, players are going to start coming to coaches and say I can't afford to tackle hard."

|DONAHUE INVENTIONS LLC Patent applications
|Patent application number
|ONE-WAY SEE-THROUGH ILLUMINATION SYSTEM - A one-way see-through illumination system is constructed from a light guide panel, a front-illuminable image film, and a light injector. The light injector injects light into the light guide panel at a suitable angle for total internal reflection of the injected light at the surfaces of the light guide panel. The image film includes a half-toned front-illuminable image pattern that extracts light from the light guide panel. When active, light from the light guide panel front illuminates the image pattern for viewing by a front-side view, while a back-side viewer can see through the image pattern.
|ILLUMINABLE MARKING DEVICE - An illuminable marking device includes a light guide panel overlaid with an illuminable pressure-sensitive film. Light is injected into the light guide panel at an angle of incidence sufficient to establish total internal reflection of the light between the surfaces of the light guide panel. When pressure is applied at selected points on the illuminable pressure-sensitive film, contact points on the film then interface with the light guide panel. The total internal reflection of light at that contact point is frustrated, allowing light to be extracted from the light guide panel and transmitted into the illuminable pressure-sensitive film. The viewer then sees illumination at the selected points. The illuminable marking device can be toy where children can create illuminated markings and drawings.

We have been the industry leaders in advanced technology and innovation since 1991. Our products are the choice of many major-league teams, and are MADE IN THE USA. BATA machines have steadily become recognized as the best pitching machines on the market.Our machines are used by several pro organizations, including the San Diego Padres, Arizona Diamondbacks, Toronto Blue Jays, Chicago Whitesox, Anaheim Angels, Oakland A's, Los Angeles Dodgers, Seattle Mariners.Our product line includes: the state-of-the-art 2Pitch3, Twin-Pitch, traditional BATA-2, the original 2Pitch Sidewinder, and economical BATA-1, B1-Curveball, as well as Baseball and Softball Auto-Ball-Feeders.What makes BATA machines better than others?We are asked this question often, so we are thankful for the opportunity to explain the differences.There are some important factors to consider when evaluating a pitching machine:The type of construction. BATA machines are made of solid steel.There are no sand-castings or plastic on the frames or stands.The motors and electronics. Permanent magnet DC motors and solid-state electronic controls.The wheels. As explained below, BATA wheels are the most effective design.Ease of use. BATA machines are simple to set up, easy to adjust, easy to transport.Capacity. We have machines suited for players of all levels, priced accordingly.Accuracy- BATA machines are the only machines that use our unique Goodyear Rubber Soft Tread pitching wheels. Our Soft Tread wheels are solid, die-cast, flat-faced rubber treads, molded and vulcanized onto a machined aluminum core.

BATA Baseball Machines, Inc. was founded in 1991. Since then, BATA pitching machines have progressively become renowned as the preeminent baseball practice machines available. BATA baseball and softball hitting machines are common sights on MLB fields including the Padres, Diamondbacks, Blue Jays, White Sox, Angels, A's, Dodgers, & Mariners.
BATA baseball and softball pitching machines are made of solid steel. There are no sand castings or any plastic on the frames or stands. BATA uses only first-class American made, permanent magnet DC motors and solid-state controls. BATA pitching machines are designed with a solid, soft-tread wheel with Goodyear Rubber tread molded and vulcanized onto a precision-machined solid aluminum core. The aluminum core is precision-machined to within .005". BATA wheels are balanced to within ½ gram per foot. BATA machines are intended to use regulation real leather balls and BATA Dimpled Baseballs and Softballs.
The B1-Curveball and the 2Pitch3 throw the toughest breaking curves. Because there it is a single wheel-pitching machine, the wheels on these machines spin much faster than the wheels on the BATA-2. This combined with the fact that the compression pad is equal to a wheel spinning at no speed, the B1 and the 2Pitch3 put more spin on the ball than the BATA-2. The BATA-2 and the Twin Pitch are the preeminent machines for softball. The 2-wheel design of the BATA-2 allows you to regulate the quantity of spin on the ball, so you can pitch pitches that "rise", sink a little, sink a lot, tail, etc. The Twin Pitch permits you to pitch a fastball and a change-up in one set up.
BATA pitching machine automatic ball feeders hold up to 20 dimpled baseballs or 15 dimpled softballs, and can be converted from one to the other. Remote switches and other accessories for your BATA pitching machine are also available.

This is the only place I can see that there's an Arceus, so I really have to try...
So, uh, only looking for a TRU ARCEUS(for his Platinum Game) for a friend of
mine. He wants me to try and help him get all the legendaries, or at least just
the Creation Trio and Arceus. That last one is all that's on the list at the
moment, but unfortunately the only high level pokemon I really have up to offer
is a level 100 Crobat, and I
it's female(been awhile since I've
checked). If this is enough(probably not, but I really hope so), then I'll just
pal park it from Leaf Green.
I can allways pal park a level 61 Golbat
(caught at that level, trust me, finding one in that game at a level higher than
60 is
) as well, if it's of any interest.
Anyways, I do
however have another perk, I have both Sapphire and Firered, both haven't been
progressed very far so I can pal park any starter pokemon from the two without
worrying about losing any serious progress. I don't have any shiny pokemon
unfortunately, luck has eluded me in that particular aspect.
I also have
a ton of berries if any are needed or wanted, and too many items on hand, so
just name an item that you want if that'll change your mind in any way.
*Please note: none of the pokemon I'm trading belong to my friend, they're all
from my GBA game cartridges. So no moral inconvenience will be crossed.
*Also note: If none of these pokemon are of interest to you, please tell me what
would interest you, and I'll see if I can catch it/pal park it/find some legal
way to obtain it.
If this is impossible, then please refer me to someone else.

Anesthetizing the Public Conscience: Lethal Injection and Animal Euthanasia
Alper, Ty, Fordham Urban Law Journal
In the late 1970s, when Texas was considering whether to adopt Oklahoma's three-drug lethal injection formula for the execution of prisoners, Dr. Ralph Gray, the doctor in charge of medical care in Texas prisons, consulted with a Texas veterinarian named Dr. Gerry Etheredge. (1) Dr. Etheredge told Dr. Gray that veterinarians used an overdose of one drug, an anesthetic called sodium pentobarbital, to euthanize animals and that it was a "very safe, very effective, and very cheap" method of euthanasia. (2) Dr. Etheredge remembers that Dr. Gray had only one objection to using a similar method to execute human beings. "He said it was a great idea," Dr. Etheredge recalled, "except that people would think we are treating people the same way that we're treating animals. He was afraid of a hue and cry." (3) Texas rejected Dr. Etheredge's one-drug, anesthetic-only recommendation and, in 1982, became the first state to actually use lethal injection--via the three-drug formula--as a method of execution. (4)
This history is almost hard to believe in light of the fact that three decades later, death row inmates in Texas, as well as in nearly every other death penalty state, are challenging the three-drug formula on the grounds that the method is less reliable, and therefore less humane, than the method used to euthanize animals. (5) Rather than objecting to their clients being treated no better than animals, lawyers for the petitioners in Baze v. Rees, the lethal injection case pending before the Supreme Court, have essentially asked the Court to require the state of Kentucky to treat them at least as well as the state requires shelter workers to treat animals during the euthanasia process. (6) Veterinarians have testified on behalf of death row inmates in several states, (7) and groups of veterinary experts have filed amicus briefs on behalf of petitioners in the two most recent Supreme Court lethal injection cases, Baze (8) and Hill v. McDonough. (9)
The three-drug formula that states use to execute people is often misleadingly referred to as a "cocktail." (10) The three drugs are not mixed together like a cocktail; instead, they are administered serially, usually with a saline flush in between each drug, to clear the intravenous ("IV") line. (11) The drugs are, in the following order, thiopental, pancuronium bromide, and potassium chloride. (12) The first drug is intended to anesthetize the inmate so he does not experience the effects of the second and third drugs. (13) The second drug paralyzes him, and the third drug stops his heart, killing him. (14)
The use of pancuronium, the second drug, presents a problem that is fundamental to the controversy over the lethal injection procedure. Because pancuronium paralyzes the inmate during the execution process, the inmate may experience excruciating pain and suffering but be unable to cry out or even blink an eyelid to let anyone know if the anesthesia has failed. (15) Because pancuronium masks the ability of a lay observer to discern whether the anesthetic drug has been properly delivered, it is very difficult or impossible, in most cases, to know whether the lethal injection execution has been "botched." (16) Pancuronium virtually ensures that the execution looks "peaceful" (17) when it may have been anything but.
The pain and suffering that an inmate would experience if not properly anesthetized is extreme. Because pancuronium is a paralytic that restricts the ability of the respiratory muscles to contract, it causes asphyxiation. (18) The third drug, potassium chloride, causes excruciating pain that has been likened to the feeling of having one's veins set on fire. (19) Experts who have testified in lethal injection cases have unanimously agreed that it would be unconscionable to inject either drug into a person who was not anesthetized, (20) At issue in recent challenges to the administration of this procedure is whether, and to what extent, the public can be sure that prison officials are properly administering the first drug, the anesthetic, and monitoring its continued effect, such that the inmate does not experience the suffocation the second drug causes or the excruciating pain that the third drug inflicts. …
