The Biggest Book In Woodworking
There are many contenders for the most important book in woodworking, and the best book in woodworking is a subjective subject. However I probably can tell you what's the biggest book in Woodworking. Thomas J. Beveridge's 1921 "English Renaissance Woodwork 1660-1730: A Selection of the Finest Examples of Monumental and Domestic Woodwork of the Later Renaissance in England, Chiefly of the Period of Christopher Wren" is only 80 plates long but at 19" high by 14", it covers an entire settle seat and doesn't fit in any shelf I own. It's a problem and I still haven't figured out how to store it. I don't know of any larger woodworking book.
The book is a series of 80 plates, each detailing various bits of late 17th century architectural woodwork. This is the time of Moxon, Christopher Wren, the rebuilding of London after the great fire, and in general a time of exuberant architectural woodworking. You really see in the work a general expansion of design that we didn't see in the sixteenth century (Cromwell might have had something to do with that). Between the rebuilding of London, the end of Puritan England, a new availability of metal due to the first ideas of the Industrial Revolution, not to mention England's new wealth as a international trading giant, and finally a rise in skilled work and better tools we get some wonderful pieces of work.
For me the book is a great reference of architectural carving designs. For the original 1920's audience I wonder if the book was a reaction to the modernism sweeping Europe, or a sympathetic wave to the neo-colonial movement in America? I don't know.
I don't know of an electronic version of this book, it is, however, not that rare and most good library systems should have a copy.
In other news: Next weekend is
The Woodworking Shows in Somerset NJ
. See you there!
This past week we launched a new glue,
Nexabond 2500
, instant glue, is is designed to set up in only a few minutes and be far more friendly to stains and finishes than yellow glue. Is is a one part glue and doesn't need to be mixed, or shaken up before us.
PS - Sorry about the photos - I got the idea for this blog on Tuesday night, and all I had was my phone and bad lighting.

Joel, must have been the period. In this publishing style, I have "The Wood Carver" by J. S. Gibson, 3rd ed 1906 that is 18.25" x 11.5". Some of the full-size design sheets are folded in 4, so 36.5" x 23"! All design sheets are printed on one side, and regrettably 2 sheets have been (neatly) cut out.
I do have a book shelf that is _just_ big enough
Cheers Peter

There was a lot of God-talk in the episode of Fringe "The Consultant." Discussing a case which (like almost all of them on Fringe) involved someone dying under unusual circumstances, the subject comes up whether God killed the man in question, as Walter quotes from Romans 1. Walter adds that some would say that God kills all of us – although usually in a less violent manner.
There is also a reference to there being no miracles in the sense of miraculous recoveries from illness, and we found out in this episode why Col. Broyles in the other universe was working for David Robert Jones: Jones was providing Broyles with medicine to save his son, who would otherwise have been suffering in pain. Interestingly, in the earlier timeline, Broyles' son was kidnapped and experienced side effects from a procedure that robbed him of his youth. Whether we are supposed to connect the two is unclear. Perhaps what Jones is treating him for is the effects of what was done to him in that earlier episode, or perhaps things have unfolded differently since time was rewritten and in this new timeline Christopher, Philip Broyles' son, suffers from some sort of illness.
Either way, there are several ethical and also religious connections one can see in this plot element. First, there is the withholding of access to medical care in order to manipulate people, something that ought to discuss the lack of free and universal access to medical care in many societies today, including the United States. Second, there is a comparison to be made between Broyles' decision to turn himself in at the end of the episode, and the character of Abraham in the Bible. Broyles' action would cause his son pain and presumably ultimately cost his son's life. Abraham offered his son to the seemingly arbitrary whim of a deity as conceived by ancient near eastern people. Broyles put his son's life on the altar, as it were, to save universes. There is also the seeming ability of technology to provide "miracles" which religious faith does not, and certainly not as consistently. There's a lot to talk about in this episode as pertains to religion.

Today begins the spring Navratri. Nine nights of honoring Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati. It's very similar to Mahanavratri, which occurs in the fall, and is the major Shakti festival of all the Navratris.I've had this on my calendar for months. But for the last week or so I thought I would pass on observing. There's just so much on my plate right that I really don't feel I can keep up. My family is buying a house and moving in two weeks. I'm fully pregnant with two kids already to care for. … [Read more...]

Why Not Wicca
When I get asked what my religion is I almost always answer "Pagan" and move on from there. Usually the first response is "Oh, you're Wiccan?" I also get "Oh, my mother-in-law/niece/cousin's girlfriend/and so on is a Wiccan!" Without fail I tell them I'm not Wiccan. Part of this is a desire for clarity (I practice an American form of Traditional Witchcraft and have a Hindu devotion). Part of it is a desire not to be lumped in with Wiccans. Because, in all honesty, I'm a hater.When I began my … [Read more...]
Maxim Monday: Flee a Pledge
The snarky lady in me wants to say this Maxim is telling us not to join fraternities or sororities. Or maybe that we should not date freshman pledging into the Greek system. I'm no fan of the Greek system, but I don't think this Maxim is about our modern social networks.I think it's a reminder that if we need to pledge something we might want to think twice - or flee from the obligation. Do we need to make a promise? Pledge money? This reminds me of how when my family was more financially … [Read more...]
Kali Puja
Several people for the last year or two have asked me to write about how I do devotions to Kali. Here is what I do. It is a combination of rituals I have gleaned online and in books, and elements of my Feri practice.BackgroundI honor Kali just about any time I sit down at my altar and light incense. Ganesh always gets the first wave of incense and prayer: "Jai Ganesh. May my worship be acceptable." Then I wave the incense before Kali and say "Jai Ma!"From there I may go into … [Read more...]
Birth as Edge Walking
Last month I entered my third trimester of my third pregnancy. I felt the shift about 10 days before the 'technical' date; I felt the fullness of my belly growing, the spread of my hips, and a certain mental shift. With my first child I didn't know what to expect; with the second and with this third one, I started out the pregnancies thinking, "Joy! I get to experience giving birth again! What a blessing!"And then sometime in my 6th month I woke in the night, and I knew I was entering the … [Read more...]
Maxim Monday: Recognize Fortune
Fortune can be defined as luck, serendipity, providence, coincidence, and the like. It can also be defined as wealth. Let's talk about both.I love little moments of serendipity. Are they divine acts? Sometimes I think so; sometimes I think they are just mere coincidences. Regardless, I like to recognize those moments and be grateful for them. I tend to equate acts of fortune with unexpected positive occurrences, although they can also be negative. I remember trying to go on a trip and … [Read more...]

PITTSBURGH — A man who pleaded guilty to trying to extort $15,000 from former Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Hines Ward will spend two years on probation.
The Associated Press could not immediately reach Joshua Van Auker, 26, for comment on his guilty plea which was entered with little fanfare Tuesday in front of an Allegheny County judge.
The attorney who represented Van Auker after his arrest last year tells the AP he had no part in the plea bargain. But court records show Van Auker plead guilty to a lesser version of the charge of attempted theft by threatening to expose a secret.
Authorities became involved after Van Auker text messaged Ward's assistant and threatened to release unspecified damaging information about a woman Van Auker dated who was allegedly previously involved with Ward.

As you go, proclaim the good news
I remember a silly story about a group of animals in the jungle who decided to have a football game. The problem was that no one could tackle the rhinoceros. Once he got a head of steam, he was unstoppable. When he received the opening kick-off, he rambled for a touchdown. The score was seven to nothing immediately. Somehow, they managed to keep the ball away from him the remainder of the first quarter. At the beginning of the second quarter, the other team tied the score 7 to 7.
The lion tried to warn the zebra on the kickoff not to kick it to the rhinoceros. But the zebra ignored the warning. The rhino caught the ball and there he was racing for the touchdown. Suddenly, out of nowhere, he was brought down with a vicious tackle. When the animals unpiled, it was discovered that a centipede had made the tackle.
"That was fantastic!" congratulated the lion. "But where were you on the opening kick-off?"The centipede replied, "I was still putting on my shoes."
Are we still putting on our shoes to serve God? God needs each one of us to be in the game of life sharing the good news!

A World Champion's perspective on poker: THERE'S NO LIMIT LIKE NO LIMITJanuary 14, 2013 - 1:30pm
by Doyle Brunson [Originally appeared in Poker Player Vol 1 Issue 1 pg. 3]
If I had to pick my favorite game, I guess it would be no-limit hold 'em. Poker is a game of people, and nothing brings this fact out as clearly as a no-limit confrontation.
When you're playing limit poker-even a big limit game like $200/400-you never have to face the fear of a man jumping up from out of nowhere and moving all-in against you. You can bet $400 on the last card knowing that worst thing-the VERY worst thing-that can happen is you'll get raised another $400.
If you've got some middling hand when that raise comes, then you've got to make a decision about whether to call or fold. That decision, though, doesn't pack the same agony that arises in a no-limit situation when you bet $400 and suddenly are facing a $5000 raise.
Power Poker: A State Of MindMarch 18, 2007 - 3:53am
I've always been a believer in attitude. If a man thinks he'll win at poker, then he's more likely to prevail. Confidence won't make you any luckier, but it can make you play better. Assuming you have enough skill to win, confidence will keep you from turning against yourself and letting self-doubt and panic prompt you to make poor decisions.
No-Limit ConfusionMarch 4, 2007 - 4:53am
The difference between limit and no-limit poker can be as broad as a Texas pasture stretching from here to the horizon.
Rochester Ricky didn't understand that difference. He was from New York and talked his way into our game in Fort Worth in the late sixties. He strutted in proud - some local champ from far away - and sauntered away quite sadly. He'd chosen a tough game. Besides me, there was Amarillo Slim, Puggy Pearson, Johnny Moss, and Sailor Roberts. All would turn out to be world champions in the future.
The Fifth FearFebruary 19, 2007 - 4:53am
I once wrote that there are five great fears that haunt gamblers. They are: (1) The fear of getting broke; (2) The fear of getting robbed; (3) The fear of getting arrested; (4) The fear of getting cheated; and (5) The fear of not getting paid.
Of course, I was writing about my early career as a poker player in Texas and the southern United States. There were no legal casinos there to protect you against robbery, arrest, cheating, or deadbeats. You were on your own. If you always play in a licensed casino, I guess the only real fear remaining is #1 - getting broke.
Participating in the Poker PartyFebruary 5, 2007 - 4:53am
Most players will participate in private games sometimes. These may be played among friends - your typical Friday night variety of poker. The purpose isn't only poker; it's purpose is also bonding.
The Wrong Reasons to Bluff in PokerJanuary 24, 2007 - 4:53am
Something that can destroy a bankroll in a hurry is bluffing for the wrong reasons.
Bluffing successfully can be gratifying. But it can also be addicting. And I've seen an addiction to bluffing humble the proudest of players.
It's FOOLISH to Flash MoneyJanuary 8, 2007 - 4:53am
Young poker players do foolish things. I Revolution wasn't one to frequently flash money, but it seemed to be a costly habit that a lot of up-and-coming players had. Perhaps it was their way of announcing that they were somebody - before they actually were anybody.
The ROAD GAME Route to ProfitDecember 25, 2006 - 4:53am
Everyone starts somewhere, and it's never at the top. If you don't like the idea of beginning at the bottom and working your way up the poker ladder, let me present the alternative. It's beginning at the top and working your way down. Now that's not a pleasant prospect, but I've lived enough years to see it happen to young players again and again.
Don't take your troubles to the tableDecember 11, 2006 - 4:53am
When you're emotionally upset, you just can't play poker the right way, the profitable way. I used to back players I believed in. One was a kid named Craig who impressed me with his discipline. I mean, he was just unshakable, never getting out of line. He would siphon off the money from the table so methodically that it became a fearsome thing to watch.
Accepting a GiftNovember 27, 2006 - 4:53am
"Don't accept a gift in the big blind in hold 'em," Kelly told me years ago. He was wrong. In hold 'em there are no antes. Without antes or something to replace them, there's nothing to fight over, and if you're against wise opponents who are playing perfectly, you should sit hand after hand, badly bored and mumbling mantras about your cattle farm. Finally one hand you'll find a pair of aces. Logically, only then can you play, because you can defend aces against other intelligent players with equally perfect patience.

Hain's one-state plan not Labour policy
Former Middle East Minister Peter Hain has been criticised by Labour colleagues for promoting a "one-state solution" to the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
In a keynote address at Swansea University, the veteran MP said that after two decades of support he had become "increasingly unsure" whether a two-state outcome could be reached.
"For close to 70 years the cycle of violence and hatred has ripped the region apart. Stop-start negotiations to achieve a two-state solution… have led nowhere, despite the fact that a majority of both peoples (Palestinian and Israeli) continue publicly to support it," Mr Hain said.
His shift in thinking was "mainly because… the land earmarked for a viable Palestinian state has been remorselessly occupied by Israeli settlers".
Mr Hain compared the situation facing Israelis and Palestinians to that which had once faced the opposing sides in Northern Ireland.
He remained "uncertain" about a one-state outcome, but believed a solution to the Middle East conflict could ultimately be achieved.
"The window for an independent Palestinian state may be closing," the former anti-apartheid campaigner warned, partly because "the land that has been hypothetically apportioned to a Palestinian state is looking vulnerable".
A Labour spokesman said Mr Hain "does not speak for Labour on foreign affairs and his views on the Middle East peace process do not represent party policy".
He said the party remained "fully committed" to a two-state solution and supported US Secretary of State John Kerry's ongoing peace initiative.
Shadow Foreign Secretary Douglas Alexander told a Labour Friends of Israel lunch last July that it was a "fantasy" to think one state could "ever be either sustainable or consistent with Israel's democratic values".
LFI chair Anne McGuire MP said Mr Hain was "of course entitled to his view", but suggested the move in his position put him "in danger of undermining the state of Israel and the rights of its people, and telling the Palestinian people that their aspiration for a state and self-determination is to be ignored".

Video Rating: 4 / 5
#srirachaoneverything #sriracharecipes #healthyrecipes
I make something similar at home. Quick tip:its quicker to coat all of the
chicken by putting the dry ingredients into a ziplock bag and the throwing
the chicken in it and shaking it around….rather than coat one piece one
by one.
These look delicious. Definitely have to give them a shot.
I could smash a few of those down in a sitting lol. Sriracha is fantastic
on anything and I put on everything I don't do cheese Derek but you

I hate everything mayo even that miracle whip stuff
Made these the other day and they're amazing. Possibly the best of your
recipes that I've made, in my opinion.
Defrosting my chicken and buying Sriricha now!
delicious!! Great Job
Ha! I wasn't really watching the video as it was running in the background
but I heard "parmesan graded cheese" and I thought to myself – "what kind
of weird cheese is that? Is it some kind of cheese that is using a new
scale system? 'On a scale from chedder to asieogo, this cheese rates about
a parmesan.'"
I need more coffee

We are inspired by soccer and all the moments that it has given us along the way. The people we've met. The friends we've made. The places we've traveled. The games we've won and the games we've lost. The experiences that have given us memories that will last a lifetime.
These are the same things that influence and guide the look and feel of Bumpy Pitch. Everything that we design is inspired by the sport and the experiences that it's given us. We believe it is beautiful not just on the field, but off it as well. We strive to show that through the clothes we design, the stories we tell and the product that we create.
We believe in the beautiful game. We believe in the culture and lifestyle that it inspires and we are committed to giving back more to the sport it has given us.
A genuine love for soccer makes Bumpy Pitch more than a product company. We're fans who have a love for the sport and are passionate about the culture. Soccer is The Beautiful Game and everything we design and create is meant to honor that.
We constantly look globally for inspiration that moves us, but we are proud to produce and manufacture locally. We're not only based in Los Angeles, we've also made a commitment to keep our manufacturing domestic.

Fox gets Late Filing Violation on Campaign Finance
NewsRadio 920 WHJJ and the Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Former Rhode Island House Speaker Gordon Fox has been hit with a campaign finance violation for failing to file his latest campaign finance report on time.
Richard Thornton of the Board of Elections' campaign finance division says on Tuesday that Fox did not file his first quarter report by midnight on April 30.
The FBI and IRS raided Fox's home and Statehouse office on March 21. On the same day, they contacted the Board of Elections about Fox. Thornton says they have not been in touch since then.
Federal authorities won't say what they are investigating.
Fox says he plans to file, but that he's had a lot on his mind.
Thornton says it's a $25 fine for the late filing. Eventually, late filings accrue a $2 fine per day.

Pop star Gary Barlow showed what a consummate professional he was as he performed with Take That despite mourning the loss of his baby daughter.
Baby Poppy was delivered stillborn last Saturday when Barlow's wife, former dancer Dawn, was eight months pregnant.
The singer-songwriter had previously spoken about how he was looking forward to becoming a father for the fourth time. The couple already have three children.
The announcement had cast doubt on whether Barlow would appear in the closing ceremony, but tonight he put on a brave face to perform alongside band mates Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald.
The group first shot to fame in the early 90s, becoming one of the most successful boy bands of all time.
With their heartthrob looks and mix of catchy pop tunes and romantic ballads they sold out stadiums, leaving screaming fans in their wake.
But the pressure became too much for fifth member Robbie Williams, who left the band in 1995 amid his own drug and alcohol problems.
When the rest of the band then broke up a year later, they left their millions of fans devastated to the extent that a special hotline had to be set up to offer counselling.
The announcement that they were reforming to carry out a tour, minus Williams, in 2006 was met with universal acclaim.
And although many doubted they would still appeal to audiences 15 years on from their original success, they have proven they have still got what it takes.
Now aged in their late 30s and early 40s, they are more of a manband than a boyband, but still appeal to fans old and young alike.
With Barlow still carrying out the main songwriting duties, their comeback album Beautiful World went straight to number one in the charts and has remained one of the best selling album in the UK of all time while their other releases have also enjoyed huge sales.
Although some members have tried solo careers, they have shown that they are at their best - and most popular - when performing as a group.
They have performed three sell out tours - with the 1.34 million tickets on offer for the most recent one selling out in just 24 hours.
Williams also rejoined the band at this stage, although he was not performing tonight as his wife Ayda is expecting their first child imminently.
Meanwhile Owen recently became a father again, when his wife Emma gave birth to their third child.
Barlow, who was crowned celebrity dad of the year in June, has also made a name for himself through appearing as a judge on The X Factor and in various charity events.
A fund has been set up by fans in his daughter's memory on the website justgiving.com. It aims to raise £100,000 for the stillbirth and neonatal death charity Sands.

Righty tagged for ten hits in second loss
By Tim Heiman / Binghamton Mets | May 1, 2013 5:48 PM ET
BINGHAMTON, NY - The Erie SeaWolves tagged Rafael Montero for ten runs on ten hits and handed the Binghamton Mets an 11-4 loss on Wednesday night at NYSEG Stadium. Francisco Pena collected three hits and drove in two runs in the losing effort.
The B-Mets were in control for the first three innings. Binghamton grabbed the lead in the second against Erie starter Victor Larez. Blake Forsythe led off the inning with a double to left and came home when Pena smoked an RBI double down the left field line.
After cruising through the first three innings, Montero hit a major speed bump in the fourth. The SeaWolves plated five runs on five hits and took advantage of a fielding error to take a commanding four-run lead. Tyler Collins supplied an RBI double to tie the game, James McCann added a run-scoring single and Marcus Lemon capped the rally with a two-run triple.
Tyler Collins added to the lead with a solo home run in the fifth and the SeaWolves blew the game open with four more scores in the seventh. Ramon Cabrera delivered the crushing blow with a three-run single.
Binghamton scratched back with two runs against Larez in the seventh, his final inning. Pena started the inning with a double and scored on Joe Bonfe's groundout. Alonzo Harris launched an 0-1 pitch over the left field wall for his third homer of the season.
The SeaWolves plated their final run of the game against reliever Adam Kolarek in the eighth. Pena capped his three-hit day with an RBI single in the bottom half of the inning against Erie reliever Tyler Clark.
Montero (3-2) suffered his second straight loss. The righty allowed a career-high ten runs (seven earned) and ten hits while striking out five. Larez (4-0) racked up his fourth straight win, allowing three runs on seven hits over a season-best seven innings.
The B-Mets (14-12) conclude their four-game series and week-long homestand Thursday night at 6:35 PM. RHP Logan Verrett (4-0, 1.95) takes the mound against LHP Kyle Lobstein (2-2, 3.56). The Horizons Federal Credit Union Pregame Show begins at 6:20 PM on Newsradio 1290 WNBF.
POSTGAME NOTES: Montero becomes the second B-Met starter to allow ten hits in a game; Tyler Pill surrendered 10 to New Hampshire on April 12…John Church pitched a perfect ninth inning…it was Pena's first three-hit game as a B-Met

Finding Sugar pill for cheap? You are like me I am always looking for a way to save money but has the best products out there. If you are looking for cheap in price a lot of the time you sacrifice quality of the product, it may be a knockoff or could have a reaction to the skin. So I would say shop at those "wholesale" sites at your own risk. If its an AMAZING deal its probably too good to be true.
Now for great pigment eye shadow that wont break the bank is an easy one. NYX has a great variety of shadows with some great pay off, if you are looking for a brighter color you can always add in one of their famous JUMBO eye pencils. I love there JUMBO pencils! You can use them as a base for any eyeshadow and get great color payoff and long lasting wear. (Just make sure you blend well to prevent creasing)
Loreal Hip has some amazing duos and you can mix and match the duos for a night out on the town! What I love most about them is if you use certain colors wet, POW you've got a waterproof eyeshadow with crazy pigment payoff!
These are 2 of my favorite reasonably priced eyeshadow that I own and use. You don't always have to buy the expensive make up to get a celebrity look you can use what you have a just tweak a bit to match your personal style. But it is nice to reward yourself with one or two every once in while

Nikko Jenkins To Represent Himself
On Friday a Douglas County judge said that Nikko Jenkins can act as his own attorney in his murder trial.
Judge Peter Batallion warned Jenkins that defending himself "would be very difficult for any lawyer'' and that he could be represented by Douglas County Public Defender Tom Riley.
Jenkins said he undestands the risks, but that he is "intellectually able to represent myself.'' He'll receive advice from a public defender, and be allowed to access video evidence of police interviews.
Jenkins is charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the August deaths of Juan Uribe-Pena, Jorge Cajiga-Ruiz, Curtis Bradford and Andrea Kruger.

The importance of a book like COM+ Programming with Visual Basic lies in the fact that the Visual Basic programming environment is designed to hide as many low-level system details as possible. While this approach can speed development time by letting you focus on the task at hand, it actually hinders the process when it obscures details you need to understand or control. Such is often the case for programmers who are developing components that take advantage of COM+ services. COM+ Programming with Visual Basic takes aim squarely at the information needs of these developers.For instance, despite the marketing hype about COM+ as the new and improved version of COM, classic COM is very much the foundation on which COM+ is built: COM+ components are a particular kind of COM component. Visual Basic hides almost all COM implementation details; yet it is precisely in the area of COM+ programming that these hidden details are most important. Therefore, we've devoted significant content to exploring COM internals:
Jose Mojica is an instructor and researcher at DevelopMentor, a company that's gained an international reputation for its experience with COM and COM+. He teaches various courses that focus on enterprise development in COM+, IIS, .NET, and Visual Basic. Before joining DevelopMentor, Jose was a consultant at IBM, writing DCOM servers that performed speech recognition and creating ActiveX controls in ATL for the ViaVoice SDK. He has worked with Visual Basic since Version 1.0. Jose is the author of Building ActiveX Controls with Visual Basic 5.0 and coauthor of Programming Internet Controls and Distributed Applications for Visual C++ 6.0 MCSD Training Kit.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The fish on the cover of COM+ Programming with Visual Basic are minnows. Although the term "minnow" is commonly used to describe any number of small freshwater fish, minnow is actually the name for a family of fish, most of which are dull in color and only a few inches in length. Some species of minnow, however, grow to a foot in length, and the males turn bright red or orange just before the spring spawning season. The family includes various types of chubs, daces, shriners, minnows, and carp, all of which have scaleless heads, toothless jaws (but teeth on a bone in the throat), pelvic fins (rather than fins extending from their sides), and a single dorsal fin in common.Minnows are extremely plentiful in North American freshwaters, forming the basis of fish fauna in most ponds, lakes, streams, and rivers. Many of the smaller minnow species perform key roles in the food chain; these "primary consumers" feed on bottom ooze, algae, and aquatic plants and in turn serve as protein-rich meals for larger fish and fish-eating birds.While the minnow family has been evolutionarily successful, diversifying into many species that densely occupy a variety of habitats and perform key functions in the food chain, it has been challenged recently by the human practice of diverting and polluting waters. In fact, in 1994, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Division of Endangered Species identified the Rio Grande silvery minnowHybognathus amarus as endangered due to "dewatering, channelization and regulation of river flow to provide water for irrigation; diminished water quality caused by municipal, industrial, and agricultural discharges; and competition or predation by introduced non-native fish species." Apparently, this particular species now occupies only "five percent of its known historic range." Catherine Morris was the production editor and proofreader, and Norma Emory was the copyeditor for COM+ Programming with Visual Basic. Linley Dolby, Nicole Arigo, and Claire Cloutier provided quality control. Pamela Murray wrote the index.Pam Spremulli designed the cover of this book, based on a series design by Edie Freedman. The cover image is a 19th-century engraving from the Dover Pictorial Archive. Emma Colby produced the cover layout with QuarkXPress 4.1 using Adobe's ITC Garamond font.David Futato designed the interior layout based on a series design by Nancy Priest. Anne-Marie Vaduva converted the files from Microsoft Word to FrameMaker 5.5.6 using tools created by Mike Sierra. The text and heading fonts are ITC Garamond Light and Garamond Book; the code font is Constant Willison. The illustrations that appear in the book were produced by Robert Romano and Jessamyn Read using Macromedia FreeHand 9 and Adobe Photoshop 6. This colophon was written by Sarah Jane Shangraw.

Comments about oreilly COM+ Programming with Visual Basic:
if you are sound with .net fundamentals, you will like some parts of this book because this author uses his owner words with a unique perspective to certain concepts. but watch out the imcomplete code example (or code is too old for vbc under sdk 1.1) and blury concepts between namespace and assembly implied when code sample is explained. I spent a lot time to find out I need a "imports system.reflection" to make sample code for hellogreeting.vb to compile (part of chapter 11).

COM+ Programming with Visual Basic Review
For those who don't really want or need to know these sorts of things this book might be too much, but as for me, I am on the same page as the author-I have to know the how and why of it all. Good treatment of subjects. But it is not for beginners! Marc White
By Denny Hignite
I liked this book until I started to go through some examples step-by-step and went to the website for the examples as specified in the book. Once I found the correct link to the examples, I found they didn't contain what was specified in the book (Chapter 7 at least) at which point I decided it was a complete waste of time. People who publish technical books should pay much more attention to details.
By Bernd Bucher
The autor updated the security chapter in the examples file but the new example is just pure Windows API Programming stuff...the examples are still a disappointment. The book itself is a mix between in-depth behind the scene explanation and examples not in-depth at all.
The book offers a very good insight to COM+ BUT it's not perfect at all. Especially the Examples delivered with the book have a poor quality. If you download the Examples you only get the sample code until chapter 9. So, the whole security part where I got the most problems is missing any sample code. This means you can't just deploy a running sample. Especially the security took me many hours to get along with.
By Stephen Rybacki
Finally! This book cuts through to the COM/COM+ core where others have only come tantalizingly close. I have an extensive computer science library, and I thought I had all the definitive books on Visual Basic 5/6 and object oriented programming in VB. Yet this exceedingly handy volume is already my favorite because I am a person who just HAS to know "how it works". While other books largely defer to Visual Basic's sheltering from system internals, this one gives the straight up story on the hows and whys of interface based programming. Don't get me wrong, quality authors like Daniel Appleman and Deborah Kurata and the content they have provided are excellent sources of information for Visual Basic object oriented programming, but COM+ Programming by Jose Mojica picks up where these leave off. For those who don't really want or need to know these sorts of things this book might be too much, but as for me, I am on the same page as the author -- I have to know the how and why of it all. I have always been a fan of O'Reilly books because of their treatment of subjects that are off the beaten track and this one does not disappoint. Well done.

HELENE REY is currently completing a BSc in Archaeology. As well as volunteering for the society in our Schools Programme, Hélène will also be representing UCL at CUIMUN later this month.
On a cold Saturday morning, in the almost surreal decorum of the offices of Thomson Reuters in Canary Wharf, a small delegation from UCLUMUN had the opportunity to partake in something quite exciting: the launch of "Future Foreign Policy (FFP)," a think tank designed by and for students and recent graduates interested in foreign policy. The day-long conference was extremely well run and set a high standard for the nascent organisation. High-profile speakers included diplomats, researchers at Chatham House and foreign policy analysts. All their combine expertise and enthusiasm fuelled fascinating debates during the panel discussions.
In the morning, we participated in a session on "Are we overestimating the threat posed by terrorism?" which raised some thought-provoking questions and answers. It was interesting that most of the panellists were cautioning against the obsession with terrorism that seems to characterise our era and in particular, against the danger of contributing to the spread of fear and that of generating a widespread discrimination against specific communities. Further, the justifiability of certain counter-terrorism measures was also debated. In the afternoon, we attended the panel on "The past and future of UK Foreign military intervention" that discussed the increased difficulty of justifying military intervention and the importance of finding alternative and of building the resilience of civil society.
Outside of the panels, there were also two keynote sessions, one on International security and the second on UK's place on the international stage. Both sessions, evidently very interesting in themselves, had also the great feature of incorporating a couple of pitches from attendees to the conference. For those delivering said pitches, it was an excellent opportunity to put their ideas to the scrutiny of the experts present whilst for FFP it was a practical application of the mission of the think tank.
This already substantial programme was complemented by two further sessions. The first was on careers in foreign policy and was probably that which provided the more useful insight into the industry and into the various ways that can lead to it. The day finished by a session on the future of foreign policy and in particular on the use of technology for crowdsourcing.
In sum, FFP was launched with panache. The discussions, the debates, and the general organisation of the day were impeccable from start to finish and few – if any – would have left Canary Wharf without the desire to get involved with what promises to be an extremely successful adventure in the land of foreign policy. I for one cannot wait to see it develop further.

SM East administrators are still planning on holding tonight's graduation ceremony outdoors, but are keeping a close eye on the weather. Current forecasts show a 40 percent chance of showers at 7 p.m., the scheduled start time for the ceremony.
The school's Web site says administrators will make an announcement between 3 and 4 p.m. today about whether the ceremony will be moved indoors to the SM South gymnasium.
Should weather conditions require the ceremony to be moved indoors, each student's family will receive five graduation tickets. Attendees must have a ticket to enter the gym. A closed-circuit television feed will allow those who can't get into the gym to watch the ceremony in the SM South auditorium.
UPDATED: The district has announced that the ceremony will be held outdoors in the SM South stadium as originally scheduled.

But when he recently learned that Republican presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney had had his atheist father-in-law posthumously baptized into the Mormon church, Bill couldn't let that act go unchallenged. It's normal for LDS members to perform "baptisms" for people who have died, including Shoah victims, so the fact that Mitt tried to make sure his father-in-law ended up in … [Read more...]
Well, This Was Inevitable: A Jewish Parody of Tim Tebow
As I've said before elsewhere, Jewish people love to make lame knockoffs of every big pop culture story. Right now, there's virtually no bigger pop culture figure than Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow, so of course the Jewish parody-making contingent has come up with their kosher-certified equivalent. Meet "Heebow." … [Read more...]
Here's the Inevitable Jewish Version of 'Shit Girls Say'
The last two weeks have been a perfect illustration of the life of an internet meme:1. Somebody makes a thing (in this case, a video called "Shit Girls Say")2. Thing goes viral3. Thing goes really viral, like to the point where your technologically-challenged grandmother has heard about it from CBS evening news or a telegram or something4. People begin making their own versions of thing (ex. "Shit Black Girls Say")5. People respond to the responses (such as "Shit White Girls … [Read more...]
Here Is a Christian Parody of Nicki Minaj's 'Super Bass'
It's nothing new for religious folks to take pop culture and put their own Jesus-approved spin on it, especially if the original version of the song/show/product contains profanity or has a sexual message. The next thing to get the Christian-remake treatment is Nicki Minaj's hit song "Super Bass," which has become "Super Grace." Check it: … [Read more...]

Re: difference between HeavisidePi and UnitBox
I understand that it doesn't matter. There's even some discussion
here about it http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RectangleFunction.html
My question is regarding "The piecewise version of the rectangle
function is implemented in Mathematica as UnitBox[x], while the
generalized function version is implemented as HeavisidePi[x]."
why do we need both? I find the integral transforms (I use mostly
FourierTransform) actually work much better with the piecewise UnitBox
for 5-bar patterns that I like to use.
Does anyone have a thorough explanation of when generalized functions
are better than piecewise and vice versa?

We assembled a panel of 12 horseplayers and racing fans from around the country to rank their top 12 Derby contenders. To maintain integrity, ensure accountability, and prevent claims of geographic bias, we have the East Coast, Midwest, and West Coast all represented. Our results are even auditable.
What's remarkable about this year's Derby is the new points system. Whereas graded stakes earnings determined the 20 starters in the past, Churchill Downs instituted a completely fair and balanced point system to weight the value of the prep races. What this means is that big money winners like SHANGHAI BOBBY and GOLDENCENTS may still have work left to guarantee their Derby spot. Not sure how it will play out, or even if it's better or worse than the previous system, but it should make the prep season even more exciting and tension filled.
But enough with all that BS, behold the spectacle that is the WirePlayers Derby Dozen Volume I:
Here's the fine people who volunteered their time and expertise to be part of our Derby Dozen panel:

/// Facebook Continues Testing Free Wi-Fi With Cafe Partners
December 27, 2012 | All Things Digital
Facebook is in the midst of a small program with a handful of cafes in the San Francisco and Silicon Valley areas. In the program, first noticed by Inside Facebook , Facebook provides its partner cafes with free routers, and customers check in to the business on Facebook in order to access the Internet. The service is being tested inside Philz Coffee in San Francisco, according to Hunter Walk, as well as a handful of Palo Alto cafes.

Published: August 15, 2013 at 9:28 AMI tried Earl of Sandwich for the first time a few weeks ago, and while it didn't fully live up to the breathless hype and absurdly long line, my sandwich was rather good. I ordered the special pulled pork sandwich, and it had all the qualities you said make for a good sandwich: contrast between hot pork and cool coleslaw, crispy, airy bread (not the best bread I've ever had, but I'd say better than average), and moist without being sloppy.
I do love the Jazz Kitchen Express. The shrimp po'boy has been my pick, but I'm going to have to try the meal you had because it looks and sounds wonderful.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 10:16 AMHmmm. I still want to try the holiday turkey sandwich, but I freakin' HATE mayo, so I think I'll be asking to hold that. And maybe half the gravy, if I can swing it.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 10:57 AMHi Robert, if you have patience to try EOS again, try the Cuban. I thought it was delicious. Just the right amount of sauce to moisten, tangy peppers and nice hot chicken inside. Also it's so nice eating in downtown disney and entering Disneyland via the monorail instead of the main gate. A nice little secret I think many visitors don't realize.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 11:51 AMI'm sorry you've had bad experiences at Earl of Sandwich. It didn't have to be this way. All the sandwiches can be customized. Don't like mayo or want it lite? No problem. Just tell them. Like extra pickles? Go for it. Don't want it toasted? Again, just speak up. (Although, because the bread is freshly baked each day, the roll will still be warm whether you want the sandwich toasted or not.)
I've been to locations in Downtown Disney at WDW and at the International Plaza Mall in Tampa and had wonderful experiences. I especially like the combination of Earl Grey Tea and Lemonade. It's very refreshing.
- Brian
Published: August 15, 2013 at 1:36 PMHey, the Earl of Sandwich is popular because it is cheap!!! The prices are reasonable for that location. This doesn't mean it is necessarily good especially with the volume that must be produced. The mistake is thinking just because everyone is going there, it must be good!!! That's the common mistake that everyone makes.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 2:00 PMNever tried Earl's, but I really like the Jazz Kitchen, it's my go to spot whenever I eat at Downtown Disney!
I do think I'll try Earls' at some point though.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 3:05 PMEarl of Sandwich... well, uh sucks!
It's by far the most overrated, over-hyped sandwich on the market and the arrogance of the company to label it "world's best" is pathetic. When you make the "world's best" claim then you better have something that is exceptional. There is nothing exceptional about what Earl of Sandwich serves.
Published: August 15, 2013 at 3:28 PMWow, Eric G, if it is that bad you better not go within 1000 feet of it or something might happen to you. My family and I have been to the Earl of Sandwich in WDW many times and it is something we enjoy going to. It has never let us down.
Published: August 16, 2013 at 12:53 PMJazz Kitchen Express is one of our favorites, my husband always gets the shrimp po'boy and we will get some beignets to finish off the meal.
Published: August 17, 2013 at 4:23 PMThomas Caselli - That's fine and since you like Earl of Sandwich you probably like Subway and Quiznos too since Earl of Sandwich is pretty much on par with those mediocre sub shops.
I would have liked it more if people wouldn't talk it up like it's the best, when it's not and the company wasn't so arrogant to make a "World's Best" claim.
In the end, Earl of Sandwich is no better, nor worse than a good Subway franchise. Trust me I won't be putting any effort into returning so I don't think I have to worry about getting within a thousand feet of one.
Published: August 17, 2013 at 6:35 PMNo, I do not like Subway. There are much better places that I would go to here where I live. Earl of Sandwich isn't the greatest place ever, but it is better then the average place. It is one thing to have an opinion about a place, but it is a completely different thing to make it sound like a place shouldn't exist because you don't like it.
Published: August 18, 2013 at 2:58 PMSad to hear that the West Coast version of the Earl is not that good. My wife and I loved the East Coast version. I think we ate there almost every evening except for dinner at Jiko. Maybe it's because I ate mostly Full Montague and 1762. My wife's favorite was the Holiday Turkey. We were looking forward to eating there when our little one is old enough to visit Disneyland.
Published: August 19, 2013 at 12:31 PMMy family and I tried out the Earl of Sandwich just for a quick place to eat Downtown Disney. It was the best dining experience of the trip. We enjoyed the sandwich so much we planned to return the fallowing night for dinner. I have told other people going to Orlando to be sure to eat there at least one meal.

JOHANNESBURG – South Africa's opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) on Sunday announced the collapse of a deal to have former anti-apartheid stalwart Mamphela Ramphele run as its presidential candidate in upcoming elections against the ruling ANC.
It would have been the first time that the DA had fielded a black presidential candidate in an election, providing a shield against persistent charges they are a vessel for white interests.
But the deal fell apart at a meeting on Sunday aimed at finalizing terms of the agreement announced last Tuesday, DA leader Helen Zille said in a statement.

Introducing Air-Purifying Pavement
What if a city's concrete roadways doubled as an air freshener?
That's the dream of a group of Dutch scientists who have developed a product they describe as "air-purifying pavement."
Could the very streets you drive on eat smog?
Though the original technology was developed in Japan about 20 years ago, researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology have been working for the last seven to eight years to develop special air-purifying pavement.
The researchers outfitted one block in the city of Hengelo, Netherlands, with paving blocks sprayed with titanium oxide, which has the ability to remove pollutants from the air and turn them into less harmful chemicals. They created and tested two environments—one with the treated stones and the other with regular stones—producing conditions that were almost identical.
The scientists found that by installing this special pavement in streets that the air in city was not only cleaner, but pollution was nearly cut in half.
Jos Brouwers, Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology is part of the team of working on this technology. He tells The Takeaway how the ground we walk on could help clean the air we breath.

Cuomo Offers Sandy Homeowners Less Money in Buyout Program
The Cuomo administration is telling homeowners to expect to get a lot less money if they want their Sandy-damaged properties to be bought out by the state.
Under a revised plan submitted to the federal government (PDF p. 41), only homeowners in the most vulnerable flood areas, called V zones, would be eligible to receive the pre-storm value of their homes. Others would have their houses appraised at their post-storm value.
The program will also extend pre-storm prices to homeowners in certain targeted areas, as in the buyouts underway in Oakwood Beach, Staten Island. But the plan says those "will be very limited in scope."
A state official says the old plan was changed because the Bloomberg administration was concerned it would have let too many properties revert to open space. That's because federal rules require that anything bought at full market value has to be kept undeveloped forever, to create flood overflow areas. Acquiring homes at post-storm values permits someone else to redevelop the properties.

Hawaii Health Connector Chief Resigns
Hawaii Health Connector executive director Coral Andrews is resigning from the state's health insurance exchange effective December 6. Andrews said she was not forced to resign. "This is my choice," she said, adding that she recommended to the exchange's board that it was time for a leadership transition. Andrews says Hawaii Health Connector has been her baby requiring constant nurturing and attention. The connector has reached a point where "I now need to let go and let someone else take charge." The Connector's board of directors named Tom Matsuda, the state's Affordable Care Act implementation manager, interim executive director effective December 9 and has launched a search for Andrews' replacement. She was paid $175,000 a year as executive director.

In Defense of Individualism

This paper offers a programmatic philosophical articulation of moral and political individualism. This individualism consists of two main components: value individualism and rights individualism. The former is the view that, for each individual, the end which is of ultimate value is his own well-being. Each individual's well-being has ultimate agent-relative value and the only ultimate values are these agent-relative values. The latter view is that individuals possess moral jurisdiction over themselves, i.e., rights of self-ownership. These rights (along with other rights individuals may come to possess) constrain the manner in which agents may pursue value. For this reason, the articulated individualism is an constrained individualism. Sketches of arguments are offered for both value and rights individualism. And it is argued that the sole legitimate function of legal/political institutions is to further delineate and protect the rights of individuals. However, the paper is also concerned to indicate why this radical moral and political individualism does not have many of the features or implications that are commonly ascribed to it. In this connection, I seek to show how this social doctrine accords with individuals' having concern for the well-being of others, with the emergence of relationships among individuals that have both instrumental and non-instrumental value, with a degree of responsibility for self and others that is often thought to be antithetical to individualism and, in general, with a flourishing of civil order.

A friend sent me an email yesterday. It started out like most emails, shooting the breeze about her day, her kids, her weekend plans. Then it dovetailed into a rant focusing on some negative aspects about her job.
We all do it. We all rant. It's normal.
But I still didn't let her get away with it. I could see she was winding herself up for a much longer rant, one that was going to end with her in a deep funk for the rest of the day. So I distracted her.
"Quick! Tell me five things you can think of off the top of your head that make you really happy right now."
She hesitated for a moment and then replied. And her mood changed.
It's not easy to look on the bright side of everything. It's all too often much easier to gripe about the little things that bug us all day long. But happiness is a state of mind more than anything. No matter what's going on it's possible to be happy, you just need to know where to look.
Looking for the little joys that fill every day takes practice. Keeping a Gratitude Journal on hand to jot the little things down when they come to mind makes it easier. As an added bonus, the running list can keep you inspired when the little gripes threaten to take over. I turned a Tiny Prints personalizable notebook into a Gratitude Journal. The pictures on the cover instantly put me in the right frame of mind.
It's your turn! Quick, what five things make you happy right now?

Hey all,I'm looking for some feedback or suggestions.I have a '69 Custom S with a 350 XS motor. I put a set of '67 670 heads on it. I hear a slight ticking when it is idling.Someone told me this, but I don't know if it is correct or not and looking to get more advice on the situation: the 670 heads went on a 400 or 428 block with a 4.12" bore. my 350 block is 3.890". therefore the valves might hit the cylinders.Is this correct? what suggestions? I'd really like to run the 670 heads but I don't want to bend a push rod or mess up the valves.
Doubt the valves are hitting, you have to have to be lifting the valve 1/2" or more for that to happen. What cam is in there?
it's the stock cam. I'm really a noob when it comes to engine building. I bought the car a few years ago so I could learn more about working on cars. So far I have run new brake lines, replaced all the drums and brake hardware, replaced the radiator, refurbished some rally II rims, shocks, all new front suspension, exhaust manifolds & exhaust, and most recently swapped out the heads/intake/carb. I have come a long way in what I know about cars, but I still have a lot to learn. I would think that if the valves were hitting it would be pretty noisy. the ticking i hear is not that loud. it's about as loud as an ignition coil sparking to the distributor cap or a plug wire. In fact, i might check that. maybe that is the ticking?
Run it in total darkness and look for an arc somewhere?Could be an exhaust manifold leaking, they can make a ticking sound. Look for a black spot at the gaskets somewhere. You can always isolate the noise carefully using a stethoscope or a stick. Like put it on the valve cover and see if the noise is in there. Pontiacs with stock valvetrains have a few things that can get loose under there and tick. Maybe a loose rocker arm nut or a worn part or a rocker stud backing out, all of which would just make the old loose pushrod sound, especially at idle when oil pressure is low. Its not a bad idea to put locking, set-screw type rocker nuts on an old stocker like that, clearances change a lot over the years and with rebuilds.
I very much doubt the valves are hitting the cylinder, I have #13 heads with 2.11/1.77 valves and .504 lift and have no clearance issues of such.

That's great news to hear guys. I went out and bought a stethoscope. (always wanted an excuse to get one) I'll check around to see where that ticking is coming from. I should also invest in some locker nuts for the rocker arms. i ended up reusing the old ones and they went on pretty easy, so maybe a rocker arm is loose. i'll also check around the exhaust manifolds to see if there is a leak. thanks for all the great suggestions. I'll keep you guys updated on what I find.
so, i was so excited to use my new stethoscope. before i started her up i moved a couple plug wires away from the ignition coil. got her started. i don't hear the ticking. i put the stethoscope on the valve cover in a few spots but didn't hear anything out of the ordinary. maybe it was just sparking? i'll try again more this weekend. my wife made me stop because i was gonna wake up the babies.
Pontiacman8:I very much doubt the valves are hitting the cylinder, I have #13 heads with 2.11/1.77 valves and .504 lift and have no clearance issues of such.I just bought some #62 heads (ported polished, seats, 3 angle, roller rockers) for my 1970 Pontiac 350 and was concerned about valve clearance issues. Stock bore being 3.875 and #62 valves measuring 3.875 across. Will they scrape the cylinder walls, do I need to chamfer the tops of my cylinders @intake and exhaust, or bore out.....??????? 1970 LemansEdelbrock performer rpm dual plane intake, Holley 700 4bbl, hooker long tubes, 2 1/2" duals, Mallory dist, coil, & box, 480 cam, rebuilt th350 with stage 2 kit, 3.36 posi,
Many of these 350 blocks were chamfered for the big valves, my 70 Tempest 350 has them. It is a throwback to the 69 350HO which was the only year to have 2.11 and 1.77 valves. Later 350's are only chamfered on the intake side because they only used 2.11 intakes with 1.66 exhausts.
A little help... 'cause we don't all have to learn the hard way!
What if there is no chamfer, will I have to chamfer, also what about cylinder wall clearance......hopefully I will have time to get my heads off soon, and I guess all of my questions will be answered. Was the 69 ho 350 3.875 bore? That's a little relieving knowing your 70 tempest was chamferd.
All Pontiac 350 engines had the same bore size from the factory H.O. or not.
Engine builder,self taught auto body guy.Horsepower sells engines and torque wins races
Back in the day I bought some new valves with a set of 16s on a 69 350, it happens. Don't remember the lift on the cam.
the chamfer was for inproved air flow! the head gasket will show you where the chamfer should be on the deck. just don't get into the top ring!!

So last night a huge hail storm rolled through Louisville. I picked up a few as large as chicken eggs. Needless to say that by the time i noticed that it was hailing, it was too late. The damage is pretty extensive, and im wondering if this will make my car a total loss?
Damage includes:
50+ dents on both the hood and roof
around 40 across the entire passenger side. Fender, F-R doors, quarter panel
around 20 across the drivers side
Trunk has about 14 small dents
the pillars are covered on both sides, and various weather stripping on the roof and above the windows
Both headlights were slightly broken in the corners (you can see it in the 3rd pic)
Windshield has a crack about 14 inches across
here are just a couple pictures for the extent of how big some of them are
whether or not it ends up being totaled, are there any tips you think i should take when dealing with the insurance company. i filed my claim almost instantly after it happened. i have a lot of pictures and a video of all the damage
thanks for the help!

5 Foolproof Ways To Secure A Job In The New Year
Use these five tips to rev up a job search.
By Angela Rose
As midnight approached and the final minutes of 2016 tick-tocked away, what did you pledge to achieve in 2017? According to Psychology Today, losing weight and exercising more are the two most common New Year's resolutions. Getting out of debt, saving money and going back to school are also quite popular—and honorable—pledges. However, for those beginning 2017 as job seekers, resolutions pertaining to the job search are likely paramount.
Here are six resolutions that may help you secure a new position before you even lose the post-holiday bulge.
1. Determine your true worth.
Rather than basing your income goals on what you were earning in your last position or a number that appeared to you in a dream, determine your true market value. This is based on your education, skills and experience as well as your industry, position desired and geographic location. This is good information to have at hand when it comes time to negotiate your next salary. Payscale.com and Salary.com make finding it easy.
2. Clean up your online presence.
Did you know that potential employers are just as likely to check applicants' social media activity? If you've posted questionable photos or spent time ranting about your last boss, politics, religion or unemployment, remove the evidence. Then resolve to conduct yourself online as though a future boss is watching—he or she may very well be.
3. Target your job search.
If your approach to sending resumes is similar to throwing many copies against a wall to see what sticks, it's time for a more selective approach. Figure out exactly the type of job you want, the duties you'd enjoy, and the industry in which you'd like to work—then go for it. Search job boards and employment postings using that information as your keywords. You'll have a much better chance of finding the right job for you.
4. Customize your resume.
Now that you're not blasting out a resume to every employer posting a job, you'll have more time to customize your approach. Begin by carefully reviewing the job description. What credentials, skills, and experience are required? How are the job's duties described? Who is the ideal candidate? Use this information to create a list of keywords, phrases, qualifications and experiences to include in your cover letter and resume. Employers want to know that you "fit" the job so it's important to include words directly taken from job descriptions.
5. Learn something new.
You don't even have to pay for it. Visit the library and check out a book or two on your industry or read a few trade publications. Take a free class or attend a local government or nonprofit-sponsored seminar for job seekers. You'll demonstrate your willingness to learn, eagerness to improve, and may even gain helpful insight you can share in your network or social media.

When HP bought webOS, the idea was to have the software in printers, tablets, phones and computers all connecting with each other through the use of the operating system. Instead, HP was slow in bringing products to market and when something new was produced, like the HP TouchPad, it sold poorly despite HP's price-cutting on the tablet.
Back in June, HP announced that it was willing to license webOS, but that was mostly for manufacturers producing products outside of HP's usual areas. As far as HP making back its investment in Palm, that would be unlikely. It is still being said that HP will be exploring ways to license the webOS software, and we do hope that it will finally fall in the hands of a capable smartphone manufacturer, which will take full advantage of the platform and manage to present it to the users in its finest.
Palm brought out webOS back in January 2009 when it introduced the Palm Pre at CES. At the time, webOS was lauded as revolutionary with its cards format and the ability to close an app by simply flicking a card off the screen. But poor marketing by Palm and a weak selection of apps was the downfall of the Pre and soon the launch of the Motorola DROID allowed Android to totally overwhelm webOS.
Is this the end of the line for the software or will a company come forward to keep it alive? We should know who is interested in the next few days.

Upgrade base sound to premium
has anyone upgraded the base system to the Logic 7 more speaker usb plug system? I assume new amp, speakers in the rear, and cables plus programming.
I was quoted $850 locally to install the denison 500, plus 1 hour dealer programming just to add usb access.
Went into buy one of those Bluetooth stereo things for my iPhone 5 to play on my 6 through the radio, sounds like a POS BTW. And the dude from bestbuy was like, my advice install a new system.
I was like, it's a BMW 6 series dude, you guys can't do anything for me. He looked at me like I was crazy. Like I'm going to let some idiot from bestbuy mess with my L7, like they are going to drop in a faceplate system with an aux/ iPhone, yeah right, where?
Browsed tons of threads on people who did some nice upgrades though, hit up a search if no one has advice. Just my opinion, I think the L7 sounds pretty good, just wish I had the iPhone cable without having to sacrifice my CD changer. Quick question though, anyone know where the two subwoofers are, know the system has 13, only counting 11 in the car.
I added two 12 inch subs in the back so bass is no longer an issue. I just want to be able to control my ipod by the car radio itself. I would also like a back-up camera, pdc is only so so. But I don't want to spend $$$ for a crappy result.
