Welcome to the film study from the LSU-South Carolina game, where LSU went from a 98-pound weakling against Florida to a regular Charles Atlas of college football Saturday with its 23-21 victory. To say LSU got physical with the Gamecocks would be putting it mildly.
The Tigers beat up the Gamecocks, running right at them on offense and attacking with vigor on defense. Here's an indication that it was all part of the game plan: fullback J.C. Copeland played 59 of the 78 snaps and tight end Chase Clement 67. Those guys don't tiptoe through the tulips, they are in the game to knock people down.
There was no spreading out the defense, just downhill running. Against Florida, LSU ran its three-wide out set 15 plays and last week only three. LSU did go to four wides on seven occasions but played two or more tight ends for 32 snaps and one fullback for 65 snaps.
Copeland had a great night knocking down just about every Gamecock that got in his way. LSU backs continually broke tackles and guard La'El Collins had 10 knockdown blocks. Zach Mettenberger was scattershot with his passing but connected on some key third-down throws to keep the chains moving.
Given the offensive struggles of the previous three weeks and the offensive line troubles, LSU took a major step forward Saturday and regained its mojo.
Player of the Game
Jeremy Hill
At the start of camp, fans wondered why Miles didn't automatically talk about Hill as a redshirt. Now we know. He looked like the team's best back Saturday and part of that might be fresh legs. He runs as hard as Spencer Ware, but with more speed and a little better vision.
He showed that on his first TD run. The play started toward left guard but the hole developed at left tackle. Hill moved forward with RG Trai Turner pulling in front of him and with a nifty shift of his feet stepped to the left behind fullback Connor Neighbors. TE Nic Jacobs, with help from Josh Dworaczyk, drove DE Jadeveon Clowney inside while Clement walled off LB DeVonte Holloman outside.
South Carolina LB Reginald Bowens came in low and met Hill in the hole but Hill ran through his tackle and followed Neighbors, who knocked CB Jimmy Legree out of the way. Hill had a head of steam as safety D.J. Swearinger tried to grab him from behind at the 2 but Hill made a great stretch with the ball and planted it on the goal line for the score. Hill really put on a show with his other scoring run (see below).
Offensive Play of the Game
Hill's 50-yard touchdown run to give LSU a 23-14 lead in the fourth quarter.
At this point, South Carolina's defense was saying "no mas." It was tired and had had enough. LSU was set up in an I-formation with the tight ends Clement and Jacobs stacked on the right side next to freshmen Turner and Vadal Alexander, who were starting at guard and tackle, respectively.
Hill took the pitch and La'El Collins pulled from left guard in front of him. Turner and Alexander double-teamed DT Byron Jerideau while Clement and Jacobs did the same to end Devin Taylor. Hill stayed behind Collins, who got a shoulder on LB Shaq Wilson coming from the left and then blasted Swearinger downfield. Copeland set the edge by picking off Holloman.
Wilson got his hands on Hill at the line but that's all. Hill went forward through the hole and then cut left to avoid Victor Hampton coming up from the secondary. He found Clowney on his tail so he cut back to the right between Hampton and SS Brison Williams in front of him, and exploded with speed South Carolina likely never saw on game tape. Hampton appeared to have a shot and reached out at the 25-yard line but only got a hand on his back. Legree made a desperation dive at the 15-yard line but came up empty.
Defensive Play of the Game
Eric Reid's interception to set up LSU's go-ahead field goal.
LSU had stopped South Carolina most of the night but hadn't yet forced a turnover. The Tigers didn't exactly force this one but it's all the same, isn't it?
South Carolina QB Connor Shaw took a shotgun snap, faked a handoff to Marcus Lattimore and rolled to his right looking for TE Rory Anderson. He had lined up on the right of the formation and crossed the field at an angle to the left. As Shaw rolled to that side, LSU LB Lamin Barrow moved up toward Shaw, out of his zone area, leaving Anderson wide open.
Shaw, a right-hander, tried to square his shoulder and throw, but sailed the ball far over Anderson's head at the 40-yard line, and right into Reid's arms at midfield. As soon as he released it, Shaw knew what was going to happen and he jumped into the air in disgust.
Reid returned the ball 29 yards before he was overtaken by Bruce Ellington and tackled from behind. He was shaken up on the play because Ellington landed on top of him and Reid fell on the ball, aggravating a previous contusion caused when he fell on a teammate's cleat.
Special teams play of the game
Michael Ford turned what looked like a disaster into nice field position with a 28-yard kickoff return.
South Carolina had just taken a 14-10 lead with 5:02 left in the third quarter and kicker Adam Yates kicked off short. But Ford completely misjudged the ball and had to field it on a high bounce at the 7-yard line. By that time South Carolina had five players within 13 yards of Ford and he looked trapped.
Ford took a couple of steps forward to the 9 and then cut to the left trying to turn the corner, which with his speed was doable. Corey Thompson worked his way back and picked off two defenders who were right behind Ford at the 14-yard line as he turned upfield. Jarvis Landry screened off two more as Ford ran by.
Akeem Aguste was coming hard from Ford's right, and Ford cut inside him at the 25 while Deion Jones avoided a block in the back. Quin Smith finally caught Ford from the right and if he hadn't, Ford might have gone the distance. Yates was the last man after Smith but Nic Jacob blindsided him with a brutal, but legal, block by slipping around in front of him just enough.
Oops play
South Carolina's T.J. Gurley wiped out a chunk of Ace Sander's 50-yard punt return with a personal foul for blocking Luke Muncie out of bounds.
The two players plus another Gamecock got locked up in a block and almost missed the whole return. They careened toward the sideline and as Sanders worked his way back upfield Gurley continued blocking Muncie while he was out of bounds.
Gurley's efforts were wasted as Muncie sprinted across the field to make the tackle at the LSU 39. Instead of getting the ball there, South Carolina started its drive at its 46-yard line.
Ouch play
Tharold Simon and Lamin Barrow collide on South Carolina pass reception.
Shaw rolled to the right and TE Justice Cunningham, who was lined up on the right, ran across the field to the left toward Barrow in a zone. When Barrow moved deeper, Cunningham cut upfield and when Barrow saw Shaw throwing he hustled back.
Cunningham made a leaping catch at the 12-yard line and Barrow jumped too late. Simon, coming from the end zone, also went for the hit but Cunningham passed between the two defenders and they collided hard. The 232-pound Barrow got up unfazed but the 193-pound Simon lay on the ground for several moments out of bounds. He felt that one.
Quarterback report
Everyone might remember the interception Mettenberger threw to set up South Carolina's first touchdown but the junior signal-caller had a solid game. There were no major mental gaffes or penalties.
His best stat on a night when he completed 11 of 25 passes for 148 yards was his third-down ratio. Mettenberger was 5-of-9 passing on third down for 82 yards. That helped keep some LSU drives alive and the defense off the field. After having three passes batted down at the line of scrimmage, Mettenberger had a few misfires that went high.
The interception was a play they had run several times before with success. This time CB Jimmy Legree read the play and jumped the route. LSU was in a two-wide receiver set, both to the right with Odell Beckham Jr. in the slot and Kadron Boone wide.
Legree was 8 yards off Boone and Swearinger moved up on Beckham at the snap. Beckham ran a bubble route to the sideline and Boone ran a slant. But before Boone made his cut, Legree was breaking to the spot where the ball was going to be delivered. Boone should have adjusted his route and stayed in front of Legree to at least collide with him and prevent the interception, but he went behind Legree and it was off to the races. Credit Hill for running down Legree at the 2-yard line.
Mettenberger cost LSU a TD and himself a TD pass when he overthrew Landry on the Tigers' third possession. On second-and-10 from the 15, Landry faked a slant and Legree bit, looking for another pick, and Landry angled toward the flag. Swearinger was coming over from safety but was way late and Mettenberger short-armed the ball, throwing it far over Landry's head.
Later in the game in the fourth quarter, Mettenberger had a chance to throw a fade to Nic Jacobs on third-0and-goal at the Gamecock 3-yard line. But he threw the ball so far out of bounds, Jacobs didn't even think about jumping.
Mettenberger showed poise when he waited for Landry to come open against a zone defense for a 16-yard completion on third-and-5. He looked left for Beckham going deep and when Terrence Magee pulled his man to the outside, it opened up a hole in the zone and Mettenberger delivered the ball through a tight window.
He made another slant throw to Landry on second-and-13 to keep a field-goal drive alive. His arm strength also allowed him to throw a 10-yard dart to James Wright on second-and-13 to make third down more manageable.
On one incompletion, Mettenberger showed better pocket awareness. Clowney got loose and was coming from Mettenberger's back side. He felt the pressure and stepped up in the pocket a half step and was able to throw an incomplete pass rather than taking a sack. South Carolina went into the game with an SEC-leading 25 sacks and got only one. The sack was probably Mettenberger's fault.
J.C. Copeland did a poor job picking up a blitzing Shaq Wilson. Mettenberger stepped up in the pocket as Wilson went around the back and instead of throwing the ball away - it was first down -- Mettenberger tried to turn and run away from the line of scrimmage and ran right into Wilson.
Call of the game
How confident was Les Miles in the running game? With LSU trailing 14-0 in the fourth quarter, he called a straight-ahead running play to Spencer Ware on third-and-6 at the South Carolina 43 -- and the Tigers picked up the first down. This was gutsy.
The Tigers were in a three-wide receiver set with Russell Shepard to the left. Shepard motioned toward the ball and Mettenberger faked a speed sweep handoff to him going to the right. Ware was on Mettenberger's right and Clement off the line next to Alexander.
Clement went left and RG Trai Turner pulled to lead Ware to the left. Turner blocked Clowney and Clement pulverized Chaz Sutton to open up a big hole for Ware. But he still had work to do. Hampton tried to fill the hole at the 40 but Ware simply ran right through him and got 4 more yards to get the first down with 1 to spare.
Clowning Clowney
LSU took some of the starch out of Clowney's aggressiveness with two first quarter screen passes to his side that worked because of him coming hard on a pass rush.
On third-and-4, Hill at FB swung out to the left on a screen pattern to influence the South Carolina linebackers that way. Ware chipped Clowney, who was otherwise unblocked, and Dworaczyk and P.J. Lonergan moved forward to set up the wall. As Clowney rushed, Mettenberger side-armed the ball to Ware, who showed great burst upfield. Dworaczyk blocked and Lonergan blocked Wilson and Bowens to the left, while Collins knocked DT Byron Jerideau to the right. Ware got 10 extra yards as he ran through a tackle by Holloman.
Later on third-and-10, Clowney ran a stunt inside as Aldrick Foreman went outside, and Mettenberger flipped a screen to the left to Hill for 21 yards. Dworaczyk and Collins moved quickly out in front of Hill and Dworaczyk destroyed Hampton to the outside while James Wright's crack back block knocked out Holloman to the inside.
In the second quarter, Clowney took a hard inside rush and Hilliard read that and followed Copeland off tackle. Copeland crushed Bowens in the hole while Clement kicked Holloman outside. Hilliard ran through Swearinger's tackle and got 14 yards.
Lattimore . . . or less
Marcus Lattimore went into the game averaging 90 yards per game and has been hard to stop for three seasons. But LSU stayed in front of him and never allowed him to get up a head of steam to hold him to 35 yards rushing on 13 carries. It was the fourth smallest yardage total of his 27-game career and fifth fewest carries for a guy averaging 20.3 carries per game.
Nine of those 13 carries went for 2 yards or fewer and Lattimore didn't run the ball in the fourth quarter. That's the time he's usually salting the game away for the Gamecocks. He got ball on third and short yardage three times and failed to get first down each time.
He did use excellent second effort to barely squeeze out a first down on a fourth-and-2 play and his 2-yard touchdown run in the third quarter was classic Lattimore. The middle was plugged so he went outside to the left and Eric Reid came up in for a textbook tackle at the legs, which would have had him for a 2-yard loss. But Lattimore bulled through it, put his hand on the ground and avoided Lavar Edwards spinning out of his block to stay low and tumble into the end zone.

Let me preface this post by saying I haven't been officially diagnosed by a "medical professional" but there is a family history of tendonitis, especially in the afflicted area: forearms. I use my forearms a lot when I train, and lately, especially the day after training I'm sore/tender beyond what I would believe would result from my workout. Even more concerning is that I'm experiencing some weakness too. The targets of my workout get sore and heal and I feel stronger, but the pain persists in my forearms
Any suggestions on how to combat this affliction whether it is tendonitis or not?
Rest. I've gotten tendonitis in my forearms before when I was rock climbing regularly, and the best solution is just to take a break from whatever you are doing that aggravates it until it heals. I pushed it for a while, and now I believe that I have noticeably less grip strength in the affected arm. It might also be a muscular imbalance, and not an aggravation of the tendon- in which case in addition to resting your forearms, you might also try to do some strengthening/mobility exercises... i.e. if it is a problem with your flexors, try strengthening your extensors, and vice versa.
"Its not about how strong you are, its how well you can move with that strength."

FLINT, MI -- About 320 people came out to the Sister Claudia Burke Center for Hope in Flint on Wednesday, April 24, for the Catholic Charities of Shiawassee and Genesee Counties Annual Volunteer Awards Dinner.
The audience members packed into the building's gymnasium early Wednesday afternoon for the awards ceremony at 517 E. Fifth Ave. Following dinner, community services director Jon Manse presented awards to seven recipients for their volunteering efforts with Catholic Charities.
Award recipients were Genesee County resident Tony Nunley, World Class Bar-B-Q, 5101 N. Saginaw St., the Genesee County Compassion Club, University of Michigan-Flint student clinic group PT HEART, Holy Rosary Church, 5191 Richfield Rd., Brendel Elementary School, 223 Bush St., and the Urgino family of Swartz Creek.
In September 2012, World Class Bar-B-Q owner David Burton -- who earned the Business of the Year Award -- held a four-day fundraiser that raised more than $11,000 for Catholic Charities. While the date has not been set yet for this year's fundraiser, Burton plans to add an additional weekend for fundraising and said that he is especially conscious of the need for organizations like Catholic Charities.
"You know, God has blessed us," Burton said. "Living on Saginaw, we see the need and so we do what we can. Not only do we do fundraisers for soup kitchens, but we feed a lot of hungry people right there on Saginaw Street. We've never turned a hungry person away -- the need is there and I just wish that more organizations would do the same thing, especially the churches."
According to Catholic Charities, around 16,000 volunteers provided more than 76,000 hours of service in 2012. Catholic Charities also runs several charitable organizations in Genesee County, including the North End, Holy Angels and South Flint Soup Kitchens.
Jeremy Rupinski, president of Genesee County Compassion Club, said that the organization has regularly volunteered at the North End Soup Kitchen, 735 E. Stewart Ave., for several years. The group -- which won the Golden Soup Bowl Award -- also works with other charitable causes, including local veterans and Michigan's Adopt-a-Highway program.
"We (volunteer) because we can (and) we probably should," Rupinski said. "I think it's like a responsibility -- if you can help people out, you should."
Flint resident Vishaun Ezell and several members from educational youth group Gamma Delta Xinos were at Wednesday's awards dinner. The group regularly volunteers with Catholic Charities and Ezell said that she stresses the importance of community volunteering for Gamma Delta Xinos members.
"Like I tell (our group members), you're fortunate that you have the things that you have, but everybody in your community does not have it as good as you do," Ezell said. "I want them to see that you have to be able to give back in order to be successful."

My column today was built around the story of Pearson Constantino, a Skaneateles-raised bicyclist who nearly died in a biking accident in Westchester County - and who is now planning a crosscountry bicycle ride with his brother Pete to raise awareness for measures that would increase biking safety. The journey will be turned into a documentary.
Pearson was wearing a helmet when he was run down by the hit-and-driver of an SUV. A shard of plastic pierced the helmet and left a 7-inch gash on his head. He puts it to people bluntly: Without the helmet, he wouldn't have survived.
The questions take on a sense of urgency after the death of Michele Duprey, an Auburn teacher who died this month in a bicycle-motorcycle crash. Pearson and Pete hope to see new legislation that mandates a 3-foot cushion between motorists and bicyclists. They want to see biker and pedestrian safety become a priority in driver's education classes. In a time of text messaging and iPods, they want to see a new emphasis on reminding drivers of the need to be cautious and alert.
To underline the need, consider this piece, sent along by a friend, Brian Dimmer.
What's your take? What can be done to increase safety for bicyclists and motorists? Leave your thoughts here, at firstname.lastname@example.com or on the forum.

From the start Tikkun has taken the view that Jewish morality and prophetic tradition require a challenge to all governments, including that of Israel, to live by the highest ethical standards. The more Israel rejects Jewish morality and the Torah's injunction to "love the stranger" in its treatment of the Palestinians, the more it loses the support of the most ethically sensitive people in the world and of many younger Jews in the diaspora. We are committed to full and complete reconciliation between Israel and the Palestinian people within the context of social justice for the Palestinians and security for Israel. Our view is that solutions to intractable conflicts begin as increasing numbers on each side can empathize with and tell the other side's story. That is an exceptionally hard thing to do in this case, given the traumas both Jews and Palestinians have suffered, but we believe it is possible. Our special issue on the 60th anniversary of the state of Israel and of the Nakba is here. See also Michael Lerner's essay "A Jewish Renewal Understanding of the State of Israel," his book Embracing Israel/Palestine, and the Tikkun Israel/Palestine Peace Plan.

Spaces and Places: Israel's Homeland Narrative
by Susan Pashman
The conception of Yahweh as placeless reflects the Jewish sense of identity as essentially homeless. But the homelessness of the Jewish deity is in no way a defect -- the Jewish concept of the divine represents a radical intellectual advance.

Benjamin Netanyahu's Fantasy World
by Michael Lerner
Netanyahu's speech to Congress was brilliantly deceitful because it played to the fantasies that Israeli propaganda and right wing militarists in the US have been popularizing for the past thirty years. The biggest fantasy: that we can coerce others through power over them to do what we consider in the best interests of the U.S. or Israel.

Before Mondoweiss: Jewish Anti-Nationalism in the Wake of the Holocaust
by Michael Kaplan and Jack Ross
Once upon a time, Hillel chapters across the country distributed an adamantly anti-Zionist newsletter that could well be described as the Mondoweiss of its day. Yet during the years in which the newsletter ran, Israel was gradually finding its place center-stage for Jews worldwide—a nightmare come true for the anti-Zionist camp.

Bouquets, Feb. 8
Thanks for support
New Riegel Right to Life would like to thank everyone who braved the weather and supported life by attending our breakfast.
Cheryl Boes, secretary
New Riegel Right to Life,
Be a good neighbor
Yes, there has been a lot of snow this year; and winter isn't over yet, so we can expect more.
I am fortunate enough to have a couple of good neighbors. They are two young men, one lives across the street and the other next door. I haven't had to shovel any snow this year. As a matter of fact, it's been several years since I've shoveled snow. They always take care of it for me and they refuse to accept any payment.
I want to encourage young people who have senior citizens as neighbors to give them a hand during this winter weather.
Actually, it doesn't necessarily have to be a neighbor, but any senior you know. Doctors will tell you elderly people should not be outside shoveling snow.
So I just want to express my appreciation and say "thank you" to Jerri and Mark, my good neighbors. I hope more young people would follow their example and give their neighbor and other senior citizens a hand.
Frank SanGregory,
Thank you to Tiffin Eagles
On behalf of Sentinel Career and Technology Center, I would like to sincerely thank the Tiffin Eagles Aerie 402 for its truly generous donation of $3,000 to Sentinel. Your contribution will help to make it possible for us to assist students in need.
Your continued support of Sentinel Career and Technology Center is greatly appreciated. Because of your generosity, we are able to further our mission of educating youth while they prepare for college and careers.
Again, thank you so much for your kindness and consideration.
Elissa Heal, director,
Sentinel Career and Technology Center
Walkway lighting a blessing
An open letter to say "thank you, thank you, thank you" to the City of Tiffin Parks Department for the wonderful idea of lighting up the night at Oakley Park.
Clouse Construction and Electric did an outstanding job in this past week doing the final connections, which will be a blessing for us all who use the walkway at the park.
We took the first evening walk tonight, and it was more than just light, it was picturesque, to say the least.
Thank you for this, progressive city of Tiffin, Ohio,
Bonnie and Bill Steinmetz.

A Day of Infamy
I was eight years old. It was Sunday, December 7, 1941. We went to church and came home for a quiet Sunday day of rest. We didn't watch the news because in those days we didn't have 24-hour saturation news coverage. Television was in the experimental stage. We had one radio, a brown RCA table radio on the kitchen table against the wall. It had a short wave band with which I liked to fool around. Otherwise, it was seldom turned on.
We knew nothing of the events in the South Pacific on the Island of Hawaii, more correctly Oahu. The Japanese launched a surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor Naval facility and Hickam Field, the airbase, that day. Bombs were falling and U.S. warships were blowing up and being sunk. Men were dying by the thousands, over 2300 by final count. The mighty battleship Arizona was mortally wounded by, it was later speculated, a bomb that went down a stack and exploded deep in her bowels next to the powder magazine. (Naval guns fired so large and heavy a projectile that the powder charge and warhead were separate. The gunpowder charge was in cloth bags loaded behind the projectile. The ship's magazine was full of bags of gunpowder.)
The Arizona blew up and capsized. Oil spilled out and caught fire. Few of her crew were able to escape as the lifeboats were useless and the ship was surrounded by a sea of burning oil. But we at home were oblivious. Our sole news source was the evening newspaper. The attack started at about 7:00 A.M., 11:00 A.M. our time The evening newspaper carried an early account of the tragedy. My parents were dumfounded and I was confused. We turned on the radio. Sometime either that day or the next, I forget which, our President Roosevelt spoke to Congress and his speech was carried live on the radio news. We listened to F.D.R.'s famous "This day shall live in infamy" speech, declaring war on the Empire of Japan. The man gave a great speech.
And so we were at war. Soon after Germany declared war on us as an ally of Japan. It is rumored that Hitler was upset at Japan for giving F.D.R. justification for entering the war. It was Adolf's strategy to keep us out. It is also reported that Admiral Yamamoto, the Japanese naval office in charge of the attack, was opposed to it. He is reputed to have said afterwards, when his fellow officers were celebrating their great victory, that he feared that all they had done was to awaken a sleeping tiger. History proved him to be prophetic.
The war effort that followed was remarkable in its dedication and single-minded goal: to defeat the Axis. We had war bond drives. Schoolchildren purchased war stamps for 10¢ each and pasted them in a booklet. When the booklet was full you exchanged it for a $25 war bond, We kids planted victory gardens to help with food. Seed packets were distributed through the school free of charge. The garden was only 5 ft. x 7 ft., but everything helped.
We had food rationing with ration books that allowed limited purchases of staples. No steak. Gas rationing allowed the purchase of limited amounts of gasoline a month, just enough for my father to drive to and from work. Nothing was left for recreational trips. We had an "A" ration card, designated by a black sticker with a white "A" on the inside of the windshield. This was the lowest priority. Farmers, workers in essential industries and government officials had other letter placards like "B" and "D" allowing more gasoline to be purchased. We collected fat drippings and turned them in. (Fat was used to make munitions.) Nylon stockings disappeared, replaced by rayon which ran so easily that stockings with runs became the norm. (Nylon was needed for parachutes.) There was much more.
War plants sprang up seemingly overnight and other industries converted to war production. There was a shortage of workers because of the draft and the expansion of the industrial base. Women went to work in large numbers. Some journalist coined the phrase "Rosie the Riveter" and it stuck. The gals did a great job. Many signed their names inside warplanes, occasionally with an address.
The country was united like never before. There was no dissent, no peace activists, no media criticism. Patriotism was endemic. There was but one purpose and that was to win the war. Sleeping tiger, indeed. The rest is history.
So, that's what we commemorate on Pearl Harbor Day, December 7th, this year the 71st anniversary of the "Day of Infamy." The commemoration seems less of an event with each passing year. I think that's unfortunate.
We live in an unfriendly world armed to the teeth with weaponry that dwarfs anything that existed in 1941. There are people out there who don't like us very much. There are powerful nations working hard to equal and exceed our military capability. We are the king of the hill and there are those whose goal is to pull us down. The risk to this nation is not al Qaeda or the Taliban; they cannot defeat us. China and Russia are not our friends and they are growing in power while we are focused on this Middle East exercise in futility. Does anyone really believe that the Arab world will become peace-loving democracies, regardless of what we do? Our danger comes not from there but from nations with the capability to defeat us militarily. Not yet, but there are policies in place in Washington that do not bode well in the long term for our military strength. This could turn out to be a tragic mistake.
Complacency is a deadly enemy. Just ask the souls of the 2300.

Ubuntu's Indicator Menus – Ayatana bearing fruit
When we set up Project Ayatana to improve the usability of the whole desktop, we called it Ayatana because we were focused on the "sphere of consciousness", one's awareness of what's going on outside of the current application. There are two key aspects to the work:
1. Notifications are "awareness distilled" in the sense that you cannot interact with them at all. We designed them as ephemeral "click-transparent" messages, implemented in Notify-OSD. Their sole purpose is to notify you of transient events.
In this blog I'll outline the arc of our work on indicator menus to date, and the trajectory we expect it to follow. We're about a year into the effort, all told, and I think it will take another 18 months before we can consider it baked. It should be done by 12.04 LTS. This is an iterative process, and things are in flux right now. I hope, when we are happy that we can commit to ABI stability, that Gnome and KDE will adopt the work too. For the moment, the rapid pace of evolution has meant that we're depending on fantastic upstreams to keep up with us as things move.

PHP Services! (cheap)
Hi all.. I'm looking to cure my long periods boredom by trying to get some php work to do... Below is a list of websites that I currently have (not all are completed) but they all have a lot of scripting involved.
100% scripting
A lot of scripting...newspaper site..
This company is never more, just so you know...
Depending on the job, I would charge either a flat rate of $15.00/hr or a base price. If paid by hour, you would receive detailed (not a hand me down) timelog. If you need a script redone for better efficiency I can do that as well.
All payments would be via PayPal.
Email me if interested: [email protected]

Lynn; I think your friend was just lucky. "Some times I win, sometimes the electricity wins" Ground Fault Interrupters, be they in the receptacle or the panel board circuit breaker are meant to protect personnel from errant line voltages. There is a small mechanically latched relay that has just enough gap to safely open a 120 volt (sometimes 240) power line circuit. There are no surge protection devices, such as gas tube discharge or MOVs inside the average GFI. They function by monitoring the difference in current between the black and white conductors, line and neutral. They will not protect for common mode currents and probably will not open even under short circuit conditions unless designed so. The receptacles wont, the breaker, being dual function, will. Depend on the GFI to save you from a faulty drill at the base of the tower, a hair drier in the bathroom sink or some other faulty appliance at the kitchen sink but not from lightening or some other high energy surge. Better use the products that are designed for that purpose and let the GFCI do what it was designed for. 73 de W3SVJ hisself, Nate somewhere in Pittsburgh. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

CLIO, Michigan — For 38 years, World War 2 veteran Cecil Garl stood on one of the city's busiest downtown streets selling cherry-red paper poppies to passing drivers and raising money for fellow vets in need.
The decades-old tradition at the intersection of Mill Street and Vienna Road (M-57) ended this year when city officials told the Clio Veterans of Foreign Wars that the fundraiser would no longer be allowed on the state highway because it was too dangerous.
Garl, 86, who would sport a bright yellow vest that read "buddy poppy" and stand near construction cones during the sales, said the city's ban hit donations hard in April.
"It was our biggest collection spot and they took it away from us," Garl said. "The poppies are our main source for the money we give veterans and their families.
"We've never had an issue there before. It seems a bit un-patriotic."
Clio Police Chief James McLellan said other groups, including schools, have also been denied permission to stand and walk in traffic for fundraisers. The reason is simple: It's not safe.
"They shouldn't have ever been there but it was overlooked," McLellan said. "Politics got in the way because nobody wants to upset the veterans ... until something happens and then they'll say 'why did you let them?'"
"The VFW is a great organization that does great things. We told them we would work with them any way we could to find alternative spots, but we have to follow our laws and be equal and fair to everyone. It's a public safety issue."
Clio-area vets still sold the poppies around town at nearly a dozen businesses, including VG's Grocery, Wal-Mart and other high traffic stores.
But organizers say sales were down, with $3,400 raised this year compared to nearly $6,000 last year.
"The biggest money maker is right on that corner," said Clio VFW Commander John Fortney, 69, a Vietnam veteran. "Poppy sales can't be used for anything but to help needy veterans and their families. It's about veterans helping veterans."
Fortney said the VFW purchases liability insurance of up to $100,000 per person. The group had also purchased brand new, neon green vests under advisement from city police that members never got to use.
New city administrator Eric Wiederhold initially denied the VFW's application to sell the flowers on the street but then took the request to the city commission in April. It was approved 6-1, contingent on the green light from the Michigan Department of Transportation, which shares ownership of the road.
McLellan and Wiederhold said MDOT officials told them that the agency would not approve a permit for the sales because of liability concerns, so the city didn't apply for one on the VFW's behalf.
"There were certainly concerns for safety, not only for veterans themselves but also for the general public," Wiederhold said. "Fundamentally what it came down to was that we got the understanding from MDOT that they would not allow solicitations on state highways."
But MDOT officials say the request would not have necessarily been denied.
Engineer technician Steven Gasser, who oversees permits at the Transportation Service Center in Davison, said in 20 years, he has never received a permit request from any of the volunteer groups that solicit in roadways — even though technically they are required to apply for one.
"They should be asking for permits but by the time we hear about (an event), they're already gone," Gasser said.
The city would apply for the permit on the VFW's behalf and the request would then go up the chain of command for approval, MDOT officials said.
"I do appreciate the city's concerns for safety. It's our major priority, too," said Davison TSC manager Linda Burchell. "Walking within the roadway traffic is not the best safety condition. We can also appreciate volunteerism and the perspective of people being out in the streets for a cause."
The red poppy, which has been named the memorial flower, has come to symbolize military sacrifices. Sales stem back to the post-WWI era when the flowers were sold to benefit communities in war-ravaged France.
Before Memorial Day every year, VFW posts across the country sell the flowers that are handcrafted by disabled and hospitalized veterans who earn a small wage.
Sales also benefit veteran hospitals and programs assisting military families and injured soldiers.

By Keith Byrne, Intelligence Manager, U.K. Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT)
Last month, the fifth and final season of the hit television show Breaking Bad premiered in the U.S. Despite all the legal ways to view the show in the U.S. and in several other countries, many people still viewed the episode through pirate websites. In fact, within a few hours after the unauthorised copy of the episode was uploaded, 80,000 people had shared the file illegally and after 12 hours more than half a million people around the world were estimated to have downloaded the copy.
Such behaviour can have dramatic and negative economic impacts – impacts that often go unnoticed by consumers. When a producer or director is unable to score a box office hit, for example, their ability to secure backing to produce the next film is greatly diminished, setting off a chain reaction that affects the entire production ecosystem from lighting and carpentry, to catering and cinema staff – all of whom depend on the continued survival of the creative economy.
At the U.K.Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT), we work closely with law enforcement agencies to fight against all forms of piracy and to protect the intellectual property (IP) of our members, including global and U.K. film distributors, TV broadcasters and sport rights owners.
A 2010 study from Tera Consultants found that in 2008 the European Union's creative industries most impacted by piracy (film, TV, recorded music and software) experienced retail revenue losses of €10 billion and losses of more than 185,000 jobs due to piracy, specifically digital piracy. The consulting firm also projected that the EU's creative industries could expect to see cumulative retail revenue losses of as much as €240 billion by 2015, resulting in an estimated 1.2 million jobs lost by 2015. With 67 percent of digital piracy sites hosted in North America and Western Europe, and BitTorrent traffic estimated to account for 17.9 percent of all internet traffic, it's no surprise that digital piracy continues to deeply affect the revenues of creative industries around the globe.
To combat the explosion of digital piracy, we turned to analytics to help increase our access to better intelligence and improve efficiency in identifying individuals and organisations illegally creating and distributing copyrighted content. With the piracy landscape moving away from DVD formats to digital, it became even more vital for us to detect and target those involved in online piracy. Using IBM Big Data intelligence analysis software, we now have a valuable tool to fight against copyright theft.
By using this technology, we created an intelligence unit at FACT to access publicly available disparate data – and as a result we were able to identify non-obvious links between these data trails, which have led to increasing success through criminal convictions and overall disruption of piracy operations in the UK and further afield. In a landmark conviction last year we secured the criminal conviction for conspiracy to defraud of the owner of a pirate website and a raft of convictions for other website owners.
It's these successes that make our work valuable to the entertainment industry and beyond. By using IBM analytics, we are able to gain meaningful insights from data that can safeguard the intellectual property and creativity of artists globally for years to come.
This year FACT marks its 30th anniversary protecting the intellectual property of its members across the creative sector.

Its primary purpose is to be a public announcement that the

in the world. You can buy in bulk from these types of places
and it could only cost you anywhere from $7-$10 for 20-30 bulbs at a time.

Eastman Kodak worked to resolve many of
the problems that arose with the wet plate processes, such as the longer exposure times, short working windows in which wet plates
must be developed before the emulsifier dried onto
the glass, ruining the shot, the need for specialized equipment taken to the field where the photographs
were being taken, amongst a number of lesser issues.
Even if you are not using the services of a baby-sitter or nanny, you can use a home security camera

Besides teaching kids about safe social networking through a fun interactive virtual world, Golf club Penguin is devoted to helping kids get involved inn creating change around the
entire world even at the most youthful ages.
One is simply by properly optimkizing the information itself, and thee various other, the moree complicate way,
is to go into the unique codes and insert a coyple of liness
which I will show you later. The pool is open plus uncovered
at mature shoulder height, plus my boys adored getting a few soft
splashes on their miund from penguin antics. The boys adored
squeezing next to one another into thee circullar seeing winndow and announced with excitement each
time a penguin zipped from the glass. In this online game, you take
control of a penguin avatar.
The purpose of tthe original game in Yetisports is to possess a
yeti smack the penguin with a membership and try to gett
it take flight as far as possible. Pawel has made more chaotic variants of this game that features decapitation, spikes, a big spiky club and mines.
To not forget a re-release of original has alloiwed movements
oof the penguin in flight. hit the penguin with good tiing
and he goes traveling. The angle of the penguin is
made to manage using tthe arrow secrets as hee catgches surroundings currents too stay in thhe environment.
It has two danncing floors and several bars at the club.
Membership Penguin: Elite Penguin Force: Herbert's Revenge was released in 2010 and is the sequel towards
the popular first sport. Unlike the first sport Herbert's Revenge pulls heavily from the
online Club Penguin version and is focused on kids too young
(or unable) to play the overall game online.
The popular gameplay of Club Penguin is now available on the Nintendo
DS. Thiis particular fun aadventure video game
will appeal too children of all ages (Club Pengui
membedr or not). Take on the function of Elite Penguin Force agent and solve tthe mysteries of Club Penguin Island
in more than a dozeen agent missions.
The mpre you strike in a row,the faster your penguin will go.
After you strike enough of them so you get to a hill, go
up the hill and jump in order to get majorr airtime,
which will make for easy factors without crashing
(less obstacles to deal with until you land again).
Recently on tthe official Club Penguin blog, Chattabox announced a new challenge for penguins.
To beccome completely honest, We don't know what Membership Penguin were thinking with this
post and lso the whole party concept. We go to school for most
of the day Golf club Penguin, we have sufficient school in our life already…
but it looks like we're going to have tto deal with a College & Skate party on the 18th Sept.
In my opinion, Club Penguin's Sled Racer App has stunning
visuals, and looks to become a lot of fun.

You say "Despite all the legal ways to view the show in the U.S. and in several other countries, many people still viewed the episode through pirate websites."
I am not certain about the exact position for Breaking Bad, but many films are simply not available in Ireland at the time when they are released in USA. Most people I know don't feel any guilt in downloading a free copy when the distributor is refusing to allow them buy a legal issue.
If the content companies want to reduce geographic restrictions on the sale of their products – people see these as immoral and hence have no compunction to work around them.

Curiousl – i followed the link to the breaking bad series in the first text line of your article to estimate the value of the series – i.e whether the damages claimed actually might be realisticly mapped to the value of the series. However if you try to look at the preview clips (legally) you get a : this video cannot be watched in your country …
However this is one of the standard motivations for pirating content : No legal availability ofen aligned with no worldwide but time staged releases….so don't cry over your own mistakes. Analytics will help you find quite a few pirate sites but not solve the "people problem". Also interestingly enough it is the Americans I know who are a dependable source for download sites – since they evidently can't easily obtain their series legally here in Europe.

If it's Sunday, it means we've crawled through the YouTube catacombs to dig up vintage American Heart Association public service announcements from decades long ago. We do so because it's fun to laugh at old-timey dialogue and fashion. But we've also discovered that many of these messages are as relevant today as they were back then.
This week, we're talking about birthdays...generally a happy time for us all, depending on how many of them we have under our respective belts. Here at the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association, we want more folks to have more birthdays. That means we're going to keep fighting to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.

Yesterday we were shocked, simply shocked, to hear that yet Carnival cruise ship was having problems of the sewage-spewing nature. Passengers are scheduled to make it off the Dream soon without having to go through the days at sea the Triumph gang suffered through. But today is a new day, and with that new day comes fresh news of an entirely separate and beleaguered Carnival ship, the Legend.

Hey @missblue. Not sure about the flat thing, with me it was quite the opposite. I was drinking to numb emotional pain/trauma which put me into a vicious circle of self loathing. I couldn't have been any more flat than I was then.
I find that now, the charisma has come back with the confidence and absence of self loathing. Not that I'm a nutter that bounces around everywhere here and there, just unfalteringly sanguine. It's a good place to be

Scientists working at the Institut Laue-Langevin, one of the world's leading centres for neutron science, have carried out the first investigation of two-dimensional fermion liquids using neutron scattering, and discovered a new type of very short wave-length density wave. The team believe their discovery, published in Nature, will interest researchers looking at electronic systems, since high temperature superconductivity could result from this type of density fluctuations.
Fermi liquids are composed of strongly interacting fermion particles, a group that includes quarks, electrons, protons and neutrons. They are common in nature, found in atomic nuclei, metals, semiconductors, and neutron stars.
They are also one of two types of quantum liquid used to model and explain the complex interplay between atoms or even sub-atomic particles that is governed by quantum mechanics in a field known as 'many-body physics'.
Fermion particles are defined by their adherence to the Pauli Exclusion Principle that states that no two identical fermions can exist in the same energetic state, making fermion systems particularly complicated. As a result, whilst the other types of quantum liquid, composed of bosons like gluons and photons, are well understood in terms of their underlying physics, fermion liquids remain more mysterious.
As part of this on-going investigation a team of researchers from the Institut Néel (Centre national de la recherche scientifique and Université J. Fourier) in France and Aalto University in Finland (Microkelvin Collaboration), Oak Ridge National Laboratory and SUNY University at Buffalo in the US, Johannes Kepler University in Austria carried out the first direct investigation of these very short wave-length elementary excitations in a fermion liquid by inelastic neutron scattering. In their study, the neutrons were focused on a one atom thick layer of helium-3, a much rarer version of helium on Earth than helium-4 that is used in balloons and airships, which acts like a Fermi liquid at temperatures close to absolute zero.
Using this scattering technique the scientists were able to observe high frequency, very short wave-length density waves known as zero-sound oscillations. The results from the scattering experiments revealed the zero sound modes to be far longer lived in this two-dimensional fluid than those seen during previous experiments at the ILL in bulk liquids, where they were strongly damped.
The discovery of these oscillations in a fermion helium liquid is particularly interesting as it's thought that if this type of high frequency density oscillation is seen in another fermion liquid, composed of electrons, this could be a mechanism for high temperature superconductivity. Once the team have completed their investigation of the properties of the helium system, their next step is to extend this understanding to electron liquids.
Dr. Henri Godfrin, Director of research at CNRS, based at the Institut Néel, a leading laboratory for fundamental research in condensed matter physics:
"People working with electron systems will be very interested to see if this property exists in their own systems and this finding suggests it is entirely possible. This is an important discovery in the field of quantum fluids, which has direct consequences in other areas of many-body physics, particularly in understanding the makeup of metals and the physics behind neutron stars."

On Tuesday officials airlifted hospital patients out of the cyclone's path and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate immediately due to risk of flash flooding. The evacuation warnings were not mandatory.
Queensland state Premier told reporters that the 400-mile front Yasi "is huge and life threatening."
Experts said the Category 3 storm could be the worst cyclone in Queensland's history after it hits the coast as a Category 4 storm Wednesday.
The storm was expected to unleash winds of 131 to 155 mph and dump up to 3 feet of rain on areas already ravaged by flooding, the Bureau of Meteorology said.
Those floods left 35 people dead from December to Jan. 13, affecting 30,000 homes and businesses in the Brisbane area, UPI reports. The government expects damages from the tropical deluge to cost about $5.6 billion.
Yasi was expected to steer north of Brisbane, but Bligh urged all the flood-weary residents of Queenland's coastal communities to prepare for the worst.
"It's such a big storm – it's a monster, killer storm – that it's not just about where this crosses the coast that is at risk," Bligh said, as quoted by The Associated Press.
"I know many of us will feel that Queensland has already borne about as much as we can bear when it comes to disasters and storms," she said. "But more is being asked of us."
The storm was expected to hit hardest in Cairns, a tourist gateway city of some 164,000 people. More than 9,000 people were ordered to evacuate from that region.

Adding to the controversy enveloping a 2-year-old French immersion school in Uptown, a teacher who was recently fired from the school has sued claiming she was defamed. Darleen Mipro, the former special education coordinator and English program director, filed a petition in Orleans Parish Civil District Court on Dec. 10 against board president Jean Montès, board secretary Paige Saleun and the school as a whole.
According to Mipro's suit, she was fired on Nov. 30 at approximately 2:45 p.m. for purportedly tampering with the school's website and organizing teachers against the board.
The firing came at the end of a tumultuous month in which the school discovered an $85,000 budget deficit, laid off three administrative staff members and received the unexpected resignation of school leader Jean-Jacques Grandière, leading two board members to temporarily run day-to-day operations at the school. New interim director Gisèle Schexnider took over last week.
On Nov. 30, Montès said that neither Mipro nor her husband would be allowed on school premises even though her son attends first grade at Lycée, and that the police had been called to escort her away, according to the suit.
Mipro was allowed to say goodbye to her class; as she left, teachers, students and parents there for pickup saw her and her son crying, the suit alleges.
When parents asked, Montès and Saleun said Mipro was being arrested for "criminal misconduct." Montès also sent parents an email that afternoon saying Mipro had been "engaging in misconduct," the lawsuit says.
When the police arrived, they issued a summons for criminal trespassing. Mipro pled not guilty in Municipal Court on Dec. 3, saying she only remained on the premises after 2:45 p.m. because Montès wouldn't let her leave until the police arrived. A trial in that case is scheduled for Feb. 6, according to Mipro's attorney, Robert Harvey.
Schexnider said she could not comment on legal issues. The Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office is in the process of serving Montès, Saleun and the school with the defamation papers, Harvey said. Mipro is requesting unspecified financial damages.
Mipro's petition includes Facebook transcripts that show a group of parents concerned about what they considered board members' mismanagement and changing explanations of the firing. One teacher posted that she was afraid of losing her job but felt the need to stand up for Mipro, whom she characterized as being upset that afternoon. However, she wrote, there was no yelling and no teachers left their classes unattended.
State superintendent of education John White said that the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education, which authorizes Lycée's charter, and the Department of Education were "watching the situation carefully and considering action as appropriate." He added, "It's important that we remember that everyone involved here is trying to do the right thing for kids."

NEWARK (AP) -- The man suspected of being the elusive hat-wearing bandit responsible for 18 bank robberies in New Jersey scrapped a plea agreement Wednesday.
James G. Madison appeared in court and told a federal judge, "I do not wish to go through with it."
The deal called for Madison to admit to six bank robbery counts, U.S. District Judge Jose L. Linares told a courtroom filled with news reporters.
Under the agreement, Madison also would have acknowledged committing 18 robberies since last September, an official with knowledge of the case told The Associated Press on Monday. The official spoke only on condition of anonymity because the official wasn't authorized to discuss the case
Assistant U.S. Attorney Shana W. Chen told the judge that prosecutors would seek to obtain a new indictment against Madison, who now faces just one bank robbery count.
Linares set Oct. 1 as a trial date but said that if further charges are brought, that date could change.
In jailhouse interviews after his July 23 arrest, the 50-year-old machinist initially denied being involved in the robberies, but he has since recanted and blamed "mitigating circumstances" for the crime spree.
"I'm not saying I'm some Robin Hood," he told The Star-Ledger of Newark in Tuesday's editions. "I'm not."
Madison was released last year from a halfway house after serving nearly 20 years in prison for the bludgeoning death of a girlfriend. But finances got tight on a $42,000 annual income, he told the newspaper.
"My rent was like $690 a month, car insurance, other bills. There's not much left," he said. "I'm not saying that's an excuse."
Madison has been held without bail since his arrest, which came a day after authorities said he robbed a bank in Union Township.
That robbery led to the break that authorities had failed to get with wanted posters and surveillance tapes: A bank employee wrote down the license number of a black Nissan Altima used in the robbery. The Altima was traced to a woman who lives with Madison. The woman told investigators she had lent him her vehicle, authorities said.
Madison, of Maplewood, was indicted only on a single count of bank robbery for that robbery, at a Bank of America Branch.
The robbery at that bank followed the pattern of other robberies attributed to the elusive Mad Hatter: a hat-wearing man who quietly passed a note to a teller demanding money. The FBI has said the notes were similar.
Madison had been imprisoned after being convicted of manslaughter in the January 1986 death of Terry Wells. Her body was found in a suitcase in the Passaic River. Authorities said Madison, a tool and dye maker who lived in
Plainfield at the time, struck the woman with a lamp during a fight.

Sunday's Division II and Division III games turned out a crowd of over 18,000 strong that stayed loud all day long. Fans started tailgating bright and early Sunday getting involved in mini lacrosse games amongst parking lots or and to test their skills in NCAA Fanfest competitions.
In the DII Championship Mercyhurst topped Adelphi 9-8 in a game that came down to the final seconds and a DIII Championship where Salisbury earned it's ninth title in a win over Tufts 19-7 in a game where Seagull junior Sam Bradman caught on fire for seven goals.
Throughout today's game breaks past championship teams were honored as fans welcomed teams back from former Hobart, Salisbury, Cortland, Roanoke and Towson teams to the field. The afternoon Sun set in and forced a good portion of the crowd fleeing for shade at M&T Bank Stadium. Today's games and festivities proved to be quite entertaining to an enthusiastic Sunday crowd. Scroll through the photos below and see if you made it on Sight and Sounds. If not, head on over to the All Lax-ess TUMBLR Blog and our Sights and Sounds posts from Friday's Day One and Saturday's Day Two of championship lacrosse action.

The power of Beyonce was evident even before she materialized onstage Sunday to close out the 2013 Essence Fest. Signs posted on the windows of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome box office announced that tickets to Sunday night's show were completely sold out – one of few sell-outs in the Essence Fest's 19 year history. Clearly, Beyonce drove those sales.
But drawing power wasn't the only kind she displayed Sunday. After a 30-minute delay caused, apparently, by malfunctioning video screens, she and her fierce, all-female band ignited "Run the World (Girls)," the evening's statement of purpose. For the next 90-plus minutes, excluding brief disappearances for at least a half-dozen costume changes, she presided over a dazzling, heavily stylized show.
There was pyro. There were film clips of Beyonce made up like Marie Antoinette in a Versailles of the Bizarre. There was a video wall. There was writhing atop a piano. At the center of it all was Beyonce, in ankle boots with stiletto heels, matching her troupe of nine female dancers – and Les Twins, twin brothers from France – aerobic step for step. The set alternated heavily choreographed numbers – during which a trio of back-up vocalists, the Mamas, supplied vocal support – with more sedate sequences that allowed Beyonce to catch her breath.
During both, she exuded strength and confidence in her own brand of feminism. Sonically and visually, the opening one-two punch of "Run the World" and "End of Time" was as impressive as any pop show I've seen.
"This city has inspired my music so much," she said by way of greeting, back in the same building where she starred in the Super Bowl halftime show five months ago. She dedicated the ballad "Flaws and All" to New Orleans.
Later, she and her crew charged through "If I Were A Boy" (which borrows the hook from The Verve's "Bitter Sweet Symphony"), "Get Me Bodied," "Naughty Girl," "I Care," "Why Don't You Love Me," "1 + 1," a semi-acoustic "Irreplaceable," "Love on Top," "Crazy in Love," "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" and "Grown Woman."
She opened the encore alone, silhouetted in a spotlight, wailing the opening verse and chorus of "I Will Always Love You." "Sing so Whitney can hear you," she instructed, before seguing into her own "Halo." After soliciting shout-outs for her musicians and dancers, she called it a night.
Until "Crazy in Love," much of the audience spent more time sitting down than Beyonce would have liked. "It took me a while to warm ya'll up," she said. "You're standing now. I feel good about that."
The power of Beyonce would not be denied.

Daily Image Jan-Mar 2012
This is where you will find a picture I post daily--or almost daily. When life gets stressful or I feeling drained of creative energy, my personal rules for posting say I can take a break. No one will punish me for not doing this daily and it does not mean I have failed. I try to post something new each time I post here. It is hard to shoot daily, so I am satisfied with posting something I took that week or even that month. Occasionally, I pull something from the archives. I began posting here in October 2009. I felt I needed to push myself to take pictures more often and to hone my skills. I believe I am better today than I was over two-years ago. I still consider myself to be a student and hobbyist, because I have yet to earn money with my photography. By the end of this year, however, I will be a professional photographer. That is my #1 goal for 2012.Read More

Plastic bottles do not cause global warming
Off License News | July 11, 2007
Emma Eversham
The bottled water industry has hit back at claims that discarded plastic water bottles are contributing to global warming.
A statement was issued by the Bottled Water Information Office to say it is an environmentally friendly industry following the news that the City of New York is running a campaign to encourage people to ditch bottled water and drink tap water instead to protect the environment.
The BWIO said: The very foundation of the industry is the protection of a precious natural resource and its use in a sustainable manner, and that ethos is applied in every aspect of the work of the industry.
Bottled water is most commonly packaged in either plastic (PET) or glass, which is totally safe and conforms to strict regulations on health and safety. By far the majority of bottled water (93 per cent) comes in plastic bottles which is totally recyclable. Bottles also carry messages urging the purchaser to recycle after use. The rest (around 7 per cent) comes in glass bottles, which can also be placed for recycling.
According to environmental groups, four out of five plastic water bottles end up on landfill sites and the production process contributes to global warming, but figures released by RECOUP show that 727 million plastic bottles were recycled in 2004.
The BWIO also says the industry continues to make inroads into packaging technology and that some producers were considering the use of biodegradable plastic.

News Picks : Storage capacitors made from hemp fibers
BBC: David Mitlin of Clarkson University in New York and his colleagues have made supercapacitors—energy storage devices that can charge and discharge quickly—from an unlikely material: the fibrous inner bark of hemp plants. Hemp, which lacks the hallucinogenic properties of its cousin, cannabis, is grown worldwide as a textile crop. The inner bark is usually discarded during milling. Mitlin found, however, that the bark's fibers can be processed to create thin, carbon-rich layers that function as efficient cathodes. When combined with an electrolyte, the hemp-based cathodes form capacitors that can sustain power densities up to 20 kW/kg.

Fort Wayne, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) - 700 people, in shiny red heals, showed their support by kicking off their shoes to 'walk a mile in her shoes.'
"The best part was just getting out and seeing how many guys came and actually got enthusiastic about it," said Josh Michael, participant.
'Walk a Mile in Her Shoes' is hosted by the Women's Bureau. It raises money to help victims of sexual assault and domestic violence.
The event is meant to be fun but there are subtle ways The Women's Bureau incorporates the cause.
"We have a clothes line that has t-shirts that have been decorated by victims, their thoughts and feelings that are expressed on the t-shirts," said Louise Jackson, CEO, Women's Bureau.
While 700 walked in the event more than 800 people there in total Saturday morning all supporting those taking part in the event.
"It's good to have fun but it's also important to remember what cause we're supporting and how serious it is and that we have to take steps to solve that," said Michael.
Josh Michael says he was glad to see Curtis Smith, INC's chief meteorologist, walking with his wife but a little disappointed with the forecast.
"He did tell us, hopefully we were going to get done before the rain started," said Michael.
That didn't quite happen for everyone. Josh did finish just before the rain. Curtis however, had to battle a bit of the wet weather.
"I passed him because I was going so fast you know," said Michael.
This is the 5th year for the walk. In that time the event has raised more than $450,000.

MOBILE, Alabama -- In Mobile, the MoonPie is king. Undisputed, uncontested. The king.
If you need proof, just look at the numbers: the Mobile-based Toomey's Mardi Gras sells about 3 million of the cookie and marshmallow treats annually.
Heck, there is even an illuminated replica that counts down the final minutes of the year every New Year's Eve.
So, how do you improve on Mobile's signature sweet treat?
The way you improve most things in the South -- you fry it.
Check out this video from Southern Living on how to deep-fried Moon Pie.
