Regardless of their pros and cons, fast-set acrylics certainly have enthusiastic users.
Debbie Johnson, owner of Savoir-Faire salon in Kansas City, Mo., and an educator for Tammy Taylor Nails (Irvine, Calif.), says, "I've been a nail technician for 15 years and I think fast sets are the best thing that s happened to the industry. I've always been fast with my hands, and when I first tried fast sets back in 1991, I became hooked. I started practicing on myself, and I loved the way it set up." Johnson also likes the fact that fast-set acrylics allow clients to get in and out of the salon faster. "People are always in a hurry, and for me, time is money" she says.
Speedy hands are also the case for Michele Schaaf, a New Jersey-based regional account executive; for Star Nail Products (Valencia, Calif.), who loves fast-set acrylics. "I felt like I was working too quickly with traditional acrylics because I had a lot of downtime during the service. For example, if a client came in for a routine fill, after I was done applying the acrylic, I would have to wait for it to set up before I could start filing. These days, many clients don't have that extra time — it's their lunch hour or they have to pick up the kids from day-care."
Liza Ferraro, owner of California Concepts in La Mesa, Calif., and a platform artist for NSI (Conshohocken, Pa.), made the switch to fast sets because of time and crystallization problems she was having with traditional acrylics. "Standard acrylics crystallize if the room temperature is too cold, if the client's hands are too cold, and if the product is too cold," she says. "A fast-set powder, on the other hand, isn't as temperature-sensitive because it sets up the product more quickly."
"Everything speeds up immensely with a fast-set acrylic," says Sheri Cortelloni, a nail technician/hairstylist at Scissor Hands in Oak Lawn, Ill. "I can do a quick fix in 10 minutes with a fast-set acrylic instead of 15-20 minute's with a traditional one. It's a great timesaver."

Respected rugby referees Jim Curran and Kirk Rae reached significant milestones at the same time but at different grounds last Saturday.
Both officiated for the 100th time in Southland senior club games held in the province.
Curran, 48, thoroughly enjoyed refereeing the entertaining Central Pirates/Star versus Wrights Bush clash, won 22-3 by hosts Central Pirates/Star at Wilsons Crossing.
"The game between the good rugby neighbours was full of passion and enthusiasm and showcased the fine heart country rugby is in," Curran enthused.
Rae, the referees' education officer, was running the game at Bluff's historic Foyle Street ground where the local team hosted Drummond-Limehills Star.
Rae, 37, said he would love to still be refereeing when he reached Curran's age.
Curran is also widely known as an owner and trainer in thoroughbred racing and is the son-in-law of outstandingly successful racing industry identities Kelly and Isla Thompson of East Road.
He is married to Gaylene, whose sons Josh, 22, and John, 20, have inherited some of their father's deep interest in rugby and racing.
Rae observed: "Changes to rugby rules and regulations are an on-going exercise but are not made by referees whose sole lot was to apply them properly on the playing field."
Curran, a boning room supervisor at the Alliance Group's Lorneville plant, said his overall number of games controlled at all levels would be "in excess of 1000 since I first officially blew a whistle in an Under-13 Pirates versus Old Boys game at Turnbull Thomson Park 23 years ago."
"I was the most nervous I have ever been before a game It was like sailing into uncharted waters."
Rae officiated for the first time in an Under-14 game at Nightcaps in 2000 but said his first senior game three years later at Tokanui was a daunting "baptism of fire" in an area that has produced more tough rugby forwards than refined choir boys.
Both referees subscribed to the theory that they should not be too officious when penalising players.
Curran said most rugby players accepted decisions in general but some could be "borderline" when reacting to calls against them.
Curran is acclaimed for one mannerism many felt counted in his favour at "ticklish" times when penalising players - he often wore the faintest suggestion of a smile which served to "diffuse" a tough nut.
After all, a ref might have to appreciate that players were also participating for enjoyment and the odd hiccup could arise.
"I'm pleased to report I have not experienced an unsavory incident with a player and have got through happily with nothing but good memories."
When Rae was appointed Referee Education Officer by the Southland union he played a key role in recruiting Curran who had earlier been involved as a CUE Television commentator with Tom Conroy while recovering from injury.
When CUE began to phase out of that service, Curran was free to accept a refereeing offer from Rae and has never regretted it.
Rae touched on the interesting point of the importance attached to physical fitness and other key requirements of refereeing by the many fine referee coaches and advisers that he, Curran and many others benefitted from while learning the ropes.
On reflection they appreciated that a referee wasn't worth his salt and would not progress further unless he was fit.
The likes of internationally acclaimed Dave Bishop, then of Te Anau, Trevor Proctor, Keith Brown, John Maguire, Mike Saunders and Mike Mannix played major general roles initially and Pat Quirke, Dick Russell and Alastair Ball featured in short and sharp fitness sessions specifically tailored to meet Rae's requirements.
"It was a little demanding at first but eventually we got to enjoy it," Rae recalled.
He said that there were about 65 referees in Southland but a schedule of about 55 games each weekend made stern demands on them.
He said all referees were at various stages of regular technical monitoring and guidance by respected old hands.
Curran and Rae accepted that referees had to absorb "heated sideline advice and criticism" but Curran said he would not hesitate to react if a person "stepped over the mark and became too personal."
Rae said he would always welcome genuine inquiries from those aspiring to be referees.

Galveston Island Shrimp Festival
Are you a lover of all things shrimp? Then head for the first Galveston Island Shrimp Festival. A hundred teams are participating in a cookoff in hopes of placing their winning gumbo on the menu of Yaga's Cafe for one year - and $1,000 in prize money. There's also gumbo tasting, a 5K run/walk benefiting the University of Texas Medical Branch, a merchant walkabout, live music, wine tastings and the Whimcycle Shrimpcycle (a bike cruise that ends in a Texans tailgating party). Organizers say that despite the Gulf oil spill, there's no reason to fear the shrimp being used by the cooks at the festival. Times vary. Friday through Sunday.

This picture shows a thin film of soap directed vertically from the ground using a wire loop. A Canon digital camera, with power shot SD 400, and 5.0 mega pixels was used to take this image. The pattern appearing in the photo is produced through optical interference when a thin film reflects light. When the light rays strike the surface of the thin film, some of the light is reflected, while some is refracted. On the bottom surface, a similar process is occurring. As a result, two rays are reflected to the eye of the observer: the first ray from the top surface and the second ray from the lower surface. The pattern seen in the photo also results from the constructive and destructive interference pattern. Also, the effect of gravity (on a vertical soap film) causes the film to portray the patterns illustrated in the photo: thick at the bottom and thin at the top. The interference pattern was created using sunlight at sunset time, which is why an image of the sunset is visible in the photo.

Art of Physics
Crayon Energy
Energy- it is something everyone uses on a daily basis. Without energy nothing would be able to move, get heated up, break apart, etcetera. There are many forms of energy and this picture showcases a couple of them. It was made by using a blow dryer to melt the crayons onto a canvas. Due to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be destroyed, so it converts into another form in a process called energy transformation. In this case, the whole process starts with the blow dryer. The electrical energy (current electricity) runs through the blow dryer creating sound energy and thermal energy. The thermal energy is transferred to the crayons which transforms into kinetic energy as the crayons start to melt. The kinetic energy of the melting crayons is affected by the crayons' gravitational potential energy. This explains why the wax and colours flow in a uniform direction. Due to the force of gravity, the crayons flow downwards while they are being melted and not left or right. And that's the physics behind the art piece.

Tchin! Tchin!
Le phénomène physique représenté dans cette photographie est classé dans la catégorie de l'optique. C'est un phénomène que l'on nomme la réfraction de la lumière. Lorsqu'un rayon lumineux change de type de milieu (dans ce cas-ci, de gazeux à liquide), il dévie dépendamment de l'angle par lequel il est entré en contact avec ce nouveau milieu. Dans le cas de l'illustration présentée, la source lumineuse est déviée de sorte qu'elle atteigne l'extrémité opposée de la bouteille par rapport à la coupe qu'elle a traversée. C'est pourquoi les couleurs de la bouteille et du mur semblent inversées dans le liquide.

Reverberating Polysaccharide
This is a picture of a Non-Newtonian Fluid (made of cornstarch and water) placed on a speaker vibrating at a particular frequency which disturbs the surface of the fluid. A Non-Newtonian Fluid is a fluid that does not have a constant viscosity when disturbed. When it is left alone it takes on the appearance of a liquid. However, when a stressing force (push and/or pull) acts upon the substance, it reverts to a more solid form. A mixture of cornstarch and water is a suspension; the particles of cornstarch are mixed in with the water but remain solid. The water is squeezed out from the space between the cornstarch particles when there is abrupt movement. As a result, the friction between these particles increases radically. The percussive movements of the speaker generate disturbance through the Non-Newtonian Fluid which acts as a medium. The waves travel through the medium and create the finger-like protrusions and cause the mixture to reverberate.

Miscibilité et masse volumique
L'injection de mélasse dans un verre contenant de l'eau et de l'huile donne naissance à plusieurs phénomènes physiques. On peut observer que les substances se séparent en trois étages distincts. Au fond du verre, on retrouve la mélasse, au milieu, l'eau et sur le dessus, l'huile. Cette superposition des liquides est due à la variation des masses volumiques des différents liquides. On peut ensuite observer le phénomène de miscibilité et de non miscibilité des liquides. La mélasse, qui est en fait de l'eau sucrée, va tranquillement se mélanger avec l'eau. Ces deux substances sont donc miscibles entre elles. L'eau et l'huile ne sont cependant pas miscibles entre elles. La molécule d'huile a une tête hydrophobe (tête repoussant l'eau) et une queue hydrophile (queue rejetant l'eau). Ainsi, quand l'huile est poussée par la mélasse au fond de l'eau, elle forme des bulles de masse volumique inférieure à celle de l'eau. Dans ces bulles, toutes les têtes des molécules d'huile se retrouvent au milieu afin de fuir les molécules d'eau et les queues vont former les contours des bulles puisqu'elles sont attirées par les molécules d'eau.

Infrared Insanity
There are many different kinds of electromagnetic waves. Only a small amount can be seen with the human eye. This is called visible light. With special equipment other types of electromagnetic waves can be seen. In this case, infrared rays are being seen. They are similar to visible light, but cannot be seen by the human eye, as they have longer wavelengths than the eye can perceive. Some are reflected, some are absorbed and some are transmitted. In this case, the amount of heat absorption is seen. Objects being seen as blue are the coolest and the objects being seen as white, are the warmest. Clearly, this demonstrates that some electromagnetic waves that can't be seen with the naked eye can be detected if the right instruments are used.

The Diverging Glass
To create this image, I used a crystal glass and took the photograph looking directly through it. Due to the cup's construction, there were little dips near the bottom that produced their own smaller and curved separate views of the same landscape. The reason for the curved smaller images is due to the fact that the dips and bottom of the cup have the shape of a concave lens. Concave lenses have their outer side curving inward which causes the parallel incoming rays, also known as incident rays to diverge. The reason for the multiple images is due to the fact that the dips each had different angles, so when the incident rays hit them it created another separate view with the concave lens image properties.

Spoon and Milk
This photograph was taken in my home, using a spoon and milk. I put the spoon parallel to the surface of the milk, and then slowly lifted the spoon. Using cohesion in the surface tension of the milk, it becomes attracted to the surface of the spoon because of the attraction between like to like molecules. The milk is seen slightly lifted and attracted to the spoon before falling back down because of gravity.

Reflective Rays
In this photograph, the physics occurring is due to the light rays of the sun reflecting off of the H2O molecules in the atmosphere. The rays appear to be extremely close to parallel because the light source (the sun) is essentially, infinitely far away and the clouds have provided themselves as obstacles to allow light form the sun to only pass through certain areas, giving a beautiful effect to the atmosphere.
The rain on the left area of the photo is being swept to the right, due to an impulse delivered by the wind, making it appear that the light rays are intersecting nearly perpendicular to the rays penetrating the clouds from the left.

"Blur" - Centrifugal Fan
The photo shows a powered three-bladed electric fan held over a black light. Taped onto each blade is a bit of string, and each bit of string holds four pieces of fabric: yellow, orange, blue and pink. Because of the black light, the pieces of cloth are illuminated and easier to see, creating a colourful blur of light.
With the fan powered down, the pieces of string and cloth would be hanging vertically away from the blades. However, once you turn on the fan, the pieces of string and cloth begin to revolve and are flung horizontally, constantly pulling away from the center of the fan. This outward flinging force is known in physics as centrifugal force, a form of inertia.
According to the law of inertia, objects tend to resist any change in their motion. Therefore, each piece of cloth should be following a straight path, flying away from the fan, not a curved path. Because of the string, the cloth's inertia is constantly being redirected making it turn, not allowing the cloth to fly in a straight path. Centrifugal force is the outward force displayed when a revolving object tries to follow its natural straight path.

Heavenly Hallway
When we see light with the naked eye, we only see one color. However, if we were to diffract this light, we would see what is called a diffracted spectrum. In this photo we see a prime example of this effect by diffraction grating. Diffraction grating splits and diffracts light into several components, in this case the spectrum. In this photo, we see sunlight streaming through a window to light a high school hallway. By placing diffraction grating glasses in front of the camera lens, the sunlight was diffracted and displayed beautiful spectra.

Le monde est à l'envers
Ma photo démontre la convergence en physique optique ou l'inversion d'image réelle. La lumière qui provient du paysage passe à travers la boule en verre, ou "lentille convergente", et se fait réfracter pour former une image réelle située derrière la lentille. Mais la lumière n'arrête pas là. En continuant son passage, les rayons lumineux se croisent au point focal et finissent par inverser l'ordre d'orientation de ces rayons. Cela fait donc inverser l'image en soi.

The Bending of an Electron Beam
The photograph shows the trajectories that an electron beam follows when it moves through a uniform magnetic field. The tube contains a small amount of mercury gas that is used to make the electron beam visible. Electrons are accelerated by a potential difference applied between two plates and they collide with the gas atoms emitting a characteristic green light. When the velocity of the charged particles is perpendicular to the uniform magnetic field, they experience a magnetic force that makes them move in a circular path (left side). However, if the direction of the velocity of the beam is at some arbitrary angle, the charged particles describe a helix (right side).

Laser Diffractions
This picture represents the effects of different wavelengths of light with a diffraction grating. Using a green laser of wavelength 532 nm, a red laser of wavelength 670 nm, and diffraction grating of 600 lines/cm, an interference pattern was produced. In order to view the interference pattern, a smoke machine was used to produce neutrally buoyant reflective gas to make the light beams visible for the camera. The physics involved in the image demonstrates the dependence of diffraction pattern on wavelength where dsin theta = m lambda, where d is the separation of slits, theta is the angular spacing between maxima, m is the order of maxima and lambda is the wavelength. Given the red laser's longer wavelength than the green laser, angle theta between the maxima and the central maximum is larger, for the red. This is clearly shown by the numerous green maxima occurring between adjacent red maxima. Note the violet laser of wavelength, 405 nm, is also used but the low intensity of reflected maxima prevents photography.

Le colonne d'eau
En tombant, une goutte d'eau augmente sa vitesse jusqu'à atteindre une vitesse suffisante pour pénétrer une surface aqueuse en fin de chute. Lors de ce contact, la goutte s'enfonce dans la surface, créant ainsi un cratère à la surface de l'eau. La formation du cratère cause une variation de la tension superficielle du liquide permettant ainsi, pour contrebalancer ce déséquilibre, la formation d'une colonne d'eau. Les molécules d'eau réagissent donc en vertu de la troisième loi de Newton stipulant qu'à toute action correspond une réaction de même grandeur et de direction opposée. La colonne d'eau s'élève alors au-dessus du liquide à une vitesse supérieure à la vitesse de chute de l'eau. En remontant, des gouttelettes finissent par se détachant occasionnant la répétition de ce phénomème jusqu'à ce que les gouttelettes se détachant soient assez petites pour pénétrer la surface aqueuse sans créer un nouveau cratère. Cependant, les colonnes secondaires issues de ce phénomène sont beaucoup plus petites et moins visibles à l'oeil. À la longue, le phénomène s'atténue puique l'énergie nécessaire pour faire remonter la colonne d'eau est transmise au liquide, entre autres, par la formation d'une onde sur l'eau.

Amber Amperage
This is a photograph of a wooden stick conducting electricity. In order to induce a spark from the step-up transformer, one must either: i) decrease the distance between the two electrodes, ii) increase the voltage, or iii) let the voltage build up so that the potential difference becomes so great that the electrons are forced to utilize the air as a pathway to the other electrode. Electrons always seek the easiest path to complete a circuit or reach the ground. In this case, despite an insulator blocking them, the electrons have still found a path from one electrode to the other. Electrons were stripped from the atoms in the wooden stick to create a current and complete the circuit, thus conducting electricity. Lightning striking a telephone pole or tree would be another example of electrons seeking the path of least resistance to the ground. Due to a large build up of energy, lightning will strike the wooden telephone pole or tree even though it is an insulator, in order to get to the ground. Electrons are torn out of the orbits of the atoms of the telephone pole or tree and create a current that reaches the ground.

Magnetic Fields
This picture was taken when two magnets were placed beneath a white sheet of paper before sprinkling iron metal filings on top. The iron filings automatically aligned themselves along the field lines that connect the magnet's North and South poles. Since Iron is a ferromagnetic element, these types of elements have interactions between electrons, and this tends to line up their magnetic movements with their neighbour's, as the iron filings did around the magnet. This is how the iron filings showed the magnetic fields of the magnets.

Star Light, star bright, are you a fan of Coherent Light?
Lasers are sources of coherent light – all of the light waves are aligned with each other, therefore producing a stronger and more concentrated beam. Unlike "normal" white light, which spreads out in all directions, laser beams will continue to travel in straight lines until they collide with another object or particle. In general, there are not enough particles present in air to reflect laser light. However, when a substance such as chalk dust is added to the environment, the light waves bounce off of the tiny powder particles, reflecting them in multiple directions. Our eyes can then perceive the light. My goal with this picture was to create some kind of geometric shape by reflecting a single laser beam off of multiple mirrors. Setting up the mirrors was definitely the trickiest part, because the angles of reflection all depend on one another – moving one mirror changes the entire shape! The wide background glow behind the beams was originally unintended, but ended up coming from the camera's flash reflecting off of the copious amounts of chalk dust used.

Glass Fireworks
This photo was created by using a standard drinking glass and a firework sparkler. Three components are needed for the sparks to occur. Aluminum, which acts as a metallic, fuel to create the sparks:. Sulphur, which acts as an additional fuel to control the burning speed, and Potassium Nitrate: which acts as the oxidizer in the combustion process. The sparks produced are a result of the Aluminum flakes heating up until they begin to glimmer and burn. Photons are emitted as the electrons in the Aluminum reach a higher state of energy (Emission), which are then grounded. This causes the firework effect Since the light sources are purely photons by the time they leave the bind of the sparkler: they follow the law of reflection. The incident rays are shot from the sparkler, and then onto the inside of the glass where they are reflected secularly There were many reflections within the glass, causing the light to appear more channelled and brighter. Thales of Miletus and Leibniz were the first philosophers/scientists to discover this phenomenon. Samuel wall was the first to perform a spark experiment with amber and cloth, proving that lightning and electricity are equivalent. Light produced by chemical reactions (such as in this picture) can be used for a type of spectroscopy called "Spark Emission Spectroscopy". This method uses a high pulse energy laser to excite atoms in a sample: which in turn produces sparks.

This picture was taken when a negatively charged comb is placed near a stream of water, the stream of water bends without the comb actually touching it. When we charge the comb, it acquires extra electrons and becomes negatively charged. Since water doesn't have an electrical charge, and is polar meaning it has more electrons on one side than the other. The comb helps produce a charge in the water. When the negatively charged comb is placed near the water, it causes the water molecules to rearrange. The electrons in the water are repelled while the protons are attracted to the comb. This causes the stream of water to bend. It is also called "Polarization".

Interference of Water Waves
A 7.2 megapixels, Sony Cyber-shot camera was used to capture the interference pattern. Two electrical toothbrushes were used to create waves in the water. Both of the brushes in this photo had the same speed and thus the same frequency. This photograph shows how waves produced from two sources interact to produce wave patterns. Interaction of waves results in superposition of waves. According to this principle, when a crest meets another crest it creates a supercrest and when a trough meets another trough it creates a supertrough. This is known as constructive interference and produces a resultant wave of greater amplitude. Interaction between a crest and trough produces a node, resulting in a wave of lower amplitude which is known as destructive interference. The reflection of the toothbrushes can also be seen along with the wave patterns in this photo.

Aurore boréale
Lors de périodes d'activité intense à la surface de notre Soleil, il y a éjection de protons et d'électrons. Si ce plasma a suffisamment d'énergie, il peut se libérer de la surface solaire et se diriger vers les planètes. Ce vent de particules, étant chargé électriquement, se fait dévier par le champ magnétique de la magnétosphère terrestre. Ce vent a aussi la capacité de déformer la magnétosphère. Les particules qui rejoindront l'atmosphère terrestre le feront principalement là où les lignes de champ magnétique seront plus ou moins perpendiculaires au sol, soit près des zones polaires. Quand ces particules à haute énergie entrent en collision avec l'oxygène et l'azote de notre atmosphère, ces molécules se font exciter, puis elles émettent des photons de différentes couleurs selon l'énergie correspondante. Les aurores boréales sont donc observables surtout aux hautes latitudes, par contre, quand l'activité solaire est plus grande, des aurores peuvent être observées à des latitudes moyennes. C'est le cas de l'aurore capturée sur cette photo, prise à St-Clet, Québec, situé à une latitude de +45°20'. Les étoiles en arrière-plan paraissent comme des petits traits à cause de la rotation de la Terre pendant la période d'exposition de 61 secondes.

A rusted bridge bisects a barren field. It is both a symbol of mankind's mastery of the laws governing our physical universe, and at the same time, a sobering reminder that nothing lasts forever. People have been perfecting the engineering of bridges since the early days of Neolithic tree trunk overpasses (simple beam bridges) through the stone arch bridges invented by the ancient Greeks, to the modern day wrought iron and steel mega structures (cantilever, cable-stayed, and truss bridges).
This example of a truss bridge crosses the Don River in North Toronto. Truss bridges are typically made of numerous connected straight elements, capable of withstanding stress from both tension and compression. The myriad aesthetically pleasing triangles actually dissipate vertical forces laterally, and increase the bridge's structural integrity. "Statics" is the branch of physics which concerns itself with the analysis of the bridge structure and function. Made from a frame of reinforced steal beams and concrete, this bridge was designed to last about 75 years. As seen in the photograph, numerous rusty patches evince the toll of time and weather on this soon-to-be-retired structure.

Shiny Bubbles
Have you ever wondered how a bubble produces spectral colors? This phenomenon of observing different colors also takes place when gasoline is spilled onto the water.
This photo was captured using a Nikon S51 8.1 Megapixels camera. It required many trials to achieve the picture without popping the bubbles. The materials needed to create "Shiny Bubbles," are soap, water, oil, a straw and a small container. Soap, water and oil were mixed together and a small amount of it was placed on the countertop. Now take your time, use a straw and start inflating the bubbles one at a time, inside the other. When the light rays strike the upper and lower surface of the thin soap film, some of the lights are refracted, others reflected. This light rays travel in different paths. Depends on their phase difference, in some areas, we can see constructive or destructive interference. Each bubble displays the same image of spectral colors; each color of the spectrum is composed of different wavelengths.

The Plunge of a Water Droplet: Water Waves
In this photograph a droplet of water is caught as it plunges into the water and creates an ongoing pattern of waves. The droplet of water was dropped with enough energy that it was able to rebound and send the droplet back up. This disturbance triggered the movement of the water. The droplet of water acts as a disturbance; as soon as it hits the water it causes the water to spread out in an ongoing pattern of waves, consisting of crests and troughs. Crests move in succession and are separated by roughs, which also move in succession. The elevated waves are known as crests and the areas of depression are the troughs. This creates the alternating pattern of crests and troughs. The light displays a reflection of the bowl onto the spherical shape of the water droplet. This picture represents a quite simple yet an astonishing aspect of physics; the intricate motion of water waves are caused by a single disturbance. The model of the camera used was a Canon PowerShot A95. The dimensions of the photograph are 2592 by 1944 and this photograph was taken on December 1, 2006 at 8:41 p.m. This picture was taken with a flash and was taken using the micro function, which allows the camera to capture details with accuracy and precision.

Arizona's Immigrant Law Sparks A Protest At Minute Maid
Protesting at an Astros game, but somehow not about beer prices
Photos by Liana Lopez
About 60 demonstrators were outside Minute Maid Park last night protesting the Arizona Diamondbacks in response to the state's newly passed SB 1070 anti-immigrant law.
As baseball fans made their way into the stadium, several stopped to find out exactly what was going on and were surprised when they found out.
"I didn't realize the protest was going on. Had I known, I would not have bought tickets. I support immigration reform and I'm against the new Arizona law, but I'm going to the game to support our Astros tonight," Martha Rodriguez said.
The protest had everyone talking about the immigration issue, though. There were counter-protesters (about 20) that showed up as well.

What was unusual about this protest is that normally the police make sure to keep the opposing groups separated, but not yesterday. Although there were plenty of cops around, they allowed both groups to protest on the same sidewalk right next to each other.
At least it was peaceful.
The other side was there, too

I'll be in San Diego Sept. 9 - 16 and I'm looking for a few things...
1. Homeopathic Pharmacy or any place I can get homeopathic remedies.
2. "Crunchy" clothes store, not expensive!
I'm travelling with my 6yo boy so we'll be going to Sea World, Zoo, Safari and Legoland. I don't think I will have any energy left to do anything else but, just in case, what else can you throw at me? We'll be staying at the motel 6 on Pacific Hwy.
Thank you very very much!
Thank you for your reply! I think I'll do great with Sprouts!
And no, by crunchy I mean just laid back, maybe Indian-type, hippie-style, etc...

LM Otero, Associated Press
NEW YORK — J.C. Penney is reporting a small profit in the fourth quarter, but the beleaguered retailer suffered a revenue shortfall as it struggles to win back shoppers.
The retailer, based in Plano, Texas, says that it earned $35 million, or 11 cents per share, in the three-month period ended Feb. 1. That compares with a massive loss of $552 million, or $2.51 per share, in the year-ago period.
Revenue slipped 2.6 percent to $3.78 billion.
Excluding a tax benefit and other items, Penney had a loss of $206 million, or 68 cents per share, in the quarter.
Analysts had expected a loss of 81 cents on revenue of $3.84 billion.
Revenue at stores opened at least a year was up 2 percent.

An aimless 20-year-old with a penchant for following the rules receives a mysterious set of instructions that lead him down a path from which he may never return in director Géla Babluani's tense tale of death and chance. Sébastien has come into possession of a train ticket and a mysterious set of instructions. Though he is unsure of exactly what fate awaits him when he arrives at his destination, one thing is certain: these items were most certainly not meant for him. Bored by his uneventful existence and hungering for something new, Sébastien boards the outbound train and takes his first bold steps into an unknown future. But the world can be a cruel and unforgiving place filled with unfeeling men to whom human life means little more than a lost wager, and if Sébastien is to make it through his harrowing journey alive he must keep his wits about him and pray that luck is on his side.

Tzameti is a un-unique film that screams debut feature, and yet it is still a great deal entertaining. The premise, where an innocent is submerged into mystery, darkness, and danger, and is changed in the end, is hardly a unique setup and in most cases would be a mere skeleton to hang superb performances upon as the real meat of the film. 13 doesn't do that, as the acting is well above exaggerated, and the film stumbles a bit for it. Still, the premise is catching enough to keep you watching to see where it inevitably leads. Unfortunately, the final climax of the film seems very very forced, or intentionally inserted for the sake of tragedy, and totally unnecessary. This actually would have worked overall more as a novel than as a screenplay for a film, but it isn't bad, it just simply isn't great either.
"13 Tzameti" follows Sebastien -played capably by George Babluani- as he struggles to find work in a small town. He gets a job roofing the house of a drug addict who has the misfortune of overdosing before Sebastien can finish, and subsequently paid. Luckily for Sebastien, before the drug addict dies he overhears him talking about a big money making job opportunity on the horizon. Sebastien comes into possession of the train ticket needed to get to the job, and decides to go down the rabbit hole. Unfortunately for Sebastien, he doesn't find a Wonderland, in fact quite the opposite. Before he knows what's going on he's in way over his head in a sinister world that he could never have known existed. A French language film shot entirely in black and white, "13 Tzameti" is a skillfully captured film that is devoted to telling its twisted story. Director Gela Babluani "brother to star George" and cinematographer Tariel Meliava do not try to do too much with the camera, and succeed at developing extreme tension on screen without having gallons of blood or using other oft used thriller/horror movie surprises. It is pragmatic storytelling all the way here, and it is very effective. In fact, the audience feels that it is part of the story as details are revealed to us at the same time as Sebastien. As a result, "13 Tzameti" frequently has the look and feel of a documentary because of this technique. The acting in "13 Tzameti" is extremely consistent, and sometimes very good indeed. George Babluani does a fine job as Sebastien while Philippe Passon delivers a very good "if abbreviated" performance as the drug addict whose death perpetuates the entire story. Pascal Bongard and Aurelien Recoing also give entertaining performances during the meat of the film. 13 Tzameti is a simple, but highly effective thriller that is a fine debut from director Gela Babluani. I look forward to watching more films from this clearly talented director.

CAMBRIDGE, England, March 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Today, cellular phones are linearly connecting people to other people and devices. Machine to machine automation with wireless sensors is being deployed but usually in islands of disparate systems. The Internet of Things will both attempt to connect these existing systems and then augment that by connecting more things, thanks to wireless sensor networks (WSN) and other technologies, such as passive RFID.
But where and how, in the scale of hype to reality, can the Internet of Things profit suppliers and users today? What are the pragmatic steps needed to enable the Internet of Things and widespread deployment of wireless sensor networks that are feasible and based on an ROI and not the hope someone else will pay for this?
These are the questions addressed by the IDTechEx event "Internet of Things & WSN Europe" held in Berlin, Germany on 1-2 April 2014 - http://www.IDTechEx.com/IoTeurope. The event addresses the business models, case studies, actions, profitability and missing gaps.
There will be examples within key market verticals and appraisal of the new enabling technologies becoming available, such as printed electronics. It will help you assess your business strategy and timing, the technical, consumer and governmental challenges, new business models and opportunities.
Attendees will learn the latest progress from companies such as IBM, Volvo, Disney, Intel, Deutsche Telekom, CSICO, ABB, NEC, Bosch, Gemalto, ARM and many more. For the full agenda, see http://www.IDTechEx.com/IoTeurope/Agenda

Felix on schedule for spring
But elbow issue looms over contract extension
Felix Hernandez is expected to be on the field with his teammates this week when the Mariners open spring training.
An elbow issue that reportedly surfaced last week when Hernandez took a physical has put off any announcement of a contract extension for the Mariners ace while both sides figure out where to go from here. Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik declined to comment when asked Sunday about Hernandez having possibly failed his physical, but said the pitcher will be at the team's Peoria, Ariz., training facility on Tuesday as scheduled.
"Oh yeah, he'll be there," Zduriencik said.
Many teams open camp today.
Zduriencik added that there is nothing medically preventing Hernandez from taking part in on-field workouts with his teammates. He noted that pitchers and catchers are due to take physicals on Tuesday, then have their first workout on Wednesday and that Hernandez would be going along with the group as usual.
As for the state of Hernandez's elbow, Zduriencik would not comment further.
"I'm just not going to comment on that while negotiations are ongoing," Zduriencik said. "That's our policy. We don't comment on any of that stuff."
Rumors about a problem with Hernandez's physical began percolating on Saturday morning, after the Mariners failed to officially announce a contract extension that had been agreed to two days earlier.
Hernandez had also let it be known Friday that he was pulling out of the World Baseball Classic for what he said were family reasons, not a medical issue.
Hernandez's agent declined to return calls or text messages on Saturday asking whether the pitcher had failed his physical. Then, on Sunday, ESPN columnist Buster Olney quoted a source saying that concerns over Hernandez's elbow could affect the extension talks.
Bob Nightengale of USA Today – who had broken the initial news Thursday about the extension – followed Sunday by saying the pitcher had been made aware there was a problem with his elbow discovered during the physical. Nightengale later wrote that both sides are trying to work beyond the elbow issue and eventually reach a deal.
That Zduriencik confirmed that extension talks are still ongoing in good news for fans worried that Hernandez might have an immediate injury that could affect his 2013 season. Instead, this would appear to be a case where the team is worried about a potential problem that could flare up down the road.
Teams can include specific contract language to protect them in case a medical condition flares up in the middle of a long-term contract. That was the case when the New York Yankees and CC Sabathia agreed to a long-term extension despite concerns about the pitcher's knee.
Hernandez missed a month of action early in the 2007 season after experiencing soreness in his elbow during a start against the Minnesota Twins. He also failed to win any of his final six starts last season and went from being a front-runner for the Cy Young Award to finishing fourth in the voting.
