When I boot my Mac, I have some programs that start up automatically. Where can I see the list of these programs to disable some?

Go to system preferences / accounts / your account and then click the 'logon items' tab. Those are the application that run automatically when you log on.
It's worth looking for an uninstall (unix executable file) for a particular program that's appearing when you start up your mac.
I had installed some software by Promethean (ActivManager) to connect to a smartboard but the software got on my nerves every time I started the mac.
I found the files in the LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons folder but was a bit reluctant to just delete them - I used finder to locate the application folder which contained an "uninstall" program which, when I ran it, cleaned up and removed the offending software.
This might be a better solution for some people.

Devo guitarist Bob Casale died on Monday. A tribute to the innovate member of the new wave band was posted on the Devo site on Feb. 18 by Gerald Casale, the founder of the group.
Gerald talked about Bob, saying he was "in the trenches with me from the beginning." This Casale family member called his sibling his "level-headed brother, a solid performer and talented audio engineer."
According to Yahoo! Music on Feb. 18, the cause of death for the musician, who was 61, was heart failure. Gerald Casale said this was a "sudden death" and "came as a total shock."
Although Devo came into being in 1972, it wasn't until around 1980 when the mainstream scene embraced this unusual group with their hip hit, "Whip It." A music video that owned comical, clever and revolutionary aspects followed, making this one of the first and most popular tiny movies to play on newly launched MTV.
The five original members of Devo hail from Ohio, and were known for their signature hats that resembled plant pots turned upside down. The guys were also know for their sarcasm and for their use of massive video screens during their early performances.
By way of background, Bob Casale is not the only member of Devo to pass way. The band's drummer, Alan Meyers, was 58 when he lost his battle with stomach cancer.
And now Bob is gone at 61. RIP Bob Casale, RIP.

The drama between Apple and Adobe has reached epic proportions. Apple is urging the use of HTML5 while Adobe has resorted to contacting the DOJ for help getting Flash onto Apple devices.
The DOJ kicked off an inquiry a while back that was looking into the practices of Apple with regards to the music industry. The reason for the inquiry was due to Apple allegedly putting pressure on major labels to not participate in a promotion that Amazon was running.
The inquiry has now reportedly expanded into the video arena as well. The DOJ is reportedly asking studios for information regarding Apple and its practices.

Adsense for Mobile integrated with DoubleClick Mobile
Just a week ago we wrote about Google's new product – mobile image ads – which allows displaying image banners instead of the company's usual AdSense for Mobile text ads on mobile web pages.
Now the official Google Mobile blog announces the integration between this new product and DoubleClick Mobile. What this means for publishers basically is that those showing AdSense for mobile image ads on their site will get ads from DoubleClick mobile network as well, resulting in more relevant advertisements and higher revenue. DoubleClick mobile advertisers should benefit as well, now being able to reach a wider audience.
What's more, the integration works both ways, as the Google's press release explains. Now the publishers of DoubleClick Mobile will be able to display advertisements from ad networks (such as AdSense) as well. This is news because DoubleClick Mobile platform allowed publishers to sell ad space on their websites only directly before; now they can opt-in to show ads from AdSense for mobile, and some other networks mentioned in the press release too.
After Google's acquisition of DoubleClick, a controversial move that set off a year-long anti-trust investigation in EU before finally getting approved, this is the first real integration between the two products.

Performing Arts
The Performing Arts at McGehee School are integrated into our curriculum from Pre-kindergarten to 12th grade. Throughout Lower School and Middle School, music and drama are interwoven until they naturally blossom into separate, but integrated departments in Upper School with unique offerings.
In Lower School students are on stage early and often, performing musical numbers and making presentations whether it is the Pre-K/K Thanksgiving Feast, the third grade French fashion show or the fourth grade famous women in history presentation. Each grade level prepares and performs an annual music assembly that ties what they are learning in music class to their classroom studies. The fourth grade musical provides a culminating experience where students can display all of their achievements thus far. A wide variety of choirs at various grade levels provide additional opportunities for students to study choral concepts and provide performance opportunities throughout the community. The eighth grade musical is always a high point of the Middle School experience. Once in Upper School students have the choice of pursuing their musical and dramatic interests in depth through various offerings in the curriculum. The Upper School also produces an elaborate musical each year, providing many dramatic and musical opportunities for students.
Hand in hand, the drama and music departments bring these production to the stage. High quality of performance, commitment, passion, and creativity are the hallmarks of the McGehee performing arts.

well, today 5-4-06 I finally got to see my bestest friend in the whole kitty world again, Dandelion! I have missed her so much...I just wanted to go with her and curl up next to her again....and keep her warm, like we would always do on mom's bed. you see, a few months ago she had to go to the Rainbow bridge and left me behind....I was so sad. I looked for her for days, but she was gone.
When she left, then, I myself didn't feel good either, and my mommie tried to find out what was wrong with me, but the Dr couldn't find a problem with my health at all. But still, I didn't feel good. When my bestest friend went to the Bridge and left me here... she promised me she would wait for me...because she knew I was to come up soon.
I started to not eat, and I lost a lot of weight. Mom tried to find out why....but still the Vet said I was ok....all my bloodwork and x-rays showed that there was nothing wrong. He gave mom pills to make me eat....but I would barf almost everything I ate up. Mom tried different foods...still, I wasn't really interested. I just didn't feel good inside...not at all.
This last week, I really wouldn't eat a thing....even with the pills. I tried to tell mom at nite, by crawling under the covers with her, that I didn't feel well at all, that I felt very cold....even with my heavy coat on.
So Thursday mom took me in to her work again and had the Dr examine me again. I was extremely pale, very weak and wobbley, I had a sub-temp and my skin and mucus membranes were all very yellow in color. This is an indication that something's wrong with my liver. I had lost another pound in weight also. Because of my symptoms and how awful I felt, mom made the decision for me to go to the Bridge and see my bestest friend, Dandelion, I was so glad....now there will be no more pain....and the both of us will wait there for mom....and we'll all be together again someday.
and you know what? I don't feel bad any more, my liver cancer is all gone and I'm well once more!
so...Mom, don't cry....I love you! We'll all be here for you, when you finally get here someday..........we'll all be here!
you have my Love mom, your
Puffy, my dearest Puffy,
My Princess, my Puffy......you were the best kitty, you were so full of love, you were so soft and gentle, you were my oldest kitty, you were the sweetest kitty, you never did anything wrong. I'll always remember you, Puffkins.....I have a terrible hole in my heart missing you.
I Love You, Puffy...we'll be together again, someday. Till then, Good-bye...be brave and take care of Dandelion.....I'll be missing you. I'll
Love you forever....

Best Practices
A convenient way to think of the strategy for success is to picture a three-leg stool. The stool represents the organization supported by three legs, which symbolize these key ingredients. Each leg has very separate and distinct attributes and each is critical to the survival of the organization. The legs of the stool are visionary leadership, internal data from employees and external data from the customers of the organization.
We have developed a set of Best Practices for each of the surveys and tools in our Excellence Series to provide concrete examples of how other organizations are striving for excellence. They include several examples from participating organizations on how they conduct the survey, return the data, increase response rates, and so on.
Illustrations provide physical examples of different media being used to promote the survey or make employees aware that the organization needs it's help in the improvement of the organization. These examples include fliers, videos, etc.
Testimonials are given for various organizations that feel their organization has benefited in one or more ways from taking the survey. The testimonials outline what the organization was like before, the changes that were made, and the resulting benefits.
Case studies provide an in depth look at survey utilization, and the impact of effectively using Survey data to drive organizational improvement.
Forums, Symposiums, Conferences, and Awards are highlighted for their corresponding survey type.

Report Bird Observations [New]
Site MTC07: Potters Creek Farm
Elevation: 969 ft. Potters Creek Farm offers a glimpse into the day-to-day activities of a working tobacco farm. The farm also provides access to several hundred acres of mixed brush lands and pines in various stages of growth. The farm has been managed to promote habitat for bobwhite quail making it an excellent site to search for this declining species. Other birds to search for include indigo bunting and prairie warbler in summer, while a variety of sparrows join resident cardinals and blue jays in winter. If the visitor travels further away from the road there are several ponds that should be checked for migrant waterfowl in spring and fall. The fields of Potters Farm hold a healthy population of white-tailed deer as well as supporting more furtive creatures such as red fox and the occasional river otter. The streams that crisscross the farm are perfect for searching out a variety of damsel and dragonflies and the fields should be checked for numerous wildflowers and their attendant butterflies. Route 899, (Potters Creek Road) is a quiet country lane that offers an opportunity to drive slowly and view wildlife. There are many pull off points and farm roads for parking or further exploration.
From Turkeycock Wildlife Management Area, continue north on Rt. 619 for 2.4 miles to Rt. 890. Turn right on Rt. 890 and travel northeast 8.0 miles to Rt. 899. Turn left and follow Rt. 899 1.9 miles to the two-story gray house on the right. The farm encompasses the fields on both sides of the road. Ask at the farmhouse about access to the rolling hills and bottomlands.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Dario Castillo and Ramon Zuniga were indicted today for their work as U.S. Border Patrol Agents. Dario Castillo and Ramon Zuniga are accused of horrific acts against Mexican nationals while working for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
Today a federal grand jury found that Dario Castillo and Ramon Zuniga should stand trial for a several federal charges. The indictments concern alleged actions against Mexican nationals illegally trying to enter the U.S., or trying to smuggle substances into Arizona.
Among the acts were allegedly telling the Mexican nationals to remove everything but their underpants and run through the desert in 40 degree weather. They are accused of arresting Mexican smugglers, and forcing them to eat their own substances.
Rather than arrest illegally entering Mexican nationals, the two Border Agents would allegedly let the persons run free after they stripped them of their clothes and burned them in bonfires.
Castillo is 23, Zuniga is 29. Both are from Maricopa, Arizona. The alleged acts started in 2008 in the Arizona desert. Both individuals are charged under the Conspiracy to Deprive Persons of Civil Rights and Civil Rights Deprivation under Color of Law; they face 10 years if convicted of those charges. Castillo also faces charges of Tampering with a Witness; that charge carries a 20 year prison term.

"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Carlton Gebbia has been filming the show for a couple of months and it appears that she is realizing just how much drama is involved with filming the show. However, last night she went out to dinner and had some drinks with friends, and it appears that she couldn't hold her alcohol. According to a new Radar Online report published on March 6, "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Carlton Gebbia is now speaking out after passing out during a night out.
While out with friends, she was at the Mastro's Steakhouse with five friends and she had been doing shots of tequila. But it didn't take long for her to process the alcohol in her body, because within 20 minutes, she passed out. An ambulance was called to assist her. However, it appears she is doing well, as she was joking about her experiences on Twitter this morning.
"Sorry!Apparently I don't hve the Irish wooden leg! All is well Thk u. Cant handle 6shots of tequila.Wen did I become such a lightweight?" she tweeted this morning. It sounds like she is doing well, despite passing out. Maybe she should take it easy on the alcohol and focus more on the water.
What did you think of the story?

After a very lavish wedding, Kim and Kanye West started their honeymoon in Ireland. Kim came to the states alone on June 1, 2014. After a brief separation, the couple has reunited to continue their honeymooning phase. This time, they are in Kim's favorite vacation spot, Punta Mita, Mexico. Channel 24 reports that Mr. and Mrs. West are staying at a private residence on the beach.
However, this isn't only a continuation of their honeymoon, they are also celebrating Kanye's birthday. He turned 37 on June 8, 2014. Kim posted a picture on Instagram of the two of them kissing. The message read, "Happy Birthday to my husband and best friend in the entire world! You have changed my life in more ways than you know. The way you look at life inspires me! I love you so much!!!!"
Another picture and Instagram message shows Kanye's birthday cake. It is in the shape of letters spelling out Yeezus.
Some speculate that this continuation of their honeymoon is to work on making their family bigger. Kim revealed her desire to have a bigger family when she was on the radio show, "On Air With Ryan Seacrest" with Ryan Seacrest. Kim said, "I don't think I can do more than three tops. That would be my absolute top top tops. I even contemplate, 'Should North be an only child?' But then I contemplate all the ... fun experiences I had, so I might have to tough it out."

Astoria Applebee is a waitress by day and a New York Times Bestselling mystery novelist by night. Working at the "Daily Grind", a local celebrity hotspot for coffee in downtown L.A. she isn't fazed by meeting and becoming acquaintances with the rich and famous. She is pleasantly surprised; however, that Justin Timberlake enlists her to help him find a "mystery woman" that he's been chatting with online. If she accepts the job she'll be working in close proximity with a guy who makes her want to stab herself in the eyes. If she turned him down he'd find someone else and that would be disaster. If someone else read through those letters and found out the truth Justin would find out her secret. That he's trying to find her.

Afflice in Chains
a Solo DPS Build
by Sheeplover
Blood / Elemental
Active Abilities
- Open Vein (Blood:Possession, Chain, Builder)
- Infection (Blood:Profane, Chain, Afflict, Consumes 3)
- Electrical Storm (Elemental:Spark, Chain, Consumes 3)
- Flashpoint (Elemental:Altered States, Multitarget Afflict, no resource interaction)
- Lightning Manifestation (Elemental:Tempest, Chain, Consumes 2)
- Liquidation (Blood:Chirugia, Multitarget Afflict, Heal, no resource interaction)
- Plague (Blood:Malediction, Elite, Afflict, potentially multitarget, no resource interaction)
- Whatever Rocket Launcher ability you care for / have
Passive Abilities
- Chain Reaction (Elemental:Mortality Curve)
- Salt in the Wound (Fist:The Outback)
- Bloodsport (Fist:The Outback)
- Molecular Exploitation (Elemental:Altered States)
- Criticality (Elemental:Altered States)
- Vital Fluids (Blood:Transmission)
- Gross Anatomy OR From the Abyss OR Live Wire (Blood:Transmission OR Chaos:The Value of X OR Elemental:Altered States)
Open with Liquidation to get it on cooldown, if it's not available. Use Flashpoint and Plague whenever possible, but always make sure the target is Afflicted before using Flashpoint.
Use cycles of Open Vein into Infection and Electrical Storm, dropping Lightning Manifestations whenever you think a fight will last 10 seconds or more. You can't rotate statically, as you've got to react to the frequent Vital Fluids procs giving you free resources – more Blood than Elemental, due to using a Blood builder. If you prefer more Elemental resources, swap out Open Vein for elemental's Arc Flash, another chain builder. I use Open Vein because it casts in 0.5s rather than 1s.
You want +crit rate above other stats. Further than that, crit power, hit, penetrate and defensive stats are your perogative. I gear for crit damage, as it synergises with crit rate, but this could work with frequent critpens or high hit as well.
You want +crit rate above other stats. Further than that, crit power, hit, penetrate and defensive stats are your perogative. I gear for crit damage, as it synergises with crit rate, but this could work with frequent critpens or high hit as well.
What makes the build tick?
This build synergises around the afflicted state, on-hit triggers, on-crit triggers and chain attacks. The triggers synergise as follows:
Bloodsport causes all attacks to apply an afflict. Chain Reaction causes all chains to apply an afflict Molecular Exploitation and Salt in the Wound cause each affict application to cause a bonus amount of damage. Criticality fires off a chain from each critical hit – applying further bonus ticks from the hit and chain. Vital Fluids gives bonus resources on afflict application. All abilities cause an afflict of their own, or are chain abilities, or are both.
Elite passives: Gross Anatomy is useful for sustained fights, as afflicts will fall off from various effects causing more hits. From the Abyss works wonders if you're in close range, as it's an AOE ability. Live Wire causes random high damage ticks against effectively random targets you're fighting.
This doesn't hold up well for farming Nightmare mobs or in dungeons, but it served me well while leveling through Egypt and early Transylvania.

Presented in partnership with the National Museum of American History, the exhibition featured more than 100 portraits and other photographs of African Americans taken by the Scurlocks beginning in 1911 and continuing until 1994. Among the portraits are photos of Marian Anderson, Duke Ellington, Ralph Bunche, Mary McLeod Bethune and Muhammad Ali.
Photographs representing nearly a century's worth of creative output from the renowned Scurlock Studio formed the backbone of an exhibition designed to celebrate the legacy of a noted family of photographers and to present a vivid portrait of black Washington, D.C., in all its guises-its challenges and its victories, its dignity and its determination.
The Scurlock Studio and Black Washington: Picturing the Promise, a collaboration between the National Museum of African American History and Culture and the National Museum of American History, was on display from Nov. 15, 2009 through Feb. 28, 2010. It featured more than 100 images created by one of the premiere African American studios in the country and one of the longest-running black businesses in Washington; included in the exhibition were cameras and equipment from the studio and period artifacts from the Greater Washington area.
The exhibition was the first to be presented in the National Museum of African American History and Culture Gallery, located in the National Museum of American History. The museum is using this space until its building opens on the National Mall in 2015.
Beginning in the early 20th century and continuing into the 1990s, Addison Scurlock, followed by his sons, Robert and George, used their cameras to document and celebrate a community unique in the world. They captured weddings, baptisms, graduations, sporting events, civil protests, high-society affairs and visiting dignitaries. It was for portraiture, however, that the Scurlocks became renowned; they continue to be recognized by scholars and artists as among the very best of 20th century photographers who recorded the rapid changes in African American urban communities nationwide.
Among the portraits' subjects are luminaries such as Marian Anderson, Duke Ellington, Ralph Bunche, Mary McLeod Bethune and Muhammad Ali. Many of the photographs show Washington as the mecca for leaders in African American business, culture and higher education long before New York City's Harlem. They depict successful businesses such as the Underdown Delicatessen, prominent churches such as the Lincoln Temple, myriad community and leisure events such as a summer outing at Highland Beach in Maryland and sporting events at Howard University's Griffith Stadium. The images were drawn from the Scurlock Studio Collection, preserved since 1997 at the Archives Center in the American History Museum.
Also on view were items from the National Museum of African American History and Culture's Black Fashion Museum Collection, and artifacts from Howard University, the Historical Society of Washington, D.C., and the Scurlock family. Among the featured items was the fur coat worn by Marian Anderson during her concert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, an event photographed on Easter Sunday of 1939 by Robert Scurlock. The coat was from the collection of the Smithsonian's Anacostia Community Museum.
Co-curators of the exhibition were Michelle Delaney, associate curator of the Photographic History Collection at the National Museum of American History and Paul Gardullo of the National Museum of African American History and Culture. The exhibition's richly illustrated, 224-page catalog is available from Smithsonian Books for $35.
The Scurlock Studio Collection has been preserved since 1997 at the Archives Center, National Museum of American History.

Apple ordered to run ads saying Samsung didn't copy the Ipad
A UK JUDGE has ordered Apple to admit it was wrong by publishing notices on its web site and in newspapers and magazines saying that Samsung didn't copy its Ipad tablet.
Following the court's ruling on 9 July that Samsung Galaxy tablets don't infringe Apple's design patents, Judge Colin Birss said today that Apple must publish a notice regarding the ruling on its web site for six months, as well in British newspapers and magazines, Bloomberg reports.
These publications include the Financial Times, Daily Mail, Guardian Mobile and T3, and Apple will have to pay for the advertising.
This means that Apple must advertise Samsung's Galaxy Tab devices after adversely affecting the reputation of its rivals' products. Apple lawyer Richard Hacon said, "No company likes to refer to a rival on its website."
The decision was not included in the original judgment, where Birss ruled that Samsung's tablets simply aren't as cool as the Apple Ipad. He wrote, "Samsung products are very thin, almost insubstantial members of that family with unusual details on the back. They do not have the same understated and extreme simplicity which is possessed by the Apple design."
Judge Birss concluded, "They are not as cool. The overall impression produced is different."
Samsung is pleased by the court's ruling, of course. "Should Apple continue to make excessive legal claims based on such generic designs, innovation in the industry could be harmed and consumer choice unduly limited," a Samsung spokesperson said following the ruling.
Apple spokesman Alan Hely told us that the company would not comment on today's ruling. µ

For FB users, The Best 2013 Creative Pay it Forward Idea
This is for Facebook users. I am guessing you could
7 comments:
WARNING. Do NOT comply with this chain letter type message that is going around Facebook like wild fire. This could be a GRAVE DANGER to you and others.ReplyDelete
2013 Creative Pay-It-Forward. The first five people to comment on this status will receive from me, sometime in the next calendar year, a gift - perhaps a book, baked goods, coffee, or, music, or a surprise! There will likely be no warning and it will happen whenever the mood strikes me. The catch? Those five people must make the same offer in their FB status. Who's in?
What is the problem here? If you are one of the first 5 people to post a comment, you'll have to provide the person with your physical location address, in order to be mailed a "gift" at some indeterminate future time.
The reason this is not a good idea is that we all probably have accepted friend requests from strangers who SEEMED to be okay. Or from friends of friends. It's not wise to give unknown, or vaguely identifiable people, your land address, especially if you're a woman, a teenage girl, elderly, disabled, or otherwise vulnerable.
Even if you know the person well, the whole idea of posting a comment to get a "gift" will encourage the meme, the viral aspect of this dubious and potentially dangerous practice. It may even be part of an identity theft operation.
If you are copying and pasting this message, I advise you to delete the post from your wall. Even if you're a good person with good intentions, the very idea of this is not a good idea to be propagating on Facebook. It's a weird way to fish for comments, it's a randomized ploy, and it just accustoms people to engage in potentially dangerous behavior online.
You should NOT give out your physical location, home address, phone number, or other sensitive information to anybody online, unless you really, truly, genuinely know them and trust them, preferably in the real world, and not just as someone online with whom you have interacted and engaged in conversations.
A girl may be a man. A single may be married. A person with similar political views or music tastes could be a predator, hacker, or identity thief. Stay safe. Avoid complying with messages like this that may SEEM good intentioned, but could be a trick to get your home address, then do you harm online or in the real world.Replies
wow, the post is meant to be sent to friends and family as a good thing. Are you trying to make people paranoid. In the world we live in today things like this are few and far between. More like this is needed in the world then maybe people wont be so paranoid. Now i know YOUR intentions are in good faith, but try not to take something like this, that comes from the good in peoples hearts, and turn it into a conspiracy theory! (P.S. i enjoy a good conspiracy theory myself but this is ridiculous)Delete
Steven, while I appreciate your well thought out warning and thank you for posting it here, that doesn't change the fact that this is an AWESOME idea shared with me by a very well intentioned woman, my daughter-in-law. I suggest if people do act on this idea, they act on this idea in an appropriately safe manner.ReplyDeleteReplies
- AnonymousJanuary 07, 2013 3:20 PM
I agree that we should not live in fear and besides it should only be about family and friends that we already know their address.Delete
- AnonymousJanuary 08, 2013 3:35 PM
Thankful for the warning, but I could walk out the door and get killed without participating in this...ReplyDelete
Let's do something nice :)
- AnonymousJanuary 09, 2013 10:37 AM
Within this world we live in that has so much crime, injustice, hate, and violence, it appears that a bit of kindness to "pass forward" is necessary. . . it begins here -without fear and with strength, dignity, and sincerity! This is a way to begin building our faith back into America!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJanuary 09, 2013 2:20 PM
You could just post a poem or link to YouTube on their wall, or get them to do the same. Or make a PO box if you want.ReplyDelete

The Harmony Slidelock Foot Brace Kit adjusts via an extension rod that places positioning literally at your fingertips. No more reaching down into the hull to find that hidden trigger. Simply lift the grip at the end of the rod, slide pedal to desired position and lower grip. Full 13" range of pedal adjustment. The Slidelock is specifically designed to provide secure footbrace position and to resist "pop out." Aggressive foot pedals help cold wet feet stay in place yet are comfortable on bare feet. Retrofittable to conventional footbrace systems. Kit includes pair of footbraces with adjusting rod and hardware.
|Item #:
|Part Number
5 minutes to replace both. Extremely easy to install.
I've bought a dozen sets of these foot braces. Great design except for one flaw. The plastic spring tab which serves to hold the track teeth in place breaks off. I've had more than five sets come broken and the others broke after a few uses. Contacted Harmony. The sent replacements with the same issues. They need to fix this. I use these but make my own closure spring with metal flashing and a screw.
This is the commercial foot brace system we use in our skin-on- frame boat building shop. I ordered 3 sets for myself and our students. They are easy to mount and work well once installed. ACK ships quickly. Overall positive experience.
This worked well as a retrofit in my (no idea what manufacturer) third hand kayak. It's not the same hole spacing as non-sliding footbraces, so if you're not sure, measure the space between your mounting holes and call ACK - they'll help you figure it out. (Great customer service from ACK!!!)

Designing Your 1/2 Page Club Flyer
Build a Recognizable Brand
Every club flyer you create tells something about your company and what you do. Your printed flyers can tell customers who you are and what is unique about your business. Think about creating a uniform visual style for your brand in terms of images, logo, font, and colors.
Your logo is an easy way for people to identify you among the competition. It goes on everything you produce. Look at the logos of companies that have endured over time. Notice their use of symbols, fonts, and strong color choices when planning your logo. No matter where your logo appears, it must be instantly recognizable.
Once you decide the font style for your image, use it on every ½ page club flyer you print. Carefully choose your fonts and stick with them. Pick a font that is easy to read regardless of the size.
Choose the same color palette on all your flyers so people will associate them with your business. Use your chosen colors in your graphics, images, fonts, or backgrounds.
Design a clean and simple layout on your flyers. Have borders and keep your type lined up neatly so it's easy to read. Your layout can help create a distinct personality for your business.
People are drawn to pictures. Use images that are clear and pleasing to the eye. Use ones that are at least 300 dpi. For your flyer, find one strong image that speaks to your audience.
Be Concise
Keep your messaging simple and direct. Tell your reader who you are, what you are offering and what action they need to take.

South Carolina Beats No. 22 Men's Tennis, 5-2
Kevin King and Juan Spir each won their singles matches.
Feb. 4, 2012
ATLANTA - The No. 22 Georgia Tech men's tennis got early singles wins from Kevin King and Juan Spir, but dropped a 5-2 decision to South Carolina Saturday at the Bill Moore Tennis Center in Atlanta.
The victory allowed USC to improve to 6-0, while Tech slipped to 1-4.
The Gamecocks jumped on the Yellow Jackets in double play, sweeping the three matches to seize a 1-0 lead. Tech used three different doubles pairings, putting Spir with Juan Melian, King with Vikram Hundal and Eduardo Segura with Colin Edwards.
South Carolina's Thiago Pinheiro and Ivan Machado handed an 8-4 defeat to King and Hundal, while the Gamecocks clinched the doubles point when Nick Jones and Kyle Koch downed Spir and Melian, 8-6. In No. 3 doubles, Andrew Adams and Chip Cox combined for a 7-6 (7-3) win over Tech's Segura and Edwards.
"The doubles we came out and played tentative and we weren't going for our shots," said Tech head coach Kenny Thorne. "Anytime that happens you will not win the doubles point. We split up our teams hoping it was going to work a little better than it did. We were trying to Spir and Kevin with someone else and see if they could lift them up and that didn't work."
Tech, though, came out of the locker room in good form in singles as King, the nation's ninth-ranked player, made quick work of Jones in No. 1 singles, 6-4 and 6-1. Spir then dispatched Machado, 7-5 and 6-2, while Segura and Edwards each won the first sets in their No. 5 and No. 6 matches.
"I felt like we started well in singles," said Thorne. "The guys came out fighting hard and were executing pretty well. The sustainability of that comes back to how much you truly believe in yourself. We have a couple guys that have some maturing to do. We're close, but we're going need some guys to dig in for us to be successful with the schedule we have."
The Gamecocks responded to Tech's hot start. Cox ousted Hundal in straight-sets, 7-5 and 6-1 and Carl Eguez rallied to beat Edwards, 2-6, 6-1, 6-0. The clincher came in the No. 3 match as Adams downed Melian, 6-2 and 6-0. The day finished up with Koch coming from a set down to beat Segura, 5-7, 7-5, 1-0 (10-6).
The Yellow Jackets return to action Wednesday, hosting city-rival Georgia State at the Bill Moore Tennis Center. The match is underway at 2:30 p.m.

According to TSN, the Phoenix Coyotes hammered the Calgary Flames by a score of 6-0 on Tuesday night.
Coyotes goaltender Thomas Greiss made 27 saves for his second National Hockey League career shutout and first with the Coyotes. Last year while with the San Jose Sharks, Greiss made 24 saves in a 4-0 win over the Colorado Avalanche on January 26.
The Coyotes also had outstanding offense throughout their lineup as seven players registered a multi-point game. Lauri Korpikoski led the Coyotes with a goal and two assists. Shane Doan, Michael Stone, Mikkel Boedker and Martin Hanzal all had a goal and an assist and Mike Ribeiro and Radim Vrbata registered two assists each.
For Vrbata, his two point game was impressive because he was left off Team Czech Republic for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi earlier on Tuesday.
Doan meanwhile scored the game winning goal at 2:07 of the second period. It was his first goal after missing 12 games with Rocky Mountain Fever.
With the win, the Coyotes now have a 15 point lead on the Flames in the battle for a Western Conference playoff spot. The Flames next play the St. Louis Blues at the Scotiabank Saddledome on Thursday.

Underneath the whole Mass Effect thing, BioWare has also been active in several other projects, amongst one Command & Conquer. This isn't an article about that though. Rather, the development team has been working on a fantasy Warhmammer MMO that pits three teams of 6 players against each other in arenas. Warhammer Online: Wrath of Heroes is now in Open Beta as a free-to-play model. Combining BioWare and Warhammer, two of my favorite things in the world; it sounds too good to be true. How come there wasn't a lot more campaigning for this? Perhaps its less than stellar appeal can answer that.
After playing a few matches, the source material of Warhammer barely connects anymore; though it is omnipresent in characters, moves, stages and so on. The action however let's very little of that ever sink in, since attacks need to be mashed at rapid speeds in order to survive and conquer. Then again, stepping back and taking it all in reveals quite a dated look of rectangular textures and visuals that don't wow players in any sense. Arenas are kept basic with vibrant colors, but not much nuance. Every aspect, down to animations and attacks only serves the purpose to keep the battle going. A game doesn't need strong visuals per se, but Wrath of Heroes certainly isn't the top of that claim. It creates an empty or even inexistent ambience that makes gameplay merely a means to an end.
Fortunately, the beginning drive of Wrath to Heroes does titillate with its incessant, quick-fire action that has players running and attacking non-stop. A hero has a set of 3 possible attacks and can get upgraded with 3 perks to alter or enhance the experience somewhat. From there, players can use one standard attack and 4 special moves that each have their own cooldown depending on the force used. Generally, the fifth move is that characters special skill and therefore requires the longest time to respawn. It sounds good on the surface, but here too this all fades into mediocrity due to the game's pace that only allows spewing attacks as a real tactic. This is only slightly altered regarding its respective game modes. Whether players need to kill opposing teams, capture runes or hold control points; everything will need to be done in team and as an attack-vomiting entity.
Additionally, Wrath of Heroes is plagued by some strange control schemes that would feel a lot more natural with a controller. Its third person perspective, without the possibility of an intuitive mouse look, makes attacking and moving around a whole lot harder than it should be. It is possible to zoom all the way in to first person, but that only makes matters worse. On top of that, not all button keys are configurable, which really puts a strain on trying to create a natural key mapping for each and every one. It struggling control scheme is the real deal breaker here, above anything else. The action would flow a lot more clearly if half of the time wasn't spent on trying to get the feel of it right. This can also be applied to targeting, which is tough to get a hold of. It would ease a tactical approach of stinging through to key characters if this would work better. Now, it's more of a potluck.
There are a ton of little incentives though, such as a reel after a match end that adds slots according to certain modifiers. It's also a way for players to gain additional gold and items, though even at the best possible circumstances, achieving anything in the free-to-play version will take ages. This brings us to the next and final nail in this game's coffin: Wrath of Heroes is a decent game for those that can afford it. The basic version is really minimal, with one hero available to upgrade and others free to try, but without the same limited level elements. As characters aren't exactly balanced and people that can afford healers certainly become vital parts of any team; the whole system drops down to a pay to win scheme. For example: A match can land roughly around 100 gold. A character on sale costs around 25000 or so gold pieces and each match takes 15 minutes. Do the math. That's 62 hours of gameplay for, maybe, one character. Good luck in collecting all of them, certainly given the normal price can easily double that.
Let's cut this story short: Warhammer Online: Wrath of Heroes could be a good game, but for it to get to the excitement level it should, it will need to polish absolutely everything. Characters and gameplay are unbalanced, the free-to-play model is hardly worth the troubles, controls need work and so on. If this game wants players to keep coming back after the Beta, BioWare is going to have to rub much more of its charm all over this empty brawler. Right now, it doesn't really apply to either fan base demographic.

Claypot Chicken with Bitter Gourd
Claypot Chicken with Bitter Gourd Recipe
If you do not have a claypot, you can still cook this dish using a regular wok or pot.
Serves: 3-4
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
- half bitter gourd/bitter melon (about 300-400g)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp tau cheo (soya bean paste)
- 1/2 tbsp black fermented beans rinsed, patted dry and mashed slightly with a fork
- 1/2 chicken cut to small pieces (you can also use chicken thighs and other cuts)
- 5 garlic cloves, peeled & bruised
- 5 slices ginger
- 1 tbsp Chinese wine (Hua Tiao/Shao Hsing)
- light soy sauce to taste; optional
- salt to taste
(A) Sauce
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 tsp dark soy sauce
- 1 tsp sugar
- Cut the bitter gourd in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrap out the seeds and white pulp. Rub some salt on the flesh portion and leave for a few minutes before rinsing the salt off. This will remove some of the bitterness (skip this step if you like it bitter). Slice the bitter gourd in half lengthwise again, then cut it to 2.5cm (1 inch) vertical slices.
- Heat sesame oil in clay pot, stir fry tau cheo & fermented black beans until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add chicken pieces, bitter gourd, garlic and ginger. Stir fry until the chicken is no longer pink on the surface.
- Add sauce (A) ingredients. Bring to a simmer. Cover claypot with lid and simmer for about 15 minutes.
- Season to taste with light soy sauce or salt, if needed. If you like, add a splash of Chinese wine to the cooked stew as a finishing touch, and off the flame when you smell the lovely aroma of the wine.
Noob Cook Tip
If your claypot is not big enough to stir fry the chicken and bittergourd, stir fry them in a wok first (steps 2-4) and then transfer the contents of the wok to a clay pot to simmer.

i am curious about the use of the bitter gourd. you mention that the salt takes some of the bitterness away, how much exactly? and is the rest of the dish bitter in anyway?
personally, i love bittergourd, in small doses and would like to introduce it to my american boyfriend but it has to be a right dish to ensure he'll try it again…
yes it takes away some but not all of the bitterness, maybe about 1/3? If you cut the bitter gourd to chunks first and apply salt to the exposed area, more bitterness can be removed. Some people also par boil the bitter gourd in salted water, but I personally don't like that method. The gravy has a slight bitter taste, the chicken is not bitter.
Wow! A traditional claypot! That sounds interesting…Hmmmm…bittergourd? I know it is very nutritious but not really a fan of it. I have learned though that if it has been soaked in water it becomes less bitter in taste, not sure if the nutrients get washed off along the process. This recipe looks good though, quite agressive! Thanks for sharing!
Does a claypot take very long to start cooking (like slow cooker)? If not, i think i will go and buy one. It would be so nice to cook and serve in one :P
No, it's about the same as heating up a normal pot. But instead of using high heat right away, start with medium flame to heat up the pot, then gradually increase the temperature. At least that's what I do, in case the sudden change in temperature cause the clay pot to break.
I haven't eaten bitter gourd for a long time because I have a picky eater (senior) who refuses to try it no matter what. :(
A perfect autumn dish. I miss bitter gourd.
Clay pot cooking is so lovely. I've been reading about clay pots used for Moroccan food lately. They hold heat so well, and they look great. This dish does sound like total comfort food!
how can we proceed/make that claypot chicken w/ bitter gourd if we didnt have an sesame oooilll?
are the claypot chicken w/ bitter gourd are tasty,aren't it?
i a like this recipe but can you show me how get rid of the bitter tatse..
Just cooked this dish today and it smelled heavenly! I learned from a book that we should 'scald' the bittergourd and chicken in hot oil first before cooking it in the claypot to preserve the moisture as well as retain the shape :)
that is a great tip, thanks for sharing! I think all zi char scald most of the ingredient before stir-frying first, but I won't do it for home-cooking because of the work, lol

LAS VEGAS — Jalil Abdul-Bassit couid sense it during warmups.
"How does it feel?" sophomore Ben Carter asked the UO junior guard Wednesday prior to Oregon's first-round Pac-12 Tournament matchup against Oregon State.
"It feels flat," Abdul-Bassit said.
A junior college transfer, Abdul-Bassit hasn't played major minutes for the Ducks this season. But he's clearly capable of taking the pulse of the team. Because once Wednesday's game tipped off, Oregon missed its first nine shots, and the Beavers scored the first nine points.
Thanks to the contributions of the UO bench, however, the Ducks (23-8) moved on with an 88-74 victory in the MGM Grand Garden Arena, their eighth straight win. Carter, Dominic Artis, Elgin Cook and Jason Calliste were on the floor for decisive UO runs in each half Wednesday, setting up a quarterfinal matchup against second-seeded UCLA on Thursday night (6 p.m. PT, Pac-12 Networks).
"As soon as we got in there, we turned it on and the game kind of turned around," Carter said. "From that point on we really knew that we could get this thing going, and that this lineup was good for us tonight."
As the tournament's No. 7 seed, the Ducks knew they'd need their bench if they were to play four games in four days, and reach the tournament final. They just probably didn't know the bench would essentially win a game on its own.
But, as UO assistant Kevin McKenna pointed out to the team in the locker room, Oregon's bench outscored its OSU counterparts by an astounding 46-6.
"That's a team, guys," McKenna said.
"We had a lot of contributions from a lot of guys," head coach Dana Altman told the players in the locker room. "If we're going to finish strong, that's what it's gotta be. We're a team, fellas."
The quartet of Artis, Calliste, Carter and Cook first took the floor together early in the first half, the Ducks trailing 15-7. Teaming with Damyean Dotson, the group was asked to press on defense and responded with a 19-4 run.
Cook was everywhere during the spurt, scoring, rebounding and forcing turnovers, including drawing a charge. He finished with a game-high three steals.
"I think it sped them up just a little bit," Cook said of the press, which contributed to 15 OSU turnovers, compared to five for Oregon.
Oregon led 26-19 by the end of the run. Carter went to the bench shortly after with his second foul, and OSU took advantage by attacking the post to get within 41-40 at halftime.
The two teams went back and forth to start the second half, OSU taking a 57-54 lead on an Angus Brandt three-pointer with 14:26. Minutes later, Artis, Calliste, Carter and Cook were reunited, this time with Joseph Young.
The Beavers ended up going 8:24 between made baskets, with the Ducks putting together another 19-4 run. At one point Young scored 10 straight for Oregon, on a series of acrobatic drives to the basket.
Young finished with a UO-high 19 points, 15 of which came in the second half, after he watched the reserves overcome Oregon's slow start in the first.
"I was on the bench like, 'They might as well stay out there and keep playing,'" Young said. "They were out there doing a great job. We need more of that, and we need it tomorrow."
It was Dotson on the floor with the Artis-Carter-Calliste-Cook quartet in the first half. Before they began their run, Dotson said he gathered with Artis, Carter and Cook, and realized that foursome figures to be a major part of the team's core next season.
"We were like, this could be the team next year," Dotson said. "We could see how it is to play together, and we just went out and played hard."
Dotson was particularly happy for his roommate and fellow sophomore Artis, who had 10 points and six assists in 23 minutes. It's been a trying year for Artis, beginning with a nine-game suspension, but he enjoyed a big night Wednesday.
"I was proud of him," Dotson said.
Artis' play meant the Ducks only used 15 minutes from starting point guard Johnathan Loyd in the first round. Similarly, Carter's 20 minutes kept Waverly Austin on the bench for all but seven, and Dotson only needed to play 23.
"We saved our legs," said Young, who played 27 minutes. "I don't feel tired or anything."
Credit that to the big minutes from Artis, Carter, Calliste and Cook, behind whose efforts the Ducks live to fight another day. They'll next try to repeat the feat from Loyd's freshman year in 2011, when the seventh-seeded Ducks won in the first round, then met No. 2 seed UCLA in the quarterfinals and won, 76-59.
"Fellas, I want you to be pleased," Altman told the team, "but not in any way satisfied."
NOTES: Oregon's 46-6 advantage in bench scoring was led by Calliste (17), Artis (10) and Carter (eight). UO's scoring margins were plus-28 with Calliste in the game, plus-25 with Artis and plus-24 with Carter. … In the first postseason meeting between the two schools, Oregon won the 342nd edition of the Civil War. … Loyd passed Luke Ridnour (2000-03) for fourth in career steals with his 151st career swipe on Wednesday. … Oregon's 80-percent shooting in the second half (16-of-20) was the team's best in any half this season. … Artis' 10 points were his most since tallying 10 against USC on Feb. 6. He added six assists, his most since a season-high seven at Colorado on Jan. 5. … UO shot 64 percent from three-point range (10-of-16). Oregon has made 71 three-pointers in its past eight games, all victories, averaging 8.9 per game in that stretch.

Alfred Hitchcock Looks at You - Tuesday, Oct 21 at 7:30PM; Free
Most people think of Alfred Hitchcock as the "Master of Suspense," but the director was concerned with much more than just keeping you on the edge of your seat. What do we make, for example, of all the films in which he made a personal appearance? Sometimes he even looks directly at the audience. Hitchcock had his own personal take on what it means to look, especially at something that we are not supposed to be looking at. We will watch crucial scenes from several films in which Hitchcock invites us to join him in his own special brand of voyeurism.
The Craft of the Choreographer - Tuesday, Nov. 18 at 7:30PM; Free
As the Hollywood cinema came of age in the 1930s, choreographers became increasingly essential when the screen was filled with dancers. Most of the great choreographers worked behind the scenes and were seldom recognized. We will celebrate Busby Berkeley, Gene Kelly, Bob Fosse, Jerome Robbins, and Agnes de Mille, all of whom deserve their celebrity. But we will also take a look at great dances staged by artists who are not as well known, including Hermes Pan, Michael Kidd, and Katherine Dunham. Featured films include Silk Stockings, Stormy Weather, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, All That Jazz, West Side Story, and Oklahoma.

Oscar Pettiford: All The Things You Are
All The Things You Are
Oscar Pettiford (cello)
Vienna Blues: The Complete Sessions (Black Lion 760104)
Oscar Pettiford (cello),
Hans Koller (tenor saxophone), Attila Zoller (bass), Jimmy Pratt (drums).
Composed by Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II.
Recorded: Vienna, January 9, 1959
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
Oscar Pettiford came into prominence during the 1940s through his associations with Coleman Hawkins, Dizzy Gillespie and Duke Ellington. While working with Woody Herman in 1949, Pettiford suffered a broken arm and found it difficult to play the bass. For rehabilitation purposes, he learned to play the cello and after his recuperation, he played it occasionally on gigs. A shining achievement of his cello technique is his 1959 version of "All The Things You Are."
Pettiford plays the introduction arco, then Koller enters with the melody. Throughout the first chorus of the song, Pettiford develops a call and response pattern with Koller. During his solo from 1:59-2:52, Pettiford incorporates several techniques including even eighth-note patterns, note bends and slides. Zoller enhances the performance by choosing notes that further develop the contour of Pettiford's solo. "All The Things You Are" serves as a great addition to the history of the cello in jazz and to Pettiford's late discography.

I realize that in our culture the word "lust" can be understood quite broadly, from "lusting after a chocolate bar" to simply finding another person to be sexually attractive.
But for the Catholic Church, to lust is to seek sexual pleasure in another person solely for one's own pleasure without regard for the other person. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states: " Lust is disordered desire for or inordinate enjoyment of sexual pleasure. Sexual pleasure is morally disordered when sought for itself, isolated from its procreative and unitive purposes" (CCC 2351).
To have sexual feelings for one's spouse or to enjoy sexual pleasure with one's spouse is fine and according to God's design. But to use one's spouse as an object of pleasure without concern for the spouse is mortally sinful.

Handgunlaw.us is going to add info on carrying concealed with your self defense firearm with a permit/license while hunting. Is this legal in your state? A link or Alpha/Numeric citation from your state laws or Regulations would be greatly appreciated if the answer is either yes or no. I believe most of the Laws/Regs on this will be in the game laws. I can find the info but it saves me a tremendous amount of time if I know exactly where to look. Plus I like to give the Alpha/Numeric Citation so people can look up the law and confirm it. Any assistance you could give Handgunlaw.us would be greatly appreciated.
This info will be listed in the Misc Information Section like this:
Carrying of Concealed Firearm with Permit/License While Hunting? YES or NO (With Law/Reg Alpha/Numeric Citation)
If there are any stipulations like, not when Bow Hunting Etc., it will be listed also.
Thank you for your help. It is very much appreciated.
