Included Components
Gorilla Grow Tent 5′x 9′x 6'11″ (7'11″ w/ extension)
The very best and tallest, thickest, and strongest grow tent available. This is the only height adjusting grow tent available worldwide. Truly the best grow room design. GROW STRONG!
Eighteen 5 Gallon Soil Pot
They're soil buckets, what can you say? Actually, plenty. These heavy duty pots feature a reinforced rim making them strong enough to pick up with heavy plants. They feature a side and bottom drain design for superior drainage and offer a wide base for increased stability and the development of a more robust root mass. Trust us, these soil pots are tops.
Dual 600w HPS SuperCool Lighting Systems
This Full Spectrum, Dimmable & Digital, SuperCool Intelligent Lighting System is expertly configured for maximum control, light penetration, temperature regulation, and peak efficiency. It is professionally air-cooled by two high performance fans that bring cool air into the Sunlight Supply's New Blazer 6″ AC Reflector and across the bulb. This keeps temperatures at safe levels for you and your plants. The Reflector is on an adjustable Yo-Yo System making it extremely easy to adjust the height of your light. This ensures zero plant stretch and the greatest light penetration, which will result in maximum photosynthesis. The digital, dimmable ballasts give you the ability to operate your light(s) at 50%, 75%, 100%, and even at the 110% "SuperLumens" setting. This spectacular feature allows you to minimize electrical consumption and maximize your yields. Not to mention that the time-tested reliability of the brand will let you sleep easy. Peace of mind is priceless.
Dual Sunlight Supply Blazer 6″ AC Reflectors
The brand new, top tier Sunlight Supply Blazer 6″ AC Reflector has been designed and optimized to appropriately fill out a square growing area. It is therefore ideal for an indoor grow tent application. Most reflectors cast lumens out in a circular path, leaving corner areas dim and under performing. And unlike most reflectors, with the inclusion of the new 3M neoprene gasket, your closed loop lighting channel will truly remain 100% sealed.
- Tempered Glass
- Featuring hinged glass and neoprene gasket to hold glass tightly in place.
- Powder-coated galvanized steel housing
- 95% reflective European aluminum interior offers excellent secondary lumen distribution and diffusion.
- Air cooling flanges now have a bead ring to keep ducting securely in place.
- EZ-Breeze aerodynamic junction box improves airflow & cooling.
- State of the art design for maximum output and uniformity.
Phresh Carbon Filter
Phresh carbon filters are by far the best filters on the market for larger grow rooms. They utilize an exclusive carbon charcoal fitting that contains unwanted odors much greater than any other on the market. Phresh filters are the only company that has access to this special carbon filling, which results in a completely neutral air environment.
ActiveAir Internal Circulation Fans
Properly sized and placed internal circulation fans are integral to moving all the air around your room. Our design will result in a perfect growing environment. Proper airflow is essential in eliminating mold or mildew and minimizing potential bug problems. Many other packages don't include fans, and if they do, they tend to be inadequate, noisy, and poorly placed.
Hurricane Inline Fan
This commercial grade, high performance fan is made of steel with a durable powder coated finish. It is made with quality UL listed components for reliable and quiet operation.
Trellis System
A trellising system increases your yields up to 30%, as well as greatly maximizing your quality as well. Trellises help support, partition, and train your plants creating equal spacing from each other and assist in the formation of a nice, even canopy, ensuring even light distribution and absorption for each and every plant.
Digital Thermometer / Hygrometer
This handy device gives you the ability to make certain that you are providing your plants with their ideal environment. Effectively measures indoor/outdoor temperature and indoor humidity. Stores the min/max values of your temperature and humidity. Switch between °C and °F. Clock function. 12/24 hour mode switch. Includes a water proof temperature probe.
General Hydroponics pH Control Kit
Is your pH off today? Well, it won't be if you use our pH Control Kit made by General Hydroponics. The kit contains 8 ounces of pH Up, 8 ounces of pH Down, 1 ounce indicator and vial. Each system comes with this kit that keeps your reservoir contents in perfect harmony.
TDS Meter
Is your water source suitable for hydroponics? Did you add the appropriate amount of nutrients? Find out quickly and easily with this digital Total Dissolved Solids Meter. The TDS-EZ has a large and easy-to-read LCD screen. The translucent blue housing is strong and durable and includes a convenient color chart explaining TDS values related to water purity.
Bond Moisture Meter
Take the guesswork out of knowing when your plants need water. The included Bond Moisture Meter will quickly and accurately measure the water content of your soil at all levels in the soil pot. Easy to read display will tell you when your babies need that sweet, sweet nectar of the gods. No batteries needed.

10 Socket Industrial Power Strip

Simply switching your workshop tools on and off can create electrical imbalances that could cause cumulative, permanent damage to your valuable equipment. The Belkin Industrial Power Strip provides clean, safe, and balanced power from 10 grounded outlets.
Analog Timers
Proper grow room design gives you total control. Our light timer gives you the power to control the sunrise and sunset automatically, allowing you to control the season, and ultimately dictate whether your plants vegetate or produce beautiful fruits and flowers. Say hello to stress free vacations!

Volume 8, Issue 3: Whole Counsel
Chris Schlect
The dining hall was full. I liked it that way, because I was new and didn't know anybody. Had the hall been empty, the Code of Smoothness would dictate that I sit alone and play the I'm-Alone-On-Purpose gambit. If you're all alone and sit down with a group of people you don't know, you broadcast this message: Hey guys! `Name's Kenny. I want to sit with you because I'm alone but don't want to be which means that I embarass all I associate with. A packed dining hall is different. There you play the I'd-Rather-Be-Alone-But-I'll-Let-You-Speak-To-Me ploy. So I sailed my tray into an open slip at a crowded table, right next to a girl who needed to meet me. The ploy was on.

University of the Philippines Preparatory High School
University of the Philippines Preparatory High School (UP Prep) is one of three affiliated institutions forming University of the Philippines Integrated School (UPIS), the others being UP High School (UPHS) and UP Elementary School.
In the 1940s UP extended its campus to Diliman, Quezon City. Initially, UP High was established as a service school for UP staff. It later developed into a laboratory school when the university offered Bachelor of Science in Education (BSEEd) as a program in 1961.
In 1954, UP Preparatory School was created with a special curriculum focusing on science and mathematics while forwarding the graduates into UP college programs. Both UP Prep and UPHS were considered exclusive schools with high competition for admission.
The two schools eventually merged in 1974 to become University High School, also known as University of the Philippines Integrated School, with kindergarten, elementary and secondary school students.
Education program
UPIS follows its own unique curriculum called the Life Career Development Program which allows students to prepare for college while in high school. Also notable are its class system and medium of instruction.
As pupils enter kindergarten, they are assigned to one teacher and enter the Integrated Basic Skills Development and Socialization Program. By grade three, they enter the general academic program with different instructors for each subject. By grade eight, pupils may choose their electives, and by. grade ten, they select a work program and enter the college of their choice.
This system runs from kindergarten to grade ten, with high school consisting of grades seven through ten.
All students are also required to join cocurricular activities like Citizen Advancement Training (CAT) and scouting.
As per UPIS Faculty Meeting on 11 March 2003, the students' medium of communication will be Filipino except in CA English, Music and Arts, Science and Mathematics.
Iskolar ng bayan
The only entry point to UPIS is kindergarten. The school does not accept transferees. Pupils who have left the program cannot re-enter and the slot left open is non-transferable except for children of UP personnel. Lateral entrants such as these are permitted by the school's Socialized Tuition and Financial Assistance Program.
Admission is based on the entrance exam, which can only be taken once. The school only admits 100 pupils at a time,about 60% of which are children of UP personnel. All applicants must be five to six years old to qualify.

This is admittedly theoretical, as there are no surviving pairs of braies that I am currently aware of. I feel I have gotten fairly close to a historically plausible pattern here, based on a review of extant documents, and images in the available Mss. of the period. They do not fit exactly as one sees in the Mss., with that skin tight spandexy kind of look, but given the materials involved, that can't really be expected. Cutting them on the bias, which I did try, does not get one significantly closed to that look, and certainly not enough to justify the additional fabric used. On the whole I have tried to stay with the period style habit of using geometric shapes where possible, and using gussets to add ease and flexibility.
These are, as noted in the original article, the most commonly seen types of braies for the early 1400 period. They consist, in my theoretical pattern, of three pieces, right leg, left leg, and crotch gusset, as seen below.
Fig 1: Pieces to be cut and measurements to be taken
Measurements: All measurements should allow for ease, and for seam allowance.
A: One quarter the measurement around the waist.
B: Desired length if the braies. I usually go a couple of inches above the knee, but shorter or longer is acceptable. I wouldn't actually go to or below the knee.. Remember to allow some for the drawstring sleeve foldover at the top.
C: Rise. This can be measured fairly closely, as the gusset will provide ease.
As to the gusset itself, I usually cut these in fairly standard sizes. For the large/Extra large person, I will cut a 6"x6" square. For medium/small, a 5"x5", and for very small persons (children and very small adults...) I will cut a 4"x4".
1. Join the legs together at the center seams. I usually leave a bit open at the front for ease of... well, use. This part I'll do a rolled hem on.
2. Join the gusset to the front of the braies. This is done by sewing one edge of the gusset from the center seam out as far as it goes along the inside leg, and doing the same on the other side.
3. Join the gusset to the rear of the braies. Done as above.
4. Sew the remaining inside leg seams.
5. Hem bottom of the legs.
6. Make sleeve for drawstring at top. I have a tendency to sew the drawstring in as I'm makingĀthe sleeve, but I don't like playing with bodkins, so do what's best for you in the matter.Ā
In the end you should have something that, when laid out flat, looks rather like the figure below.
Fig. 2: Flat layout of finished braies.
I know it looks kinda odd, but it actually does work. I tried making the top flat, so that the legs hung straight, but that gave me a lot of bulk at the top, which, besides being on the uncomfortable side, did not lend itself to the look I was trying for. These are quite comfortable, and really pretty easy. Wear them in good health!

A second double-blind, placebo-controlled, pilot trial, conducted simultaneously, showed that 50% of the subjects on MSM showed increased nail length and nail thickness growth compared to the group on placebo. Approximately 10% of those on placebo showed increased nail length growth. None of the subjects on placebo showed an increase in nail thickness.
Based on the results of the two trials, Dr. Lawrence concluded: "oral supplementation with MSM is a valuable addition to hair and nail growth. Hair and nail health was significantly improved in a short term of six weeks. If the trials were continued for eight to sixteen weeks, the results would have been even better for those on MSM."
The hair trial involved a total of 21 patients - 5 women and 16 men. Data was collected by certified cosmetologists under the direction of Dr. Lawrence. The trial parameters included hair length, brilliance, and diameter of the individual hair shafts using industry standard measurement scales.
The nail trial involved a total of 11 subjects -10 women and 1 man. Again, data was collected by certified cosmetologists. Trial parameters included nail length, thickness, luster and general appearance using industry standard measurement scales.
"All subjects supplemented with MSM were duly impressed with the changes in the health and appearance of their hair," said Dr. Lawrence. "The cosmetologists literally could differentiate which participants were on MSM by the appearance of the hair, alone, after six weeks."

CBS renews 'Dome,' CEO says 'Big Brother' racism 'appalling'
Published 12:54 pm, Monday, July 29, 2013
Beverly Hills --
CBS president and CEO Les Moonves today announced, to no one's surprise, that the network has ordered up a second season of its new sci-fi hit, "Under the Dome."
The announcement came as Moonves kicked off two days of CBS presentations at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour.
In addition to the second-season go-ahead, CBS announced that Stephen King will write the script for the first episode of the new season. The CBS series is based on King's novel of the same name.
The CBS chief honcho also addressed the issue of racist remarks by members of the current "Big Brother" cast. Saying he watches every episode because if he didn't, his wife -show host Julie Chen - would kill him, Moonves said he found some of the behavior on the show "absolutely appalling, personally."
On the other hand, that comment followed his reference to the show during his opening remarks, when he said, "Because of 'Under the Dome,' because of the ratings of 'Big Brother,' we're having a very good summer, which follows, obviously, an extremely good season last year."

Touring the Thomas J. Moyer Ohio Judicial Center
The Supreme Court of Ohio is housed in a building rich with history, art and unique architectural features. Thousands of visitors tour the Thomas J. Moyer Ohio Judicial Center each year.

The tour includes information about the building history, art, architecture, Ohio history and the workings of the court system. The tour also includes the award-winning Visitor Education Center, which showcases a permanent exhibit dedicated to the history of the court system in Ohio and the ever-present role of the law in the everyday lives of Ohioans.

Not so curious if you think about the history. When variable names
could not be very long (originally an 8 character limit) it no doubt
seemed more obvious that groups of variables could be managed by
having the same prefix. Managing suffixes too would have been a
stretch, although not illogical.
-renpfix- was added as an official command some years before -rensfix-
(STB) was published as a user-written command. As you made clear
earlier in the thread, both are superseded for Stata 12 users by the
new -rename-.

Parley Hatchwrote a review of Optimus Svea Stove on June 8, 2010
A light, when all others go out
I'm biased here, because the roar of this stove is the soundtrack to the outdoors as long as I can remember. I was given mine when I was ten, and spent hours on the back porch learning its quirks and how to light it. I own several other stoves, and they have their purpose, but this stove is the best I own. It clanks around, it's tarnished, it's bulky and on the heavy side, but I go back to it every time. I like the comfort of knowing I have a hot meal or a hot cup of coffee, whatever the conditions or temperature. It's earned it's spot in my pack.

I think this can not quite do it, since the chroot will need to be a woody chroot but get at least partially upgraded in each test to allow installation of the sarge and sid packages. It looks like piuparts is otherwise close to the tool I need. -- see shy jo

Patient-Centric Tools for Regional Collaborative Cancer Care Using NGI
This project plans to investigate the application of collaborative tools in a distributed and differentiated medical enterprise, the Seattle area Cancer Care Alliance (CCA). The applications should: 1) enhance the CCA partner's existing clinical care programs into new highly collaborative patient-centered interdisciplinary efforts; 2) allow for a fully integrated team approach to cancer, i.e., state-of-the-art diagnosis, treatment and management of cancer patients through collaboration of distributed cancer care clinicians and researchers; 3) accelerate the dissemination and application of new knowledge related to the diagnosis and the treatment of cancer, both inside the enterprise and throughout the region. They propose to examine the application of collaborative technologies to the three areas of physician interaction with patient information in the diagnosis, management and treatment of cancer: consultations between referring physicians and CCA physician, including the patient; tumor board conferencing; and radiation oncology treatment planning.

Connectivity, Security, and Performance of an NGI Testbed for Medical Imaging Applications
The objective of this project is to implement an NGI testbed in Northern California's San Francisco Bay Area for medical imaging applications. The two regional sites are the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), and Stanford University. This NGI testbed will be built on two existing high performance networks. The goal is to provide insight into NGI capabilities with respect to: performance in a regional environment; potential for extension to national level; and necessary improvements needed. The evaluation of the clinical applications include: impact of telemammography consultation service in a regional environment compared with a local level; and how real-time interactive teaching in breast imaging would improve the confidence level of general practice radiologists. The two characteristics of NGI that will be utilized include file size capability and near real-time transmission.

Indianapolis Testbed Network for NGI Applications to Telemedicine
Indiana University proposes to convert the Indianapolis Network for Patient Care (INPC) into a testbed of NGI technologies including IP security (IPsec), Quality of Service (QoS) in televideo applications at a nursing home, and IP roaming capabilities with portable wireless workstations in clinical settings. The project plans to conduct randomized trials to test the effects of nursing home televideo and nomadic computing in the clinical environment. They plan to perform a trial to determine the effects of patient-physician videoconferencing and batch video applications (linked to web-based electronic medical records) on health services utilization and physician/patient satisfaction at a 250-bed remote nursing home. The project will also perform a cross-over trial of hand-held personal computers, evaluating the effects on physician behavior by time-motion studies, physician satisfaction, and patient encounter data. These hand-held computers will be equipped with capabilities for computerized order-entry, access to patient data, task-list management, and e-mail.

Internet Protocol Video Telemedicine and Patient Cardiology Education
The purpose of this project is to address the technical issues impacting the delivery of telemedicine and sophisticated medical education using IP video over the Next Generation Internet (NGI). IP video over NGI has the potential to provide a common telecommunication infrastructure for real-time high bandwidth medical applications that cannot be supported by the commodity Internet. NGI solutions for real-time telemedicine with high bandwidth video and audio requirements could eventually eliminate the need for expensive dedicated telemedicine networks and give broader access to these services. As part of the project extensive evaluation, including impact on patient care, will be done. Technical and clinical protocols will be developed for all applications.

A Multicenter Clinical Trial Using NGI Technology
NGI technology will be applied to provide the infrastructure of a multicenter clinical trial of new therapies for adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a fatal neurologic genetic disorder. This project involves the formation of a worldwide imaging network of clinical institutions to evaluate ALD therapies. This network is required to provide a sufficient number of patients for evaluating ALD therapies. This can serve as a model for many other disorders. Three centers will collaborate on this project. The Imaging Science and Information Systems (ISIS) Center at Georgetown University Medical Center, the Kennedy Krieger Institute and the Department of Radiology at Johns Hopkins University. NGI technology will be used to speed the transmission and evaluation of high quality MRI images. Another important feature of this proposal is to gain insight into procedures that will ensure medical data privacy and security.

PathMaster: A Web-Accessible Cell Image Database Indexed by Mathematical Descriptors and Supported by Parallel Computation
The project will develop the PathMaster computer system as a testbed. PathMaster is designed to help the pathologist with the process of making a diagnosis in a cytologic specimen. Phase II focus will be on the analysis of lymphoma touch preparations and thyroid aspirates. To use PathMaster, the pathologist creates digitized images of a selected set of cells from a specimen and submits these to PathMaster over the Web. Each image is automatically subjected to a computational analysis to determine more than 2,000 mathematically derived descriptors. Each image will then be compared to a database using network-based parallel computation. The analysis will produce ranked sets of images from specimens whose diagnosis is known. Images will be returned to the user to help in making a diagnosis. A variety of NGI testbed evaluations will be performed.

Remote, Real-time Simulation for Teaching Human Anatomy and Surgery
Stanford University proposes to develop two teaching applications and a local NGI testbed network for evaluating their effectiveness. The first application will support instruction in human anatomy and the second the performance of surgical manipulations. Both applications will support synchronous collaboration through a shared virtual workspace and use haptic feedback to augment the visual sense. This technology will allow the definition of new curricular elements including the repeated dissection of anatomical structures, the visual segmentation of raw data sets, the creation of 3D organ models, and the practice of fundamental surgical skills. The investigators anticipate that a wide community of teachers and users will, through a distributed client-server system, share on-line, image-rich data and professional experiences.

Medical Nomadic Computing Applications for Patient Transport
The objective of this project is the real-time transmission of multimedia patient data from an incident scene and during transport to a receiving center enabling diagnostic and treatment opportunities prior to arrival. The offeror will use the diagnosis and treatment of challenging clinical models - including acute ischemic stroke and trauma scene response - to define a range of Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for multiple critical care applications, evaluate the effectiveness of the system, and derive principles of nomadic computing applicable in other time sensitive emergency care models in which treatment options are constrained by the delay between onset/injury and definitive diagnosis. TRW and the University of Maryland, Baltimore had previously developed a Mobile Telemedicine System (MTS) for remote, real-time diagnosis using narrow bandwidth wireless technologies, but suffered from QoS problems. Phase III will extend the trial in a larger regional setting.

Remote Treatment Planning System (RTPS)
This proposal addresses the development, implementation, and evaluation of an application to support remote treatment planning for radiation therapy. This application, Remote Treatment Planning System (RTPS), relies on network infrastructure technology for collaboration; on high bandwidth and quality of service (QoS) to support interactive review sessions; and on data privacy and security to protect patient privacy, confidentiality, and data integrity. Review sessions provide a collaborative environment for dosimetrists at the planning site, the oncologists at the care delivery site, and peer reviewers. It utilizes video teleconferencing and a shared view of the images to support treatment planning. The evaluation will measure outcomes at the care delivery site, process improvements at the treatment-planning site, and estimate cost impact on the remote treatment planning process. Phase III is proposed to deploy the application and test bed features to Peninsula Regional Medical Center in Salisbury, Maryland. Connectivity will be provided by the State Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) backbone, NetWork.Maryland.

Next Generation Internet (NGI) Implementation to Serve Visible Human Datasets Phase II: Development of Test Beds
The University of Michigan (UM) Visible Human (VH) Project team will develop a Next Generation Internet (NGI) production system to serve visible human datasets. These include a comprehensive set of interactive 2D and 3D VH browsers with arbitrary 2D cutting and 3D visualizations. An interactive Web navigation engine will be deployed to create and visualize anatomic fly-through, under haptic control of the user, and to deliver fly-through developed by expert anatomists and clinicians. Anatomical labels will enhance these visualization sequences, and enable real time links with appropriate resources on the Web using XML. The UM NGI VH system will complement and extend currently deployed passive Web information systems with active computational services. This will allow for delivery of several simultaneous high quality digital streams, creating structured medical knowledge using the VH datasets. An evaluation team will continually respecify and focus the testbed deployments, and measure performance and educational effectiveness.

Mammography for the Next Generation Internet, Phase II
The University of Pennsylvania proposes to develop a testbed to demonstrate the feasibility of a national breast imaging archive and network infrastructure to support digital mammography using Next Generation Internet (NGI) technologies. They plan to improve access and performance of breast cancer screening with an imaging archive that supports storage, retrieval and distribution of breast images for clinical and research purposes and ensures privacy and confidentiality with multilevel security embedded throughout the system. The proposed infrastructure would: 1) support traditional breast screening through the maintenance and distribution of a digital record of prior breast examinations and relevant medical history for primary interpretation and expert consultation; 2) provide the opportunity to maintain and apply computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) software at central, well-maintained computing resources to studies from all women; 3) provide unique tools for creating educational and training programs; and 4) create an unparalleled opportunity to study and understand many epidemiologic issues in breast cancer through searches of a national breast screening database. NGI technologies will be used to transfer large data files, execute real-time queries, and access information securely. The testbed will demonstrate that QoS (quality of service), medical data privacy and security, nomadic computing, network management research and development, and infrastructure technology for collaboration, are NGI technologies that are integral to widespread deployment and optimal utilization of digital mammography.

Easy Email Switching with Remail.me
A TRO trainee pointed out a great service you need to know about. Remail.me saves you a ton of time when switching email addresses. It's easy, it's thorough, and it's cheap. (You can read his forum post here. Thanks for the tip, Andy!)
According to Remail.me, "there are six steps to switching email addresses smoothly." We agree. Here is what Remail does with minimal effort on your part:
1. Analyzes your old account
Figure out who has sent you email, who you have sent email to, how often, and how recently. Remail.me shows it all to you automatically.
2. Tells some correspondents that you've moved
You don't want to nofity the spammers about your new account. Remail.me lets you choose who gets notified.
3. Watches for messages from people you care about
Remail.me monitors your old account for emails from people you want to see, forwards the email to your new account, and optionally reminds them about the new email address.
4. Gives people you've overlooked a way to get back in touch
For those who slipped through the cracks, Remail.me tell them that you've moved (without disclosing your new email address) and lets them ask you to add them to your new contact list. You decide from there.
5. Builds a clean, complete address book
This has always beens a tough step for new webmail accounts. Remail.me exports your newm scrubbed contact list in an easily-imported format for your new account.
6. Keeps watching
This is kinda like #3, only long-term and passive. Remail.me keeps watching the old account for as long as it exists and lets you know about other emailers you might like to stay in touch with. This means you don't lose contact with folks who only email you occasionally.
Pocket Change
The cost? A measly $5 per email account, which includes 60 days of active remailing and free long-term account monitoring. You can automatically remail for an entire year for only $15 more.
This is a no-brainer. Add it to your social bookmark list and use it to consolidate your unneeded email addresses. You'll get rid of a lot of the spam and clutter in the process.

A Salmon Passage Restored at Klawock Lagoon
Migrating salmon are benefitting on Prince of Wales island
On Prince of Wales Island, fish have returned to an historic migration corridor.
Salmon once moved freely through the north channel into Klawock Lagoon.
The Klawock River originally met the sea via two channels, which provided a healthy flow of seawater through the lagoon. Under these conditions, expansive beds of saltwater-loving eelgrass offered a protective nursery for young salmon in the lagoon. After the causeway sealed off the lagoon's north channel, salinity levels declined and the size of the eelgrass beds dwindled. A new causeway allows for salmon passage once again, and offers the long-term benefit of restoring the tidal flows.
It's the first time in nearly 50 years: Video cameras have captured migrating salmon passing through a point blocked to tidal flow since a highway was constructed here in 1964. High tides bring migrating salmon through this newly restored channel to Klawock Lagoon, thanks to a Nature Conservancy–led project to install a specially designed culvert that allows high tides to flow through the lagoon's north channel once again.
Spawning salmon are returning via this channel in the summer—and salmon smolt are migrating to the ocean through this channel in the spring.
Now that tidal flow is restored across the causeway, we could very well see improved growth of native eelgrass in the lagoon. This is great news for salmon because beds of eelgrass serve as nurseries for young fish. By installing an 18-foot-wide fish-friendly culvert, we have not only restored another salmon migration route for the lagoon—we've restored the flow that can bring habitat back to its full potential. We expect to see results within five to six years, and we will be monitoring for changes during this time.
The Klawock River system supports pink, chum, coho, and sockeye salmon, as well as steelhead, cutthroat trout, and Dolly Varden char. All of these contribute to sport, commercial, and subsistence fisheries, but they have been decreasing in abundance.
The Klawock River is a major salmon-producing system on Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaska. Most of the island's 2,577 square miles lie within the Tongass National Forest. The Tongass is part of the largest remaining coastal temperate rainforest remaining on Earth.

We're now settling into the midlife of the current console generation. Each generation seems to go slightly longer than the last as hz increase exponentially. Interactive gameplay has been the name of the game for the tail end of the last decade. Sony and microsoft were left far behind in the sales race compared to Nintendo's wii.
To make up for this both companies intend to keep their current consoles on the market for an optimistic ten years. Which leaves much unsaid for overlap of the next console, which as the ps2 has shown us can be quite considerable, or as with the original xbox quite short.
I expect we'll see all three companies expand heavily on the area's they have recently been heading. Nintendo will most likely announce a new console the soonest. They have the most money to put into development, and also their console is the least powerful being left behind as people upgrade their televisions slowly but surely. While they could easily ride out game sales on the wii for a number of years the smart move would be to try and ride the hype of it at the end. If they announced or released in a year and a half or so with a reasonably priced console as powerful as their present competition they would be in a good spot for close to a decade. They would of course have to top the standard motion gimick. I have no speculation except hearsay and options they may have as to what they may do. I doubt it will be based on the technology they presently use, but will be motion based in someway. Or possibly something outlandish like reading your mind.
Microsoft will likely announce a decent amount of time after nintendo, as kinect is supposed to be seen as a new console. We probably won't see anything from them for three or more years. What will be interesting is the next version of their console, I expect an integrated evolved version of the kinects motion parts. A refined high fps hd depth sensing camera, probably with other abilities, maybe a completely redesigned controller to work along with it. The intervening years will see the motion interface concept they presently dabble in come to fruition. It'll be what everybody imagined when they first heard of Natal.
Lastly Sony can be expected to lean heavily on the longevity of their consoles and continue optimization of the playstation platform. In four or quite possibly five years sony will again declare that the next generation starts when they say so. Sony has been quite public about what options their considering. Obviously they are into 3D, accelerometers, cameras, compass', gyroscopes, and enhanced reality. They also file a great many strange patents, and show off futuristic tech demo's at events. Magnetic sensors, sonar, ps3's playing hologram pong, multiple consoles running as one and more. Theirs really no telling what they'll put into their next machine, likely many if not all of the options they have available. A great many processors, whatever the competition has, plus whatever they were already working on before they noticed the other guy s had something cool and assimilated it into the playstation collective.
It looks like the next years of gaming will be mature ones, both technology and creativity wise. As a medium for hardware, software, and games designers, it looks like a bright and golden age for gaming. I look forward to better story telling, better game play, better communities, and plenty of surprises all around.

I've combed the thread, and didn't see where anyone said this? :confused: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1) Though I do highly recommend running, I do not advise watching The Mindy Project while running high speed on the treadmill (okay so it was more like a fast jog, but whatever...). You WILL wobble, trip, and almost face plant it. You have been warned. Any Mindy fans out there? HOLLA!
2) When my three year old goes three months without a hair cut, he looks like Macgyver. I love Macgyver.
3) Also, my three year old is potty training disabled (or to be PC, differently abled). He will poo on himself any time any place and not care. What the heck? That's gross man.
4) On a positive note, I've made some headway on the potty training front. Forget the m&m's, forget the stickers. Don't bribe with fluffy craft balls or toys. Get some matches. Yup, you heard me... matches. My son will do anything to light a match (except poo, when a match would actually be useful). Don't you judge me! I keep the matches out of his reach and he will make a great boy scout some day. Either that or an arsonist, but I choose to see the glass half full.
5) The pokemon cartoon is an abomination. My eight year old recently discovered this cartoon and it makes me want to slit my throat. I literally wear ear plugs when it's on.
6) I have a picture of Jesus hanging by my front door. I swear on my life his expression changes based on my decisions. If I'm being super negative, he looks a little frowny faced, but has a gentle smile when I refrain from hollering at my children. No I'm not crazy! Haven't you heard people say that the eyes of a portrait seem to follow you?! Same thing...almost.
7) Having friends that can do your hair to perfection, in their home, is so amazing. Beautification + girl time + built in play date for kids + half the price = Fantastic!
8) (Here's a whiny one) I found out this week that my husband is required to be at school (can't even go outside the building on the property) 60 hours a week. Let's break that down...that's 10 hours a day, six days a week. AND he has a study group four days a week for two and a half hours. So the kids and I see him for an hour every day. I feel bad for him, bad for me, and bad for the kids. Mostly bad for him though. It's like being in solitary confinement. Med school is no joke!!
On that note...
9) It's super awesome when zoos, museums, parks, etc. have single parent passes. I use single parent passes due to being a med school widow (Totally not the same as being a legit single parent...shout out to you!). Thank you to these establishments. You make my heart a little lighter and my wallet a bit heavier.
10) And then I go to Target and use the money I saved on my zoo pass, on clearance items. Seriously, 20% of my happiness comes from Target clearance. I'm basically on the same addiction tier as a crack head.
11) I am also a diet soda addict. Mucho awful! I spend a big chunk of my time worrying that I am giving myself cancer and another good chunk of my day justifying consuming this poison. You can justify just about anything people. STOP IT! We must stop it!
12) In conjunction with the above, this week I've been pondering what percentage of my thoughts are really about things that matter. You know salt of the earth things. Family, love, service, friends, positive changes and so on. Try pondering what the percentage of your thoughts are devoted to. It will scare you and blow your mind. Okay, maybe you should just live in ignorance. Don't think too hard.
13) I had a Cray delish sandwich at a local restaurant twice this week. It's called the Mona Lisa: Turkey, havarti cheese (Um yeah, I have no clue what that is either), artichoke hearts, baby spinach, tomato pesto mayo, and tomatoes toasted on a multi grain bread. Stop what you are doing and RECREATE IT! Seriously...go.
14) I have a new psychiatrist and she's amazing! Seriously genius. I'm kind of in a guinea pig stage. Doc is switching up my medications to help me with my super Lame-o sleep issues (and so much more) and I finally have some hope that these changes will actually work (more to come on this topic).
I can no longer do a cartwheel, but I can do a headstand; I'm pretty good with an electric hedge trimmer; I highlight way to many paragraphs in self help books; Pirate's Booty brand snacks are delish; I feel like I need to meditate and do yoga asap; Today I saw a robotic lawn mower called robomow that mows your lawn by itself. Kind of like a roomba. Craziness. I was enthralled.
Lastly and most importantly, I found out that Krispy Kreme has a hot light app, letting you know whenever you can go get a free warm doughnut. Say what?!
A week holds so much;).

Election activist Marilyn Marks has filed a complaint against the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder's Office, saying she was improperly denied the ability to watch mail-in ballots being stuffed into envelopes and processed in an Aurora facility earlier this month.
Aspen resident Marks, who filed the complaint with the county Election Commission on Oct. 6 along with two other individuals who live outside Pitkin County, said the clerk's office delayed certifying them as poll watchers in order to stymie their efforts to visit Integrated Voting Solutions (IVS), an Aurora vendor that Pitkin and many other counties use for mail-in ballot processing. Their requests for an official visit were eventually denied outright.
Marks, in a seven-page complaint, says observation of mail-in ballot processing is necessary because fraud or other irregularities could take place at the processing center. For example, multiple ballots could be stuffed into one envelope, some voters could be sent the wrong ballot or someone who is no longer eligible could be sent a ballot, Marks' complaint says.
"Live ballots are almost like currency and must be properly secured and distributed strictly in accordance with the law and instructions," the complaint says. "Numerous opportunities exist for errors, irregularities, theft, and even partisan-driven fraudulent activity. ... While there is no reason to suspect the Pitkin vendor, there is also no reason to exempt their work from oversight and correction of discrepancies."
Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder Janice Vos Caudill said she is resistant to Marks' request because "the law doesn't provide for such activity" and there has never been a problem with IVS, which the county has worked with since 2007.
"If the petitioners believe that the definition of what a watcher has authority to observe should be changed or clarified, perhaps legislative or rule making would be a more appropriate course of action rather than a challenge to an administrative process," Vos Caudill wrote in a response to Marks' complaint, which she provided to the Election Commission.
Political parties regularly appoint poll watchers to observe the election process. Marks points to a statute that says watchers can "witness and verify each step in the conduct of the election." Vos Caudill said the mail-in ballot processing is part of the pre-election process and not an established part of poll watchers' oversight duties.
Marks filed her complaint after IVS processed Pitkin County's ballots, so that ship has sailed. However, the county's Election Commission is looking at the matter to provide guidance for the future, said Election Commission member Brooke Peterson.
The board met on Friday, and heard a presentation from both Marks and Vos Caudill. The discussion was continued until Nov. 29 so Marks could get in writing what she said was direction she received from the Colorado Secretary of State's Office that would allow her to watch the envelope stuffing.
Marks, who was the runner up in the 2009 Aspen mayoral election, is best known locally for suing the city after it denied her request to review computer scans of ballots cast in that election. The case, which ended in a favorable ruling for Marks from the Colorado Court of Appeals, set off a debate about voter secrecy and the rights of citizens to independently review election results.
Marks has taken her election transparency case to numerous other counties throughout the state.

- Abaco Islands, Bahamas
Coopers Town is a city in Abaco, the third largest island of the Bahamas. The town is the northernmost of the island's main centres of population. It was settled in the 1870s by the Cooper family from Grand Bahama. Early industry included pineapple and sea-sponge harvesting, but both industries have dwindled over the last century. A major impediment to the success of these industries was the lack of a natural harbour at Coopers Town. Prominent residents of Coopers Town have included current Bahamian Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham.
