Comments about Nashua Handknits Summer Garden:
This yarn is lovely, and I'm sad it's being discontinued. I made the Abyssal Shawl with the Hollyhocks colorway, and I couldn't be more pleased with the result. It's soft, has wonderful drape before and after blocking, and is warm without being too much so.Definitely going to splurge on more before it's all gone.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Just right
By Marly's Mom
from San Leandro, CA
I knitted the Gemini Cardigan fron Fall Interweave Knits. I had made the sweater in a wool blend and wanted something lightweight for spring and summer. The sweater had a raglan shoulder so I added yo eyelets along both sides of the raglan giving a lighter, lacy look. I really like the result. The finished sweater is light and cotton in the blend makes the finished fabric a bit softer than it would be if it was just linen.
Awesome yarn!

Love it!

I have been making lots of dish and/or facecloths with this yarn. I love mine in the kitchen. Only complaint is that some of the dye is washing out. I assume that this will decrease over time. Color remains fine. The high linen content allows the cloths to dry quickly. Buying more for my stash.

Just a string of coincidences or a guiding hand from above?
You decide.
Dawn Hughes grew up in a family that loved Corvettes. In fact, for years her dad drove a 1964 Sting Ray convertible that he loved, but he eventually had to sell the car.
But not before he passed on his love of Corvettes to Dawn. In fact, she saved all she could for years to get one of her own. During what turned out to be their last conversation about Corvettes, her dad smiled and said, "I want to be there when you get it."

Skill Level Beginner
An important step in importing your photographs into Lightroom is considering the File Handling options. After you've selected, say, the folder you're been import, how you want to import those, in this case Add. We have this File Handling panel. Now we have a couple options for Render Previews, Minimal, Embedded, Standard or 1:1. Now Preview is really important, because choosing this option will help Lightroom figure out how you want to work with these files. And what it will do is it can generate a preview in the background, so you don't have to wait every time you click, you have to wait for the preview to be generated, you can just get onto your work and work in Lightroom effectively.
So understanding these various options can be really helpful for looking at different ways of working with Lightroom. Because of that, what I want to do is jump to a few slides and see if we can deconstruct or understand how these options actually work and how these options also connect to a catalog settings that we may want to change. Let me go ahead and jump to my slides here and talk a little bit about File Handling Previews. Again, we've seen this dialog, we have seen that there are these four options. These options are really about speed versus quality.
Now what do I mean by that? Well, the top two options allow us to have quicker previews of our images, Minimal is the absolute quickest, yet it's not that high of a quality of a preview, it's not that accurate, Embedded & Sidecar is little bit better, but again it's just the embedded preview that you get, say when you shoot in raw capture, all RAW files have a little JPEG in them, that's how we view the image on the back of the LCD screen on our cameras. So again it's a good but it's not perfect.
On the other hand, we have Standard and 1:1. These are a higher-quality preview. Standard allows us to select a pixel dimension, so that when we see this image, we can see it in a way that it's accurate to the color and tone all these things and we can make a decision on how we might want a process it or work with the file. 1:1, that creates a preview that is just everything. Now you may be thinking well, why not just choose 1:1, I mean that seems like the best bet right.
Well sometimes you can have too much information and that can take too much time and it kind of bog down your workflow. In my own experience, I shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II. I find that Standard works really well and that that's the best option, giving me good quality. It takes a while to generate it but it's well worth it. The other thing to keep in mind with File Handling is this idea of that this connects to a catalog settings, I mentioned this before. And if you look at these two dialogs, they both have to do with File Handling.
They both have to do with the Standard Preview size which again is the most common preview size. You can choose a certain pixel dimension with this and basically you want to choose something, which is close to the resolution of your monitor. The other option is Preview Quality. This dialog allows you to choose high medium or low, which is a little bit vague in my opinion. What exactly is this? Well, High gives you a pro photo color space or a wider gamut color space, more colors, more accuracy, Medium and Low, less colors, less accuracy.
Lightroom uses this really big color space, it taps into a lot of the data in the digital file which helps us to process them in really powerful ways. This preview of High gets closer to being able to see what that is, pro photo is really close to the color space that Lightroom uses. So that may be a preference that you want to consider. Now that we've seen this in the slides, let's go back to Lightroom and take a look at how we can dial in these preferences ourselves. First of all we have seen that we can choose the different options, I should also point out why would you want to use Minimal.
That could be great when you're the wedding photographer, you just want a quick preview and then create a slideshow at the wedding. You are not really concerned about evaluating the image in this full form or on the other hand if you're a photographer like me who does a commercial, personal, or editorial shoot and then comes back the computer and really wants to sit down and work, really wants to see the information of the file, Standard is probably going to be the best bet there. Of course, this all depends on how you shoot, what you shoot, what type of camera you have.
But again, my recommendation is to try standard. Before you import what you want to do though is go to your Catalog Settings Preference, so I am going to cancel out of there and navigate to Lightroom Catalog Settings and navigate to File Handling. Now here's where I can choose that Standard preview size. If I am on my desktop and I have a pretty high resolution monitor, well, I am going to choose a preview size which is much higher. If I am on a little teeny laptop, may be something smaller. So again, it's going to be contingent upon your own workflow.
Next step is Preview Quality, here typically High is best, it gives you a more accurate preview, and then if you do generate 1:1 previews which will happen when you zoom in on files and whatnot, it's asking you how often you want to get rid of those, because those take up a lot of space as you can imagine for generate a high-res preview from a pretty high end capture camera. So the default setting there of 30 typically works best. Well now, that we've looked at some of these options that we have to consider with importing and also some of the catalog settings, let's go ahead and take a look at how we can finish off this whole process of importing photographs from a folder and let's look at how we can do that in the next movie.

Preliminary findings suggest that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can have antidepressant effects. We sought to test this further in a parallel-group, double-blind clinical trial with 40 patients with major depression, medication-free randomized into three groups of treatment: anodal tDCS of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (active group – 'DLPFC'); anodal tDCS of the occipital cortex (active control group – 'occipital') and sham tDCS (placebo control group – 'sham'). tDCS was applied for 10 sessions during a 2-wk period. Mood was evaluated by a blinded rater using the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). The treatment was well tolerated with minimal side-effects that were distributed equally across all treatment groups. We found significantly larger reductions in depression scores after DLPFC tDCS [HDRS reduction of 40.4% (±25.8%)] compared to occipital [HDRS reduction of 21.3% (±12.9%)] and sham tDCS [HDRS reduction of 10.4% (±36.6%)]. The beneficial effects of tDCS in the DLPFC group persisted for 1 month after the end of treatment. Our findings support further investigation on the effects of this novel potential therapeutic approach – tDCS – for the treatment of major depression.

Skip to comments.Obamas Unready Navy: Multi-decade neglect has sent our Navy into decline
Posted on 10/24/2012 6:52:29 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Barack Obama has never understood why we must maintain a strong Navy or why the decline in the number of ships is such a big deal. He cited the advanced technology of our equipment in his condescending and arrogant quip after Romney raised the issue. Obamas sneering response We have these things called aircraft carriers where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines completely missed the point.
In citing high technology, Obama gave us a display of brazen hypocrisy at its finest. On his watch, the Department of Defense has been cutting procurement programs such as the F-22 and the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle. In both cases, our military personnel must now make do with aging alternatives (the F-15C and AAV-7 family of vehicles). The F-15 entered service in 1976, the AAV-7 in 1972. By the 2016 election, both of these systems will be 40 years old, and expected to still be in service for as much as a decade. So much for relying on new technology Obama has halted production of the high-tech replacements.
The Obama administrations neglect of the Navy can be typified by the early retirement of the USS Enterprise (CVN 65) and its plans to decommission other naval assets. In August of this year, I outlined on NRO why the Enterprise should remain in service, but the Big E is only the most prominent asset slated for premature retirement. The administration also plans to decommission and scrap six Ticonderoga-class cruisers, although the vessels have as many as 15 years of service life left (even without further overhauls). Maintaining freedom of the seas requires hulls in the water and the Navy hasnt even started building the replacements for these cruisers. At present, all we have is a design study called CGX, which may or may not enter production.
This is one area where Obama is particularly culpable: His administration, in an effort to cut costs, proposed the retirement of the USS Enterprise (which his allies in Congress passed in 2009) and the six cruisers. Numerous crises are heating up around the world, as recent events show, but there is no indication that Obama has reconsidered these retirement plans. Certainly, it would not be hard to halt the retirements, and extenuating circumstances clearly warrant a supplemental appropriations bill. None of our carriers or submarines no matter how high-tech they are are capable of covering the Persian Gulf and South China Sea at the same time, or the Mediterranean Sea and the Korean Peninsula simultaneously.
Obama and his allies in Congress talk about cutting the defense budget in order to spur nation-building at home. Accordingly, they have accelerated the decline, begun in 1991, of the U.S. Navys ship totals. What they fail to mention is the fact that Chinas defense budget has at least quadrupled since 2000. China is becoming more aggressive around the Senkaku Islands and the South China Sea, in disputes with American allies such as Japan and the Philippines, and they have just commissioned their first aircraft carrier. The Chinese build-up, including new planes, stands in stark contrast to the Obama administrations negligence in failing to keep the Navy properly maintained.
As the Chinese buy new ships, planes, and armored vehicles, the United States under Obama seems content to stand still. At the very least, the nation should have a quantitative edge in the latest weapons. To that end, the administration should halt the retirement of equipment (including planes and ships) and also build new equipment. If he does not follow this path, Obama will have made Americas task in a potential war with China more difficult.
In World War II, when the United States built a navy second to none, our military had a running start with the Naval Expansion Act of 1938 and the Two-Ocean Navy Act of July 1940 bills passed long before the attack on Pearl Harbor. But even with that running start, most of those ships did not arrive on the front lines until mid-1943 or later, and many sailors and Marines paid the price in blood for Americas failure to prepare. Who will pay the price today, in the event of military conflict?
New naval construction and the overhauling of older assets also have an important side benefit: new jobs. Spending dollars this way is not the weaponized Keynesianism that critics decry. Its simply a prudent investment certainly more prudent than the taxpayer dollars lavished on Solyndra, A123, and other green-energy investments.
Ultimately, the neglect of the United States Navy has been a multi-decade scandal. Romney is to be commended for proposing to rectify this disgraceful situation, although the 313-ship-force level is still only a little more than half the total of the 600-ship Navy that was able to send six carriers to the Persian Gulf for Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm. In this case, Romneys proposed build-up is a starter home for rebuilding the Navy but much more will need to be done.
Harold Hutchison is the author of the novel Strike Group Reagan.
My recently retired Father built nuclear subs, then surface ships for Litton Ind for 30 years. Then he built them for Northrop Grummand for five more before he retired.
You don't want to hear what he has to say about Northrop! Could he be a little old school and grumpy? Maybe, but he still has the same opinion after a few bourbons which means he's telling the truth!
See, Obama knows about submarines. He really has been paying attention at those intelligence briefings! Take that, you Obama-bashers!
The Modern DECLINE of MY United States Navy BEGAN with George HW Bush and HIS SEC DEFENSE CHENEY.
I was happy to hear Romney point out that the strategy used to be that we could fight two wars simultaneously, but since the 0bama regime took power, one is the limit. I was disappointed that it wasn't pointed out that our troops have been stretched to the limit with many having served 5, 6 or more deployments to the combat zones.
456 P-3s to be replaced by 40 P-8s (if that many). Mine warfare ships to be eliminated. Good luck with that.
Pretty embarassing lack of knowledge by the author here; CGX has been dead for years, and the cruisers will be replaced by the DDG-51 Flight III with the AMDR radar, currently being designed with construction beginning in 2016.
There are a lot of flaws with Flight III (it's going to be incredibly cramped as the DDG-51 hull isn't big enough, and it won't be remotely as capable as CGX) but if you're writing about the Navy for a major website like NRO you should know this stuff.
As much as this guy may be right overall, he loses all credibility the moment he talks about how the Enterprise is being retired early.
The ship was designed for a 25 year service life and is now 50 years old. Her infrastructure is deteriorating, with the worst part being the brittleness in her reactor vessels.
I know people who have recently served on the Ghettoprise. Or the Enterprison. Or the Mobile Chernobyl. The ship has performed phenominal service to this nation far beyond what she was designed for. She's been rode hard and will be put away wet. The only shame if the situation is that she won't be saved as a museum.

In addition we led the charge for open homosexuality in the services
Will they have the "Richard Danzig" requirements fulfilled? Specifically coed quarters, reduced standards for the females, and I suppose the "Maubus" areas so the sodomites can service each other while out to sea?
That is correct. This is a bi-partisan effort.
Submarines are not ships. They are boats.
And the crossdressers and transsexuals are vying for military service.
Yes, I know the reason (it's impossible to remove the reactor vessels without slicing the hull up) and the logic is sound. I don't care. The ship should be saved, if for no other reason than to atone for the national sin of scrapping her namesake USS Enterprise CV-6.
RE: Submarines are not ships. They are boats.
But aren't ships, boats?
All ships are boats but not all boats are ships.
Dictionary definition: A boat is a watercraft of any size designed to float or plane, to provide passage across water.
Navy 101: Ships have a pointy end and a blunt end.
Exactly like the previous Obama, Jimmy Carter. The saying we he had back then was "the two things a naval officer needs to learn are Russian and life boat drill".
We have needed these submarines for years.
I agree completely. The USN has two old decommissioned SSBNs (Lafayette class boats iirc) in Charleston SC as reactor trainers. I dontvsee why the USN couldn't just keep Enterprise and use her in that role. She'd be able to provide 4x the reactors for classes, plus have all sorts of additional space for classrooms.
Bush Sr., Clinton, and Bush Jr. are also responsible.
Wonder who will be competent to operate a larger fleet. Annapolis probably has a multitude of majors other than surface warfare. Reports have also circulated that less than qualified candidates have been admitted.
Do you mean the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act (with sequestration and passed by Congress a number of years before it actually was allowed to take effect?) Was it veto-proof? I was in the AF at the time and knew that it would result in cuts because it was accompanied by a big change in the rating systems whcih meant that many folks would be disallowed reenlistment. It reared its head during Reagan's Admin and he wouldn't cut military spending or raise taxes as their push to balance the budget caused both parties to stand their ground. I didn't follow all the issues at the time and it kept being pushed back until HW's hapless tenure - not sure what he could have done to stop it.
The Berlin Wall fell.
It was called a peace dividend.
There are two types of naval vessels, in the humble opinion of the US's Silent Service (Submariners).
Submarines and targets. Deo Vindice.
What do you mean? The nude commodore: http://www.navytimes.com/news/2012/04/navy-bahrain-bash-commodore-david-geisler-040812w/
Or, the criminal fraud new female (formerly only male served) submarine officers?:http://www.navytimes.com/news/2012/03/navy-female-submarine-fraud-investigation-030212w/
Or the inimitable screaming looney Capt. Holly Graf, fortunately run out of the Navy?:http://www.susankatzkeating.com/2010/01/captain-holly-graf-plows-down-whale.html
This is some REAL leadership in the brown and black shoe Navy. That and queers who insist on "their space".
Top to bottom cleanup needed.
Yep. We can learn a lot form some of our allies on this.
With these vessels, we would not have to send in one of our larger, much more heavily manned, and much more expensive Virginia Class into such shallow water to try and do the same job.
And they would be a natural to work in concert with the LCS in that environment.
I would argue that Johnson and MacNamara did far more damage to the US Navy than Dick Cheney.

zummies, remember them well.
When we have to go up against a modern Navy, perhaps the Chi-Coms in a few years, I'm afraid all those carriers are going to be death traps, as they overwhelm them with anti-ship missiles.

"We were very pleased with this great quality product. The vibrant colors and overall look of the photos on the finished product exceeded our expectations. We will be using Tiny Prints again!"
"Very elegant looking card. I used the black & gold colors and personalized it on the back with 2 photo options from my son's High School years. Several compliments from friends who received this announcement."
"I loved this announcement! I put my name on the top of the front card and where I am graduating from on the bottom of the front. It looks beautiful. On the back I chose to do the plain tan color with a colorful picture of me on it. I also added where the graduation ceremony will be held below the picture."
"I was looking for simple cards to send to family and this design covered all that I was looking for - nice design, great quality, good price!"
"Ordered the cards to help my granddaughter prepare for her graduation. I was very impressed with the size, quality and appearances of the card. I will surprise her with them next week and including a gold,silver and blue pen to add any final touches she may want."

The Cocktail Diaries: The Midnight Manhattan & Tasting Notes on Pendleton Whisky's Latest Release
A fun twist on a Manhattan and tasting notes on Pendleton Whisky's latest release!
We made these treats for a certain baby's first birthday party this weekend, but I think they'd be pretty rad for your Super Bowl party next weekend.
This study is based on my intensive research gobbling a million of these this weekend.
Here's what you need:
Before you begin, prepare a brownie pan by greasing it well, adding a layer of parchment paper and then greasing again.
Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over low to medium heat. When the butter is melted, start slowly adding marshmallows, and stirring constantly. DO NOT turn up the heat. As the marshmallow in the pan soften, you can add a few more at a time. It will probably take about 10 minutes to have them totally melted.
Remove the pot from the heat. Add the Cheerios one cup at a time, as you stir. Try to get as even of a coat as possible over all of the cereal.
Move the mixture to the brownie pan and flatten with a spatula. If the mixture has cooled most of the way, you can grease your hands and use them to flatten the bars.
Microwave the chocolate chips and cream/milk for 15-second intervals, stirring in between sessions until melted and smooth. Drizzle over the top of the bars. Follow with sprinkles, chocolate chips, or whatever you like!
Allow to cool for ten minutes before slicing (don't wait longer, or they will be very hard to slice).

ODS was in a HBB Turbobooster and the top piece that adjusts is very loose. Meaning that even after it snaps into the level, I can still easily push it back down with one hand. The other TB that I have needs much more effort to push it back down.
My instinct is not to use it anymore as a HBB since the positioning rings and headwings may not stay in place in a crash. Would you agree?
He's 8 and the back was adjusted as high as it could go. He fits just fine using the booster as a backless booster so that's what I've done, but I didn't know if I could use it as a HBB for any of his friends.

Etrade returned all the inactivity fees on my fathers account after I wrote them an angry letter and referred them to all the complaints here. I guess it's a miracle, or perhaps the threat of costly litigation. Now we'll see if they refund my own fees.

Now Playing Onstage in Sioux Falls - Week of 5/11/2014
Click Here to View BroadwayWorld.com Sioux Falls Calendar
This international smash-hit may be the most popular musical in the world. In 19th century France, Jean Valjean is released from 19 years of unjust imprisonment, but finds nothing in store for him but mistrust and mistreatment. He breaks his parole in hopes of starting a new life, initiating a life-long struggle for redemption as he is relentlessly pursued by police inspector Javert, who refuses to believe Valjean can change his ways. Finally, during the Paris student uprising of 1832, Javert must confront his ideals after Valjean spares his life and saves that of the student revolutionary who has captured the heart of Valjean's adopted daughter. His world-view shattered, Javert commits suicide, and Valjean at last attains the peace he has sought for so long.Epic, grand and uplifting, LES MISÉRABLES packs an emotional wallop that has thrilled audiences all over the world. The sung-through pop opera is ideal for a cast of exceptional singers and overflows with melodies that are already standards. A spectacle on Broadway and in London, LES MISÉRABLES is equally effective with a minimal set; it is its powerful affirmation of the human spirit that has made LES MISÉRABLES a popular masterpiece.

The Futrelle Sisters, Frankie, Honey Raye and Twink, are throwing a wedding. Frankie has almost made herself sick with elaborate preparations for her daughter Tina Jo's antebellum-inspired wedding, and the rumor mill in their small town of Fayro, Texas, is working overtime. No surprise there, as the Futrelle Sisters have never been strangers to gossip. After all, they did survive the scandalous breakup of their almost-famous gospel singing trio, The Sermonettes. But Twink's desperate attempts to get her boyfriend of 15� years down the aisle, Frankie's ongoing conversations with their dead mother, and Honey Raye's tendency to race to the altar at every opportunity have kept tongues wagging for years.

Advertising's Big Four: It's Their World Now
Published: March 31, 2002
(Page 4 of 4)
When Maurice Lévy, chairman and chief executive of the Publicis Groupe, failed to pull off a hostile takeover bid for its former American partner, True North Communications, in 1997, Wall Street wrote him off as an also-ran in the grinding consolidation of the advertising industry.
As recently as three years ago, that prognosis looked solid. Publicis then ranked 10th in revenue among the world's 10 biggest agency companies.
But Mr. Lévy was undeterred. He directed a frenetic burst of deal-making that brought into the Publicis fold Fallon McElligott, Saatchi & Saatchi and Nelson Communications. (True North, meanwhile, lost its independence anyway, bought by Interpublic last June.)
With the acquisition of the Bcom3 Group, Publicis will become the fourth-largest agency company by revenue -- twice as big as Havas Advertising, the French rival that Mr. Lévy has fiercely sought to surpass.
''I have enormous respect for Maurice,'' said Ms. Fine, the Merrill Lynch analyst. ''He has really delivered for shareholders.''
Since bottoming out at $14.75 in October, shares of Publicis have come back, closing last week at $34.04.
Mr. Lévy has also delivered for his major clients, according to one of them.
''Maurice commits to you in a very personal way,'' said Lindsay Owen-Jones, chairman and chief executive at L'Oréal, the cosmetics and fragrance giant in Paris. ''When it comes to any major problem, I know I can call Maurice any time, day or night, and he's there.''
Mr. Lévy, 60, entered advertising in 1966, but not to create ads or to work on accounts.
''I'm in this business by chance because my education and training was as an engineer, in data processing,'' he said in a telephone interview from his Paris headquarters.
''When I saw the offices at heavy industry and banks, they were absolutely sad, boring,'' he recalled. ''When I sat in the lobby of an ad agency, I saw the men with long hair and the women with miniskirts and I said, 'This is the place to be.' ''
Five years later, Mr. Lévy joined Publicis, also in data processing. On his first day there, he said, he met Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet, the founder of Publicis who introduced France to the American style of advertising.
''He told me, 'One day you will run this company,' '' Mr. Lévy said. ''When I got home that night, my wife said, 'Don't worry, he's probably saying this to all the young people at the agency.' ''
But a year later, when the Publicis office on the Champs-Élysées caught fire one night around 9, Mr. Lévy, who was still at work, saved the computer files. Mr. Bleustein-Blanchet called him ''my loyal warrior'' and made him the heir apparent.
Mr. Lévy, who became chief executive in 1988, said the fact that he was ''French-born and European'' gave him certain advantages over his American and British rivals.
''When you are here, you know the Germans are different from the Spanish and the Spanish react differently from the Portuguese, the French, the Belgians,'' he said. ''We better understand the cultural and behavioral differences, the diversity,'' which is increasingly important as advertisers seek ''to talk not to masses, but to individuals.''

I was married in August 2007 and mailed in the certificate in the same month, with a request to use it in March 2008. The certificate required a 45-day advance notice. One Stop Travel has since returned the certificate THREE times.
I called the company to file a complaint and speak to a manager. I was informed that I could log-on to the web-site to use my certificate and to file a complaint. When I logged onto the web-site, I found that there was no link to file a complaint. And the best part. when I attempted to reserve my vacation, using the web-site -- after entering all of my information (using their dropdown criteria) and clicking on the Submit butten I received an error stating that the [reserve date]??? was not a known element.
These people are GOOD.
Finally, after searching the web I found two email addresses for the company. I entered the information into the website again (received the same error), copied and pasted all of the information to an email and sent it to both addresses on January 9, 2008 with a request to contact me when they received it.
Of course, I have heard nothing.
