Thank you to everyone who participated in our summer reading program, and congratulations to the following grand prize winners from our children's program:
We did it!! Thank you to all of our fantastic summer readers for helping us reach our gold medal level of 25,000 hours of reading! Because of your efforts and the generosity of Vanderloop Shoes and FOLKS, we will be giving $1000 to Special Olympics! How awesome!
Thank you, Summer Library Program Readers, for helping us reach the silver medal level of 20,000 hours of reading--which means a $600 donation to Special Olympics! The gold medal level is 25,000 hours for a $1000 donation, and with your help we can reach that by our deadline of July 29. Thank you to our matching sponsors, Vanderloop Shoes and FOLKS, for generously supporting our reading for charity initiative.
Thank you, Summer Library Program Readers, for helping us reach the bronze medal level of 15,000 hours of reading--which means a $300 donation to Special Olympics! The silver medal level is 20,000 hours, and with your help we can reach that soon for a $600 donation. We are still striving for the gold medal level of 25,000 hours by July 29 to give $1000, so keep on reading!
It is time for another fun summer of reading! This year's theme is On Your Mark, Get Set--Read! The focus is on sports, health, and fitness--perfect for the upcoming Summer Olympics. Registration begins on May 31, so stop by either location to pick up your first Olympic card. The program will run June 6-July 29 for eight weeks of reading, and each weekly card will feature a different Olympic event. Medal in reading by reading/being read to for a minimum of two hours each week. Readers receive a prize when they complete cards 2, 4, 6, and 8, and completing an odd-numbered card earns an entry into our grand prize drawing.
The children's program is for kids ages 3 through entering grade 5. The teen program is for students in grades 6-12, and there is also an adult program for ages 18+, so the whole family can participate.
Each hour you read will help raise money for Special Olympics. Vanderloop Shoes and FOLKS are matching donors, so we will donate more money the more you read. The goal is to have kids, teens, and adults reach 25,000 hours of reading this summer which will earn $1000 for Special Olympics. We need to reach 15,000 hours to give $300 and 20,000 hours to give $600. Let's go for the gold and reach that top mark for the highest donation!
Do you have books in great condition that need a new home? The youth department is in search of "like new" children and teen books to use as prizes for our summer reading program.
Please keep in mind that we do not accept the following:
Please let a staffer know when you drop off your donations that the books are for the summer reading program. You may fill out a "Waive of Ownership" form for your tax purposes if you wish. Some donated items may be placed in our book sale if the book doesn't fit the criteria for a reading prize; you will still be benefiting the library.
Thank you for helping our young readers!
The library recently received two generous grants to support STEAM programming. STEAM is an acronym for science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics. Besides providing a wide selection of reading materials for informational and leisure reading, the library also strives to support life-long learning. One of the best ways to help children learn is to let them play and explore, so the grant money was dedicated to purchasing Legos, Magna Tiles, Snap Circuits, brush bots, and Build-a-Road sets. Watch for Lego and creative play times as part of our regular programming soon.
We are very grateful to our sponsors for their generous gifts! The Great Wisconsin Cheese Festival (Cheesfest) funds were awarded to the Little Chute Library, and the U.S Venture/Schmidt Family Foundation funds will benefit the Kimberly Library. Thank you to both for helping the library go full STEAM ahead.
January often feels bitter cold, dark, and LONG, but we have just the ticket to help the month pass quickly--a winter reading program! Stop by the library to pick up your BINGO card featuring those lovable minions. Complete reading activities to get BINGO, then bring your card in to the library to get a small prize and an entry into the grand prize drawing. It's easy and lots of fun to participate. This program is for all ages, so the whole family can participate. Sign up soon because it would be "despicable" if you didn't.
Where the Wild Things Are is a blog for kids & families. Youth Services Librarian, Ann Hardginski, will share info about great books for kids & parents, cool websites, and other info related to youth services at the library. If you have topics you'd like to see covered or questions Ms. Ann could answer in her blog posts, please send them to ahardgin [at] mail [dot] owls [dot] lib [dot] wi [dot] us (subject: Question%20from%20Where%20the%20Wild%20Things%20Are%20Blog) . We hope you'll add your comments to the posts here, so we can all learn and grow with each other!

A dispute over the safety of shipping lithium batteries is brewing between the U.S. and some trade partners.
The Obama administration wants to treat the batteries as hazardous cargo. If they catch fire, lithium batteries burn hot and the fire is hard to put out.
Airline pilot unions say they want want additional safety precautions.
But other major countries worry about increased shipping costs and disruptions in the flow of some electronics like cell phones and laptops.
Diplomatic and industry officials say the European Union, China, Japan, South Korea and Israel have lobbied against the proposal.

Hello ladies. Just de-lurking to ask a question of the acupuncture pros on here.
DH and I have our first consult/appt on Saturday. I haven't gotten temp confirmation but I've had 3 days +opk and horrible O pain last night so should be today.
Anyways my question is is it good to start right after O. I have noticed that a lot of ladies go during AF or while waiting to O but I want to make sure that it won't mess anything up should I be so lucky to catch the egg.
Thanks in advance and many ((hugs))

Git er done, boys!
$32.45 x 1.25 = 40.56. It's getting very close to parity here, and BRY was trading near this price quite recently. It would not surprise me to see LNCO pop another couple of bucks this week. No guarantees, of course.
Would you explain the terms proposed for the merger? Does BRY get 1.25 shares of LNCO for 1 share of BRY? If so, why is the value of BRY so much higher than $37.63? I obviously do not understand and need an explanation. Thanks in advance.
Yes, that is the terms. No worries - LNCO will be $36 soon enough

Alex interviewed Shonda Schilling about her new book, "The Best Kind of Different: Our Family's Journey with Asperger's Syndrome." Jack talked with David Geslak about physical fitness and autism.

Autism Talk TV Ep. 14 – Be Different by John Elder Robison
This post is by Alex Plank
In the latest installment of Autism Talk TV, Alex, Jack, and Kirsten talk about John Robison's new book, Be Different: Adventures of a Free Range Aspergian. Be Different is must-read and I highly recomend ordering it on Amazon. John's first book, an autobiography entitled Look Me in the Eye: My life with Asperger's was an overnight success, landing itself on the New York Times bestseller list.
Unlike Look Me in the Eye, Be Different is a how-to guide aimed at teachers, parents, professionals, and individuals on the spectrum. However, you won't be disapointed if you are hoping to read more of John's firsthand accounts that made up the entirety of Look Me in the Eye as John uses his famous stories to illustrate points in Be Different.

Autism Talk TV – Episode 13
This is a guest post by Alex Plank, an autistic adult who founded the online community Wrong Planet. Alex is a graduate of George Mason University.
Autism Talk TV is finally back from our extended holiday hiatus. This week we're interviewing Bud Fraze, president of Playability Toys. We met Bud at the ASA conference in Dallas and instantly hit it off.
Bud shows us various toys he's created for children with special needs. You'll get to learn about a Buddy Dog, a Rib-it-Ball, and a Brain Gear. Playability Toys are designed to stimulate an autistic child's sensory needs.
We originally wanted to include Bud's interview in our famous toy episode, but decided he deserved his own show. Aspergian girl and production assistant Kirsten Lindsmith is guest hosting this episode with me. You may remember her from the original toy episode.

Autism Talk TV – Episode 12
This is a guest post by Alex Plank, an autistic adult who founded the online community Wrong Planet. Alex is a graduate of George Mason University.
Thanks for tuning in to the latest episode of Autism Talk in which we interview Elaine Hall, the founder of The Miracle Project in Los Angeles. Elaine worked in the film industry until she adopted an autistic son and decided to start the Miracle Project, a successful program in which autistic children sing and act and dance in order to promote learning and social interaction.
The Miracle Project is hosting a cruise for autistic children in June of 2011 which features music drama and dance. Stephen Shore will be on the boat teaching music to children.
Elaine and The Miracle Project were featured in the HBO documentary "Autism The Musical" and wrote a book about raising her autistic son entitled "now i see the moon." Elaine generously granted us an interview in which she talks about her experience raising her deeply autistic son. In addition, Elaine explains The Miracle Project and her views about working with autistic children.

Autism Talk TV – Episode 10
This is a guest post by Alex Plank, an autistic adult who founded the online community Wrong Planet. Alex is a graduate of George Mason University.
In this 18 minute episode of Autism Talk TV I sit down with Lindsay Oberman at Harvard Medical School's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center to talk about TMS, a technology that allows researchers to use magnets to affect the brains of individuals with autism. First we have an interview with Lindsay and then you can watch me undergoing TMS.
Lindsay discusses the details of TMS and how it relates to autism. She has been interested in autism since she was a graduate student and clearly has a passion for finding out how autistic brains differ from neurotypical ones.
I was surprised that the TMS researchers were able to use a magnet to move my hand and individual fingers. The region they affected on me was the motor cortex which governs movement. The idea that you can use a magnet to make changes to the brain sounds like science fiction, but it isn't fiction at all.
Lindsay is close to conclusively figuring out exactly how autistic brains differ from neurotypical brains. There is great potential for TMS being used as a diagnostic tool as well as a theraputic tool. I think you will be fascinated by this episode of Autism Talk TV.

Customer (N Levy)04/27/2011 09:45 PM
I am extremely disappointed with the Leapster Explorer we recently purchased for our child. The design of the product is nice and the game we purchased, Mr. Pencil, is fine, the disturbing thing about the Explorer is the blatant marketing to children. Every time my child turns it on it begs him to connect to the Internet to play more games. The movie demos and game previews are another pathetic attempt to market to my child. I purchased a game for 4-7 year olds so why are you marketing an X-Men game that is for 5 years old and up?
Also take note, I purchased "*Mr Pencil*" for the purpose of not exposing my child to your Disney/Pixar takeover of life. I would like a complete refund including shipping as I will have to mail the product to you because we live overseas. Or if you can remove the advertising or send me an older Leapster that was manufactured before you lost your conscience and decided to market directly to children that would also be acceptable.
If you would like me to expound on why your level of marketing is more disturbing than brightly colored cereal boxes or Playmobile pamphlets I would be happy to, but I'm sure your well paid marketing team has already discussed this disturbing trend and is well aware of their folly. I can be contacted at this email or by telephone. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
Response (Gina Paola L.)04/28/2011 02:58 PM
We are very sorry for all of the inconvenience this may have caused you.
Our next update to the LeapFrog Connect application is now scheduled for May. Once the Explorer is connected after that update, there will be a new option on the handheld to turn off trailers and demos.
We hope you will accept our sincere apologies for any difficulty that you have encountered in dealing with our company. Please know that we have carefully read all of your comments and take them seriously. We will do our best to make as many improvements as we can so that you, our customer, will have a positive experience in all future dealings with LeapFrog.
Customer (N Levy)05/02/2011 06:59 AM
This is not an appropriate resolution because your product still tells my child to connect to the Internet whenever he is viewing a certain pages. I don't want the constant marketing and not so subliminal messages to be a part of my child's learning experiences. I would like an older version of your product or a complete refund. Let's resolve this promptly.
Response (Gina Paola L.)05/03/2011 01:14 PM
Since the Leapster Explorer is a connected product, it will require the user to connect it to the computer to redeem the tokens your child has earned when playing games. The tokens can be used to download micromods that serves as additional features for your child's games. You can also use these tokens to purchase treats for the pets on the handheld.
You may also need to connect your device to view the play details of your child.
For the inconvenience, we would like to give you this 15% discount code that you can use on your purchases online at www.leapfrog.com. The code is 15LEAPFCS and it is for one time use only. The code is valid until May 31, 2011.
We can also push two Leaplet apps on your device for the inconvenience. You may just reply back with the titles of the Leaplet apps of your choice.
We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any further questions, please let us know.

I understand that the handheld is a "connected product." However I was not aware of the constant pressure to connect to the Internet. This is not acceptable. It is one thing to have a product which is Internet compatible or can be enhanced through the Internet, it is a completely separate issue to pressure five year old to go on the Internet. He never heard of the Internet before your product. Why would a five year old need Internet access? Maybe he needs an IPad too.
There are only two ways to resolve this. Either you provide me with an older version of the handheld, which is how I became acquainted with your product or you give me a full refund plus shipping. More "Leaplet apps" will not take away the annoying features of your product so I don't understand your logic as to how this would be an acceptable resolution.
Thank you, Jessica

Have you come up with a workable solution?
Leapfrog (Lu-Ann) to NLevy May 13
We apologize for any inconvenience.
If you want a refund for the Leapster Explorer, you will need to return it to the place of purchase. We can only process a refund if it was ordered from our online store (www.leapfrog.com) and should be within the 90 days from the date it was purchased.
Regrettably, we are unable to process a different item for replacement.
Should you need further assistance, please let us know.
NLevy to Leapfrog May 15
This is completely unacceptable. The place it was purchased from ToysRUS Hong Kong has a fourteen day return policy. The handheld was purchased for my child from there and brought back from my husband from overseas. Obviously you can see the problem. A company with any integrity would understand the dilemma here and try to satisfy the customer. You are marketing to children at every possibility so you can satisfy your bottom line. I am trying to raise an intelligent child without subjecting him to the disgusting culture of consumerism that you are pushing on children as young as three. Shame on Leapster. Please issue a refund or come up with another way to satisfy this problem. I would hate to have to make a bigger deal out of this then necessary.
Please forward this to someone who is capable of making decisions, not just a customer service rep who is following protocol.
Thank you for your prompt response, Jessica
Leapfrog to NLevy
We are unable to process a refund if the item was not purchased from our online store. You may provide us your mailing address and we will try to check if what we can do to resolve this issue.
Thank you.

Before I send my mailing address I would like to know what you are sending. A check with the amount I've spent on your product would be appropriate.
Response (Lu-Ann D)05/20/2011 12:44 PM
We apologize for any inconvenience.
Unfortunately, we are unable to send you a refund check. If you have receipt and packaging, please contact a local Toys R Us store in your area.
Thank you.
NLevy to Leapfrom 5/21
If you read my initial response you would see that I am unable to return the item because it was purchased at a ToysRUS with a 14 day return policy. As this was a birthday gift, it was not opened within the fourteen days.
Your company CAN accept a return of the product your company has manufactured but your company CHOOSES not to.
If you are unwilling to offer a basic service that any other respectable company would offer, I will take this to the next level. You may not be willing to return my $100 plus dollars (Explorer, games, carrying pack) but I will make sure that other parents are cognizant (think Facebook, Twitter, Ripoff.com, YouTube, etc.), of the brainwashing attempts employed by Leapster and your poor customer service.
Shame on Leapster. You had an easy opportunity to correct this. I hate to waste my time on this. Please don't underestimate a mother's desire to provide her child with what is best for them and not be swindled in the process.
Please forward this to someone who is capable of making decisions, not just a customer service rep who is following protocol.
Thank you for your prompt response, Jessica S

The last acceptable option before I waste my precious time on advertising the evils of Leap Frog is to exchange my brand new barely used Leapster Explorer for one of your products that does not need to attach to the internet to function at full capacity and does not contain inappropriate demos. I'm sure you can get a tax deduction for donating it to charity.
If you give me an address I will be happy to mail it to you, along with a copy of my receipt so you can see the date of purchase and provide me with one of your products that is more child appropriate, (sans internet, violent video demos) that is of a compareable price.
If you choose not to, unfortunately I will have no choice but to "open up a can of worms." The internet makes it so easy to communicate with a wide audience. Please do the honorable thing.
If this works for you, please provide me with a shipping address. I will even absorb the costs of shipping since it will surely save me time. I'd rather not have to set up some pathetic Facebook page or make a YouTube video called "Shame on Leapster" and hope it goes viral.

Here is my ranking for the Giants 2011 Prospects. Please leave a comment, a question about a prospect or your own list.
1. Brandon Belt 1B/OF
2010 Stats(A+/AA/AAA) .353/.455/.620, 23 Hr, 112 Rbi
If Belt can prove his first minor league season was not a fluke, he's one of the ELITE prospects in all of baseball. Expect him to get the Buster Posey treatment, starting in AAA and getting a call up in the summer.
2. Zach Wheeler SP
2010 Stats(A-) 3-3, 3.99 ERA, 58.2 IP, 70 K, 38 BB
A young kid with a live arm, his peripherals looked great this year, but he needs to be more consistent this coming season to keep his front of the rotation potential. A torn fingernail sidelined him for a few weeks, but assuming he stays healthy, expect a huge season for Wheeler at San Jose for the Giants High A team.
3. Gary Brown CF
The Giants first draft choice in this year's draft instantly became our fastest prospect and best defensive outfielder. He logged a little playing time at the end of the year but his stats were forgettable. The book on Brown is that he rarely walks, but also rarely strikes out. Expect to see him in San Jose this year where I assume he'll put up some huge numbers(high batting average and tons of stolen bases).
4. Thomas Neal OF
2010 Stats (AA) .291/.359/.440 12 Hr, 69 Rbi
After a breakout 2009 season at San Jose Neal took a step back at AA Richmond. The good sign is that he got better as the year went on and finished with decent numbers. Look for Neal to get back on track and put up some big numbers at AAA Fresno this year and possibly get a call up. I don't expect Neal to be a star, but can easily see him being a non-star regular for the Giants.
5. Francisco Peguero CF
2010 Stats(A+) .329/.358/.488 10 Hr, 77Rbi, 40 Sb
Peguero has a great bat and great speed, but needs to walk more to sustain his numbers at higher levels. He needs to work on base stealing as he was caught 22 times this past year. He's a high energy player with great defense and a plus-plus arm. Expect him to start the year at AA Richmond where we'll find out if his numbers are sustainable.
prospects 6-10 coming soon!!!

Sorry but it has been long time since I did this, and one tend to forget!
I want to change a small fault in the top bar of Internet Explorer/Mozila Fire Fox, where it shows the name of the site etc.
Like on my own site: http://www.mhoey.eu where it states: Around the World Jorney - mhoey.eu - Windows Internet Explorer which should have been Journey!
Can anybody tell me which file I should download and correct with my FTP Commander?
And what is this bar called, navigation bar or?
Thanks for your help
Kind regards

...hoping you might like to have a little look at my theme and see what you think. It's supposed to look like the front page of a tabloid newspaper, like they have in Britain.
it's got the red banner across the top,
an updating date,
and the lead headline also gets a bigger font than all the others (in firefox and IE7+)
it's got a nice liquid design as well, so it stretches with the browser window.
you can find it at the London Drummerboy blog

I've had the need for a random-thingy that could output random images, random quotes and the like.
Therefore, I've created a small plugin called randomize - you can find it at http://linux.linux.dk/projects/randomize/
I use it on a few sites, fx. for changing the banner-image on blogs, to give a dynamic-effect and for fetching random quotes.
Anyway, the code is crap and the site above is slow - but if you can use the plugin for anything, please go ahead...

Wisconsin Badgers fans dig deep for dream trips to Final Four
When Paula McAllister's husband and son went to the Super Bowl to watch the Packers win the Lombardi Trophy a few years ago, she stayed home.
Now the Badgers are heading to the Final Four, and Paula McAllister is definitely not staying home. Her husband is.
"This is the first time I've ever done anything this huge," said Paula McAllister, who is flying to Texas on Friday with her daughter, Meghan Teigen, a Madison attorney.
Her son Ryan McAllister, an accountant in Chicago, is meeting them in Texas. The three scored tickets to Saturday's games as well as Monday's final.
The McAllister family is part of the Badger diaspora traveling from all compass points to descend on Texas, clad in cardinal red clothing and hats, clutching "W" emblazoned purses and pennants and hoping they'll be in the house to see the University of Wisconsin win the whole enchilada.
Mindful that it's been awhile since Wisconsin won the national championship — the same year Pearl Harbor was bombed by the Japanese — and 14 years since UW last played in the Final Four, quite a few Badger alums and fans are shelling out big bucks to see the game.
For the McAllister family, who managed to score $320 game tickets through the university, it's costing $700 per person for airfare, $200 for car rental and a couple grand for several nights hotel plus food and souvenirs in Dallas.
Paula McAllister grew up in Madison and both her children are alumni — Ryan graduated in 2001 and Meghan in 2004.
"It's really such a special opportunity. We're lucky to have it," said Paula McAllister, who stopped at Name of the Game at Mayfair to buy Badger T-shirts, a jacket and purse to take to the Final Four.
Before last Saturday's victory over Arizona, Kevin Sofen's friend was like — hey, if the Badgers win, want to go to Dallas? Sofen, 24, said sure. And that's how the 2012 UW alums made the decision to spend their hard-earned money. Before the game Sofen noticed Chicago-Dallas flights were selling for $400.
"When they won I was being doused with champagne at a bar and my friend raced to his computer and booked flights for $450. It was like 10 minutes after the game ended. Now they're up to $900," Sofen, who works for a water purification company in Chicago.
On Saturday he'll be clad in a red Badgers T-shirt and Wisconsin cowboy hat as well as the same Bucky Badger boxer shorts he happened to wear while watching the Badgers win the first three games in the tournament. To Sofen, that means his underwear is lucky.
The buddies will leave Chicago at 7 a.m., arrive in Dallas at 11:30 a.m., watch Saturday's game with $320 tickets they bought from the NCAA, stay at a friend's home Saturday night and fly home at 11 a.m. Sunday.
Neither can take off work on Monday to stay in Dallas. Sofen isn't sure how much cash he'll take for spending money but figures half his bankroll will be spent on beer.
"It's like with any sporting event, it's so hard to get to that point. You saw the Michigan game, sometimes it comes down to one shot. You can have the best team in the country, but there are so many variables that can go wrong — you never know when you can go back," Sofen said. "What better way than to spend money on traveling to the Final Four?"
Bonus for hometown fan
Jim Sauter, 41, doesn't have far to travel to the game. After earning a chemical engineering degree in 1994, Sauter remained in Wisconsin where both his sons were born but eventually moved to Texas. He lives just south of Fort Worth, so his commute to the game will take about an hour.
He's taking his sons, 17-year-old Cole and 15-year-old Austin, as well as his 64-year-old father, Larry, to the game.
When Sauter attended UW, he was such a sports nut he never missed a basketball or football game, even traveling to away games. He was in Pasadena, Calif., to see the Badgers win the 1994 and 1999 Rose Bowls.
And though he's far from the 608 area code, he continues to watch sports teams on the Big 10 Network. So, of course, he's going to the Final Four.
"Literally I was ready to go buy tickets the minute the game was over. I bought tickets within 10 minutes, as soon as my wife said I could spend the money," Sauter said.
John Fremstad, 48, grew up in Eau Claire and moved to Florida shortly after graduating from UW in 1987. He joked with a friend that if the University of Florida and Wisconsin ever made the Final Four they should take their 12-year-old sons. Fremstad and his friend coach their sons in a youth basketball league and they're hoping to see a Wisconsin-Florida final.
Fremstad didn't want to add up how much the trip is costing, but when pressed he figured it's around $2,500 per person. He waited until Monday — after he purchased game tickets — to tell his son Jagger that he wouldn't be able to play basketball this weekend but would be able to see basketball.
"He quickly figured it out. He couldn't believe it. He was like, 'You're kidding me,'" Fremstad said. "I said, 'We're actually going. Mom gave us the thumbs up.'"

I purchased about $800 worth of equipment that had some of the best stats you can get in the game, most of it was perfect IAS gear (increased attack speed).
About 3 days after I made this purchase, I logged into see that most of my gear I bought was changed and now worth less than I paid for it. My character was now useless and I am now the proud owner of $800 worth of useless equipment for my character.
No notice was given to me that these items would be changed days after I bought them. No email was sent to my account saying any changes were happening.
No compensation was given. Customer support for the game pretty much told me to go (((REDACTED FOUL LANGUAGE))) myself because I had clicked "I Agree" on their T.o.S. and E.u.L.a when I laughed the game. Apparently this long contact, which nobody reads, stats that they can change any item at any time without any notice.
Their box does not say you have to agree to these things when you buy it at the store. So you get home and are FORCED to sign these if you want to play. They have a ToS and EULA (terms of service / end user licensing agreement) that you are forced to agree to just to play, even if you already paid $60 for a game.
What players are doing is finding the best item stats that give the best possible damage for your character. Blizzard knows these item stats are valuable and people will pay Real money to get them, so their characters can beat the game. Once enough people have bought these items with these stats, they change the stats so they are not good anymore.. and now this leaves players looking for items with other stats to get the best damage.
This is fraud and a scam. They will keep changing items people already bought just so they have to go buy more items.
Do not play Diablo 3. You can not find good items on your own and the only way to win is to buy items from their Real Money Auction House. Then they will change those items and make them useless do you have to buy more.

All online computer games have terms of use these days. ALL OF THEM. Every single manufacturer will reserve the right to change items as they see fit. You should also go look and see if you own the items. Even though you paid real money for them, you do not own the items or your character. Blizzard does. Items that have changed have been for game balance. They want the game to be fair, they don't want things to be overpowered and unbalanced. Also, they did announce they were changing things. The patch notes for 1.03 have been up for several weeks. They detail in there that they are adjusting items, bosses, and difficulty of the game. Your items have been reduced in power, but so have many of the bosses and inferno mode has had a large nerf.
No ripoff here, there's no requirement to take part in the RMAH to play the game.

Never let down EXCEPT WHERE DID MY REVIEW GO???? I wanted my name in print (lol, the jerk)
Of all the apps for directions, especially since I can't drive on highways, MapQuest has always been 100% accurate. I don't have to wonder if I'm going the right way. And she tells me ahead of time, pet peeve is when someone (my a**bf) yells at me after I passed the street I knew nothing about. Deal breaker: I like her voice. She is very calm and guiding without being condescending. I'm gonna name her Quintessa! I like it, I just made that up!! Heehee! Wonder if I can delete this if I hit send?? Oh well, nothing but the truth, just a bit tipsy!! Yay!!!
Improved Mapquest
I had gotten away from using Mapquest for a long time. It had never really worked that well, and was not very detailed. My wife and I took a trip to the west coast, so I tried Mapquest again. To my surprise, I found it to be much improved and very useful. The app screwed up once when it took us to an "authorized personnel" entrance. We got directions from the security guard and found the correct entrance. Not sure how that happened, but it was the only time the app messed up. If you travel a lot, this is a very useful app.
Right address wrong place!
I thought I was pretty happy with MapQuest even though it took me twice to wrong place but at least it was in the same area and I was able to find the right place, till today... I even put the name of the place there and the address matched to where I was going... Well long story short it took me to opposite direction and I found myself an hour away from a place that was 30 min from my starting point!! Even the street name didn't match let along the number!!! Deleting this app from my phone!

CAN$126.13 back then (whatever "back then" was on this FBorFW strip) is how much now as well as compared to US currency?
Actually, John, you should have just handed over your wallet, period.
$126.13 "back then" (say, about 1984) would have been worth about $90US. Today $126.13 Canadian is be worth about $130US.
Typical child.
iomyaom, it was about 75 cents per dollar, so call it $95 or so. When I was a little kid, the canadian dollar was essentially the same value as ours and so the currencies went back and forth across the border. It wasn't unusual to run across Canadian money while shopping.
Typical girl response in panel #2 and the last. Two phases of female psyche.
Ain't it the truth.
Make up your mind, Lizzie!!
Lynn's Notes:
Having a syndicated comic strip into which I could pour my frustration saved my sanity. In fact, this was a common occurrence with my kids — this simple situation was enough to drive a parent crazy. I got a huge amount of satisfaction from drawing screaming kids with their mouths wide open and tears flying from their eyes. Exaggeration is the key to making art come to life; to be able to turn life into art was a godsend… and that's no exaggeration!
Not so much a 'typical girl', as a typical child. I worked in a daycare, and I've seen little boys do the exact same thing.
So that blows your 'typical girl' theory. ; p
Here, here for art work done as therapy!!
As opposed to the art work found on the side of boxcars (called vandelism)…? Some of those people are SO talented
Agreed. It's not so much "making up one's mind" as it is failure to pay attention.
Yes some of them are and it is good they get to do other kinds of art work instead of the unwanted splashes of color on drab functional buildings.
Hmmppff. Maybe better, the Jetson spoof on Family Guy, with George telling Jane that he keeps the wallet. Not recommending George's final action, though.

Jean-Claude Bonnefond
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jean-Claude Bonnefond, who was born at Lyons in 1796 studied under Révoil, and became successful in representing scenes from peasant life. About 1826 he went to Rome, and became influenced by the style of Robert and Schnetz, and painted sacred as well as genre subjects. In 1831 he became director of the Art School at Lyons, and in 1837 a member of the Academy. He died in that city in 1860. In the Museum of Lyons there are by him —
- The Bed-chamber. 1824.
- A Woman tired with travelling, succoured by monks. 1827.
- The Ceremony of the Holy Water, on the day of Epiphany, at the church of the Greek-Catholics at Rome. 1831.
- Portrait of Jacquard. 1834. (Commissioned, by the town of Lyons.)
- A Greek officer wounded. Rome. 1826.
- A Roman goatherd deploring the loss of his goat. 1836.

On an international scale, Canada's tax system is unnecessarily complicated, full of red tape, labour-intensive, difficult to understand and costly to administer. Canada's tax system acts as a serious barrier to business, investment, competitiveness and economic growth. This is the number one policy priority, according to CGAs.
CGA-Canada has led the charge urging the federal government to reform Canada's tax system – make it simpler, fairer and more efficient.
To advance this public policy priority, CGA-Canada convened a Summit on Tax Simplification on December 4, 2012. The summit brought together stakeholders, public officials and thought leaders on tax policy to strategize on the issue, inform the debate, establish priorities and identify next steps.
In its 2013 pre-budget submission, the association called on the Commons finance committee to consult with the public and recommend ways to advance tax reform. Carole Presseault, vice president of government and regulatory affairs at CGA-Canada, addressed this issue before the committee at a pre-budget appearance in early November.
On November 6, 2013, CGA-Canada supported a private member's bill dealing with unlegislated tax measures as part of its call for delivering increased certainty, transparency and accountability to tax policy. The bill was presented by Member of Parliament Mike Allen, FCGA (Tobique-Mactaquac).

The Speed That My Project Moved at was Refreshing
By Stephanie Ciccarelli
August 13, 2014
Azara Effect Productions sought out help from Voices.com to find the find the perfect narrator for our latest video; as we all know: a narrator can make or break a film.
The video is an informational piece drawing awareness to a growing threat to one of Canada's largest crops.
We wanted the narrator to sound confident, compassionate, intelligent and articulate with the scientific lingo.
Voices.com has an effective platform for finding talent with such qualities; in a short amount of time, I had narrowed the search to about ten narrators.
Shortly after the project was initiated on their website, I received a phone call from Sonja, an account manager, to welcome me to the process. She was friendly, helpful and most importantly, efficient.
That night Sonja emailed me a link to auditions, read from my script, from the ten voice artists I had selected. The speed with which things were happening was refreshing and greatly appreciated. After mulling over the options with my producers, we chose a narrator to read the full script. Within a few days, the full recording was complete and ready to be cut into the film.
The audio quality was excellent and when a pick-up was required, they were happy to oblige.
Every step of the way the team at Voices.com was in communication with me to ensure I was getting what I needed and was satisfied with the results. I am pleased and appreciative of the product and treatment I received from Voices.com and will be sure to seek their help again for my next film.

"This book, I'm going to have to go back to work. It's not going to make me a millionaire," laughed Thomas Hamill of Macon, Miss.
Hamill talked about his book about his ordeal in Iraq in 2004. Out since October, Hamill is still traveling the country to promote it.
Hamill says he is also going to continue to help with recruitment for the private Texas-based company that he was working for in Iraq when militants ambushed his convoy and took him prisoner.
As for those who may think that his life has changed so much, Hamill says in many ways that's not necessarily true. For instance, he, his wife, their two children and his mother still live in the same house where they lived before he went to Iraq.
"I'm a working guy. If I'm not sweating, I'm not working. That's the way it has always been," said Hamill.
Once the gunshot wound in his arm fully heals, Hamill says he plans to try and clean up his old dairy farm, which has been out of business for almost two years, and buy beef cattle.
Hamill's wife, Kellie, said that it could be anywhere from a few months to two years before his arm is fully healed.
Meanwhile, Hamill says he also still has an interest in driving big trucks and maybe even going back to Iraq.
"But I don't know whether they'll let me go back," referring to his former employer, KBR.
However, when it's all said and done, Hamill says no matter how big or small it may seem to some, in the end there is still truly no place like home.
"God says he'll never put more on us than we can bear. I said, 'God, I can't take no more. You're putting more on me than I can bear. I just can't go any further down," said Hamill, reflecting on his thinking before the job opportunity in Iraq arose. "And I found out over there in Iraq we can take a lot more. We just have to buckle up and stay there for the ride. Don't give up too quick. I couldn't give up over there."

You may have a philosophical argument with how I believe this should work, but hear me out...
If I have a post written in one language, I've probably set all my tags, some custom fields, a category, and probably a number of other details from 3rd-party plugins.
Creating a new translation of that post should really mean creating a *DUPLICATE* of the original post in all respects, except the body of the post and the excerpt.
(i.e. the metadata relating to the post - it's category, fields, etc. hasn't changed, only the words themselves).
However, clicking "Add New" creates a blank post with merely a relationship to the original language.
I'd like to suggest that this is an extremely necessary feature that's not yet in Polylang - clicking "Add New" should duplicate the post, then blank-out the value of the editor and excerpt textboxes.
This way, we're really *re-creating* the post in a new language, rather than starting completely from scratch...
This would save a LOT of work, and ensure consistency across languages (i.e. search results and SEO would work properly, etc.)
Perhaps integrating code from plugins like "Duplicate Post" (or other clone-post plugins) would be a helpful start.... I'd be happy to assist where I can, as I intend to use this plugin on a complete encyclopedia reference site I'm working on!!!
Great work tho, keep it up.

The course begins with a look at several common and inexpensive lens attachments, from polarizers to neutral density filters. The course then explores ultra-wide angle and fisheye lenses as well as ultra-long telephoto and macro lenses. The course concludes with a look at tilt-shift lenses, which are useful for architectural photography and special effects, and at offbeat lenses, such as Lensbaby and Holga attachments.
The course also contains Photoshop postproduction advice and examples that illustrate the creative possibilities that an expanded lens collection provides. And because some specialty lenses are extremely expensive, the course also contains advice on renting gear.
Skill Level Intermediate
Earlier in this course you saw me shoot this building with a tilt-shift lens. I used a tilt-shift to correct the perspective in the building because when I shot it with my regular lens, I got this. I was standing at ground level so as I looked up, this wonderful repeating colonnade of strong vertical lines became a repeating colonnade of diagonal lines, which takes away a little bit of the imposing strength there. With the tilt-shift lens I was able to correct that perspective, bring everything back to square, and end up with a much nicer architectural shot.
I was using the Canon 24mm tilt-shift, which is an incredible piece of glass; it really is one of the sharpest lenses that Canon sells. It's also real heavy; in fact, it's a drag to carry around. It's heavy. It's bulky. It doesn't have autofocus. It's not something that you would use necessarily as an everyday walkaround lens, especially at 24mm. And it's big enough and specialized enough that you're not going to say, well, I'll just throw it in my bag just in case. Fortunately, these days you can replicate the perspective-correction capability of that lens in software, and that's what we're going to do in this movie.
I'm going to take this image that I shot with my regular old 24-105 and I'm going to correct it, to try to get the same kind of look that I got here with my tilt-shift. This is a raw file so I'm just going to open it up in Photoshop. The perspective-correction tools that we're going to use are here as part of Camera Raw. Don't worry. If you're not a Raw shooter, you can still do the same edits within Photoshop, and we'll look at how to do that later in this movie. If you use a different image editor, then you may not have a perspective correction facility, and so you'll need to turn to Photoshop.
What I'm going to do first is simply make the tonal adjustments that this file needs. I've got some overexposed highlights, so I'm going to bring those down, and I'm going to try and deal a little bit with the contrast issue here, get a little more contrast into the image, punch in a little bit of Clarity, just to make some of the details pop. And then I am going to take a look at White Balance. I was shooting in auto white balance and so the shade here went a little too cool. This is a tricky white balance situation because it also got daylight. The camera did an okay job, but I think I can do better by grabbing the White Balance eyedropper.
I'm clicking on something in the image that is supposed to be gray; fortunately, I have all this gray sidewalk just lying on the ground. Click there and immediately the shadows are warmed up a little bit. I like that look better. I think it's a more inviting image, but of course white balance can be somewhat subjective. You could cool this down to make a more imposing image. Now, you might think the next thing that I would need to do would be to crop because I've got all of this extra space around here. But in this case I really don't want to crop, and I think you're going to see why, pretty much immediately. Before I do the perspective correction, let's do one more thing.
This bit is a little hot. It's not overexposed. I can see that because there's no spike over on the right side. I'm going to grab my adjustment brush real quick and just tone those bright bits down a little bit. This is all basic Camera Raw stuff. You should already know this. If not, there are plenty of courses in the lynda library for you to learn this kind of stuff. I thought I'd just quickly walk you through my edit so you could see my take on this image. Now, I'm going to click over here on the Lens Corrections tab and I want to be in the Manual tab, and I've got a number of sliders here that are going to help me address specific lens-related issues.
Let's start here at the bottom, Lens Vignetting. If I had a vignetting problem--that is, a darkening in the corners--I could eliminate it by brightening the corners, by sliding the slider to the right. This is also a nice way of creating a vignette. I can scale the image, which is basically resizing it, letting me zoom in and out. This is not real substitute for an optical zoom. I'm making my image effectively smaller. I won't be able to print it as big. But it can be handy for doing slight, little resizings to correct certain other problems. I could rotate my image if I wasn't shooting level.
We're going to look at these two controls to do our perspective correction, and then I've got Distortion, which is going to let me correct barrel and pincushion distortion. These are the sliders that we really want to pay attention to right now. Vertical and Horizontal basically take the image and map it onto a 3D plane and then let me rotate that plane by way of correcting perspective. So if I take the Vertical slider here--and I'm picking vertical because my main problem is the vertical axis; the image looks like the top is tilted backwards. So I would like to tilt it forward, and you can see these little icons here indicate that I'm going to be able to tilt this plane forward and backward.
Notice my adjustment brush adjustment disappeared there, but it will come back. So watch what's happening. I'm able to just tilt the image so that the bottom recedes into the background. The top comes to the foreground. One practical upshot is my columns are ending up straighter, so I think maybe right about in there, and you can see the adjustment brush edit pop back in. That's looking nice. I need to be too careful that I don't go too far because then the building starts getting really stretched weird, and it starts to look like it's leaning forward.
I could create a very stylized look to make a big imposing building that's leaning over me, but I'm actually going for more other realistic interpretation here right now, so I'm going to go back to about there. So right away I'm doing much better. I've got a really nice perspective correction on this, but the image has a couple of other little geometric problems. Look at this line on the top of the building. It looks maybe tilted. It also looks a little bit curved. I believe it's bowing out in the center here. That is a distortion problem. It has a little bit of barrel distortion.
So I'm going to just pinch the image in a little bit with this Distortion slider. I'm just sliding it to the right, and that's serving to flatten out that line there on top. I'm liking that. I'm wondering about this. It feels to me like this end is dropping a little bit. Now, that could be that I didn't have the camera level, but I think it's more that I wasn't perfectly perpendicular to the building. So in addition to there being perspective distortion going this way, I think there's a little bit going that way. In other words, I need to take my Horizontal slider and just tilt the right end of the image towards me a little bit, and I really think that's done it. That's squared off my perspective quite nicely.
Now, the problem is I've got all this here. I've thrown my image out of square with my frame, so it needs a crop. I can do that crop here. This is why I said earlier that we weren't going to crop yet, because I knew we would need to crop our image later. I can do this crop here, and I immediately face the question of, do I want to just crop to the colonnade part or do I want to the whole building? And now I cannot adjust my crop past the edges of the image.
So if I wanted the whole building, I can't do it. I'm going to not crop here. I'm going to crop in Photoshop, because I will be able to crop into the area where there's no data and try and fix that after the fact. Before we do that, I just want to point out that I intentionally shot this image with all these extra space around it, because I knew I wanted to try perspective correction in Photoshop. So if you are out shooting with this type of edit in mind, you have to pad your image. You have to put a lot of extra space around it because your image, your final edit, is going to require a big crop.
So now I'm going to open this up in Photoshop, and the first thing I'm going to do is grab the Crop tool. Now, I'm going to crop this image. Here we are in the Crop tool. I have an unconstrained crop. I'm not going to try to preserve an aspect ratio. I'm going to crop this image to the edge of the building rather than the edge of the colonnade. I want to see what that looks like, and I can always crop into the colonnade later. So I'm going to just try and preserve as much of the image as possible, there on the bottom, and crop to right in there.
Now, the problem is it's not centered. I've got a little more space on this side than I have on this side, so I think I'll pull back into the tree a little bit, about there, and I'm going to double-click to take that crop, go back to my Move tool. This is looking pretty good. I actually think I want to lose some of the top, but before I do that, I want to address this issue. I've got these bits down here that were empty because of my perspective distortion, so I need to do something to try to fill those. In Photoshop CS5 or later, the best way to work this is to immediately start with Content- Aware Fill. So I'm going to select that area with the Lasso, go up to Edit > Fill and choose Content-Aware, and let's see what it comes up with.
Hey, it did a really good job. Looking in there that just looks like an actual staircase. So now let's try this side. This is a little bit trickier because there's that bit of column right there. Edit > Fill > Content-Aware, and no, that did a pretty good job also. You could argue that the curb is messed up, or you could argue that that's a wheelchair ramp. Just in case you are not wanting that to look like a wheelchair ramp, you could grab the Rubber Stamp tool and simply clone that bit of curve back in, and now we're doing pretty good.
So, this is what it looks like, taking a larger view of the building, and I was able to fix the corners down there, which is nice. I'm going to just quickly see what it looks like if I crop in a little bit tighter, because that bright stuff at the top is so bright, I feel like it's a distraction. So I'm going to pull that in a little bit, and I think I will just go ahead and square off to here and get something more like that. Just so you can see, this is an image shot with a 24-105mm lens and then perspective corrected in Photoshop, and this is an image shot with a tilt-shift lens.
There's really not much difference. I have done a very capable job of correcting the perspective, thanks to Photoshop's perspective-correction tools. As I said before, you don't have to be working in Raw to get this. If you were shooting JPEG you can open up this image in Photoshop and then go to Filter > Lens Correction. I would recommend turning off all of the Auto Correction, switch over here to Custom, and you get the same Transform commands right down here. Vertical and Horizontal perspective let me tilt my image around so I can do this to any type of image that I want.
What's nice about the Lens Correction control is if I want, I can turn on the grid, and that makes it a little bit easier to tell when I have actually squared off my image. So, this is a great way to deal with architectural photography or anytime you've got a perspective problem, even sometimes product photography. If you're working real close you might want to tilt some things around, correct a little bit of perspective. I don't need to carry the big heavy tilt-shift lens. Now, optically I'm not getting as perfect, as pure, an image, but still, for most uses, I think this is a great workaround for a heavy tilt-shift lens.
