Ask Mac Questions and Get Answers from Experts ASAP
All the photos I imported with iPhoto from my Nikon P6000 are now missing in iPhoto. iPhone pics still there.
When I try to import from p6000 again, it won't work because iPhoto thinks it already has the pics. Can't find them anywhere though.
Have also restarted iPhoto and rebooted mac.
Macbook pro 17". OSX 10.8.4
Hi, Try rebuilding the iphoto library. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638
Will try
OK, I'll check in again in the morning (it's 11:35pm here)
Daniel, still having the same issue. Can't find the photos, but it seems they are there somewhere because it warns me of duplicates if I try to load them again. No problem with the photos that are still on the camera, but those that got taken off the camera are unrecoverable so far in iPhoto. These are very important photos we took on our Mediterranian cruise
Hello Sir. Thank you very much for giving us an opportunity to help you. I am Jins here to assist you. Please remember these things when we deal with your issue. It may take more than one step/answer to solve a problem. So If my answers don't work or if you are not satisfied, please don't Rate my answer as Bad or Poor Service, but please Reply back to me by clicking the "Continue Conversation" or "Reply" button and I will gladly continue to help. Remember, only Rate answer after you are 100% Satisfied. Please do not rate an answer, if you are not satisfied.
In this first series of steps, you can skip to Part II, below, as soon as you successfully locate the file.
To keep this from happening again, avoid renaming, moving, or deleting items in the iPhoto Library folder.
Jins, it looks like this fix doesn't apply to my actual situation. I do not see thumbnails for the pics I'm missing. I'm missing several hundred pics (and their thumbnails) from an upload from my Nikon P6000; all of the pics from that upload are missing. They were there immediately after uploading them, existing in the "Last Import" folder. However, I think they disappeared when I uploaded more pics from my iPhone. I would have expected them to be in the "Last 12 months" folder at that time, but no. I had the same thing happen with the next batch of pics from the P6000. Those are still on the camera, however. When I try to upload them again, I get a notice that they are duplicate pics. Even though iPhoto tells me they're duplicate, they don't exist in any of the folders.
Not to complicate the matter, but many of the most recent pics in the "Last 12 Months" folder do not appear in "Event" or "Photos" folders.
Hope that isn't too confusing.
thanks, rex
It is selected.
And has been selected all along.
This is iPhoto 09 version 8.1.2 (424)
Jin, I've already done that as per request from Daniel. No success; same mix of pics.
I don't see anything in the finder that starts with HD. If this is in a shell environment, I'm not up on that. Is there a shell app that I should be using for this?
In /Macintosh HD/Library/Caches, there's no com.apple.iPhoto file.
Following the path /Macintosh HD/users/rexsmith/... there's no library folder.
Same story with preferences folder. File not there.
Out of time today. I will have to resume tomorrow morning. I'll let you know tomorrow as soon as I try this.
If you reply one more time, I'll be able to see the thread again. Sometime, the web page doesn't let me see the thread after I reply.
OK, i did go through process of deleting the folder and the file. Same result. The pics that are lost are no longer on the camera. That's my big issue.
BTW, the photos and events folders still didn't update with the latest photos in the last 12 months folder.
I'll be back online tomorrow.
Well, I thought we had it. The photos do exist in the library as evidenced by the search. I ran the library rebuild and was encouraged because as I was watching the progress of it, I could see the lost photos being imported. After that completed, I opened iPhoto using the rebuilt file with same results as before. Pics not viewable and Photo and Event folders not populated with latest info. I think we're getting there though.
Jin, all is well. After I sent you the last response, it occurred to me that the dates on the pics I found with the find application were 2012 instead of 2013. Then a lightbulb went off. Checked the camera and sure enough, the date in the camera was set a year too early. Checked back a year in iphoto and the pics were there. I changed the event dates and now all the pics are showing up in the right place.
User error for sure, but your guidance led me to the epiphany. Excellent service from you. I was going to tell you before this, but the web page wouldn't let me say anymore until you replied. I think something needs to be done about that.
In fact, I think you're going to have to reply to this before I'll be able to give you a most excellent rating.
thanks much!
. Remember us, when you need any assistance again. Your business is very valuable for us. You can ask a question directly to me by going to http://www.justanswer.com/computer/expert-jinsmn/ Now let me file this question as closed. Regards Jins

Jack Garratt Plays Literally Everything On Stage & Here's How He Does It...
Watch Jack breaking down his live set up as we go 'Between The Beats' for MTV PUSH...
If you've been lucky enough to ever see BRITs Critic's Choice winner Jack Garratt performing live, you'll know that you witnessed some incredible musical wizardry at work.
Playing the keys, guitar, drum pads and more, it's awe-inspiring to watch him in his element on stage but just HOW does he do it all?
As our MTV PUSH artist for February we find out in our first exclusive interview piece: 'Between The Beats'.
"The most important thing for me is to have as much control over what's going on in front of me as I possibly can," the 'Breathe Life' producer revealed, "so because of that I don't play to a click track and I don't have anything on the grid. Everything is triggered by me, everything is played by me, everything is within my control.
"It's just means that I can be in time with myself and if anything goes wrong I know I can fix it myself, and stuff like that so the best way I've found for me to be able to do that, especially in a live situation, is to kinda just play everything!
"More specifically speaking giving myself the ability to loop stuff when I need to and having things that are taken from my recordings and then being able to trigger those certain moments when I can but always at the same time making sure I'm doing it myself, playing in time with myself and performing as best as I can."
"The whole thing with me, when it came to writing the song, when it came to performing the song, again it was just about making sure that I had the freedom and the space to be able to think and breathe in the way that I needed to.
"That kind of came hand-in-hand with then just taking over most of the control of it but I promise I'm not a control freak! I do it because it's fun and I've only ever known to do it this way. It's kind of difficult for me to do it any other way."
We're pushing Jack Garratt all month long. Keep checking mtv.co.uk/push each week for brand new exclusive pieces with Jack and help us spread the love with #PUSHJackGarratt.

Remember to Stop Being Afraid with Humility
Welcome to a series on How to Stop Being Afraid with wisdom from Psalm 46. Our quest continues to step two in the journey to learn How to Stop Being Afraid. We began by exploring the call in Psalm 46:1 to remember who God is and what that means. He is both our defense and our offense. We get grounded on Him in the face of life's chaos and overwhelming storms that the psalmist so vividly describes: Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried … [Read more...]

The following moving expense reimbursement may be offered to new faculty and full-time exempt administrative staff, provided they are relocating from outside of Knox County, Ohio.
The greater of $750 or $1.25 per mile moved, not to exceed $2,500. The College will pay the expense reimbursement when the employee relocates to his/her new home.
1. On occasion the College may recruit and hire two persons from the same family. In this circumstance only one moving expense reimbursement is permitted.
2. The IRS requires that all moving expense payments be reported on the employee's W-2 Form unless paid to a third party. Qualified moving expenses will be reported separately from gross income. Non-Qualified moving expenses will be included as taxable income on the W-2 Form. However, some of these expenses may be deductible when filing a federal tax return (complete Form 3903, Moving Expenses).
3. The College is required to provide the employee with an itemized list of moving expense reimbursements or payments. The College is required to withhold all appropriate payroll taxes, including FICA, on those amounts which the College believes will not be deductible. To comply with these requirements the employee must submit a record, including receipts, of all moving expenses to the Accounting Office. The employee should also keep a set of the records as documentation for his/her federal tax return.

Ingraham on 'This Week' Slams Charlie Gibson's ACORN Ignorance
Conservative talk radio host Laura Ingraham on Sunday ridiculed ABC's Charles Gibson for his ignorance concerning last month's ACORN controversy.
As NewsBuster Tom Blumer reported September 15, when Gibson was asked that morning by a Chicago radio host about the Senate's decision to cut ACORN's funding over the organization's growing scandal, the ABC "World News" anchor didn't have a clue.
With this in mind, as the Roundtable discussion on Sunday's "This Week" turned to recent White House attacks on FNC, Ingraham used the Gibson incident as an example of how "of all the networks, Fox was going to hold the administration the most accountable...That's why they don't like Fox News" (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript):
LAURA INGRAHAM, TALK RADIO HOST: Can I speak as the Fox representative on this show? By the way, you're all going to be banned from any future White House events for having me at this table. Bill Schein said that, and I know him well, he said that because he believes that of all the networks, Fox was going to hold the administration the most accountable. And the last time I checked, I thought that was the role of the press. I think, and again, I might not be invited back, George, but when Charlie Gibson didn't know what the ACORN story was all about, that was a collective gasp you heard across the United States. Charlie Gibson is an esteemed journalist. How do you not know about a story about a, about a group where President Obama cut his political teeth that had been exposed to the extent that Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill were ready to pull the rug out from under them and their funding? That's the kind of story that the White House doesn't want to have reported and repeated on other networks. That's why they don't like Fox News. [...]
I think a lot of people say if the Administration had the same view of, of, of the way to treat other threats to the United States, whether economic threats or real threats, Islamic jihadists, and don't probably put Fox in that same category, then it would be okay. I mean, they're so impassioned about Fox, meanwhile, it's kind of like very even rhetoric about other threats...I just think honestly the passion, the passion when you send out Emanuel and Axelrod and the President comments on it, I haven't seen them talk about other real threats in the same coordinated and sophisticated way as they're going after Fox. I mean, honestly, it looks defensive...We want him to treat the terrorists like that.
Earlier in the segment, George Will offered his views on the White House attacks on Fox:
Look, no president in the history of this republic has less reason to complain about mistreatment in the press than Barack Obama. Liberals have academia, they have mainstream media, they have Hollywood. They're all for diversity in everything but thought. And out here is this, this one channel, Fox, and they're all up in arms because, in the words of Miss Dunn of the White House, "It is opinion journalism masquerading as news" which some of us would say describes the New York Times and certainly MSNBC.
Yes, some of us would say that, George.

Support is growing nationwide to have the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Article 9 of the Constitution, which bars Japan from waging war.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee accepted the nomination in April, although its secretive decision-making process is not known to be swayed by public campaigns.
The nomination was made by a Japanese lobbying group that calls itself the Executive Committee for "The Nobel Peace Prize for Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution."
Debate is raging across the nation over whether the government should reinterpret Article 9 — instead of formally amending it — to lift the ban on exercising the U.N. right to collective self-defense.
By June 8, the group had gathered more than 80,000 signatures through the Internet and from people on the street. The group had amassed 24,887 signatures by August last year, when it sent its letter of nomination to the Nobel committee.
Since the prize honors only individuals or organizations, the group nominated the Japanese people as a whole for having kept the article intact for so long.
The idea for the campaign sprang from Naomi Takasu, a 37-year-old housewife from Zama, Kanagawa Prefecture, who had been wondering what she could do to "shine a light on the preciousness of Article 9," which renounces war as a means of settling international disputes.
Takasu had met refugees from nations like Afghanistan while studying in Australia following her graduation from high school in Japan. The experiences brought home to her the misery of war, she said.
She was joined by like-minded people, including housewives and kindergarten teachers in Zama and neighboring Sagamihara, both of which are home to U.S. military bases. They established the committee in August last year.
One of the co-leaders is Tsuneo Hoshino, 80, who is the president of a nursery. He was in sixth grade in elementary school when World War II ended in 1945.
Like many children in Japan at that time, Hoshino had spent the war years believing "my only purpose in life was to die for my country," he recalled.
But he was so shocked by the devastation he found in Tokyo when returning from his evacuation to the countryside that he came to see a simple truth: "How inhuman it is to destroy lives."
Hoshino said he now hates war from the bottom of his heart.
The nomination "is just the first step," he said, noting that he is still collecting signatures ahead of this year's Nobel Peace Prize announcement in October.
"If we fail this year, we will keep submitting nomination letters again and again until we win the prize," Hoshino said. "If we continue, we can put pressure on the people who are trying to change Article 9. Collected signatures represent the hope for peace by the Japanese people."
In a written message, one young signatory expressed the hope that an increase in activities to protect Article 9 will help block attempts to enable Japan to exercise its collective self-defense right.
"Japan is in a dangerous situation," Hoshino said. "We hope to stem moves toward the use of force by highlighting the spirit of Article 9 to the entire international community through a Nobel Peace Prize."

A Lower Sackville man is facing sex-related charges involving a young person.
Clinton Giffin, 59, is charged with two counts of sexual assault and two counts of touching a young person he was in a position of trust or authority toward for a sexual purpose.
Giffin was not present in Kentville provincial court on July 23. Having earlier filed a designation of counsel, he was represented by attorney Stanley MacDonald of Halifax. The court appearance was originally scheduled for Windsor.
Reading of the charges and election address were waived. Judge John MacDougall adjourned the matter to Sept. 16 for election and plea.
The charges stem from incidents alleged to have occurred in South Uniacke between June 28 and July 28, 2011 and in Mount Uniacke on Dec. 1, 2011.

The FDA and other regulatory agencies have specific requirements regarding fonts used in drug applications. Notably, fonts need to be embedded for compliance
Ensuring that fonts are embedded properly is not particularly difficult if documents are in your control. See my blog article on PDF Settings for some tips.
In a perfect world, all parties which contribute to a regulatory filing would properly embed fonts. Unfortunately, we don't live in a perfect world . . . there are times when you may need to embed fonts as a post process.
Fortunately, a new feature of Acrobat 9 Pro (and Pro Extended) is the ability to reembed fonts.
Before we get into how to do that, you need to know if the fonts are there or not.
Are the fonts embedded?
To check if fonts are embedded:
- Choose File—> Properties
- Click on the Fonts tab
Examine the information in the window. If all font entries say "embedded" or "embedded subset" no changes are necessary:
However, if you see an entry like the one below, you have a problem. In the case below, ArialMT is used in the document, but is not embedded.
In the remainder of this article, I'll discuss how to reembed fonts and also provide background on the term "subset" relative to regulatory guidance.
Reembedding Fonts using Preflight in Acrobat 9
To reembed fonts in a PDF:
- Choose Advanced—> Preflight
- Expand the PDF fixups section
- Choose the Embed Fonts fixup
- Click Analyze and fix
|Note: In order to reembed fonts, you must have the font available on your system. Not all fonts may be embedded. Some fonts have a "do not embed" flag which is a copyright restriction from the vendor of the font.
Font Substitution, Embedding and Subsetting
Font substitution in PDF will occur when the computer does not have access to the original font. If the original font is not present, an Adobe Multiple Master typeface is temporarily substituted for missing fonts— AdobeSerifMM for a serif fonts, and AdobeSansMM for sans serif fonts.
Documents submitted to technical review by the agency may contain formulas and other scientific characters. To prevent the possibility of a character being incorrectly substituted, documents must have fonts embedded.
Modern font sets often contain thousands of characters. Completely embedding a font greatly increases the file size of the resulting PDF. The solution is font subsetting. Subsetting only embeds the characters that are necessary to render the page. Visually, a document with subset fonts and completely embedded fonts looks and prints identically.
There is no technical advantage to completely embedding fonts. There is nothing you can do with a PDF that has its fonts completely embedded that you cannot do with a subset file.
In Acrobat 5 and earlier, combining subset files could sometimes lead to ballooning of file size. That's not an issue today. Besides, the agency uses Acrobat 7 (or later I have heard in some cases) to review documents.
It has always been a mystery to us at Adobe as to why the agency requires completely embedding fonts in M2 eCTD: Electronic, Common Technical Document. Specification:
Agencies cannot guarantee the availability of any fonts except Times New Roman, Arial, and Courier and fonts supported in the Acrobat product set itself. Therefore, all additional fonts used in the PDF files should be embedded to ensure that those fonts would always be available to the reviewer. When embedding fonts, all characters for the font should be embedded, not just a subset of the fonts being used in the document
Only older Type 1 and TrueType fonts can be completely embedded by Acrobat. By the time the agency produced the guidance, the "writing was already on the wall" for the deprecation of Type 1 and TrueType fonts.
Adobe and Microsoft had jointly announced the OpenType format in the year 1996. OpenType is an interoperable superset/combination of Type 1 and TrueType fonts. Modern OSs such as Windows XP, Vista and Mac OSX ship with OpenType fonts. Adobe hasn't sold Type 1 fonts in a number of years.
OpenType fonts are superior in a number of ways to older font technology:
- Cross-platform format
- Support multiple languages
- Advanced typographic features and functions
- Can contain up to 65,000 characters
Except for a few rare cases, Acrobat can only subset OpenType fonts.
So, where does that leave us? To my knowledge, the agency hasn't rejected a filing with fonts that are subset. The M2 eCTD: Electronic, Common Technical Document. Specification document specifically allows subsetting of the large Asian font sets.
I am concerned that the agency does not insist that Times New Roman, Arial and Courier be embedded. While these fonts are commonly available on all systems, many versions of these fonts have been distributed over the years. While the differences are often subtle, I would be concerned that the character spacing could differ slightly.
My recommendation is that all fonts used in regulatory filings are embedded and subset.

Berlin For a Night Through Indonesian Eyeswritten by panjihardjakaprabon on 2010-10-19 #places
The first impression when i arrived in Berlin was "WOW what a great great train station", there's nothing like this in my home country. It's quite different than the 2 cities before I got to Berlin (Erfurt and Frankfurt), maybe because all of the skyscrapers in downtown. This is the third city in my summer school trip around Europe, in Deutchland or we can called it Germany.8 29 Share Tweet
Kölner Domwritten by stinketier on 2008-11-23 #places
Cologne without the Kölner Dom? That's unthinkable. The official name is "Hohe Domkirche St. Peter and Maria" but who cares, it's the Kölner Dom. The Dom is 157,38m, the third highest church on earth. The cathedral is only 250 meters away from the Rhein. The architectural style is Gothic. From 1880 to 1884 the Kölner Dom was the highest building in the world and it's the most popular sight in Germany. Since 1996 the cathedral is a world cultural heritage.1 3 Share Tweet

The coast of Anticosti is cheerless, and it is possible even to tire of sun and water.
The passage from St. Paul to Anticosti is at times dangerous.
But Black Tarboe himself was down at Anticosti, waiting for a certain merchantman.
Anticosti, an island of Canada, in the mouth of the St. Lawrence, 125 miles long by 30 miles broad.
The species is found in Newfoundland, Labrador, Anticosti, and westward and northward.
One of the ships was wrecked on the island of Anticosti, and William Longfellow, 299 with nine of his comrades, was drowned.
By a singular want of judgment, moreover, he chose to follow the channel north of the Island of Anticosti.
That district all the way down to the west end of the island of Anticosti was known as the "King's Domains."
Anticosti was sighted by Jacques Cartier in 1534, and named Assomption.
Anticosti, a barren rocky island in the estuary of St Lawrence, frequented by fishermen, and with hardly a permanent inhabitant.

Originally written on Pro Boxing Fans | Last updated 9/10/14
Ardmore, Oklahoma, power puncher Eric "Danger" Fields (21-1, 15 KOs) is hoping he'll be underestimated when he brings his heavy fists to Germany on February 2, 2013, to face IBF Cruiserweight Champion Yoan Pablo Hernandez (27-1, 13 KOs) at Max-Schmeling-Halle in Berlin. "This is his third defense and he's had some big wins and he's a southpaw, so I bet he's feeling real confident fighting a guy in the top 15. Well, guess what? He's in danger and he won't know it till it's too late. I'm taking the title from him and bringing it back to America." Fields' promoter, Greg Cohen of Greg Cohen Promotions, has been looking like a boxing genius of late, after maneuvering WBA world junior middleweight champion Austin Trout from relative obscurity to boxing's newest star. Cohen says Fields has exactly the kind of power that has bothered the German-based Cuban Hernandez throughout his career. "His (Hernandez's) only official loss came by KO to big punching Wayne Braithwaite. In his...

Washington (AFP) April 18, 2014
US geologists said Thursday they have uncovered a preglacial tundra landscape preserved for 2.7 million years far below the Greenland ice sheet.
Glaciers are known to scrape everything off any given plot of land -- vegetation, soil and even the top layer of bedrock -- so scientists expressed great surprise that they had found the landscape in pristine condition below two miles (three kilometers) of ice.
The finding provides strong evidence that the ice sheet has existed for much longer than previously known, and survived numerous global warming episodes, according to the lead researcher, University of Vermont geologist Paul Bierman.
Rather than scraping and sculpting the landscape, the ice sheet has been frozen to the ground, effectively creating "a refrigerator that's preserved this antique landscape," Bierman said.
The finding suggests that even during the warmest periods of the ice sheet's life, the center of Greenland was stable and did not fully melt, allowing the tundra landscape to be sealed without modification through millions of years of changing temperatures.
"Greenland really was green! However, it was millions of years ago," said Dylan Rood, a former Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientist.
"Greenland looked like the green Alaskan tundra, before it was covered by the second largest body of ice on Earth."
For the study published in the journal Science, experts tested 17 samples extracted from the ice sheet in 1993 from Summit, Greenland.
They then sampled a rare form of the element beryllium, the beryllium-10 isotope formed by cosmic rays.
The research, backed by National Science Foundation funding, found that the soil had been stable and exposed at the surface between 200,000 and a million years before the ice covered it.
The team of scientists also measured nitrogen and carbon that could have been left by plant material in the core sample, and found organic material that suggested that the preglacial landscape may have been a partially forested tundra.

Managing Strategic Buyers
We consider the problem of a monopolist who must sell her inventory before some deadline, facing n buyers with independent private values. The monopolist posts prices but has no commitment power. The seller faces a basic trade-off between imperfect price discrimination and maintaining an effective reserve price. When there is only one unit and only a few buyers, the seller essentially posts unacceptable prices up to the very end, at which point prices collapse in a series of jumps to a "reserve price" that exceeds marginal cost. When there are many buyers, the seller abandons this reserve price in order to more effectively screen buyers. Her optimal policy then replicates a Dutch auction, with prices decreasing continuously over time.

MN Hunters Concerned over Hunting Limits in New Trespass Law

When someone falls ill in a public place, the wishful cry of help would traditionally be 'Is there a doctor in the house?!'
But when the co-pilot of a Boeing 747 was struck down with a severe migraine mid-air on Monday, the crew held out no hope there might be a 'pilot on the plane'.
Fortunately, their prayers were answered as one of the passengers, who works for North American Airlines, got up to reveal he was fully qualified to fly a jumbo jet.

Korea Will Launch Cap-And-Trade in 2015
Last week the South Korean National Assembly passed legislation to start a cap-and-trade system by 2015. The vote was passed unanimously by both Korea's ruling party and opposition, 148-0, with three members abstaining. The plan is part of President Lee Myung Bak's aggressive agenda to fight climate change while transforming Korea into a green technology powerhouse. By most accounts Korea ranks among the top 10 countries in the total amount of carbon emissions. Korea's rise from one of the the poorest nations on earth in the 1960s to its current status as a G-20 heavyweight relied on developing an economy heavily export-driven. But the country's strength in steelmaking, shipbuilding, automobile manufacturing and petrochemicals has come with an environmental cost. The past 10 years has witnessed a nudge in Korea away from an emphasis on heavy industry and development to an economy that is leaner, greener and more reliant on cutting edge and disruptive technologies. Nevertheless manufacturing still reigns in Korea and will do so for a long time. As the country grew at an even more rapid pace during the 1990s, greenhouse gas emissions soared from 350 million tons in 1990 to 640 million tons last year. Among the 34 countries within the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Korea has had the most rapid percentage increase in greenhouse gas emissions. To reduce the country's forecast 2020 greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent, Korea's government has decided that the carbon emissions trading system was one way to tackle the problem. Korea has already implemented a feed-in tariff to encourage the development of more clean energy sources. But now the country's 14 power generators and companies that emit more than 25,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually will have to purchase credits for their CO2 emissions. Companies that exceed those CO2 limits limits would incur penalties that could rise as much as triple the cost of the initial purchase of emissions credits. To ease into the system, the emission permits at first will be free or at a reduced price for three to six years, depending on the industry. Another goal, besides decreasing greenhouse gas emissions in Korea, is to increase the amount of Korea's renewable energy generation to 10 percent of the country's energy portfolio by the end of the decade. Business lobbies in Korea, including the Federation of Korean Industries and the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, have objected to the carbon emissions plan, complaining that the cap-and-trade program will increase business costs and make Korean industry less competitive than other countries. But that reaction discounts the incredible resilience and innovation that set Korean companies apart from the competition. Despite wedged between the world's largest manufacturer, China, and one of the most competitive economies, Japan, Korea still thrives and its companies lead in many sectors from massive construction projects to mobile telephones. With China and Australia on target to launch cap and trade systems, Korea is on target to lead in yet another emerging industry. Published earlier today on Triple Pundit.

THE All Saints Never Ever thought their comeback would end like this.
But we can exclusively reveal that the all-girl group has finally been axed by their record label.
Last night an EMI spokesperson said that Parlophone Records and All Saints had made the mutual decision to part company.
"Both the label and the group are proud of the album Studio 1. All Saints are excited about moving forwards with their career and Parlophone wishes them the best of luck".
Despite the upbeat tone of the statement the girls were said to be "devastated" by the news they'd been dumped.
What finally spelled the end for the band yesterday was the dismal performance of their latest single Chick Fit.
Lead singer Shaznay boasted of their new album: "We think this record is the best thing we've ever done... We all see this as a long-term thing."
But when the second single was released - on download only - last week it embarrassingly failed to make so much as a dent in the Top 200.
We broke the news last month that EMI was having serious doubts about the girls' future.
So deep were concerns that promotion was scaled back dramatically.
Our record label insider tells us: "It got to the point where things couldn't go on any further and we had to admit it was over.
"There have been non-stop meetings about how best to break the news to their remaining fans."
The decision could spell the end the of the girls' musical career which started so promisingly when Shaznay, Mel Blatt and Natalie and Nicole Appleton first burst on to the scene in 1996.
After notching up eight top 10 hiphop-meets-pop hits, "Britain's bitchiest girl band" dealt a blow to their huge fan base when they split in 2001 amid reports of furious in-fighting.
But last November they reformed in a blaze of publicity and released the single Rock Steady which made the Top 10. However, things went decidedly downhill from there.
Not only did their album Studio 1 chart at a lowly number 40 but the band got beaten by a dustman. An offering from binman-turned-X Factor contestant Andy Abrahams significantly outsold the girls'.
However any suggestions that things were not going according to plan were met with bullish denials by the girls' PR even as late as last month.
He claimed that speculation over their future at the label was "b******t".
But in the last fortnight - since Chick Fit failed to be playlisted by any of the major radio stations - there have been fewer attempts to paper over the cracks.
The girls were also publicly humiliated when fans at GAY at London's Astoria held a one-minute silence in reaction to the band cancelling a gig just hours before they were due on stage.
EMI has been under pressure to cut costs following the disastrous performance of Robbie Williams' album Rudebox.
Its failure was said to have been a contributing factor in chairman Alain Levy, and his deputy David Munns, leaving the company.
With All Saints' future on the line, could it mean curtains for combats worn with vests.. sniff.

It's one of the hottest events of the year, and the 2016 iHeartRadio Music Festival just announced a star-studded lineup.
Slated to run from September 24th to September 25th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the massive gig will feature headliners like Britney Spears, Drake and Ariana Grande.
She's always had a knack for coming out on top, so it's not surprising that Britney Spears has the #1 single on iTunes once again.
On Thursday night (July 14) the "Baby One More Time" singer released "Make Me," the lead track from her forthcoming ninth studio album, and it quickly began the climb up the chart.
Gearing up for a huge release, Britney Spears just dropped a sneak peek clip for her forthcoming single and perfume "Private Show."
In the preview, the "Baby One More Time" songstress is drop-dead gorgeous in a skimpy black cut-out swimsuit as she writhes around in a backstage area before strutting out onto the main stage.
Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez and Selena Gomez are among the stars who have joined forces for a new charity single.
Following up her 2013 record Britney Jean, Britney Spears is gearing up for the release of her new batch of studio goodness.
The 34-year-old pop star, who posed with a bunch of hunky guys for her Instagram account on Friday (June 3), told E! News that she's taking things in a different direction this time around.
Las Vegas' T-Mobile Arena was overflowing with celebrities as the 2016 Billboard Music Awards got underway on Sunday evening (May 22).
She's been busting her buns with non-stop workouts for her Las Vegas residency, and Britney Spears is certainly proud of the results.
On Tuesday (May 3) the "Baby One More Time" songstress posted a selfie via social media while wearing a lime green monokini with a keyhold cut-out to reveal her ample cleavage.
Britney Spears is set to be honored with the Billboard Millennium Award.
According to USA Today, the pop star will be presented with the respected award at the upcoming Billboard Music Awards show being held later this month.

Another tough year is predicted for construction-exposed companies as consumer sentiment refuses to budge and activity slows to a standstill.
But there are indications building activity could start to show signs of life at the back end of 2013.
Housing and commercial construction slumped further into the red this year amid poor weather (developers can't lay concrete in the rain) and the postponement of some major projects due to softening commodity prices. Any short-term benefit from the federal government's Building the Education Revolution has been forgotten.
Meanwhile, Australians are delaying big financial commitments such as buying or building a house as the job market across a number of industries including manufacturing, media, construction and financial services, remains uncertain.
The HIA and Australian Industry Group Performance of Construction Index – which bundles housing, commercial, apartment and engineering building together to provide a broad reading on the state of the building market – is falling at its sharpest rate in the past year.
Australian Bureau of Statistics data that found a fifth consecutive decline in residential building work completed in the June quarter was steeper than initially thought and confirmed a 10-year low for new home building activity, the HIA said.
Engineering construction, which relates to mining and resources activity, has started to contract as major groups pull back on projects amid a fall in some commodity prices, notably iron ore, and rising capital costs.
"In my personal experience this is as bad as I've seen," Watpac chief executive Martin Monro said.
"We have all been waiting for some signs of improvement in all sectors of the construction industry ... there are ups and downs in all states but the overall picture is still sluggish."
Housing and office construction activity is critical, according to federal Treasury, which is hoping a pick-up in building activity will offset any slowdown in the resources sector.
The short-term picture, however, is bleak and does not bode well for listed building materials groups like
Civil contractors
There is nothing new about the rise and fall in building activity over time. What is most surprising is how long this trend has persisted given the steady local unemployment rate and that the Reserve Bank of Australia's cash rate has remained at or below the long-term average.
The HIA/AIG Performance of Construction Index has been contracting for 28 consecutive months.
A Master Builders national survey of more than 500 builders found recent RBA rate cuts had failed to lift activity and sentiment.
Broking research group RBS Morgans' latest survey of 40 of the top 100 home builders in Australia found no "demonstrable signs of improving activity". Approximately two-thirds of respondents said sales were "flat or down relative to six months ago with similar findings for traffic and inquiries".
"[The survey] failed to show the improvement we had anticipated at this point in the cycle," said RBS Morgans.
"This suggests another 12 months of difficult conditions, in our view."
In contrast, the New Zealand and United States housing markets are again starting to show sustained signs of life.
The RBA is expected to cut rates again before year end but the impact of those cuts will take time.
RBS Morgans has reviewed its national housing starts forecasts and now expects house building activity to decline by a further 2 per cent in the 2013 financial year followed by a "more gradual recovery than we had previously forecast".
This slower recovery forecast is shared by others in the industry.
"I don't think we'll get a V-shaped recovery. I think it will be a slow steady recovery, there is a lot of underlying demand still there," said CSR chief executive Rob Sindel.
He highlighted NSW where the new home owners grant is set to kick in from October, as a key example of where signs were more positive.
Meanwhile, some builders and material providers have been rethinking what an eventual recovery will look like.
Building materials provider
"One thing we're not quite recognising is the need for offices has declined because of the internet," Mr Chellew said.
"We shop online so we don't need as many physical shops. There's a structural change there which we're not fully factoring in."
Separately, consultant group Madison Cross has forecast that up to 10 per cent of all residential and commercial construction activity will be based on modular and flat- pack systems from China in 10 years. That has major ramifications for building material companies supplying traditional bricks and mortar.

Best Of :: Sports & Recreation
Heading to this loud, packed Newport hangout is a classic way to achieve one last buzz to cap off your weekend. If you can, get there early in the morning for a breakfast burrito or a heaping portion of huevos rancheros, or just come with the rowdy bar crowd in the afternoon for some shouting conversations and a schooner full of White Trashed Iced Tea (PBR with lemon juice and ice). Pro tip: Be sure to go up the stairs to your right when you first walk in, and snag a spot next to the open window looking out toward the boardwalk to get the full trifecta of booze, beach and babes.
It's not often you use the words bullets and Brea in the same sentence. But within this relatively sleepy suburb is the most bangin' firing range around. Orange County Indoor Shooting Range is a fully renovated and top-of-the-line establishment for all your firing needs, whether you're a beginner or Dirty Harry. Carrying a full stock of 62 types of gun rentals (ammo, too!), as well as various stages of training classes and group discounts (two people can shoot for two hours for just $50), this place is all about giving you more bang for your buck (you know we had to use that, right?).
Its mystique, ungodly smells and tiny Asian waitresses with boobs so inflated they should be falling into their drink trays make Hawaiian Gardens Casino special—in all the best ways. Also, there's pai gow poker, which yields greater odds of winning than traditional poker. Just keep an eye on your rearview mirror while driving home. Just sayin'.
Though it's not quite considered the boonies, this beloved patch of nature in the northern hills of Fullerton feels far away from the rush of cars, traffic and people—enough to plop down for lunch with the aid of a blanket. As the sun shines onto the shimmering lake, watch as wildlife chirps, scampers and swims all around you as you chomp down on some sandwiches and potato salad. Just don't feed the ducks; they'll never leave you alone.
This is about as close as you can get to the way surfing started—and in a less bro-tastic world—in OC. Located in a parking lot just to the north of the Seal Beach pier, M&M Surfing School isn't much more than a trailer parked in front of the sand, with boards on the side and a heap of wetsuits in all sizes. Run by Michael Pless and his son, Michael Jr., the school is licensed by the city and provides group and individual lessons for adults and kids. And the variety of breaks at the beach means that no matter what your skill level, there will be a wave with your name on it.
Get up early and devote a little more than an hour to walk from Hart Park to Grijalva Park. Round trip, it's 4.6 miles—the path is longer than that, but this is our favorite section—and you'll work up a sweat, get your daily exercise, and start your day amid the trail's peaceful, natural splendor. Well-maintained throughout the year, there are trees and greenery (when there's enough water), friendly squirrels and ducks (when there's enough water), and only a handful of joggers. During rainy season (when there's enough water), taking a walk before dusk with an umbrella, holding the hand of the one you love, the creek rushing beside you . . . there's little more romantic than this.

The Institute's new Nelson Cultural Center, designed by HGA Architects and Engineers (HGA), offers a stunning new destination for gatherings and brings a touch of modern design to a neighborhood in transition.
Headquartered in Minneapolis' historic Phillips West neighborhood, the American Swedish Institute (ASI) watched for decades as the area around it transformed from one of the city's most prestigious residential neighborhoods to one marked by economic inequality and an increasingly transient population. But while many organizations might have used that as an excuse to relocate, ASI saw it as an opportunity to put its community ideals into action.
The Institute's new Nelson Cultural Center, designed by HGA Architects and Engineers (HGA), offers a stunning new destination for gatherings and brings a touch of modern design to a neighborhood in transition.
The sleek and angular building embodies traditional Swedish values of craft, community and connection to nature, with HGA going as far as inviting Swedish artists and architects to critique its design. "Drawing inspiration from Swedish architecture and landscapes, and working with Swedish designers has been a tremendous aspect of this project," says E. Tim Carl, AIA, lead architect and vice president at HGA. "At the same time, we were excited to incorporate Swedish attitudes toward the environment and sustainable living into our design concepts to create a sense of place in the neighborhood."
Architectural details convey themes from both Swedish and local culture, including porcelain tiles and leather handrail wraps created by local craftsmen, a large-format trompe-l'oeil textile commissioned for the lobby, and a nautical-themed wood ceiling inspired by the timber roof in Stockholm City Hall. White walls, oak tongue-and-groove paneling and large expanses of glass further capture Swedes' romantic sensibility toward domestic life.
Sustainable additions like a vegetated roof and geothermal system make the building eligible for LEED Gold certification. Upon approval, it will become the first museum in Minnesota to reach that status—a powerful example of how design can act as a catalyst for community change.

Islam Karimov,
president of Uzbekistan, faced international criticism in May, after hundreds of antigovernment demonstrators in Andijan were killed in a military crackdown. The demonstration began after protesters stormed a prison and released about 2,000 prisoners to challenge what they saw as the rigged trial of 23 businessmen. The government claimed the men were Islamic terrorists; the protesters insisted they were antigovernment civic leaders.

New from Public Safety:
03/22/17: Robins returning can be a sign of spring, here at Public Safety we use a different standard:
Welcome Back to campus!
10/21/16: Changes to visitor parking in Residence Life.
All overnight visitors in Residance Life must park in the Studio Arts Parking Lot. This change has being made to alleviate congestion and make additional parking available for students who reside on campus.

About "3" by RicoMambo
Design by RicoMambo
300 brave Spartans fought against who knows how many enemy forces, i think about 100 000:))) or more.
But... believe me, it's NOTHING!!!
3 bravest anteater won without any trouble, and even ate a billion ants!!!!!
Even more.
Yes, there was more,
for sure.
top notch illustration work!
Way cool! It'd be neat to see some hordes of ants to really drive home the concept.
extremly weird!
nice pic
yes rico! one of the best ive seen of yours!
(5 for sure, sorry forgot to add that)
Bizarre and killer work!
This is some solid gold illustration, and the concept is really funny, but I wish you'd put some ants, because the pun on the easy win is not so obvious. But it looks rad as hell
Thanks, i think about bunch of ants, but this is a movie reference and i didn't want to complicated to much.
I like it the way it is:)
ahahahahah.... FEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha - sweet
hahaha! cool!!
hahahahaha! pa ovo je SIAINO (predobro za threadless čak)! divna ilustracija! i
That's a beautiful illustration, well done!
print it
$5 rad!
Super funny parody, and such a nice twist on the usual 300 SPARTAAAAAAAAAAA standbys that i really enjoy it. The only thing is the piece is missing half the concept you set up. I'd love to see most of the black negative space of the shirt be made of tiny ants, maybe a fireant here or there so the shirt looks like it's crawling and almost made up of a billion ants!
Beautiful work, as always, Rico! But I do have to agree that the ants are the grinniest part of the concept. Still a 4, from me! :D
I don't see the corrolation between the spartans and anteaters
I don't see the corrolation between the spartans and anteaters
Thanks guys, you are probably right about ants, maybe ill do rework one day:)
hahaha coooooool
too bad it isn't called "5".
ROFL this one's really funny. $$$$$55555!!!!!
Very cool!5$
Ants please, great job on the eaters!
Tonight we dine in...
the expression is awesome!! great design ricomambo!! :)
Quite random
Great illo though!
hahahaha :D
Great illustration. Not to be repetitive but I agree with ant issue. I would not see the pun without your text reference or any ant images.
Thank You!
wow! great art and design!
Thanks folks:)
I don't no about rework. Everything depends of the score.
Thank You very much:)
Whoa - I expected a higher score on this.
I really like this. Hopefully it gets on a shirt some day!

Whiskey Pancakes with Whiskey Maple Cream Sauce
Pancakes for breakfast? Amazing.
Pancakes for dinner? A-friggin-mazing!
I think I may have crossed the line. I fear I may have created a glitch in the Matrix. Because last night I made breakfast for dinner. Pancakes, to be specific. And to be even more specific, whiskey pancakes. Now to be fair, the eggs I used were free-range organic. I know, that hardly makes it any better. But in my defense, I was feeling particularly uninspired and it had been that kind of a day.
I have long considered breakfast to be the best meal of the day. It's a sacred meal. It's how you power-up for the day. But there's a lot of people out there who love breakfast for dinner – who think it's an adventure and a treat, and there's nothing wrong with that. I have just always felt that breakfast was special because it was how you started your day. After last night though, I am beginning to see that how you end your day, is just as important as how you start it. I think I may have officially joined the ranks of the breakfast-for-dinner crowd. In fact, I may now be the spokesperson.
Let me be clear about this. Do not let this become a downward spiral into syrup-stained sweatpants and socks that are on inside out. Just because I stumbled upon this little delight through a fit of laziness doesn't mean it's okay for you to declare that whiskey and pancakes are your new best friends on your roadtrip to Slackerville. Put some effort into it. Use some of your best liquor. And because it's dinner, feel free to pour yourself a tipple on the side; over one of our unique whiskey stones of course.
Whiskey Pancakes
- 2 oz. plain flour
- pinch of Salt
- 1 egg
- 1/4 pint milk
- 2 tsp. flavorless oil
- 1/2 oz. butter
- 3 tbsp. whiskey
Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Make a hole in the center, and break the egg into it. Gradually whisk(ey) in the milk to form a smooth batter. Heat a frying pan, pour in the oil and then wipe it clean. Pour just enough batter in to coat the pan, and cook for about a minute. Give it a shake to loosen it up, then toss and cook the other side. Repeat with the rest of the batter, then put the pancakes aside. Makes 4 pancakes.
Whiskey Maple Cream Sauce
- 1-1/2 cup heavy cream
- 5 tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 3 tbsp. light corn syrup
- 3 tbsp. whiskey
Combine cream, maple syrup, and corn syrup in a saucepan and stir to combine. Cook over medium-low to medium-heat, stirring constantly for 15 minutes or until sauce is reduced and thick. When sauce is thick, remove from heat and stir in whiskey. Return to heat for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly. Then drizzle over a stack of our whiskey pancakes. We like to sprinkle the whole mess with raspberries. Have fun creating your own favorite version.
And by the way, congratulations. You have just made a huge leap – you have mastered the art of slacking, without really slacking.

Former Canberra Raiders forward Joel Edwards has signed a two-year deal with the Wests Tigers.
Edwards was contracted to the Raiders until the end of 2017, but requested a release from the remaining two years of his contract earlier this month.
After starting his NRL career with the Newcastle Knights, Edwards played 43 games in his first two seasons with the Raiders in 2013 and 2014.
However, he didn't play a game this season after he was dropped to the NSW Cup and then spent four months out after having surgery on a foot injury.
The Raiders have plenty of depth in the second-row, with English international Elliott Whitehead set to join Kangaroos forward Josh Papalii and Sia Soliola next season.
Edwards said he was excited at joining the Tigers. "Hopefully I can complement the side nicely and grow with the team," Edwards said.
"It's a young squad, but I'm really excited to work with the boys and hopefully help the club get into the top eight next year.
"It's a great opportunity to come into a young, exciting team with a lot of potential."
Raiders utility Josh McCrone (Dragons), halfback Mitch Cornish (Eels) and prop Mark Nicholls (Storm) are also set to change clubs next year.

Roy Oswalt expects he'll need only four starts in the minors before joining the Texas Rangers.
"For the last six weeks I've been throwing bullpens every other day. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of throwing in before I stepped out on the field," the veteran right-hander said Wednesday on a conference call. "My arm feels great. My body feels great."
Oswalt agreed to a minor league deal with the AL West-leading Rangers and is scheduled to make his first start for Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday.

Yellow Dragon Cavern is one of the earliest caves open for tourism in China, and it is known as "the wonder of the world's caves", and one of the largest caverns in China.
Yellow Dragon Cavern is a karst cave, with peculiar limestone formations, underground streams, and large caverns. So far, the discovered cave area is about 15 kilometers long, covers 48 hectares, and is 140 meters high at its highest.
There are dry caves and water-filled caves, stalactites, stalagmites, stone blossoms, stone curtains, stone branches, stone canals, stone pearls, and stone macrospores, constituting a fantastic yet natural scene. These have been colorfully lit to contrast their features.
Boating is possible on the underground streams.
Yellow Dragon Cavern (Huanglong Dong 黄龙洞 /hwung-long dong/) is about 5 km east of the hotels at Wulingyuan. See our Zhangjiajie Hotel Map. Taxis and other tourist transport are plentiful from there. Allow half a day for exploring it.
China Highlights can help you customize a tour to visit Yellow Dragon Cavern and other Zhangjiajie Attractions.

This Turkey Dubstep Video is the Greatest Thanksgiving Treat of All
by Glen Tickle Nov 22nd
We do our best to stay current with everything we put up here on Geekosystem, but if there's a better video to end Thanksgiving Day with than this one of two animated turkeys dropping sick nasty dubstep beats from back in May then we don't know what it is. Moreover, we don't even want to hear about it. We couldn't handle anything better than this right now because we're too sleepy and full. Read More
