Heart to Heart was founded by the late Fr. Jim Willig in 1991, primarily to name and describe the parish missions that he was preaching once a month throughout the diocese of Cincinnati. His daily example of what it means to be a true follower of Jesus Christ has led many others to join him on his faith journey. His first book, Inspiration, has helped many who are suffering. His next book, Lessons from the School of Suffering, written with Tammy Bundy, describes his struggles as he was diagnosed with and battled stage IV renal cell cancer.
Heart to Heart is dedicated to spreading the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the four corners of the earth. The Lord has provided us with marvelous instruments to use in spreading His Good News of the Gospel and of Holy Scripture through the world wide web, audiocassettes, CDs, videotapes, DVDs and books.

China artist Ai Weiwei stays quiet after freed on bail
By Don Durfee and Chris Buckley
BEIJING (Reuters) - The dissident Chinese artist Ai Weiwei, whose detention in April ignited an international uproar, was released on bail Wednesday under conditions likely to keep the outspoken critic of Communist Party controls silent for now.
"I can't say anything more, because I'm on bail," Ai told reporters who had gathered outside his home after his release was reported by China's official Xinhua news agency.
His abrupt release came days before Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao heads to Europe, where Berlin and other capitals have been critical of Beijing's secretive detention of Ai and dozens of other rights advocates, lawyers and dissidents.
But the Chinese government cast its apparent backdown as a vindication of their controversial case. Xinhua said Ai was freed "because of his good attitude in confessing his crimes as well as a chronic disease he suffers from," citing the police.
A company that police said he controlled "was found to have evaded a huge amount of taxes and intentionally destroyed accounting documents, police said," according to Xinhua.
"The decision comes also in consideration of the fact that Ai has repeatedly said he is willing to pay the taxes he evaded," said the report.
Family members and supporters have said the outspoken 54-year-old artist was a victim of a crackdown on political dissent that intensified after overseas Chinese websites in February called for protests in China to emulate anti-authoritarian uprisings in the Arab world.
China's courts and police are firmly controlled by the ruling Communist Party, and it is unusual, but not unprecedented, for authorities to back away from a potential prosecution in a high-profile case like this. Continued...

----Original Post----
Now that I seem to have figured out how to not kill plants, I have decided to try my first actual scape. My 55g is pretty much a jungle now and has turned into a plant dump of sorts. So... enter the high-ish tech nano tank.
I wanted to see how little money I could spend on this. So far, the budget is set squarely at 60$.
Not bad for high-ish tech, huh?
This summer I found a 5.5g tank on the curbside near the university. No severe hard water stains, not too many scratches, good enough for a first attempt. If I can get it to work it'd be a nice replacement for my current desk tank.
I plan to set this up next weekend, hopefully, as soon as I can get the plants from someone around here. I think I have everything else. Any suggests?

Anyway, I think I'll do a dry start to get at least the foreground and midgrounds rocking.
Substrate is IN!
Attachment 42351
I'm thinking about using these lava rocks I found. I'd have to find a bigger one though to use as a center piece. Kind of dark.
Attachment 42352
Attachment 42353
planted the HC and a bit of hydrocotyle in DSM. The good thing about this is that these sorts of tanks are a dime a dozen... so I have plenty of posts to read if I get scared.
I still haven't decided what i'm going to do hardscape wise. When I can go hunt down a bonsai store, I'll see.
I'm going to try to rewire the fan so the battery is external. I wonder how that'll go...
5.5 day 5 by aweeby, on Flickr
Got some microsword today from a trade with scream-aim-fire! There's some hydrocotyle and a pot of HC chugging along through the akadama. I couldn't wait to go buy rocks, so Im hoping that part will come together a little later
now to sit back and wait. I'm waiting on some stauro repens to come in the mail so i can replace my hydrocotyle.
That light cost you most? I don't know if I can offer any high-tech-ish advise. All my tanks are just dirt + sand/rocks, and the cheapest light I could find :/
If you haven't gotten a filter yet I'd still do a HOB, perhaps AC20/30/50. They're only a few dollars apart. I don't think 50 on low flow would create a tornado in a 5g, if so you could always stuff it some more. But I like to overfilter.
Fauna I would stay away from schooling fish, they really need a 10g to have adequate swimming space. But you could get away with a couple CPDs, or a betta. I have 11 pygmaeus corydoras in mine :( but thinking of relocating them soon. I'd also say 3 platies but they would probably turn into 30 in a month.
get some RCS!
Whoa AC50? I mean, if I was doing some sort of tidal crash zone tank...but.... whoa. haha, I get the picture though. Need better flow. I'm using a lot of old stuff. I'll see what I have in the garage. At the lfs, the AC50s are like 65$... so that's a no go, even if I wanted a hurricane.
I got the light from an aquarium society auction, 10$. I'm anticipating that the pb tank, at 20$, is going to be the most expensive thing. Then you factor in the akadama+shipping it across an ocean... and well...
I used to have a ton of RCS outside in an old oil drum. I never fed them or changed the filter media and they still bred like rabbits. :icon_roll so... I might try something a little harder this time around. Maybe PFRs? Low grade CBS/CRS? I'm still on the fence.
Agh i'm so over livebearers. I have a fleet of oxblood mollies sitting in a tank outside... nice colors but they're so... idk. boring.
I'm interested to see where this goes! Looks like a good start, keep us posted :)
Amazon usually has pretty good deals on ac filters, I think the aquaclear 50 is $26 right now? http://www.amazon.com/AquaClear-50-P...0306594&sr=8-1
Got some staurogyne repens today. (thanks, Newman!) He sent tons so some of it went into this tank. Hopefully it'll transition well. HC is still chugging along steadily. I've had no melting so far. Fingers crossed. Pictures tomorrow, maybe. Now, to finish all this paperwork. aha.
need to get the hardscape in before everything grows too big...
Looking good! What's your plan for the hardscape? Still gonna use those lava rocks?
Thanks! But I'm probably not going to use the lava rocks. They're a little too dark for my taste. I was going to try and find a bonsai shop but i don't have any free weekends to bus down to the other side of the island, so I might just order seiryu from that that guy on the sns. Hopefully 5lb will be enough.
Most of the plants have just begun to settle in and spread out, so I have to hurry. ack
Haha yeah you better get on that! Don't want to have it fully carpeted before you get your hardscape in haha
I decided it would be worth it to pick out the centerpiece stone myself, so I visited Manini's shop on Monday. I ended up walking away with a good chunk of seiryu, some great plants, a book of glossy ada eyecandy, and a lot of helpful advice as well. He's a great guy, and his shop is amazing.
So after a good scrub, the centerpiece is in. I had to replant a few inches of plant material, but hopefully it won't make too much of a difference. Things are chugging along nicely. I wanted to be minimally invasive in placement, but i'm open to suggestions.
Going to order a few support stones soon. 2-3 sounds like it should do it.
some plans

Getting them started
We're in Florida for the winter.My son-in-law and I took the boys to a safety training session at the range.The instructor had a large turnout.He brought 6 .22's and each kid got to fire as much as they wanted.Our 11 year old's third session resulted in 20 rounds in 1 and 1/2 inches at 50 yards.The 10 year olds groups were about twice that.I was impressed with the instructor drilling into them that every gun is assumed to be loaded,every gun is pointed in a safe direction(downrange),and keep your finger off the trigger until your sure you want to fire and no rapid fire.
That's great on getting them disciplined that way. They will be great, safe sportsmans for you.
Teaching them the first time is the most important, nice going!
Early safety training is very important. Good job for taking them. You can continue the training by setting up an air pellet rifle rifle inside your garage to keep the learning fresh in their minds.
This instructor has sessions several times a month with various rifles and targets.The kids can come out as often as they like.
Thats awesome I love watching my daughters shoot & they love to do it whether bows or firearms & both are very good shots (better then dad)
I don't know why but they are steady as a rock with the rifles

Submitted to: Western Society of Soil Science
Publication Type: Abstract Only
Publication Acceptance Date: 4/9/1998
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Recent increases in confined feeding operations, specifically dairy and swine, in the Intermountain West require disposal of ever increasing quantities of manure and whey. Both materials add large quantities of P to the application sites over time. Many states are starting to regulate how and when these wastes are land applied. Most of the data available for making those decisions were not obtained on calcareous soils or in arid or semi-arid areas. A calcareous topsoil and a freshly exposed subsoil were fertilized with inorganic fertilizers, dairy manure and cheese whey. Twice as much P was added with the whey as with the manure. Nearly equal amounts of organic matter were added with the whey and manure. Organic matter added with the whey did not influence soil Organic Carbon (OC) concentrations while that added with the manure doubled the subsoil and increased the topsoil OC concentrations. Changes in OC and ortho-P and organic-P concentrations in saturation extracts and sodium bicarbonate extracts were measured once or twice a year for eight years. All four P measurement concentrations were linearly related to soil OC concentrations rather than the amount of ortho, organic or total P added to the topsoil or to the subsoil. These results suggest that organic waste application rates to arid calcareous soils should be based on soil test results rather than P application rates.

This site has been established for new applicants and renewal laboratories for the Biometrics Testing Laboratory Accreditation Program (LAP). On this site you will find important program information and links to documents required for successful participation in the program.
Program Description
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has requested establishment of the Biometrics Laboratory Accreditation Program (Biometrics LAP) by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) to accredit laboratories that perform conformance testing, interoperability testing, technology testing, scenario testing, and operational and usability testing for biometrics products (systems and subsystems) as defined in nationally and internationally recognized biometrics products testing standards of biometric systems and subsystems. The program will offer accreditation only in the areas where a need was expressed and the requirements have been provided, but it is designed to easily expand and accommodate requirements from any interested governmental agency or the private sector.
Laboratory accreditation requirements are derived from the elected scope(s) of accreditation. NIST Handbook 150 and NIST Handbook 150-25 govern the general and specific technical requirements for accreditation under the Biometrics LAP. Each scope of accreditation has at least one test method associated with it. NVLAP reserves the right to update, modify or rename the set of test methods associated with any scope of accreditation.
Proficiency Testing Requirements
At the present time, there are no required proficiency testing programs for biometrics testing.

The current production release of FreeSWITCH™ is version 1.6 created 8 September, 2015 with later point releases. This is the recommended version to install for production systems.The current release of sounds and prompts is 1.0.51 as of 9 October, 2014 .
FreeSWITCH™ version 1.4 is tagged END OF LIFE, so it is wise to test version 1.6 NOW and upgrade to it if all works as expected in your environment. If you find bugs or omissions, please file a ticket on JIRA so that version 1.6 is the best it can be. Thanks.
The template that we follow assigns even version numbers to production releases and odd version numbers to development branches. Where you see instructions to retrieve code like
git clone https://freeswitch.org/stash/scm/fs/freeswitch.git freeswitch.git
you can obtain a specific branch with the -b argument followed by 'v' concatenated with the version number, for example
git clone –b v1.6 https://freeswitch.org/stash/scm/fs/freeswitch.git freeswitch.git
FreeSWITCH Advantage Support
The FreeSWITCH Advantage provides commercial-grade support services based on a trouble-free installation package to get you up and running quickly and profitably.
Full details available at freeswitch.com
The git repository has been replaced by Stash. See the Makefile scripts for CentOS or Debian 7 or the Developers page under Community for specifics.
Pick Your Pill
The easiest way to get FreeSWITCH™ is to install the package for your operating system. Pre-built binaries are available for installation on some Linux and Unix distributions as well as Windows.
Debian 8 Package (FreeSWITCH 1.6)
Debian 8 Jessie (preferred)
Centos 7 Package (FreeSWITCH 1.6)CentOS 7 and RHEL 7
WindowsFreeswitch Installer .msi
The binary MSI installer is built each weekend from Git head, includes default modules and 8KHz sounds, and is available for both x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit).
If you require the very latest features or patches or wish to hack FreeSWITCH you may compile from source code. FreeSWITCH™ is available for source compilation on Unix and Linux distributions as well as Windows.
Debian 8 Jessie Source
FreeSWITCH™ 1.6 depends on a number of libraries included with Debian 8, which is now the distribution of choice for FS core development team. Follow the instructions on the Debian 8 Jessie page; refer to Debian Post-Install Tasks for finishing touches.
The comprehensive macOS guide contains instructions for setting up FreeSwitch™ on a Mac with features such as autostart, emailing voicemails and log management.
Special notes for building from source on OpenBSD.
Recently updated installation guide for SmartOS
The core developer team will only entertain bug reports on the latest Master branch code—it is impossible to debug old code that has long since changed and might have been patched already.
On this page you will find general information that applies to all installations of FreeSWITCH. Follow the links to your target operating system for specifics. The development team uses and builds against Debian 8 "Jessie". They recommend Debian because of its stable, yet updated, kernel and wide support.
How To
If you're new to FreeSWITCH™ consider purchasing the Mastering FreeSWITCH™ book and be sure to read this introductory article: http://www.linuxpromagazine.com/Issues/2009/106/TALK-SOFT.
Updating Binaries
Config Changes
In version 1.4 the names of a number of configuration settings were changed, so you can not simply use old config files on your new FreeSWITCH™ binaries.
Settings of the form sip_*_media have become rtp_*_media because they properly control RTP media streams, SIP has nothing to do with them.
For example, sip_secure_media is now called rtp_secure_media.
Deprecated Instructions
FreeSWITCH™ is developed on Debian 8 "Jessie" which is the much preferred platform. These instructions for older operating systems are maintained as a courtesy, but are unlikely to work without a great deal of effort.
Debian 7 Package (FreeSWITCH 1.4)
CentOS 6 Package
rpm -Uvh http://files.freeswitch.org/freeswitch-release-1-0.noarch.rpm
yum install freeswitch-config-vanilla
yum install sox freeswitch-sounds*
Enjoy FreeSWITCH!
These deprecated instructions are FreeSWITCH you may compile from source code. FreeSWITCH™ is available for source compilation on Unix and Linux distributions as well as Windows.
Debian 7 Source
Makefile that builds FreeSWITCH™ including libraries and build dependencies.
CentOS 6 Source
Makefile that builds FreeSWITCH™ including libraries and build dependencies.
Unix Variants
Mac OS X
Instructions for non-supported OS X systems and FreeSWITCH 1.4 can be found at Mac OS X Archive.
13 Comments
yum install freeswitch
Enjoy FreeSWITCH!
From what repo? base, epel - not found
Any current instructions for Raspberry PI?
There were some individuals porting FreeSWITCH over to RPi. I don't know how the recent FS 1.6 changes affect that effort, however. Many of the changes in FS 1.6 involved switching to system libraries in Debian 8 along with greatly improved video conferencing support. Since an RPi is not up to the task of video processing I'm guessing you could omit much of that if you want to stay current with FS 1.6 or use the 1.4 branch.
Ask and ye shall receive!
As far as I can tell, 1.6 means the end of hosting FS on R-Pi. In fact, there are no packages for arm in the repo. Guess I'll have to buy a NUC.
A core motto of FreeSWITCH is: "Don't glue the Lego pieces together"
FS is a modular system so you are not required to build every last piece, especially the extensive video components that come with 1.6 version. If you trim down what you build to the bare essentials there's no reason it should not run on RPi.
These wiki comments don't see much exposure, so you're much better off asking on the Freeswitch-users mailing list. I know there is interest out there, but it is up to those who have the interest and expertise in RPi to take the ball and run with it. I'm pretty sure the core team doesn't have the wherewithal to port FS to RPi or other architectures as they have their hands full just getting things right with Debian
I dug into the deps-most package found in the 1.6 installation instructions and attempted to manually install each of them. Out of 47 dependencies, I found 11 of them were not available in the raspbian repos. These are the packages that were not available.
libvpx2-dev | libvpx-dev (>= 1.4.0)
Can you offer any advice on how to determine which modules depend on these? I've searched a few in confluence and have found one reference to libyuv in mod_fsv, but I'm thiking there's got to be a better way to check if these are things I must have.
the windows binary listed above never seem to be updated since January 2015
The core team is working to update the Windows build system. God bless them since there are MANY changes that must be incorporated into the Windows libraries. The FreeSWITCH-users mailing list has the latest on that while it's underway.
how about add a wiki on compile with VS so others know if the sdk and other tools required to build FS 1.6
Is this not current enough?
Seeing how http-cache is now getting installed together with freeswitch-config-vanilla it would be awesome to see http-cache included in default Windows install package as well, do you have any comment on that?
Since Windows is not the core target environment, the core development team welcomes a Pull Request to include the necessary modules.

Taxation Update: Is a VAT increase coming soon?
April 15 2014
Since the 1999 crisis the rate of VAT in Thailand has been reduced to 7% from 10%. The actual VAT rate in the Thai Revenue Code is still 10% but successives governements have for the past 13 years renewed every year the emergency decret which reduced the VAT to 7%.
Now Virabongsa Ramangkura, chairman of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra's advisory team, proposed raising by 1 percentage point the value added tax (VAT), which currently adds 7 per cent to the cost of consumer products. "This would result in additional revenue of Bt60 billion for the country, which would enable us to ease other types of tax collection," he said. I'm not sure if the Government would indeed give back another way what he would be taking in with an increase of the VAT but for sure with what successive governements have been spending in public utilities projects there will be a time where the government will have to find other sources of income and increasing the VAT is always an easy way for a government to collect money
Therefore it is not impossible that VAT be increased soon
Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any question in relation to Thai Taxes or investing in Thailand

Ah, it is that time of the year in Australia when students are going off on sprees to display their intelligence of joy of living. It is Schoolies Week at the beach and one and all came come with scantily clad clothes, a good supply of alcohol and drugs galore to cavort with fellow students and display the virtues of having a liberal education. Oh, the police on Saturday night arrested about 30 schoolies for being drunk, but so far there are no reports of rape and murder and for that, one must be thankful. Police attribute their success in preventing the more serious crimes to a policy of zero tolerance. As one police official noted: "I'm pleased to say no serious assaults were reported, no sexual assaults and no robberies." Wow, isn't it great no one got killed while engaged in drunken outbursts of fun and mayhem!
The good news for those who were arrested is that the most common drug found was cannabis. UP with the cannabis and down with the coke is the best slogan one can have at such times of fun and education.

While this recipe could be made with cheddar cheese, as many corn recipes are, I prefer to use the more buttery Dutch cheese, Gouda. It has a nutlike flavor and when aged develops a pronounced flavor that is tangy and sharp, similar to cheddar. If Gouda is not available, try Edam. Both will give a newer, livelier taste to this delicious dish than the customary cheddar cheese.
This is one of those wonderful side dishes that can serve as both a starch and a vegetable. It is rich in flavor and is perfect for serving alongside roasted meats. Pair it with a roast turkey or chicken, and be prepared for the oohs and aahs of culinary compliments.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and green onion and sauté until the onions soften. Add the corn, salt, thyme, cayenne and black pepper, and cook until the corn is tender and warmed through, about 3 to 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the cream until blended. Stir in 1 cup of the grated Gouda and the corn mixture. Pour the mixture into a greased 5x8-inch baking dish. Top with the remaining Gouda and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes. The gratin is done when a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Top with the chopped parsley and serve warm.

HPU selects Vaughan poetry contest winner
January 08, 2014
HONOLULU — John E. Simonds of Aina Haina has been named the recipient of Hawai'i Pacific University's James M. Vaughan Award for Poetry. The annual contest has celebrated literary arts and writers in Hawai'i for more than a decade. Simonds will receive a $250 cash award and be recognized at HPU's 17th annual Ko'olau Writing Workshops, scheduled April 12, at HPU's Hawaii Loa Campus in Kaneohe.
Simonds' poem "Happy Hours" will be published in an upcoming edition of the new online version of Hawai'i Pacific Review, HPU's literary magazine. HPU Associate Professor of English Patrice Wilson, Ph.D., was this year's judge and said the poem, set at a beach park, was effective in showing contrasts.
"The poem captures the pre-sunset time and place of people jogging to work out. Even though the title is 'Happy Hours,' we find sadness and irony because of the images of the poem," Wilson said. "Light and dark, good and bad are present in this poem in a very creative way, as its form and rhythm emphasize the jogging and other habits that are going on in the park."
Simonds is a retired daily newspaper editor who has lived in Hawai'i for 38 years. A Bowdoin College graduate, he has been writing verse since the 1970s. Simonds is the author of "Waves from a Time-Zoned Brain" (AuthorHouse 2009) and has recently been published in Bamboo Ridge and New Millenium Writing.
The James M. Vaughan Award for Poetry is named after HPU alumnus James M. Vaughan, who established a fund to enhance the literature and poetry programs at the university. Since 2000, HPU has recognized a Hawai'i-based writer for an outstanding poem or group of poems.

- He is originally a classically trained pianist
- He did not formally study design.
- He is the designer of the now iconic Girl With the Dragon Tattoo book covers.
- Forget this bulleted list. Take a look at his collaboration with Mark Z. Danielewski and try to imagine how long it takes to create something this elaborately weird. That red thread on the sewing of the book's pages is rare, usually book thread is nearly invisible; the punctures on the book jacket are individual to each book. And then there's the latched case.
But one of the most distinctive aspects of Peter Mendelsund's career, and of his approach to design, is that he is a dedicated reader of the books that he creates covers for. "I was struck by how carefully he'd read the book. He fucking seemed to have studied it," writes author Ben Marcus, reflecting on Mendelsund's work for The Flame Alphabet.
His Kafka covers avoid many of the tropes that other publishers have relied on for decades: prison bars, author portraits, grotesque insects—these are things that are certainly emblematic of Kafka, but are really nothing like reading Kafka. In an interview on Design Matters, Mendelsund described pointed out that "when a designer shows you too much he robs you of imagination."
Mendelsund created a series that featured eyes: eyes where you could see prejudice, imagining, longing, eyes that were abstractions. The idea of perception is important in any author's work, but it gave something special to The Trial and The Metamorphosis: it let you in on the fact that Kafka is not just writing about individuals, he is specifically writing about how others treat them.
After fourteen years of notable work, Mendelsund has produced Cover, a collection of his book cover designs, published and rejected, and his thoughts on graphic design and publishing, which are both practical and poetic. At one point he asks, "What is a book cover?" and answers that it is "a skin," "a frame," "a reminder"—giving voice to important design theory that is usually never stated. Readers may want to read more of these musings can turn to his What We See When We Read, which is simultaneously published with Cover.
Mendelsund's work isn't just rebranding; in some cases, you might call it justice. His Doestoevsky covers are a welcome change from the countless attempts to illustrate characters and the time and place, or lazy recyclings of the same portrait of the author again and again.
Instead, Mendelsund uses geometric symbols to focus on theme and tone. The geometric crucifix he uses to frame the title of The Idiot is memorable, as are the swarm of red triangles that surround Demons (at first they seem cute, and then you become gradually uneasy with their arrangement).These are simple one- and two-color designs, made of geometric shapes, and yet they have more force than covers with three times the printing budget.
Mendelsund's cover for James Joyce's Ulysses is evocative of the "snotgreen sea" described inside, but it also conveys the book's intertextuality (many readers need at least one accompanying book to interpret it) by underscoring that "yes" in "Ulysses"—a word important for a book that was banned for almost ten years, and is central to the book's last chapter.
Mendelsund wants more that to just make a book cover a matter of pleasing graphics: "After all, how impoverished would our book-design jobs be if we didn't, as a rule, delve deeper? If we didn't interpret? If we didn't visually translate that which is most essential in a book?"
There's a price to be paid for this kind of close reading, which is that sometimes what best represents a book is not what might easily sell a book. For example, Mendelsund considers just how problematic it is to create a cover for Lolita. He rejects the "soft-core" covers, which seem to be easily generated by designers who are not interested in the many problematic aspects of the book, one of which is that we are hearing about this supposed romance from a liar, pervert, and murderer. He sides with a cover that could have been made by Lolita, rather than her assailant.
Midway through Cover, Mendelsund reflects on ebooks in "Reading in the Digital Age: Aphorisms for a Future Book," set in confounding vertical lines of type with the puzzling first bullet point: "Who speaks for the static? Who speaks for the immutable?" He then presents a series of book covers culled from Photoshop gradient effects.
It's a proposal for a new kind of publishing imprint, and it all feels conceptually sound, but doesn't inspire the pleasure of seeing the cover for Ben Marcus's The Flame Alphabet or Adam Ross's Mr. Peanut. Or his Joe Nesbo covers, so stark they can be recognized from a helicopter. There's no engaging typography, no unique images to speak of in these covers, and it gives the impression of a one-size-fits-all design for a digital future. It seems a bit grim.
In that same tone is the muddled quality of the book's foreword and afterword, where Mendelsund spends a lot of time saying that he has never considered himself a designer until the publication of this book, affirms that he is a designer, and then concludes the book by stating that his future as a designer is uncertain. What?
"I fear that design is for the young" he writes, italics his own. He wonders if he will be able to reinvent himself, if he will develop a late style, he feels that older designers work is not as good as when they started out.
All of these denials seem to go beyond modesty and into fretting, which is perverse given how rich Cover is with design inspiration and meditations on graphic design. But I think there is hope: Up until he was 30, Mendelsund hadn't considered being a designer at all.

Find an advocate in your area
Domestic violence programs in Oregon
Legal Aid Offices in Oregon
Oregon State Bar, Lawyer Referral Service
Confidential Name Change Packet
You must be over age 18 and an active participant in the Address Confidentiality Program to be eligible for a confidential name change.
Changing your name is a big decision. It may not be an easy or lasting way to stay safe or hide from your abuser. As a participant in the Address Confidentiality Program, chances are you already have made hard choices in order to protect your safety. Before taking the additional step of changing your name, you should think carefully about the risks and benefits. This will help you decide if a confidential name change is right for you.
An attorney and/or an advocate at a domestic violence program can help you think about the good or bad effects of changing your name. The "Other Resources" on this page can help you find an attorney or program to help you make a safety plan and decide if a name change is a good idea for you.
Your name is not the only way your abuser could find you. In addition to, or instead of, changing your name, you may want to do two other things to stay safe:
Even if you change your social security number, the Social Security Administration will link your old name with your new name. They may also share this information with federal and state agencies, including law enforcement. Your credit report may also link your old and new names. If you get help from Oregon's Department of Human Services (DHS), such as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) or the Oregon Health Plan, it is very important to talk to your worker about protecting your new name.
You may not be able to change or hide all of the details about your life. Your abuser may be able to get information about you on the Internet or from family members, friends, or former co-workers. Your abuser might use electronic surveillance (GPS) or other technology to track you and learn your new name.
If you have minor children, your abuser may be able to find you through information about your child. In most cases, Oregon law does not allow you to change your child's name without telling the other parent. Also, Oregon law usually lets parents see their child's school, medical, or government records. These records may have information about your name or where you live. Your abuser could also find out your new name during a divorce or custody case.
Are you sure you would like to leave?

The photocatalytic activity of Fe/ZnO/SiO2 catalysts under visible-light irradiation for the degradation of methylene blue was evaluated. The effect of pH, illumination time, amount of catalyst loaded, and initial dye concentration on the degradation efficiency of methylene blue was investigated. The results reveal that the optimum photocatalytic oxidation conditions of methylene blue are as follows: and illumination time is 30 min, the amount of catalyst loading is 0.075 g/L and 50 ppm methylene blue dye concentration. Under these conditions, the removal efficiency of methylene blue was 100%.

The swivel-head design of Hurco's five-axis VMX42SRTi features a flush rotary table that is embedded to provide an additional 3.5" of clearance in the Z axis for taller parts. The A- or C-style rotary table operates with unlimited angular movement, reducing cycle times because the table isn't forced to unwind multiple times during the machining cycle, the company says. X-, Y- and Z-axis travels measure 42" × 24" × 24", and rapid traverse rates are 1,378, 1,378 and 1,181 ipm in the X, Y and Z axis, respectively. The system is equipped with a 12-K integral spindle, a 40-station swing-arm automatic toolchanger and an integrated Hurco control with both conversational and NC programming modes. Additionally, Hurco's UltiMotion motion control system is said to improve surface finish quality and reduce cycle time.
The company will also display its VMX42i three-axis mill, VMX24HSi high speed mill and TMX8MYSi multitasking lathe with subspindle.

Mets Sign Brian Bixler To Minor League Contract11/16/2012 1:54 PM ET
N.Y. Mets Media Relations / Las Vegas 51s
FLUSHING, N.Y., November 16, 2012 - The New York Mets today announced the club signed infielder/outfielder Brian Bixler to a minor league contract with an invitation to major league Spring Training.
Bixler, 30, split last season between Houston and the organization's Triple-A club, Oklahoma of the Pacific Coast League. The 6-1, 195-native of Sandusky, OH, made Houston's Opening Day roster and in 36 games with the Astros, he hit .193 (17-88) with two home runs and seven RBI. Bixler, who hits and throws righthanded, appeared in 75 games with the RedHawks last season, going 67-249 (.269) with three home runs and 19 RBI.
Originally selected by Pittsburgh in the second round of the 2004 First-Year Player Draft, Bixler, made his major league debut in 2008 with the Pirates. He also spent time in Cleveland and Washington's organization, appearing in 79 games with Nationals in 2011. Over 183 major league games, Bixler is a .189 (61-323) hitter with two home runs and 14 RBI.

Authorities step up police presence in Tacna, Peru ahead of ICJ border dispute ruling
By Rachel Chase
Officials hope to keep disturbances from becoming violent in days leading up to ruling on maritime border dispute between Chile and Peru.
Authorities in the Peruvian border town of Tacna are hoping to prevent disturbances in the days leading up to the historic ruling on the long-standing maritime border dispute between Peru and Chile.
According to Peru21, Minister of the Interior Walter Albán announced today that a contingent of Peruvian National Police officers has been sent to Tacna as part of an effort to ramp up security in the city.
Albán stated that the extra police force was meant to avoid "any demonstration that could put public tranquility at risk." The minister also indicated that similar steps are being taken by Chilean officials to safeguard order in the Chilean border town of Arica.
Government officials on both sides of the dispute have repeatedly urged calm and cooperation between the nations no matter how the International Court of Justice rules. In a statement released to press, Peruvian Foreign Minister Eda Rivas said "Whichever way the verdict would go it will help us to turn the page in order to look forward and pursuit both nations' development. I see with pride that between Tacna and Arica there is great fraternity, which is important."
Peru21 reports that 20,000 Chileans visit Tacna every day.

CLers, I'm stumped by a situation that I'm about to get myself into. I am looking to purchase a car from an individual seller in another state. Maryland requires I have the title in hand to get temp tags in order to drive the car but yet i can't get the title and the car to my house without driving it back.
Is there another way around this or a loophole?
Should I say FUNK IT!! and insure it and drive it home to my garage without tags and deal with things normally from there?
I'm crazy like Elvis! I'll do it, I swear!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Lightning as a Family Daysailer?
Go for the Lightning. The cockpit is big enough to allow the kids to invite friends, and the existing fleet will provide boats for you to buy AND a market if you decide to sell later. Racing can be a good way to meet new friends and keep daysails from becoming boring to soon-to-be-teenagers. The large sail area is great for keeping moving when the wind is light, and stunning performance if it picks up (planing with just the main&jib is a real trip!!) The hard-chine hull provides excellent initial stability, so you have enough time to react to puffs (or lulls) that lakes are notorious for. (Round-chined dinghies tend to be crewed by guys in wetsuits.)
I''ve found Lightnings very comfortable to crew on because of the seats inboard (use the coaming for a backrest), the wide side decks (don''t cut off circulation) and the nice, flat foredeck. (great for stretching out in the shade of the jib if there''s no breeze), Lightnings are also beautiful to look at. Few boats that will meet your needs so easily can make that claim as well.
Lightning as a Family Daysailer?
The Lightning if it is fitted out to race as most of them are is not a very comfortable boat. All the good places to sit have hardware on them. The few times I''ve raced on them I''ve come home bruised. A better boat of the same size for family sailing would be the Flying Scott. Much better suited to your purpose.
Lightning as a Family Daysailer?
My earliest memories are of family outings on the Mississippi River in a Lightning. It is a wonderful boat (especially a wooden one.) Stable, forgiving, yet capable of offering a racing challenge; one of the greatest boats for all time.
Lightning as a Family Daysailer?
Look no further! The lightning is the quinessential family daysailer. You can do no wrong in getting one. The longevity of the Sparkman & Stephens design alone (it was penned in 1938!) and the number of boats built (over 15,000) should testify to its ability to please all levels of sailors.
One step down from the Lightning is it''s little sister, the Blue Jay. Basically a lightning in 3/4 scale. It may be a bit cramped for more than 3 at a time though.
Both are easy to sail, with the Lightning adding more sophisticated sail handling systems.
Either are my personal favirites in that class of boat.
Lightning as a Family Daysailer?
We are a family of three; the youngest is going on 7 and is becoming more interested in sailing. We own a Laser (too small to take all three of us) and a San Juan 21 (too big for some of the lakes near us). So we''re contemplating maybe adding another boat -- a daysailer that''s performs well, can accommodate the family and maybe a guest or two on an outing, and can easily be launched on a shallow ramp for a quick afternoon sail. Budget is always a consideration; we do have experience with "project" boats (both the Laser and the San Juan 21!) and would consider a restoration project, or even building our own.
While racing is not a top priority for us right now, we have none-the-less benefitted from the active class associations for both the Laser and the San Juan 21. The Yacht Club on the small lake nearest to us has a small fleet of Lightnings (as well as a larger fleet of Sunfishes).
So what about the Lightning? It looks like an interesting boat. Would it meet our needs? It''s available in a wide range of ages, conditions, and cost, and one can even purchase building plans and instructions.
Are there other boats that we ought to consider?

Dempster holds off Sox, nets first Rangers win
Dempster holds off Sox, nets first Rangers win
Both had a rough time last week in Arlington, but both were on their game Tuesday night in pitching the Rangers to a 6-3 victory over the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Dempster, who allowed eight runs in 4 2/3 innings against the Angels last Thursday, held the Red Sox scoreless through six innings before giving up a three-run home run to Will Middlebrooks with two out in the seventh. He left at that point with a 4-3 lead, but the Rangers' bullpen closed it down, the offense added a couple more runs and Nathan, pitching for the first time in five days, earned his 22nd save of the season.
That allowed the Rangers to snap a two-game losing streak after a 9-2 loss to the Red Sox in the three-game series opener on Monday night and they have now won five of their last seven.
"It was a good bounce-back win after last night," manager Ron Washington said. "It was certainly a big game. We didn't want to go down 0-2. Now we tied the series and have a chance to win it."
Dempster put them in that position with his first victory for a team that drafted him 17 years ago.
"It's awesome," Dempster said. "Drafted by the Rangers on June 1, 1995, I didn't think it would take this long, but it's a nice feeling."
Especially considering what happened on Thursday against the Angels.
"There was a lot of emotion in that first start," Dempster said. "I didn't do a good job of executing, but tonight I did much better. It comes down to executing pitches and I did a better job of it."
Catcher Geovany Soto, who was also acquired from the Cubs last week and has been behind the plate for both of Dempster's starts, said the difference on Tuesday night was being able to keep the ball down.
"He left a couple of pitches up early in the game, but after the second or third inning, he was really keeping the ball down and executing," Soto said. "In Chicago, that's what he was doing most of the time and he showed that tonight."
Dempster hooked up against Red Sox left-hander Jon Lester in a pretty good pitching duel. The Rangers were held scoreless on two hits through five innings before scoring two in the sixth and two in the seventh. They also added single runs in the eighth and ninth.
The Rangers had 10 hits, although just one for extra bases. That was a double by David Murphy to open the sixth. But in the final four innings, the Rangers worked three walks plus a hit batter, stole a base, got a run on a sacrifice fly and twice moved runners into scoring position with the hit-and-run. They were also 5-for-11 with runners in scoring position.
"We just worked some counts when we could," Murphy said. "Lester had great stuff. He has good stuff period and he was locating well. The umpire had a small strike zone tonight and that helped. We just tried to do whatever we could to put runs across. We just had a solid offensive game against a pitcher who has good stuff."
Dempster took a four-hit shutout into the seventh. With one out, Jarrod Saltalamacchia grounded a single through the right side just off first baseman Mitch Moreland's glove. After Mike Aviles flied out, Ryan Kalish hit a grounder that Ian Kinsler fumbled with a backhanded attempt for an error.
That brought up Middlebrooks, who was pinch-hitting for Nick Punto at the bottom of the order, and he crushed one just over the left-field wall for a three-run home run. The Rangers asked and got a review, believing a fan in the Green Monster seats leaned out and caught a ball that might have hit the top of the wall instead of clearing it. After the review, the original call stood.
Robbie Ross took over for Dempster and finished the inning with one pitch, getting Jacoby Ellsbury on a grounder to short. Mike Adams pitched a scoreless eighth and that left the ninth for Nathan.
Nathan, after getting four days off, was pitching for the first time since his back-to-back outings against the Angels on Wednesday and Thursday. He allowed a combined four runs and threw 62 pitches in those games, prompting the Rangers to give him a couple days off. He also wasn't needed Sunday or Monday so he was well-rested on Tuesday night.
Nathan gave up a leadoff single to Saltalamacchia but got Aviles to ground into a double play before striking out Kalish to end the game.
"It was just a matter of getting a little bit of time to allow my arm to get some life back into it," Nathan said. "After those last couple of outings, I knew I was achy and stiff and forcing the ball. Four days off all together, that definitely helps out. I felt a lot better, a lot sharper and a lot crisper."

Dear people of earth,
You did not come from monkeys.
Common ancestor..... Monkeys, no. Apes also no, although we are closely related to them.
k bye.
eta: I can't belive lady gaga and Lindsay lohan are friends. I don't approve of their friendship. Because I own lady gaga, obviously. But like really? She's like the person you don't hang out with because they'll ruin your reputation in those movies, (usually because said person is promiscuous, in this case an ex crack head / still a crack head possibly with no proof but most likely cause she was recently accused of stealing and blamed it on sugabear knight's son, cause she's on drugs) . I has to side eye this fwendship. Totally sketch, totally makes me not want to listen her music ever again. That being said, I totally like Lindsay lohan, on a I-love-mean-girls-so-I-will-always-love-you level, but not both together.

A passionate community committed to playing, learning, and growing together, Powers Music School (Powers) is located in Belmont, Massachusetts. The school traces its roots to 1964 when the Music Committee of the Belmont Community Center sponsored Belmont's first Piano Festival and enrolled 12 recorder students.

Powers is governed by a 17-person board of directors led by President Ernest Sabine.

The school offers music instruction and performance in three locations in Belmont. For the fiscal year ending August 31, 2016, Powers reported $1.41 million in total revenue, of which 6 percent was contributed income. Total expenses equaled $1.45 million, including more than $52,000 in financial aid and scholarships. The endowment is approximately $1.46 million.
Belmont, Massachusetts is a vibrant residential community of 25,000 people, centrally located within the Greater Boston metropolitan area.

Message from grave: keep killing the infidel
HARDLINE Muslim groups rallied outside the family home of Imam Samudra, distributing a letter they claim was written by the late Bali bomber calling on supporters to continue his fight against enemies, including Israel and the US.
About 300 people gathered around the home of Samudra's mother in the village of Lopang Gede in West Java before his burial yesterday. Thousands more were waiting at the local mosque and the cemetery, where Sumudra was buried next to his father.
Samudra, along with fellow bombers Mukhlas and Amrozi, was executed early yesterday.
Members of an extremist group, the Islamic People's Forum, were carrying posters with a photo of Samudra and the slogan: "Mujahid Bukan Terroris", meaning "Islamic Warrior not Terrorist".
As Samudra's body was handed over to the family of his wife, the crowd chanted "Allahu Akbar" or "God is Great".
Those chants followed the coffin, draped in a black and gold Muslim prayer mat, as it was carried to the mosque and then to the grave.
Supporters of radical cleric Abu Bakar Bashir attempted to protect the coffin from the crowds.
Police said Sumadra, a 38-year-old computer expert, had decided where to place the bombs and chaired meetings to plan the attack, which ripped through two Bali nightclubs just over six years ago, killing 202 people, including 88 Australians.
He is said to have learned bomb-making techniques while fighting with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Samudra, one of 12 children raised by a single mother, was known as the "spiritual" leader among the three bombers, having studied religion.
He was also accused of being involved in the bombings of churches across Indonesia in 2000, which killed 19 people, and to have played a role from his jail cell in the 2005 Bali bombings, which killed 20 people.
The letter, allegedly written by Samudra and distributed among the crowd yesterday, told supporters "the war was not over", and urged them to teach their grandchildren to fight the enemy and kill all non-Muslims.
A police official said hundreds of police had been deployed throughout Banten province in West Java in a bid to boost security.

When the 3rd gen of milleniums came out, I bought the PT145 Pro SA/DA. I have not had any FTF's or FTE's with any of them. I'm not sure why some people complain that these guns are inaccurate but I have no problems shooting them and hitting the targets.

I want a nice holster for my PPS as I have been using a cheapie for a while. It has worked good enough, but now that there are plenty of holsters for this gun, I want to get a new one!
I have been carrying appendix carry but might move to 4 o clock position. I wouldn't mind having 0 cant and a low profile holster to enable to me to move back and forth between the two.
I definitely want a single clip holster to make removal quick and easy.
I have a Crossbreed SuperTuck for another gun and I love the holster, and like to support them. I also hear good things about Comp-Tac holsters and the Pro Undercover is a little more low profile.
What is the general opinion? Other holster recommendations are open as well, but I don't really want to spend more than $65. I looked at a few high noon holsters and $90 for a small PPS holsters is a bit ridiculous :gah:

Expert in Children's Executive Function Visits CASTL
Published on 04/01/13 in News » Articles
This week the Center for Advanced Study of Teaching and Learning (CASTL) is hosting a visiting scholar from the Institute of Child Development and the Center for Neurobehavioral Development at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Stephanie Carlson is an expert in early childhood research that uses multiple methods and cross-cultural studies. Although Carlson has interests in theory of mind and pretend play, she will be mainly focusing on work relating to the development of children's executive function (the self-control of thought and action).
Carlson, who is a Co-PI on a grant to develop an executive function intervention for homeless/highly mobile children, noted, "I'm interested in how to implement and scale up educational interventions. CASTL is a leader in successfully completing these types of projects, and I'm hoping to learn more about challenges of this type of work."
She will be meeting with researchers and graduate students at CASTL during her visit, as well as key faculty from the Psychology Department. Discussions will center around some of the lessons learned from large-scale interventions, like the National Center on Research in Early Childhood Education (NCRECE) and the development of observational tools, like the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS), both work completed at CASTL.
Carlson is also the lead on a number of grants to develop new measurement tools for educators and researchers. "I'm interested to learn how the CLASS has evolved into the wide-scale measure and popular program it is today," said Carlson. "Then apply this to my work as the need for assessing executive function in early childhood is reaching beyond clinical and basic research purposes toward school readiness, classroom behavior, learning and achievement."
She will be leading a Guest Lecture sponsored by CASTL on Tuesday April 2nd from 12:30-1:30 PM in Bavaro Hall (Rm. 116, Holloway Hall) entitled "Measuring and promoting executive function in young children." The audio files of her talk and resources provided during the lecture are available online.
Dr. Carlson is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association (Div. 7) and the Association for Psychological Science, is Vice President of the Jean Piaget Society, and serves on several editorial boards including Child Development.
