The invention relates to optic systems in the visible and near-visible electromagnetic spectrum, which comprise a polarizer. More specifically, the invention relates to complex, that are compound polarizers made of several polarizing layers. The invention uncovers the most simple arrangement of cross-polarization, in which each sub-beam of a split or a combine process goes through both a transmission and a reflection at a polarizing layer. Cross-polarization is achieved by the arrangement of 3 polarizing layers without additional optical elements.
A short survey on simple polarizers (in contrast to complex, compound polarizing systems) is provided in patent application DE102004006148, the content of which is part of this application. In this publication the significance of our invention for 2-channel display systems is explained. Therefore, we present here a short overview on the state of the art of polarizing systems used in such display systems.
In 1990, Lee (DE4040081) described a layout for transmissive liquid crystal displays (LCD), in which a polarizing beam splitter (PBS) was used to split an incident unmodulated light beam and a second PBS was employed to superimpose the two polarized beams after their modulation by the imagers.
For reflective LCDs Baur et al, (U.S. Pat. No. 5,028,121) already in 1988 uncovered an architecture that includes only one PBS. This single PBS is used for both separation of the polarized beams (splitter function) and the superposition (as well as polarization recombination) of the two modulated beams. A similar polarizer arrangement is found in Gibbon et al. (2001, US20030020809) and is also described in Svardal et al. in 2001 (WO03058342) for the use with LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) Displays (
For use with Digital Mirror Devices (DMDs) Fielding (US20010040670) shows a light architecture with only a single PBS for beam splitting and superposition. Solutions for a 2-channel DMD system, which take into account that there is currently only one topological form of the (stereo isomeric) DMD were uncovered by Bausenwein and Mayer in 2003 (DE10361915). This architecture uses two PBSs, one for beam splitting and a second for superposition.
All engines, which use a single PBS for the superposition (
As a consequence, for 2-channel display systems with LCoS displays, various architectures with complex, multiple polarizers (see
In contrast to the architectures described above in our application (PCT/DE2005/000194) we have developed the cross-polarizer. Nothing but the proper arrangement of polarizing layers causes that both sub-beams in the polarizer go both through both a transmissive, and a reflective polarization process. We call transmission and reflection in the PBS "complementary" processes, and also refer to "S"- and "P-polarization states as being complementary, since they complement each other to natural light. Natural unpolarized light split by our invention leads to two polarized sub-beams which have the same polarization contrast, the same intensity, and which both are reflected once. We call this a functionally "symmetrical" beam split (or "symmetrical" beam recombination). We have also used the term reciprocal to denote that in one beam the transmission precedes the reflection while in the second beam the reflection precedes the transmission. We also introduce complex cross-polarizers, which consist of several simple cross-polarizers. They render possible very efficient architectures of systems employing two complementarily polarized light beams (e.g. 2-channel display systems with spatial light modulators).
1. Mode of operation of the polarizers used and introduction of designators.
Polarizing layers of the beam splitter type split an unpolarized light beam in two linearly polarized light beams by a polarizing transmission and a polarizing reflection (
We have introduced the vector described above and termed it "polarizing layer vector" of a polarizing beam splitter. It is defined such that it can be used both for the thin-film polarizer (
In thin-film polarizers, which operate according to Brewster's law, the plane of incidence (POI) directly determines the plane of polarization (POP) of the transmitted and the reflected light: the transmitted light ("P"-polarized) has a POP parallel to POI (E2 in
Cartesian polarizers make it possible to uncouple POP from POI (
Single polarizing beam splitters of both types, thin-film and cartesian, have in common the different polarization contrast for the two sub-beams. While the transmitted beam is rather clean and is contaminated with less than 1/1000, the reflected beam contains about 5% of the opposite polarization.
2. The cross-polarizer: reciprocal polarization at polarization layers, which act complementary.
A central aspect of our invention is the multiple coupling of a polarizing transmission at one polarizer with a polarizing reflection at a second polarizer, which we therefore call to act "complementary" to the former.
Three polarizing layers P1, P2 and P3 with their polarizing layer vectors V1, V2 and V3 along two optical axes A1 and A2 are structurally coupled such (
This has the functional consequence that a polarizing transmission process along A1 at P1 can be coupled with a polarizing reflection process at P2 (
If one chooses, like in our invention, the direction of the optical axes such that these are identical to the corresponding transmission and reflection axes of a possible polarization process at P1, the resulting setup can be used for our principle of reciprocal polarization (
In our invention of reciprocal polarization at complementary polarizing layers 4 polarization processes are coupled: two complementary polarizations in the first optic path (a transmission at P1 is coupled with a reflection at P2) are coupled with two complementary polarizations in the second optic path (the reflection at P1 is coupled to with a transmission at P3). We call this coupling of the two couplings reciprocal polarization, because transmission and reflection happen in opposite succession in both beams. We would like to add here already that the described three-armed cross-polarizer (
3. The three-armed cross-polarizer (first and second embodiments of the invention)
A second embodiment, as an important special case of the first embodiment, is shown in
4. Polarization contrast in the cross-polarizer
The polarization contrast resulting in a cross-polarizer is shown in
5. The four-armed cross-polarizer third and fourth embodiments of the invention)
To set up a four-armed cross-polarizer the three-armed cross-polarizers shown in
An important detail of the closed form (
6. Cross-polarizing principle in 2-channel display systems including polarization-rotating reflective spatial light modulators (fifth and sixth embodiment)
The addition of a fourth polarizer to a three-armed cross-polarizer has far-reaching consequences for its use.
In the open form (
In the closed form (
Especially in this sixth embodiment with polarization-rotating reflective spatial light modulators the symmetrically acting principle of the cross-polarizer both for the beam split and for the superposition is very obvious. Both sub-beams, derived by the polarizing beam split, leave the cross-polarizer symmetrically into opposite directions, along the east-west axis. The same principle applies for the superposition, in which ON- and OFF-beams for both channels leave the cross-polarizer symmetrically in opposite directions along the north-south axis (
7. Cross-polarizing systems and types of polarizers used
All embodiments above are realized by using wire grid polarizers. In most examples shown, the polarizing layers are perpendicular to a common ground plane (the normal vectors of the layer planes being coplanar). The light guidance in all systems above is realized only by polarization beam splitters within the cross-polarizer. In the following we uncover that none of these restrictions is necessary for the cross-polarization principle. Other arrangements and other types of polarizers are compatible with cross-polarizing systems.
If additional reflective means M (e.g. mirrors) are inserted between two polarizing layers (
In our application DE102004006148 we have indicated that WGPs with certain polarizing layer vectors can be replaced by polarization beam splitters of the MacNeille type (e.g. P1 in
8. The four-armed cross-polarizer made of 4 thin-film type polarizers with polarization rotating reflective spatial light modulators (seventh embodiment of the invention)
The cross-polarizer in this embodiment (
9. The cross-polarizer in 2-channel display systems with image modulators of the type Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS)
MEMS modulate the incident light not by a change (rotation) of polarization, but by a change of the direction of the reflected light. MEMS according to the state of the art consist of an array of electronically deflectable mirrors, which reflect the ON-beams in the direction of the normal to the modulator surface (Digital Mirror Devices, DMD by Texas Instruments).
DMD modulators, according to the state of the art, show stereo-isomeric characteristics (of which only one form is recently produced). Since a single polarizer folds only one sub-beam at superposition, it is preferable to use either an isomeric pair of modulators or to apply an additional folding to one channel prior to superposition to obtain the virtually stereoisomeric form (Bausenwein and Mayer, DE10361915). The cross-polarizer, in contrast, folds both channels—and thus allows one to use only a single DMD type (e.g. the currently available stereo-isomer) without additional means of reflection (in
10. The two-armed form of the cross-polarizer (ninth embodiment of the invention)
The three-armed cross-polarizer can, under certain conditions, be meaningfully reduced to a two-armed cross-polarizer (
The two-armed cross-polarizer can be used for arbitrary complementary polarization directions. However, there is a significant difference to all three-armed and four-armed cross-polarizers: the sub-beams cannot be tapped outside the involved PBSs: the sub-beams in S1 and S2 only exist between the two complementary polarization processes. This embodiment can be used for example in 2-channel display systems with MEMS type image modulators, which are then located on S1 and S2 between P1 and P2 (not shown). Since MEMSs do not modulate the light via a change of polarization, the polarization impurities still contained after one simple polarization do not interfere with modulation and will be largely removed at superposition. This leads in the two-armed cross-polarizer with MEMSs to the same high channel separation of >5000:1 as in three-armed cross-polarizers. Crosstalk between the channels is then less than 0.0002. Like in the other embodiments, the two modulated sub-beams, superposed in the common ON-beam, can again be split by an external analyzer, e.g. passive polarization glasses.
11. Cross-polarizers with glass prisms
The open two-, three- and four-armed cross-polarizers are easily built from single, discrete polarizers. More intricate is the production of the closed form, since the quality and dimensioning of the central crossing line gets important. In DE102004006148 we have introduced prisms, from which the closed form of the cross-polarizer can be built with cartesian polarizers. We have also shown that cartesian polarizers with a certain, specified V can be replaced by MacNeille type PBSs.
12. Cross-polarizers concluded with a body
FIG. 1(A,B) shows a simple and a complex polarizer in 2-channel display systems with polarization rotating reflective spatial light modulators (RLM, e.g. LCoS displays) according to the state of the art.
While in MacNeille-type PBS V1 is always normal to the POI (
FIGS. 4A,B show functional characteristics of the cross-polarizer: the coupling of a polarizing transmission with a polarizing reflection at two polarizing beam splitting layers, which act complementary on a beam with a given plane of polarization. We call P1 complementary to P2 if they are arranged along an optical axis A1 such that a linearly polarized light beam along axis A1, which transmits P1, is reflected at P2 and vice versa. If V1 and A1 span a plane E1, and if V2 and A1 span the plane E2, and if E1 is perpendicular to E2 as has been shown in
FIGS. 8A,B show a four-armed cross-polarizer in a fifth and sixth embodiment of our invention with two image modulators. Open form (
FIGS. 12A,B show a two-armed form of the cross-polarizer (ninth embodiment of our invention). The three-armed cross-polarizer of

About National Microfinance BankJordan is a small country located in the heart of the Middle East's Levant region. Regional instability has caused Jordan to be excluded from global investments for decades. Additionally, a lack of natural resources—including water and energy—places tremendous strain on the Jordanian economy, over 80% of which consists of small businesses, largely in the service industry. Despite their importance in the economy, many of these businesses are excluded from the banking sector because of their size. Microfinance institutions like National Microfinance Bank offer them an opportunity to enhance and expand their businesses. NMB also offers its services to other underprivileged peoples in Jordan, providing them with loans to pursue educational goals and improve their homes and livelihoods.
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.

Without a doubt, Milan Josipovic is an artist who greatly enriches our perception with his unique photographic view. Though the wide variety of his images reflects an effortless versatility, they are nevertheless identifiable as Milan Josipovic photographs by their sheer power and technical virtuosity – whether it's a shot of a Table Mountain in South Africa, a cityscape of New York or the iconic black and white portrait of Sir Christopher Lee. This single-minded commitment to perfection has made Milan one of the world's most distinguished photographers.
Milan's visual language follows his own distinctive rules and concepts of quality. With their brilliance, urgency, even grandeur, his photographs stand out so clearly against the world of today's images. His way of lighting subjects, especially portraits, creates a nearly meditative atmosphere in the photographs.
Despite the demands of his commissioned assignments, Milan devotes much of his time to extensive personal projects, and stays true to himself. The photographs create an aura that takes the viewer into the image but simultaneously demands a reverent distance.

I fell off toying around with ASP.NET vNext for a while, mostly because the combination of Mono, DNX, Visual Studio Code, etc. has been too unstable to ever make any progress with. I'm trying again now with the latest release (DNX beta6, VSCode 0.5), and… it might be workable, but I ran into the above-linked problem.
The workaround suggested, setting
export MONO_MANAGED_WATCHER=false in my terminal session, has worked for me so far (auto-refresh on file change doesn't appear to work in Kestrel on OS X anyway, unless I'm missing something), but I'll be happy when I can stop fighting bugs and actually write some code. Using my .NET experience on non-Windows platforms is just too tempting a fruit to abandon.
Update: I was looking into a persistent
dnu build error, and the solutions proposed in June motivated me to check
brew edit mono. I noticed something strange: the brew file was already referencing a mono archive with the version number
126.96.36.199, even though I was still running
4.0.1. I did a
brew upgrade mono, it pulled down the new version, and the two bugs mentioned here no longer occur!
Sometimes you can wait this stuff out.

Q&A: On first impression, OSU receiver Tracy Moore thought teammate Josh Cooper was a girl...or a kicker
STILLWATER — Oklahoma State's Justin Blackmon may get the majority of the headlines for the Cowboys' receiving corps, but he'll have plenty of help in 2011.
A lot of that help will come from inside receivers Tracy Moore and Josh Cooper.
Moore and Cooper teamed up for nearly 1,000 yards receiving and six touchdowns in 2010 but should contribute even more in 2011 as defenses continue to key on Blackmon.
Do you remember the first time you met each other and what your first impressions were?
Moore: I thought he was a girl. The long curly hair got me. I was trying to figure out what this girl was doing playing football. Or either he was the kicker. One of the two.
Cooper: Man, I thought (Tulsa) Union, are you serious? Union and Mustang are coming together?
What is the most annoying thing about Tracy?
Cooper: He don't ever shut up. That's one annoying thing. He just keeps talking and talking and blabbering his mouth.
What is the most annoying thing about Josh?
Moore: He really doesn't too much that's annoying. He really doesn't talk. You got to beat him to talk. That's annoying to me. If I ask him a question, he really doesn't answer me. He just looks at me like I am going to answer my own question.
Cooper: What are you talking about?
Moore: That's the truth.
How are you the most alike?
Moore: I guess we are both considered not fast receivers. Because (Josh is) not the fastest receiver on the team and I'm not the fastest either. But I'm not the slowest.
Cooper: We are nothing alike, that's how alike we are.
How are you the least alike?
Cooper: This guy has pigeon-toed feet and I don't.
Moore: He has more of the Barbie doll look. I got the manly build.
What is the oddest thing about Josh?
Moore: I went to Wal-Mart the other day and I saw him getting a manicure and a pedicure.
Cooper: That is so false. You want to look at my toenails? I would not let anybody touch my feet. I definitely wouldn't be getting a pedicure or whatever it's called.
You get the last shot, Josh. What is the oddest thing about Tracy?
Cooper: I don't know. I guess his overall appearance. The way he walks with his toes out with his butt arched back. I can't even explain it.
On a serious note, what is the one trait that you would most like to take from each other?
Cooper: Probably his strength. This guy is a hoss. He takes on those big ole' linebackers inside.
Moore: I would take all of his athletic ability. When I first got here as a freshman, he was the only thing standing in my way from starting. I said, this guy is not going to start over me but then I saw him play. I said, he's way too athletic. He's got me.
What is the one thing you admire most about each other?
Moore: We are two completely different people but when it comes down to it I know he's got my back. I can call on Josh for anything.
Cooper: He is an all-around good dude. We have our fun joking around with each other and giving each other crap, but overall he is a good dude.
David and Goliath
Cooper's physical appearance hardly strikes fear in enemy defenses. Average height. Average build, although the guns have grown in his years under the watch of strength-guru Rob Glass. And yet, he has a knack for the David moments. Moore, on the other hand, is a hulking physical specimen capable of wiping out waves of defenders at a time.
Receivers coach Kasey Dunn on the Cowboys wide receivers
"The position is one that's a strength for our team. It's got to be one of the best corps, I hope, in the country at the end of the year. I think we've got a lot of ability. And I think we have a chance to put ourselves there at the end of the season and that's what we're striving to do. We've got some good leadership and all in all, I think we've got a chance to be very good at the position."
Adarius Bowman and D'Juan Woods, 2006
Herman Eben in the '60s. Hart Lee Dykes in the '80s. Rashaun Woods in the '00s. Dez Bryant three years ago. Justin Blackmon last autumn. OSU has not been lacking in star receivers.
But the best duo might have been none of those playmakers and their variety of sidekicks.
In 2006, Bowman caught 60 passes for 1,181 yards and 12 touchdowns, while D'Juan Woods caught 41 passes for 647 yards and five TDs as the Cowboys became an offensive force.
In Justin Blackmon, the Cowboys boast the nation's best receiver (source: Biletnikoff Award). He wrecked enemy game plans devised to stop him, producing in each and every game. This season, his supporting cast should be stronger, with Josh Cooper underrated, Hubert Anyiam healthy and up-and-coming help emerging.

A Vancouver truck driver escaped criminal charges after he allegedly ran a red light and hit two other vehicles in Portland, fatally injuring one driver more than two months ago.
A Multnomah County grand jury declined last week to issue criminal charges against Ibrahim Halilovic, 35, according to a bulletin from the Portland Police Bureau.
The bulletin said Halilovic, on the morning of Nov. 25, had been driving a 2008 Volvo tractor-trailer pulling a tank trailer east on Columbia Boulevard when he went through a red light faster than the speed limit.
The big rig collided with a 2010 Toyota 4Runner driven by Roderick Hawthorne, 64, that had been traveling north on Northeast 47th Avenue.
The truck then hit a 1996 Chevrolet Blazer driven by Willow Michelle Thorpe, 26, that had been stopped on Columbia facing west.
Thorpe, who lived in Happy Valley, Ore., was killed in the crash, the police bulletin said.
Halilovic stopped and cooperated with investigators, as did Hawthorne, a Portland resident. Several witnesses also spoke with officers.
Alcohol was not a factor in the crash, said police Sgt. Pete Simpson.
Portland's Major Crash Team investigated.
After the grand jury's decision, police ticketed Halilovic for alleged traffic violations: careless driving, driving with a suspended license and failure to obey a traffic control device.

ESPN analyst likes Matt Holliday's chances in Home Run Derby
As a teammate of Matt Holliday on the Oakland A's, ESPN baseball analyst Nomar Garciaparra used to marvel at Holliday's mammoth home runs in batting practice.
Garciaparra said Holliday would launch baseballs high up into the football sky boxes in center field at the ballpark in Oakland.
"If they had the window open, somebody would have a souvenir," Garciaparra said. "It is unbelievable. We would all marvel. Even on our team, there were times in batting practice where guys would stop taking ground balls and just watch to see how far he would hit it."
Holliday, the St. Louis Cardinals All-Star outfielder from Stillwater, will make his third appearance in the Home Run Derby on Monday night. In 2007, he tied for third place with 13 home runs. Last year, he managed only five home runs in finishing fifth, although his 497-foot homer was the longest of the competition.
Garciaparra expects Holliday's experience will prove beneficial on Monday night in Phoenix.
"Knowing what it's about, I think this time he might fare a lot better," he said.
However, ESPN analyst John Kruk said Holliday's swing might work against him in the competition.
"I think it could be a detriment to him because he's such a line drive hitter with unbelievable power," Kruk said. "Can he elevate the ball enough to win this? He can. I don't know if he's able to do it in this format, though. So I think he's at a disadvantage because of the fact that he's such a line drive hitter."
Holliday, who had 14 home runs entering Saturday's action despite missing 13 games with a left quadriceps injury, is looking forward to another opportunity.
"I like to try to hit the ball far," he said last week after being picked to compete. "I get extra adrenaline. It's a fun thing that as a kid you always want to do. I always thought if I get the opportunity, I'm going to do it every time."
Oklahoma also will be represented with Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Matt Kemp, a Midwest City High School graduate, who will be making his first appearance.
"People are going to get to see Matt Kemp for the first time in the big public forum and see how special a player he is," Kruk said.
Garciaparra said Kemp, who had 22 home runs through Friday's games, will be hindered by his Home Run Derby inexperience.
"The difficult thing is to get away from all the emotion that's surrounding it," he said. "Get away from the anxiety, because that is all going to be a part of it.
"You realize there are thousands and thousands of people in the stands. All they're doing is focused on you and watching. All eyes are on you in this one swing and every one you do. ... But I think he has the body and strength to do it."
Kruk said competitors also must learn to pace themselves. He noted Josh Hamilton had a record-setting first round with 28 homers in 2009, but finished second after tiring.
"People remember Josh Hamilton and how many home runs he hit," he said. "But they forget that the later rounds he didn't do too well because of the fatigue factor."

Dan Boyd, president of the Building Industry Association of Southern California's Riverside chapter, and an executive with DR Horton, said 2012 was a good year not only because new construction began to ramp up again.

"We have reduced over $50 million in impact fees,'' he said, in opening remarks Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the BIA's 2013 Economic Forecast that's co-sponsored with Orco Block Co.
That's significant because the average fee load on a housing unit in Riverside County can range between $40,000 to $80,000, according to the BIA.
A lot of local governments, recognizing how high fees put a hammerlock of sorts on building starts, have worked hand-in-glove to lower development fees, and that has helped immeasurably in the industry shake-out, according to BIA's Riverside chapter leader Bill Blankenship.
With more positive signs on the horizon for the economy in 2013 than the industry has had in four years, Boyd said the BIA membership roster is growing again. It feels as if the industry has been reborn. "We're all bouncing back together,'' Boyd said, before Chapman University economist Esmael Adibi offered a preview of what's ahead.
If you've seen new building starts, or want to talk about new developments that look to be taking shape in 2013 or you're excited about, I'd welcome your tips and comments on The Press-Enterprise real estate blog: http://blog.pe.com/real-estate

Collins gets plenty of support after coming out
Jason Collins nearly got Rick Welts into $200 worth of trouble.
Welts is the president of the Golden State Warriors, and is gay. And a short while before the news broke Monday that Collins would become the first active player from one of the four U.S. major pro sports leagues to come out, someone called Welts to give him a heads-up about the pending announcement.
Small problem: Welts was driving, and not using a hands-free device that California law dictates. He got pulled over but, Welts said, was let out of the costly ticket after telling his story to the California Highway Patrol officer.
"Thanks, Jason," Welts said afterward.
Collins was thanked and applauded by virtually all sides of the sports world Monday when the first-person account of his life was published by Sports Illustrated.
Former President Bill Clinton spoke of Collins' courage, tennis great Martina Navratilova called him a pioneer, Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers compared him to Jackie Robinson.
Perhaps no one was more succinct than Los Angeles Lakers guard Steve Nash, who simply tweeted, "The time has come."
Support freely flowed Collins' way, mainly through social media, with players from all four major sports reaching out to offer congratulations, support or both. Even the entertainment world reacted, with actor Neil Patrick Harris, who came out in 2006, thanking Collins.
"Thanks for stepping up. For standing tall. And at 7 feet, that's saying a lot," Harris wrote.
Collins will be a free agent this summer. However, after averaging a mere 1.1 points in 38 games for the Celtics and Washington Wizards this season - and after scoring 10 points just one time since Jan. 2, 2008 - it remains to be seen what sort of interest the 34-year-old center will generate from clubs.
"He exemplifies everything we look for in players," said Billy King, the general manager of the Nets franchise that Collins spent his first 6 1/2 seasons with when the team was in New Jersey.
In Miami, guard Dwyane Wade tweeted that he respects Collins for "living in his truth" and forward Shane Battier said that he only judges teammates by their commitment to winning.
"Whether he is straight, gay, black, white, from Earth, or from Mars is immaterial. Just help us win," Battier said.
Collins finished this season with the Wizards, spending months traveling, practicing, playing, dressing and hanging out with the same group of men, day after day after day.
They had no idea he was gay.
"No, I didn't know about it! I don't think anyone did!" Wizards guard Bradley Beal wrote in a text message. "I am proud of his decision to come out and express the way he feels and I'm supportive of that!! I never judge anyone, that's his decision and his life to live! I always saw him as a great teammate, mentor, leader, huge asset to our team and just a vet to me! So all in all I respect what he has done."
Wizards owner Ted Leonsis talked with Collins on Monday, saying that he told him, "we are proud of you and I support you in every way possible."
Predictably, Collins' message was not unanimously well received. Thousands of tweets about Collins included a gay slur. In New York, well-known sports radio host Mike Francesa called the story "a dramatic attempt to sell a magazine."
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Mike Wallace had to backtrack from, delete and eventually apologize for two tweets he posted about the Collins story, in which he said he did not understand homosexuality. And on his radio show on WQAM in Miami, former Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder - who said Collins was strong for coming out - questioned what effect it would have coming from a journeyman who's likely nearing the end of his career.

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.
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.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

4 Things I Wish More People Knew About Miscarriage
Sunday, August 2nd, 2015
When I first pursued growing my family, never was there any place in my mind that thought things may not go according to plan. We were going to go off birth control, I was going to get pregnant, have an easy pregnancy and delivery, and add the the most healthy, gorgeous baby to our family. I read all the books on preconception and pregnancy before we decided it was the right time and I was ready. Good to go, right?
Miscarriage seems to be one of those "go wrongs" that only enter our thoughts when it's happened to us already.
Except that's not how things ended up going for us. We went off birth control, I was getting pregnant, but for some reason my pregnancies would always end at about 7 or 8 weeks gestation, leaving me with another lost baby and another miscarriage in its place. It's been a long road for us building our family and now, instead of that perfect plan we had years ago, we are acutely aware of all the ways a perfect plan can go wrong.
{ MORE: Pregnancy Anxiety after Loss}
Miscarriage seems to be one of those "go wrongs" that only enter our thoughts when it's happened to us already. It's an uncomfortable topic to talk about and even more so when we're trying to conceive and holding on to that perfect vision of how it will all go. It doesn't happen that way for many women and families — miscarriage is estimated to affect "about 10 to 15 out of 100 pregnancies (10 to 15 percent)", according to the March of Dimes. If you're fortunate not to be in that category, you may think it's not an issue you need to know anything about, but there are some things I wish more people, especially those not affected, knew about miscarriage – here are four of those things:

NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — For openers, Norfolk State couldn't have asked for much more. With quarterback Chris Walley's near-perfect passing, a dominating defense and a solid kicking game, the Spartans trounced Virginia State 37-3 in Saturday's season opener for both teams.
Walley was 25-for-29 passing for 255 yards and two touchdowns. He completed passes to eight different receivers. His primary target, Reggie Garrett, had seven receptions for 74 yards. Victor Hairston and Xavier Boyce each caught a touchdown pass.
Norfolk State's running game wasn't bad either. The Spartans rushed for 178 yards, 65 of them by Takeem Hedgeman. Placekicker Ryan Estep also chipped in with three field goals.
Virginia State did little against the Spartans' defense, which held the Trojans to just 30 yards rushing. Late in the second half, Ricardo Volcin returned an interception 46 yards to give the Spartans a commanding 20-0 lead with 1:05 left in the first half.

Fried Kool-Aid
Diet Disaster
Some of the most horrifying foods are born at state fairs across the United States. "Chicken" Charlie Boghosian recently created fried Kool-Aid, which consists of a dough made from cherry drink powder, flour and water. It's then deep fried for about ten minutes. Although gross, we can't say we're terribly surprised by the new invention, because we're pretty much beyond shock after finding out about [fried beer][1] and deep-fried butter. In any case, we don't think fried Kool-Aid has a place in anyone's healthy diet. [1]: http://www.dietsinreview.com/diet_column/09/diet-disaster-fried-beer/ "Fried Beer"Flag this Video

Tom Hiddleston as Henry V (The Hollow Crown, BBC)
It was sad q_q
It was sad q_q
Bellissimo, molto realistico !! (lifelike!! loooooove it)
Splendid! My compliments to artist!
Tom's Prince Hal (and subsequent Henry V) is possibly my favorite adaptation of the character. He has this fragile strength about him, which you've captured perfectly!! This piece is so simply beautiful; fantastic job!
Прекрасный *_*
oh god I'm dying because of awesomeness o:
я люблю ваш штрих *W*
Wow, absolutely amazing! I just love it, from the cropping, through the shading to the details... it's just fantastic. I love your shading style, the tiny lines arranged with precision and giving an old feeling, and the sharp contours and shapes of the shadows - love it all There is a fantastic sense of brightness in the drawing, a light and a feeling, as if Hal's looking into it - beautiful I also love the details and the fantastic realism, you put so much work and attention into it all. And I like how the edges melt away instead of being cut off by the frames - very smooth and elegant. Awesome job on the whole piece
Thank you so very much Q__Q
I really appreciate it

Jordan Berni of Skyview fame took home MVP honors at the Summer Classic all-state, all-star football game in Moses Lake on Friday night.
The quarterback completed 16 of 27 passes for 260 yards and a touchdown and also rushed for a touchdown, leading the "East" squad to a 38-21 victory in a game featuring recent graduates from the Class 4A and 3A football programs from around the state.
Skyview's Jabari Marshall started at linebacker and Battle Ground's Kevin Haynes started at defensive end for the East. Mountain View's Bennett Masau played on the offensive line.
This might not be the last all-star football game for those locals. They are on the initial rosters for July's Freedom Bowl Classic, which features recent graduates from Southwest Washington. That game is set for July 13 at Kiggins Bowl.
She's still No. 1
Not that there was any doubt around here, but now Gatorade has named Camas sophomore Alexa Efraimson the female track and field athlete of the year for the state of Washington.
Efraimson won the 800- and 1,600-meter runs in state meet record times, and had the second-fastest 1,600 time in the nation this year among high school competitors.
"She dictates a race just by stepping to the start line," said Mark Ward, head coach of Central Kitsap, in a press release from Gatorade. "She is totally under control of every race I have seen her run and has the best range of any athlete at our level in the state."
Gatorade has named a state best in track and field for 28 years. Efraimson is the second athlete from Clark County to take the honor. Brenda Bessner of Washington School for the Deaf was selected in 1988.
Efraimson is the second athlete from Clark County to be named state player of the year by Gatorade this spring. Skyview's Carter Johnson was selected as the state's top soccer player.
Team tennis player
Fresh off winning her second straight Class 4A state singles title, Skyview sophomore Sammi Hampton has been named to two United States Tennis Association Pacific Northwest junior tennis teams.
Hampton is one of four girls on the 16s Intersectional team scheduled to travel to Shreveport, La., in early July, and is also one of six girls on the 18s National team going to Claremont, Calif., in late July.
The Intersectional Team Championships are played on clay between teams of the 17 sections of the USTA. Both events are the highest level of junior team competition held in the U.S.

NIK Plugins - Where is the info for each change made
I have now figured out my workflow with Lightroom and NIK plugins. I want to record the editing (exposure, contrast, highlights, etc.) I have made with a photo that starts out with Lightroom 4 and then subsequent editing in several NIK plugins. I can get the original CR2 file (canon raw) but when I bring up the final tif file, after having saved it and closed it, then bringing it back up through Lightroom and any of the NIK plugins, the sliders are all at default (0) positions.
I realize this is a little difficult to explain but I am hoping someone knows how to bring up the tif file showing any of the changed slider positions (or equivalent) in the NIK plugins.

Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma says "Sarkar" and "Sarkar Raj" target="_blank">Sarkar Raj" would not have been possible without Bal Thackeray and adds some of the dialogues in the film were inspired by the Shiv Sena supremo.
Thackeray died Saturday.
"If Godfather was not there, I wouldn't have made 'Sarkar'...if Bala Saheb wasn't there, I couldn't have made 'Sarkar' (sic)," Varma tweeted.
"Many of the dialogue from both 'Sarkar' and 'Sarkar Raj" target="_blank">Sarkar Raj' are actually Bala Saheb's lines which I copied from what he said. He actually told me, 'Mujhe jo sahi lagta hai main wahi karta hoon!', which I copied and made Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) say it in 'Sarkar'," he further posted.
Released in 2005, "Sarkar", a crime thriller, was set in the backdrop of politics and crime.
The film starred Amitabh Bachchan in the title role and it also featured Abhishek Bachchan, Kay Kay Menon, Katrina Kaif, Anupam Kher, Supriya Pathak and Tanisha Mukherjee.
Its sequel, "Sarkar Raj" target="_blank">Sarkar Raj", came out in 2008.

Prospect expert, ask me questions
I've read a ridiculous amount of scouting reports. Ask me about your favorite team's prospects or the guys from your keeper league I'll let you know what type of seasons they should put up down the line.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
im in a 20 team league, and i've been holding on to ian kennedy, needless to say he has sucked, is he worth holding on to? will he pick it up? and if not, is there any under the radar guys worth picking up in your opinion. Thanks bro

I am Rediculously huge on these three pitching prospects and need your avice about them for my longer term keeper leagues.
THanks so much.
1. Brian Bannister Only 2 of my leagues i dont have him in.
2. Adam Loewen
3.Luke Hochevar
I love these 3 pitchers and need to hear your honest opinion on them.
- 1 Reply to GO Pirates
I am not big on Brian Bannister, with his skill set he really only projects out to be a number 3, and he is low strike out option at that. Not to mention that being on the Royals further limits his fantasy value (they don't have the organizational depth to make the quick turns like the Rockies, DBacks or Rays).
Adam Loewen I would have been big on two years ago, but repeated injuries, and a bad team playing in a bad division limit his value. He did have top of the rotation stuff before the injuries, but I haven't heard anything about how he looks or how he's throwing since the most recent injuries so I can't really judge though.
Hochevar is a great prospect long term. You could look at his minor league numbers and be disappointed, but that was because he was working on improving certain pitches and parts of his delivery, which scouts say he has drastically. Right now he has a 5 pitch arsenal and should develop into an ace as his command improves.
still around, ask me something, although if its drastically off topic I'll probably just make fun of you.

Whats Jay Bruce gonna be like... pick him up?
- 1 Reply to Devin K
I can't tell you whether to pick up anyone without knowing specifics about your league and team. Honestly, I didn't pick him up in any of my single season league because I have strong rosters and there is no one worth dropping for a risk/reward play like him.
crazymetfan crazymetfan May 28, 2008 12:15 AM Flag
I am in a keeper league and have been for the past 6 years.... The whole roster roles over and for the first time I find myself really thinking about a trade. The trade is Ryan Howard for Johnny Cueto, and Jay Bruce the prospect stud... Howard with his troubles this year Ive been trying to deal but the offers just arent up 2 par but I just don't know if I should just keep him... Anyone got any input????
Some of my players are:
Pedro,Santana,Maine,Hamels, and a core of good relievers not closers.
- 1 Reply to crazymetfan
you would be retarded to do that deal. Howard isn't struggling, he just always starts slow, look at his splits from last year, he already has more HR and RBI than he did through the end of May.
Alright, I have a few questions.
-First, I'll get to the real baseball question. How's the Mariner's farm system looking? I know they got rid of a boatload of talent acquiring Bedard, but what do we have coming up? I heard Triunfel is projected to be Miggy or A-Rod ish and. What's Aumont projecting to be like and when do you see him up? Two years?
Ok, for my fantasy question....I have Soto (is he considered a prospect?) in my keeper league (We only keep six guys) and he's one of my best run producers so far. I have a hard time wanting to keep a catcher for next year, but he's putting up non-catcher numbers. What I'm getting at is, should I trade him for a few young great hitting guys (suggestions?) and see what I can do for catcher? Or keep him all together?
Here's my team for weak spots.
Soto, D. Lee, Kinsler, M. Young, Zimmerman, Holliday, Kemp, Upton, Ortiz, Hart, Gomez, Pierre, Ian Stewart (revolving spot.)
Thanks a bunch in advance and sorry if the last question was not one you consider prospect questions.
- 1 Reply to Melanie Y
I think thats being a little generous with Triunfel and Aumont. With Triunfel, the Mariners are only expecting him to develop average power, and his defense isn't good enough to stick at SS. If he moves to 3B he isn't really anything special, but 25 HR pop out of your 2B is still above average. They say he has the hand eye coordination to compete for batting titles, but I wouldn't make any bets on an 18 year old thats only broke .309.
Aumont has legitimate top of the rotation stuff, but he is behind the normal learning curve of HS pitchers as he's from Canada.it took Hughes and Bailey 2 full seasons in the minors to make their debuts, and I'd expect Aumont to take 3, assuming there is no set backs.
After that there is Clement and Balentien who you've seen, and fantasywise at least Michael Saunders could be intriguing, who profiles as a 20 HR, 40 SB type who could play plus defense.
What do you think of the following prospects in the Tribe's farm system?
A Miller
C Lofgren
W Hodges
T Crowe
B Mills
N Welgarz
Are there any other guys Tribe fans should get excited about?

If Adam Miller is healthy (which he is pitching like) he is one of the best pitching prospects in the minors.
Lofgren looks like he'll be a solid number 3, but nothing really that special.
Both Mills and Welgarz should be big time power threats, all though neither is particular adept at defense.
Crowe and Hodges I never really liked that much, but Crowe has never really been healthy, and if Mills sticks at third Hodges won't have a spot anyway.

drop your pants and bend over. Sherrill will find his place.

That's certainly better than what Lugo is doing and what he's getting paid. What about Michael Bowden? Also, the inconsistancy of Craig Hansen is killing me. He keeps bouncing from Triple A to the Big Leagues. Do you think he will ever produce?

Craig Hansen will be fine, he was rushed to the majors initially when he clearly wasn't ready just months after being drafted, Joey Devine was the same way that year and he's doing fine now. Just give Hansen some time, he has the stuff to succeed in the bullpen, you just have to hope their is no long term mental confidence loss from being rushed and failing right away.
Bowden is dominating AA right now after struggling there last season. He projects more as a durable workhorse number 3 than a frontline guy, but he's probably just trade bait for the Red Sox as he'll be ready long before a spot opens up for him.

Jed Lowrie. He should get regular playing time next year at shortstop and possibly this year if Lugo starts to struggle. Is he better suited at SS or 3B?
- 1 Reply to FantasyWorld
offensively he doesn't really profile to have enough power to have a lot of fantasy value at 3B. He's more the 20 HR - 90 RBI - .300 hitter at SS that doesn't look all that impressive anymore.

Saskatoon's Proposed Anti-Bullying Bylaw Silences Free Speech
More authority and less freedom can be an attractive answer. And that's the problem. Legislation of this variety forces us to sacrifice our right to freedom of expression for the chance that some good might come of it. It's a trade off, and it's too high a price to pay, especially when there are less costly options available.
