About Plasma Physics
The DPP APS Meeting showcases cutting-edge research results in plasma physics.
Solid, Liquid, Gas, and Plasma
Most of the matter with which we are familiar in everyday life exists in one of three states - solid, liquid, or gas. But much more of the matter in the universe exists in a fourth state known as plasma. Plasmas are collections of electrically charged particles such as electrons and protons, and typically exist in a gaseous state. Stars and nebulae are primarily composed of hot plasma.
Plasma Formation
A plasma is formed by breaking up the atoms and molecules in a gas, a process called ionization. Ionization requires adding energy to the gas, typically by passing electrical current or microwaves through it. On Earth, plasmas are created by people every day when they turn on fluorescent light bulbs or plasma-screen TV's. Bolts of lightning are comprised of plasma produced when large electrical currents pass through the atmosphere. In these examples, the plasma emits light.
Plasma Applications
Plasmas are also used to inscribe the patterns in silicon from which computer chips and other electronics are made; and they are also at the heart of the most promising nuclear fusion devices that may someday lead to an abundance of cheap, clean, and safe power sources.
Plasma Physics Research
Major achievements in plasma research this year include:
- New results from magnetically confined fusion experiments provide key answers for ITER
- Plasma traps enable new wave of table-top antimatter research
- Experiments and computer simulations are unraveling the physics of 3D magnetic fields in space and laboratory plasmas
- Laser fusion experiments push cryogenic targets into new regimes as part of the National Ignition Campaign

THE course at Leamington Spa was a muddy quagmire lashed by high winds and rain but the Wiltshire boys who headed home from the Midland Counties Cross Country Championships had a golden glow about them, writes Kevin Fahey.
For the second time in six days Westbury's Hayden Bailey topped the podium as he won the U13 boys' race following his success in the Cardiff Cross Challenge.
His Team Bath U15 boys' clubmates also rose to the challenge as Will Stockley, Themis Bower, Cameron Perkins and John Howorth swept aside their rivals to lift the team title.
Bailey maintained his excellent start to the new year, which also saw him win a silver medal at the South West Championships at the start of the month, finishing five seconds clear of Callum Abberley and Connor Bentley.
Melksham Oak School's Stockley, from Semington, gave the U15s a great start by finishing fourth – just 11 seconds off the podium.
Themis Bower was not far behind in seventh with Hardenhuish School's Cameron Perkins eighth.
The scoring was completed by John Howorth of Hilperton on 20th with twin Robert, who suffered a fall into the swollen stream, missing out in 21st, although his support and that of Jonathan Wilson in 31st was essential.
In the South of England Championships at Parliament Hill, London, 20-year-old Katherine Turner, from Bradford on Avon, finished 12th in the senior women's race.
It was a first race of the year for the Cambridge University student and former St Laurence School pupil, who runs for Team Bath AC, ahead of the British Student Championships in Scotland tomorrow.
- ORGANISERS of the Wiltshire Schools Cross Country Championships are determined to hold the event tomorrow after the first attempt was aborted on January 18.
The Championships will take place at Grittleton House School after an inspection of the course earlier in the week gave it the green light. The first race is due off at 10.15am.

SMWC equine career fair helps students prepare for the workforce
February 28th, 2012 |
The Mane Event career fair at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) helps equine students prepare for careers in the horse industry. Students networked with companies and organizations to learn more about potential job and internship opportunities. SMWC hosted the third annual event on Wed., Feb. 29, 2012 in the Le Fer Ballroom on campus.
"The Mane Event combines education, networking and a traditional job fair to expand possibilities for students to investigate the equine industry and interdisciplinary fields," said Susan Gresham, director of career development. "Our students combine their equine interests with a variety of fields, which opens up exciting new career options. The horses are the common denominator; however, the event provides connections and new ways of thinking about the application of knowledge, transferable skills and experiences to benefit a wide range of employers."
The Mane Event opened with lunch and a welcome address by Dottie L. King, Ph.D., president of SMWC. Following lunch, participants will be treated to a panel discussion with speakers from multiple facets of the equine industry across the state. The discussion focused on equine assisted work and interdisciplinary applications for business equine assisted therapy, education, human services and psychology.
Panelists included:
- Debbie Anderson, PATH, CEIP-ED, Executive Director of Strides to Success;
- Carol Boyle, MA, Executive Director of Paddock View Residential Center;
- Diane Burks, LCSW, LMFT, l Clinical social worker and licensed marriage and family therapist; and
- Tracy Weber, Ph.D., Director of Kaleidoscope Learning Circle.
Additionally, participants networked with prospective employers and exhibitors to explore careers in the equine community. Equine assisted demonstrations took place in the indoor arena.
Tours of the SMWC's Mari Hulman George School of Equine Studies were available throughout the day to showcase the College's unique degree program. SMWC is the only equine program in Indiana, and one of only 20 in the U.S. to offer a Bachelor of Science degree in equine studies. The College also offers areas of study in equine business management, equine science and equine training and instruction.

The Computer Age Breeds High-Tech Ailments
Years ago, when working Americans began to rely more and more on some sort of keyboard to complete their work, the term "carpal tunnel syndrome" began to crop up everywhere. Now, it has always existed; it's a wrist ailment that can occur via other activities like painting or sewing. But in the last 20 years, computer usage has become common practice in most any business. And we're all typing more than we ever have before. But wrist issues are no longer our only concern. Yep, the eyes have it.

I tried this back in 5.x and set it to only listen when plugged into a power source. It did not work very well. Anyone else have issues? This would be a great tweak if it worked properly. Is there a try before you buy option for this tweak? I feel that all paid tweaks should give you about a week of free use to see if you even like the tweak.
We are currently looking into some apps that use the microphone. Unfortunately google search won't share and demands sole control of the mic. We are looking for a fix. In the meantime turning the service off frees up the mic. We will also look into spotify, and suspect it is a similar "sole control" issue.
Lol!' LOVE this tweak. Had no idea it existed. The "Trekkie" setting and being able to say "Computer" and have it beep back at you in Trekkie sound is a particular nice touch! Lol!!
From the time you say Bye or Shutdown it takes about '20 seconds' to turn off though. Is that right?
Does this work with AC!D??

Event Information
The following information refers to an event that has already concluded. It is maintained for reference only.
On January 28 and 29, 2010, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College will host special guests, Retired Lieutenant General Martin R. Berndt of the U.S. Marine Corps and his wife, Diana, as well as Mary Pat Kelly, SMWC 1967 alum and author of "Good to Go: The Rescue of Scott O'Grady from Bosnia."
Leadership and Education, January 28th
During Lt. Gen. Berndt's visit, the public will have the opportunity to meet him and to hear him speak on the topic of "Leadership and Education" on the SMWC campus. His presentation will be held Thursday, January 28, at 7:00 p.m. in the Cecilian Auditorium in the Conservatory of Music building.
Lt. Gen. Berndt is visiting to show his support of the Yellow Ribbon Program that Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College participates and offers to all military branches. SMWC's participation in this program, when combined with the Post 9/11 GI Bill, means that veterans who have served on active duty for at least 36 aggregate months since 9/11/01 and who meet college admission requirements will have the opportunity to attend SMWC tuition-free.
Berndt is also showing his support for the new Sister Catherine Hartman Spiritual Companionship Program. The Sisters of Providence are partnering with SMWC by offering an optional spiritual companion to any veteran who enrolls in an academic program at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College. They will offer on-going visits with a Sister of Providence companion at the time a student may be on campus as well as on-going visits via email or letters.
LtCol Ron Benda of Kilo Company, 3rd Bn 24th Marines, who was once an English teacher at Otter Creek Middle School, said, "After World War II, the original GI Bill provided unprecedented educational opportunities to the 'Greatest Generation.' Today's Post 9/11 GI Bill and forward-thinking partners like Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College are again stepping up and providing similar well-earned and much deserved opportunities for America's newest great generation of veterans."
Honoring Sister Catherine Hartman, January 29th
On Friday, January 29, at 10:00 a.m., the public is invited to a Memorial Wreath Laying Ceremony in the Sisters of Providence Cemetery on the east side of campus. The Wreath Ceremony honors Sister Catherine Hartman, (RIP), who, prior to becoming a Sister of Providence, served as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Women's Reserve, United States Marine Corps during World War II. Members of the I-I staff for Kilo Company, 3/24, will assist in the ceremony.
"Today's Marines draw inspiration and strength from those who served before us and their 'Corps Values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment.' Honoring Sr. Catherine Hartman allows us to pay tribute to one who helped set these high standards."
- LtCol Ron Benda of Kilo Company.
About Berndt's Military Service

O'Grady's F-16 was struck by a missile in Bosnia. O'Grady survived the crash, but remained in Bosnian Serb territory until his rescue.
SMWC 1967 alum, Mary Pat Kelly, wrote a non-fiction book about the rescue entitled, "Good to Go: The Rescue of Scott O'Grady from Bosnia."
Following Berndt's retirement in 2005 from active military service, he has continued to work directly with the military as well as with organizations that support the armed forces.
Berndt currently is a senior mentor to the Marine Air-Ground Task Force Staff Training Program, holds a similar position with the Joint Forces Command, and is a member of the Onslow County Military Affairs Committee.
During his 36-year military career, Berndt commanded the U.S. Marine Corps Forces, Atlantic; U.S. Marine Corps Forces, Europe; U.S. Marine Corps Forces, South; U.S. Marine Corps Bases, Atlantic; U.S. Fleet Marine Force, Atlantic; U.S. Fleet Marine Force, Europe; the 11 Marine Expeditionary Force/Striking Force, Atlantic; the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit; and the U.S. Joint Forces Command Joint War Fighting Center.
Other positions he held include that as a Middle East/Africa planner and U.S. military liaison to the West Africa Peacekeeping Force in Liberia. He also was the assistant chief of staff to Headquarters, U.S. European Command in Stuttgart, Germany.
Lt. Gen. Berndt was commissioned a second lieutenant after his graduation from West Chester University. Following that commission, he attended The Basic School and Vietnamese language school before serving in the Vietnam War.

Configuring what services start at boot time
From MEPIS Documentation Wiki
A runlevel is a group of activities, bound together by a numbered runlevel. Each runlevel corresponds to links in the directories /etc/rc.d/rc#.d/ where # is a number from 0 to 6. These directories contain a series of scripts to start specific processes which may be more or less than other runlevels. This allows the system to have a set of very distinct operating environments – in contrast to the common legacy OS with its simple pair of safe and normal modes.
Runlevel editors
- GUI for editing the runlevels: install KSysV with apt-get:
apt-get install ksysv
- Terminal utility:
apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
Or use update-rc.d directly:
update-rc.d servicename remove -- or -- update-rc.d servicename defaults
For more info about update-rc.d type: "man update-rc.d"
Additional info about Linux runlevels
Mepis boots up by executing the program init. After completing the boot process, init executes all start scripts in a directory specified by the default runlevel (this runlevel is given by the entry for id in /etc/inittab). Like most System V compatible Unices, Linux has 7 runlevels, though the Debian treatment reduces the functional number to four:
|Halt (power down)
|Single-user mode: provides a root console,no logon-needed.(Useful if you lose your root password)
|multi-user, but network NOT running.
|multi-user,network-running,but X-Windows(GUI) NOT running
|[not used (custom)
|Normal desktop-environment logon [multi-user,network-running, X-Windows(GUI) running]
You can boot to any active runlevel by adding its number at the end of the cheatcodes at the bottom of the GRUB screen. MEPIS defaults to runlevel 5, therefore all the script setup in level 5 will run at boot.
If you have a M8 64bit installation and want to change your system back to make runlevel 3 text login only as it used to be before Lenny final:

A week ago, the Sunday Times revealed Whitehall fears about Argentina using the Olympics as a platform for protest against British control of the Falkland Islands. The paper reported:
Ministers are worried about a possible demonstration by Argentine athletes similar to the one staged at the 1968 Games in Mexico City by African-American athletes at the men's 200m medal ceremony.
Any symbolic gesture by team members would be broadcast worldwide, fuelling tensions between Britain and Argentina. Diplomatic relations between the two countries are already strained.
Since then, Christina Kirchner, the Argentinian president, has tried to reassure anxious Brits and Olympic officials by telling her athletes not to do anything "stupid". She said:
We're not stupid. We don't need to use sport to stand up for our rights. We'll defend our rights in appropriate forums, like the UN.
Well, just in case the athletes didn't get the message, Jeremy Browne, the foreign office minister for South America, has put further pressure on the Argentinians. In an interview with the FT, he made it clear the British government would see such a protest as a serious escalation of hostilities (emphasis mine): Read more

First i have had a nasty experience from another forum they were very rude, so if im not in the correct place i will say sorry now, but wanted to ask if any one could point me in the correct direction with the following....:mad:
HiCould any one assist please
I want to make a puzzle with say 6 pieces in it and have it appear on my site in a jumbled up manner.
I then want to be able to grab a bit and place it into a position, with the ultimate aim that when all pieces are in the correct position that it will say "That is the correct order"
Is this possible as I do not understand coding please folks???
Many thanks for reading this post
Hi kelvinwright. Welcome to the forums.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience elsewhere. We try to be friendly around here.
You are definitely in the right place, in terms of the kind of thing you need for this. JavaScript would indeed allow for something like this, although it takes quite a bit of skill to set something like this up—more than I have, I'm afraid. So someone smarter will need to help you out.
That said, I suspect your bad reception in another forum might have been due to the nature of your question. In general, people in forums are happy to help with a problem but don't want to do all the work for you, as otherwise it's like providing a free service. So I'd say yes, you are in the right place to be asking about this issue, as this sort of thing can be done with javaScript. But if this sort of thing is way beyond your skills to achieve, it might be better to pay a programmer for something like this. Because I'm not even able to get to first base with a task like this, even though I spend a lot of time around here, I personally would hire a programmer to do this for me. Hope that makes sense.
Hi Kelvin,
SitePoint recently posted a tutorial on this very thing.You can find it here:
Part 1Part 2Demo
Hope that helps.
(n.b. when I said 'recently', part two was the recent part :))
Many thanks and i can accept what you are saying, i just wanted to be pointed in the correct direction to have a go myself lol
Many thanksKelvin
Thats very good of you i will go check it out
Ha this is not what i need, as i said i want to have say 4 images that i can slide into order and when correct to have it say Well done that is correct.
But thank you anyway for you helpKelvin
Well, as Ralph said, you are unlikely to find someone who will simply program what you need.The tutorial was meant to point the way. Good luck!
Thats fine i dont mind paying but dont know who to contact, its for my Radio club for juniors to help them get there radio licence and we are non profit making, but as i say dont mind paying as it will help the young ones out.
Ok, so I didn't get what you mean.
Could you describe in more detail what it is you are trying to accomplish?How should the images be arranged?How do you want the user to interact with the puzzle (by clicking, by drag and drop etc.)?Are these four separate images, or one image broken into four pieces?Do you have any other examples of this kind of puzzle online?
If you want to pay someone to do this, there is always SitePoint's market place.
Hi PulloIs there an email address so i can send you a diagram??
You can send me an email by clicking my name (from any of my posts) and selecting send email.
I would however, prefer it if you posted the image here.Here's how: http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/faq.php?faq=vb3_reading_posting#faq_vb3_attachments
Thanks again for the reply
With ref to the picture i have added.............
The bottom pictures with no writing in the boxes want to be static, and the top ones (With writing in them need to be mixed up and have the drag and drop feature so that the youngsters can click and drag them and drop them in the correct order over the static boxes, and if they put them in the correct order I want it to say well done that is correct otherwise to say sorry incorrect please try again.
Hope this makes sense
Ah ok, then I misunderstood your initial post. Sorry!Let me have a think about this and I'll get back to you later on (I'm at work right now).Do you have any experience with JavaScript / HTML5?
Snapfit lets you create your own custom javascript jigsaw puzzles and seems to be closer to what you are desiring.
I had a look at this, and although it seems like a great plugin, it only seems to work with individual images.Did I miss something?
I was having a play around with this and came up with a small demo.We could easily adapt this to suit your needs. What do you think?
Hay thats getting there, thanks for all the trying, many many thanks on behalf of our juniors, i just want to help the young ones achieve there goals, thats all i want to do.
So thanks againKelvin;)
Hi there,
You know when i said you wouldn't find anyone to write the thing for you?Well ... here you go.
I tested it in IE9, IE10, Chrome (latest), Firefox (latest), Opera(latest), Safari (latest Windows)It works, but the code is very shoddy and there is still a small bug in the collision detection.I'll tidy it up in the next day or so, then post back here with a complete listing.
Also, hats off to @ralph_m ; for providing the CSS.
Hi PulloHay mate thats spot on what we are after the kids will love it mate, cant thank you enough, im even happy with it as it is, its brilliant.
God you done us proud mate please let me know the cost.
Once again Thank you
Please let me have the code asap (After payment of course lol)
Amazing job, @Pullo! Well done.

Welcome to NFTE Greater Los Angeles' Volunteer Homepage
We deliver entrepreneurial programming to 26 middle schools, high schools, and youth organizations in the Greater Los Angeles area. We have program sites in Downtown, South LA, West LA, Pasadena, Pomona, and San Fernando Valley. Our volunteers are essential to every NFTE program. Students often tell us that a highlight of the program is working with the different professionals who volunteer of their time.
Our volunteers are diverse individuals—corporate executives at major national and international companies, entrepreneurs, young professionals, retired executives, and mid-level managers—who represent all aspects of business operations. They are enthusiastic about entrepreneurship and helping students define their pathway to prosperity. Our volunteers' efforts have a direct and lasting influence on the personal and professional successes of our young people.
Volunteer Orientation
Become a NFTE volunteer
As a volunteer, you can select from several exciting opportunities that suit your schedule and interest. By lending your talent and time, you can present new perspectives on the NFTE curriculum to students. Our program manager and staff are available during volunteer assignments to lend individuals support and guidance. To find an opportunity that interests you and fits your schedule, review the brief descriptions of our four principle volunteer positions here.
Are you ready to join us as a volunteer? We hope you are. The process is clear and simple. Click the "new volunteer application" button and complete the application. You can also contact the volunteer coordinator at firstname.lastname@example.com or 310-405-3212 for more information about volunteering.
Our program model
Our program model is a stimulating classroom-based curriculum. Through the development of an original business plan using a NFTE experiential approach, we engage students by imparting the fundamentals of entrepreneurship education. We help students realize that core school subjects are relevant to their lives and can help them succeed.
Students learn throughout the year what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and the skills necessary to launch, manage, and grow their own business. They start at the very beginning with opportunity recognition, move into market research and business finances, and conclude by presenting and defending their original business plan.
Our student participants
Our students come from low-income communities in major cities across the country, which are often rife with crime, violence, and high dropout rates. However, we instill hope and improve students' lives through entrepreneurship education. The strong financial literacy skills that they learn help them to make and manage money.
We encourage students to stay in school and help them recognize business opportunities that create pathways to success. Students gain tools for success and actively participate in the world of business and entrepreneurship, which leads to a revised vision they have of themselves and their future. They graduate with the necessary presentation, leadership, and problem-solving skills for continuing their education and contributing to the economy by becoming business owners or joining the workforce.

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
By Neil Mahoney
Wants and needs are things we all have, but our lists differ depending on our lifestyles, self-perceptions, and work requirements. Needs are things we absolutely must have—such as food, clothing, and shelter, but some of these things also can be wants. We need food and shelter, and could get this by foraging for roots and berries and living in a cave. But few of us want to do this. You may want a McMansion and a limousine, while others might want a four-room bungalow and pedal a bike to work. Twenty or 30 years ago, few of us needed or even wanted a computer in our homes. Today a very high percentage of us need at least one, while an even larger percentage wants two or more—plus a cell phone, an iPod, etc.
Aside from the very basics of life, wants and needs change over time. A century ago, horses, hay, barns, and blacksmiths were necessities. A stable of horses and elegant carriages were what many people wanted. Today it's cars, wide-screen TVs, and iPads.
Depending on the businesses we're in, our customers and prospects all have needs—products and services they must have in order to operate efficiently and effectively. They have wants, too—and this is where Sales & Marketing come in. When you have a product or service you want (there's that word again), you explore and evaluate the options that are available to you—and in every situation there'll be a small percentage of people or businesses that account for 75 percent or more of all sales, while the large majority will account for just a small fraction.
Smart Marketing is all about identifying or anticipating the major wants and needs of the few top markets and market segments, then figuring out how to best attract and satisfy them better than the competition. Wants and needs can change—or be changed—and smart marketers try to do this.
Copy Cats
A large office supply chain recognized that many small to mid-sized businesses used its copy facilities occasionally or quite often. To induce them to become more frequent, more loyal customers it improved the appearance and utility of the area where its copy equipment was located. This not only brought in more business for its copiers, it increased the likelihood that those customers would shop for other office products they might want or need. In short, the chain added greatly to its customer-prospect base.
In identifying those prospects who hold the most promise for large sales and profits, it's important to remember that virtually every market is made up of several segments that have different wants and needs—as well as characteristics that conform to the 20-80 rule or hockey stick shown by Pareto's curve:
Here's an example:
Hardware and Hand Tools
The hand tool/hardware market has three major segments: 1. Light Do-It-Yourselfers. 2. Moderate and Serious Do-It-Yourselfers, 3. Professional Contractors. Each group has vastly different wants and needs, however. They also shop and buy very differently, and this is something to consider for any products you have to sell, whatever the market.
Light Do-It-Yourselfers comprise 70 percent of the 80 to 90 million people who buy hand tools in the U.S. each year, but account for only 20 percent of the spending. They have little brand awareness or preference. They buy their hand tools where it's most convenient for them—supermarkets, department stores, variety stores, or their local hardware store if it's handy. They usually buy low-cost items, and many of the purchases are done on impulse so they don't spend time looking for bargains.
Moderate DIYers are best described as average homeowners who change washers in leaky faucets, paint trim, or fix a leaky gutter or broken window. They're mildly brand conscious and don't mind paying a bit more for perceived quality, but don't fancy themselves to be Pros, and don't try to emulate them as the Serious DIYers do. They are similar to the Serious DIYers as to where they shop, however. They'll usually shop at the big-box home improvement chains where they can get good prices, but they'll also be seen at hardware stores or department stores that are known for specializing in hand tools. Together, they and their Serious DIY brothers and sisters account for 25 percent of the buyers, and 25 to 30 percent of the spending.
Serious DIYers resemble Moderate DIYers in many other ways, but they're much more proficient. These people upgrade bathrooms and add decks to their houses. Like kids who strap on their holsters to play cops and robbers, when Serious DIYers strap on their tool belts, they become the electrician, the plumber, or the home builder. While their shopping habits are similar to those of Moderate DIYers, they'll also be seen at contractor supply houses, where the Pros most often buy.
The Pros—who are only 5 percent of the purchasers of hand tools in the U.S. —account for a whopping 50 percent of all the dollars spent. They shop at the contractor supply houses because the salespeople really know their stuff, and the stores cater to their needs—especially assured, on-time delivery. The Pros can't afford to have their crews standing idly around waiting for the truck to show.

The Crap We Missed – Thursday 2.21.13
"And now to incept the words 'I'm Batman' into each of their heads before dumping their bodies in the past. God, I love dating!"
Welcome to Thursday's The Crap We Missed, which draws pretty heavily on The Brit Awards, because they are a very important thing that Americans should be paying attention to way more closely. We've also got Justin Bieber rocking some sweet optical illusion shoes that if you stare at long enough will trick your eyes into seeing
Usher's penis a douchebag, as well as Ashley Benson continuing to win those Spring Breakers premieres, Tom Jones whose face now requires every single muscle to wink, Harry Potter and the Hep-Blood Prince, and finally, holy shit, Prince Charles really does just point and laugh at anything.

"Tim and I will be husband and wife on May 29, 2016. We both joined ChristianMingle in early 2015. Tim is an officer in the United States Army, and at the time I was finishing up my graduate work. For us, it seemed like this was the best way to meet someone... and we were right!"
After a few weeks of using the site, I came across this cute picture so I pulled up his profile and decided to send him a 'smile'. Tim was away for a wedding at the time and a week or so later responded with a short message. We exchanged messages for a few weeks and then Tim explained that he was going away for an army training and would not be able to talk to me while he was there. I went out on a limb and gave him my email address and my phone number to see if he wanted to keep in touch after his training. Later that day I received my first text from Tim. Tim went away for his training and he was able to have his phone for a few hours one day and I heard from him, I should have realized right then and there that he was something special. Once Tim came back from his training in August he made it a great effort to take me on a date. I was a bit nervous but finally decided to meet him in Philadelphia. I was living in the Buffalo area at the time and he was living north of Syracuse. I was going to be in Philadelphia for the weekend to visit my friend, and Tim was going to be there visiting his sister. I figured we would have one lunch date and just see where it went from there. Tim and I ended up hanging out five times that weekend. From the very beginning Tim went out of his way to be a gentleman. From that weekend on, Tim and I were able to see each other every weekend (unless he had military training). As we started dating we grew to be each other's best friend.

SEC's Top 25 players: No. 8 Loucheiz Purifoy
Published: Thursday, July 18, 2013 at 12:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 18, 2013 at 2:15 p.m.
Gatorsports.com counts down this season's standout players in the nation's toughest conference.
No. 8 Loucheiz Purifoy
Position: Cornerback/Wide receiver
School: Florida
Height: 6-foot
Weight: 190 pounds
Year: Junior
Why he's No. 8: Purifoy is one of the SEC's most dynamic athletes, a versatile player who can beat you in all three phases of the game — offense (wide receiver), defense (cornerback) and special teams (blocking kicks, forcing fumbles). As a true sophomore last season, Purifoy recorded 51 tackles, broke up five passes and forced a fumble in his 12 starts at cornerback. He may have been even more productive on special teams, where he blocked two punts (one to beat Louisiana in the closing seconds) and forced two fumbles. He'll have a package of plays on offense this season, where the Gators are hoping he can be a downfield threat in the passing game.

Q & A — November 2003
By Capt. Ken Kreisler
Air Free
| Part
2: Treating Mold
do I treat mold on my headliner? G.B., via e-mail
Depending on the severity of the infestation—how long it's been there and how widespread it is—whatever is affected will often have to be thrown out.
Mold is hard to kill, so you'll need to do a thorough washing with detergent and bleach, followed by a rinsing, after which the area should be allowed to dry completely. Wiping it off with a damp rag will not do.
However, before you go at it, there are some precautions. As mold is a health risk, especially to those with respiratory problems such as asthma, make sure you wear a HEPA filter respirator, protective goggles, and rubber gloves when doing your cleanup. Not only will you be protected from inhaling the spores, but you'll be safe from any harsh detergents. And as you don't want the mold getting on you, you may want to wear disposable protective clothing.
First cover the area around your workspace, including any furniture, with a plastic drop cloth. Shut off all air conditioning and fans to prevent the spores from traveling to other parts of your boat during the cleanup. In addition, cover the return-air intake with plastic and seal the edges with masking tape.
Put on your respirator, gloves, and goggles, and wipe down the affected area with a rag dipped in a solution of 1/2 cup of chlorine bleach and a gallon of water. Once done, throw the rag away in a garbage bag. Next mix up a paste of Spic And Span with water and apply it to the area. Leave the paste on for a few minutes before wiping it down with a wet rag (water only), also disposing of the rag once the area is clean. You may have to apply more than one coat of paste if there is still a stain or mold residue.
Wash down the area again with a fresh solution of 1/2 cup of bleach to a gallon of water, after which you should leave it to dry. However, if it takes more than one application of the paste, your headliner may be permanently stained and need to be replaced anyway. You can try removing the stain with any of a number of available products before throwing in the towel. If it's possible, you may also want to look under your headliner in case there is any mold growing in the space between it and the actual overhead.
When cleanup is complete, roll up the drop cloth and any other materials you used, including your gloves and disposable protective clothing, and seal them in a garbage bag for disposal. Change your clothes, take the dirty ones home in a plastic bag, and wash them in hot water and detergent. And take a shower. (If the affected area is small, a few inches all around, there's no need for these elaborate precautions. Just make sure you protect your eyes when using the bleach and detergents. If you happen to be working in close quarters, that respirator might be a wise choice.)
The best means to prevent or control the spread of mold is to deny the spores the moisture they need to develop. And while there are many products on the market that may "guarantee" positive results in keeping things dry, adequate air circulation is key; an exhaust fan as well as proper venting will help to increase circulation. In addition, make sure you repair any area where water may be infiltrating, and keep the space free of dust, dirt, and organic debris that can nourish spores.
Nicro, a subsidiary of Marineco, has a line of passive solar fans. The company claims the units are easy to install and will provide more than adequate air movement to prevent mold growth. (888) 394-4556 or visit www.marineco.com. Click on the left side boat image and then on Nicro.

Turkey Tournament Games This Weekend
Pull date:
Mon, 11/29/2010
We have 20 Turkey Tournament Teams from divisions U10, U12, U14 & U16 participating in Thanksgiving Tournaments. All teams will be in one of two tournaments in Pasadena, so if you find yourself doing your Black Friday weekend shopping in Old Town Pasadena, swing by and cheer on your fellow Santa Monica "Saints". Team lists & Tournament locations can be found on the Turkey Tournament page under the Fall 2010 tab.
If you are attending a tournament as a coach, player, parent or spectator, remember that good sportsmanship is essential at all times. You are representing Santa Monica AYSO's best. Tournament organizers have long memories and troublesome teams and regions can be left on the sidelines in future seasons. Shouting at players or refs sets a bad example for kids and will not be tolerated.
Parents, please don't coach your children from the sidelines. For obvious reasons, this makes the work of both the coach and the players more difficult. On the other hand, cheering, jumping up and down, clapping and other general positive support are strongly recommended. This encouragement makes the kids feel good about themselves and what they're doing, win or lose.
Read AYSO's Sideline Etiquette on the Game Documents/Info page under the Managers tab.
Finally, please extend a thank you to your referee team this weekend. We are lucky to have all of our teams in these two tournaments (first time ever), due in a large part to our ability to provide referees for the tournament. We wouldn't be there without them. Let them know you appreciate them.

US Youth Soccer National League: Vegas Preview
March 12, 2013 04:45 PM
FRISCO, Texas (March 12, 2013) –
After four weekends of
US Youth Soccer National League
play, the 2012-2013 season will be finalized this weekend as the remaining Boys and Girls teams head to Las Vegas, Nev., for their final three games. Each division will be represented by four of the eight teams, as half of the field in each gender completed their season in Orlando at the start of the year.
"It's really great to play at this caliber. First and foremost, the professionalism of the National League; taking care of players, making them feel special, showing them what it feels like to be professional and the setup and organization," said Lehigh Valley United Director of Coaching, Greg Ramos. "It's really an atmosphere and an environment that's really special. Then you come in and have the quality of the matches that you get, and it's just the best thing that we're apart of each year."
The National League is an extension of the highly successful US Youth Soccer Regional Leagues (Region I Premier League, Midwest Regional League, Southern Premier League and Far West Regional League). The National League provides an avenue for teams to play in meaningful matches against top competition from across the country for continued development. In addition to recruiting opportunities, National League teams compete for the league title and two slots per division to the annual
US Youth Soccer National Championships
, the oldest and most prestigious youth soccer national championship.
Teams that earn their spot in the National League have a proven track record of success in US Youth Soccer regional and national competitions, and are among the nation's best. Hundreds of college scouts attend each National League weekend, creating another significant opportunity for the nations collegiate and National Team coaches to see National League players in an environment of meaningful play, citing the competitive level of each game as every team has to earn their spot in the competition, regardless of club affiliation or location.
"Every team deserves to be here, they earned their way in here, and every team competes to the end. So, every game for us was very, very difficult," said Match Fit Academy Girls Director of Coaching, Dom Bucci. "This is our third year in the National League, this is the best league in the country, and we're happy to be a part of it."
The sixth season of league play marked some changes as an additional two teams per age group, four total, will advance to the 2013 National Championships this summer in Overland Park, Kan., and the Under-18 Boys and Girls now advance to the National Championships through the league.
With four National League representatives joining the four Regional Champions at the National Championships, the stakes are high as National League representatives have shown their strength through the first five years. Over that time, National League teams have won 20 of a possible 30 National Championships, including seven of eight in 2012.
Heading into the final weekend, just five of the 16 division titles have been decided, and 16 of the 32 slots to the National Championships have yet to be claimed. The pressure is on for the teams competing in Las Vegas, but many teams will be at home anxiously awaiting the results from this weekend's games to find out their fate.
Teams that finish in the top-two of their division will secure their place in the league next year and advance to the National Championships, but the teams that fall short will have another opportunity through their respective Regional Championships. Last year, 15 National League teams went on to claim their Regional Championship and advance to Nationals.
"I think for player development, they have to continue to play in competitions that take them out of their comfort zone and that have something on the line that requires them to have to play under some sort of pressure," said Eclipse Select Head Coach, Rory Dames. "When there's something on the line, and you can get players into those types of competitions, it's definitely going to increase their development."

Model 105 was a landmark product - not just for KEF, but also for the loudspeaker industry as a whole. Physical form followed acoustical function in this radical looking system that set new standards for tonal accuracy and precise stereo imaging. Such was its performance and reputation that in its revised form it remained in production until 1987.
Continuing the lineage of KEF's high-end loudspeakers that started with the K1 Monitor, Model 105 was a three-way system of modular design, allowing the enclosure of each unit to be optimised for its respective frequency operating range. The result was a smooth and continuous dispersion pattern that gave superior imaging not only in the central position, but over a wide listening area.
The bass section comprised a 12 inch bextrene coned bass driver, housed in a 70 litre closed box enclosure, fed by a filter section that included a novel topology to convert the bass roll-off to a third order characteristic, allowing a low –3dB cut-off frequency but with useful attenuation of the subsonic frequencies typical of the analogue sources at the time. The B110 midrange and T52 high frequency drivers were housed in a separate, heavily damped, enclosure, which could be directed towards the listening position independently of the bass section.
The acoustic response was precisely tailored for a neutral tonal balance, assisted by the adoption of the newly derived Linkwitz-Riley fourth order crossover alignment, and to minimize the risk of driver damage due to amplifier clipping, an indicator light could be set to trigger at specific peak power levels.
The updates introduced in the Model 105.2 included driver mechanical decoupling, revised enclosure design, S-Stop protection circuitry and pair matching.
At the 1980 Edinburgh Festival, for a performance of Berlioz' Te Deum, thirty-six Model 105.2s were located in the Usher Hall to reproduce the sound of the organ of St. Mary's Cathedral some one mile away. The sound was relayed by an FM radio link set up by the BBC - a video link also being used to allow organist Gillian Wier to follow the conducting of Claudio Abbado – who judged the event to be resounding success.

Ervin, Lee, and Petronis Earn Honors
SAINT LEO, Fla. – Sophomore Heather Petronis, Senior Goeun Lee and recently graduated Lion Suzanne Ervin, received the last of the hardware for the 2010-11 season as the trio earned National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) Scholar All-American honors, it was announced Friday by the NGCA.
In total, 566 women's collegiate golfers across Division I, II, and III, were recognized with the prestigious honor.
About the acknowledgment, Coach Erika Brennan commented, "This is an amazing testament to the ladies dedication in the classroom. I am extremely proud of these ladies."
The trio, who helped the Lions reach the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season, contributed very successful individual campaigns both on the course and in the classroom for the Green & Gold.
"Last year we had our first two recipients of this honor in Anna Riss and Suzanne Ervin, so I am excited that this team continues to raise the bar with three recipients this season. We will continue to build on this momentum during the upcoming year."
Sophomore Heather Petronis, a Sport Business major, had one of the best freshman campaigns in program history. Being named Saint Leo Female Athlete of the Week twice and Sunshine State Conference Player of the Week once, the Northfield, N.J. native was selected the SSC's Freshman of the Year, in addition to claiming one tournament crown and setting a program record-low round of 69 at the NIU Snowbird International. She finished the year with a 79.58 scoring average.
Lee, a Criminal Justice major, was also selected Saint Leo Female Athlete of the Week. She posted a low-round score of 72 at the Peggy Kirk Bell Intercollegiate and completed the season with a 79.38 scoring average.
Ervin, an Accounting major and a two-time recipient of the award, was one of four Lions to compete in all 26 rounds. She connected on 30 birdies and collected a scoring average just a shade over 80. She highlighted her season with a low-round score of 76.
In total, four Sunshine State Conference schools appeared on the list.
The National Golf Coaches Association, founded in 1983, is a non-profit organization representing women's collegiate golf coaches. Today, the NGCA represents nearly 500 coaches throughout the U.S. and is dedicated to educating, promoting and recognizing both its members and the student-athletes they represent. The criteria for selection to the All-American Scholar Team are some of the most stringent in all of college athletics. The minimum cumulative GPA is 3.50 and student-athletes must have competed in at least 66% of the college's regularly scheduled competitive rounds during the year.

Boston, MA, US
Moho is a new concept in the long-standing tradition of world-class Miami hotel design. Its dynamic form expresses the grand sense of luxury and theatricality that popularized Miami hotels in a kit-of-parts assembly that efficiently responds to contextual, programmatic and environmental variables. In this way, the ability to adapt and respond—to cater to each guest—is articulated as its primary function.
The hotel floats eighty rooms made of one hundred eighty re-purposed shipping containers above a plinth of stepped landscape and public function areas. The rooms are arranged in two bars backing onto an open atrium. The front, urban bar develops a strong relationship with its Collins Avenue neighbors and frames Western views to Biscayne Bay and downtown. Unique features of the facility including elegant restaurant and retail areas, the projecting event room and seventh floor glass spa are dramatically expressed to the surrounding community. The rear ocean bar sweeps in a series of cascading levels from the eleventh floor to the pool area. Generous terraces with stunning ocean views define a strong sense of connection to the pool and shoreline below. Central to the complex, the canted atrium dramatically features a braced tubular steel frame and series of asymmetrical bridges linking the open corridors of the Ocean and Urban guest bars. Guest and staff elevator towers define the southern and northern edges of the glass roofed Lobby below.
Moho intentionally blends an attitude of sheltered luxury and outreach to the community. The massing of the facility presents a wall of private rooms punctured with public functions and open spaces. This architectonic element simultaneously shelters guest rooms above Collins Avenue and reestablishes the urban street wall while the community is encouraged to view and participate in various functions below. Color tinted glass is expressed against the white painted shipping container (guest room) walls and limestone circulation towers to create drama at night and attract pedestrians. The ground floor area, largely devoted to parking and back-of-house functions, includes a small, convenient retail space and open atrium Lobby. Guests and public patrons are dramatically drawn into the facility entry below the large projecting spaces of the upper Lobby. Restaurant, bar and a variety of public and private meeting areas are woven around this pivotal space and finally, access to the cascading landscape and ocean beyond is provided through a series of pivoting glass panels.

Need a dinner idea for tonight? At 4pm ET, Nigella Lawson is whipping up a simple, sexy salad that should cement her title as Kitchen Goddess…
In her Feel Good Food episode (today, 4pm ET), Nigella puts fresh Asian flair and taste into your regular comfort food roster. Watch her in action this afternoon and then make it tonight.
This light but delicious salad has only five main ingredients and comes together quickly. Better yet, the Vietnamese dressing will keep in your fridge for up to a week.
Get Nigella's Vietnamese Shrimp and Glass Noodle Salad Recipe:
Cook's Note: Her recipe calls for groundnut oil which is simply a British term for peanut oil. If you don't have peanut oil on hand, you can use sesame oil in this recipe since you aren't stir frying or heating the oil. Peanut oil has a high smoke point but in the case of a cold salad, sesame oil can work.

Every major release of LCDS goes through an external security audit, you can view the report in the LCDS product PDF portfolio (the portfolio also includes a great performance brief).
The LCDS attack surface is very small, but there are a number of things to consider:
- Use AMF in production (also consider AMF for performance as it is better at handling large complex Object graphs).
- If you are using AMFX use LCDS 3.1, which fixes a number of known XML vulnerabilities. If you are unable to upgrade to LCDS 3.1 then you should apply this security patch.
- Use secure channels (refer to Using LiveCycle Data Services ES2 Version 3.1).
- If you are using the proxy service then secure it as per this post.
- If you are concerned about XSS attacks then validate incoming client data using a custom queue processor (refer to Using LiveCycle Data Services ES2 Version 3.1).
- Try to ensure end users are on the latest Flash player.
- Ensure RDS is not enabled in production (comment out the RDSDispatchServlet in web.xml).
- Make sure your app server is secure per best practices of the vendor (you should also look at Hardening and Security for LiveCycle ES, which provides some general recommendations).
There are a number of useful resources that discuss securtiy:
- Enterprise security for Flex
- Creating more secure SWF web applications
- OWASP Flash Security Project
- Adobe Flash Player 10 Security
- Adobe AIR HTML Security

NekNominate: East Lancashire councillors 'must apologise for drinking stunt'
9:00pm Monday 24th February 2014
9:00pm Monday 24th February 2014
A COUNTY councillor has called on two councillors to apologise for taking part in deadly social media drinking game, Neknominate.
County Councillor Azhar Ali is set to launch a campaign to warn youngsters of the dangers of drinking games next week.
And he has called on councillors Paul White and Jennifer Purcell to apologise after they posted videos of themselves downing a pint.
Coun Purcell, a Pendle borough councillor for Barnoldswick, declined to comment yesterday while Coun White, who is a Lancashire county and Pendle councillor, was unavailable.
County Coun Ali, who is chairman of Lancashire County Council's health and wellbeing board, said: "This game maybe started as a joke but it has gone viral and is now extremely dangerous and five people have already needlessly lost their lives.
"Councillors Paul White and Jennifer Purcell should apologise for taking part in it.
"They may say that they didn't do anything dangerous but by taking part they have allowed this game to continue and people are dying from it. I hope they will both support my campaign."
The news comes as the Local Government Association, which represents almost 400 councils in England and Wales, said prominent messages were needed on the Facebook and Twitter about the dangers of the craze.
The LGA said some schools had asked for warning notices about Neknominate to be put on noticeboards and read out at assemblies.
Last Wednesday, the industry-funded charity Drinkaware called on parents to take a tough stance against the game over fears that young teenagers are under pressure to take part.
Katie Hall, chair of the LGA's community wellbeing board, said: "This is an utterly reckless and totally irresponsible craze which has tragically claimed lives. More should be done to highlight the dangers and persuade people not to participate.
"The LGA is urging Facebook and Twitter executives to sit down with us and discuss a way forward which tackles this issue head-on." Liberal Democrat leader for Blackburn with Darwen, David Foster said: "Certainly the more we can do to stop people engaging in dangerous behaviour the better.
"Alcohol is a big problem in this area in terms of people being admitted to hospital and so forth so these warnings could help benefit not only the individual but relieve some of the pressures that are put on the health service budget."

Leopard Flannel Pajamas
If only I could fit into this kids pajama set, I would buy it in a heartbeat. An all-over leopard print makes these flannel pjs (pants and shirt) really loud and fun. Maybe not quite right for bedtime in terms of peacefulness, but idea for a slumber party!

Speech and language development milestones relate to receptive
language (the ability to understand words and sounds) and expressive language
(the ability to use speech and gestures to communicate meaning).
A child's speech and language development becomes more advanced
beginning around age 3 through age 5. Receptive language skills during this
period become more sophisticated; a child learns to make subtle distinctions
between objects and relationships. Also, the child can understand
multi-step requests. Most children also gradually speak more fluently and use
proper grammar more consistently.

"I used this enclosure card for a separate Reception information card. I wrote a line inviting guests to the reception after the ceremony, and included the address as well as the overnight accommodation information since the reception was host in the hotel we blocked rooms at. I also fit a line at the bottom of the page directing guests to our wedding website for more information. I worked with the design team to customize a font size in the middle of the page and they were very helpful to work with. They continued to send me revisions until it was exactly what I was looking for. I had a very positive experience creating this enclosure."
"These cards are the perfect touch for any favors. They were just as I expected. The paper was a very good quality not thin at all. The delivery time was so fast even when I revised the wording. I ordered invitations too...very reliable company to do business with!!"
"Nice little addition to my reception cards I sent out. Please note..this card is very small...smaller than a business card. But design is pretty and modern and I am quite satisfied with it. Very fast shipping!"
"I continue to be impressed by the quality of the staff and merchandise that I've received from Wedding Paper Divas. I wouldn't go anywhere else for invitations! These were perfect for placing around the tulle gift bags."
"I needed a small enclosure card for my bridal shower and these were perfect! A fun and cute way to add a little bit more info for an affordable price!!"

"I added 3 topics on this particular card and the designer actually re-did it so that the overall designing of this card is consistent throughout. Very happy with the job that they did."
"Although this set does not have a reception card, which is strange cause everyone gets a reception card most likely, BUT the great part about this you are able to customize it and I customized it to a reception card and even went back and forth with them to help me choose the best wording/option. I love it!"
"Great option for including that bit of extra information much needed by your guests. This design offered space for a large amount of text on a small card. We used it to write a short note to our guests. Included on ours were accommodation options, preferred dress, and a bit about the venue of the ceremony. Loved the little detail of the drawing on the back. Very clean design!"
"Great quality! I worked with the proofing team to get everything on this page that I could'nt fit by myself. super helpful team!!"
"The quality is wonderful and there was plenty of space to include a lot of information. We wished to save funds by including hotel and wedding website information on the front and directions on the back. It was just what we hoped it would be! Very classy...or should I say, very vintage!"
