History of the Department
Geography has a long history at the University of Hawai`i at Mānoa. The first classes in geography were taught in 1920 by Harold Palmer. An independent Department of Geography was established in 1931 and has been in existence since, with the exception of the World War II period, when it was briefly merged with the Department of Geology. The first master's degree in geography was awarded in 1933 to Lorna Ho`oleia Jarrett, whose thesis became an important text book on the cultural geography of Hawai`i. After statehood in 1959, the department was rapidly expanded and began to offer a doctorate in geography in 1967. In the years since, the department has graduated over 280 MA and PhD students who have worked as faculty at universities, in government, and in private enterprise.
Some prominent graduates include the University of Hawai`i's Athletic Director Jim Donovan (BA 1982), Hawai`i State Senator Clayton Hee (BA 1975), and Bill Wood (PhD 1985), the former Head Geographer at the US State Department. Perhaps the most well-known of the department's alumni is Lolo Soetoro, President Barack Obama's stepfather, who graduated with an MA in geography in 1964. He met Barack Obama's mother, Anne Dunham, while studying geography at the University of Hawai`i on an East-West Center fellowship.
1920 Harold S. Palmer, a geologist, gave the first courses in Geography at the University of Hawai`i beginning in 1920.
1926 Otis W. Freeman came as visiting professor in 1926-27 and at about the same time J. Edward Hoffmeister also
taught as a visiting professor.
1928 John Wesley Coulter joined the joint Department of Geology and Geography in 1928.
1931 Geography was established as an independent department in Fall and Coulter was appointed as its chair. He was
later associated with the university's Oriental Institute and published widely on Hawai`i and the Pacific in national
and local journals during the 1930's and even after he left Hawai`i in 1941.
1933 The first M.A. degree was awarded to Lorna Ho`oleia Jarrett. Her thesis, titled A Source Book In Hawaiian
Geography, was later published as a text Hawai`i and its People (Honolulu, 1933) that was used in Hawai`i
schools for many years. Lorna Jarrett (later Desha) also taught in the department from 1933 to 1935.
1936 Stephen B. Jones joined the faculty and was also active in publishing about Hawai`i. By the late 1930s the
department offered 15 courses. Another M.A. was awarded in 1940, the last until 1954.
1938 Joseph Rock was appointed Research Professor of the History, Geography and Botany of China. Rock taught
botany at the University of Hawai`i for several years soon after its founding but had moved to China where for many
years he did geographic, ethnographic and linguistic research particularly with the Naxi people sponsored for the
National Geographic Society.
1942-45 During the Second World War the University of Hawai`i was largely given over to the
war effort. The geographers left and the Geology and Geography Departments again were merged
with Palmer teaching all of the courses offered in both subjects until the Fall of 1945.
1945 Raymond E. Murphy taught the geography courses in 1945-46. He had been active in Pacific research on
Micronesian atolls during the war and continued to research and publish in this area until the 1950's.
1946 Margaret Shackleton Mann taught the geography courses during 1946-1947. The two courses were "The Elements
of Geography" and "Economic Geography," still within a combined Geology-Geography Department.
1947 In 1947 Curtis Manchester served as chair of the reestablished Department of Geography for 10 years.
1948 Neal Bowers joined the faculty. Manchester and Bowers, both with Ph.D.'s from Michigan, were the only permanent
faculty until 1958, although there were numerous visitors, beginning a tradition that has continued until the present.
Bowers served as chair from 1957 to 1963. Rohma Bowers, a doctoral candidate in Geography from University of
Michigan, came with her husband Neal. For many years she taught summer school and extension classes in
Geography, and often filled in when the regular faculty were unable to teach their courses. The M.A. was
reestablished in 1948 as a Plan A (thesis) program. At this time the department was housed in Hawai`i Hall.
1952 R. B. Hall joined the faculty as a visitor and served as advisor to Paul Ming Pok Chun who was the first to complete
a MA thesis in 1954 under the new program.
1954 Abraham Pi`ianai`a taught a course on navigation. Later he introduced the course "Geography of Hawai`i", which
became one of the most popular courses on campus. He was director of the Hawaiian Studies Program from
during which time the Program was housed in the Geography Department.
1958 Roland Fuchs joined the department as a permanent faculty member with interests in urban and economic
geography and the Soviet Union.
1959 Following Hawai`i Statehood Governor John Burns, with the support of the legislature, launched a program to make
the University of Hawai`i a first class educational institution. From this time, until about 1971, budgets were
dramatically increased, research units were organized, departments were expanded and there was generous
funding to search for and recruit high quality faculty.
1960 John Street joined the faculty with a strong physical geography background. He was later to expand his interests to
tropical biogeography and soils.
1962 Peter Pirie was hired as a population geographer with regional interest in the Pacific. A Plan B (non-thesis) M.A.
was introduced.
1963 David Kornhauser, a Japan specialist in the University of Hawai`i Asian Studies Program, transferred to Geography.
1964 Roland Fuchs became Chair in 1964 and under his purposeful leadership for two decades the department
underwent a dramatic expansion to nineteen people in 1971. This was made possible in part by shared
appointments including several with the East West Center. This was a time of change and rapid expansion for the
graduate program. Lolo Soetoro, President Barack Obama's stepfather, graduated with a Master's degree in
1965 Forrest Pitts, who had been a visitor in 1952-53, was hired bringing extensive field experience of Korea and Japan
along with an interest in simulation modeling and the bourgeoning use of computers in geographic research. Jen
Hu Chang joined the faculty with a joint appointment as a climatologist with the Water Resources Research
1966 William Clarke, a human ecologist and Gunter Krumme, and economic geographer with interests in location
analysis, took up permanent appointments but only stayed for one year.
1967 Herold Wiens, after his retirement from Yale University, came to the department. For two years he was also director
of the Asian Studies Program. On a leave of absence from UH, he had developed a scheme to have a joint
appointment with Northern Illinois University and the University of Hawai`i when he died in 1971. Donald Fryer, a
Southeast Asia specialist, joined the faculty with a joint appointment in Asian Studies. Sen Dou Chang, who had
taught as a visitor in 1966, was offered a permanent appointment as China specialist and teacher of cartography.
The doctoral program was formally established.
1968 Warwick Armstrong, was hired as medical geographer and soon also to take up a part time appointment with the
School of Public Health. Robert Erickson joined the faculty adding urban geography to strengths and reflecting and
increasing emphasis on quantitative methods. His systematic interests included locational analysis particularly
with respect to health care facilities.
1969 Murray Chapman, who had worked extensively on population mobility in the Solomon Islands, joined the faculty with
a joint appointment with the East West Center Population Institute. Brian Murton was hired to expand the
departments offering on South Asia but also with an interest in cultural and historical geography. Alan
Sommarstrom, with a focus conservation and resource management, was added to the faculty and subsequently
expanded basic undergraduate human geography course from economic geography to one of broader scope.
Paul Schwind joined the faculty with a joint appointment with the Planning and Public Policy Institute.
1970 Wilfred Bach expanded the climatology program with his particular interest in air pollution. Gary Fuller joined the
faculty and his work in fertility added yet another aspect to the population studies program. He also had a joint
appointment with the East West Center Population Institute. The position of administrative assistant was created in
the department that included teaching undergraduate classes and serving as undergraduate advisor. George
Immish, who had earned an MA from the department, was the first appointee to this post.
1971 Everett Wingert was appointed to expand the department's cartography program and Larry Masterson whose
interests were in Asia, retailing behavior and locational analysis. The first doctoral degrees were granted to
Anthony Hughes (Summer) and Prem Prasad (Fall).
1972 Lyndon Wester was hired to expand program in biogeography.
1973 The first edition of the Atlas of Hawaii appeared. This project was directed by Warwick Armstrong although it
involved contributions from most of the department. The work was published by the University of Hawai`i Press and
was one of its best selling volumes for many years. A second edition appeared in 1983, also edited by Warwick
Armstrong. A third edition, significantly revised and in a new format, was produced in 1998 under the editorship of
James and Sonja Juvik, graduates of the Manoa Department and faculty at the University of Hawaii, Hilo.
1974 Manjit Reddick was appointed as administrative assistant. Most of the department moved to the new building
constructed for the social science departments. At different times the building was named the Social Science
Building, Porteus Hall and Saunders Hall. The cartography labs, some offices and a physical geography class
room were retained in the Physical Science Building. They were to be accommodated in a second stage of the new
building that was never constructed.
1975 Tim Chow joined the faculty with a joint appointment in Urban and Regional Planning. Bryce Decker, a graduate of
the University of Hawai`i, and who had been employed periodically from 1961 as a lecturer, began to teach
regularly in the department.
1977 Andrew White, a location analyst was hired in a joint appointment in Social Science and Linguistics Institute and
John Sorensen, a hazards specialist, was recruited. Reflecting more difficult economic times, these hires were
made into temporary positions that were never made permanent. Abraham Pi`ianai`a was appointed to plan a
Hawaiian Studies Program of which he became director to following year.
1978 Joe Morgan joined the faculty in a visiting position and maintained a continuous relationship with the department
beyond his retirement. For some of this time he occupied a joint appointment with the Environment and Policy
Institute of the East West Center.

Urban and Regional Planning. Eugene Shen was appointed administrative assistant.
1985 Matthew McGranaghan was recruited to expand the cartography and remote sensing program.
1986 Brian Murton, who had been serving as Acting Chair in the temporary absence of Roland Fuchs as Vice Rector of
United Nations University, became chair. Tom Giambelluca, who was a student of recently retired Jen Hu Chang,
was hired from his position as a researcher in Water Resources Research Center. Mark Ridgely, also with an
interest in water resources, was also recruited to establish a strong department focus in hydrology and water use
and management.
1987 Nancy Lewis was appointed Secretary General of the XVII Pacific Science Congress and, with small staff and
support group, began organizing the next congress out of a geography department office
1988 Jonathan Goss was recruited. His systematic interests were social theory but with field experience in Indonesia
and the Philippines.
1989 The Hawaii Geographic Alliance was founded with the support of National Geographic Society to promote
geographic education in schools. In initial grant for planning was awarded in 1987 and Bryce Decker and Thomas
Ohta were the first directors. The Alliance was provided permanent space in the Department and in 1992 Mary
Francis Higuchi took over the directorship. Workshops for school teachers were arranged, a resource center for
geographic education was created and the state Geography Bee was organized as an annual event.
1990 Mary McDonald was hired as a Japan specialist and Ross Sutherland joined the faculty as the first
geomorphologist in the department since Palmer.
1991 XVII Pacific Science Congress, with the theme "Towards a Pacific Century: The Challenge of Change" was held in

and she chose Geography as her home department. Ross Sutherland became the chair of the department.
2007 Qi Chen was hired to expand the department's offerings in geographic information sciences and remote sensing.
2008 Reece Jones and David Beilman were hired. Reece Jones reintroduced political geography courses and his work
in South Asia strengthens the department's regional expertise. David Beilman researches the global
environmental impacts of climate change.
The Department has been fortunate over the years to have welcomed many geographers as visitors who spent summers or semesters teaching classes for faculty on leave, conducting research and generally enriching the intellectual environment. These include: Murray Bathgate, Tim Bayliss-Smith, Harold Brookfield, Ross Cochrane, David Chiang, William Craig, Harm DeBlij, George Demko, Philip Gersmehl, Norton Ginsberg, Mahammad Hemmasi, Ron Hill, John Holmes, Graeme Hugo, James Gibson, Clyde Kohn, Dan Luten, Geoffrey Martin, Cotton Mather, Shannon McCune, Roger McLean, David Miller, Phil Muercke, Alec Murphy, Yi Fu Tuan, Marie Sanderson, Arthur Robinson, John Sherman, Henry Stewart, Bruce Thom, Andrew Turk, Eric Waddell, Jess Walker, Crosbie Walsh, Connie Weil, I-Shou Wong.
Thanks to the many people who have contributed information for this timeline, the majority of which was prepared to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Department in 2001. A key source was Fifty Years of Geography at Manoa: A Sketch edited by Brian Murton who researched the history of the department with a group of graduate students as class project in the course History of Geographic Thought.

This has become my "going somewhere & need great hair" product!
I love it with the Satin Roots LI. With the higher dewpoints, I have started using a medium to firm hold gel and it is still working great. I also always use a serum-type product before I diffuse. In the cooler temps, or days with little to no humidity, I use CIAB. In higher dewpoint weather, I prefer Curls Gel-les'c. I don't need a lot, about a dime for my hair. I scrunch it in after taking out my Curlease towel and right before diffusing.
My hair has well defined curls and feels really soft. I love this line.

A family tree can be very illuminating, but there can be some surprises in those branches, too. A recent mBio paper delves into the ancestry of Streptococcus agalactiae, a.k.a. Group B Strep (GBS), and uncovers some unexpected facts about the bacterium's family history. Sørensen at al. examined 15 housekeeping genes to plot the phylogeny of a collection of 238 bovine and human GBS isolates from nine countries to determine what evolutionary processes might be behind the emergence of the disease.

The Got Talent franchise has generated spin-offs in over 30 countries since it began in the in the UK in 2007. Here's a round up of the best (and worst) of what you've been missing. 1. America's Got Talent – The one with the best prize Now into it's sixth season, the US version offers the biggest prize of them all: one million dollars and the opportunity to perform at the Caesar's Palace complex in Las Vegas. The judging panel features our very own Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne, who crowned Michael Grimm (pictured above), a 31-year-old singer/songwriter from Missisipi, last year's winner. All previous champions of the show have been singers. 2. Australia's Got Talent – The one with the most variety With Dannii Minouge and former Westlife member Brian McFadden on the panel you'd think they'd be swayed towards musicians, but Aboriginal pole dancer Matty Shields made the semi finals only last week, along with skipping rope dancers Rock N Roll Ropers and Comedians Dash & D'Bree. Former winners include a guitarist named "Smokin'" Joe Robinson, and father and son musicians Cameron and Taylor Henderson who entered separately and came 2nd and 3rd respectively in last year's final. 3. Ireland's Got Talent – The one with the best judges Boyzone's Shane Lynch sits on the panel for this version, The All Ireland Talent Show, alongside a TV presenter, a weatherman and Eurovision Song Contest winner, Dana. The show sees five regions; Ulster, Dublin, Munster, Connacht, and Leinster compete against each other, with traditional Irish group The Mullkerrins winning the first series and Chloe Coyle from County Tyrone crowned champion last year. 4. Ukraine's Got Talent – The one with actual talent Don't you wish you could animate sand? No? Well you've obviously not seen specialist artist Kseniya Simonova, who won the first series of Ukraine's Talent in 2009. The video of her unusual art generated over one million views around the world on the day of the final and she recently showcased her skills alongside the Ukranian entry in this year's Eurovision Song Contest. 5. Slovenia's Got Talent - The one with the youngest star Slovenia discovered their very own Connie Talbot in seven-year-old singer Lina Kuduzovič last year. She became the youngest winner of a Got Talent show when she won the public vote in Slovenia's first ever series. 6. Lithuania's Got Talent – The one with the best instrument The first ever winner of the Lithuanian show in 2009 proved you don't always need an instrument to be able to create 'beautiful' music. His object of choice? His teeth. 7. Denmark's Got Talent – The one that put rap on the talent map The Danish spin-off was the first franchise to crown a rapper, Kalle Pimp, as a winning act in 2009. The Norway version followed the year after, with the Romanian spin-off finding a winning rapper for their first series which began this year. 8. Germany's Got Talent – The one with the dancing dog The winner of the third season in 2009 was Yvo Antoni who performed with his dog Prima Donna, becoming the first animal-supported act to win. 9. Estonia's Got Talent – The one you can try at home Estonia's only talent champion to date is the winner of their 2010 series. Erki-Andres Nuut chose an everyday object, a leaf, to create his memorable performance. Do try this at home. 10. Korea's Got Talent – The one we can't wait for South Korea's version is set to premiere next month, and after all this lot the pressure really is on to come up with something original. Can they do it? Watch this space... Like this? Share it. Facebook Twitter Google Tumblr Pinterest Blogger Reddit VKontakt Print Email

CHICAGO - Iowa challenged the women's soccer team early-on Friday night, as Loyola suffered a 4-0 loss to the Hawkeyes after winning its season opener against DePaul. The Ramblers worked to adapt to Iowa's speed of play, shuffling positions and gaining a valuable learning experience.
"I thought the girls had some very good developments during the game," said head coach Barry Bimbi. "I thought we had some good performances tonight, moving some girls around to try and fill a few holes from injuries."
Iowa dominated the first half, leading 10-1 in shots over the Ramblers, posting four within the first seven minutes. A shot from 18 yards out by Ashley Catrell gave the Hawkeyes the lead 1-0 in the 16th minute. Loyola struggled to recover, giving up two more goals by the 28th minute courtesy of Cloe Lacasse and Katie Nasenbenny. Ana Claudia Michelini recorded a shot for the Ramblers, saved by Hannah Clark with only two minutes left.
Upon the return of the game, Loyola was on the upswing, taking advantage of opportunities on offense. Another goal by Iowa extended the Hawkeyes lead 4-0 in the 60th minute.
Alex Brown created momentum up top, leading the Ramblers in shots as Loyola closed in on Iowa's defense. The team would end with six shots in the second half, a significant improvement over the start of the game. Goalkeeper Carly Stevens was credited with five saves.
"There are definitely some positives coming out of this game," said Coach Bimbi. "The biggest thing is to continue to play how we want to play against these BCS schools. Trying to find some success with our play allows us to adapt to the speed and athleticism of these bigger schools. Our challenge is to get better and improve on what we didn't do well and what we did do well."
Loyola continues the season on the road, traveling to Madison, Wis. on Sunday where the team will play the Wisconsin Badgers. This will be the third straight away game of the season for the Ramblers.


text: Forge Motorsport Announces "The Splitter" Share Comments The Splitter is a truly remarkable valve that gives a combination of blow-off and recirculation valve operation all at the same time and has been specifically designed for the many VAG 1.8T applications. This means you get all the noise of the blow off valve whilst retaining the compatibility with the recirculation requirements of the engine management system. As a bonus we also offer the ability to convert the valve to recirculation only mode for those times when stealth running is required. This valve uses a Copper and Zinc alloy piston which utilizes new sealing technology along with a variable spring pre-load incorporating a ratchet-type top adjuster that will allow for the positive and precise adjustment to match the valve to your engine. This is achieved by using a unique single, conical, progressive-rate spring that can allow for the retention of boost pressure over a wide adjustment range. This unique spring design also allows for unrestricted piston travel and flow volume regardless of the amount of pre-load adjustment added to the spring. Other manufacturers valves using cylindrical springs with adjustable pre-load often experience restricted piston travel and a reduction in flow volume. When we say our products are Engineered For Performance it's not a catchy sales phrase, it's the truth and we prove it with every product we manufacture.

Looking for an App Developer to Pay You for Your App Ideas?
Everyone has that moment of brilliance, flash of inspiration, or spark of creativity needed to make something new and unique. Sometimes, that moment manifests itself as an app idea. Alas, many new businesses starting today (the majority, as far as we've noticed) are based around the vibrant app industry. You've heard it from us before; you can either code the app yourself which takes lots of time and knowledge, you can pay a programmer which adds up to be quite expensive, or you can use Applits which will develop your idea with no cost to you while you receive cash and royalties.
Obviously, Applits isn't the only company that pays for app ideas. There are plenty of other businesses online that will let you submit your app idea (usually for a fee ranging from $1-$15) to their website. Your app idea then goes through a review process by the owners of the company, often programmers, to determine if your idea will be developed or not. Submitters of these ideas selected for development usually get a monetary reward and royalty money, similar to the Applits system.
So, why is the Applits process so much better?
Needless to say, we think Applits is far superior to these types of services…but for this argument, we actually have some cold hard reasoning! First of all, our user community is our panel of experts; we think that you guys know what ideas are best, and what types of apps are missing in your app stores.
The Applits community works together to refine your app idea during Voting Week, and when the crowd's votes are achieved, this proves the desirability of the end product by smartphone users around the world before development even begins. This is much different than our app-idea-gathering competitors. For them, it's just a small group of "experts" that decide if your idea is up to snuff enough to be developed. Who is to say that this handful of programmers are the best to determine the potential success of an app,..more expert than you?? Insulting! And nine times out of ten, it turns out that these companies only have one or two apps actually developed and released into the app stores…they don't actually "accept" many ideas whatsoever, so your chances are pretty slim.
Elaborating off of the "our process proves the desirability of the end product" point, we are huge fans of our Voting Week here on Applits. This voting system is, in a sense, a way to track the number of "I love this app idea, and if Applits developed it I would surely download it" reactions to each idea. If your app idea wins, then, this means even more money in your pocket…because we have that marketable user base who said they were interested in your idea to share the developed product with and, in turn, provide you with more of a chance to cash in on that percentage of net profits that comes with your victory.
Lastly, Applits develops more apps than all of our idea-buying competition. We start development on two new apps every month, and most development companies that buy app ideas only make a few apps a year! Since we develop a lot of different apps, that means your app idea has a greater chance of getting developed than if you submitted it with another company…and, you don't have to waste that $1-$15 submitting it in the first place. It's free, painless, and simple!
We are proud of Applits, we love our community, and we love apps! Hopefully you decide to submit your app idea with us, and we look forward to interacting with you onsite!
Here's to your creativity!

Hi, I have an idea for an App. It will help people communicate more easily with deaf people. The person taps in a message to the iPad/phone and the message is reinterpreted into animated sign language which can be displayed to the person who is deaf. Anyhow, that's the idea which can evolve into a two way conversation. Let me know if we can take it to the next level.
Can our idea be submitted more than once? What happens if we have the rolling stones of an idea one month but it just happens to be the same month that someone submits the Beatles of an idea if you get my drift?
In other words, in any given month our idea could blow all others out of the water but we just happen to submit the month that some guy comes along with an app called 'angry birds'. Can we try again next month?
I have a App idea that could be used for Ipads, and it also become a simple computer program as well especially into television broadcasting. It believe it would be more convenient for film editors.
What about gaming ideas. Do you except those type of submissions
Thanks.Will be submitting soon.
I made a mistake and posted my submission in comment. Can you please and review submission
thanks for this site.
i have some ideas for game so could you tel me where should i send it. i'm a student so don't know more about sending ideas so could anyone hel me for it…
I submitted an idea to Applits but it was not accepted to Voting Week. I want to submit it again for the next Applits cycle. How do i resubmit my idea?
I want to submit an idea but if it goes all the way up the chain how much percentage does the inventor get for the app? Does the inventor stilll have to compete against everyone in the points?
What if the idea for the app requires a webpage to accompany it? Some examples: Yelp, Facebook, Youtube, ect. Will those ideas be accepted?
I've tried searching through apple's app store and Google's play store but everything turns out with its usual results that are all the same. My idea of an app that most likely has come to mind but based on long and extensive research no one has been able to have it at hand and ready to play. I want to be apart of this certain app's income and not just sale this idea for a quick penny. But I don't know anything about development of apps(ITS NOT ABOUT DRUGS OR SEX). Please, if you would be so kind and give me advise how to get this out there because its like no matter what the law says and what the world thinks about it, people still fight for this kind of service and it would be awesome to be the first one to have it on your mobile phone!
What keeps someone from stealing your idea. Should you patten it before submitting
got an idea for an app, and wish to have a talk about it to some one please

Life is a quest to better ourselves and the condition of our way of living, on the whole. We search for who we are, what our purpose is here for and how we can contribute to the world in order that we can realize more value in ourselves and our existence. The quest for self-improvement is a life-long process. It begins from early puberty until the day we die. Once realization sets in, the quest never ends. It doesn't mean that we have our whole lifetime to grow-up. It simply means that as we mature in years, we should see to it that we also grow in our insights about other people and the world in general so that we become less self-absorbed and more selfless, considerate and bighearted. Improving one's self and one's life is a lifestyle choice. It takes a great amount of practice and determination so that the behavior pattern or attitude becomes habit-forming. When it becomes a part of your everyday life, you'll only want to keep improving yourself and your life as the years go by. This book will give you some great words of advice on improving your life. Here's a preview of sorts: 1. Practice generosity. Be more appreciative of other people. On a daily basis, make it a point to give a kind praise to an officemate, a helping hand to forlorn friend or even give money and food to poor people. Appreciation is kindness and it will always return to you tenfold. 2. Learn to accept the things you cannot change. You cannot change everything in your life. Realize what these things are and then take them on, start working with them instead of against them.

Thanks fulltank,
I have changed the headers to white – and I'll add some social icons to the topbar. I don't really want to change the footer.
Many thanks.
Thank you denoizzed,
I agree with you, I have made it a bit darker.
Realease that as a WP plugin on CC to be honest! You should rack the sales up!
1 month for me, from designing a PSD to Wordpress.
PSD takes the longest!
For each purchase made you will need to purchase a license from TF, or I think you can get 1 extended license if it's available.
I'm not exactly sure if this is allowed though, I think it would be hard to track down how many you sold to the amount of licenses you have purchased.
I think support will have the answer you're looking for!
As there are no replies I'm guessing it's all OK or super bad!
Ok I have fixed many spacing issues and typography issues.
Any comments from the community would be very much appreciated.
I agree,
I think you need a lot more line height with your paragraphs. The text seems to merge together and is hard to read.
Better of asking in the inFocus comments or message the author directly.
It always happens, I'm using chrome.
You could perhaps just use one image, the screen shot and the iphone as one, that would fix it I guess.
The available on the app store text should be a bit lower down, I think it's too close to the list.
Also, instead of having that thick white line bar, perhaps you could put a 3 columns feature section their or something, with the white background?

With Father's Day rapidly approaching, we find ourselves with the same dilemma of always: What do we get them? Another neutral color shirt? A new razor identical to the last? These are the same mundane gifts we've been giving them all their life, and maybe this time we can spice it up a bit more than they're use to.
If the man of the house is exhausted during the day, but has a hard time sleeping at night, creating two products will help them get through the day. One for the evening and one for their morning shower.

Natalie Portman's Husband Is Ready To Convert to Judaism
He said "I Do" to his wife Natalie Portman during a private Jewish ceremony in 2012, and now Benjamin Millepied reveals he is ready to convert to Judaism.
During an interview with the newspaper Yedioth Aharonot, the French photographer said that he is already in the process of becoming Jewish while living with his wife in Israel.
After falling in love with the country, Mr. Millepied decided, just like his wife, becoming Jewish is "very important" to him.
While he is set to move back to Paris to start his new job as the director of dance at the Paris Opera Ballet, the 36-year-old stated he loves Israel and envisioned the country becoming a second home once the couple and their son relocates.
Also discussing his favorite cities in the country, Benjamin admitted, "It is the eternal dilemma between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. At this point, Tel Aviv because of the nightlife and architecture, but maybe I'll change my mind."

Welcome Message from the Dean
Welcome to the Graham School of Management at Saint Xavier University!
On behalf of the faculty and staff of the Graham School of Management at Saint Xavier University, I am delighted to welcome you to our diverse community of scholars working in the Mercy tradition.
Academic excellence and social responsibility form the cornerstones of our mission at the Graham School of Management. Saint Xavier University is the first Mercy institution of higher learning in the United States, and is Chicago's oldest Catholic University. Inspired by its Catholic identity and Mercy heritage, SXU's mission is to educate men and women to search for truth, to think critically, to communicate effectively and to serve wisely and compassionately in support of human dignity and the common good.
Our graduate and undergraduate business programs are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International, the hallmark of excellence in management education. This designation places the School among the top 5 percent of business programs in the world. The School also is one of the signatories of the United Nations-sponsored Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME), as another reflection of our mission as a Catholic business school in the Mercy traditions. The School has been named as one of the (top 15) most innovative small college business departments in the U.S. in recent ranking by Business Research Guide.
The Graham School of Management has an outstanding group of faculty and staff who sincerely care about students' success, and are passionate about mentoring students to develop their leadership skills and professional career. We take great pride on our outstanding alumni who provide internships and mentoring to our students, and offer an extensive network of professional contacts for our students interested in pursuing rewarding career opportunities.
We emphasize three fundamental attributes in our management education that we believe are essential for the success of business leaders and managers in the future global marketplace: Character, Competency, and Commitment (CCC). It is our belief that moral values and business ethics define Character and is the most important attribute of effective leadership. Competency, both in academics and experience, is essential for business management and leadership success. In particular, experiential learning such as internships, field projects, and service learning are integral components of business education in preparing successful and responsible business leaders. Commitment, specifically, persistence to education, is the third important attribute of successful business leaders, and an important aspect of our management education program.
We consider the diversity of our student population, and their commitment to their studies a rich resource for partnership with the business community and economic development of the greater Chicago metropolitan area. We have an outstanding alumni network for executive business mentorship and tremendous opportunity of partnerships between the Graham School of Management and the Chicago community that have translated into internships, field projects, service learning and other experiential learning opportunities for our students.

Grain Mill: Grinding Nuts
Can the Grain Mill grind fresh nuts?
No. Fresh nuts contain too much oil and will cause the shaft to bind up and will ruin the mill. Dried nuts can be ground in the mill. Flax seed is also too oily to grind in the grain mill.

Lyndonville Program Teaches Teens Healthy Eating
06/06/11 12:50PM By Charlotte Albright, Steve Zind
| Download MP3
(HOST) According to the Vermont Department of Health, of all students between eighth and twelfth grades, fourteen percent are overweight. Twelve percent are obese.
To encourage schools to foster healthier habits, the Department hands out awards for programs that seem to be getting results. This year, 39 schools were recognized. One stands out, not just because it's tiny, but also because it faces unusual challenges.
VPR's Charlotte Albright recently dropped by the Lyndon Educational Alternative Resources Network, or "LEARN" in Lyndonville.
(Albright) In a rambling white house on Main Street, L.E.A.R.N got its start almost ten years ago. That's when Kate Campbell and her colleague Ed Ryan quit their teaching jobs and decided to give local kids loitering in the village green during school hours a safer place to hang out, to eat lunch, and maybe get some tutoring. Now, with state accreditation and tuition vouchers, they can even earn a high school diploma. There are only about a dozen students, with about half that many teachers. Some kids have autism, others struggle with mild learning disabilities or emotional problems, and several need to lose weight.
(Nathan Mitchell) "My name's Nathan Mitchell, I'm fourteen, and I come to L.E.A.R.N. I've been here for about a year."
(Albright) Today Nathan and a handful of classmates are learning with teacher Janet St. Onge how to create a healthy food or cosmetic product and devise advertising for it.
Based on solid research, Nathan Mitchell is imagining an energy drink that has all the nutrients you need, but none of the caffeine or sugar that can hurt you. He says he used to eat chips after school every day, but now chooses fruits or veggies. He just wishes his family would follow his example.
(Mitchell) "Let me tell you it's tough. They don't like good food."
(Albright) "So how do you get good food if you don't get it at home?"
(Mitchell) "I've started a
(Albright) Right in his back yard. He's growing tomatoes, lettuce, peas, corn, and even horseradish. But there's also another way these kids are taking control of their diets, right at school.
(Cassie Eliot) "We have more strawberries, sugar-free whipped cream, seltzer water, juice, chicken."
(Albright) That's Cassie Eliot, in the check-out line at the supermarket next to the school. She and a couple of helpers have a big assignment for tonight.
(Eliot) "I gotta cook dinner for everyone."
(Albright) About two hours later, fifteen people -- assorted students, parents and teachers -- sit around a gaily decorated table in the school's central hallway. As Cassie graciously serves chicken and mashed potatoes and fruit salad she collects plenty of compliments. School co-founder Kate Campbell sits back in her chair and smiles. Teaching these kids to eat well and exercise, she says, is paying off in visible and invisible ways."
(Campbell) "We're getting there because we have students who are absolutely obese -- morbidly obese. Who say things to you like, Now I understand. Now I know that I, because I am learning this in school, can buy the right kinds of foods and I can get exercise in. I can do what it takes to make me better - to make myself a better person. And I am worthy of that."
(Albright) Everyone clamors for seconds. But Cassie has made just enough dinner to feed them what they need, and no more.
For VPR News, I'm Charlotte Albright, in Lyndonville.

Edwin Baker managed 64 yards on 17 carries in the week 16 loss to the Jets. RB Chris Ogbonnaya was limited to 2 carries and neither Fozzy Whitaker nor Willis McGahee touched the ball at all. Baker's 64 yards on the ground are the second most by a Browns running back this year.
Fantasy Analysis:
You outmaneuvered your fellow competitors in the war room. Your draft was better, your waiver picks more astute, trades were lopsided in your favor. You have done everything in your power to claim the top spot at the podium.
But your league's championship is week 17.
Suddenly, Andy Reid is considering benching his starters, Houston is rotating running backs, and Calvin Johnson might take the week off. Now, you are expected to win with players like Edwin Baker and Texans RB Jonathan Grimes populating your roster.
Ok, you knew the rules of your league going in. Now you need to find out who is getting a tryout for next season, and who will succeed. Edwin Baker will get the opportunities in Cleveland this week against the Steelers. While the Cleveland running game has been dismal, Baker played pretty well against a stout Jets run D on Sunday, and if you are forced into having a Cleveland RB this week, Baker is your guy. If Baker succeeds this week, he may be an interesting deep dynasty player to keep an eye on.

Though the State Department doesn't have direct responsibility for international adoptions once they're completed, Susan Jacobs expressed interest in working with others in the adoption field to improve support services.
"We need to help parents to find resources when they are having trouble ... so they don't turn to the Internet to get rid of their kids," she said. "This is a horrible practice that can only lead to abuse and neglect."
During the pre-adoption process, Jacobs said, parents should be given accurate information about a child's medical and psychological condition to minimize the chances of frustration later on.
"A lot of people say they have a heart for adoption. But you also have to have a head for it," Jacobs said. "You think love will solve everything. It doesn't."

For a dozen years, this newspaper has warned that West Virginia — with many rural folks attuned to the GOP mantra of "God, guns and gays" — may follow Dixie as a "red state" in national elections. Now, our prediction is underscored by news that Democratic registration in the Mountain State has slipped below 50 percent for the first time since 1932.
The state Republican headquarters is jubilant over the new figures, claiming that a shift of power will be seen in the Nov. 4 general election.
Maybe — but a calm look at facts is needed. Republicans still are a small minority in West Virginia, barely outranking independents. Updated numbers from the secretary of state give this lineup:
Total registration: 1,226,745.
Democrats: 612,288.
Republicans: 353,106.
No party: 233,075.
Libertarian Party: 1,665.
Mountain Party: 1,502.
Other: 25,109.
For the record, Deputy Secretary of State Sheryl Webb says "other" includes names like "Mickey Mouse Party" or whatever labels nonconformists give themselves.
Look back over the past 20 years: West Virginia had only 884,000 registered voters in the 1994 general election — and Democrats outnumbered Republicans more than two-to-one, 65 percent to 30 percent. Independents were tiny then, a mere 4 percent, compared to 19 percent today. The growth of independents has been stunning — partly fueled because both major parties allowed them to vote in party primaries.
Meanwhile, registration drives and the federal "motor voter" law (which lets anyone register while getting a driver license) boosted and broadened the state voter total.
It's true that the Mountain State has backed the GOP national ticket in each election since 2000, and Republicans have made significant gains in state offices. This occurs while the GOP largely serves the rich and tries to slash America's safety net securing average families.
Since West Virginia has multitudes who need the safety net, and few wealthy citizens, you'd think a majority would embrace the party that helps working families. We hope public realization of this obvious fact begins to reverse the state's rightward swing.
Maybe the upcoming Nov. 4 election will show where West Virginia is heading.

Category: name predictions
There's a new Number One boys' name three-quarters of the way through the year. Finn beat out Henry to become the most popular of the boys' names 2010, as the most-searched male name on nameberry for the nine months that just ended.
This is big news, not least because well-liked classic Henry got trumped by a quirky ethnic upstart. Of course, we're talking most searched name here, not most used, and this is nameberry, where the patrons' taste in names tends to be more sophisticated and distinctive than at your average baby-naming site.
Still, reaching Number One – not just for the third quarter, mind you, but for all of 2010 so far – is quite a distinction. So congratulations, Finn, and we're sure we'll be seeing you near the top of the official popularity lists one year soon.
The other major boy name trend evidenced here is the predominance of two-syllable names, with a full two-thirds of nameberry's most popular boys' names 2010 having two syllables and 17 more having (like Finn) just one.
In other news, these names are newcomers to nameberry's Top 100 Boys' Names 2010:
They replace these, which have fallen off the Top 100:
- Satchel – we were gamed on that one
- Nicholas
- Xavier – which has been hovering around #100
- Hugh
- Ian
- Carter
- Holden
- Gavin
- Graham
Names moving up the ladder for the second time in a row include the following, which we now have officially on trend watch:
- Jasper
- Asher
- Atticus
- Milo
- Kai
- Sebastian
- Sawyer
- Joseph
- Theo
- Dashiell
- Hudson
- Rowan
- Beckett
- Declan
- Oscar
- Julian
- Aidan
- Tobias
- Emmett
- Sam
- Jonah
- Micah
- Nico
Names making the biggest leaps upward are:
Three-quarters of the way through the year, we check in again with the most popular girls' names 2010, nameberry style.
Once again, Charlotte heads the list of most-searched girls' names on nameberry. In the number two spot is Violet, and former number two Seraphina has dropped to third place.
A note on tabulation: These lists represent the most-searched names on nameberry for January through September of 2010. Previously, we published the lists of most-searched girls' names 2010 for the first half of the year, and before that for the first quarter.
This time around, a surprising 11 new girls' names vaulted onto the Top 100. The newly-popular choices (in order of appearance on the list) are:
Go straight to lists of unusual names for girls.
Often I'll look up a name I think is attractive or stylish – or even trendy — on Nameberry, and find myself shocked to discover it doesn't rank in the Top 1000. How is it possible that a name du jour like Esme or Clementine, Tallulah or Wren doesn't make it into the 1000 most popular names, I wonder, when it seems to me that every other baby girl I meet has one of these names?
But then I remember that I dwell in the relatively rarified world of Nameberry, where people's taste in names tends to be pretty sophisticated. Plus, some of these names seem poised for a big leap upward – or maybe that's just my imagination? I've marked those I expect to hit the Top 1000 any year now with an asterisk.
The really good news for the moment, though, is that all these names feel eminently stylish without actually being very popular. Top name Bree was given to 262 girls last year; bottom name Louise just 100. (I'll deal with fashionable names given to fewer than 100 girls in another post soon.) So while, if you live in a nameberry kind of neighborhood, it may seem as if all 108 baby Tallulahs were born within three blocks of you, the statistics confirm that it's a highly unusual name nationwide.
That number on the left represents its rank in the complete U.S. tally.
When British Prime Minister David Cameron's wife Samantha was due to deliver their baby recently, there was a flurry of publicity on both sides of the Atlantic concerning the odds being given by bookmakers on various name possibilities. Since this practice is unknown in the US, we put a shout out for a Britberry to explain it, and 'Auburn' answered the call.
On-track betting agencies, or "bookies", have been around for decades, but it was with the legalisation of high street bookmakers that the industry boomed in the UK. Now, the main betting agencies – William Hill, Ladbrokes, Coral and the Irish Paddy Power – not only take bets on the outcome of sporting events, but also novelty bets on the winners of TV reality shows and, most recently, what name would be given to British PM David Cameron's new little girl.
It would take someone with only the most casual of name interests to see that Ladbrokes sorely needs a Nameberry intervention. Its favourites were Lucy, Daisy and Samantha. Lovely names, certainly, but the first two are clearly much too popular for the Camerons, with Lucy at #14 and Daisy at #25 in the UK. The name of their older daughter, Nancy, isn't rare but is nowhere near that level of popularity. The names the couple chose for their sons Ivan, who died tragically at age six last year, and Arthur Elwen, who goes by his middle name, are downright obscure. As for Samantha, the likelihood of Sam Cam giving her second daughter her name in the first slot, when that passing down of names is fairly rare in Britain anyway, is … well, let's just say I wouldn't bet on it.
Certain other companies must have been consulting with Pam and Linda, because William Hill did much better – they gave Florence odds of 16/1: the baby was named Florence Rose Endellion, the last the Arthurian name of the patron saint of the Cornwall village where the child was born. Unfortunately, no bets were placed in her favour, but given their history of comparative accuracy you might want to put your money on Nick Clegg being Flo Cameron's godfather (odds of 6/1).
Why has this trend of baby name betting sprung up? It's all about what sells, and celebrity certainly does that. Novelty bets like these attract people who have no interest in more traditional wagers. It's the same reason that newspapers report the odds so eagerly, too; celebrity babies make good news, but you can't just publish an article speculating on names with no evidence. It's beneficial to both parties for the media to quote the betting stores as though they were an authority on etymology. The pinch of salt these articles have to be taken with is indicated by the fact that one newspaper claimed Lucy was #12 on the top baby names of 2009 … even though statistics for the whole year of 2009 haven't been released by the government yet.
It's not just names that the bookies are taking an interest in, though – Paddy Powers has novelty bets on the first country to have their head of state confirm that they've been in contact with aliens, when the Hadron collider will reach full power and which will be the next volcano to erupt.
Making money aside, several things imply that the betting agencies just like a bit of a giggle over their novelty bets – odds of 500/1 that the panda born recently on a Chinese reserve will be named Paddy Power suggest they don't take themselves too seriously. If you fancy a high risk flutter such as that, you could also bet on odds of 1000/1 that baby Florence will grow up to lead the Labour party (imagine those dinner table debates), and before the release of the iPad you might have considered the 100/1 possibility that it would be called 'iCan't believe it's not a newspaper.'
'Auburn' is a British teen who enjoys linguistics, and by extension is a devoted name lover. She is also passionate about film, theatre and literature, and finds all three to be worthy sources of name inspiration.
This week we're looking for your predictions of what the top boy and girl names will be a decade from now–one for each gender.
Will it be a name that's already in the Top 10 or a dark horse that you see moving up from behind?
Check back with us in 2020 to see the results!

How To Find Calm In The Urban Jungle
The H6 Headphones from B&O PLAY by Bang & Olufsen make the ideal holiday gift for the busy creative professional. [Partner Content]
PSFK has partnered with B&O PLAY by Bang & Olufsen to look at how to incorporate sound seamlessly into hectic urban life.
Space is at a premium on the chaotic streets of nearly every busy metropolis, and carving out a calm oasis can be a challenging task. As we run from the office to a business lunch to a coffee date and then out to the bar in the evening, it is easy to get caught up in the clamor around us, and end up overwhelmed and overstimulated. As urban centers are becoming increasingly populated, people are looking for devices and products that can create the semblance of privacy and calm and keep the outside world from intruding.
One such product are the H6 Headphones from B&O PLAY that offer comfort and function without sacrificing aesthetics. PSFK tested them on the streets of New York to see if they could stand up to the volume of the city.
As more offices drop the cubicle in favor of open plans, a good pair of headphones is essential to keep the constant commotion of phone calls, water cooler conversations and loud lunches at bay. Even in the busiest office setting the H6s will keep you focused and productive. With the volume turned just halfway up, the over-ear design blocks distractions for absolute focus on the task at hand. They absorb outside noise so well that you might not be able to hear your boss talking next to you.
The sleek construction of the design does not take precedence over the technology contained within, but still makes an impression. Whereas many luxury and high-end headphones opt for the style over substance, the classic look of the H6s will age well. The cow-leather head band gains patina when worn over time, giving each pair a look unique to its owner.
An afternoon coffee in the local cafe can be a bustling nightmare that is difficult to tune out. However, the H6s deliver a well-balanced sound with a focus on a clear midrange pitch layered over an even bass and treble performance that ensures you won't fail to notice the nuanced tones of your favorite public radio personalities when working through your latest podcast.
Transitioning between various functions and uses is simple on these headphones. Made to work with iOS and OSX devices, the 3-button remote on the cable pauses audio, skips forward and backwards, changes volume, accepts and declines calls and has an integrated microphone. This allows you to pause your podcast, order a coffee and then take a call all seamlessly and without having to dig out your phone from the deep recesses of your winter coat. The call quality was good on our end, and kept our attention on the conversation despite the general cacophony of the cafe.
Riding on the subway can be one of the noisiest environments in New York. However, wearing the H6s, the screech of the train entering the station was barely audible when listening at ¾ volume. Encased in a bubble of soothing sounds, you can rumble on to your destination undisturbed.
While these headphones don't have actual noise cancellation tech, it's unlikely that you will miss the feature thanks to the H6's high-quality materials. After all day wear, the lamb skin ear pads with memory foam inside kept an even, gentle pressure that never chafed or squeezed uncomfortably.
Complete with a dual cord input, one on each side, so you can wire into whichever side you want or simply share tunes with your friend, the H6s prove themselves to be an excellent pair of luxury headphones for spoiling a special someone (or yourself) this holiday season.

Trethewey Discusses Penn Warren in Final Lecture as PLOTUS
Earlier in the week we mentioned that Natasha Trethewey was concluding her tenure as U.S. poet laureate. Today, we report on her final lecture in which she discusses the poetry of Robert Penn Warren and his transformation from a racist apologist to "an enlightened citizen." Ron Charles at the Washington Post reports:
In her final presentation as U.S. poet laureate, Natasha Trethewey delivered a complex and searching lecture about the ideological evolution of Robert Penn Warren.
At the Library of Congress on Wednesday night, Trethewey began, as she often does, with her personal history and then moved into a rich exploration of America's racial heritage.
As the child of an illegal mixed-race marriage in Mississippi, born on Confederate Memorial Day, Trethewey grew up in the shadow of Jim Crow, in what she called "the most Southern place on earth." She remembers seeing a cross burning near her grandmother's house. It would be easy for her to hold Warren's early racist attitudes against him. But, instead, in her lecture — titled "'The World of Action and Liability:' on Saying What Happens" — she regarded him in a gracious and intellectually complicated way, charting his progress from apologist to enlightened citizen.
How does she do it? Head to the Washington Post to find out!

It is with heavy heart my friends that I must tell you that my most special wife Barb lost her 17 hard fought battle with cancer at 10:25 AM Tuesday 1/8/2013.
She went to the Angels very peaceful with her loved ones by her side.
All your support and prayers through this journey have been much appreciated. The hole in my heart is deep but I continue keep moving forward to make each hour and day a liveable day.
Your friend Rob Horn
PS: We all have a supreme Angel looking over all of us outdoors men and women.
