The visual remix splices together scenes and characters from 129 different films and TV shows, and is made by NYC-via-Sydney art collective, Soda_Jerk. Fittingly, the short appears to be soundtracked by audio sampling maestros, The Avalanches, using tracks from The Avalanches' recently-released album Wildflower and alternative mixes. [more inside]

Going back to summer in Igboland
"Before the trip, Nigeria was a dim set of associations in my mind: my parent's stories of their childhood, highlife cassette tapes, dated images from Google searches, negative news headlines, the taste of rice and stew. Going back gave me vivid experiences to call part of my life, to draw from when I talk about the country, my identity, what kinds of people I come from, and the roots of why I do what I do."

Yet in their own strange ways, imaginary musical instruments exist. What's more, they have not merely shadowed or paralleled musical life; they have formed a vital part of it, participating in ways that show the fragility of the distinction between imaginary and real."

David Bowie Is
"There was an interesting video installation that featured part of an old BBC documentary on Bowie. The commentary on the then-burgeoning star was fairly contemptuous, including a haughty sniff about how most of his fans were '14-to-20-year-old girls.' This is something that feminist and womanist cultural critics still observe — how a largely young female fan base is used to discredit the integrity and value of artists. This, despite the fact that, over and over, young women have 'discovered' and launched the careers of dozens of influential men and women. Like David Bowie, who is now considered so culturally important that he has a globally renowned exhibit dedicated to his career, which tens of thousands of people have clamored to get into."

Let Me Tell You About Homestuck
5 years.
7,000 pages.
13,000 panels.
700,000 words. [Approximately the length of the Bible.]
Over 3 hours of animation.
Over 23 hours of soundtrack.
15 separate games, in 3 unique styles.
PBS once called Homestuck the "Ulysses of the Internet". Its author, Andrew Hussie — who resembles Joyce in his impishness, stylistic maximalism, and fondness for disturbing smut — calls it "a story I've tried to make as much a pure expression of its medium as possible". It has become a cultural phenomenon, inspiring proms and dominating Amazon makeup reviews. But most importantly, it's a rollicking good read, equal parts slapstick and epic, bildungsroman and cultural commentary.
What on earth about it makes its fans so overly zealous? And how the hell does one start the daunting process of reading Homestuck? If you're even the remotest bit curious about this Internet phenomenon, the following is a teensy-weensy introduction to just what makes Homestuck so terrific. [more inside]

A little Clump of Soul
Ten years ago today saw the English launch of a quirky Japanese puzzler, a sleeper hit that would go down as one of the most endearing, original, and gleefully weird gaming stories of the 2000s: Katamari Damacy. Its fever-dream plot has the record-scratching, Freddie Mercury-esque King of All Cosmos destroy the stars in a drunken fugue, and you, the diminutive Prince, must restore them with the Katamari -- a magical sticky ball that snowballs through cluttered environments, rolling up paperclips, flowerpots, cows, buses, houses, skyscrapers, and continents into new constellations. It also boasts one of the most infectiously joyous soundtracks of all time -- an eccentric, richly produced, and incredibly catchy blend of funk, salsa, bossa nova, experimental electronica, J-Pop, swing, lounge, bamboo flute, hair metal, buoyant parade music, soaring children's choirs, Macintalk fanfares, and the finest theme song this side of Super Mario Bros. Called a consumerist critique by sculptor-turned-developer Keita Takahashi (who after one sequel moved on to Glitch, the supremely odd Noby Noby Boy, and playground design), the series has inspired much celebration and thought [2, 3] on its way from budget bin to MoMA exhibit.

Well-honed weltschmerz and mesmerizing monotony
Lana Del Rey: Why a Death-Obsessed Pop Siren Is Perfect for Late-Stage Capitalist America (mirrored at Salon.com)
Lana Del Rey is pushing the envelope, and here's her message, delivered with a languid pout: 21st-century America is a rotting corpse, deadlocked culturally, economically, and politically. Since there's nothing we can do about it, let's enjoy ourselves as the body-politic disintegrates, perhaps by savoring some toothsome bites of the past: candy-colored Super 8 films, juicy jazz tunes and clips of sultry screen sirens. The future is a retrospective.
All of this echoes the ancient danse macabre, the dance of death, the motif that sprang out of the medieval horrors of war and the plague. It's a plea for fevered amusement while you've still got time.
A Piece of Monologue is a treasure trove of modern, contemporary, and avant-garde expression in literature, philosophy, art, design, painting, music, theater, and more.

Hello people,
I am interested in developing web-based help desk software such as WonderDesk. I just need some general input about the features and basic design suggestions about:
1. ASP model (pay per month) or one-time software purchase, or both?
2. Features (what you would like most)
3. Platform (ASP, PHP, JSP, PL)
4. Suggested Pricing (based on what you think the value of this software is to you.)
Thanks for the help/suggestions.

1. I would prefer a one time fee, even if it's a bit more than the monthly fee I find it a hassle to maintain another monthly expense.
2. Your basic stuff, ticket #, tech assigned, time completed in, etc... some nice features would include % of tickets solved per tech... this would help for people who pay for how well their people perform.
3. PHP and Perl would be ok, most everybody uses these.
4. Any number less than what I want to pay
Hope this helps,

Yeah, survey. I saw this but for one thing, it is a software survey (so throwing it in the Advertsing Forum might not make sense). Also, it seems to be anonymous (at least I couldn't figure out any info what-so-ever on this person, so it isn't an ad).
These are a bit grey. I can't explain the formula exactly, but if it is by a host, it will usually end up in the Advertsing Forum. Every other question could be construed as a 'survey', I know (I'm aware of this, but will have to decide this case by case).
For now it can stay, but I suppose some clarification is needed so people don't get confused/upset, etc.

Dear Administrator Chicken,
Maybe survey was a bad title. Maybe 'suggestions'? I was just looking for some input on Help Desk Software.

Lot 128: DAVID HAMMONS (1943 - ) Untitled (Body Print).
by Swann Auction Galleries
February 23, 2010
New York, NY, USALive Auction
David Hammons (1943) Please Register/Login to access your Invaluable Alerts
Untitled (Body Print).
Pigment, ink and colored pencils on wove paper, 1977. 675x495 mm; 26 5/8x19 5/8 inches. Signed and dated in pencil, lower right.
Provenance: the artist; Susan Loftin, Atlanta, 1977; private collection, 1986. David Hammons created this work while working at the Neighborhood Arts Center in Atlanta. Hammons was friends with fellow Californian artist John Riddle, who was then director of the center. Susan Loftin was also an artist in residence at the center in 1977.
A wonderful example of this contemporary artist's body art on paper, this image not only contains an impression of the artist's face, but includes a large amount of hand coloring with color pencils and graphite. Hammons had an early interest in the figure--taking a drawing class with Charles White while at the Otis Art Institute from 1966-68. In an interview with Joseph A. Young for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art 1971 exhibition, Three Graphic Artists, Hammons described the process of making these body prints, which appear photographic in their graphic quality. Unlike traditional monotypes, his prints used powdered pigments that were applied to the paper after he had physically placed his margarine-coated body or clothing against the paper.
While several of these works are in important private and museum collections, an exhibition at Jack Tilton Gallery in New York in November 2006 assembled 30 of these body prints, and was critically acclaimed for re-introducing this important, early work to the public. The exploration of unique and transitory images, body art and issues of identity that Hammons began in this work has continued throughout his career.

"We say six to eight months with the average person, but we're talking about a fit specimen," Vad said. "He could baffle you because he's in the top one percent of fitness. He's going to have the best rehab team surrounding him 24-7."
Woods is expected to return to professional golf once his rehabilitation period is complete. However, according to Vad, Woods could face further complications with his knee down the road.
"He has a very high risk of developing arthritis in the next five to 10 years," Vad said. "Is his career going to be cut short because of this? We are developing technologies to treat arthritis and he will benefit from them."
In the immediate future, though, Woods has further professional play to look forward to.
"But [the possibility of arthritis] kind of puts a time pressure on him to break Jack's [Nicklaus] record," Vad added.

Cheats and Walkthroughs
Welcome to Morning Hangover -- an excellent way to start your day with the crew at TheFeed...no matter what you're recovering from. Every morning you'll hear musings from our editors and have the chance to share your thoughts on what's going on in the gaming world.
I'm a few hours into Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time (it's fantastic, if Adam's review didn't convince you already), but this is only the second Ratchet & Clank game I've ever played. It's a criminal admission, given that character-driven action platformers are pretty much my favorite kind of game from the 8-bit era on. For whatever reason, though, I never got around to playing the Ratchet & Clank games until its PlayStation 3 debut. Even then, it wasn't when the game was released -- I didn't pick up the disc until Quest For Booty was released. Boy, am I thankful I decided to jump in, though. Ratchet & Clank fulfills an itch I need to scratch every few years very, very well.
Confession time. Is there a game (or genre) you've been putting off trying? For me...it's MMOs.

Dynamic News Stories
I like structured data. My favorite projects tend to be those that deal with, and exploit, structured information: events, restaurants, crime, and political information.
But one thing that's always bothered me is that the bread-and-butter of my chosen field, journalism, is relentlessly unstructured. The primary product of journalists -- the news story -- is just a giant blob of text.
A news story cannot be broken down into easily defined, consistent pieces. It doesn't have facts in predictable places. (Yes, a computer can split text into sentences and words, but those carry little meaning as discrete bits.) Sets of stories, even when published in the same publication and written by the same reporter, are not consistent in any machine-readable fashion. I cannot easily tell a computer, "Give me the most important bits of information in this news story." (Not to mention some stories contain more fluff than solid information!)
Sure, news stories can have metadata -- headlines, publication dates, bylines, categorization -- but the essence of a news story, its text, isn't structured in itself.
This lack of structure certainly makes sense. A news story is intended to be "consumed" by humans, not computers. Indeed, one could argue that's what makes a good news story great: it's literature -- more art than science. Well-written prose is unpredictable, and predictable prose is boring. Why should art be machine-readable?
I've pondered this question, and I think it's possible to compromise. We can indeed introduce some structured value to news stories while retaining the "looseness" of arbitrary prose.
The following list of ideas introduces a level of automation/dynamism that solves a couple of problems and makes news stories more dynamic. Each idea is implemented via an XML tag, assuming a story is stored as XML. (I don't have any particular XML language in mind; I'm simply introducing these concepts and giving them generic XML tag names.)
<profanity level="X">
When I worked at LJWorld.com and Lawrence.com, we had an interesting dilemma: we shared stories across both sites, but Lawrence.com (a local entertainment site with an audience of mostly college students) has quite a different tolerance for profanity than the more conservative LJWorld.com (the "traditional" local newspaper site). Lawrence.com writers aren't afraid to include naughty words in their stories, whereas LJWorld.com needs to remain a "family newspaper."
We would solve this dilemma by publishing two stories in the database: one with the profanity, one without. It got the job done, but it was redundant and inefficient.
So, the solution I'm proposing is simple: introduce a
<profanity> tag, which you'd wrap around all words that could be considered profane. Give it a
"level" attribute, in which you specify the severity of the word/phrase, and tweak your news site's content-management system to either dash-out the word, or proudly display it.
This could scale to the individual-user level, too. Let each site reader specify in a site profile whether he or she would prefer profanity to be blocked.
<date real="YYYY-MM-DD">
News stories that deal with current events (and that's most of them!) often use date-specific words such as "today," along with weekday names that assume the reader can determine whether the writer is referring to the past or the future. For example, the word "Wednesday" in the sentence "President Bush will be in Chicago Wednesday" refers to the next Wednesday after the date of publication.
This sort of practice was OK in print newspapers, because people generally read newspapers the day they're published. But on the Web, articles live for longer than a day, and it's almost certain an article will still be read days after its publication, via search-engine traffic or archive browsing. So, frankly, vague words such as "today" and "Friday" don't cut it anymore.
The solution? A
<date> tag that journalists could wrap around vague date words. Using that, publishing systems could output appropriate date text, depending on the day the article was being read -- perhaps even taking into account the reader's time zone!
Note: Credit for this idea goes to Nathan Ashby-Kuhlman.

Today, I was fooling around on Omegle, when I came across a guy who claimed he could suck himself off. I was doubtful, but morbidly curious, so I told him to prove it. Turns out he could. Before I could close the browser window in horror, my dad walked in and got a good look too. FML

South Carolina has many questions entering the 2013 season when it comes to the two-deep.
Who takes over for Marcus Lattimore? How do the Gamecocks replace five of six linebackers featured on the 2012 two-deep? Who replaces All-SEC players like Devin Taylor and D.J. Swearinger?
Also the fan favorite (and least important), who will be the starting quarterback?
For what it's worth, this will change many times over. Players rise in camp and showcase skills and improvements made over the summer. This is the time when kids grow into their roles and figure out what type of players they can truly be. It's an exciting time of the year.
Here is the first look at South Carolina's potential two-deep lineup.

Season 1 | Episode 3 | "Triangle" | Aired June 18,2014
This week's episode of Jennifer Falls, "Triangle," has it all — except suitable boundaries. From emotionally closed off beer guys to mean girls to silly bands, this week has what you need — unless, of course, you need appropriate parental boundaries or meaningful romantic relationships.
Jennifer's mother, Maggie, is a therapist with little or no regard for the confidentiality that job should entail. She sees little wrong with inviting her patients to make a snack in the kitchen while waiting for their appointment to begin. This means Jennifer bumps into them pretty routinely. This week we meet Cheryl (Kathleen Wilhoite, making a cameo), and we get a sense that Jennifer is feeling a little crowded, as she has to share her raisin toast with her mother's patients.
Once Jennifer is at work, rocking that sexy ref uniform, and away from trying not to make eye contact in the crowded kitchen, she and Dina start to objectify the hot new beer guy. He saunters up, shoots her a quick wink, then saunters away. Dina senses a "sparky spark" between them, prompting Jennifer to giggle like Jan Brady, and then Jennifer gets bold and heads over to him. She makes out with him a little, and Dina, thinking he's just easy like that, goes in for her turn.
Joke's on us, because Jennifer has been seeing David (Ben Lawson) for three weeks, but didn't want to tell anyone until she "was sure it was going somewhere." Some gross, awkward sexual innuendo follows, they make out some more, and David walks away, carrying an empty beer keg (insert the "I love to see you go" joke here).
While Jennifer spends sexy time with David, Wayne tries to get to know Gretchen a little better and takes her for coffee. Ethan Suplee plays Wayne so sweet and genuine that when Gretchen unknowingly jokes about his intended gift of silly bands, you really want to punch her in the face. Doesn't she know that "they're really hard to find and sort of expensive"? That's what he tells her as he puts them back in his pocket after she mocks the gift. While Wayne goes to get extra sprinkles on his coffee (and take a break from the uncomfortable silence), some girls from Gretchen's school walk by and get all Mean Girls on her and Wayne. His defense is pretty weak, probably because he's got chocolate sprinkles on his face, but most definitely because he uses the phrase, "What up, shorties?"
Stephanie gets wind of those Regina George wannabes and takes matters into her own hands. She confronts them and "out-means them" because she was them, and now that she is "older and smarter," she knows exactly who they are. Apparently her verbal abuse has an effect because they are nice to Gretchen after that, until Wayne acts like a spaz and his voice gets really shrill and accusatory. But at least she is back to calling him "Uncle Wayne."
Jennifer and David's sexy time is not quite as fulfilling as she hoped, and Dina questions her about how much she actually knows about him. Dina wonders if she even knows where he's from, and she sorta does. She tells Dina, "It's America. It's gotta be." Jennifer confesses that she doesn't really know all that much because he's not a real talker and just won't open up. Every time she tries to ask him about himself, he uses his wizard skills to turn the conversation back to her. They deduce, "Maybe he's just a dude."
The next morning, as Jennifer goes for her coffee and raisin toast, she runs into … wait for it … David!!! It turns out that David is a patient of Maggie's and has been seeing her for a while. When Jennifer confronts Maggie, Maggie spills just enough of his secrets to make Jennifer incredibly curious (and make Maggie lose her license in most states), and it becomes painfully obvious that Maggie knows more about David and Jennifer's relationship than Jennifer does. Maggie warns Jennifer that he has some healing to do, then reveals that David told her "it was mostly physical, but he's hopeful about the relationship, except for …". It's here that Maggie's professionalism returns and she cuts off the conversation abruptly.
It's the "except for …" that Jennifer can't live with, so she enlists Dina to do a little petty breaking and entering. They conspire to break into Maggie's office and read David's file. The files don't yield much, aside from Maggie's grocery list and pro/con list about going blond at her age; this just ratchets Jennifer's crazy up a notch.
In a huff, Jennifer barges into Maggie's office while she conducts a session with David and lays down an ultimatum: Give up therapy with Maggie or continue to date her — he can't have it both ways. In an unexpected turn of events, David chooses therapy with Maggie and dumps Jennifer on the spot. He eventually has a change of heart, admitting the "except for …" was his feelings of unworthiness.
They celebrate with sex, but unfortunately David begins to open up; what comes out is a giant ball of douchiness. Jennifer rolls her eyes as she gets dressed, having had enough of his grody stories, and decides she liked it better when he didn't talk.
The episode wraps as Jennifer and Maggie discuss David and his problems, and Jennifer realizes that Maggie was just trying to look out for her. We are supposed to see that Maggie isn't all that bad, but frankly I like her better when she's being all that bad. Keep it up, Maggie.
Are we ready to see Jennifer in a relationship? What sort of man would suit her? Tweet me your specifications.
Jennifer Falls, rated TV-PG, airs Wednesdays at 10:30/9:30 C on TV Land.

By Associated Press 9:13am, November 12, 2013Newark's City Council has postponed a vote on a proposed $43.5 million budget.
The council decided Monday to postpone the vote to December. The budget includes a 7.2-percent rate increase for water customers, a new storm-sewer fee and a property-tax hike for 2014.
Administrators presented the spending plan, a 10-percent increase over 2013. No property owners spoke in opposition.
The budget would increase property taxes by 1.5 percent to 70.65 cents per $100 of assessed value. Finance Director Lou Vitola says taxes on an average home would increase by about $7.29 a year to nearly $496. Residents absorbed a 1.5-percent tax increase this year and 6 percent two years ago.
Officials say the additional revenue would help compensate for a "flat" tax base.

Toledo has been awarded an $800,000 grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that will be used to clean up and redevelop contaminated properties in four areas of the city.
The City of Toledo applied for the grant in conjunction with the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority, the Lucas County Land Bank, and Metroparks of the Toledo Area. It's the first time the city has applied for EPA money as a coalition, and the grant is the largest Toledo has ever received from the U.S. EPA, environmental services commissioner Tim Murphy said.
The coalition plans to use the funds in four key areas of the city: the Cherry Street and Summit Street corridors; around the Fernwood Growing Center in central Toledo; along the Anthony Wayne Trail close to the Toledo Zoo; and around the old Jeep plant in central Toledo. The money will be used to assess the extent of contamination at several former industrial sites in those areas so plans can be made to clean them up.
Once the assessments are done, the coalition will be able to leverage additional money to clean up the sites and get them ready for redevelopment. Mr. Murphy estimated the assessment process will take about two years.
"It's a very significant step for these sites and these areas of the city," the commissioner said. People in these neighborhoods "have sat there and looked at these sites for years, and they see progress starting now."
The grant, which was announced today, is part of a total $69.3 million awarded to 245 grantees across the country.

I-39/90 crash caused by vehicle stopped on ramp, officials say
Southbound lanes closed almost 2 hours
The southbound lanes of Interstate 39/90 were closed in Janesville after a crash involving a semitruck and an army vehicle at the Highway 26 interchange.
The Wisconsin State Patrol reported that the crash occurred at 11:13 a.m. and one lane reopened at 12:40 p.m.
Three vehicles were southbound on I-39 in the right lane when a car merging onto Interstate 39 from Highway 26 came to a stop at the top of the ramp, according to a release.
Officials said Michael D. Rynearson, 21, driving a military Humvee, hit his brakes, causing Eluterio Medina, 30, driving a Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT), to hit his brakes and swerve to the left.
Leonard L. Cleveland, 55, was driving a wrecker behind the military vehicles and also swerved into the left lane where contact was made between the HEMTT wrecker and the semitrailer, according to the release. The semitrailer then went into the bridge wall on the left shoulder.
The HEMTT wrecker swerved to the right and ran over the bridge wall on the right shoulder, going through the wall, knocking debris down onto Highway 26 northbound, according to the release.
Officials said the falling debris damaged a vehicle on Highway 26.
Two occupants of the HEMTT wrecker were transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the release.
One southbound lane was closed until about 8:15 Thursday night because crews had to pour new concrete to replace the barrier that fell.
Crews were directing traffic to take an alternate route and take southbound I-39 at mile post 163 to westbound Highway 59 and U.S. Highway 51, according to the release.
There was substantial damage to the right shoulder of the bridge, officials said.
State Patrol officials said a part of a concrete barrier fell onto Highway 26 closing one of the lanes. The ramp from southbound Highway 26 to southbound I-39 remains closed for repairs to the bridge.
The crash remains under investigation.

text: Jordan and I met with Sue Ann and Mike today regarding the cement tee pads. Their plan is to use Michigan Works to help dig out the pads. Mike hopes to pour 6 or 7 holes at a time and wants to have all 36 pads done by the end of August! YES!! So, the price has gone down. We're now looking at around $1960 for all the pads, so please keep looking for sponsors/donations. If anyone wants to write a check, make them out to Isabella County Parks and get them to Craig, Jordan or Nacho and we'll get them to the parks dept. Jordan and I hope to be at Deerfield at 8:30 Monday morning to see this project get under way. We should have a better idea of a work schedule after Monday so if you're looking to help, let us know and I'm sure we can put you to work! Thanks!

7.5-Megapixel Digital SLR Camera
Details http://shop.panasonic.com/support-only/DMC-L1K.html
Features Lumix 174 7.5-Megapixel Digital SLR Camera with Optical Image Stabilization Lens (14mm - 50mm)
|Easily Accessible Controls and Intuitive Operation
The DMC-L1 features analog-like controls that feel comfortable and instantly familiar. You can easily adjust settings with the touch of a fingertip, check them with a quick glance, and set the exposure intuitively. Turn the aperture ring with your left hand (which supports the lens) and operate the shutter speed dial with your right hand (holding the camera body). These two controls adjust the exposure, which is critical in picture quality.For photographers who consider the way a camera feels an important part of photo shooting, the DMC-L1 is a revolutionary digital camera. It's easy to use and feels just right in your hands. Each time you make a 1/3-EV step adjustment of either the shutter speed or the aperture, the camera responds with a reassuring click.
This easy-to-operate, easy-to-understand, analog-like system also lets you select the exposure mode by simply placing the aperture ring and shutter speed dial in the positions shown in the chart below:
Lever-operated light metering mode and drive mode
The systems switching the light metering and drive mode use independent mechanical levers. Our light metering mode lever lets you instantly select intelligent multiple metering, center weighted metering or spot metering. While the drive mode lever allows one-touch selection of single-frame shooting, burst shooting, auto-bracket shooting, or the self-timer.
The First Leica Lens Specifically Designed for a Digital SLR
Taking Hand Movement Out of the Picture with MEGA Optical Image Stabilization
The LEICA D VARIO-ELMARIT is the first Leica D lens1 and first Four Thirds 153; lens to incorporate Panasonic's advanced MEGA Optical Image Stabilization. More often than not, blurry photos are caused by slight hand-shake (not poor focusing performance, which is a common misconception). This technology compensates for hand-shake to help prevent blurring, so you can catch clear, sharp shots every time you shoot. There are also two image stabilization modes to suit your needs. In Mode 1, the image is corrected continually, so you can see the image clearly on the LCD monitor. Mode 2 corrects the image2 the instant you press the shutter button providing higher quality pictures.
Four Thirds 153; Standard
The lens mount system used in the DMC-L1 is based on the Four Thirds 153; open standard. This helps provide the optimal lens design for digital photography while also making it possible to create a lens that is small in size without sacrificing focal distance or brightness. Use of the Four Thirds 153; Standard also means the DMC-L1 can use lenses made by other manufacturers using the same standard-providing you with an extensive range of interchangeable lenses to choose from.
Click here to learn more about the Four Thirds 153; Standard.
Preview Your Images Live on the LCD Monitor
The ability to shoot while viewing the LCD monitor is an advantage offered only by digital cameras. With a viewing angle that approaches 100%, the LCD monitor makes it easy to frame shots and gives you a wealth of information at a glance. This lets you check the colors after adjusting the white balance or view the changes from exposure compensation before you shoot. You can also compose your shots without having to look in the viewfinder when using a tripod. By combining the Live MOS sensor's full-time image output with a mirror-raising mechanism, the DMC-L1 provides a preview function that displays the exact same image signal on the LCD monitor that the sensor receives through the lens. It is also possible to display a preview of the image using the aperture preview button, to check the depth of field before you shoot.
Dust Reduction System Helps Protect the Inside of the Camera
If dust collects on a digital camera's imaging sensor, every photo the camera takes will be affected. Dust entering the camera while changing the lens is one of the biggest problems with digital SLR cameras featuring interchangeable lenses. We help solve this problem with our dust reduction system. A special Supersonic Wave Filter is positioned in front of the imaging sensor, between the low-pass filter and shutter. Every time the camera is switched on, this filter generates supersonic vibrations at a rate of around 30,000 per second to shake off dust and other particles from the sensor. The area between the sensor and the filter is completely airtight; and the dust is collected by a dust absorption section below the filter.

What is the School of Biblical Studies?
We want to help Christians to study the Bible inductively and take out of it, what is in it. In 9 months through the whole Bible. This is a valuable investment to get a strong biblical foundation.
The School of Biblical Studies is an exciting journey through all the 66 books of the Bible. You get to know them and you are trained in proper interpretation of the Bible. The approach of the SBS is though different to other bible schools:
- Study the Bible for yourself. The content of the course is not lectures about the Bible, but the Bible itself. The student is not only learning what others are saying about the Bible, but mainly what the Bible itself is saying.
- Study the Bible for yourself. The emphasis is on self-study. The student shall not hear from others but discover himself what the Bible is saying.
- Study the whole Bible for yourself. Maybe the most unusual aspect of the SBS is, that the whole nine months program consists "only" of studying the whole Bible book by book for oneself.
The Program of this Bible School
The SBS therefore consists of three quarters of twelve weeks each. In between quarters there is one- to two-week break. It is possible to do only the first or the first two quarters, but only in consecutive order. The content of the chapters looks as follows:
- The first quarter of the SBS begins with an introduction to the method of inductive Bible study in the form of an intensive, three-week seminar. In the remainder of the first quarter, we study most of the books in the New Testament.
- In the second quarter, we study the rest of the New Testament, and then start the Old Testament with Genesis through Kings.
- The third quarter includes the remaining books of the Old Testament. The set-up of the school is not according to themes or topics, but is based on a book-by-book study of the entire Bible.
At the end of the course, you will have an overview of the content, background, historical setting and meaning of every book. You will also have a deeper insight in who God is and what his plan for mankind entails. This forms a solid foundation for a life of service in the church, missions and society.

Natural history museums tend to conjure up gargantuan images: a towering Stegosaurus, enormous slabs of petrified wood and half-ton meteorites. The Peabody Museum has all of these, and on its way is a more unusual giant: Big Food.
Next year, "Big Food: Health, Culture and the Evolution of Eating," a collaboration between the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History, the Yale Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity and CARE—Community Alliance for Research and Engagement (a health initiative at the Yale School of Public Health) opens at the Peabody. This exhibit takes the Peabody's mission to "advance our understanding of earth's history" and applies it to obesity—one of the largest problems, both literally and figuratively, facing the Earth's population today.
Marlene Schwartz, deputy director of the Rudd Center, explains her colleagues' interest in the project, "Our mission at the Rudd Center is to take what academics study and translate it into something that's useful to the general public." One major way they do this is by working at the state and federal level to improve America's food policies by advocating for optimal nutrition standards in schools, reduced food marketing to kids and correlating healthy food with affordable prices (and vice-versa)
For Jane Pickering, deputy director and assistant director for public programs at the Peabody Museum, and her colleagues at the Peabody, the major challenge with "Big Food" is how to make the topic fit in a museum setting. They have to consider, as Pickering says, "How can we design the exhibit so the average person says to himself, 'I should really go see that.'"
As it so happens, the Peabody is particularly good at doing just that. Some recent shows, including "Invasion of the Bloodsuckers: Bedbugs and Beyond" and "Solving the Puzzle: Lyme Disease, West Nile, and You," not only demonstrate their creativity (Check out the "Spot the Bloodsuckers" game on their website!) in making health topics into engaging exhibits, but also their commitment to teaching about pertinent issues. This doesn't come easily, however, as Pickering points out the dangers of working with these topics, "We have to think about how to make it work without getting too heavy," she said without irony. This is an aspect that the museum must constantly consider as Big Food continues to develop.
Jeannette Ickovics, professor of public health and director of CARE, conceived of the project and is the lead curator. As a professor of public health and mother of two young children, she was thrilled that the Peabody Museum was addressing health issues. She said to a staff member last fall, "It is great that the Peabody is addressing health, but acute infections aren't driving human health in the 21st century—it is chronic disease. You should do an exhibition on 'the evolution of obesity.'" And the rest, as they say, will soon be history. She reminds us that the World Health Organization estimates that more than 1 billion adults worldwide are overweight—at least 300 million of them clinically obese. The dramatic increase in obesity has contributed to an increased burden of chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, stroke, and certain forms of cancer.
The exhibit will include state-of-the-art and state-of-the-science approaches to understand the complex challenges associated with food, obesity and health. It will include a wide range of perspectives from the anthropology of hunter-gatherer societies to the culture of food marketing. All three partners are working to shed light on such diverse topics such as the neuroscience of appetite, impact of food and obesity on health, food deserts, modern agricultural subsidies, school lunches, the importance of energy balance via physical activity, and weight bias, among others. "Big Food" has the challenging task of teaching the public that bigger is not always better—especially when it comes to portion sizes and waistlines. The resulting exhibit should not only provide adults and children alike with an enjoyable afternoon, but also hopefully inspire them to become advocates for a healthier world.
Big Food opens Feb. 11, 2012, and run through Nov. 30 at the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History in New Haven, Conn.
Jane Pickering from the Peabody Museum and Jeannette Ickovics from the Yale School of Public Health will share lessons learned from their experiences in designing Big Food when they present at Feeding the Spirit, AAM's symposium on museums, food and community. Join us in Pittsburgh on Oct. 13, as attendees and speakers from the leading edge of the Let's Move! Museums & Gardens initiative work together to build a compendium of best practices for museums addressing food issues to help their communities and strengthen their own sustainability.
Feeding the Spirit is convened in collaboration with Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh, Association of Children's Museums and American Public Gardens Association.
The Let's Move! Museums & Gardens initiative brings the fight against obesity in America to museums and gardens of all types. By signing up for the program, museums are part of a partnership not only with the White House, but also with a larger network of national associations and museums. For more information on the initiative, visit the IMLS website.

Dennis Kent has provided some history of this lighthouse:
The first light was built here in 1839 and it's first light was generated by a kerosene lamp in 1840. It stood 91 feet above the ground but sat on a high bluff giving it an effective height of 126 feet. The kerosene lamp kept going out so it was upgraded to kerosene fueled vapor which improved its efficiency. In 1869 a fog signal was added. A double dwelling was built in 1912 and is still in use today. This station became the monitoring station for all the lights in southern Nova Scotia. It was fitted with a Second Order Fresnel Lens estimated to shine for 20 miles.
After 122 years of service the original light was demolished to make room for the current "apple core" tower built in 1961. The unique design of this lighthouse eases the wind to flow around it rather than up against it. It is only 5 feet across. That was upgraded to a modern beacon which is rated at 1,000,000 candle power which peers out to 30 miles. Modern electronics allows the control and monitoring of 20 other lighthouses and is capable of monitoring 64 unmanned lighthouses. It was de-staffed in 1993. In June of 2000 it was transferred to the municipality of Yarmouth for its care and responsibility.

Survey: More Are Using Web 2.0
Watson Wyatt's 2009 HR technology trends survey found that since the economic downturn began, 72% of employers have increased their use of the intranet, and 61% have increased their use of e-mail to communicate with employees. With more than 70% reporting an HR budget decrease and talent management becoming a higher priority, employers are also using newer tools-32% have increased their use of Webcasts; 13% have increased their use of social networking tools; and 12% have increased their use of blogs for communication.
"Web 2.0 technologies work well, in most instances, for targeting specific employee and manager groups, and companies are using them in appropriate situations," said Jon Osborne, senior technology consultant at Watson Wyatt. "Using tools such as role-based portals, internal blogs and Webcasts ensures that both managers and employees can send and receive tailored messages in an engaging format. This is useful for improving productivity and maintaining employee morale and engagement, particularly in this difficult economic time."
Companies are adopting role-based employee portals-those that are personalized to the user-the most rapidly; 41% have already deployed or are piloting role-based employee portals and nearly a quarter are planning to adopt them in the next 24 months.
Truliant FCU Faces Trademark Suit
Three little words-"'Yes, You Can"-have sparked a controversy.
CommunityONE Bank has filed a lawsuit against Truliant Federal Credit Union over trademark infringement. At issue is the credit union's billboard that says "Yes, You Can Join Truliant" and directs consumers to its microsite, trudifferences.org, where they can learn more about the credit union difference.
According to the suit, CommunityONE Bank claims that the credit union has infringed on its trademark "Yes, You Can" slogan resulting in consumer confusion. The bank also contends that the credit union's sunburst logo is also too similar to its own.
