Configuring and Troubleshooting N-Port ID Virtualization
Latest Revision:
Dec 9, 2007
N‐Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) is an ANSI T11 standard that describes how a single Fibre Channel HBA port can register with the fabric using several worldwide port names (WWPNs). This allows a fabric‐attached N‐port to claim multiple fabric addresses. Each address appears as a unique entity on the Fibre Channel fabric.
The primary source of information on configuring NPIV in a VMware Infrastructure 3 environment is the Fibre Channel SAN Configuration Guide, available on the VMware Web site.
This technical note provides additional details about certain specific NPIV configurations and information on diagnostic techniques that may be helpful as you configure NPIV. It also includes information to help you understand error messages that may appear as you are working with NPIV in a VMware Infrastructure environment.

Bond king Bill Gross is one of the most closely watched investment advisers on the planet. That comes with a lot of prestige, but also a lot of scrutiny — such as critics maligning his "stocks are dead" call a few months ago, and more recently his rather JV insights about minimizing fees and reducing your investment risk as you age.
And let's not forget his poor performance to start 2011, proving that even big shots can all the wrong shots some times.
But all of this aside, it's always important to check out what Gross & Company are doing over at Pimco — because historically speaking, nobody is better at playing the bond market. And right now with QE3 and other central bank policies in focus, it's more important than ever to get the pulse on Bill Gross and Pimco.
Litman Gregory's No-Load Fund Analyst newsletter recently interviewed a portfolio manager who works with Gross on the Pimco Total Return Fund (MUTF:PTTAX). Excerpts of that interview include the following forward-looking strategies that are being employed at Pimco right now:
- Bill Gross and is Pimco team expect little movement in the Treasury yield curve up to the five- to seven-year point over the next several years. This is not just due to central bank moves like ZIRP and QE3, but also because of a decided lack of borrowing and credit in the private sector.
- Gross has shifted Pimco Total Return from a roughly 0% stake in U.S. government securities last year to as much as 41% in January and currently around 21% as of the end of August.
- Despite the recent reductions in Treasuries, Gross and Pimco remain focused on U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) on the idea that central bank policy will likely result in long-term inflationary fears despite stability in the short-term yield curve. Over the next three to five years, PIMCO expects to earn nominal returns of 3% to 3.5% from the TIPS they hold today, primarily longer-duration issues.
- Emerging-market bonds, particularly Brazil and Mexico, are providing opportunity. Bill Gross and Pimco seem to be betting on outperformance by emerging-market currencies remaining intact for the foreseeable future, though these emerging markets will not be without volatility as the world adjusts to lower growth rates.
So in summation: In the short-term it appears that emerging-market bonds provide volatile but high-yield alternatives to paltry U.S. Treasuries, and that in the long-term an investment in inflation-protected bonds could serve you well.

Travelers can earn a 50 percent mileage bonus for US Airways Dividend Miles or American AAdvantage when traveling on the other airline through March 2, 2014.
For US Airways members, you will get 50 percent more miles when traveling systemwide on American Airlines, American Eagle and American Connection operated flights and crediting your flight to US Airways Dividend Miles.
Visit http://www.insideflyer.com/link/?10584 to register for the US Airways promotion.
For American AAdvantage members, you will get 50 percent more miles when traveling systemwide on US Airways, US Airways Express and US Airways Shuttle operated flights and crediting your flight to American AAdvantage.
Visit http://www.insideflyer.com/link/?10583 to register for the AAdvantage promotion.
The bonus miles are award miles and will not count toward elite status, so keep that in mind when choosing to take advantage of this deal. Also worth note is that if you are an elite member in one of the programs, you might get more miles by sticking with your current program since the 50 percent bonus miles are based on the base miles earned, not elite flight bonus miles.
If you have already booked a flight between Jan. 13 and March 2, 2014, you can get the bonus as long as you register for the promotion at one of the links above.

The company conducted laboratory tests made by the Ideon Agro Food Institute, which showed that our brewing solution is as good as the well-known cafetiere (french press). The cup also features an appealing and exciting design that is actually part of the brewing solution. It easily fits on the rim of the cup, and when you are done, you just pull the string to haul in the bag. Then you can turn it up side down without any dripping or stains. The whole package is recyclable, of course.

Celebrity appearances were a regular occurrence on "The Dating Game," whose host, Jim Lange, it was announced Feb. 27, died following a heart attack.
One such appearance was by members of the rock group The Merry-Go-Round, who had two Top 100 hits, "Live" and "You're a Very Lovely Woman, in 1967 on A&M Records. One of the group's members was Emitt Rhodes, who later had his own solo career and released several critically acclaimed albums.
The group appeared on the show on July 4, 1967, and opened the show singing "Live." Three members of the group, bass guitarist Rick Day (Bachelor #1), rhythm guitarist Emitt Rhodes (Bachelor #2) (who we interviewed in 2009) and drummer Joel Larson (Bachelor #3), all competed for the affections of a young bachelorette.
As usual, the questions on the show were more for entertainment than for getting a date. You can watch the group's appearance in a video found on this page so we won't reveal the winner, but we will tell you she said she did like the guy's voice. And if the comments on YouTube are true, it was anything but a dream date.
(Thanks to Ray Paul.)

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal
Participants include: The Great Khali, Titus O'Neil, Sheamus, Christian, Dolph Ziggler, WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E, Alberto Del Rio, Mark Henry, Goldust, Cody Rhodes, Rey Mysterio, The Miz, R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, Fandango, Damian Sandow, Santino Marella, Darren Young, Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre, Jinder Mahal, Brodus Clay, Justin Gabriel, Zack Ryder, Sin Cara, Brad Maddox and The Big Show
Full disclosure, I love battle royals. The idea of a bunch of wrestlers combined into one match has been intriguing to me since I started watching wrestling.
And to WWE's credit they have always done a good job of trying to get the most wrestlers possible on the WrestleMania card each and every year. Many times it devolves into a battle royal that airs on the pre-show before the pay per view begins.
But this year the match will make the pay per view proper thanks to the stakes involved. WrestleMania XXX's guest host Hulk Hogan instituted this bout and invoked the memory of Andre the Giant to make it much more special.
Twenty-seven names have been announced for the match so far, leaving spots open for returns or nostalgic surprise entrants.
This battle royal has been given much more hype than most battle royals in history, thanks to the stakes involved. Wrestlers have made a big deal of entering the match and claiming the Andre the Giant Trophy. There has been an old-school build to this match, reminiscent of the huge battle royals that took place in San Francisco in the 1970s.
The company is seriously hyping up The Big Show as the winner, what with the Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant connection. It is an obvious and predictable outcome, especially if Hulk Hogan comes out and shakes hands with the winner and presents the trophy. And with other potential favorites like Roman Reigns and Cesaro not in the match, it leaves winners pool wide open.

Secrets of Success
Sunday Morning and a Couple of Thoughts
Sunday, October 28, 2012
I have a couple of thoughts going through my head this morning I want to share with you. I go through spurts of doing well with eating breakfast and then I start to revert back to my wicked ways of not eating until later in the day. This usually happens when I am home and I don't need to be out the door at any certain time. So, this morning I was thinking what can I eat early that will give me nutrients and kickstart my digestive system without requiring me to do much in the kitchen. I came up with a really quick breakfast. It is a banana and 1 T peanut butter.
This breakfast has 204 calories and packs 31 carbs 9 fat and 5 protein. Yes, it is carb heavy vs. protein heavy, but I can eat a protein snack in 3 hours of just a few walnuts, and then eat my breakfast I really love for lunch.
Instead of 2 eaggs I have switched it to 1 whole egg, 2 egg whites, 1 ezekial bread toast, fresh fruit or juic depending on what I have in the kitchen and 4 oz of milk. I love whole milk but I do limit it to the 4 oz. I can't tolerate the fat free stuff. This lunch has 232 calories 18 carbs 9 fat and 19 protein. By the time I have a breakfast, snack, and lunch I still have less calories than I use to eat in one meal and yet I am totally satisfied. This works!
One more thought to share with you. I have a sparkfriend who has been going back and reading all of my blogs I have posted the past two years and commenting on them. I can't even tell you how much this has meant to me that she would take her precious time to want to get to know me this way. We all are so busy that time is one our most precious gifts we can give to one another! It makes emotions well up inside of me even talking about this. It is strange how much emotion I can feel now and how it feels good to let these emotions surface and release. They say a lot of what we feel is not even about what initally sets it off, but it is good to release it. Anyway, thank you so much Reina for doing this and thank you to all of you for the support that all of you have given me. This is to my the new and old sparkfriends. Due to my trust issues with two failed marriages and a best friend betrayal involved in there, I have had to force myself to open up in these blogs. It has been worth the effort. thank you thank you thank you! Did I say
? Well I do.

Thanks for sharing. Re: The trust issues:
I think we re-gain the ability to trust ourselves when we stop overlooking the warning signs others (those who do not have the best of intentions) give us and so learn that we (oneself) are (is) trustworthy.
You're right. It is worth the effort.

I have problems eating in the morning so I drink a low cal/carob protein drink in the morning and I feel so much better. I don't even want to snack before lunch, but the days that I do two exercises classes with 30 minus break between them I do drink a 100 cal protein drink between the classes so I won't get too hunger at lunch time. It really works for me. I like the protein drink because I can get started right away burning calories and I don't have to plan or cook my breakfast. I do cook my lunch and I really spend some time on this meal preparing it so I take the break from cooking Breakfast.

((HUGS)) It has been MY pleasure! And I am up to page 3, counting backwards, by the way. =)
About reverting back to your wicked old ways of skipping breakfast, try this: go to Hobby Lobby or Michaels or some hobby store that has note booking and scrap booking stuff, and get yourself some GOOD stickers for your calendar. They have to be something that truly motivates you and that you love. Even the expensive ones are cheap, when you figure its a few bucks a month to really establish your habit.
Then each day that you eat breakfast give yourself a sticker, and stick with it for a month, or better yet, 2 months. You will stop reverting back if you keep it up for that long. What I do is set up my oatmeal with the peanut butter in it the night before, and lay out a piece of fruit next to it, so in the morning all I have to do is add the water. That is MY favorite breakfast. =)

What Makes for a Certified Window Installer?
From Margaret Everton on October 08, 2009 in Window Replacement
Given the drive for energy efficiency, the generous tax credits now in place, and our ever-growing eco conscience, there is little doubt that plenty of under-qualified, overconfident window installers are tramping from door to door offering their services with a wink and a smile.
Verifying prospective window installers is vital to ensuring that you get quality windows and professional craftsmanship. Of course, valid references and a well-thought out interview process are tried and true ways to recognize a qualified installer, but there are also certifications an installer can have that will help solidify his or her standing and ease your mind at the same time.
AWDI Certification
The American Window and Door Institute (AWDI) is recognized by the US Government to represent quality window installers. AWDI offers window installation guidelines and certification credentials to installers that pass their Installation Certification Training. The training covers all aspects of installation, from preparing the window opening to installing and sealing the window.
According to AWDI, over 90 percent of window problems are caused by poor or incomplete installation. And properly installed windows consistently outperform their stated warranties. To add to AWDI's credibility further, in 2007, Consumer Reports recommended AWDI as a source for certified installers. You can ask prospective window contractors for their credentials when you meet them.
Installation Masters
Installation Masters is another training and certification program for window installers. The program was initiated by the Building Environment and Thermal Envelope Council (BETEC) through the Department of Energy. It is a nationwide program for new construction and replacement installers of windows and exterior glass doors in the residential market.
Certification involves a two-day program culminating in a test of participants' installation skills. Successful installers are issued a Installation Masters Identification Card to prove their certification.
CalFinder Certified Contractors
Of course, we cannot forget CalFinder certified window installers! CalFinder does the vetting for you, and for free. CalFinder interviews and approves local window installation contractors across the nation. And then goes one step further by connecting you directly to these certified local installers for free no-obligation estimates on your new window project.

What causes thrombocytopenia?
Low platelet counts, thrombocytopenia, can be caused by a variety of reasons. In general, they can be divided into:
- decreased platelet production,
- increased platelet destruction or consumption, or
- increased splenic sequestration (capturing of circulating platelets in the spleen).
Some of the most common and important causes or thrombocytopenia are outlined below.
Decreased platelet production
Decreased platelet production is usually related to a bone marrow problem. In
some of these conditions, red blood cell and white blood cell productions may also be affected.
- Viral infections affecting the marrow for example:
- parvovirus,
- rubella,
- mumps,
- varicella (chickenpox),
- hepatitis C,
- Epstein-Barr virus, and
- Aplastic anemia is a general term used when the bone marrow fails to produce any blood cells (red cells, white cells, and platelets), also called pancytopenia. This can be caused by some viral infections (parvovirus or HIV), medications (gold, chloramphenicol, Dilantin, valproate (Depakote), or radiation, or rarely, it can be congenital (Fanconi's anemia).
- Chemotherapy drugs frequently cause bone marrow suppression resulting in thrombocytopenia.
- Some drugs other than chemotherapy can suppress platelet production, such as thiazide diuretics.
- Cancers of the bone marrow and blood (leukemia) or cancers of the lymph nodes (lymphoma) can cause various degrees of thrombocytopenia.
- Cancers from other organs can sometimes infiltrate (invade) the bone marrow and result in impaired production of platelets.
- Long term alcohol can cause direct toxicity of the bone marrow.
- Deficiency of vitamin B12 and folic acid can result in low platelet production by the bone marrow.
Increased platelet destruction or consumption
Increased platelet destruction or consumption can be seen a number of medical conditions. They can be divided into immune related and non-immune related causes.
Many medications can cause low platelet count by causing immunologic reaction against platelets, called drug-induced thrombocytopenia. Some examples may include:
- sulfonamide antibiotics,
- carbamazepine [(Tegretol, Tegretol XR , Equetro, Carbatrol) anti-seizure drug],
- digoxin (Lanoxin),
- quinine (Quinerva, Quinite, QM-260),
- quinidine (Quinaglute, Quinidex),
- acetaminophen (Tylenol and others), and
- rifampin.
- Heparin, a commonly used blood thinner, and similar medications [low molecular weight heparins like enoxaparin (Lovenox) can occasionally induce an immune response against platelets resulting in rapid destruction of platelets. This condition is termed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia or HIT.
- Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a condition where the immune system attacks platelets. In severe conditions, ITP can result in very low platelet counts. In adults, this is often a chronic (long standing) condition, whereas, in children, it can be caused acutely after a viral infection. This is usually a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning other causes need to be ruled out.
- Some rheumatologic condition, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or other autoimmune conditions (connective tissue diseases), can cause platelet destruction.
- Transfusion of blood products and organ transplantation can sometimes cause immunologic disturbances resulting in thrombocytopenia.
- Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) are related conditions that can cause non-immune consumptive thrombocytopenia resulting from some infections, pregnancy, some metastatic cancers, or chemotherapy. Other manifestations of these conditions include kidney insufficiency, confusion, anemia (hemolytic), and fever. Classic HUS is largely seen in children and is generally thought of as an aftermath of an infection with a certain strain of Escherichia coli bacteria (E. coli O157:H7) which causes infectious diarrhea.
- HELLP syndrome (hemolysis, elevated liver tests, low platelets) is another non-immune thrombocytopenia that may occur during pregnancy and can include elevation of liver enzymes and anemia (specifically, hemolytic anemia or rupturing of red blood cells).
- Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (DIC) is a rare but severe condition that may be a complication of overwhelming infections, traumas, burns, or pregnancy.
- Injury to or inflammation of blood vessels (vasculitis) and, sometimes, artificial heart valves can cause increased destruction of platelets.
- Severe infections (sepsis) or trauma can sometimes cause consumptive thrombocytopenia (without DIC).
Splenic sequestration
Splenic sequestration can also lead to low platelet counts as a result of enlargement or change in function of the spleen for a variety of reasons. When the spleen enlarges, it can retain (sequester) more than the usual amount of platelets. Common causes of thrombocytopenia due to splenic enlargement may include advanced liver disease with portal hypertension (cirrhosis, for example, from chronic hepatitis B or C) and blood cancers (leukemias or lymphomas).
- Dilutional thrombocytopenia can result from severe bleeding and transfusion of several units transfused red blood cells in a short time.
- Pseudothrombocytopenia (false thrombocytopenia) is a commonly encountered condition where the number of platelets seen on a complete blood count analysis (CBC) may falsely appear low because of the clumping of platelets together. This can lead to an artificially reduced automated count. If this is suspected, the blood can be redrawn in a tube with a material that prevents clumping of platelets for repeat analysis. A peripheral smear review will identify platelet clumping.
- Thrombocytopenia can also be present at birth, called neonatal thrombocytopenia. Most of these cases can be caused by processes similar to above, although, they are occasionally related to rare genetic conditions.

Changed theme, impending downtime, and some great links for the week
First and foremost as you can tell, I added a column, a special thanks to Chuck from The Financial Journey who helped me out a bunch for no good reason, other than he is a BA. If you don't read his blog, you should.
Next on the agenda, my hosting service is moving datacenters to a nice new awesome place so there will be some downtime this weekend. Do not panick, I have not abandoned all of you if the site is down for a bit, I promise. Hopefully the downtime will only be from midnight-6 am tomorrow night but we will see.
Next some of my favorite articles from the week:
Delayed Tax return from blogging away debt
A bunch of stuff from Suns Financial Diary but it includes a comic about one of my touchiest political subjects, Social security, arrrrgh.
Next up an article on pet costs from my money blog. Honestly I never used to read MMB, but I noticed an unGodly amount of referrals coming from him so I started reading, turns out, now one of my favorite blogs, no joke. Anyway we just got our puppy spayed so pet related finances fits well for the week. Im not sure why but Ive gotten a couple emails wanting more puppy pictures after I posted the CC cutup video….maybe I need to rename this blog from "The Penny Saved" to "Pictures of our fluffy white dog"
Mrs Micah talks about her missing W2. Lost mine once, unfun.
Patrick talks about Job searching while employed. I love career stuff so check that out. Something else about Cash Money Life: the man is insane about reader interaction. It makes it one of the most fun blogs to post on, if you want to be sure about getting a response to a question, and you are sick of my witty humor, go here. Everyone loves Patrick (and Im not exception).
Honest Dollar: "Dude wheres my refund" Sweet!
PT Money, who is my girlfriends favorite blog, has a funny thing on 5 crazy tax write offs people have claimed.
Ramit is back from vacation so you can continue reading his stuff now. Included because he's my favorite blog.
Ive been busting on Trent because of google giving him bizzare ads, so heres an obligatory link to a good article on his career change to full time blogging.
Mighty Bargain hunter talking about the dollar coin, which btw we should have gone to YEARS ago exclusively, but Im not biased or anything.
Lazy man can tell the future, no joke. Oh yeah, its about p2p lending.
JD at Get Rich Slowly asks how you manage your finances.
Credit withdrawl touching another subject that really pisses me off – bailing everyone out.
Pretty sweet, 5 cent nickel got an interview with one of the authors of Middle Class Millionaires
No credit Needed is on a diet – financially and literally.
Hank is giving away sweet stuff, go get it!
Being Frugal, I love tightwad tuesdays. Though I don't follow the tips usually (too much mess for me to mess with personally) I love reading them, and if you're motivated, give it a go
Heres a first, watch me piss off people at Digerati Life in the comments thread, guess Blip Blap wont be adding me to his blogroll anytime soon…but the personal trainer in me makes me cant resist linking to his site, since he lost 100 lbs and completely turned his life around…plus he writes a pretty damn good blog.
Guess Ive probably siphoned enough of what little google pagerank I have for the day, happy Thursday everybody!

It's national Women's History Month. Why do we need a national women's month and why isn't there a national men's month? Because men still rule the world – the fellas have the bulk of money and power — and in this day and age when we are supposed to get equal pay for equal work, women still don't get their due. When will women be taken seriously and no longer have to fight for equal rights and respect!
But though women are regarded as "the weaker sex," there is such a thing as "Woman Power." Chicago has an impressively long list of women who through the ages have proved powerful enough to have made history, one way or another.
A dip into Wikepedia's list of famous Chicagoans is woefully lacking famous females. In the category of crime, for instance, no females are listed. Sure there are plenty of male gangsters who are household names, but female criminals are rarely heard of, even though they too lived fascinating lives.
If not for one female journalist in the 1920's, Maurine Watkins, two of these would have been forgotten: Beulah Annan and Belva Gaertner. Both were accused of murder and both managed to save themselves from execution, largely because they wielded their beauty and charm (a potent form of power) on all-male panels of jurors.
Maurine Watkins publicized their cases and eventually wrote a play glamorizing them, "Chicago," which debuted theatrically in 1926, went through several incarnations, and eventually became the hit 2002 movie starring Reneé Zelleweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Richard Gere which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. Thus the story of three powerful Chicago women.
Although she was born in Kentucky and later passed away in Florida, for most of her life, she thrived in the city of Chicago.
Only 15, she composed her first play, and later that year, started her high school's first newspaper. She went on to write award-winning short stories and became a high school teacher. But her career truly blossomed when she moved to Chicago, became a journalist for the Chicago Tribune and wrote the play "Chicago."
After the stock market crashed and her career started to wane, she moved to Hollywood where things really picked up for her again. Many of her short stories were used as the basis for movies and she also did screenwriting for almost every major movie company. Her most famous movie was "Libeled Lady" with an all-star cast: Jean Harlow, Myrna Loy, William Powell and Spencer Tracy.
She eventually left this world, a multi-millionaire, leaving money to several of her favorite charities.
BEULAH MAY ANNAN ("the prettiest woman on Murderess Row")
Beulah was a married woman who was seeing another man, Harry Kalstedt. One day, after they'd been drinking, she shot and killed him in her home. She confessed to shooting him in the back after they'd had an argument as he was leaving after which she apparently sat there continuing to drink and replaying the song "Hula Lou" over and over for a period of four hours.
She changed her story of how it happened so many times; it's uncertain to this day what really happened. One of her accounts was that she had shot him out of self-defense, claiming he had tried to rape her. So her husband, Perry Stephens, withdrew all his money from the bank to pay for her defense. Even so, the day after she was acquitted, she announced she was leaving her husband claiming "He is too slow." She subsequently divorced him and claimed desertion.
She married a boxer next, but then found out he was already married. Then she drifted from relationship to relationship and eventually spent time in a mental institution. Just four years after her acquittal, she died young, not quite 30, of TB. But her life was not a flop: aside from "Chicago," the movie, "Roxie Hart," starring Ginger Rogers was based on her life, rendering her immortal.
BELVA GAERTNER ("the most stylish woman on Murderess Row")
Belva loved gin — but it got her into a heap of trouble. Shortly after the cabaret singer was arrested and accused of shooting her lover, she was quoted as saying "Gin and guns — either one is bad enough, but together they get you in a dickens of a mess." She shot him in a car and left him there along with the gun and a bottle of gin.
She was suspected of killing Walter Law, who was married and had a child, Sources say she was fed up with him because he'd promised to make her a star but didn't deliver.
Later, the 38-year old beauty claimed she had been drinking and had no recollection of what had happened. She is reported as having said, "Why it's silly to say I murdered Walter. I liked him and he loved me — but no woman can love a man enough to kill him. They aren't worth it, because there are always plenty more." Though she was found in blood-stained clothes with his blood, it was proposed to the court that he had killed himself.
After her acquittal, she remarried William Gaertner, though it was a stormy marriage. She claimed he was an abusive alcoholic. Yet when he caught her with another man, it was she who threatened to kill him.
He was wealthy, and they traveled Europe then eventually moved back to the Chicago suburb Wilmette. After he died, she moved to California where she lived till the ripe old age of 80.
Maybe these were cold-hearted killers or maybe they were victims of awful men, could no longer take their abuse and snapped. We may never know. But what we do know is that they were women of power in the annals of history.
Obviously, killing another human being is wrong -- dead wrong!

New Colorful DSLRs And Q Mirrorless Body From Pentax
Have you been looking for a camera that offers 120 color combinations? Then Pentax has got some news for you with both DSLR and Mirrorless bodies that can be configured in all sorts of beautiful or garish color combos.
Pentax has announced two new 16MP DSLR bodies, the K50 and the K-500, that are both essentially updates to its existing K-30 DSLR. The K-50 replaces the K-30 "edgy" styling with a more traditional DSLR look along with adding improved image processing and upping maximum ISO to 51200. "The K-50 introduces features that raise the bar in the mid-level DSLR class," said Jim Malcolm, executive vice president, PENTAX RICOH IMAGING AMERICA. "Not only do the hardware and software specs outclass competitors, the Color to Order system is an industry first making it a truly unique offering among a sea of similarity." The K-500 is similar to the K-50, with lack of weather sealing being the main difference.
Pentax also announced a new body in its Q mirrorless lineup, the Q7. The Q7 sees a number of new features, an advanced shake reduction system, a new electronic level, an improved Quick dial, and so on. But the most promising feature of the Q7 is that its sensor has been increased from 1/2.3-inch to 1/1.7-inch chip. This isn't a small thing, it's a 52% increase in surface area, and is the same size sensor used in Canon's widely loved s110. "Don't be fooled by the Q7's small size and 120 color combinations," said Jim Malcolm, executive vice president, PENTAX RICOH IMAGING. "As the smallest and lightest compact system camera in the world, this tiny gem is packed with serious specs and capabilities including a number of digital filters and smart effects."
The Pentax K-50 and Q7 are available now via pentaximaging.com (and nationwide retailers in July/Aug) in 120 color combos for list prices of $499 and $699 respectively. The K-500 will be available next month and has a list price of $599.

As a foodie, it goes without saying that I love the show Man v. Food. Check it out if you haven't yet! Anyway, I was watching it last week, and the New Orleans episode came on. Adam went to this seafood house called Deanie's in the episode. Their special dish was New Orleans Barbeque Shrimp. As the very energetic cook pointed out, it's not really barbeque, but the name has stuck.
While watching the shrimp being made, I knew I had to have it. But obviously I am not very close to New Orleans so I had to find a recipe. Of course the original recipe is secret, as all great recipes are, but the Deanie's website actually has an alternative recipe. Between my distrust of baked shrimp and lack of certain ingredients, I had to truly improvise on this one. From it came my own delicious, Asian-inspired recipe.
The best place to get frozen shrimp is Great Valu in Highlandtown. They always have low prices on great quality shrimp. It's also the cheapest place to get basmati rice. You can get two 10-pound bags for $15! For fresh shrimp, the Giant in Dundalk is great. Check out H-Mart in Catonsville for the Thai red chili sauce. They have TONS of chili sauces, so you can experiment! Since ideally you will be dipping your pita in the sauce, the pita bread from Prima Foods is ideal because of it's thickness.
A very important element of this recipe is that the shrimp shells must remain on while you are cooking. This locks in the flavor. It's very messy to eat, but so worth it. Plus, the shells (not the tails and legs, though!) are soft enough to keep on and eat. Being a carb addict, I had to add my two favorite carbs as sides: basmati rice and pan-fried (with garlic-infused olive oil) pita bread.
What you need:
- 1 pound of medium-sized or jumbo shrimp, shells on
- 1.5 sticks butter (8 oz)*
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp Thai red chili sauce (2 if you like it spicy!)
- 3 tbsp Kikkoman Stir-Fry Sauce
- 1/3 plus 1/6 cup of lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped fine (or pressed)
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp ground sea salt
*Only 1 stick of butter is needed for jumbo shrimp
What to Do:
- Let the butter melt completely in the pan
- Mix in all other ingredients except shrimp
- Let simmer until bubbling
- Add shrimp
- Cook on medium heat until shrimp are pink, about 15 minutes (less if shrimp are fully thawed)
- Turn down heat and let shrimp simmer for 10 more minutes
- Put shrimp into a bowl, pour sauce in bowl for dipping
- Enjoy!

Tk::BrowseEntry - entry widget with popup choices.
use Tk::BrowseEntry; $b = $frame->BrowseEntry(-label => "Label", -variable => \$var); $b->insert("end", "opt1"); $b->insert("end", "opt2"); $b->insert("end", "opt3"); ... $b->pack;
BrowseEntry is a poor man's ComboBox. It may be considered an enhanced version of LabEntry which provides a button to popup the choices of the possible values that the Entry may take. BrowseEntry supports all the options LabEntry supports except -textvariable. This is replaced by -variable. Other options that BrowseEntry supports.
Specifies the width of the popup listbox.
Specifies the variable in which the entered value is to be stored.
Specifies a function to call when a selection is made in the popped up listbox. It is passed the widget and the text of the entry selected. This function is called after the entry variable has been assigned the value.
Specifies the function to call when the button next to the entry is pressed to popup the choices in the listbox. This is called before popping up the listbox, so can be used to populate the entries in the listbox.
Specifies the image to be used in the arrow button beside the entry widget. The default is an downward arrow image in the file cbxarrow.xbm
Specifies the list of choices to pop up. This is a reference to an array of strings specifying the choices.
Specifies one of three states for the widget: normal, readonly, or disabled. If the widget is disabled then the value may not be changed and the arrow button won't activate. If the widget is readonly, the entry may not be edited, but it may be changed by choosing a value from the popup listbox. normal is the default.
Inserts the text of string at the specified index. This string then becomes available as one of the choices.
Deletes items from index1 to index2.
BrowseEntry should really provide more of the ComboBox options.
Rajappa Iyer email@example.com
Chris Dean firstname.lastname@example.com made additions.
This code was inspired by ComboBox.tcl in Tix4.0 by Ioi Lam and bears more than a passing resemblance to ComboBox code. This may be distributed under the same conditions as Perl.

Hey everybody! It's Rico! Well, I figured since the other two are going to be lazy, I'll go ahead and give you a heads up on how to view our profile, and a preview into our insanity!
Ok, first of all, if you haven't figured it out already, there are three people on here, me (a.k.a Rico, Kaleigh, Srii, Sirix), Lenny (a.k.a Marlene, Len, Yuki, Kyuxi), and Nami (a.k.a Minax, Madison, Maddie). We'll try to let you know who is speaking and who did what. I'm usually the one to write, Lenny does a lot of art and writes, and Nami also has a trait for both talents, and is our rockstar-to-be. Lenny and Nami are the crazy ones, but I'm more realistic and keep the other two in line... usually.
We're all HUGE Kingdom Hearts fans, and we're proud of it! We also love Poke'mon, Hetalia, and lots of other animes. We'll be doing some roleplay and fanfics soon. Our OC's for our Kingdom Hearts fanfic are Kyuxi (Marlene), Minax (Madison), and Sirix (me, Rico). More on that will be posted later. When we cosplay/roleplay for Hetalia we say that Madison is North Italy (pasta eating freak!!!), Marlene is Southern Italy, and I'm Germany. As you can see, we have our little ^ arguments and disagreements... XD
Warning: we sometimes switch back and forth on our nicknames... it can get confusing.
We love Epic Fails! From now on we're going to post our weekly epic fails to see who's the most epic at failing by summer! Posts will be updated in the Journal every Saturday. Don't think this is just for us! We'd love to hear some of your epic fails, and if we think it's epic enough, I'll write an awesome description of it for the world to see, and Lenny will make a comic out of it! We support Failblog.org!!!
We love our notebooks! Each of us has a unique notebook made by the same company! Inside them we write our imagination, fantasies, poems, all that jazz. We support Piccadilly!!!
Lenny and I are working on an anime collaboration, I write the plotlines, she draws the anime. Nova will be posted soon!
We're addicted to Charlie the Unicorn on YouTube! You might see us randomly quoting things from it x)
Ok, I think that'll be it for now... See ya'!

Letter in Response from Deborah Jowitt
Flash View copyright 2003 The Dance Insider
In a piece e-mailed
earlier this week to the Dance Insider list, Paul Ben-Itzak wrote:
In her 1994 New Yorker
article "Discussing the Undiscussable," Arlene Croce, the doyen
of American dance critics, explained why she would not be reviewing
Bill T. Jones's "Still/Here": "By working dying people into his
act, Jones is putting himself beyond the reach of criticism. I think
of him as literally undiscussable -- the most extreme case among
the distressingly many now representing themselves to the public
not as artists but as victims and martyrs."
Nine years later, Croce
is out of the active critical loop, and Jones is still producing
manipulative dances. But he has not learned nothing from his critical
slap on the wrist. In lieu of putting victims in his works of art,
Jones has now found a new way to put himself beyond the reach of
criticism: Insert the critics into the piece!
In his review of the
Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company's "The Phantom Project,"
a 20th anniversary look back at the company's '80s beginnings on
view at the Kitchen through Saturday, our Chris Dohse wrote, in
"I absolutely reject
the recorded voices of (Village Voice critics) Elizabeth Zimmer
and Deborah Jowitt folded into the sound collage, analyzing and
commenting on the importance of these early duets as we watch them
-- I hear the words "camaraderie" and "structured," the names Trisha
Brown and Lucinda Childs -- as if the opinions of these two critics
dictate public record. Well I suppose they actually do, but really
it is too much to be force-fed this canonization. I feel manipulated."
(To read the entire Flash Review, please click here.)
While I support Chris's
conclusion, it's no surprise that Mr. Jones is a master manipulator
-- he's admitted to as much himself (at a Kitchen "TV dinner" a
couple of years back). But by including the critics' views of his
work in the remountings of the actual work (as opposed to, say,
in the program notes) Jones has escalated his tactics beyond manipulation
of the audience to manipulation of an actual critic reviewing the
Still.... Jones as the
artist might be given the lee-way to frame the performance as he
sees fit; after all, his evident need to tell viewers how important
the work is signifies a lack of confidence that they'll reach this
conclusion independently of being told so.
One should even extend
Ms. Jowitt and her editor, Ms. Zimmer, the benefit of the doubt
that they had no idea on assigning Ms. Jowitt to review "The Phantom
Project" that they would both actually be in it. But once this became
clear to them, Ms. Jowitt, at her own discretion or by her editor
Ms. Zimmer's directive, should have recused herself from reviewing
the performance (She could hardly disagree with herself on the work's
She did not. The result -- surprise, surprise,
a glowingly effusive re-canonization! -- was published this week
by the Village Voice, in what will no doubt be remembered as one
of the blackest days in that publication's life and this deservedly
vaunted critic's career. In addition to "The Phantom Project," Jowitt
considers a work by another choreographer, "Blind Spot." The title
could just as easily apply to the critic herself.
Responding to Ben-Itzak's column, Deborah Jowitt wrote:
You raise the specter
of Arlene Croce, but you make me think of her for another reason.
She criticized Bill T. Jones's "Still/Here" without seeing it; you
go into attack mode based on one Dance Insider's view of a performance
you didn't see. I doubt that anyone but an insider could have identified
the voices, and it was extremely difficult to hear the words, let
alone decide what the thrust of them was.
Although you may consider
the history of my limited participation beside the point, I'll tell
you what I told Chris D.
In the summer of 2002,
composer Helen Thorington approached me about an interview. Her
idea was this: Bill was planning this retrospective in honor of
his partnership with Arnie; to make her music reflect and contribute
to the backward look, she wanted to add intermittently to her original
score a muted mix of voices of those who had seen the two when they
started out (I assumed there would be quite a few voices -- not
all critics). So she asked me questions about the New York scene
in those days -- who was doing what, what seemed to be the predominant
concerns. She asked me to think back to how Jones and Zane first
looked to me, how they fit or didn't fit into the scene. What I
said was meant to be a trip down memory lane from an observer's
point of view. That the observer was a critic was secondary to Thorington's
purpose. Although Chris took our participation as a seal of approval
rather than voices from-the-past as a musical element, it was not
anyone's intent to make the words that surfaced in the score tell
the public that they ought to be liking this 2003 performance because
a couple of critics had put an imprimatur on it.
You imply that contributing
my memories to this performance influenced me to write a more positive
review of it than I otherwise would have. Please! I do not so yearn
to have a few truncated, low decibel phrases of mine appear in the
score for a reconstructed work by Jones that I would consider myself
obligated to rave (which I don't think I quite did). I did the interview
as a favor to Thorington, and, by extension, to a project that sounded
I asked Chris how he
could be so sure he wouldn't have liked Jones's and Zane's early
works if he had seen them in the '70s and early '80s. I I enjoyed
myself at the Kitchen, and perhaps nostalgia had something to do
with it, even though the evening (like many of Jones's) was too
long. (It's too bad I cut words to that effect while trying to fit
my article into the Voice's new and cruel-to-writers design).
You think this was one
of the blackest days in the history of the Voice and my own career.
I have been enmeshed in the dance world in several complicated ways
ever since I started to write. Conflict of interest has often been
a very thin line for me, because of all the people I know well from
having been a performer, choreographer, and teacher, as well as
a writer. You could probably find days that would be, in your estimation,
much blacker than this one.
I did laugh, though,
to see Tom Patrick's mention of me in his review of Tharp's new version of "The 100s" (another
rigorous and pure work from another era overextended -- this time
in an effort to make it more "accessible"). A good thing I didn't
have the space or the inclination to write about it from an insider
perspective, although I did contemplate the idea. Still, perhaps
the next time I review Tharp, you'll think, "Hmmm, Jowitt sold her
soul in order to dance for 11 seconds in the midst of a mob of people."

New WHO report reveals unequal improvements in health in EuropeListen /
The overall level of health across Europe has improved but there are inequities within and between countries, says a report of the World Health Organization (WHO).
The WHO's European health report 2012, covers the region's 53 countries and nearly 900 million people.
The report, which is issued every three years, says that life expectancy is rising across Europe, increasing by five years since 1980 to reach 76 years in 2010.
Dr. Claudia Stein is director of the division of information, evidence, research and innovation at the WHO's Regional Office for Europe.
"In 2010 women lived on average to the age of 80 while men only lived to the age of 72.5 years. So that's quite a difference but this difference is even bigger in some countries. In some countries of Eastern Europe, for example, women live up to 12 year longer than men and that it, of course, also a result of life style choices that men make like increased smoking, alcohol misuse, etc. So we have inequalities again in the most basic of our indicators which is life expectancy."
The European health report 2012 says there is also a continued decline in overall mortality although rates vary considerably across the region.
They are highest in the eastern part of the region and the lowest in western countries, according to the report.
It says non-communicable diseases account for about 80 per cent of deaths.

MEDINA TWP. — Six years ago, Scott and Laurie Christner had no idea where to find food pantries in Medina County. They never had the need.
Last month, the couple visited four as medical bills and reduced work hours threaten to oust them from the Lafayette Road home they built in 1995.
The Christners were among about 100 people who attended Tuesday's Homeowner's Assistance Expo at the Western Reserve Masonic Community Center, 4931 Nettleton Road.
"We're here because there's supposed to be government money for people like us, hardworking, honest people who want to keep our houses," Laurie said.
The Christners, who have two children, hoped to qualify for the Ohio Housing Finance Agency's stability program, also known as Hardest-Hit Funds, to save their home.
Like others Tuesday, they sat down to apply for the funds with officers from the Empowering and Strengthening Ohio's People program. Hardest-Hit Funds provide up to $15,000 for those who are unemployed or under employed to help catch up or pay their mortgage.
The Home Assistance Expo didn't begin until noon, but the first person showed up at 10:30 a.m. to get in line to talk to state finance program officers, said Sandy Davis, administrative assistant to the Medina Department of Economic Development.
"There are people coming in for other things, too," she said. "There is a lot of help for people who lost their jobs and are unemployed or re-employed but not making enough money."
The Christners' story was familiar to the organizations at the expo, including Medina County Workforce Development, Goodwill Industries and Community Legal Aid.
They filed for bankruptcy in 2005, about a year after Scott filed for disability after medical problems prevented him from continuing work at a Medina company where the couple met. Paying for medical bills was difficult, but they managed to get by on Laurie's income, and also had help from their oldest son.
This winter, however, Laurie's hours were cut from 40 to 28 per week, and their son lost his job. They were behind on their mortgage payment by four months but managed to catch up after they received income tax returns.
They've been without hot water before, and last weekend their cable and phone services were shut off. Laurie said she only has $44 until she is paid again.
"You do without to keep what you have," she said.
Kelley Bush, director of workforce development for Goodwill Industries, said she heard many stories like the Christners'.
One woman, she said, took a buyout from Ford and went back to school but was worried about her job prospects. Another woman saw her hours at work were cut and she took a lower-paying job at a financial firm to make ends meet.
"She's worried she won't be able to make a house payment," Bush said. "She's struggling."
Brunswick economic development manager Tim Smith said like the rest of Medina County, Brunswick residents have struggled to find employment and make house payments.
"Because people have been unemployed and under-employed for so long, that's why people are struggling with their house payments," he said. "When it lasts a long time, you start to fall farther and farther behind, and a lot of times you can't do it on your own and you need to find resources to help you catch up."
Contact Lisa Hlavinka at (330) 721-4048 or email@example.com.
Though the Homeowner's Assistance Expo was a one-day event Tuesday, organizations in Medina County are still available to help those struggling financially.
The following organizations might be able to help:
• 2-1-1 is a telephone number that connects people to the right community resources for their unique situation. Provided by United Way, the service is available 24 hours a day.
• Empowering and Strengthening Ohio's People officers at the Medina County Auditor's Office can help people apply for the Hardest-Hit Funds and others during regular business hours. ESOP officers also write new mortgages for people facing the loss of their homes. To schedule an appointment, call (330) 725-9137.
• Problems with foreclosure can mean a lack of funds to do home repairs. Community Action Wayne/Medina has three departments: Child and Family Development, Economic Assistance and Housing.
Its home repair program targets five specific areas: roof repair, electric repair, no heat, no water and handicap accessibility. The Medina office can be reached at (330) 723-2229.
• Community Legal Aid gave presentations on the do's and don'ts of foreclosure throughout the day. Community Legal Aid provides attorneys that offer free legal services to those who qualify. Those in need of advice can call the Legal Aid HelpLine at (800) 998-9454 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday to see if they qualify.
• While there are more jobs available than there were about nine months ago, it can still be tough for those re-entering the workforce.
A spokeswoman for Medina County Workforce Development, 3721 Pearl Road, Medina Township, said "most people think it's how it used to be, where you go door-to-door and fill out applications, but today you need to do more research."
Workforce Development can help people polish their job-searching skills and help them find the right training. The office can be reached at (330) 723-9675.

How is protein load
sensed in the endoplasmic reticulum?
One of the main functions of the endoplasmic reticulum
(ER) is to serve as the cell protein-folding factory.
The ER is responsible for the synthesis, folding,
assembly and modification of one third of the eukaryotic
proteome. Proteins enter the ER as unfolded polypeptide
chains with variable fluxes depending on the physiological
state of the cell. A sudden increase in the demand
for a protein or the disruption of a folding reaction
causes an imbalance between protein-folding load
and capacity of the ER, which can lead to the accumulation
of unfolded protein in the ER lumen. The ER protein
balance is regulated by several signaling pathways,
which are collectedly termed the unfolded protein
response. The unfolded protein response is activated
by three transducers, which are enzymes whose oligomerization-induced
activation is linked to perturbed protein folding
in the ER. Three model mechanisms have been proposed
for how these enzymes sense the unfolded protein
load in the ER lumen: (i) direct recognition model,
(ii) indirect recognition model and (iii) hybrid
recognition model. We developed mathematical formulations
for these mechanisms. We found that our formulations
of both directed and indirect recognition models
have serious discrepancies with the experimental
data. However, our formulation of hybrid recognition
model tests against most experimental results. We
suggest a set of experiments that have not been
yet carried out to test our model mechanism of protein
load sensing in the ER lumen. Our new model also
provides new insights into the mechanisms of protein
homeostasis in the ER.

Guest Post by Brendan Baker of Chegg.com – committed to making education more affordable by offering cheap textbooks for students to buy, rent or sell.
As we look for ways to make education more affordable, what can start as a simple idea can often expand into something bigger. Just as the open textbook cause spawned into a vast network of open textbook organizations and communities, you never know how big an idea can become until you've put it into action.
For Chegg.com it started with the idea that all college textbooks could be—rather should be—cheaper for students. But what if you take that belief one step further? What if students had the ability to rent textbooks, which would make them more affordable while helping to save paper?
The idea snowballed from there, and soon enough a partnership with the American Forest Global ReLeaf Foundation was formed. The idea: for every textbook rented or sold through Chegg.com, a tree would be planted. The result? Since the inception of the partnership, over five million trees have been planted around the world—from the San Juan National Forest in Colorado all the way to Pondicherry, India—and the number continues to rise.
Several years later, the trees are still serving their purpose. Whether it's by repopulating areas that have been damaged by wildfire or through improving the water quality in community rivers, the trees are a much needed presence in their environments.
What's more, since the start of their partnership with the American Forest Global ReLeaf Foundation, Chegg has picked up a few more partnerships along the way, effectively creating what they now call the Chegg for Good program. Their motto: to encourage and inspire students to become active on their campus in social causes and become philanthropic leaders who make a difference on their campuses, in their communities, and around the world. Beyond tree planting, Chegg wants students be a catalyst for change and help them realize their dreams of making an impact on the world.
Among many of their initiatives, Chegg has even hosted a competition where four student founded non-profit organizations competed for a chance to receive additional financial support towards their cause. Each organization posted their story on the Chegg blog in order to help drive votes (and ultimately more funding), to their respective programs.
And it doesn't stop there. Chegg has also sponsored two Habitat for Humanity playhouse builds involving the company's very own employees. In fact, a new employee volunteer program hopes to encourage everyone on the Chegg team to give five days a year, paid by Chegg, to volunteer with organizations that matter to them.
As they look to the future, Chegg continues to seek out influential partners that will expose students to some unique and once in a lifetime opportunities in the philanthropic space. And with any luck, the circle of giving will continue to spread from the high-level organizations down to the young and ambitious students of the world. Once again, a small idea has flourished into a worldwide network of positive and influential change.

When we talk about the 5 Pillars of Restaurant Catering, one of the most important aspects of delivering a successful off-premise catering program is sales and marketing. No off-premise program can thrive without the proper sales and marketing tactics in place to grow the business.
As a sales and marketing tool, online and mobile ordering has the ability to connect your customers with your brand through the use of technology. Research has shown that people who place mobile and online order platforms have an average ticket 30 percent higher than in-store customers.
In terms of the catering transaction, most orders are placed by administrative personnel and sales reps who are looking to feed large groups of people. Therefore, the majority of your customers who use online and mobile ordering options are looking to place orders quickly and easily, skip the line and prepay for their transaction. This is all done with the expectation that orders will be delivered correctly and on time.
This is where online and mobile ordering become important tools to drive sales because they meet the needs of your customers. However, in order to succeed using online and mobile ordering platforms you must have a strategy in place that delivers these services to your guests.
Here are five key ways you can successfully market and promote your online ordering platform:
1. Make your platform user friendly. The harder it is for a customer to order through your online or mobile platform, the easier it will be for them to use one of your competitors. Make your online and mobile ordering platforms customer friendly, intuitive, and set up in a way that speaks to the needs of your customers. Ease-of-use is key when it comes to delivering a predictable and scalable order experience for your guests.
2. Determine the best way to drive frequency.This can be done through promotional offers or discounts given on group orders over a certain dollar amount. Or, it can tie into a catering rewards and loyalty program for your clients. Reward the person making the order as they are the ones who will be responsible for future orders. Play up your strengths and communicate to your customers that these platforms enable an easy and reliable ordering transaction.
3. Drive in-store traffic to your online and mobile ordering platforms.Place signs in your windows and near the counters that promote your catering program and online/mobile ordering platforms. Increase awareness that these tools exist to make the ordering process as simple and seamless as possible. If orders are called in to your restaurants, train your staff to redirect callers to your online or mobile platforms for future use. You can even offer them a promotional code for using the service when they place their next order.
4. Reward first-time users. Do not hesitate to incentivize first-time users of your online and mobile ordering platforms. It has been documented that consumers find it easier to redeem coupons and promotions online or through mobile devices, and will do so when prompted. This means that restaurant operators have an increased opportunity to promote their off-premise program through promotional offers that will drive online and mobile ordering, increasing sales as a result. You can then follow-up with these first-time users in an effort to gather important information about their experience.
5. Follow-up about the customer experience.This is a great way to gather feedback about your online and mobile ordering process. Find out what your customers like and what should be improved. Did they have any concerns after they placed their order or was everything to their satisfaction? Ask the right questions and you will have a better understanding of your online and mobile ordering process.
The right technology tools will give you the ability to substantially grow your off-premise profitability. Meet the ordering needs of your customers and they will reward you with continued service.

Anchos Southwest Grill Restaurant Review: Santa Fe-inspired décor accents a sprawling dining room done in orange, blue and green, while Anchos' kitchen focuses on bright, fresh flavors in classics like fajitas, fondue-like melted cheeses topped with chorizo, grilled skirt steak, and costillas (pork ribs with a homemade ancho chile barbecue sauce). A mesquite grill enhances meats, as well as a signature salmon paired with cilantro-lime butter or barbecue sauce. Tortillas, made on the premises (albeit in a machine located in the center of the dining room), are quite respectable, and the margaritas keep folks happy. For dessert, the ancho fudge pie is decadent, while the homemade flan is a lighter alternative.

You hate Comic Sans? Well, I hate you! So there
Friday morning I arose to the bracing news that the LeBron James controversy had spawned a brand new controversy even more ridiculous than the original controversy (which, if I understand it correctly, had something to do with a basketball player changing teams).
The new controversy is about—are you ready for this? I'm not sure I am—a font.
A font called Comic Sans.
It seems the owner of James' old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, one Dan Gilbert, had written on the team's website a choleric screed accusing James of betrayal, cowardice, narcissism and being not nice.
That doesn't matter. What matters is he wrote it in Comic Sans.
Twitter and Facebook went wild. Turns out there are multitudes of people who have deeply felt opinions on Comic Sans. Basically, they despise it. Helvetica they don't mind. Garamond Italic Condensed gets them only mildly perturbed. But Comic Sans makes them insane. They want to kill Comic Sans.
A few sample screams from Twitter:
LawrenceAugust: Writing a serious attack on someone in Comic Sans is like flipping someone off with your pinky.
louiscalade: stop using COMIC SANS. its one of the UGLIEST UGLIEST FONTS EVER. an eyesore. a design disaster.
jsmooth995: nobody who posts official statements in Comic Sans MS should be running an NBA team
As you can see, there are varying degrees of Comic Sans hatred. The fontamentalists find it despicable and loathsome no matter how it is used. Just a total disgrace. Others merely find it inappropriately frivolous for messages considered very serious, such as, apparently, those involving basketball.
There is even a website called Ban Comic Sans. I'm sure I'll get around to reading it some day in the very near future.
In the meantime, I'd just like to say that Comic Sans is fine. It's sansational. It's a funny font. (The creator, Microsoft designer Vincent Connare, says he based it on comic-book lettering) What could be bad about a font that's funny? I say we need more funny fonts, not fewer, fonts that make the populace giggle instead of going all pompous and serif-conscious on us. Fonts that don't have to bend forward to get their comic effects.
I'd also like to say I'm disappointed that when Dan Gilbert was attacked for his outrageous font choice, he didn't just reply, "Hey, I was being cavalier." But what can you expect from a businessman?
Yesterday, I never heard of Comic Sans. But now I'm its greatest defender. I am the Joan of Arc of Comic Sans. I'm going to make Comic Sans the standard font for all my documents, including codicils to my will and declarations of war against foreign countries.
Now if I could only figure out a way to get this damn post into Comic Sans.

To learn more about the recently released reports and news, please read Are Online Degrees Popular Among Employers?.
|Q: The location of an online school is very important to me. I want to be able to visit the campus to use student services or to deal with any problems. Where can I find online programs at a school near me?
