Post-It Notes' Elvis
Its really amazing what creative people can come up with? An awesome Elvis was created out of post-it notes. Yep you read it correctly, post-its. If you are interested then you can also create something really interesting & here are some really good details of how to do it. One recommendation they made which you aren't supposed to miss, 'use only super sticky post-its or you'll likely have a few fall due to gravity after only a few hours'. Here is the flickr photo set.

Complete List of National Parks
for Your World Travel Bucket List
As we began to compile a complete list of National Parks for this piece to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the National Parks Service, I was shocked and dismayed to realize how few of the 59 officially designated parks we've visited. Fortunately, we're already planning a future family road trip to visit some of the many parks still on our bucket list.
The NPS was created by Congress through the National Parks Service Organic Act on August 25, 1916. Run by the US Department of the Interior, the agency was designed "to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and wildlife therein, and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations."
This century-old concept has since been applied to more than 6,ooo national parks in nearly 100 different countries around the world. To honor the idea that helped give birth to ecotourism and conservation, we've gathered nearly 50 of our travel blogging friends to write mini-guides to all 59 US National Parks.
We hope our list of national parks will prove to be an evergreen resource, paying tribute to what documentarian Ken Burns called "America's best idea."

WEST CHESTER — Ennid and Sennid Santiago, identical twins except for the beauty mark on Ennid's left cheek, have parents who felt they should not have to share everything. So the night of Aug. 20 at the twins' quinceanera - a Latino celebration marking a girl's 15th birthday - there had to be two of everything.
Two big bands. Two double-tier birthday cakes. Two courts of seven couples where there would normally be one - seven damas in gowns and seven caballeros in tuxedos who make up a 14-person entourage to complement the birthday girl, making 15.

A punctured gas main in Valencia prompted the evacuation of three homes near West Hills Drive on Tuesday morning, a local fire captain said.
About 10:10 a.m., firefighters with the Los Angeles County Fire Department were called to the area after receiving reports a construction worker had accidently severed a gas main, said Capt. Paul Hartwell of Fire Station 156.
No one was hurt and there was no fire, he said.
"The construction worker was drilling and hit a 4-inch natural gas main," Hartwell said.
"Our biggest concern was the West Creek Academy, so we notified them right away."
The rupture had no impact on the nearby school and it was not evacuated, he said.
"The gas company maintenance guys came out and placed a 4-inch clamp and had it fixed within an hour and a half," Hartwell said.
Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station deputies assisted in the evacuation, said Sgt. Rich Nagler.
Fire Department spokesman Stephanie English said the three homes were evacuated as a safety precaution.

Art & Design BFA - Photography
BFA - Photography
The Photography program emphasizes a conceptual fine art practice through the production of darkroom, digital, and hybrid work. Courses integrate socially situated projects with an understanding of both contemporary and historical visual culture by developing a vocabulary for effective visual communication within the photographic medium. In addition to black & white darkroom and digital color photography, students explore a variety of photographic practices, including large format, studio lighting, alternative processes, and digital imaging. Photography's paradoxical role as both evidence of the real and window into a manipulated world allows for the recontextualization of cultural, ethical, economic, aesthetic, and psychological themes. Students address the impact of an image-mediated world through performances for the camera and straight documentation, by connecting formal and aesthetic elements to larger theoretical issues, as they establish an authentic sense of self as artists. Courses focus on developing technical and conceptual aspects of the medium, while emphasizing the photograph's potential to engage meaningfully with ideas and society. The area also encourages the exploration and redefinition of the role of photography within a contemporary fine art context, allowing for experimentation with image appropriation, presentation, and installation, as well as the creation of interdisciplinary collaborations among students, faculty, and the community.
For a list of current faculty and staff with contact information and biographies please visit the Art & Design Faculty & Staff page.
Undergraduate Facilities:
Photography facilities include a traditional black & white darkroom capable of accommodating 18 students, 5 film processing rooms, a digital imaging and output lab equipped with 10 Macintosh stations and small format printers, a 44" wide-format Epson Stylus Pro 9900 printer, 3 high-resolution scanners, a multi-purpose finishing/dry space, secure display cases with rotating presentations of student work, and two lecture classrooms. In addition, the area has large-format camera and location lighting kits available for checkout by advanced photography students. Undergraduate photography facilities are located in the basement of Mitchell Hall, room B84.
Graduate Facilities:
Graduate photography facilities include a dedicated black & white and alternative process darkroom, digital imaging and output lab with 1 Macintosh station, Epson Stylus Pro 4880 printer, and Epson Expression 10000XL scanner. Graduate photography facilities are located on the 4th floor of the Kenilworth building, a well-equipped studio facility that offers access to a wide range of tools and equipment in each disciplinary area. In 2006, the new Kenilworth building became home to all Art and Design graduate and faculty studios. This is a stand-alone renovated factory building on Milwaukee's East Side, less than a mile from the UWM campus. Kenilworth contains studios for all of the arts, including Dance, Film, Music and Theatre, and includes gallery space, a screening room, various installation sites, and studio facilities. All graduate students are assigned working studio space and receive 24-hour access to this state of the art facility.

The Science Museum features seven floors of educational and entertaining exhibits, including the Apollo 10 command module and a flight simulator. The Wellcome Wing showcases developments in contemporary science, medicine and technology. The Medical History Gallery in the museum's attic contains a substantial collection of medical history treasures. Pattern Pod introduces under-eights to the importance of patterns in contemporary science and Launch Pad is a popular hands-on gallery where children can explore basic scientific principles. Exhibits in the Exploring Space galleries include the three-metre-high, 600kg Spacelab 2 X-ray telescope that was flown on British space missions and full-scale models of the Huygens Titan probe and Beagle 2 Mars Lander.
The Clockmakers' Collection, previously held at the Guildhall, will move to the museum on October 23 2015. It's the oldest display of clocks and watches in the world, with most of the 1250 exhibits dating from between 1600 and 1850.
The museum's in-house IMAX cinema shows scientific films in 3D, allowing visitors to be surrounded by space or submerged in the depths of the ocean. Tickets start at £11 for adults and £9 for children, and booking is recommended. The shop is worth checking out for its wacky toys, while the Dana Centre is the Science Museum's adults-only centre for free lectures and performance events on contemporary scientific issues (www.danacentre.org.uk).

When I was a schoolboy my parents would take me to the science museum each year. The exhibits presented a fascinating account of the history of technological innovation. I remember highly informative galleries devoted to steam engines, space exploration and aviation. I am sure the museum influenced my career choice and encouraged me to become an aeronautical engineer. Today I returned to the museum expecting to see those familiar galleries updared with the latest audio visual interactive technology.
At the entrance to the museum, I was shocked at being asked to make a £5 donation. Most London museums have a collecting box for donations, and I normally make a donation. But to have every visitor stand in line and ask for a donation is tacky.
The museum continues to house the treasures which I remember from my youth - Janes Watt's steam engines, Stevenson's Rocket, the Apollo 10 command module etc. but there was no coherent display, no thematic galleries, no informative storytelling. There was simply a confused and poorly presented collection of objects. Some information boards out of date, some so dark it was impossible to read. The confusion was evident right from the start where the famous entrance hall and collection of steam engines is now punctuated by a ticket sales desk, a space capsule made of Lego and a machine for commemorative coins. And of course a large brightly lit gift shop.
This should be one of London's great museums. It certainly has objects which would make a great museum. But this museum appears to have lost its way and is poorly curated. Britain is the birthplace of the industrial revolution and we deserve something better to tell that fascinating story to our children and visitors from around the world.
Excellent museum with so many different exhibits to see. I took my 4 year old and she particularly liked the space exploration exhibit and the electricity exhibit on the mezzanine floor. Loads of interactive things to do and engaging for all ages.
A lot of effort has been put into making this place memorable.
Really fun museum and very educational! I used to come here on school trips but its just as fun as an adult. The majority of the museum is free too! They also have interesting temporary exhibitions which are always worth checking out.
I remember coming here when I was a kid, and it still hadnt lost its charm when I came back. So educational and super fun! Cant wait to bring kids when I have them myself.
This has to be my favourite museum in London. It was so exciting to take my kids and they loved even more than i did.
Love this museum - I went as a child myself and have fond memories of the space exploration and kids area. It's great to see my own children now building memories that will last a life time. Simply awesome and magnetic
Great place to spend weekend with your children. Not only they will learn about science through interactive exhibitions and objects but also you will discover scientific facts you had no idea about. The admission is free and the average time to enjoy all that Science Museum has to offer is 2 to 3 hours. Don't forget to visit the gift shop, lots of great ideas for original gifts.
Something for everyone! A fantastic place with so much to see and do! The fact that it is free is a bonus, we'd be happy to pay.
Brilliant museum with really good displays for all ages.
this is a fab free day out with kids
Slightly underwhelming as wasn't as interactive as I was expecting, or indeed as interactive as it could be. It was interesting nonetheless though.
great place to be...
Absolutely brilliant. Great for a day out and I must say, the food was fantastic too. Fabulous gift shop where you can easily spend too much!
Absolutely brilliant. Great for a day out and I must say, the food was fantastic too. Fabulous gift shop where you can easily spend too much!
Great for the family or with friends, great as a date idea too!
Pack a lunch as food a little pricey and get there early to avoid a long wait!
This is a perfect museum for science lovers and for whole family as well. It is made for all kind of people from kids to old no matter u will have fun
My suggestions for a must-visit in London include: British Museum - The most notable items in its collection include the Parthenon sculptures, the Rosetta Stone and the Ancient Egyptian mummies.
Great museum!
Its great because you can go back so many times and see something new every time, lots of fun interactive and educational things.
Great place to spend the day! I have been there over 5 times and i never get bored, this museum it is an amazing place!
Great place to spend time pleasantly and learn Excellent for children to take part in interactive stuff.
Not just a fun day out for this science geek, but a brilliant and diverse collection of things to get your mind going. Interactive exhibits are absolutely wonderful, and our visit took hours upon hours as we got absorbed in playing with things. Great fun!
Great fun to visit. I went with someone who believes that what doesn't say "Don't touch" you can touch it...well not every time so when you hear the alarm you definitely put your hand on something which you shouldn't. Whether you visit with kids or friends it is just a nice place to be and have some fun to wonder about things and see objects which you didn't even know exist :)
The science museum is a fantastic place for a day out - children of all ages will love the interactive element and so much to see and do - you will need more than one visit to cram everything in,
I went to the Science Museum with my nephew and niece and must say that it is a wonderful day for a fun day out. Each of the kids decided on one section to see, we went to one of the bubble shows for kids and then the kids played in the play area. They loved it and want to go again next time they visit!
This is one of my favourite London Museums. It makes me feel like a kid again - really fun and interactive. I especially love all the 'Lates' events they have on the last wednesday of every month. Highly recommend it.

HIV Matters is a quarterly town hall forum that explores the latest advances in HIV/AIDS treatment, care, biomedical prevention, and cure research. The November 14 event will feature Timothy Ray Brown, known worldwide as The Berlin Patient. He has been living HIV-free for the past five years after contracting the disease in 1995. Brown is the only known person to have thus far been cured from HIV. He also suffered from acute myeloid leukemia, which ultimately led to a bone marrow transplant from an donor who was genetically resistant to HIV. One focus of the HIV Matters forum will be a discussion regarding how science is advancing this high-risk procedure into other therapies that could be used much more safely with the general HIV-positive population – and could potentially lead to a viable cure for the disease. Much of the leading HIV cure research is happening in Southern California, making Los Angeles the ideal venue for this event, thanks largely to the California Stem Cell Initiative.
As well, the National Institutes of Health is highly invested in HIV cure research and biomedical prevention efforts. APLA also works closely with another local leader in HIV vaccine and cure research, the UCLA Center for Clinical AIDS Research and Education (UCLA CARE). This cure forum was also presented in Palm Springs on the evening of November 13 in collaboration with the Positive Life Series.
AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA) was founded in 1983 and is one of the largest nonprofit HIV/AIDS service organizations in the United States. APLA provides bilingual support to more than 6,000 people living with HIV/AIDS in Los Angeles County annually and leadership on HIV/AIDS-related policy and legislation. Additionally, APLA conducts behavioral research designed to inform the development of evidence-based interventions and assists health departments in evaluating their HIV/AIDS services to ensure the delivery of effective and quality programs. APLA also provides administrative and fiscal support to the Global Forum on Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSMGF), which promotes and advocates for the health and human rights of MSM internationally. APLA is proud to be a community-based, volunteer-supported organization with local, national, and global reach. For more information, please visit apla.org.

In the October 1981 issue of the Archives there is an interesting article. Rats were exercised and then killed. Their organs were removed to study lactic acid metabolism. Similar experiments were then performed on human volunteers. How many people did it take to hold down these volunteers while their organs were being removed?!! Tsk, tsk, tsk. Wait till Jerry Brown hears about this!!
These letters were transmitted to the MEDICAL NEWS editor, Philip E. Gunby. "The similarity,"reports Gunby, "ends this side of [human] lethality. As described by the California investigators, the studies called for the human participants to give a lot (in terms of exercise) but not their all." —Ed.

We have peformed point source extraction from a Spitzer/MIPS survey of the largest galaxy in the Local Group, M31. The MIPS-24 micron image shows with unprecedented clarity the distribution of evolved stars with circumstellar envelopes in M31. These sources have typical luminosities of 103-104 solar, which are consistent with asymptotic giant branch and red supergiant stars with circumstellar envelopes. Our catalog is cross-correlated with 2MASS and with a recently published catalog of Long Period Variable stars. We interpret the distribution of 24 micron point sources in the context of galactic structure, identifying sources in the nucleus/bulge, arms/rings, and interarm regions. The point sources are superposed on newly revealed structures in diffuse emission emanating from the bulge and nuclear region as well as from the star forming rings seen by ISO and IRAS.

Jabberwocky: The media is continually ridiculing Trump's "America First" foreign policies. I had no idea. Trump has definitely exposed the media as being more corrupt than I realized. Media is no longer independent journalism. All the commentators push hard for the agenda their corporate media CEOs dictate to them. --There are 3.8 million square miles in the entire USA. As a comparison....20 trillion dollars (which is our national debt) would buy the entire acreage in the USA for $8,225.00 per acre. Most of the acres in the rural areas are not worth more than a couple thousand per acre. BTW....That is where the USA gets most of its food. --This is the scary part. We had $8 trillion trade imbalance since 2000. So with that and war spending etc., there is at least 10 trillion laying outside the USA. The only time that money ever returns to the USA, is when it buys some of our assets, like US land. In the meantime, our own citizens don't even get to use that vast amount of USA currency. Our own citizens can't even use our own money while we pay interest on it to rich people who don't need it. This problem is getting worse every day. And the modern economists say, with free trade, we have no problem. Maybe it's our modern day school system. Well....it isn't going to work, folks. And every day...it is getting worse. VoteTrump

The Log Cabin Quilters met Thursday, May 26, at the Levy County Quilt Museum. It was a very nice fellowship day. We had lots of new books to look at and finding out how many more need our prayers.
Next week we are cleaning the Museum of so much we don't need. The kitchen is full of all kinds of stuff. We'll pull it all out and put the duplicates on the north porch and try to get rid of it. More about that later.

Excellent MD. Doesn't use a nurse practitioner. Sees his patients, calls them back, accurate assessments, great bedside manner. Rare MD.
My only complaint is the billing department . Carla who works in the billing department is very rude when a question or a dispute of my bill was brought up. She was very unprofessional with her choice of words. Dr. Fong is an excellent Doctor, but his staff member Carla should take a customer service class since she is representing Dr. Fong in a very poor manner
Always explains things, not just you have this, but it caused by this, and this is what your body is doing and this is why it feels that way. always wants to try a simple solution first, and often that works
Dr. Fong has been our family doctor for over twenty years. My children are now 27 and 19 and both still see him. My husband and In could not imagine our health care and the care of our children being put in better hands. Dr. Fong has always been accessible, returns phone calls & does follow up.
Dr. Fong has been my primary care physician for more than 5 years, and I could not be happier. I have experience in dealing with many doctors on a daily basis as a caregiver, and Dr. Fong is the best doctor I have ever met. Extremely dedicated, very intelligent and always caring.
This Doctor is excellent. He has been our family doctor for years. Now that our children have grown and have children of their own, our two sons and their families also have him as their family doctor. We recommend him highly.
I feel comfortable when my kids go in for their appointments. Dr. Fong takes the time to listen to their questions and gives answers they can understand. He even has a sense of humor. All my kids feel as ease asking questions.

AUSTIN - As Betzy Jimenez stood atop the medal stand for the second time Friday, as her second Class 4A record was announced for yet another time and an appreciative crowd roared, the Hereford senior could only smile and wipe away tears from both cheeks.
"It's definitely a very special day,'' she said. "Two records, two gold medals. I can't ask for any more. I've waited so long to be able to be a state champion.
"I'm just really emotional. I'm just so happy. I may not have run as fast as I wanted, but it's just overwhelming to end my high school career like this.''
It was one of the best performances for a Texas Panhandle athlete at the UIL state track meet. Jimenez not only won the 3200 and 1600 state titles but set 4A records in the process.
In the morning, she outkicked McKinney North's Samantha Means to win the 3200 in a record time of 10:37.4. Friday night, she returned to Mike Myers Stadium fresh and fast for the 1600. With her only competition the huge clock at the north end of the stadium, Jimenez broke a 22-year-old record with a clocking of 4:54.16.
In a strong showing by 4A athletes, particularly those from Hereford, Jimenez was joined on the gold standard by Plainview's Jamar Wall, who won the high jump. Hereford's Chris Koenig was second in the shot put, while the Hereford duo of Abby Metcalf in the 800 and Blake Yosten in the pole vault had solid showings but did not medal.
But Friday clearly belonged to Jimenez. The University of Texas signee ended her day by rolling to a convincing win in the 1600 by more than 70 meters. She had eyed the all-time Panhandle mark of 4:52.4 set by Brenda Moore of Amarillo High in 1984, but with no competition on her shoulder, she had to settle for breaking the 4A mark of 4:57.4 set by Sheila Quigley of Austin Westlake in 1984.
Jimenez broke from the pack shortly after the first lap. She had an 8-yard lead with a 2:25 at the 800 mark. And by the end of the the third lap, run in 3:41, Jimenez ran by herself to the urging of the crowd of nearly 20,000 and PA announcer Phil Ransopher. She finished nearly 13 seconds ahead of Gregory Portland's Erica Parker (5:07.03).
"I can't feel anything but ecstatic,'' Hereford coach Ray Baca said. "We've talked about this goal (Moore's 4:52.4) for so long, but how can you be disappointed when everyone in the stands is cheering for you?
"It was so awesome. How many people get 20,000 people standing up for them? It's an unforgettable night.''
And an unforgettable day, too. Jimenez's rewriting of the record book began in the morning with the 3200 as she and Means held a classic 8-lap duel to the tape.
After a slow first 800, Means pushed the pace, and Jimenez went with her, stalking her for the last five laps. The two came through the mile in 5:21, well ahead of the rest of the field.
"Once she (Means) goes, it was just a matter of being ready,'' Baca said. "Once she goes, she was going to go all out.
''Betzy's fit, and it was just hold on, hold on, and don't let the gap get to, say, 15 meters. But I don't think it got to more than three.''
Indeed, the two were almost stride for stride through seven laps. With the clock reading 8:02 with one lap to go, the 4A record of 10:41.60 set 11 years ago was in jeopardy. But who would win?
Jimenez tried to pass Means near the top of the curve, but she answered the challenge. Jimenez tried again on the backstretch, but Means held her off. Then with 100 meters left, Jimenez had one last surge, and this time forced her way past Means with 70 meters to go and held on by two strides.
"I knew it would be close,'' Jimenez said. "She's so strong, but I have more foot speed. If I could stay with her over the last 200, I could win it.''
It was the best 3200 in 4A girls history. Not only did Jimenez shatter her all-time Panhandle best by 12 seconds and the existing 4A mark by four seconds, but Means, too, was under the record as she finished in 10:38.45.
"It could have gone either way,'' Jimenez said. "At the last 100, when I tried to move past her, I could hear her grunt, and I knew I could win it at that point.''
In boys competition, Wall got knocked out of a bronze medal on the last attempt in the long jump, finishing fourth at 23-7. But that disappointment turned into unexpected elation in the high jump.
Wall, bound for Texas Tech to play football, was among four jumpers who cleared 6-10, but he took the gold on fewer misses. He topped Texas City's Julius Walker, who went 7 feet at regionals.
"Honestly, I didn't think I'd come out with a win. I was just trying to medal,'' said Wall. "Everybody has a bad day, and I guess it was just my day to shine.''
Wall, whose best this year was 6-8, cleared 6-4, 6-6, 6-8, 6-9 and 6-10, all on his first attempts. He didn't miss until all did at 6-11. The key height was 6-9. While Wall cleared on his first try, Walker didn't make it until his third and last attempt.
"After the long jump, I was kinda down, but then I got focused,'' he said. "This was my last athletic competition in high school, and I gave everything I had. I don't know how to express it, I just thank God.''
Hereford's strong day was punctuated by Koenig's runner-up finish in the shot put. He threw a personal-best of 58-5 - an improvement of nine inches - to finish behind only Andrews' Pablo Guiterrez's 60 feet.
"I'm proud to do as good as I could and loved every minute of it,'' he said. "One of my major goals was to medal, and I went out and did it.''
Though they didn't medal, Yosten and Metcalf ended the season on an up tick. Yosten set a personal mark in the pole vault for the fourth meet in a row, clearing 15-3 to finish fourth. Metcalf, a sophomore, shaved 2.5 seconds off her top time in the 800 to finish fifth in 2:15.11, the area's top time. She, along with Jimenez's two wins, helped Hereford finish sixth with 22 points in the team totals.
Palo Duro's Clay Waggoner narrowly missed a bronze medal in the 400, finishing fourth in 48.68, off his best of 48.20. Justin Amos of Boerne was third in 48.64.

5 Things to Consider When Choosing Any New CameraCasey Mullins
Whenever the time comes to invest in a new camera there are five major things I consider when making my decision. And when I say 'new camera' I'm not just talking about a DLSR. I'm talking about any item that is brought into my life which is capable of taking a photo. This includes, but is not limited to, point and shoot cameras, toy cameras for the girls, video cameras, cell phone cameras, cameras built into computers as well as DSLRs. While I am capable of taking a photo in any situation, there is a particular style I like to my photography meaning there are specific things I want a camera to be capable of. Just because a camera is good for someone else doesn't mean it's the perfect camera for you, which is why I put forth my major considerations as well as the ones you should ponder when making any camera purchase.
Let's just get this out of the way, this is a post sponsored by Samsung and while I don't have the Samsung Galaxy camera in my hot little hands yet, all my social photography parts are tingling in absolute anticipation because when it comes to my major struggles among my cell phone camera (a Samsung Galaxy SIII chosen and purchased by me) my DSLR (a Canon 7D also chosen and purchased by me) and my point and shoot (holy basic Kodak, Batman) The Samsung Galaxy camera seems as though it will step in to fill the gaps between the other three major cameras in my life which makes me think they basically made it just for me as well as people like me, but more on that later.
The five major considerations I have when looking into a new camera are these:
How quickly can it go from turned off to shutter click? 1 of 5How many times have you missed a perfect moment because you were waiting for a camera to start up? Infuriating right? Right now my DSLR takes the on to shutter click award, with my phone in a close second (I have the camera available immediately from the lock screen) and in third is my point and shoot. She's old. She's tired. Takes a bit to get her going. Another big consideration I used to have which has pretty much been resolved was shutter lag, these days most cameras take a picture as soon as you press the shutter, but it's still a really good idea to double check.
Does it have a macro setting? 2 of 5Macro means you can get up close and personal with an object and your camera. Sadly my DSLR loses this one since I need a special lens to really get my macro on. My phone wins the macro setting round because this? Was taken with my phone. (Point and shoot? You lose this round, no macro setting for you, sorry.)
Can you choose where to focus and how's the DOF? 3 of 5DOF or depth of field basically means how blurry can the background get when you're focused on something closer to you. f/2.8 is pretty average for most point and shoots and in the right circumstances will give me enough good blur to work with. The lower the f/number the better the camera will do in low light as well. The winner on this one goes to my DSLR and its f/1.4 lens but an honorary trophy goes to my phone with Instagram where I can manually add a little blur where and when needed. (Point and shoot still loses at f/3.5. Womp womp.) As far as selective focusing, both my DSLR and phone win, learning to use selective focusing makes unicorns happy.
How Well Does it Travel? 4 of 5Hey DSLR, you lose this one because not only do you not fit in my pocket? You don't even fit in my purse. Finally the point and shoot gets runner up to my phone which takes all the glory in this category. Does travel well means takes the best photos for the occasion? No, but sometimes you have to rely on the saying "the best camera is the one you have with you."
How easy is it to get photos OFF the camera? 5 of 5My DSLR requires a very specific card reader and computer. My point and shoot requires an even more specific cable or I can take the card out and put it into my computer. There's still all the hubbub of transferring the photos, uploading them, then sharing them with the world. When my phone takes a picture I can send it to a dozen different places at once or I can plug it into my computer and save them all on my hard drive. My daughter once had a toy camera that required a screwdriver and set of pliers to get the photos off (that camera got "lost.")
We are a social generation these days, we take a majority of photos with our mobile devices because they are what is already with us and we can share or lives with our friends immediately. When digital first came on the scene we all knew film was better in a lot of situations but we used digital because it was so easy! Immediate gratification! Mobile photography has become an art form of its own and made the immediate gratification of digital instantaneous.
When you're looking into a new camera consider what you will be taking photos of, where and when. A majority of my photos are of my kids and my cats in my house where there is really good light. But if you're a food photographer looking to share your culinary delights? You will need to take an entirely different approach to choosing and selecting a camera, while mobile devices allow you to proclaim your foodie prowess immediately, a good point and shoot or DSLR will allow you to properly capture food in a more visually appealing way.
This is where I get excited about the Samsung Galaxy Camera, all the immediate sharing capabilities of my phone with a quality closer to what I'm used to with my DSLR. It's a pretty genius idea.
A big thanks to Samsung for sponsoring this campaign. Click here to see more of the discussion.

Jennifer Lopez is famous for her multitasking career as a singer, actress, designer and dancer. But motherhood has taken her juggling act to a whole new level.
Until recently, Lopez and husband Marc Anthony, who welcomed twins Max and Emme in February, didn't have a nanny to help out with child care.
"I did it for a long time but we started using a nanny a few weeks ago," says Lopez, 39. "[Most days] I get up early with them. Then when the nanny comes, I can take a shower and give them their breakfast. She's there to help me get things done."
As for getting back to work, Lopez says she'll take it a day at a time. "It's gonna be a learning experience. How will I do both? I try to take breaks from work," she tells PEOPLE. "I'll do a little work with the choreographers and then come back. I try to spend every free moment with the babies."
The mornings are her favorite time with the twins. "When they see you and have that big smile on their face – I live for that," she says. "And when I put them to bed at night and they melt in your arms. I give them a bottle and wind it down. I say, 'It's time for beddy-bye.' I hold them and sing a little song. By the time you know it, they are asleep."
Adding to her bliss: Lopez is perfectly happy with her post-baby body. "The triathlon really helped get me in better shape, and snapped me back into my body," she says, referring to last weekend's Nautica Malibu Triathlon. "I don't weigh myself a lot. I still have 10 lbs., or so. [But] I don't have any problems with it. I never felt I had to get rid of it."
Asked how she stays so sane about her body image, she laughs: "We like to eat!" On a serious note, she adds, "I think you have to love yourself and indulge when you want to, as well as be happy and just have a healthy attitude towards it."
Besides, she notes, "Marc loves the way I look!"

Yearlong Workout: Phase II, Workout A
3 Cable Woodchop
Sets: 2 Reps: 10 (each side) Tempo: 111 Rest: 60 Seconds
Attach a rope handle to the pulley of a cable station, grab it, and stand a few feet away so that you feel tension on the cable. Turn your body perpendicular to the machine so that the handle is over one shoulder [1]. Now rotate your torso diagonally downward and to the opposite side as if you were chopping into a tree, until the handle passes your opposite knee (allow your feet to pivot naturally). Reverse the motion to return to the starting position. That's one rep. Complete all your reps on that side, and then switch sides and repeat.

"Did you see the first game he played? He looked like Herman Munster," coach Tom Izzo said. "The guy's (bruised) back, he couldn't do anything."
But Izzo said Monday that Costello would definitely begin to receive more than the 6.5 minutes that the 6-foot-9 freshman has averaged.
Costello's conditioning continues to improve, and so could his comfort level on the court after the Spartans finished a stretch of four games in eight days that allowed for few practice opportunities for players to get better.
Costello could get an extended look against Miami on Wednesday, as the Hurricanes have numerous big men who could force Izzo to go away from his small lineups.
"What they want me to do is not necessarily be an offensive powerhouse," said Costello, who is averaging 2.3 points and 1.3 rebounds per game. "I'm going out there, I'm trying to stop them on defense and run the floor."
Said Izzo: "We need a guy to do the dirty work."

Hellyeah Drummer Vinnie Paul Clarifies Band's Current Lineup
Hellyeah definitely shook things up earlier this year when they announced that guitarist Greg Tribbett and bassist Bob "Zilla" Kakaha had exited the group. The announcement came right as the band was announcing that they had completed a new album and were planning to release it. Now, in a new interview, drummer Vinnie Paul clarifies the band's current lineup and how they intend to proceed after parting ways with the two musicians.

Update: Zabian Dowdell (LINK) made his NBA debut on Tuesday night! He entered the game for the Phoenix Suns against the Denver Nuggets at the start of the 4th quarter. Unfortunately, it took a 30-point deficit for the Suns to get Dowdell in. After jumping out to a 32-20 lead at the end of one, Denver outscored Phoenix 82-40 in the 2nd and 3rd quarters to turn the game into a woodshed beating. He scored his first career points later on in the quarter, hitting a couple of free throws. After missing his first three shots, Dowdell hit a 19-foot jumper for his first career field goal. Zabe finished 1/6 (most were outside jumpers) with 4 points and added a rebound, 2 assists, and steal in 12 minutes.
This might not get the national fanfare of when Shaq went to the Phoenix Suns (a.k.a.: The Big Cactus), but our beloved Zabian Dowdell has finally made it to the NBA. Zabe signed a 10-day contract to play for the Suns (these contracts are standard with fill-ins while a team gets a chance to see if they want to keep a player longer term). He will wear #22 for the Suns.
Dowdell played with the Suns' Summer League team the last two years but was cut in training camp before this season. He then played for the Tulsa 66ers in the NBA D-League before the Suns picked him up. Zabe was averaging 14.5 ppg and 5.6 apg in the Developmental League.
Zabian still sits in 8th on the Hokies' career scoring list, 6th in assists, and 3rd in steals.
Dowdell did not play in the game Sunday night, but he had just signed that day. One site claims the signing is more for practice purposes and that he might not see the court much, if at all (he's behind Steve Nash and Goran Dragic). Here's hoping the former Hokie First Team All-ACC player gets a chance to show his stuff, at least a little bit, during this 10 day stretch. The Suns next game is Tuesday and they play five games total during those 10 days.

Euro in Longest Losing Streak Since 2010 as France Downgraded
The euro slumped for a sixth week, the longest stretch of losses versus the dollar since 2010, as the stripping by France's top credit rating by Standard & Poor's magnified concern the region's financial turmoil will intensify.
The shared currency slid for a third week versus the yen and fell against the majority of its most-traded peers after negotiations between Greece and its creditors were put on hold. Currencies of commodity-producing countries rallied amid bets China's central bank will ease credit conditions. U.S. inflation rose in December, a report next week may show.
"The ratings downgrades on the face, they are bad but markets have been anticipating this for some time now," Brian Dolan, chief strategist at FOREX.com, a unit of the online currency trading firm Gain Capital in Bedminster, New Jersey, said. "The Greek situation is quite dire. If they don't reach some sort of agreement by the end of next week, they may very likely be forced in to a hard default."
The euro fell 0.3 percent to $1.2680 yesterday in New York, from $1.2717 on Jan. 6. Its last six-week losing streak ended Feb. 19, 2010. The euro touched $1.2624 yesterday, the weakest level since Aug. 25,2010.
The shared currency depreciated 0.3 percent to 97.57 yen in a third weekly loss. It reached 97.20 yen yesterday, the lowest level since December 2000. The dollar was unchanged versus the Japanese currency at 76.97.
Wagers Against Euro
Futures traders increased bets to a record high that the euro will decline against the dollar. The difference between wagers that the shared currency would fall versus those that it would rise -- so-called net shorts -- surged to 155,195 in the week ended Jan. 10, according to data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission released yesterday.
The euro dropped yesterday as S&P lowered the top ratings of France and Austria one level to AA+, with negative outlooks, while affirming the ratings of countries that included Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. The company also downgraded Italy, Portugal, Spain and Cyprus by two steps and cut Malta, Slovakia and Slovenia by one level.
"It's the same level as the U.S.," French Finance Minister Francois Baroin said on France 2 television yesterday, disclosing France's downgrade before S&P announced it. "It's not a catastrophe," he said.
S&P had put the ratings of 15 euro nations on review on Dec. 5 for possible downgrades.
Fiscal Compact
The common currency was headed for a weekly gain versus the greenback before yesterday. German Chancellor Angela Merkel discussed Europe's debt crisis in meetings with French President Nicolas Sarkozy, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde and Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti.
The euro rose for two days after Merkel said Jan. 9 a blueprint for closer fiscal union among nations that use the currency may be ready a month early. The outline of the budgetary-discipline effort was negotiated at a Dec. 9 summit.
The European Central Bank held its benchmark interest rate at 1 percent on Jan. 12 after lowering it by half a percentage point since November. ECB President Mario Draghi said he saw signs of stabilization in the economy.
The loss by France and Austria of their AAA credit ratings may erode firepower of the euro-region's bailout fund that's needed to tap markets to finance aid for Greece, Ireland and Portugal. The European Financial Stability Facility owes its AAA rating to guarantees from the euro region's top-rated nations.
Global 'Panic'
"There could be panic around the world on contagion as sovereigns have difficulty acquiring credit," Axel Merk, president and chief investment officer of Merk Investments LLC in New York, said yesterday in an interview on Bloomberg Television. "We need clarity on reform process, and that causes uncertainty and then you just get downgraded step by step, and that's not a rosy outlook."
Greece's creditor banks broke off talks yesterday after failing to agree with the nation's government about how much money investors will lose by swapping their bonds, increasing the risk of the euro-area's first sovereign default. Negotiations have "paused for reflection," the Institute of International Finance said in an e-mailed statement.
The euro fell 0.4 percent over the past week against nine developed-nation peers tracked by Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Currency Indexes. The New Zealand dollar rose 2 percent in the best performance, while the Swedish krona was the biggest loser with a decline of 0.9 percent.
Testing Switzerland
The franc rose to the strongest against the euro since September after Philipp Hildebrand quit as head of the Swiss National Bank and investors tested the bank's cap of 1.20 francs per euro. A currency transaction by his wife last year had dented his credibility. The SNB said in a statement the limitation, imposed in September to curb the currency's strength, "remains unchanged."
The Swiss currency rose 0.6 percent this week to 1.2076 per euro and touched 1.2063, the strongest level since Sept. 20.
Commodity currencies including Brazil's real and New Zealand's dollar rallied amid bets the People's Bank of China will expand last month's cut in banks' reserve-requirement ratio to boost the economy.
The real climbed 3.9 percent to 1.7863 per dollar, the best performance against the greenback among major currencies. It reached 1.7708, its strongest since Nov. 18. New Zealand's currency rose 1.8 percent to 79.47 U.S. cents. China is the biggest trade partner of both Brazil and Australia.
IntercontinentalExchange Inc.'s Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against the currencies of six major U.S. trading partners, rose 0.3 percent to 81.460 in its third weekly gain.
U.S. consumer prices increased in December for the first time in three months, gaining 0.1 percent after stagnating in November, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey. The government reports the data on Jan. 19.

Referee Samuel Viruet counted out Agnew, who went down from a long left jab-hook to the body, at 0:58 of the final round.
Kovalev (24-0-1, 22 knockouts), who turns 31 on April 2, was last in the ring for November's second-round knockout of Ismayl Sillakh, while Agnew (26-1, 13 KOs) will ended be a nearly one-year ring absence after last April's unanimous decision over Yusaf Mack.

Kovalev is 12-0-1 with 12 knockouts over the course of his past 13 fights.
The HBO broadcast begins at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT

The colors of spring have started bursting from budding trees and bushes, but North Charleston is already looking ahead to summer and a different, louder explosion of color.
The city has again hired one of the world's largest fireworks manufacturers to prepare for what North Charleston claims as the largest fireworks show in the Lowcountry.
Riverfront Park will be the venue for the annual alcohol-free event, where North Charleston typically offers Independence Day activities for children and adults, and a selection of musical performers.
Zambelli Fireworks Manufacturing Co. of New Castle, Pa., will handle the pyrotechnics, with a $35,000 budget from North Charleston approved by the City Council in March.
Councilwoman Dot Williams said North Charleston has the best fireworks show in the Lowcountry, but she thinks Mount Pleasant unfairly gets all the television station coverage, for the show at the Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum.
"It's not a little overlooked, it's a lot overlooked," she said. "It's very unfair."
The North Charleston doesn't have an aircraft carrier, of course, but the fireworks show is free, in the city park along the Cooper River, and Williams said attendance is terrific.
"The citizens love it," she said. "It's always packed."
Representatives of Zambelli Fireworks did not return calls seeking comment.

Can you imagine a man, a real human eating metal every day for more than 40 years? Do you think I'm joking? No, I'm not. Meet Michel Lotito, an entertainer from France, who holds the Guinness world record for the "strangest diet", including nine tons of metal.
(Image source – Travel Nooks)
He is well-known in his country as Monsieur Mangetout ("Mr. Eat Everything"), a title which he earned by eating 2 Beds, 7 Television Sets, 6 Chandeliers, 18 Bicycles and 15 Shopping Carts. Those were only his appetizers, before he ate an airplane for breakfast. That's right a real Cessna 150 Airplane. He ate the plane for two years from 1978 to 1980.
(Image source – monsterrebellion)
Now you may ask, "How the hell did he do that?". Well, first he chopped the metal into smaller pieces and then dipped them in mineral oil before swallowing them down his throat. Lotito died in 2007 at the age of 57. Not because of he ate metal and weird stuff, it was a natural cause. Check out the video after the break to see a couple of his bizarre stunts.

The PRESENCE of excessive amounts of serum globulins in association with various types of disease processes, including neoplasia, is well recognized.1 In some instances these paraproteins behave as macroglobulins,2 cryoglobulins,3 pyroglobulins4 or are altered in some other manner chemically, immunologically, or electrophoretically. When the presence of a narrow, homogeneous globulin band on serum protein electrophoresis is discovered, multiple myeloma, less frequently macroglobulinemia or cryoglobulinemia, is considered the most likely diagnostic possibility. However, the occurrence of an identical pattern is recognized in association with various types of malignant lymphomas and leukemias.5 Occasionally this narrow, discrete, homogeneous band appears in association with malignant neoplasms of epithelial cell origin.6 The purpose of this paper is to describe the occurrence of an IgG paraproteinemia in association with bronchogenic carcinoma.

FAU History Graduate Appointed U.S. Ambassador
BOCA RATON, FL (November 1, 2010) – FAU graduate Robert M. (Skipp) Orr was recently sworn in as U.S. Executive Director to the Asian Development Bank, with the rank of ambassador. Orr was selected by President Obama for this position earlier this year and later confirmed by the Senate. Orr graduated with a B.A. in History, cum laude, from Florida Atlantic University in 1976.
"The history department at FAU was the foundation of my education at the upper level," said Orr. "The fact that I have been appointed by the president of the United States to this position has less to do with me than with the value of studying history, which is, in my opinion, the best undergraduate degree one should seek. I want to have my appointment noted less for me than for the value of studying history. A history major is so expansive."
From 2007-2010, Orr was chairman of the Board of the Panasonic Foundation and concurrently vice chair of the National Association of Japan-America Societies, a member of the Board of Trustees of J.F. Obirin University and a member of the Board of the East-West Center Foundation. From January 2002 until March 2007, Orr was president of Boeing Japan.
He held this position during the development of the most successfully selling airplane in history, the 787 Dreamliner, 35 percent of which is made in Japan. Prior to joining Boeing, Orr was vice president and director of European affairs for Motorola based in Brussels. And previous to this, he held various senior level posts with Motorola in Japan, culminating as Vice President of Government Relations. In that capacity, he successfully led the negotiations that opened up the cellular phone market in Japan.
In addition to the corporate world, Orr also has spent many years in academia and the U. S. government. Between 1985 and 1993, he was a professor of political science at Temple University in Japan with two years off to run the Kyoto Center for Japanese Studies and the Stanford Center for Technology and Innovation at the Stanford Japan Center in Kyoto. His book The Emergence of Japan's Foreign Aid Power, published by Columbia University Press, won the 1991 Ohira Prize for best book on the Asia Pacific.
Orr's career began in 1976 when he served for two years as legislative assistant to Congressman Paul G. Rogers (D-FL), a 12 term member of the U.S. House of Representatives. Between 1978 and 1981, he served on the House Foreign Affairs Asia Subcommittee staff seconded from the Select Committee on Narcotics. In 1981, Orr was appointed as special assistant to the Assistant Administrator of Asia in the U.S. Agency for International Development in the Department of State.
Orr holds a B.A. in History, cum laude, from FAU, an M.A. in government from Georgetown University and a Ph.D. in political science from Tokyo University. He speaks German and Japanese fluently, and has intermediate French.
Orr's wife, Mitsuko, of 34 years and he, along with their Golden Retriever, Marina, reside in Manila, Philippines, headquarters of the ADB, and maintain residences in Kamakura, Japan and at their other home near Pau in Southwestern France.
For more information about the department of history at FAU, call 561-297-3840.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 begins filming
When it was announced that Spider-Man was going get the reboot treatment, many geeks, myself included, were skeptical.
Who could blame us? Spider-Man 3 just didn't cut it, and having to redo it all over again just didn't feel right at first. Too many remakes out there as it is, you know?
Now The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is officially shooting right now, and Sony has released an official synopsis. Before we go into the basic storyline though, in case you haven't been following the developments with the film, there may be two villains in the film this time around.
"Peter hasn't forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen's father to protect her by staying away – but that's a promise he just can't keep. Things will change for Peter when a new Villain, Electro emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn, returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past."

Penn State's "White Out" effect was strong last season. A quadruple-overtime win over No. 18 Michigan not only thrilled a sellout crowd, but helped to seal the deal with a number of high-profile recruits. Most estimates had more than 100 blue-chip prospects on the sideline that night, witnessing the best environment Penn State had to offer.
The end result was three verbal commitments in the next 11 days and a fourth in defensive tackle Thomas Holley, who later decommitted after former coach Bill O'Brien left for the NFL's Houston Texans.
The Nittany Lions can only hope for the same impact when No. 8 Ohio State visits Beaver Stadium on Oct. 25. A similar turnout amongst recruits can surely be expected, with one key prospect already penciled for a visit. Four-star offensive tackle Matthew Burrell tweeted last night that he would take an official visit to Penn State that weekend.
#PSU v. #OSU on the 25th will be my day !!! #107kStrong
— Matthew Burr€ll Jr! (@HeaftyLefty) September 3, 2014
Burrell is widely regarded as an Ohio State "lean," and he's taking an official visit to Columbus this weekend for the Buckeyes' non-conference contest against Virginia Tech. A trip to Penn State next month will give him a direct comparison between the two programs, both of whom rank among the leaders to land Burrell, along with Alabama, Florida and Florida State.
Burrell is one of the top remaining targets for Penn State coach James Franklin, who has assembled a 2015 recruiting class that ranks No. 5 nationally on ESPN.com, No. 7 on 247 Sports and Scout, and No. 8 on Rivals.com. The 19-member class features three offensive linemen already in OG Steven Gonzalez and OTs Sterling Jenkins and Ryan Bates.
As Franklin and offensive line coach Herb Hand enter the next phase of rebuilding a depleted offensive line, versatility will be a key quality in recruits. Burrell offers flexibility with the size and length at 6-4 and 305 pounds to ultimately play either tackle or guard at the next level. Penn State could likely offer him an early spot on the depth chart at either position.
The preseason narrative for both Penn State and Ohio State has changed in the last few weeks, to the point where the Nittany Lions have a more realistic shot at competing with the Buckeyes. Ohio State labored through a season-opening win over Navy in the absence of senior quarterback Braxton Miller, while Penn State had impressive moments in beating Central Florida.
Ohio State's Urban Meyer and Larry Johnson, the former PSU assistant listed as the primary recruiter for Burrell, have momentum on their side now and the first shot at hosting Burrell on an official visit. But Franklin can build momentum and give the Nittany Lions a chance to leave a lasting impression when Burrell comes to town on Oct. 25.
Holley, a four-star defensive tackle, arrived at Penn State for the Michigan game last season strongly considering offers from Ohio State and a number of SEC schools, and he was swayed to choose Penn State, in part, by the win over Michigan. Penn State can hold out hope that a similar performance and similar crowd can have the same impact on Burrell.
