Hi, Beautiful table! When you say chalk paint , is that milk paint? I'm sorry still learning.
05/29/2014 Flag
No, chalk paint comes ready mixed but has a very similar granular feel to it once dry.

White Chocolate Mousse Pudding
Serves 4
The name is a little longer than I had hoped it would be, but in testing this recipe I found that different brands of vegan White Chocolate gave different results. The brand I get sent from
New Zealand
(Sweet William FYI) gives a lighter, more mousse like, result than the brand I
can buy here, which was thicker and more like a pudding. So be warned! The
final consistency may differ depending on the brand you use.
Different brands also have different levels of sweetness, so taste the mix after blending, and add additional agave then re-blend if the mousse/pudding isn't sweet enough for you.
If you don't have, or wish to use, 4 individual serving ramekins, then use a larger serving bowl and scoop out the mousse/pudding to serve. Decorate to serve with chocolate chips, chocolate shavings, nuts or fresh fruit, whatever you like really. Berries in season are particularly nice.
One 12-ounce packet Firm Silken Tofu
2 tablespoons Soy Creamer, or Soy Milk
1 ttablespoon Agave
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 Cups white Chocolate Chips, or chopped white Chocolate
Using your blender or food processor, blend together the tofu through vanilla until very smooth and lump free. Scrape the sides as required.
In either a double boiler or microwave, using 15 second intervals, melt the chocolate chips. When melted and smooth quickly add to the blender and blend into the tofu mix. Work quickly to avoid the chocolate cooling too much and getting lumps in the pudding.
Pour into serving ramekins, smooth the top and chill at least 2 hours prior to serving, preferably overnight.
Orange White Chocolate Pudding
Add a small amount (¼ teaspoon) of pure Orange Extract to the mixture when blending for a delicious choc-orange variation.
Vanilla White Chocolate Pudding
Add the scrapings from a Vanilla Bean for a heavenly vanilla accented pudding.
Butterscotch Pudding
If you have access to vegan Butterscotch Chips then use those in place of half of the White Chocolate Chips for a decadently butterscotch treat.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Detroit Tigers left fielder Ryan Raburn had the only hits through four innings against Oakland A's left-hander Gio Gonzalez.
But both of Raburn's hits reached the seats for his ninth and 10th home runs of the year and sparked a 3-2 win Friday night. Edwin Jackson won for the third time in four starts to improve his record to 10-5.
Detroit started a road trip with a win for the first time since a 5-4 victory against the Chicago White Sox in the first game of a day-night doubleheader June 8. That also came in the last road series the Tigers won.
"We've got a tough road trip," Jackson said. "We go from here to Anaheim, and it does not get easier. It's imperative to win this series."
Raburn has seven homers in 84 at-bats against southpaws this season to average one every 12 at-bats.
He might have gotten a trip to Toledo instead of riding a couple pitches out of the park had Tigers manager Jim Leyland decided to add a 12th pitcher for this six-game trip to California.
But he's simply too valuable to be without.
"Raburn had a big game with a couple of big blows," Leyland said.
Raburn had just eight homers in 349 at-bats over parts of three previous seasons with Detroit, but has 10 in 187 in 2009.
It was his second multiple-homer game. Raburn had one as a rookie in 2007, connecting twice off Jose Contreras of the White Sox at Chicago.
Raburn credited Tigers hitting coach Lloyd McClendon with shortening up his stroke this season.
"The power has always been there," Raburn said. "I've just been more consistent at the plate. Lloyd told me to shorten it up."
Clete Thomas' two-out single in the sixth drove in Miguel Cabrera to make it 3-1.
Oakland's struggling designated hitter, Jack Cust, factored into both of his club's runs.
He lined a single to right to score Ryan Sweeney, who led off the second inning with a looping double that Raburn charged and nearly caught after first going back on the ball.
Raburn had a fielding error in the fifth that did not lead to a run.
"I don't like playing on this field," he said, "but I like hitting in it. Maybe it's the West Coast."
Raburn also misjudged some balls in a game in Anaheim in April, but said he now uses eye drops to combat the dry eyes that affected his vision that night.
Cust's leadoff single in the seventh marked the end of the night for Jackson. Southpaw Bobby Seay came on and got two quick strikeouts before walking Adam Kennedy.
Brandon Lyon came in with two on to face right-handed hitting Rajai Davis and gave up a run-scoring double.
However, Lyon struck out No. 3 hitter Kurt Suzuki to end the inning.
Oakland had a run snuffed out in the fifth by a pulled-in infield. Daric Barton raced toward home from third with one out, but Placido Polanco's quick release nailed him at the plate. Catcher Gerald Laird tagged Barton on the helmet before he could score.
Polanco speared a one-hopper up the middle by pinch-hitter Nomar Garciaparra with one out in the ninth to save the tying run from scoring.
"I thought it was a hit for sure," Leyland said. "It's unbelievable. That was a rocket he came up with."
Fernando Rodney then got Adam Kennedy to go down swinging for his 26th save in 27 opportunities. Rodney decided shaking hands wasn't enough for Polanco in the victory line, and hugged him, too.
Jackson notched his 19th quality start and ranks third in the American League in that category. His 2.86 ERA is fourth in the league.
And now, he's getting rewarded for his strong pitching. Jackson won for the third time in four starts after preceding that with one win over nine outings.
Detroit moved to 3 1/2 games ahead of the White Sox, who lost to the Baltimore Orioles.

Body & Soul Faculty
If you are interested in a place where career aspirations are not disconnected from family, church and community; where learning is informed by faith and where servant leadership is expected and modeled; where you are taught by dedicated full-time Christian faculty; then you belong in ACU's Body & Soul program. Meet some of the outstanding Body & Soul faculty:
- Dr. Tom Lee, chair, Biology
- Dr. Kim Pamplin, chair, Chemistry and Biochemistry
- Dr. Diana Flanagan, advisor, Health Professions
- Dr. Cynthia Powell, advisor, Health Professions
Don't just take our word about how amazing our faculty are, read what some of our alumni have to say:
Leslie, pre-med UTSW: In a freshman honors class at Abilene Christian University after I had written a paper, the professor handed it back saying, "You put everyone else's thought and input into it except your very own. Think the concept out. Come up with your own idea. Forget about rules and all that other stuff you were ever taught, and let me hear your own opinion, not everyone else's." I thought, okay, and I guess it worked and I got it right because I ended up with an A in the class. How has this affected me in medical school? We are taught to memorize tons of facts, but we never are really trained to analyze the basis of those facts. Fortunately, there were several professors in the ACU science department that taught me to analyze based on facts. I know there will be times that I will definitely be wrong, but at ACU I learned to form my own opinions and question what I was learning. I have continued this approach, and I am glad that the foundation I received in undergrad is helping me in my medical school training.
Austin, D.D.S: The science classes at ACU more than adequately prepared me for dental school. Dr. Charles Mattis was one of my best mentors. I would never have made it to dental school without his help. He was always encouraging and helped me decide which classes to take to better prepare me for dental school. I have been so happy with my profession.
Kelly, med student Texas A&M College: One subtle advantage that ACU students have is Dr. Reeves' reputation. I went to seven interviews and at most of them I had at least one person comment (upon seeing that I was from ACU) about how good a person Dr. Reeves is and how much they respect him. This reputation, added on by each generation of ACU students, can only help our next set of applicants as they continue on in their pursuit of their dreams.

Concussions - The Basics
Concussions are caused by trauma to the head, inducing alterations in mental status. About 10 percent of concussion victims suffer loss of consciousness.
Concussion symptoms range from a headache and blurred vision to nausea and personality changes. More than 300,000 sports-related concussions occur each year. Recent estimates claim that 10 percent of all high school kids who engage in contact sports will sustain a concussion each year. Almost two-thirds of those concussions occur in football.
Concussion Symptoms and Signs
- Headache
- Blurred vision
- Dizziness
- Loss of balance
- Confusion
- Memory loss (amnesia)
- Ringing ears
- Difficulty concentrating
- Nausea
- Slow to answer questions
- Personality changes
- Aversion to bright lights and loud sounds
What should I watch out for?
You should call your doctor immediately if you have the following concussion symptoms or signs:
- Stiff neck
- Difficulty walking, speaking or using your arms
- Severe headache
- Repeated vomiting
- Confusion that gets worse
- Convulsions
- Unusual sleepiness
What happens if I have suffered a concussion and I do not seek help?
You could suffer a fatal event called "second impact syndrome." This occurs when a second blow to the head, even a minor one, makes your body lose control of blood flow to the brain. More commonly, returning to a sport too soon will put you at increased risk to suffer another or more concussions. Research has shown that multiple concussions have a cumulative effect and can cause permanent problems with memory, processing new information, and even your personality.
Is there any way to prevent concussions?
If you are involved in a contact sport or one in which you might suffer head trauma, wearing a helmet is imperative.
In addition to concussion treatments, Emory Sports Medicine offers computerized neuropsychological testing for sports programs. Used by professional teams in the NFL and NHL, this allows athletes to be tested before the season. If they suffer head trauma while engaged in their sport, an accurate report on their neuropsychological status can be determined.
Emory Sports Medicine is the only sports medicine provider in Atlanta with four physicians specifically trained in the evaluation and management of sports concussions.
If you or someone you know has suffered a sports-related concussion, please contact us at 404-778-3350 for a concussion symptoms test, evaluation and comprehensive treatment plan by one of our sports concussion specialists.

The free Fantapper app (full disclosure: see paid advert nearby) is a cool example of rapidly growing facet of the future of web browsing. There are a variety of apps that touch on this, including apps like Yelp, or Loopt, and other apps that enhance or "augment" web content with face recognition and location-based services. Fantapper, also available as an app for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad, augments browsing by "augmenting" images on your browser, say Brett Favre, with a menu of apps that you can click on to view more content about the athlete or celebrity or musician on Facebook, Yelp, YouTube, or other branded content pages or apps from Sports Illustrated, CNN, Rolling Stone, who knows, or even TMZ. Here's how it works.
Let me be the first to predict, politicians will be all over this app, so they too can be featured content on web pages.
Download Fantapper and install it on your computer. Then start browsing. To see how it works go to a known fan page or news site like NFL.com, or People and start mousing over some of the images. You're likely to see the red Fantapper animation appear over some of the images on the page. Click on the Fantapper logo and a window opens containing the image and a sliding menu of apps that also feature content about Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett Johansson, or your favorite footbal stars and other atheletes.
Fantapper helps fans stay connected with their favorites
Just as interesting is the whole business of getting your stable of celebs hooked into the system so they can be automatically tagged so fantapper can be activated on a huge number of pages across the Internet and build exposure for talent within a growing l;ibrary of apps, as well. See Brand Affinity Technologies to learn more how it works with celebs and brands to embed their messaging into apps. The BAT platform links celebs with content providers. You too, EVEN CANDIDATES, can sign up.

PLANO, Texas - She had no clue what abuse meant when she came to the U.S. two years ago, suddenly a target of her new husband's angry alcoholism.
A South Asian Muslim in her early 40s with dark skin and piercing olive eyes, she's still shaken by the experience, recalling the horror into which she'd unwittingly stepped.
"All I knew was that ." She paused, eyes wet with tears in a quiet meeting room in Plano. "I was getting hit and getting blamed for everything."
Eventually she would find solace in Peaceful Oasis, a shelter for Muslim women fleeing domestic violence. Though the North Texas shelter accepts clients of all faiths, it's focused on the needs of Muslim women who want to feel comfortable following Islamic customs.
"We try to be as helpful and supportive as we can," said Hind Jarrah, executive director of the Plano-based Texas Muslim Women's Foundation, which opened Peaceful Oasis in late 2012. "Our aim is for them to stand on their own."
When foundation leaders asked women in the community what issues needed attention, domestic violence loomed large. More than that, women wanted a shelter with a culturally specific approach.
"When they went to mainstream shelters," Jarrah said, "some said it was as if their identity had been stolen. They preferred to go back to their abusive husbands."
Traditional shelters, they said, posed language barriers and were ill-equipped to meet needs such as a diet free of the pork products that Islam forbids, or a space in which to pray the five times per day that Islam calls for.
"They worried about whether it would be allowed, how it would appear," Jarrah told The Dallas Morning News. "Would it be accepted?"
That's how Peaceful Oasis came to be. About 80 percent of the shelter's clients are Muslim, many of them Asian or Middle Eastern immigrants. Others come from North Texas or even other U.S. states.
For many, response to abusive situations derives from a mix of ingrained culture and religious beliefs - a pattern of behavior trickling through generations until the cycle is broken.
Those who come to Peaceful Oasis, like the Southeast Asian woman in that meeting room in Plano, are taking a step toward breaking that cycle.

Who I Am:
I am the Life Sciences division deputy chief. The division includes:
Two branches that support preparations for experiments that are going
into microgravity in, for example, the Shuttle middeck, Shuttle Spacelab,
Mir, Russian Mir, or International Space Station. The third branch does
research focusing on how to counteract physical intolerance to microgravity
and the effects of microgravity on bone and neural systems. The division
also maintains a suite of centrifuges used for studies of variable gravity,
a human bed-rest facility, a biocomputation center that shows biomedical
changes, and an Animal Care Facility (the only full up facility within
NASA). The division has approximately 65 people and, if you count contractor
support, post doctoral fellows, and students, totals approximately 225
My Career Journey
My education started in microbiology with thoughts of being a lab technician.
After receiving a Public Health Service's scholarship for graduate school,
my horizons broadened to include not only an MS in microbiology, but a
minor in biochemistry. At the same time I picked up a secondary teaching
credential in science.
My first job was with a leading Pharmaceutical company, Eaton Labs/Norwich
Pharmacal. I spent three years there studying how microbial infections
can "ascend" to the kidneys in rodents.
When I came to ARC (NASA's Ames Research Center) in 1963 my first assignment
was to study "extreme" - halophilic (salt-loving) organisms. It was hoped
that these studies would help us understand how to "feed" and sustain
any possible microbial life found during the Mars Viking Mission (1976).
In 1975 we established a test laboratory for Earth-based studies using
TRW hardware units that had not been available to investigators before
that time. Our office then led the studies that supported the eventual
Shuttle Transportation System (STS) Spacelab flights. Part of the excitement
of the job was defining what would be needed in the Life Sciences ground
processing facility (Hangar L at Kennedy Space Center), leading the engineering
effort for developing our Life Sciences Payload Receiving Facility at
the Dryden Flight Research Center, developing scenarios to define the
science support needs for a mission simulation with JSC in 1978, our first
Spacelab participation in Spacelab 3 (1985), and performing the animal
biocompatability studies with the proposed hardware for Shuttle. The first
dedicated Life Sciences Spacelab (SLS-1) was scheduled to fly in 1982;
that finally happened in 1991. I was the ARC Payload Manager for that
flight and subsequently was Payload Manager for SLS-3, which was later
Circa 1982, while supporting development of Spacelab 3, I started working
toward an MBA in Management to support my expanding career direction.
In 1982, I was selected by NASA to attend the Simmons College, Boston,
10-week course in management and in June, 1985, obtained my MBA from Golden
Gate College (while supporting post SL-3 ground studies at KSC).
In 1986 I served on the Space Station Task Force and in 1987 became
Branch Chief for the Operations Branch in the Flight Payloads Office.
This branch later expanded to include both operations and science. In
1996, I was appointed Deputy Division Chief for the Life Sciences Division.
Likes/Dislikes About Career
The positive aspects have been the excitement of developing payloads
for flight, witnessing their launch, and passing specimens on to the investigators
who may provide answers about how gravity shapes our lives.
The negative aspects have been the pressures of management, like: restrictive
budgets, pressures of flight schedules, trying to be sure that all employees
are satisfied, not always being able to do that either because of limited
resources or personnel, and last, the seemingly long time it has taken
to get to this point in management.
Preparation for Career
First, I was raised on a ranch in Montana where I was virtually immersed
in biology, whether watching the wonders of a calf, sheep, or cats giving
birth, or planning the best times for planting crops based on weather,
moisture and soil conditions. Summer days during grade school were spent
reading Silas Marner, Little Women--not close to science. Summer days
during high school were spent helping with harvesting, attending Girl's
State (training in government), and attending Northwestern University
on a music scholarship (and singing Beethoven's 9th at Ravinia in Chicago
under Pierre Monteux). Anything along the business career route was boring,
and teaching was simplistic (that's why picking up a credential was no
big task). Science held challenges and was demanding. I spent my freshman
year in college at Valparaiso, Indiana and transferred back to Montana
for my sophomore year. By the time I was in the first quarter of my senior
year, I had all the credits I needed to graduate, along with a teaching
credential and practice teaching, a scholarship toward graduate school,
and had been working in my professor's laboratory for two years investigating
the biochemistry of "Entamoeba histolytica". Why stop then?
Today--take business courses and learn lots of computer skills along
with science. Don't focus on just biological science or just physical
science. Keep yourself broad-spectrum and expose yourself to as many fields
as possible since many choices change from the ages of 14-21. Sign up
for many things, for example, science programs outside your school (astrobiology
academy, summer college programs) but don't dilute yourself to the point
of losing sight of GOALS. Exposure opens doors.
During my pre-teen years my older brother and only sibling was the most
influential person in my life because of his many talents and knowledge.
I always wanted to be like him (he was an electrical engineer, a fighter
pilot in Korea, an artist in oils and wood working).
In high school, the most influential person in my life was my piano
and voice teacher who taught me to use music as a release from tension
and stress, but also pushed me to my limits.
In college, my sophomore year adviser, on return to Montana State U.,
was the guide toward my pursuit in research. Following my oral exams and
because I expressed interest in joining a government agency (like the
Public Health Service or National Institutes of Health), he left me with
the challenge of how I would limit myself if I did not have a Ph.D. I've
surpassed his challenge, but I DO REGRET not having obtained a Ph. D.
Two summers ago, I was privileged to visit with him, for the first time
in 35 years.
Personal Information
I've always had cats around me. As a youngster, the multidigited cats
around our ranch were taught to hold objects in their paws and were constant
companions. As an adult, I've been able to have Siamese cats, who have
been extremely intelligent and magnificent friends.
I've one daughter (28), who wanted to become a veterinarian because
of her exposure to animals, but realized that chemistry was NOT one of
her best friends. She obtained a degree in Marketing and Advertisement;
worked for Information Week. Since moving to Central California with her
husband of one year, she has been employed at Fess Parker's (Daniel Boone-remember?)
winery. She, too, has cats and has developed an extreme talent in botany.
In fact her fitting email address is Green Thumb.
As for other challenges over the years, I learned to fly in 1978 and
had a pilot's license. I didn't attend formal ground school but taught
myself and received a perfect written score on the Private Pilot's Test.
Because of the pressure of work, I had to discontinue flying after 5 years,
but through that experience gained a new love of amusement park rides
and accompany my husband, who has only flown the past five years, in his
Grummond Tiger four-seater.

We're are using Maple TA 8 at our university. I'm new to Maple TA and I would like to create an assigment with multiple choice questions about JavaScript and HTML. But I found the following problems when creating these MC questions:
1) Using < and > characters aren't allowed in the "Choices for the answers" fields. So I manually have to XML encode text containing these characters. Is there an easier way to do this? I would expect answers to be stored as plain text. Shouldn't this be encoded automatically by Maple TA when rendering the questions?
2) I have a similar problem with the "Text of the question" field. Using the text "<b>fsdafsd</b>" result in the text being evaluated/rendered as HTML instead of as "text", even I first XML encode it and edit it in the source.
So is there a way to put plain text (containing HTML) in these fields without the fields being rendered as HTML instead?

OREGON CITY -- Detective Sgt. Bill Kler has been promoted to lieutenant by Police Chief Mike Conrad.
Kler, a 13-year Oregon City Police Department veteran, will take the place of Lt. Lisa Nunes, who is retiring May 31. He will assume Nunes' duties overseeing support functions for the department and will serve as public information officer. Lt. Jim Band will continue overseeing operations.
Kler, 44, a Milwaukie native, has spent his entire law enforcement career in Oregon City. He began as an officer and worked his way up to detective, sergeant and detective sergeant.
Conrad said Kler will start working directly with Nunes to ensure the smoothest possible transition before she retires.

Aside from my blue-crowned conure, CooCoo; my blue-fronted Amazon, Radar; two African greys, Muggsy and Mitch; and the third grey that I just adopted in October, Phinneas; our flock includes Tiki, an umbrella cockatoo; a lesser sulphur-crested cockatoo, Spike; and a Moluccan cockatoo, Cupid. There are also my blue-and-gold macaws, Morgan, JJ and Boo; my scarlet macaw, Renee; and the green-wing macaw siblings, Molly and McMurphy. That rounds out the flock, which happily lives with my husband, Ray, and I here in the Ohio Valley.
Life with the flock is like running a daycare center. From the time I get up in the morning, I am busy nonstop. But it is also a lot of fun keeping them entertained. I love taking care of them.
It brightens my morning when I open the blinds behind Molly and McMurphy's cage and watch them run to look out the window saying, "Look, look outside!" and "I see a birdie outside." By the time all the blinds are open and the birds are awake, I hear a chorus of "I'm hungry." The rush to fill the dishes for my hungry birds begins!
Pellets make up most of their diet. Along with that is a small amount of seed with dried fruits, veggies and nuts mixed in that I keep readily available. Birds also need things like fresh fruits and vegetables. They also eat other healthy human foods like a bean, rice or veggie mash, plus the birdie bread I regularly bake for them. I know they enjoy my labor of love when I hear contented sounds like, "Ummmmmm" or "I like it" emanating from the direction where they eat.
I have read that birds do not have a good sense of taste. Well, you could have fooled me, since my birds get all excited and ask over and over, "Is it good?" when they see my husband and I eating our food. They sure know how to put a guilt trip on me to coax me into giving them they're birdie-sized taste!
On an e-mail list where I share pictures of my birds, members seem surprised that my woodwork and furniture is intact with so many large parrots around. They assume I know some secret that I won't share since their birds have chewed and redecorated much of their woodwork. I have to laugh. I guess I am just lucky. I do have some damage, but it is minimal and doesn't show up that much. My birds stay in their play areas for the most part, and I keep them far enough away from walls, doorways and woodwork. They are not on the furniture unless I am there to watch them, except when I take pictures of them perched on the back of a chair. (By the way, be sure to pick up your new copy of the 2009 BIRDS USA annual to see who won first place in the "It's Good To Be A Bird" category!)
They can be quick to use that big beak to do some redesigning, but it's usually easily touched up! Also, I make it a point to take pictures when the house is cleaned up. But after my birds are out for a short time, believe me it shows! Once they are back in their cages, there is much cleaning to be done yet again. And since I'd much rather have money available for bird food, toys, etc., not to mention any unexpected veterinarian trips; I keep those big beaks away from my computer.

The Perilous Journey of the Donner Partyby Marian Calabro
On April 14, 1846, the Donner Party set out from Springfield, Illinois, in search of a better life in the largely unsettled California territory. The trip started well but eventually questionable choices and infighting delayed the pioneers' attempt to cross the Sierra Nevada until winter. As the impassable snows closed in and their supplies dwindled to nothing, the group faced an almost hopeless struggle for survival that would push some toward the final taboo of cannibalism. Nearly half the members of the Donner Party were children. This account, filled with selections from the survivors' letters and diaries, focuses on the children's experiences, making it uniquely compelling and accessible to young readers.

CBNNews.com - LOS ANGELES - Google Inc.'s YouTube said Thursday it is vastly expanding its library of full-length movies and TV shows it offers online, while also launching a new advertising service and adding about a dozen new content partners.
The long-form videos will be housed on a unique page and get a "Shows" tab on the main YouTube site.
The offering, which went live late Thursday, marks a further departure from the fuzzy homemade clips that made the Web site popular and is the latest move in YouTube's attempt to boost sales and profits.
Last week, YouTube announced it was teaming up with Universal Music Group to create an online music video venture.
"It's a first step in a long commitment," said Shiva Rajaraman, a YouTube senior product manager, in a conference call with reporters.
Mostly Older Films, TV Shows at Start
The company hopes to add to its movie and show content over time. The titles available at launch are mostly older fare that are already available elsewhere on the Web. It will offer for free hundreds of TV show titles including "Beverly Hillbillies" and "Married With Children," and hundreds of movies, including "Casino Royale" and "Cliffhanger."
The service expands on YouTube's existing partnership with several studios, whose parents include Sony Corp., Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., CBS Corp., Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. and Liberty Media Corp.
On Thursday it also announced new partnerships with 13 smaller companies such as Discovery Communications Inc., National Geographic and SnagFilms LLC.
Advertising revenue will be shared with the content providers.
The news came on the same day Mountain View-based Google said it earned $1.42 billion, or $4.49 per share, in the first quarter, up 9 percent from a year ago.
2008 Revenue Estimated at $200M
Google bought YouTube for $1.76 billion in late 2006 but it hasn't emerged as a major marketing vehicle and the company does not disclose its revenue figures. Analysts have estimated its revenue in 2008 at around $200 million.
On Thursday, YouTube spokesman Chris Dale simply said a recent analyst estimate that said the site lost $500 million a year was "factually incorrect" and said its performance was better.
As a way to bolster its ad revenue, YouTube also announced it is launching Google TV Ads Online, which will help advertisers target viewers of online content with video ads.
Single video ads are planned to be inserted in scheduled breaks in shows and movies, Rajaraman said. Sometimes the ads will be sold by Google and sometimes by the content providers.
Certain content providers also provide their own video players, such as Sony's Crackle.com player, which will be embedded in the YouTube site.
Crackle.com has 60 movies on its site, but will be offering only 15 at time through the partnership. For example, "Groundhog Day," initially will not be shared, as Sony managers intend to use YouTube's large audience to help drive traffic to Crackle.com.

>Jeremy Irons
"I'VE NEVER WORRIED TOO MUCH about whether the audience liked me or not," says Jeremy Irons, 49. That's an understatement; but after a career playing sickos (Dead Ringers), psychos (Die Hard with a Vengeance) and the just plain weird (his Oscar-winning turn in Reversal of Fortune), why would he play the good priest Aramis in The Man in the Iron Mask? The location didn't hurt. "You always get good dinner when you get back from a day of shooting in Paris," Irons laughs. But director Randall Wallace says Irons was ideal because of his "brooding intelligence and the sense that more is going on there that he is not letting everyone else see."
In the film, Irons displays his equestrian skills: Offscreen he's an accomplished horseman, not to mention an avid motorcyclist. He also got to work with Leonardo DiCaprio, whom Irons calls "an extraordinary young boy. He wasn't allowing any of the adulation to affect him. He knows that [fame] is a very transient thing."
Next up for Irons, who lives near London with his wife, actress Sinead Cusack, 50 (Stealing Beauty), is another art-house role in Chinese Box, about China's takeover of Hong Kong. Irons might be a superstar if he had played James Bond, a part he was considered for around 1980. But heroes aren't for him. For instance, "Macbeth," he says, "is a terrible man! But it's a great role, and that's what I go for."

Sixth in a series of 13
THE NBA itself proclaimed the 1966-67 NBA champion 76ers the greatest team ever. And there were no arguments, it was that obvious. With four Hall of Fame players and a future Hall of Fame coach, a dynasty seemed a foregone conclusion.
But piece by piece, the team fell apart. Five years later, the 76ers were out of the playoffs and a year later, they were the worst team ever.
How did it go so bad so quickly?
"If I was giving you my assessment," said Ted Kosloff, the son of Sixers owner Irv Kosloff, "cutting costs and trying to run the business more profitably might have been a mistake."

Samsung heads to the street to challenge the Apple iPhone with the Samsung GALAXY Note LTE
0. phoneArena 23 Feb 2012, 05:18 posted on
A real live Apple iPhone user is "jealous" and "embarrassed" as the Samsung GALAXY Note LTE can do things that her phone can't thanks to the S Pen that allows GALAXY Note LTE owners to edit pictures and do things that those using the iPhone can't do...

I get downvoted for telling the truth. Am I lying? Is apple not breaking records?
23. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
your connotation is wrong. Apple is breaking sales records because it has made 1 new device in 18 months. What do you think android's sales would be if it was just 1 device every 18 months? Android more than double's apple's sales world wide. What do u think the i4s's sales would be like if there was an option for an iOS with a 4 or 4.3 inch screen. Do you really think the little 3.5inch with a 2 year old design would stand a chance?
Apple is indeed setting single device sales records, but comparing that to an android handset is a misnomer. An android handset has 30 something other handsets to compete with if you want android. If you want a top end iOS phone, you have zero choice but to get the i4s.
All that, and samsung is still beating apple in the last 2 quarters, even with the i4s release, and even with having to compete within its own OS for sales.
29. greathero1 (Posts: 565; Member since: 13 Jun 2008)
I think you are still missing the point. Just give props for them breaking the records. Stop trying to find some excuse to downplay their accompllishment. Its that easy lol.
34. Tre-Nitty (Posts: 468; Member since: 16 Nov 2010)
I agree. He can't do it because he's obsessed with hating apple. Apple is a powerhouse. They make one phone a year and it continues to dominate. Samsung is a awesome company, especially the TV department but give apple its props.
31. Tre-Nitty (Posts: 468; Member since: 16 Nov 2010)
Question, why do you care so much about what Samsung does? BTW, Samsung is beating apple in the last 2 qtrs you say. Hmmm, they release a phone once a week, on every single carrier. Shouldn't they be beating apple. I wish Samsung would release one phone day and date with apple and see what happens. Samsung phones hold zero value. For instance the overhyped gs2 can be bought off Amazon or eBay for about $300. Good luck finding a iPhone 4 let alone a 4s for that amount. You get to emotional about a company you hold no interest in other than fanboyism.
36. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
oh, that old arguement. amazing when gallito tried the same thing i went to this magic place called ebay, and saw the average sale price of the sgs2 was about 30 bux higher than the i4s.. which is a newer phone.
quit talking out your butt and do research before u speak.
i hold no emotions for samsung, which is completely unlike you crazed isheap. samsung is a company that makes devices. for now, they are devices i want because they are the best around. i dont worship its owner, and i dont have a loyalty to them. and unlike iSheapies, when samsung steps in poop, i call them on it instead of giving them a pass because they make my phone.
41. Tre-Nitty (Posts: 468; Member since: 16 Nov 2010)
Go look it up. IPhone 4s is going for 500 to 600.
47. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
600 is the full retail.
iphone 4s 16 gig
Used average price : 489.99
SGS2 i9100 16 gig
used average price : 559.99
I know you ibots have a hard time with math, but thats $70 higher price on the SGS2 which is nearly a year old at this point
And looking at the first page on the i4s used, most of them are going between 250-350.
Looking at the first page of the SGS2, most of them are going between 320 and 450.

I think this comparo that you did only tells half the truth. Compare the prices of unlocked versions and you will see the price dramatically changes. The unlocked status inflates the price on both models but you only gave us a comparo of a batch of ATT versions while the unlocked version for the GS2. I know this as a former ATT customer who purchased unlocked phones regularly. See the link below.
pcategid=9355&_pcatid=801&_trk sid=p5360.c0.m2000019
Unlocked prices for iPhone far exceeds the SG2. New iPhone is at $759 and used is at $700.

what moron would pay for that? you can walk into an apple store and buy an unlocked one for 650 bux new.
Im talking what people in the US would pay, not someone in Brazil who gets massively over charged to where 700 bux would seem like a deal.
se/home/shop_iphone/family/iph one/iphone4s
the first iphone4s unlocked on the list has 65 bids on it and is only going for $465 after so many bids. I really dont see your point.
81. greathero1 (Posts: 565; Member since: 13 Jun 2008)
Okay, then use the prices of the carrier branded phones for the SG2 then. Simple. If you are giving me the price of 1 device which is unlocked with an inflated price, why not for the other?
90. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
because the cost of the unlocked SGS2 is still less than its full retail. it is not "inflated" like the iphone4s price that you were trying to quote which was higher than what apple charges for a factory unlocked iphone. That and like i said, the next iphone bid that was about to expire had tons of bids and was only in the 400s, nowhere near the 700 that you tried to quote.
Both prices quoted were for unlocked phones to begin with. you are just trying to dilute the issue with inflated pricing that not a single person would pay in america.

"Hmmm, they release a phone once a week, on every single carrier. Shouldn't they be beating apple." They are beating Apple, look at Android's market share.

Lol! Android fans on here are rabid! But you have to admit, this phone is very interesting. A little too big for most, but for certain powerusers, this thing is going to be great!

That video made my day. There just isn't any reasoning with some I fans or fandroids. I think I'll lay off the comments for a while. I get sick of repeatedly making all the android points only to hear the same iOS excuses. Its old. I know what os i prefer.

@Tre-Nitty...I think you got down voted because you attacked not only the presentation, but the participants in the presentation. The Galaxy Note demonstrated featues that the iPhone could not, or does not have yet you discredit Samsung for implementing features in their product, and you discredit and disparage the young lady using the iphone.
This article is not about Apple breaking records; it is about a demonstration of features implemented in a product.
26. wentworth (Posts: 5; Member since: 05 Feb 2012)
This video is totally dumb. The lady doesn't even try to do anything, she just opens her mouth and talks nonsense. And I agree with the term "casual smartphone user". I know tons of people who have iphones and samsung galaxy s2 just for being the top smartphone in the market, and not because of the features. As a matter of fact most of those people only use their smartphones to send whatsapp messages and check their facebook. THERE ARE casual smartphone users, and believe it or not, they have galaxy S2 too, not only iphones.
In this vid, the guy clearly is an advance smartphone user, so the duel is not valid. I would like to see some of the people "who gets in line to buy the iphone the first day" to be challenged by this guy. The result would've been totally different. But, then that would've ruin the whole spirit of the Samsung ad.

galaxy note ad was great...they should have shown that at the Superbowl..we need more ads like that from Android oems and none of the silly it has quad etc...people who care about specs are people like us who will do there research into a phone spec and dont need to be told by ads what the specs are where as the "normal" people just need to be shown what it can do and a reason to buy other than specs.

What most of you keep over and over failing to realize, is that not everyone is a power user. Not all need a super ( PHONE) . I myself use an Alienware M17x laptop. I play games and consider myself a power user. Think about it, how many people have a computer like mine compared to just going to Walmart and spending 4 or 500 dollars for a basic laptop. Would you say maybe millions of people? Why? Simplicity !
I would, that is how Microsoft Windows became so famous. A Mac computer was to confusing for the masses. The majority of people use Windows at work and it is simple for most to use after a short training period. They take that learning experience home and use it on the family computer and all is well.
This is the same experience the masses experience with the iphone, again just one reason, simplicity. If you do research, or read some, you will find most people just want a phone that works when they need it and maybe a few perks like check email or chat on Facebook. " Not root the phone or play with widgets."
So for power hungry Android Fans want to have quadruple this and that, more power to you. Stay with your Android system and let the masses have a phone they want. A simple, easy to use iphone that will last a long time and reatin it's resale value when it comes time to upgrade.
Oh, I have both systems. An iphone 4 and a samsung skyrocket galaxy 2. So I am not picking on either side.

Thank you for pointing this out... WELL SAID...
The thing is the people in here want to see Apple fall... you can feel their emotion in the way they word their comments.
There wont be any common ground with iSh$$p or DroidSh$$p, both will always see it one way...
its funny because there are A LOT of intellegent and well educated tech guys in here but plagued by hate and negativity.
I like the Galaxy Note and the iPhone 4S
this ad will effect and win over the people who own iphones that would love to perform those tasks... all other "casual users" dont give a care...
Good Job Samsung...

Very true. The iphone is simple to use and a pretty good gadget at that but the problem relies on i phone users bragging about how ios is better than android and that the iphone is better than android phones. If Iphone users would not go about it the wrong way there wouldn't be so many Iphone haters. Let's just be honest and call it how we see it. If all the Iphone power users could even begin to understand android they would not be talking $hit on every article that comes out and would definitely make the change. I also believe that users that find android too complicated should pick up an iphone to make their lives simple.
Im not an apple hater, actually I love my macbook, but i know im not the only one that hates it when someone pulls out an iphone thinking that the have the best phone on the planet when it actually in my opinion it would be top mid tier.
51. REYNER (Posts: 187; Member since: 10 Feb 2012)
that was a good advertisement! what makes android a better pick against ios is that the platform gives what people would like to have accessibility ,hassle free and complete control to their phones. if there is an issue in android that has to be the malware issue hopefully it will be gone soon.
ios in the other hand makes the platform easy to use and uniform,. the safe feeling in downloading apps and the tons of apps. my only problem with ios is the compatibility with other devices it was too unified, and the interface is getting boring now a days. they also seems quite behind with the enhancement such as with the video. luckily they have a solid fan base. but too bad most of them are too narrow minded.
windows phone is yet to come their full evolution will be witness this year onwards the feel of it makes tells it all i also heard that this os will be doing a hybrid like ios and android in their windows 8 we will see they need to catch up faster...

Bull. By this logic,we are all only casual users of our own brains,since we don't use it to 100% of its capability. Apple got taken down then Android put it in a rear naked choke,where it was forced to tap out. Eat it,Apple. That's Droid-Jitsu for you!!!

didn't bother to read the comments.. don't need to.. I have heard them before... Samsung is desperate trying to make people interest in that big phone... I it hasn't been that big of a hit on ATT, the Nexus is a better phone than the Note... is a Samsung commercial,..what did you expect?.. nice try Samsung... but here in the States. Apple rules...

74. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Don't know if I agree with that "here in the states...Apple rules" line, but it does very well. But this isn't any desperate attempt at anything. This is a couple guys who have designed a test, to show off the Note's best features. Not really a test that compares the two feature by feature. If they were compared feature by feature, the iPhone would probably best any Android 6 out of 10. Ex: Better camera, fastest shutter speed, faster browser... But Android has more features. It can do a lot more than the iPhone can do. No matter how many iPhones are sold, how many records they break, or how simple and smooth the iOS user experience is... It will ALWAYS be second best as long as Android exist, and Steve Jobs knew it even if the iOS fans won't admit it!

Following the release of the A-Level results last week it was the turn of GCSE students to enjoy their day of reckoning this Tuesday.
The London-based Jewish school that achieved the best GCSE results was Immanuel College, with six pupils achieving 10 A* and A grades. These were Aryeh Dworkin, Ben Baruch, Joseph Grant, Eitan Lovatt, Darren Vanning and Darrel Bernstein.
In total 56 per cent of its students got A* or As. Head Master Philip Skelker said: "These results reflect the aptitude, determination and effort of our pupils. I am delighted by their well-deserved success."
The other major Jewish schools that sat GCSEs; King Solomon, Hasmonean and JFS all performed above the national average.
Last Thursday's A-level results saw an impressive array of top grades achieved by students at Jewish schools. The biggest secondary school in Europe, JFS, saw nearly half of its students return A* or A grades. A total of 12 pupils achieved at least three A* grades – introduced for the first time at A-level this year.
Head teacher Jonathan Miller said: "The high number of top grades is testament to the hard work and commitment of our students. We are very proud of all of them."
Immanuel College also got the highest scores at A-level, with 51 per cent of results A* or A. Immanuel student James Fields, who secured an A*, A and A is reading economics at Manchester University. He said: "I am so happy, and relieved. You never know how you've done. I will be opening the champagne later."
Classmate Ashleigh Taylor, who secured and A*, A and B, is going to Nottingham Trent to study Fashion, Marketing and Branding, said: "I am so shocked I can hardly breathe. I can't believe it – I am so happy."
There was also success for Hasmonean, which recorded joint results for the boys' and girls' schools. A total of 20 per cent of its pupils got straight A* and As.
Executive teacher Rabbi David Meyer said: "These results reflect the hard work and dedication of our students. As our children devote so much time to work in the community and Jewish studies learning their results are to be especially commended."
Yavneh College, only established in 2006, doesn't have any sixth-formers of its own, but opened a small sixth-form for students who wanted to join from other schools.
Dr Dena Coleman, the head teacher, said: "We are delighted they have done so well with us."
Head teacher for King Solomon, Spencer Lewis, said: "The vast majority of students did even better than expected, winning places at some of the best universities in the country. I am proud of all our students, but in particular the five who got all A* and A."
One of its star students, Melinda Martin, who achieved three A* grades, has won a place at Birmingham University next month to study Childhood, Culture and Education.
"I worked so hard and am really happy that all the hard work paid off," said the 18-year-old.Top marks for Jewish schools by James Marin

Had this idea before, really hope other have too.
Im up for contributing.
Edit: oops, you only want women. Last time i checked this counts me out
What I've been noticing here is that when a person either fails to lose weight or plateaus, they get about 20 different opinion/solutions to their problem. Which is good, because not everyone's body responds in the same way to different protocols, but still, it's confusing.
Also, a lot of the studies we look to to answer questions re: what is the best way of eating come from studies that are already biased toward the SAD, and so the results don't necessarily apply to us primal folks.
So, what do you guys think about this:
Let's divide into groups and test different ways of eating. I'm just throwing this out there, I don't have any specific plan in mind (we can discuss it in this thread, if anyone is actually interested in this), but maybe something like this: Lets say we have 30 women willing to participate who are between 30-40, and have 10-30 lbs to lose. Half of these women will volunteer to do an (for instance) IF protocol, something pretty specific as to calories/times whatever, and the other half will do something else. We'd need to keep other variables fairly small. 'Cause this is science, y'all. And then we could report back in 6 weeks or whatever. And we could do different things with different groups of people. We could make it an experiment of the month club, or something.
Obviously, this isn't going to get published on pubmed or anything, but hell, I think it would be interesting.
Anyone interested? Any ideas to contribute?

sure, i'm in. maybe if we get enough participants...
my primal journal:
Well...whats to stop the same protocol runnig for Male......Count me in too...
And of course you'll include a control group that doesn't change what they're eating, just in case simply doing something different is all that's needed? Of course you will.

A federal grand jury has indicted a man who state troopers and federal agents say was smuggling at least 6 pounds of methamphetamine through Carson County.
Joseph William Wolfe, 41, of Boston was indicted last week in U.S. District Court in Amarillo. He faces a charge of possession with the intent to distribute methamphetamine.
Texas Department of Public Safety troopers arrested Wolfe and Benjamin Chont , 20, of Providence, R.I., during a routine traffic stop Aug. 20.
Both were initially charged with felony possession of a controlled substance after troopers say they located 3,662.46 grams - or 8 pounds - of methamphetamine under the rear floorboard and in luggage in the trunk after the men consented to a search.
The stash was valued at $300,000.
According to the federal complaint filed by a DEA agent, Wolfe and Chont had flown to Phoenix, rented the car in which the drugs allegedly were found, and were on their way back to Boston.
The federal complaint alleges that approximately 6 pounds of "a white crystal substance" was found.
Both men were booked into the Carson County Jail where Chont posted $40,000 bond, and Wolfe was transferred to federal custody.
Wolfe has since posted a $50,000 bond and been allowed to return to Boston, but according to court paperwork dated Monday, he has been ordered to return to Amarillo for a hearing Tuesday.

You just have to be dedicated. Extremely dedicated. Not just going to the gym but possibly sacraficing your job, barely getting by on your bills, losing your family(if you have one) etc etc.
Thats what it take to get into Pro-Boxing at an older age. When your young, you have opportunities and dont have to worry much about getting food on the table and what not. When your older, those luxuries go away. And you really have to go nose to the grindstone.
It's possible to get 10 fights in a year(if your not too hurt after fights). If you go 10-0 in all those fights. It's possible to start getting some real recognition. Once you go 18 fights (hopefully 18-0) you will get title shots. OPBF, IBF type titles shots. And from there where you really want to be (WBC, WBO, WBA blah blah blah). And it literally can be done within 2-3 years but you have to be crazy talented and be able to go undefeated for quite some time, also fighting all over the world.

Archie Moore was still fighting until he hit 50, and kept training long after he quit fighting professionally. People live longer now and have the chance to live healthier.
For me boxing has become a way of life. I'll never fight pro. I'll probably never fight amateur. But I love backyard boxing and sparring. For me it's more about the journey than a destination.
EDIT: and it gives me a good reason to stay in shape

To answer your question, no you're not too old to start boxing. But if you're gonna do it, don't do it half ass. That's how people get hurt. You know, i might have met you. You're from the bay no? SF area?

I believe it is better to ask is:
How fast can a very late starter go pro in boxing?
Notwithstanding any amateur requirements which may apply officially or unofficially in any given state, I would DESTROY any cruiserweight pitted against me after 4 months of rigorous training, & likewise any1 else pitted against me every 2 weeks to a month thereafter"." If only I could find a trainer & manager. That's the MF'n TRUTH"."
Also a short while back, a 52 year old male made a Pro-Debut after being exonerated of murder.

Nope not too old, like many others have said age is not a barrier, 32 is a good age it is considered late to turn pro but again no reason why not if you are good enough.
If you have a few amateurs fights you will soon know if you are fit, strong, hungry enough to want to box and want to win. Heart's got to be init.
