st: "No room to add more variables"
Thu, 1 May 2008 08:52:01 +0100 (BST)
Dear Statalisters
When I run any regression, despite it having < 2047
variables or even attempt to create a variable, I get
the following message. I would be grateful if someone
could tell me how I can possibly remedy this.
. ge z50plusa=.
no room to add more variables
An attempt was made to add a variable that would
have resulted in more than 2048 or 2047 variables
(Stata reserves one variable for its own use).
You have the following alternatives:
1. Drop some variables; see help drop.
2. If you are using Stata/SE, increase maxvar;
see help maxvar.
Thank you

January Jones: 2011 Golden Globes
January Jones blew everyone away Sunday night when she showcased a scandalous red Versace gown at the 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards which took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The complete ensemble consisted of black Versace stilettos and a clutch which made head turns as she presented on stage. Its no wonder the word 'motorboat' has been floating around the Twittersphere after her appearance on the red carpet! January pulls it off perfectly, despite her alleged insecurities. Her body and her cleavage is simply breath taking in that gown.
Jones was recently announced as Versace campaign representative and showed off her stuff in a nude photo shoot for the brand. This latest burst of January goodness is much better than that Bristol Palin look alike she was caught in during fashion week.

"He's a modern day Randy Moss," said an AFC East scout on Clowney. "J.C. doesn't have the same type of criminal background as Randy did when he was his age, but the dependence on natural talent and problematic effort concerns are very similar. Difference is, Clowney won't fall out of the top-seven like Randy did."
The "effort" concerns don't exist because his statistics dipped in 2013 compared to last season, but rather because he appeared tentative and fatigued too often during his junior year. Was he playing not to get hurt or are there legitimate effort concerns?
"In high school, he was the best player on the field. Same in the SEC," the scout added. "But he needs to realize that won't be the case in the league. If he wants to have a career longer than a few seasons, the kid needs to wake up, add some glass to his diet and understand that it'll take a lot more work during the week."

ASA 5510 with two ISPs
Could someone point me in the right direction and maybe provide a config example of how to setup an ASA with two Internet connections?

Is there a way to do this, and if so, an example config would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

1. Bram Stoker's Dracula was originally called The Undead.
2. More than 1,000 novels and 200 films have been made about Dracula.
3. After Sherlock Holmes, Dracula is apparently the fictional character with the most TV and film appearances.
4. In the novel, Dracula is depicted as an elderly man with a thin grey moustache, very different to the dark-haired, clean-shaven look we're used to seeing.
5. Was Stoker's Dracula gay? When rescuing Harker from vampire women he says "This man belongs to me", leading to speculation he was homosexual.
6. Stoker's inspiration for Dracula may have come from his mum, who read him tales of the supernatural and death when he was a sickly child.
7. Stoker found inspiration for Dracula while holidaying in the Yorkshire seaside holiday town of Whitby.
8. Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 big screen adaptation, Bram Stoker's Dracula, starring Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Keanu Reeves and Anthony Hopkins was a box office smash.
9. In 2009 Bram Stoker's great grand nephew Dacre Stoker released a sequel, Dracula The Un-Dead, to mixed reviews.
10. Stoker also wrote a short story called Dracula's Guest, which was published shortly after he died.

Date of Stay: June, 2012
Pretty pricey when we had to pay for extra people with us. We had various kinds of insects at our campsite the entire 4 days we camped here. The first 2 days we could not even sit at the picnic table, let alone put food on it! Some sort of little black bug was the very worst! Two perks were the daily trash pickup at your site--did not have to trek to a dumpster to dispose of trash. The other one was a nice little chapel with Sunday services which we enjoyed. Would be "iffy" if we stayed here again.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Wonderful campground!! Very friendly, helpful staff. We got a wonderful site upon check-in. Entire campground clean, no insects (with exception of mosquitoes after dark). They have everything you could possibly need right on the grounds! Went to the casino--almost unbelievable how big the casino was. Would definitely camp here again!

Calling All Towing/RV Experts
We're in the market for a travel trailer. We have a 2006 Toyota Tacoma with towing package. It is rated for 6500 lbs. Now, I know that THEORECTICALLY I could haul 6500 lbs. BUT, is there some magic buffer for safety, to prevent excessive wear on the transmission, etc.? For example, one might say, yes, you could haul a 6500 lb trailer, but in actuality you want to look for a trailer that weighs between 4000 and 5000 pounds. We may be camping in areas that are quite hilly, so getting up those grades is a concern in addition to not wearing out our truck.
Hopefully my question makes sense!
Thanks for any advice!
Towing is never the problem stopping is. Just because you can pull 6500 lbs does not mean you can stop it comfortably. IMHO 6500 lbs is a heavy load for your truck, especially in hilly country. Find the camper you want, find out the weight, get a buddy with a trailer and load it to that weight, go for a test drive. I have a Chevrolet 2500 HD and use it to pull an 18 foot trailer with a vermeer trencher on it about 6200 lbs, it takes a fair amount of trailer brake to make me comfortable when stopping.
Check out the tundrasolutions.com forum. There are a lot of detailed discussions on there about tundra owners pulling trailers, and what weights are comfortable/permissible/safe.
I have a 1998 26' Dutchman full size(for sale) that weighs 5100lbs according to the sticker and pull it with a 1999 GMC 1500(also for sale). Any load behind any truck is going to slow it down but it can handle it. If you have an electric brake control and adjust it properly, it will take care of the camper braking.
I pulled through the DMV weigh station on the way back home from a trip last year and the camper weighed 6200lbs fully loaded for myself, my wife, and three daughters.
weight adds up quick and a lot of beginning campers dont realize that. the dealers will always tell you that your combination will be ok cause they want you to buy the biggest one on the lot. also, truck manufacturers exaggerate as well. if you have noticed lately all the hype between the big 3 has been all about towing power. even the commercials are getting rediculous. dont do what i did, we bought a truck and small camper. small camper was too small once we had children so we got a bigger camper. bigger camper was too big for truck. we got a bigger truck for the bigger camper. bigger truck mileage was horrible with bigger camper so last year we got a diesel.i think you are on the right track. 4000lbs is about were you will want to be comfortably. dont forget a good break controller, weight distribution bars and sway control. i also tow about 5 mph under the speed limit.
Towing a travel trailer with a Tacoma V-6 @ tow package
I bought a Fleetwood Pioneer 21CKS travel trailer a few weeks ago. Im no pro at this, but I have towed the trailer 4 times since I bought it. So I have had a bit of experience. I realize it is just a little bit but my experience might be of use to you as you plan to purchase a trailer, or others who might be looking at a truck.
My trailer is 248 long and 911 high. Gross Dry Weight is 4,198 lb and it can top out at 6,400 lb when full up with liquid and cargo.
My Tacoma is equipped with the hitch package and a V-6 with Automatic Transmission, extra cooling on transmission and radiator. It is rated for 6,500 lbs. So I am cutting it close.
I went farther and bought the beefed up trailer package with leveling and sway control. I also bought a Prodigy Breaking controller with proportional trailer braking, in either forward or reverse. The Prodigy controller brakes the trailer at the same rate of deceleration as my truck or I can use the brakes on the trailer without using the truck brakes for going down hill.
With all that, driving with a full load of water and all my gear in the trailer I found that I was able to easily go over the mountain from San Martin on highway 101 to Santa Cruz California on highway 1.
I love this truck and it can do the job. That is why I bought it. And why I bought this travel trailer. They are a great match.

Shane Warne has made headlines once again, this time launching a scathing attack on Australian cricket's controversial rotation policy.
The veteran leg spinner vented his frustration at the policy in response to the Australian selectors' decision to give Steve Smith and Usman Khawaja a game each in the first two one-day internationals against Sri Lanka before dropping them for the third ODI.
The selectors' insistence on rotating players has been one of the talking points of the summer and while they have strongly defended the policy it has left many experts and former players confused.
And speaking in Perth on Tuesday, Warne has had enough.
"Playing cricket for Australia is something special, it's not just rotate around and give a guy a game and see how you go," said Warne in ''The Australian''.
"What sort of pressure is that on a particular player knowing he's got one game - see how you go.
"There is nothing like knowing that you have performed well enough and are going to play the next game. That is when you perform your best."
Mitchell Starc's omission from the Boxing Day Test was the most contentious of a number of changes made to the squad and came despite the 22-year-old taking five wickets in the second innings of the Hobart Test, with selectors keen to ensure he did not break down with injury.
Warne raised concerns the dropping of Starc shows the team is not being picked on merit but rather only those deemed fit enough by the selection panel.
"I don't want to hear any of this 'rotation', I don't want to hear any of this 'resting'. I think the players ought to take a bit more ownership and say 'you know what, I want to play, if you don't think I should be in the side, drop me'," Warne said.
"I just think it is a bit disappointing the way Australian cricket is going at the moment. I know there have been some injuries, but it looks like strength and conditioning are picking the team."
The 43-year-old was also unhappy with the decision to not allow young bowler James Pattinson to play for the Melbourne Stars but still allow him to play local grade cricket.
"It's too intense, Twenty20 cricket, but he is allowed to play eight overs of grade cricket with no help?" he said.
"I mean hello ... has common sense gone out the window?"

Consistency is a good balance between creamy and powdery. Dark golden is a good match with my olive toned skin. Almost too light with a good summer tan though. Will keep anyway. A little pricey but to me definitely worth it. Feels like a good quality foundation. Good coverage and I have melasma.5


text: I'm sure someone out there has swapped a gas engine into a 6.5 diesel truck. I really like the truck and I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row,would it be simple?( I think it would)or should I sell the truck and get a newer unit.I can't get an answer on wether I could put in a newer 5.3 or 6.0.I know with enough time and money anything is possible .I've got lots of time but fairly limited on money,I could also go with a Gen 1 small block or a vortec big block which should be cheaper.My 6.5 has 290k miles and still runs well but repairs and parts are pricey.My truck is a 4WD with a 4L80 trans Thanks

Building raised gardens is an ideal autumn project, says Janice Marriott.
Autumn's a great time to make a raised bed to give your plants a head-start in spring. You can enrich it with all the spent plants from summer, plus fallen leaves and grass clippings.
Build the frame first out of non-tanalised timber. Start the bed by thickly layering cardboard - I get old cartons from the supermarket - wool carpet or newspapers on to the ground. This stops the weeds invading the bed and also attracts worms.
After that, it's a matter of building. I layer my own compost and garden waste between thick layers of straw and sprinkle each layer with sheep pellets. Leave it all to settle for May, June and July, then plant the bed with spring veges.
In early spring your plants will be happy because the soil in this bed will be warmer, richer, lighter and easier for their roots to spread in. And you will be happy because you don't have to dig this sort of layered club sandwich of a garden. Just stretch out in a deckchair and watch it work for you.

This past week, our pop culture blogger Jorge Rivas broke all previous records for number of comments on a Colorlines.com post. His profile of Ohio student group STARS' [poster campaign against casual Halloween racism](http://colorlines.com/archives/2011/10/in_the_immortal_words_of.html) has pulled in 300 comments at the time of this writing, and they're still coming in. Jorge [credits](https://twitter.com/#!/thisisjorge/status/130732648518795264) his use of a *Mean Girls* reference in the first graf. But also, STARS has come up with an incisive, impeccably done campaign that's raising some tough new questions for a lot of people. Commenters on the post, many of them first-timers to Colorlines, arrived with some fundamental issues to address. Where is the line between funny and offensive, and who says where it is? Is this censorship? Where are the negative stereotypes about white people, and does white privilege exist when your whole family is broke? Is this campaign calling white people racist, and isn't that a racial stereotype as well -- and isn't being a racist the worst thing to be? In the real world, how does a Halloween costume fuel systemic bigotry? These are issues that'll be with us for many Halloweens to come, and we're pleased to be hosting a (largely civil!) discussion of them. With no further ado, here's a very small sample of what you had to say. **Joanna:** > I posted the graphic on my Facebook wall and was shocked by my friend's responses. They were saying it was ridiculous and overly PC, basically implying it's their right to appropriate these stereotypes for entertainment purposes. It's a great campaign, but also eye-opening in a very disturbing way.? **Craig Berger:** > Perhaps the thing that many people seem to struggle with is the meaning and the feeling that comes from addressing the term "racist." As a white person, raised that racism was absolutely disgusting, I grew up learning to recoil at everything that was labeled racist. The idea of racism was disgusting to the point that I never wanted to admit that I could be racist, and I started to view it as some rare, extraordinary thing. > > But after getting to know more people from diverse backgrounds and hearing their stories and going to college and grad school, I realize now that whether I like it or not, society is inherently racist. I benefit from many of my identities (being a white, heterosexual, man raised in a middle class, Christian household) because society treats me as normal, or the standard, while some of my friends who identify as African American, Latino, or Asian are viewed as "others." > > So while racism is indeed a negative thing, it's not as rare as we might think. We might not feel it or see it as much as white people because it's hidden by our inherited privileges, but I am convinced that others who are not protected by society absolutely feel it. > > [...] Given the exploitation of specific groups in society at the hands of white people, there is a unique, symbolic meaning found in the act of creating a caricature of those groups that isn't found in mocking the groups ... mentioned (vikings, cowboys, etc.), and to the groups who continue to be exploited and targeted in society, it's painful. > > What makes this difficult for many white people to understand is their privilege, or the set of certain, unearned benefits bestowed upon them by society. In America, we are conditioned to view whiteness as normalcy, and so there are things as white people we experience that we don't think twice about (the color of a Band-Aid, for example) that can be painful to other groups in society. > > I suppose the main thing from this is that no one is telling you whether or not you are "allowed" to do anything or not. If you're reading this, I am guessing you're fairly capable of making your own decisions. But I think what this campaign is asking all of us to do is stop and think about how our actions--which we often take for granted and fail to analyze anyway--might impact those around us who have differing experiences in life. And if you're not sure how others' experiences differ from yours, maybe that's an opportunity to start listening and thinking.? **Tyrone Bhart:** > Thanks Craig for the critical analysis and lack of right or wrong judgement. It definitely helps me clarify the situation and empathizes with those who felt this campaign was necessary, as well as what they hoped to achieve. > > However, in fairness, I think it would have had a greater impact had it included stereotypes from white cultures that are also harshly judged- perhaps a Catholic priest with a young boy, or an orthodox Jew, or even a US military soldier- you can't say they have a great image to the majority of Americans. Heck, a KKK costume is equivalent to an Arab terrorist in my mind. I find that very offensive. > > But in the end, part of what makes America so great is that we CAN dress up as these things and a discussion like this can occur because we have the freedom and cultural awareness to allow it- even though it may be uncomfortable from time to time.? > > [...] What makes a "people" or a culture anyway? Is it not a culture until it's repressed or vilified or slandered? I think there is an entire culture of suburban white kids who listen to pop music and spend their weekend sexting each other. I think it's a deplorable culture, but it is what they know and who they are. Is it okay to make fun of them or not? Why? > > [...]Honestly, if someone is stupid enough to honestly believe one of those cultural stereotypes then they aren't worth anyone's time. If we weren't all so kind, natural selection would take care of such imbeciles. **vtteacher:** > [...] I wish the people who didn't believe these stereotypes could easily be ignored. Unfortunately, many are in positions of power & influence: just look at AL's new "immigration" law. While some may be motivated simply by wanting a more law-based society, this is also a huge push-back against another culture based on negative stereotypes. --------------- **schatt:** > Where's the white guy tearfully holding up a picture of a businessman? **parkwood1920:** > When white businessmen are detained at Guantanamo Bay or federal detention centers for the crime of solely being white businessmen, or beaten to death by teenagers who joke about "stomping a businessman," you let me know.? **Osa Taas:** > At what point is the line drawn though? What if I admire Harriet Tubman and want to dress as her for Halloween? Am I 'not allowed' because I'm not African American? I agree that intentionally derogatory costumes should be avoided, but it could also be a slippery slope.? > > [...] Maybe we can just make it, "If we really want to fight racism, then one of the most important things that people need to do is really listen to other people." **Rowan Griffith:** > Well yeah, but white people tend to get listened to way more than everybody else, and at the expense of people of color.? **FlutterDoo:** > People don't listen to me at all. Maybe you're confusing "White People" with "Rich People", because there are more rich white people than non-white people. But that can't be, because then YOU would be the racist, assuming all white people are rich and get their voices heard, huh?? > > I think these people are being stupid and need to grow thicker skin. Hell, I'm also gay! If some straight guy goes around acting gay and wiggling dildos in everyone's face it's because he's choosing to act stupid for Halloween, WHO CARES!? **PersephoneF:** > so....only white people of any nationality can be racist? If a black woman wanted to dress as a geisha, that's okay? ---------------- **shannon mason:** > 1 in 3 Native women will be raped once in their lifetime. > > Whenever I see someone wandering around on Halloween in a groin high skirt with fake feathers and a little vest barely covering their chest, I think of this statistic. I am also reminded of the fact that more than 80% of these crimes are perpetrated by non-native men. > > 1 in 10 black men in the United States aged 25 to 29 is incarcerated. > > When I see someone jokingly sipping from a ridiculous plastic chalice dressed as a pimp, I remember the fact that the more young black men are incarcerated than any other racial group. That nearly 50% of the prison population is black. > > Dressing up just makes these realities seem okay. And they're not. By going out as a reinforcement of a stereotype we are only reinforcing that these are the available roles for us to fulfill... sexualized object, hustler, lazy worker... there's nothing fun about it.? **Evan Johnson:** > These statistics are daunting, but we are talking about halloween costumes. If everyone suddenly decided to go as something boring like an apple or bumblebee, those stats probably wouldn't change.? **snookifan:** > [...] Personally, I think being called racist is probably the one attack minorities have against white people and STARS took full advantage of that. I'm not surprised by how people are reacting to it. It's not fair and also it's not helping the situation at all... and really, it's RACIST.? **CJ_Canadian:** > Racism = prejudice + power.? **Aliza Flores:** > Regardless of our opinion on this matter, it is important that we think about the corporate side of all of this. People spend so much money on buying costumes every year. We are not the ones benefiting from this in any way. Just think about this, they're making money out of mocking and diminishing people, and that their choice of mocking POC and other groups is conscious. This is not coincidental.? --------------- **libractivist:** > A) It's blatantly unfair to revel in the "exoticism" of someone else's culture, whether you mean it in a positive or a negative way, when that very "exoticism" or otherness keeps people in that culture from ever fully fitting in, plays into whether or not they can get a job, makes them more likely to be arrested, or simply colors every interaction they have with the assumption that they will be "smart" or "hard working" or "sassy" or "submissive". > > B) Even if you're trying very, very hard to emulate someone you respect -- it's 99% sure that as a white person (or as a man, or as a straight person, or...) you cannot actually do justice to what it means to be a person of color who lives with the experience of racism (or a woman who is subject to sexism, or a queer person...you get the point.) There are other ways to honor someone than to act like you identify with them when you really can't. > > C) Blackface: Just don't do it. Blackface, particularly in America, has a long and awful history of being used specifically to mock African Americans. Even if you're emulating a particular person, even if you mean it in the best possible way, even if it wasn't *your* ancestors who did that...just accept that blackface will always have those connotations and be hurtful to some people. > > As a white person, you have about 80 billion other costume choices -- most of our pop stars and media people and kids characters and movie idols are white. So really...let's not pretend showing a little respect is going to destroy our fun.? > > [...] The reason stereotypes of people of colour are hurtful in a way that stereotypes of white people aren't is that they are often the only images we see. While the media is full of people of Austrian and other European descent being good, bad, and everything in between, minorities are all too often essentialized to one (often negative) archetype. > > It has nothing to do with believing white people are "the only ones who do bad stuff on earth", and everything to do with learning to understand CONTEXT.?

Hi. I had my tummy tuck 2 yrs ago although it has healed fine. The scar is high and I was wondering, can't it be lowered? And is there a reason that some people have high scars?
Can a High Scar from Tummy Tuck Be Lowered?
Doctor Answers 7
High Tummy Tuck scar can be lowered
The placement of tummy tuck scars vary from surgeon to surgeon and also, patient to patient. If your scar is too high, it is usually possible to lower it. It can be lowered in the middle without extending the scar. But if the sides are too high, the scar needs to be extended somewhat to lower it. The procedure generally takes only 30 minutes or so, and the recovery is much easier than the original abdominoplasty.
I hope this helps!
Lowering a tummy tuck scar
It is possible to lower a tummy tuck depending on the softness of the skin in the area of your scar. I would recommend waiting one year after your original tummy tuck surgery to attempt lowering it. This is done at the level of the skin, no muscle involvement is required, therefore your recovery is easier. The scar can still migrate upward slightly overtime, so the improvement may be mild at best; depending on how "high" it is to begin with.
Consult with one or more board certified plastic surgeons prior to scheduling this procedure.

High scars with tummy tuck
High scars generally occur because of the surgeon's desire to remove all stretch marks which typically are centered around the umbilicus. Once placed in a high position the scars are difficult to lower unless significant laxity has recurred allowing more excision of skin or the skin is stretched with a tissue expander.

High abdomional scar
It may be possible to lower an abdominal scar tha you feel is a bit high, but if it was done recently, you may have to wait a year or so.
How to lower a high tummy Tuck scar
Tummy tucks are a very popular and effective way to contour the abdomen. In our practice, we work very closely with our patients before the surgery to help plan the position of their scar. When designing our tummy tuck, we use the patients smallest bikini to help position the scar in a location that will be least noticeable
in our practice, we commonly see patients who have received tummy tucks in who are not satisfied with the high position of their scars. The most important factor in fixing this scar position is the looseness of the abdominal skin. If there is enough laxity in the abdominal wall, you would benefit from a revision tummy tuck where this abdominal flap is lowered and the scar is replaced with a low scar in a less noticeable position.
To learn more about tummy tucks, see photos, and help you decide which one is best for you, please visit us at the link below:
Web reference: http://www.miamiaesthetic.com/abdominoplasty_photos.htm
Each person has a diferent scar location
It is best for the surgeon to avoid a vertical scar on the abdomen from where the belly button has been incised and so if you don't have a lot of upper abdominal excess tissue, your scar will wind up higher than others. Unless you developed a significant amount of lax skin again, there is no way to lower it. It should continue to fade over the next 2-3 years until it is quite faint.

WHEN DONIS LUARCA'S daughter joined the San Rafael-based Enriching Lives through Music program about seven years ago, he had no idea it would teach her to play a handful of different instruments and prepare her to attend an exclusive music and leadership conference next month.
"That's one of the best programs we have here in the Canal," Luarca said. "They are helping my daughter a lot. I have no words to thank them."
The music program started in 2007 when Jane Kramer, of Larkspur, bought 15 recorders with her own money and began teaching music to low-income Canal area children. Armed with grant-writing skills and supportive parents, she's grown the free music program to include more than 120 youths, multiple music teachers and a wide variety of instruments.
Kramer modeled the program after the experiences she had as a child at the Fine Arts Music Conservatory of Miami, a community music school. Two years into running her program, she learned of the El Sistema music program in Venezuela and was stunned by the similarities.
"Everything I was doing was completely in concert with El Sistema. It was what I was doing in the Canal," Kramer said.
The Enriching Lives through Music program is now an affiliate of El Sistema through the National Alliance of El Sistema Inspired Programs. The El Sistema program started 38 years ago in a parking garage in Caracas when a teacher gathered 11 children together to play music. The program's curriculum is now taught to more than 500,000 low-income Venezuelan children.
Two of Kramer's music students have been chosen to participate in the prestigious Take a Stand Symposium next month in Los Angeles to be trained as student leaders in the El Sistema music program. Davidson Middle School students Diana Luarca, 13, and Jocelyn Chacon, 13, are two of the 25 students who have been selected from across the country to participate and receive $1,000 scholarships to attend.
Diana, who primarily plays violin, said she's excited about attending the conference.
"We're going to learn leadership skills and how to work well with other people from other communities by playing together as a group," she said. "I'm hoping to help out in (the Enriching Lives program) when I get older and get into high school and be one of their interns."
The viola-playing Jocelyn said she was surprised she and Diana were selected for the honor.
"I was telling all my friends when I got accepted," Jocelyn said. "I'm kind of nervous about meeting all the people."
Kramer also plans to attend the conference, which will focus on empowering students to step into leadership roles and teach them the power of ensemble music. One of the main goals of the El Sistema program is to change the trajectory of people's lives through orchestra involvement, peer-teaching and community building.
"It's been a really wonderful thing for us that we're now part of it," Kramer said. "Our mission is to help kids succeed in all facets of their lives."
In the Canal, music program participants are taught after school at the Albert J. Boro Community Center, the Canal Alliance and San Pedro Elementary School. On Saturdays, children meet at Bahia Vista Elementary School to play music for three hours.
All students start on the soprano recorder, chorus and Orff mallet instruments to learn basic music skills. They are then given the opportunity to choose a different instrument, such as the violin, flute, viola or clarinet to master. Chamber ensembles, an orchestra, concerts with renowned musicians and guest artist visits are some of the program's other perks.
Jocelyn, who fell in love with the viola's lower tones after playing the violin, said she and her parents enjoy being part of the program.
"My friends are there and I get to learn new things. They take their time and meet with people individually if they're having problems and it feels like it's one-on-one," she said.
For Diana, the experience has opened up opportunities for her to succeed. She plans to go to college to become a music teacher or geologist.
"Everyone is really nice and everyone who is in the program has helped me do a lot," Diana said. "I've gone to many places and if it weren't for them I wouldn't be going on the (conference) trip."
Before heading off to Los Angeles, Diana, Jocelyn and the other students will perform at a concert at 2 p.m. Feb. 8 at the Albert J. Boro Community Center at 50 Canal St. in San Rafael. Kramer said the free concert, featuring both Beethoven and Latin music, will be followed by a potluck.
The music program is in the process of becoming a nonprofit organization and Kramer said she spends her free time writing grant applications to keep money in the coffers. While the parents help by hosting fundraisers, supervising the children and supporting the youths, money is still needed to provide the free instruments and lessons. Especially since Kramer plans to start a new cello program soon.
She said the program is worth donating to because it fosters self esteem, resilience and gives the Spanish-speaking parents an opportunity to relate to their children in a way that is difficult to do in the dominantly English-only school systems.
"It's not about only the music, it's about creating community through ensemble," Kramer said.

Upcoming Concert

- - Ban the negative reps (http://www.mmaforum.com/forum-feedback/12512-ban-negative-reps.html)
Ban the negative reps
Ok i think we need to ban the negative rep and save those warnings etc. for the mods,
I recently got a negative rep saying "you suck my **** you *****" and he didn't even leave hes name, but i looked through the thread and i made about 3 posts saying nothing bad to anything it was on topic although i what i said turned out not to be true but it wasn't anything bad.
I don't see the point of negative reps...people just give them out because they don't agree with someone, i say ban them because if someone does something bad enough to deserve one wouldn't they be able to get a suspension anyway?
If you banned negi, you'd have to ban posi too. It doesn't have any effect on your account does it? I don't get why people are so bothered when they get neg rep.
People abuse the negative rep though...people don't give people positive reps because they don't like someone.
If someone posts something good ill rep them but i've never given out a negative rep why? because its pointless...if someone does something bad enough that they deserve them they should get suspended and whats the other reason people get them? there isn't one people just give them out because they don't agree with someone.
then what's the point of having rep at all?
what should happen is usernames should be tagged on both pos and neg rep...but taking out the neg rep deems the whole system pretty useless.
some people deserve neg rep. go to other forums and people actually flaunt it.
mmabot, for example, had a red box i believe and definitly deserved it.
plus, someone who deals out negative rep is likely someone who gets neg rep himself or doesnt have a lot of pos rep.
and, when someone with far less rep than you, negative reps you, it has little to no effect. thats how the system works.
It doesnt matter, just talk to trey b like i did and he banned the guy who neg repped me. But it has to be an offensive rep, like youres.
I posted this in a can fedor be beat thread
it will happen, and yes get him in a ring with out ropes. he is a good fighter but he definately can be beat
this in a why cro cop got beat thread
He just got beat get over it, he got fair and square and it wasn't because he was less skilled or because he took his opponite lightly, or the ufc lightly he just got beat live with it. why did he lose because the other guy beat him period.
this one in a what should the ufc change immediately
they already do give bonuses for ko's and submissions
they need more good fighters in their hw division, this division has always bored me when i watch the ufc(randy not included in previous statment but guess who is ill give you a guess his shorts stink real bad!)
no more tito vs dana like shows where there is no fight if you put the ufc name on it I want to see a fight
get better talent for the TUF the fights on this years seasons are boring
besides that I kinda like the ufc the way it is
I got neggitive repped on all of these. I try hard to give out positive post and when people ask for my oppinion i give it, it makes me not want to post for you can get neg repped for anything
ive gotten countless negetive reps just because soemone felt like it for no reason or disagreed with my opinion on who would win a fight.
i think neg reps are stupid which is why ive probly only given out two of them int he whole time ive been here.
I got 2 neg reps.....1 for defending Matt Hughes because he believes in GOD. Which in my opinion whether you have faith in GOD or not shouldn't open the door for attacks. I was called a twit because I believe in GOD. I can live with it....I've been called worse.
The other one was for a post I did today agreeing with another poster about the Wang fight on TUF5......didn't say nothing just agreed.
They don't leave their name so you can't track em. It wouldn't be so bad if they had to leave a name and a reason but, to just -rep someone for disagreeing with an opinion if it's light, shouldn't bring a -rep. It's all hogwash. I'll +rep if I like the post or whatever but I see no point in it all if someone just doesn't like you.
If someone thinks a post deserves a negative review, then why not have the spine to say it out in the open (in the thread itself) where he/she'll be held accountable? I've been tempted to dish out the neg rep as well like when Emperor had that swastika sig. Instead, it was called-out in the open. Guess what? Problem solved; issue clarified.
The pos reps are enough to guage a member's usefullness..if he/she's useless then it'll be reflected.
But if you really want -/+ rep system, why not have full transparency?..including all comments. Let's weed out the keyboard warriors and stop sponsoring cheapshots!

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Funny how ideas come about. I have become pretty obsessed with the idea of self-publishing and zines for a while now and consequently mulling over what my first venture will be. I came up with making a fold -out poster zine, that would be an easy and compact intro for me.
I had been doing a lot of thinking and jotting ideas down, but didn't make a venture into the process itself until recently. It just goes to show that sometimes you have to get your hands dirty to find your way. That's how I came up with 'The Breathing Porch.' During my trip to Asheville NC, I learned that the old houses were often used by patients with respiratory illnesses because of the clean mountain air. They would sit on the porch and hence, they were named breathing porches. I loved the name instantly and put it in the back of my brain as a possible title for something.
Then with some sketching I did my idea came together. The picture I ended up with became the shape for the story and thus the first issue of The Breathing Porch was born! I now have a series planned following the rules devised from the first issue.
1. The artwork determines the direction of the story
2. The artwork must be black and white only
3. The story must fit onto one side of the poster along with the artwork
4. The story thereafter written is the one and only draft, though erasures are permitted
Each poster is A3 sized and folded twice into a booklet. They are limited editions.
First issue will be out very soon!

Senate Bill Would Raise License and Registration Fees
(Host) The Senate on Wednesday afternoon gave its preliminary approval to legislation that increases dozens of motor vehicle fees in order to raise almost ten million dollars for a variety of local road and bridge repair projects.
Under the bill, the cost of registering a car will jump from $42 a year to $49, a four year license will rise from $20 to $30 and fees for special vanity plates will also go up.
Windsor Senator Peter Welch says many of the fees have not been adjusted since 1989 and Welch says the goal of the bill is to help reduce the burden on local property taxes:
(Welch) "We've had stories from people in every county in the state about local roads that are in dramatic need of repair and you know it gets worse. One thing about highways is, if you postpone maintenance ¿ you defer it too long ¿ ultimately it will catch up with you. And by the time you do it, it ends up costing two, three, four times as much if you did it in a timely way."
(Host) The legislation is expected to come up for final consideration in the Senate on Thursday. A similar bill has already been approved by the House.

When in Rome – Corporate EditionTo say that Rome wasn't built in a day is a gargantuan understatement. Building an empire is essentially like building a business. Both require continuous planning, meetings, negotiations, and organization. Most importantly, they both need a sufficient place to conduct all of this. But, instead of visiting the Roman Forum, we suggest that you run your empire from some of Italy's more modern meeting spaces, like these business hotels in Rome!

The search for a new Paducah Economic Development leader has begun following the resignation of Chad Chancellor a week ago.
Chancellor, who has been PED president/CEO for four years, announced he is stepping down to start his own business to focus on bringing jobs to the South and, ironically, helping communities find qualified candidates to lead their economic development efforts.
"I'll probably do some head-hunting (among other things)," Chancellor said. "I would like to help communities find the right people."
Economic development is an industry unto itself, according to Chancellor.
"You have to have a developer's mindset, just as if you were a landowner developing a subdivision," Chancellor said, pointing to the need to understand all the variables that go into a project, such as taxes, zoning, politics and finances.
Ken Hunt, PED board chairman, is leading the search panel - composed mostly of the organization's executive committee - to find Chancellor's replacement. The group has met and designed a search strategy, he said. Ideally, the group would like to hire someone in time to have some overlap with Chancellor, who is scheduled to leave Sept. 16, Hunt said.
"Right now, we're meeting weekly," Hunt said. "We may step it up once we identify the folks we want to talk to."
The group will cast a broad net, then work down to a half-dozen candidates or so and decide how many to bring in for interviews. For now, the field is open.
"I don't think we'll limit ourselves to any one geographic area," Hunt said. "Obviously someone familiar with Kentucky and the South, someone with a feel for the way things work in this part of the country" would be a good candidate, he said.
The group will advertise in trade publications and may consult head-hunter organizations, said Hunt.
Sandra Wilson, president of the Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce, is a member of the search committee, and was also involved in the hiring of Chancellor. She has a good idea of the most important qualification for the position.
"For me, it's someone who can sell our community and close the deal," Wilson said. "You have to be willing to make cold calls, and have a vision of selling this community over all the other communities throughout the whole country. You have to have the talent to close the deal."
Hunt agrees with that assessment. He also feels the area itself, with its high quality of life, access to transportation and a quality workforce, has a lot going for it.
"Paducah does a pretty good job of selling itself," he said.

I bought this product with high hopes that it would help me with my blackhead issue on my nose and chin. Unfortunately, it does not mix well with my skin type. It caused my face to get very red and hurt until I rinsed it off and put moisturizer on. I would recommend to those who have a different skin type. I have very sensitive skin, and will continue on my search for the perfect product!2

Today is world AIDS day....... so let me Share little i know about AIDS with you......
Most of us till date, must have known how HIV spreads, the 4 common ways (credit: media and govt), now lets look beyond that..........
1) HIV may take about 10 yrs to show the symptoms of Aids, Lets recall that Srinivasa Ramanujan died at an early age of 32, a true example of wat can be achieved in a shorter time. So never loose hope.
2) 40 persent of those infected are in the age group of 15-25 years. So greater probablity that you can come across a person effected with HIV. Be Cautious!!!!
3) HIV doesnt spread by affection or day to day activities, and even by kissing. So, lets spread love amonng our frnds infected with HIV
4) HIV doesnt spread through mosquito bite.
5) There is till date no permanant cure for AIDS. But nutritious food and healthy habits can surely delay the symptoms of aids.
So frnds lets get together and fight against AIDS.... and remember not against people effected.
The Simple rule to avoid getting infected is "BE CONSCIOUS"

Not exactly your problem, but maybe it helps. Furthermore, the

North Carolina Nursing 100 Years Later
The North Carolina Nurses Association is the professional association for all registered nurses in the state. It is a state affiliate of the American Nurses Association. NCNA members can participate at the national, state and local level through a system of districts. In addition, 23 specialty nursing organizations are Organizational Affiliates of NCNA and bring their particular viewpoint to the issues surrounding nursing practice in the state.
Throughout its 100 years of representing nursing in the state, NCNA has led the way in many legislative changes which benefit both registered nurses and the patients they care for.
For many years, NCNA has led a coalition to increase the number of school nurses with the goal of having a school nurse in every school. Currently, there are counties who have no school nurses while others have a ratio of one to every 3500 students. School nurses not only care for many chronically ill students, but are seen as experts in identifying children with specific health care needs
In 2001, newly-elected Governor Mike Easley declared the first decade of the 21st century as the Decade of the Nurse. The proclamation honors the 92,000 registered nurses in North Carolina for their role in advocating for proper health care for citizens when those citizens cannot speak from themselves; and for their role in providing for the health and well-being of their patients while often placing their patients' needs above their own.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of professional nursing in North Carolina. The celebration will start with a gala reception and premiere showing of North Carolina Nurses: A Century of Caring on October 14 at the BTI Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh. It will continue in 2003 with a large gathering of nurses and nursing students to commemorate the 1903 passage of the first Nursing Practice Act in the United States. Through the past 100 years, North Carolina nurses have had a lot to celebrate and be proud of.
And now the association is issuing another "call to the profession." North Carolina is moving into another nursing shortage. Many hospitals and long term care facilities are already feeling the shortage. NCNA will continue to work with the NC Center for Nursing on their recruitment and retention efforts and with the NC Hospital Association to try to make North Carolina hospitals the "best places to work in the United States." It's an exciting and challenging time to be the spokesperson for professional nursing in North Carolina.
If you would like more information about the North Carolina Nurses Association, please call 1-800-626-2153.

Single molecule microscopy approch provided novel insights into nuclear transport.
Date Published: 6/09/2010, Issue 40; doi: 10.3791/2040

1. Preparation of the cell system for single molecule experiment
2. Preparation of essential proteins for nuclear transport experiment
3. Single molecule microscopy
4. Representative results
Performed correctly, our protocol allowed us to collect a series of videos demonstrating the translocation of single cargo molecules interacting with the nuclear pore complex in permeabilized HeLa POM 121 cells. (Fig 1). We set out to image and track the transient transport steps of dextran molecules through the NPC in digitonin-permeabilized HeLa cells stably expressing GFP-POM121. Cells were incubated with low concentrations of the labeled dextran molecules. The equatorial plane of the nucleus was brought into focus with a clear image of green ring of GFP fluorescence excited by a 488-nm mercury lamp light. A long-time exposure of GFP-NE enables us to obtain an excellent signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio to localize the middle plane of the NE. Previously 10 kDa dextran molecules were found to diffuse through the NE within approximately 2 ms with a spatial resolution of about 20-40 nm by a detection frame rate of 500 or 1000 Hz. Such a spatiotemporal resolution allows capture of only one to two diffusion steps of dextran molecules through the NPC which is not enough to elucidate more spatial information for passive diffusion. To capture more fine steps of dextran molecules within the NPC with a better spatiotemporal resolution, we have conducted two major improvements: (i) to adapt a faster detection frame rate of 2500 Hz to capture more fine diffusion steps; and (ii) to employ a higher illumination optical density to excite more photons from single molecules to obtain a higher spatial resolution. These improvements enable us to capture multiple steps of transient diffusion of alexa647-labeled dextran molecules across the NE by a 633-nm laser light at irradiance of 100 kW/cm2 with a spatiotemporal resolution of 12 nm and 400 ms.
As shown in Figure 1, a series of still images of typical transport events of dextran molecules were recorded. By tracking the spatial trajectories of individual transiting dextran molecules, the fine steps of diffusion through the NE were distinguished. We found that there are approximately 30% of interaction events with the NE have recognized originating and destination compartments. Among them, dextran molecules moving from the cytoplasm to the NE have two destinations: end in the nucleus after diffusing through the NE or move back to the cytoplasm after interacting with the NE The similar situations occurred for export events: dextran molecules starting from the nucleus enter the cytoplasm or diffuse back to the nucleus after interacting with the NE. Such image series contain information on the spatial position of the single molecules with regard to the NPC, as well as temporal information on the dwell time of the molecules through the NPC. By analyzing the trajectories of dextran molecules around the area of NE, the transport time, efficiency and entrance frequency can be determined. The transport time in our work can be identified as the import or the export time. They were defined as the average dwell time of dextran molecules within the NPCs that undergo the import or export. The import or export efficiency was defined as the percentage of the complete import or the export events over the sum of the complete and abortive events. The import or export entrance frequency refers the number of molecules interacting with the NE during a second.
Figure 1. Selected video frames of typical transport events of dextran molecules through the NE. (A) A cytoplasm-to-nucleus event. A single dextran molecule (red spot) started from the cytoplasm, interacted with the NE (green pixel line), and ended in the nucleus. The trajectories of the event (blue lines and open dots) were determined and superimposed with the NE (black line). The green and red lines represent 100 nm-distance from the NE on the cytoplasm and the nuclear side. C, the cytoplasm. N, the nucleus. Scale bar: 2 mm. (B) A cytoplasm-to-cytoplasm event.

Care must be taken to insure a proper colocalization of NE and single molecules during the experiment. It is also important to provide a high signal noise ratio, especially when the signal is low due to poor labeling or photobleaching. Localization precision is limited by background noise (arising from out-of-focus fluorescence, CCD readout noise, dark current and other factors).

Verizon Wireless (Basking Ridge, NJ, USA) has released a PDF containing information about a new network management and throttling system. Two new techniques will be implemented which include network optimization and transcoding technology designed to transmit data files more efficiently, reducing network load. Verizon will also cache less data, using less capacity, and size videos for the appropriate device.
This new network management system will only affect customers that subscribed to a data plan or feature on February 3, 2011 or after. This will only effect users that consume an "extraordinary amount of data and fall within the top 5% of Verizon Wireless data users." Verizon says they "may reduce your data throughput speeds periodically for the remainder of your then current and immediately following billing cycle to ensure high quality network performance for other users at locations and times of peak demand. This is designed to ensure that the other 95% of customers have a fast, reliable user experience.
According to the PDF, "the optimization process is agnostic to the content itself and to the website that provides it." The company also briefly touched on transcoding errors or artifacting that may result from compression: "While we invest much effort to avoid changing text, image, and video files in the compression process and while any change to the file is likely to be indiscernible, the optimization process may minimally impact the appearance of the file as displayed on your device."

Blue Lagoon: The Awakening Synopsis
In Blue Lagoon: The Awakening, overachieving high school student Emma Robinson (Indiana Evans) and slacker Dean McMullen (Brenton Thwaites) find themselves on the same class trip to Trinidad. Though they have little in common, Emma and Dean attend a wild party on a boat, and when Emma falls overboard during a police raid, Dean jumps in to save her. The pair drifts in a motorless dinghy until they end up stranded on a deserted island. While their parents desperately search for them, Emma and Dean are forced to rely on each other for survival, and the more time they spend together the more they realize their attraction to one another. Despite their differences, they eventually create a bond between themselves. But as days on the island become weeks and then months, Emma and Dean wonder if they'll ever be rescued or if their life on the Blue Lagoon will last forever. Denise Richards stars as Emma's devoted mother Barbara, who refuses to give up the search for her missing daughter. Christopher Atkins, who starred in the 1980 romance/adventure movie The Blue Lagoon, portrays Mr. Christiansen, a high school teacher who helps in the search for Emma and Dean.

Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
How things work:
All dogs and puppies that are brought in are checked for microchips, tattoos and other forms of ID in hopes of reuniting them with their owners. If no ID is found, we hold the dog for 3 days in hopes their owners come to claim them. If no one comes we temperament test them, vet check them, vaccinate them, and place them in our adoption program.
To help you in choosing the right dog for your personal situation, all of the adoptable dogs are assigned a colour. Each colour refers to the best home and best situation for that particular dog. Choosing the right match will ultimately improve the chances of a successful adoption for both the new owners and the dogs.
GREEN --- Should be good for all families
PINK -- Looking for a home with no other dogs
ORANGE -- Looking for an experienced dog owner
PURPLE -- Looking for a home with no children under 7 years
YELLOW -- Looking for a home with no children under 10 years
BLUE -- Looking for a home with no children under 14 years
BLACK -- Looking for a home with no children under 18 years
We will require you to fill out our questionnaire and adoption contract. If you are renting we will require a note from your landlord permitting you to have pets.
If you cannot adopt a friend please donate any new or used pet items.
Wish List...Please
1) Paper towels
2) Long nylon leashes
3) Large choke chains
4) Dog treats
5) Ball Point and Dry Erase pens
6) Dog shampoo
7) Collars
8) Brushes
9) Bleach
10) Grooming table
11) Kennels
12) Any other dog related items
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
