True Beauty Box
I'm really excited to share with you the newest True Beauty Box. The review of the previous Box can be found at this link: True Beauty Box Cruelty Free Cosmetics & Skin Care
True Beauty Box is for you if…
True Beauty Box is for you if you love to try different natural and cruelty free cosmetics and skin care! This monthly service launched in December of 2012. Unlike other beauty boxes, where you may or may not receive items that are cruelty free, Love True Natural is the company that is running the True Beauty Box. Love True Natural is a 100% natural and cruelty free beauty company.
While I strongly recommend that everyone always double-check, True Beauty Box does guarantee that all of the products that members receive in their True Beauty Box will be free of Parabens, PEG, Phthalates, Petrochemicals, and synthetic colors.
Every month the True Beauty Box will contain three to four FULL size products, (this month there are four), plus you will receive samples. In addition, True Beauty Box members will have exclusive access to sales and special prices on the Love True Natural website.
It starts by completing a beauty profile quiz at www.truebeautybox.com, and then choosing the style of box you want (Flirt, Veganista, or Indulge). After the quiz you simply submit the information, and your box will arrive soon.
As a member, you will receive a "sneak peak" of each beauty profile on the 12th of each month. True Beauty Box strives to make you happy, and they want to make certain that you're going to love what you receive. Therefore, you not only don't have to make a commitment, but each month you have the option to re-take the beauty quiz for a different beauty profile and box style. Of course, there is also the option to skip, or cancel by the 15th of each month. The only thing that you need to remember is that after the initial charge (for your first Box), you will automatically be charged on the 16th of each month if you do not notify them.
Of the three options, Flirt and Veganista are both currently $30; Indulge is $40. The Beauty Box that I received is as follows:
True Love Beauty Box: Flirt
True Beauty Box with Benecos Natural Baked Colour Eyeshadow
The gluten free eyeshadow in Chocolate is gorgeous! The formula is really smooth, and that's because the organic plant oils provide a creamy application. You can apply the eyeshadow wet or dry, depending on the effect you want. Since they are baked, Benecos writes that their mineral shadow won't crumble or shatter.
I love the sparkles. I think it's just the right amount for a nice elegant look. I used eye shadow primer and the eye shadow stayed put, even with a trip to the gym (see the end of the post for picture).
True Beauty Box with Benecos Natural Kajal Eye Liner
This is a gluten free, matte black kohl pencil that is nice and creamy, and I had no trouble with thick or thin lines. It's no surprise, since they are formulated with organic plant oils and pure minerals. Use along upper and lower lash lines.
Benecos eye liner pencils are safe for those who wear contact lenses. I applied primer on my eyelids, and this eye liner lasted– even with a trip to the gym (see photo at the end of the post).
True Beauty Box with Benecos Maximum Length Mascara
This gluten free mascara is in the color carbon black.
This naturally hydrating Super Long Lash Mascara adds length and carbon black tone to lashes without any chemicals. With Vitamin E.
I liked that the mascara did add some length to my lashes, and I liked the wand. Here's a swatch of the black color:
The mascara is made with organic Jojoba, sunflower oils, and Vitamin E for hydration. I wore the mascara to the gym and the photo is at the end of the post.
True Beauty Box with Benecos Baked Blush
This gluten free, mineral blush is baked for color so that it lasts. The ingredients of Cupuau butter and Sacha Inchi oil will keep skin hydrated and provide anti-aging benefits.
I received coral, one of the two colors that the blush is available in:
The shimmery coral color is recommended for fair to medium skin tones.
Here is a great visual from Love True Natural for how to apply:
Round Face Shape
Apply directly to the cheek bones as flat as possible.
Square Face Shape
Apply the rouge between the hairline and cheeks. To begin at the far end of the cheek bone, apply the rouge in one stroke down gently and run out to leave the temples. So the distinctive shape of the face looks softer.
Oval Face Shape
Apply the rouge near the top approximatelly at the level of the temples and run diagonally to the corners of the mouth down. This gives the face more contour.
Heart Face Shape
Begin in the middle of the cheeks: Apply blush and run out from there to the temples.
True Beauty Box with Lavera Foundation
The following are two (2 ml) sample sizes of the Lavera Trend Sensitive Organic Natural Liquid Foundation
Porcelain 01- is for fair -yellowish undertones
Ivory 02- is for fair -medium rose undertone
Lavera Trend Sensitive Organic Natural Liquid Foundation is Vegan Society Certified. It is designed to lightly cover your imperfections. This is not a heavy foundation! It contains organic oils with conditioning properties, Vitamins A, C and E to help fight against free radicals. The Foundations have been tested by dermatologists and ophthalmologists.
I decided to put the mascara, eyeshadow and eyeliner to the test. I worked out at the gym and this is the after shot:
The Flirt Box was an excellent value at $30. Here is the price of each item if purchased separately:
Benecos Baked Eye Shadow is $13
Benecos Baked Blush is $16
Benecos Natural Eyeliner is $9
Benecos Maximum Length Mascara is $17
Lavera Foundation Samples 1 & 2
Grand total: $55.00, if purchased separately!
Here again is the True Beauty Box website; and of course, you can always let me know if you have any questions.

Here's something to ponder when you're sitting there, stuck in traffic. What does the Zoo do with all that animal poop? Do we bury it or ship it overseas? Or do we simply flush it? Hey, there isn't a toilet big enough for that job! The answer? We make soil out if it! The Oakland Zoo's on-site composting program, which has been underway for several years now, successfully diverts tons of waste from landfills and provides us with a valuable new resource: organic compost!
It's a big job, but here's how we do it: Manure from elephants, giraffes, zebras and other herbivores, along with straw (soiled animal bedding) is collected daily around the Zoo. Included with this are scraps of fruit and vegetables, eggshells and other items discarded from the animal kitchens. It takes several truck loads.
Everything would be much simpler if it wasn't for the straw. It makes up a huge percentage of our compostable material—somewhere in the neighborhood of ninety percent! Early on, this was causing us problems, as we discovered that straw is much slower to decompose than manure. So the Scrapper was brought in to the rescue. The Scrapper is a six-foot long bin with rotating blades that chew up the straw into smaller, more easily digestible bits—sort of like the way your teeth help out your stomach by breaking down the food in your mouth before you swallow it.
Once this is done, the material is ready to be sent to the composting machine. Visualize a giant mechanical sausage-stuffer and you'll get the idea. Using a small Bobcat tractor, we dump this chopped material into the hopper of the machine (also known as the Ag-Bag.) Here, it's mixed with a special liquid to accelerate the breakdown process. Then, a hydraulic compression ram stuffs the mixture into a tube-like plastic bag (imagine a long trash bag open at both ends.) The Ag-Bag machine has wheels which allow it to be pulled slowly along the ground by the Bobcat, as it leaves the filled portion of the bag behind it, like a tail. A plastic hose is attached to the far end of the bag through which air is pumped, providing circulation. Later, the bag is fitted with a series of small vents to release the waste gases that are produced.
For several weeks, this bag continues to be filled until it reaches a length of about 75 feet. Then, the end is sealed and a new bag is started alongside. These long gray bags sit in the sun, allowing the mixture inside to heat up. When it gets to a temperature of 130-150 degrees Fahrenheit, pathogens are destroyed. During the following months, the material breaks down, gradually becoming less like straw and manure, and more like soil. It's basically the same process that has created topsoil for the earth for millions of years! After three or four months, the bags are opened.
The finished product is an incredibly rich, 100% organic compound that amends the soil and allows our horticulture department to grow healthy and beautiful plants throughout the zoo grounds.
But don't think that you have to be a zoo in order to participate in the composting process. Anyone can start their own compost pile right at home. It's very simple. Just alternate layers of waste produce with dried leaves, cover it up and let the worms do the rest. In fact, I've been doing that very thing for years now, using this compost to enrich the vegetable garden in my backyard. It's good to know that nothing goes to waste—it's all part of the ongoing cycle of life!

Topic: Hi there. My 80 y.o. father apparently has this form of cancer
Hi there. My 80 y.o. father apparently has this forum of cancer. When I spoke to his PCP last week (I'm in California - my parents are in the Midwest) the doctor said what kind of cancer it was and I jotted it down (phonetically) and then Googled the name and found this board.
First, my mom was told it was a 6 mm liver tumor (she's 69 and something may have been lost in translation).
What I now understand is that it's an 11 cm tumor that's located (they think) on the biliary tree and perhaps part of the pancreas.
I guess none of that really matters in his case because he is so debilitated from diabetes that he doesn't want to go with any kind of treatment. He's nearly blind and almost deaf and had a quadruple by-pass six years ago. He's tired . . . so tired.
They had suggested three possible options but he has decided to go with hospice.
We just found out about this July 5 and sad to say - his condition has worsened a great deal since then and I think a lot of it is due to his mental state.
I don't know how much I'll be posting here but I have been reading here quite a bit the last few days and I'm really appreciative of the fact that this site exists. Thank you.
I'm going back there to help out this week and won't have computer access but I wish all of you and your family members well.
I'm not sure what these next few months will be like. To be perfectly honest, I'm afraid because I've never been in the caregiver role before. I'm aggravated with myself for feeling so uneasy and fearful and I'm hoping I can pull myself together to be a good support person for both of my parents during this time.
Thanks again for this site.

The Kohetsu 210mm is a true laser.....very thin. As I stated above, I would pick based on the profile, geometry, etc. before deciding based on the fact that one uses AS and the other white #1. BTW, sharpness OOTB would be a lot further down my decision list than any other criteria talked about here.

TWO high flying positions at district councils in Worcestershire could become one in a move that is likely to see a saving of more than £100,000.
The savings will be made by Wychavon District Council and Malvern Hills District Council, which have begun talks about the possibility of a joint Chief Executive.
Informal discussions between leaders of both councils, councillor Paul Middlebrough for Wychavon and Cllr David Hughes at Malvern, have started to explore the merits of a shared arrangement.
Currently Jack Hegarty holds the role at Wychavon, which sees him head the council's paid service, be the principal policy advisor, lead and direct the workforce of 220 full time staff and hold a net budget of £11 million. He is paid between £101,611 to £107,004 and has a car allowance.
Over in Malvern Chris Bocock holds the equivalent role, is paid between £100,000 and £104 999 and has a car allowance of £6,260 and variable electoral fees.
Cllr Middlebrough, said: "We have a long history of working together and sharing a significant number of services already, so these discussions feel like a logical step in the right direction."
The councils worked closely together during the creation of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and are both dominated by Conservative members.
A joint managing director would cement the relationship and allow both councils, which have targets for further cost savings in the coming years, as part of wider reductions in public spending, contribute significantly to those savings.
Cllr Hughes added: "We have been talking to colleagues in other councils where there are similar arrangements.
"This demonstrated to us that it is worth consideration by our respective councils and we are preparing proposals for discussion and debate.
"Also we have been encouraged by comments from the Local Government Minister, Brandon Lewis."
Officers and members at both councils have been informed of the discussions.
Whilst there are no details available at this early stage, a guarantee that each council will keep its independent identity has been confirmed.

GU10 All Stars Top-Notch at Top Gun
Pull date:
Sun, 07/03/2011
The GU10 All-Star team soared to victory at the prestigious Top Gun tournament, held over Memorial Day weekend in Mira Mesa, CA. Under the command of dedicated coaches Adam "Wolfman" Jensen and Stephen "Cougar" Cooper, the best of the best proved to be no match for the well-oiled Santa Monica squad who finished their season with a record of 35 wins, 6 losses, and 2 ties. Over the course of the 3-day tournament, they earned 5 shutout victories, allowed just 4 goals, and saw goals scored by all 6 of the players in regular rotation at midfield and forward -- a true testament to the value of teamwork.
They opened with 2 wins on Saturday against the Bandits from Phoenix, AZ and the Angelz Gone Bad from Murrieta/Temecula, earning 10 points in each game with 3-0 wins over both teams. Goalie Scottie "Ice Man" Meek was as unflappable as ever, assisted in the backfield as usual by the power of Jordan "Goose" Jensen and the speed of McKenna "Jester" Pringle. Up front, shots by Maya "Maverick" Cooper, Giulia "Chipper" Trevellin, Maisey "Slider" McRae, and Alison "Hollywood" Brown all landed in the opposing net. On Sunday, they faced the Maroon Madness first, a home-town team from Kearny Mesa, and it was Alexis "Merlin" Moran's turn to work a little of her magic -- she scored two goals in the 1st quarter, and propelled the team to a decisive 8-0 victory.
By Sunday afternoon, the team sat atop the leader board with a perfect 30 points, but the Chino Hills All-Stars were just a point behind, having also bested the other three teams in the group while giving up just one goal. They took advantage of a surprisingly sluggish Santa Monica team in game 4, winning 4-0, to leap-frog into first place in the bracket, but both teams advanced to the medal round.
In the semi-finals on Monday, Santa Monica was paired with the first-place team in the opposing bracket while Chino Hills played the second-place team. Lucia "Stinger" Saignac-Perez scored first for Santa Monica, in what was to be a 2-0 win over the Chaos from Lakewood/Bellflower. Yet another shut-out by Chino Hills over the North Torrance Storm, meant that Santa Monica would have a chance to avenge their earlier loss -- the third time in tournament play that they would face a team from their own bracket in the championship game.
Santa Monica took off early and shocked the confident Chino Hills team with three unanswered goals in the first quarter. Abbie "Viper" Grossman was once again instrumental in the team's success, shadowing key players and effectively disrupting the opponent's game plan. After a fourth goal in the second half, Santa Monica earned their "wings of gold" and were crowned champions.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/11/2012 (1731 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A local volunteer dog-rescue group that had dozens of boxes of supplies stolen has more than recouped its losses, thanks to the generous donations of many Winnipeggers.
Jill Britton, a volunteer with Hull's Haven Border Collie Rescue, said since the Free Press reported the theft Sunday, the organization has received an outpouring of donations that more than makes up for what was stolen.
"We've been getting donations from so many different sources. We've gotten tons from Winnipeggers, but elsewhere, too. We got some from Texas, California, Ontario, Alberta. We're actually going to be able to accomplish more than we could have initially accomplished," Britton said.
Forty-four boxes of supplies were stolen from behind Britton's Windsor Park home Tuesday evening. The supplies were to be sent to Norway House Animal Rescue Network, an organization that cares for and finds homes for stray dogs in the northern Manitoba community.
As many of these communities have an overpopulation of stray dogs and few veterinary services, many dogs are shot as a method of animal control.
After the boxes full of food, blankets and cleaning supplies were stolen, Britton worried that many dogs brought to Norway House would die. She planned to transport the supplies Dec. 7.
But thanks to what she calls the "mind-bogglingly awesome support" following the theft, Britton will be travelling to Norway House with much more than just dry food and blankets.
"We're working with our vet to supply us with medical supplies and vaccinations that we would not have originally been able to afford to get. So the long-term benefits of that will be amazing," Britton said. "We might be able to do some preventative care up there so that dogs either don't get sick or they don't get too sick, so they won't have to be emergency-flown into Winnipeg, which is upwards of $240 a dog."
Britton said she hopes her story will inspire new legislation to protect stray dogs and bring more support to organizations such as Hull's Haven and Norway House.
"This has created so much awareness. The right people are starting to ask the right questions, which is fantastic. It's going to be able to hopefully open a lot of doors," she said.

Recipe :: Roasted Baby Artichokes
1-2 pounds of baby artichokes
1 lemon
sea salt & pepper
olive oil
Only buy very fresh artichokes, best when they are in season. To clean artichokes; remove outer tough leaves, using a peeler clean the stem if needed and cut in half. To keep artichokes a vibrant green color place in a water bath with lemon juice. Dry and place artichokes on a sheet pan. I find that the smaller artichokes dont have the spiky hairy center the way the larger ones do. So I didn't remove the center and just roasted them whole. If there seems to be that fuzzy center use a small spoon to scoop it out before baking. Drizzle artichokes with a little olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Place in a preheated 400 degree oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes until tender, turning a few times to ensure even cooking. In a small bowl add the zest of one lemon, the juice of half and drizzle in olive oil. Season with a little salt. When artichokes are finished, leave to cool. Plate the artichokes and drizzle the vinaigrette, and top with shaved parmesan. The addition of fresh herbs is nice.

$22000 for 700mb? And I thought AT&T's prices were outrageous!
The cost is always higher when your out of your home country due to the signal passing through possibly several carriers. When I go to Jamaica I just buy a sim card from one of their service providers like Lime. Much cheaper and easier. I also had a friend who took a cruise that was within sight of the US shore so he thought he was connected to land based towers from his provider. What he neglected to remember that the ship has their own ship-wide service that he was connected to by default. He received a $550 bill for his usage. He tried to fight it but it was disclosed prior to leaving in the literature. Live & learn I guess.
$31.43 per mega byte????? OH MY GOD!! That is INSANE! And this is why we don't give children electronics.
I don't get why parents don't just teach their children the cost of these things... Just teach them how expensive it is, and if they neglect to care, take the phone or SIM card away. I would bet this kid had no punishment for this.
I was also surprised by receiving a $7,000 bill for 2 days of roaming.
I have to go to Honduras every month and a half on business for the past 5 years.
My carrier is Movistar and there had never been any roaming in Honduras.
All of a sudden after getting back from a 2 day trip I was greeted with a $7,000 roaming bill.
Turns out all of a sudden now there is roaming in Honduras which I was never made aware of or informed in any way.
I did not use my phone at all but my phone was checking emails and receiving notifications automatially. So even while I was sleeping phone was running up the roaming bill.
Luckily I have a friend who works at Movistar and finally settled the bill for $250.
Now, Movistar sends an sms whenever you're roaming to let you know of unintentional charges.
Yeah, European networks send you a message when you're roaming to let you know about the data and call charges. All you need to do is ensure your data roaming is turned off when make it impossible for your phone to use cellular data outside your home network. Simple
So the father says to his son: "Son, it's time you got a job. That phone is in your name, and you'll be working for two years to pay that off."

Mon 16th May BOWLS ENGLAND MENS TOP CLUB COMPETITION WEST EALING 5 v ASHFORD 0 Ashford were knocked out by West Ealing as in the same round last year. West Ealing were too strong despite Ashfords valiant attempt.
Tue 17th May FORDBRIDGE MIXED LEAGUE WOODTHORPE 6pts v ASHFORD 4pts This was a closely fought match which was only decided by the last bowl to be played. At six ends Woodthorpe had a 4 shot lead. Ashford recovered and on the twelfth end had got themselves a 5 shot advantage. Unfortunately for Ashford things went a bit pear-shaped after that as Woodthorpe took control of the match. Ashford were clinging on to their lead, but on the eighteenth end Woodthorpe won the shots to sneak ahead 61 - 64 overall and claim the 2 extra points. Ashfords top scorers were Sid Brittin, Carol Stedman and Ian Ford with their 23 - 10 win.
Wed 18th May BOWLS ENGLAND MENS TWO FOURS COMPETITION ASHFORD 45 v BISHOP DUPPAS 17 Ashford played really well against Bishop Duppas to win their first round match. It was soon obvious that Ashford were in good form as they won shots easily and Bishop Duppas could only score the odd single shot here and there. Duppas had no chance as Ashford piled on the shots and put the game well beyond their reach.
Fri 20th May M.C.W.B.A. FOURS COMPETITION The Ashford Ladies began pretty well with two of their three entries being successful at the first stage of the competition. They now play N.P.L and Bishop Duppas in the next round.
Sat 21st May MIXED FRIENDLY MATCH BA CONCORDE 102 v ASHFORD 83 Concorde overpowered Ashford to win by 19 shots.

ALA and Council Committee Intern Guidelines
The internship program began its two-year trial period in 1988. This program, initiated by the ALA Membership Committee*, was designed to provide an avenue for interested members to become more easily involved in ALA activities and to introduce new people and ideas to ALA committee discussions and decision-making. Since that time, the program has evolved and become a valued link for members with less ALA experience to become familiar with the governance of the Association. The hope is that the experience gained by the interns will aid their official appointment on an association committee, and provide them with valuable association leadership experience.
These guidelines are designed to: (1) clarify the role of the intern on the committee and the process by which an intern is appointed; and (2) suggest responsibilities for intern appointments, such as duties on the committee, voting status, etc.
What is the ALA Intern Program? The ALA Intern Program provides an opportunity for newer library workers to become familiar with ALA structure, in particular its committees; to network with peers and library leaders from around the country; and to participate in a service learning activity. The ALA Intern Program offers the possibility to connect, to learn, to succeed, to advance, and to lead.
Who can be appointed as an intern? The Intern Program is open to any ALA member who has never been appointed to a position on a Committee of the Association or a Committee of Council, nor held an elected office within the American Library Association or any unit of the Association (including its Divisions, Round Tables, etc.). Whenever possible, the President-Elect should appoint recent or previously less involved members as an intern to provide them with an opportunity to become more involved in the work and organization of ALA.
Who appoints interns? Interns are appointed by the ALA President-Elect. The President –Elect solicits suggestions from throughout the association as part of the overall committee volunteer and appointment process. Names of possible interns can also be submitted to the ALA President-Elect by individuals, committee chairs, and others.
Which committees can have interns? ALA and Council committees are assigned up to two interns each with alternating terms. The intern positions are considered additional membership slots in the committee.
Terms of appointment. Each intern serves for a period of two years. After a two-year period, the intern should not be appointed to another ALA committee as an intern. Successful interns should be considered by the ALA President-Elect as candidates for appointment as members of an ALA committee. Service as an intern is not counted in accumulating the four years of maximum consecutive served on a committee.
Duties. The committee chair will determine the most appropriate duties for the intern on a specific committee, depending in large part on the nature of the work of a particular committee. The primary duty should be, however, to become as knowledgeable of ALA processes as possible, such as how to submit a resolution, how to make a report to ALA Council or other Board, as well as to learn about the inner workings of the Association, its Divisions, its Round Tables, and its Committees. Some suggestions for intern duties include:
- Help with planning and presenting programs and events.
- Perform administrative duties to facilitate committee/association processes.
- Assist the ALA staff liaison and/or the committee chair in posting announcements to ALA Connect and general committee correspondence.
- Write the committee report, with input from committee chair.
All interns are expected to participate in the work of the committee to which they are appointed.
Voting. Interns are not considered to be regularly appointed members of the committee, but are eligible to vote.
Travel. If the committee meets face to face outside of the Midwinter Meeting and the Annual Conference, the committee will determine if the intern should attend the meeting, and if funding for travel is available.
Attendance at Meetings. Interns are expected to participate in all virtual and in-person committee meetings.
* During the 2009 Midwinter Meeting, Council voted to transfer responsibility for the program from the Membership Committee to the Training, Orientation & Leadership Development (TOLD) Committee.
**As amended by the ALA Council, Monday, June 27, 2011

The pineapple upside down cake was such a success Sunday, I had to follow it up with another dessert. Wasn't sure what it would be till I stumbled on this recipe and I knew I had to make it.
I've been holding out on using the Komodo Sustainable Coconut Charcoal waiting for the perfect cook and it hit me yesterday....dessert would be perfect!!
I broke up about 7 pieces into 3 pieces each to top off my remaining charcoal
Glad I did, because it seem like only the ends would really catch. What surprised me was that it did not spark...AT ALL!! And it gave off a sweet, sugary smell as it burned.
I whipped up the cookie dough and pressed it down into a 10" CI skillet and put it on the Egg at 375ish.
About 40 minutes later it was done.
Gotta have some Blue Bell with that
Oh man....this stuff was soooo good! I could have just eaten that for dinner (and might have since Mrs. G was out of town.) Edges had a nice bite to them and the center was moist and chewy. Paired with some ice cream. Man oh man was that good.
And after an almost 4 hour long burn, this was what was left.
I'm impressed with this charcoal on first use. need to use it some more, but I like it.

Instead of, Learn the Tools, Perhaps, Discover the Poetry Within
Adobe, in their creative anthem, tell us that creativity is no longer an elective, it's our future. I absolutely agree. They exhort us to learn the tools. Fair enough, that is one approach. I have had students who were software mechanics. They could not wait to discover a new technique, a new tool, a new method. These students were the masters of the menus and buttons. They were not necessarily more creative, but they were technically ahead. However, there is another approach.
Instead of learn the tools, I would suggest, discover the poetry within.
Several years ago I created a philosophy which has guided my teaching on a daily basis… Don't teach theory, teach what you can do with it. We could apply that philosophy to this situation by focussing first on expression and then on learning the tools that would allow that expression to see the light of day. Expression first, tools second.
This semester I have a grade eleven class, all beginners, the majority of whom are struggling with school. School really is not their favourite thing. But – something interesting is happening. These students are showing up regularly (other teachers are just a little jealous). They are working. They are asking questions that only come from people trying to do better, to learn more, to express their inner visions. Granted, these inner visions are pretty limited right now. They are the seeds from which other, more complex and interesting ideas, will grow. At the start of the class I focussed on showing them what was possible. I then taught (and continue to teach) the tools that were and will be required. Expression first, tools second. This way works because it puts the students first. Motivation has to come from within, and I would suggest that feeding their inner visions feeds this process most of all.
I am not a software mechanic. I am and always will be, an artist. Opening doors to richer, more articulate self expression is what I try to do for my students every day. Adobe's tools are and have always been, incredibly powerful, reliable and yes, complex. We need complex to create what we see in our inner visions. These are rich visions – they need and deserve this level of tools. But perhaps it is time for Adobe to embrace this broader perspective of expression first, tools second, one in the service of the other. I think this new message around creativity is an excellent start. Can we take it one step further? Discover the poetry within – the software itself, the incredible projects created by that software, and within the people using the software. If we want to encourage more people, new people, to explore and master this digital universe, perhaps we should start by reaching out to feed their inner visions. Expression first, tools second.

Roundup: UF soccer kicks Gophers
Published: Friday, September 13, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 14, 2013 at 1:02 a.m.
A pair of second-half goals from freshman Savannah Jordan gave the No. 9 Florida soccer team a 2-0 win Friday over previously undefeated Minnesota at the James G. Pressly Stadium.
After a scoreless opening half, Jordan needed just two minutes and a tick to put the Gators up 2-0. The first goal started when junior Lauren Silver, from in the Florida (6-1) half, sent the ball to just above the UM box. Then it was a foot race between Jordan and a Gopher defender. Jordan won control and sent the ball to the far post corner just before a second UM defender looked to end the play. Then passes from sophomore Lindsey Cooper to senior Maggie Rodgers resulted in Jordan receiving the ball inside the right side of the box. The shot she took to the far post was touched by the diving Gopher goalkeeper Tarah Hobbs, but the momentum of Jordan's right-footed shot carried it on where it kicked off the far post into the goal at 65:07.
NOTES: Just seven matches into her Gator career and Jordan now has three multi-goal matches. She is the first Gator to have three multi-goal matches through a season's first seven matches. She opened 2013 with a pair of goals versus Florida Gulf Coast and then posted a hat-trick versus Oregon State. ... Only one other Gator has scored eight goals through a season's opening seven matches – Danielle Fotopoulos in 1998. ... Minnesota fell to 6-1.
Women's tennis: The Gators won all four singles matches they played and went 3-1 in doubles action on the opening day of the Duke Fab Four Invite held at the Cary (N.C.) Tennis Center.
Olivia Janowicz, Kourtney Keegan, Sofie Oyen and Belinda Woolcock won their respective singles matches in the first event of the season, while the doubles team of Oyen and Woolcock won two rounds to reach the final of the BLACK draw that will be played today.
Men's golf: In a windy day at the 8th Olympia Fields/Fighting Illini Invitational, No. 18 UF fell victim to the conditions and ended first round play in15th place, shooting 28-over as a team.

I was watching something last week and they were talking about meatballs. How just about every culture in the world has some form of meatball. Got me to thinking about trying to come up with a Buffalo Chicken Meatball. It wasn't a great leap to decide to make it into a slider. I looked around the net and found out Buffalo chicken meatballs were not an original idea (I was pretty sure I wouldn't have been the first to come up with the idea). So I printed out a few different recipes to compare and came up with my own version. Once I got to the store, I found out they didn't have any ground chicken. It was late and I didn't want to grind my own, so it came down to a decision...try them with turkey or abandon the whole idea for now. I went with the turkey. 85/15 to be exact.
Rolled the meatballs up and after letting the chill for 30 minutes, they went onto the Egg at 400F.
Cooked them for about 20 minutes, rotating them a bit to make sure they cooked evenly. Coming off the Egg, but not quite done.
A quick dip in some Buffalo sauce to coat.
And then all plated up with a dollop of bleu cheese sauce.
I was really quite surprised with these. I was a bit worried that they would be dry and bland, but they were anything but. I'll be making these again for sure, but I think next time, I'm going to add some of the Buffalo sauce to the meatball mixture to give it even more of a kick.

DELAWARE, Ohio (AP) -- Police say a pickup truck driver has been shot following a road rage incident with a motorcyclist that lasted at least 14 miles.
Interim Delaware Police Chief Bruce Pijanowski says the truck driver has been flown to a hospital in Columbus for treatment, but is expected to live.
Pijanowski tells The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/OyqB4X ) that police don't know what started the dispute between the motorists on Sunday afternoon in Union County northwest of Dublin. But he says they ended up near an Auto Zone store in Delaware where the motorcyclist pointed a gun at the pickup truck driver and fired it.
The motorcyclist was taken into custody at the scene but no charges have been filed. Police are still investigating the shooting.

I have a site being developed, in aspx / dot net, there a few developers, the lead programmer insists on "code reviews" and they take a long time. What are they?What is "code review"?
If other developers test along the way and debug their code, and it works fine on one anothers machines and fulfills the functionality required then what is the role of "code review"?
Thank you in advance for any help
This pretty much sums it up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_review
It's quite literally a review of the code that has been written. Usually in Software Development projects the Lead or Principal Developer will want to conduct code reviews, usually using things like Version Control Pull Requests. The actual process of reviewing code is of course down to the whoever is the reviewer, maybe they are looking for something specific, or they have a general set of rules and standards that the code needs to live up to. If it's taking a long time then the process is probably not very good, or the chunks up for review are simply too large - I find that the best code review is on small additions / patches of recent work that is fresh in the memory of the reviewer (who is likely to have been part in the system architecture planning).
As for just accepting that the code runs on the developers machine, the reviewer may be looking at solution quality, e.g. just because it works does not mean that the solutions is good and optimal. Furthermore the reviewer may have experience regarding things that may or may not work on different systems and setups and therefore the fact that it works on the developers machine is not enough.
In short, the process of Code Review is an individual process that is important, but if it's taking so long that it significantly slows down development then the process may be flawed or the reviewer does not have the adequate experience to quickly spot whether or not an implementation is "good enough" to pass the review.
Code review is the best way to catch bugs before code goes into production. It also helps developers share knowledge between each other, unify coding styles, and
There are bugs automated tests won't be able to find. Additionally, regular code review can help developers think of better ways to solve problems.
Code review can take a while, sure, but the payoff is absolutely worth it.
Code review also ensures that everyone is following the same in house standards with the code that they write. This will cover lots of things that do not make any difference to whether the code works or not such as indentation. It basically ensures that everyone's code is written the same way so that everyone can maintain all the code as if they were the sole programmer responsible for writing it.
On top of what has been mentioned code reviews are wonderful opportunity for you to learn from the senior developers -- there is a lot more than meeting the functional requirements to software development.
I'm currently in a dev team where Code Review is essential. Previous jobs, I did code review during meetings or other type of face-to-face meetings. Now, there are plenty of tools to perform code review where a developer can do it anytime. The cons is that un-reviewed code must be checked in. After that other developers can start looking at your changes. If it's to a point that it needs a re-write up then all you need to do is rollback the check-ins. I really do like code review since other catch my stupid mistakes but I don't get why we don't code review our techlead/architect codes..just seems a bit unfair.
In a perfect world the tech leads / architects are reviewing each other.
It is a phrase in the software development process in which the authors of code and perhaps quality assurance mentors get together to review code. Code review is systematic examination of computer source code.
Code review fall into three main categories: (1) pair programming, (2) formal code review and (3) lightweight code review..

The highest-ranking firefighter to survive the World Trade Center collapse and the last fireman to escape the devastation, Richard "Pitch" Picciotto, was on a stairwell between the sixth and seventh floors of the North Tower when it collapsed on Sept. 11, 2001.
Picciotto is coming to Phoenix to speak at Valley Forward Association's 42nd Annual Lunch on Dec. 9, 2011, and will provide an outspoken account of that indelible day.
His inspirational presentation to some 500 business and community leaders in attendance will address how to lead effectively and achieve optimal teamwork to help organizations achieve their goals; the training, preparedness, risk management and decision-making know-how necessary to tackle any problem; and how hope and positivity can emerge out of tragedy and adversity.
An FDNY battalion commander, his is the harrowing true story of an American hero, a man who thought nothing of himself and gave nearly everything for others during one of our nation's darkest hours. Picciotto will share the positives that can emanate from a major disaster.
Picciotto's book, Last Man Down, is a tribute to the 343 firefighters and 2,400 civilians who lay dead in the rubble that surrounded him on that day. Moreover, it is a heartfelt remembrance of a day of infamy and profound humanity. The book was an immediate New York Times bestseller upon its release in May 2002. He will personally autograph copies of his book for luncheon attendees.
Sept. 11 demonstrated the power of the human spirit, revealing a nation united and tenacious, saddened but resilient. Life has carried on even in the face of unthinkable loss. We may never understand the whys of what happened, but we can use our collective energy to create a stronger America.

To make it better, you might have to make it worse. The crack is very thin and you will likely have a hard time getting the mixture in it. Use a sharp tool (x-acto knife) to make a vee channel on both sides -- you might have to go almost half way through from each side, then put the mixture in. Not too big of a channel, but big enough to get the mixture completely in with no trapped air space. That will make sure it goes into the whole crack, not just the surface. Unless you get the full crack filled with mixture, it will crack during firing.

Well, I did it.
Let's see how it fires when it does!
Thank you guys so much for all the suggestions!

Yes. soak in water overnight. Squeeze the water out of it. And start mixing your spooze. You may have to add a little vinegar to stir it up.
I try to avoid adding any type of water into the mix. So instead of soaking the tissue in water, I soak it in the vinegar, that will go in the mix anyway.
The vinegar alone softens the paper up quite well, and a quick mix with an immersion blender creates a nice mush. Then I mix in the dried clay, syrup, and a teaspoon or so of hydrogen peroxide, to keep the bacteria at bay. I've kept some of the mixture over the summer, in a sealed container, and it didn't smell a bit when I came back. It did grow a bit of mold, that I just scooped off.
I'm a big fan of this stuff. It works far better than the "Ceramic Enhancer" I mentioned earlier in this thread. It's also a whole lot cheaper...

Does anyone use magic water/magic mud/paper-vinegar-sodium silicate etc. concoctions as a matter of course when joining slabs? I mostly see it suggested for repairs or specific attachments, but any reason (besides hassle and expense) not to just use it for all joining? Seems like it would be extra insurance even when constructing a simple box with moist clay - why not?

yes, there is a recipe for "score no more" in my glaze book. will dig it out. if you use more than one clay, mix each one separately and use the right one for each clay. dry powdered gum arabic from Georgie's supply
Score no more attributed to pat horsley
100 grams dry clay body
2 grams dry gum arabic
2 grams custer feldspar
2 grams bentonite
mix dry ingredients thoroughly. add HOT water, mix and let it sit for awhile, maybe overnight. should be like peanut butter consistency, if too wet let evaporate or remove excess water.
add 1/4 teaspoon sodium silicate
pinch of epsom salts

Would this work on a piece that completely broke off? I was making a bead rack/tree. I let it dry very slowly, but when I moved it to the kiln room to be bisque fired, I bumped it on the shelf and a small triangle that will hold the wire broke off. I saved it and was going to try to repair it another time. I spritzed the rack with a mist of water, wrapped up inside plastic, spritzed the outside of the bag with water, put another bag on, and then did the same and added a third bag. I figured that would keep it safe until I could read about what to do.
I really like the shape and design on this rack but I am thinking I should just make a new one. But if this would work WOW. I would love it.
Posted 17 March 2016 - 02:35 PM
I am glad I saw this thread, I'd thought about trying a commercial greenware mender but since the pieces I have are just rim chips this sounds more practical...usually I just scrap broken pieces, but I have two that I invested 4+ hours each in carving, so I'll see if this works for porcelain since I've got nothing to lose since right now the effort is for naught anyway!
Posted 17 March 2016 - 05:25 PM
please let us know. the original poster promised but there is nothing here about results. i would hate to pass on a recipe that does not work. i know that score no more works because Jan Richardson uses it on her enormous stoneware slab boat sculptures and on her thin paperclay bowls that are almost translucent.
Posted 17 March 2016 - 08:54 PM
This mixture was also used to successfully fill in a small crack at the bottom of a bowl.

What's the worst federal agency for hiring veterans? Try Congress.
Despite numerous efforts by lawmakers in recent years to spur veterans employment in the private sector, few congressional offices have followed suit. A new survey estimates that fewer than 180 veterans are employed as Capitol Hill staff, a mere 3 percent of the 6,000-plus employees there.
For comparison, in fiscal 2012 nearly half of all Defense Department employees were veterans. One in three Veterans Affairs and Transportation Department workers were veterans that year, and the Education Department — one of the lowest veteran hiring rates among federal agencies — had just under 10 percent.
Now, a network of veterans working in Congress is hoping to change that.
HillVets, formed less than a year ago to connect and assist former military personnel working in the legislative branch, this month announced plans to double the number of veterans in those jobs by the start of the next legislative session, in January 2016.
On Tuesday, Reps. Mike Thompson, D-Calif., and Don Young, R-Alaska, will announce the formation of a new Veterans Congressional Fellowship Caucus, with a mission to increase the number of veterans working on Capitol Hill. That will include a new congressional fellowship program for veterans, which will accept its first participants this summer.
Abigail Gage, director of outreach for HillVets and an Army National Guard captain, said getting each of the 535 members of Congress to hire just one veteran would almost triple the current total.
"We're hoping we can reach out and help them understand the skill sets that veterans can bring to an office," she said. "I think a lot of people don't know how much research and writing some members of the military do."
Part of the problem may be the demographics of Congress itself.
The current session opened with 108 lawmakers with military experience, roughly 20 percent of the two chambers. That number has dropped steadily since the 1970s, when more than 70 percent of members were veterans.
Many of the lawmakers who have hired veterans as staffers in the HillVets survey sit on the Armed Services and Veterans' Affairs committees, giving them added incentive to add employees with military knowledge.
But Gage said another issue is that until her organization launched last year, veterans had no organized network to help lobby for those jobs.
Part of the HillVets effort is résumé reviews, to help show qualified veterans how to best market their skills toward legislative jobs and help market those candidates to colleagues on Capitol Hill.
Ian Staples, an Army Reserve captain who recently landed a job with Rep. William Enyart, D-Ill., said having that support was invaluable in his job search.
He returned from an Afghanistan deployment in January, and had some experience working on political campaigns but few contacts among elected officials' offices. But he was able to land interviews within weeks of contacting HillVets.
"Having some kind of network is absolutely critical," he said.
Gage said already a number of other qualified veterans have reached out to the organization in recent weeks.
"These are people who appreciate long hours and hard work," she said. "They have first-hand experience with the claims backlog, deployments, issues like the integration of women into combat roles. And almost every congressional district has a VA facility.
"So, they're valuable assets. But we're not seeing a lot of veterans in those discussions right now."

Your gift to help a hardworking entrepreneur will double in impact thanks to a generous World Vision partner.
That is from Cambodia. She has 4 children. She needs a loan of $350 to expand her business and hire a worker .
That is from Cambodia. She has 4 children. She needs a loan of $350 to expand her business and hire a worker .
That is the mother of four children. She grows cassava and cashew nuts, she also raises a few pigs.
That wants to expand her buisness and hopefully hire another worker to speed up the plowing and planting process and therefore increase her crop production.
With a loan from World Vision That would be able her to expand her business by increasing the amount of cultivated land used for growing cassavas and cashews. She also plans to incease the number of pigs she raises. With an increase in income, she will be able to invest more money into her buiness, buy more food for her family and be able to send her children to school.
The Agriculture business sector covers all farming and livestock activities. Some entrepreneurs request loans to help in securing supplies and equipment. Others want to buy more animals to breed or purchase feed and medicines. The majority of our loan clients live in rural communities where agriculture is already understood as a business model. It is for this reason that approximately 50% of our loans are in the agricultural sector.
In Cambodia's Prasath Ballang district, social services, infrastructure, and markets are poorly constructed or non-existent. Home to 8,000 families, nearly 95 percent of the residents rely on farming to meet their needs. Others are engaged in crafts or small business. Food shortages occur throughout the year.
World Vision established the Prasath Ballang Area Development Program in 1994. Accomplishments include helping families establish home gardens; teaching farmers new agricultural methods; educating residents on malaria prevention; providing scholarships to students to continue their education; and constructing wells and latrines. These changes have helped the Cambodian people to begin making improvements in their lives.
To help increase household productivity and income, World Vision seeks to provide small business loans for the benefit of poor entrepreneurs. The World Vision-affiliated VisionFund Cambodia microfinance institution does things like educate entrepreneurs about microfinance, disburse loans, and manage repayments. With these loans, borrowers are empowered to expand farming, or start and expand small businesses to generate income. As borrowers earn more money, they can provide their children with nutritious food and an education.
Thank you for supporting a small business loan for That He to expand her farming and livestock business. After receiving the loan from World Vision, she invested the $350 to expand her business and hire a farm worker.
That has been repaying her loan on time with her new profits. She makes weekly payments of $7 .
In addition to repaying her loan, That is using additional income to purchase food for the animals, fertilizer, as well as to purchase food for her family.
That's 4 children continue to study in school.
Thank you for supporting That and World Vision Micro!
Thank you for supporting the small loan for That He to improve her farming and livestock business. She invested her loan of $350 to expand her business and to hire a farm worker.
That has now repaid her loan in full. In addition to repaying her loan, That has used her additional income to expand her current business and purchase needed equipment.
That's four children continue to study in school.
The loan That received helped her business expand and the profits she is earning is creating lasting improvements in her life. In the future, That hopes to take out another loan and purchase more livestock.
Thank you for your support of That and World Vision Micro. These funds are now being recycled to support another eager entrepreneur in the same community.

And here is my humble meal for the weekend:
I started with whole wings
Separated the three parts of the wings
I made the brine earlier in the day and chilled it. The Brine was made of water, chicken stock, apple juice, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, soy sauce, Buffalo wing sauce, garlic, cayenne pepper, salt, brown sugar and other spices.
Soaked the wings over night
Here is how I know the brining process was successful
The liquid line dropped down about an inch, evident by the residue line from where it was the night before. That tells me how much liquid has been absorbed. I took the picture prior to removing the container out of the refrigerator so I wouldn't disturb the residue line. My wife thought I went crazy when she saw my head inside the fridge taking pix
Pulled the chicken out of the brine and placed them on a rack to drain. Left them in the fridge for 6 hours to dry out. I then applied some BBQ rub
Fried up the smoker using the SFB at 300 degrees and added a second grate using foil wrapped bricks to expand my cooking area.
Also made loaded potatoes to go with the wings
Wings smoking away
Dinner is served
The hot sauce flavor was prominent in the wings, and really didn't need additional sauce, but I served some on the side as an option. I would definitely use this brine again, and I may try on Turkey next time.

Fairmount Line Improvements
The Fairmount Corridor Commuter Rail Line currently runs from South Station south through the Boston neighborhoods of Dorchester, Roxbury, Mattapan and terminates in Readville section of Hyde Park. It consists of approximately 9.2 miles of track, four stations (Uphams Corner, Morton Street, Fairmount, and Readville) and forty-one bridges. It is the only Commuter Rail Branch that exclusively serves the City of Boston and MBTA's Urban Core.
In October of 2002, a Feasibility Study was performed to identify a combination of existing infrastructure upgrades needed to maintain a "State of Good Repair" on the Fairmount Line.
The identified upgrades included the rehabilitation of two (2) existing stations located at Uphams Corner and Morton Street; the reconstruction of six (6) bridges located at Columbia Road, Quincy Street, Massachusetts Avenue, Talbot Avenue, Woodrow Avenue, and Neponset River; the new construction of a track interlocking switching system; upgrades to the existing signal system; and the de-leading, painting, and minor repair work to the bridges at East Cottage Street, Dudley Street, Norfolk Street, and Geneva Avenue.
The Feasibility Study also identified certain elements that would significantly increase ridership and revenues and potentially alleviate the issue of overcrowded buses along the Fairmount Corridor. These elements include the construction of four (4) new commuter rail stations strategically located at Four Corners (between the Washington Street and Geneva Avenue Bridges), Talbot Avenue (North of the Talbot Avenue Bridge), Newmarket (North of the Massachusetts Avenue Bridge and adjacent to the now South Bay Shopping Center), and Blue Hill Avenue (between the Blue Hill Avenue and Cummins Highway Bridges). The station locations were chosen to provide a higher quality level of bus service and to provide an alternative mode of transportation in "walk-to" stations for neighborhood residents along the corridor.
Renderings and drawings were provided by Edwards and Kelcey.

Though nearly 70 percent of the state remains in drought, crops in many areas are doing well thanks to rains over the last month, according to reports from Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service personnel and the U.S. Drought Monitor.
Many AgriLife Extension county agents reported good or even excellent crop conditions, but the consensus was that more rain was needed soon to maintain growth and meet yield expectations.
"We've basically had a lot of good rain in areas that had been particularly hard hit by drought," said Dr. John Nielsen-Gammon, state climatologist, College Station. "But it takes a lot more than that to actually get them out of drought completely."
Download or preview a two-minute MP3 audio version of this report
July tends to be the driest month for most of the state, he said, and currently there are no long-range forecasts predicting anything much different this year.
"For the time being, it looks like the best chances of (summer) rain are going to be in the north and northwest, which means the Panhandle may get some more relief," he said.
But what's needed to give real drought relief is enough rain to recharge the subsoil moisture profile and refill reservoirs and lakes, Nielsen-Gammon said. And the best chances of that come from an El Niño this fall.
El Niño refers to warmer-than-average ocean water temperatures off the Pacific coast of South America, he said. A moderate to strong El Niño usually means more moisture to parts of the Southwest and Southeast during the late fall and winter. El Niño, translates as "The Boy Child," because it peaks about the time of Christmas.
In early May, NASA predicted a very strong El Niño, Nielsen-Gammon said. NASA based the prediction on satellite images showing patterns of temperature and ocean height that were similar to those of May 1997, a year of one of the strongest El Niño oscillations of the 20th century.
"But the recent computer model forecasts are not so enthusiastic," Nielsen-Gammon said. "More likely, we'll end up with a weak to moderately strong El Niño."
This means much of Texas could still have a wetter than normal late fall and winter, just not as wet as it might be with a very strong El Niño, he said.
More information on the current Texas drought and wildfire alerts can be found on the AgriLife Extension Agricultural Drought Task Force website at http://agrilife.tamu.edu/drought/ .

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, yet that's exactly what BlackBerry ( BBRY) CEO Thorsten Heins is doing. In an interview with Australian Financial Review, Heins said that Apple's ( AAPL) iPhone isn't the top of the line phone anymore, and that competitors such as BlackBerry are passing it by. "History repeats itself again I guess ... the rate of innovation is so high in our industry that if you don't innovate at that speed you can be replaced pretty quickly," Heins said during the interview. "The user interface on the iPhone, with all due respect for what this invention was all about, is now five years old." If the user interface is old, then why have Apple's competitors, including Samsung, worked so hard to make their user interface look a lot like iOS? That patent lawsuit over the summer between Apple and Samsung (which Apple won by the way), was in part about user interface. Innovation is not about stealing competitors' ideas; it's about making your own product, and letting the customer decide who wins.
Heins also cited the fact that the iPhone doesn't allow you to run multiple apps at once, which the BlackBerry 10 does, as well as other smartphones running Google's ( GOOG) Android. The theory that the iPhone doesn't allow you to run multiple apps at the same time isn't exactly true. Users can listen to Pandora ( P) while reading Twitter, Facebook, or any number of apps. The ability to run multiple apps at the same time is limited, but it's not entirely 100% accurate. Apple reinvented the smartphone industry in 2007 by launching the iPhone, destroying BlackBerry's (then Research In Motion) market share, and forcing all of its competitors to play catch up. Apple is still the measuring stick, no matter what. Every article, every survey, every analyst note about a major company includes how that particular company is doing against Apple.
A recent IDC survey shows that Apple owned 21% of the smartphone market in the fourth quarter of 2012. While Android owns 70.1%, that's due to the fact Android is available on hundreds of devices, and iOS, is only available on one. It's not an apples-to-apples comparison. If you want that, look at BlackBerry's market share. It fell to 3.2% in the fourth quarter, shipping 7.4 million units.

Bacterial Attack Strategy Uses Special Delivery of Toxic Proteins
Pseudomonas aeruginosa targets opponents' cell walls and immunizes itself against its own weapons
View a video with NSF graduate research fellow Alistair Russell of the University of Washington.
When competing for food and resources, bacteria employ elaborate strategies to keep rival cells at bay. Scientists have now identified a pathway that allows disease-causing bacteria to attack other bacterial cells by breaking down their cell wall.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a type of bacteria readily found in everyday environments. It easily forms colonies in a wide variety of settings, including medical devices, body organs and skin wounds. This allows it to cause disease and act as a major pathogen, particularly in hospitals.
Research led by Joseph Mougous, assistant professor of microbiology at the University of Washington in Seattle, provides new insight into how P. aeruginosa acts as a master colonizer and maintains a competitive advantage over other bacteria. The study, which will be published in the July 21 issue of the journal Nature, describes how P. aeruginosa uses a specialized secretion system--the type VI secretion system--to deliver toxic proteins to recipient opponent bacteria. These proteins break down a structural protein known as peptoglycan, which the authors describe as "an Achilles heel of bacteria." Degrading this target in turn causes the breakdown of the protective cell wall of competitor bacteria. Furthermore, P. aeruginosa protects itself from this attack by using specific, strategically localized immunity proteins that counteract the effects of the toxic proteins it secretes.
This discovery not only sheds light on P. aeruginosa's pathogenic success, but is also interesting from an evolutionary perspective as it highlights the functional similarity between the bacterial type VI secretion system and viruses that infect bacteria, or bacteriophages.
This research was supported by the National Institutes of Health, the European Commission within the DIVINOCELL programme, and the National Science Foundation.

Perth's most savvy bargain hunters have jumped the gun on Boxing Day sales, snapping up bargains online before shop doors opened this morning, according to retailers.
"Retailers are reporting huge online sales, with items across the range being snapped up by bargain hunters," Australian National Retailers Association chief executive officer Margy Osmond said.
Airlines also are using their websites to offer huge discounts.
"[But] no gloss has been taken off the in store event, though, with numbers of shoppers reportedly bigger than 2011," Mrs Osmond said.
West Australian shoppers are expected to spend $164 million – a whopping 11 per cent increase on last year.
Across the country $1.8 billion is expected to pass through tills, up 2.5 per cent.
About half of the nation would attend the Boxing Day sales, which typically run through to early January, according to an ANRA and GE Capital survey.
Most people wanted discounted clothing, while electronics and entertainment equipment, homewares, music, cosmetics, food and wine and toys also would be popular.
Mrs Osmond said younger people were the most likely to embrace the sales.
"Australians are becoming very savvy about sales," she said.
"In previous years young people have taken on Boxing Day with fervor and while they continue to be well represented, other age groups are also making Boxing Day their number one shopping day of the year.
"The under 35s will storm the stores in 2012 - almost two thirds of 25-34 year olds will be in store this year (65 per cent) closely followed by 18-24 year olds (62 per cent)."
Mrs Osmond said men shopped for clothes then electronics, while women preferred clothes and then homewares.
"Every year retail does a roaring trade in business shirts and retailers are reporting today is no different," she said.
"Blokes are buying suits, shirts and casual clothes, keen to snap up a good deal. They will also be buying a few Christmas gifts – 5 per cent spend less before Christmas to get a deal at the sales."
Most Perth shopping centres are open today 11am to 5pm.

CLERMONT, Fla. - Police say a ring of thieves is targeting T.J. Maxx stores in Central Florida, stealing dozens of expensive purses.
The latest incident happened on March 7th at a T.J. Maxx store in Clermont on U.S. Highway 27.
Clermont police say five thieves were caught on surveillance video pulling off a bold robbery right in the middle of the day when the store was full of shoppers.
On surveillance video from the Clermont store, three men and two women are spotted walking out of the store around 2:50 p.m. with about 24 pricey purses.
According to a Clermont Police report, the store manager, Norberto Ortiz-Reyes, told detectives the company has been having problems with a group of thieves since February. At least nine stores on the west coast of Florida from Zephyrhills to Venice have been hit, possibly by the same group.
Ortiz-Reyes told police the group targets high-end bags, especially Michael Kors purses. A memo that the manager received from the company illustrated that the group often strikes Monday through Saturday between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. with an emphasis on 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
"To think that that would be happening anywhere is disgusting," said T.J. Maxx customer Pam Rumph. "It's scary. It makes me want to hang on to my bag, because I have a tendency to leave it in the cart but I watch it like a hawk, but still."
The Clermont heist happened in a matter of minutes. On the video, four of the suspects are seen walking in first. They make a beeline for the hand bags. They split up and two of the men immediately load up by putting purses around their arms.
Police say the group's fifth accomplice comes in later and looks over more bags until the group reconvenes, but they're not done just yet.
When the crooks are finally ready to leave, each walks out with several purses in hand. The store manager estimated they stole about $3,000 worth of merchandise.
"Oh my god, I've never even heard of this," said Amanda Wiebe, who shops at the T.J. Maxx store several times a week.
"Well it doesn't surprise me that people are stealing, but it surprises me that it's that many at a time," said Wiebe. "I feel like it makes our prices go up. It's just rude."
The manager tried to run after the group, but they jumped into a gray Acura and took off heading toward Highway 27.
The manager also told police the vehicle's license plate had a cover on it that made it impossible to read the plate.

2012-01-19: The initial version of this post contained a serious error: Cisco IOS DHCPv6 server does not create host routes; without on-link prefix, the router cannot forward the packets to the attached end-hosts.
IPv6 hosts can use stateless or stateful autoconfiguration. Stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) uses IPv6 prefixes from Router Advertisement (RA) messages; stateful autoconfiguration uses DHCPv6. The routers can use two flags in RA messages to tell the attached end hosts which method to use:
- Managed-Config-Flag tells the end-host to use DHCPv6 exclusively;
- Other-Config-Flag tells the end-host to use SLAAC to get IPv6 address and DHCPv6 to get other parameters (DNS server address, for example).
- Absence of both flags tells the end-host to use only SLAAC.
One might assume that setting managed-config-flag in RA messages forces IPv6 hosts to use DHCPv6. Wrong, the two flags are just a polite suggestion.
Let's start with the IPv6 Node Requirements (RFC 4294). Section 4.5 is very explicit: SLAAC must be supported, DHCPv6 may be supported.
RFC 4861 (IPv6 Neighbor Discovery) uses similarly non-committal language in Section 4.2: M flag indicates addresses are available DHCPv6, nothing more.
Can you enforce the use of DHCPv6 in case you want to track end-user IPv6 addresses for security/accountability reasons? Sure you can (there's a workaround for every problem) – if you don't advertise on-link prefixes in router advertisement messages, the hosts cannot auto-generate IPv6 addresses and are forced to use DHCPv6, or stay forever isolated from the beauties of IPv6-only Internet.
You have to configure IPv6 prefix on the LAN interface and disable its propagation with the ipv6 nd prefix no-advertise interface configuration command – DHCPv6 server does not create host routes toward its clients.
To enforce DHCPv6-only address configuration in Cisco IOS, use the following interface configuration:
interface FastEthernet0/0.100 description Host Access LAN (VLAN 100) encapsulation dot1Q 100 ipv6 address FEC0:1:2300:1::1/64 ipv6 nd prefix FEC0:1:2300:1::/64 no-advertise ipv6 nd managed-config-flag ipv6 nd router-preference High ipv6 dhcp server VLAN_100

Many more IPv6 access network hints are described in my new Building Large IPv6 Access Networks webinar (and you get access to the recording of the Building IPv6 Service Provider Core webinar when you register).
I can help you with the design or implementation details, or you could engage our professional services team in a full-blown network design/implementation project.

A wave of bomb attacks rocked Baghdad and the north of Iraq on Monday evening, as violence killed at least 30 people [2], state officials told reporters.
Most of the areas hit on Monday evening are Shiite majority areas. At least 10 vehicles rigged with bombs were detonated in eight neighbourhoods, AFP reported.
The violence comes as Shiites across Iraq celebrate thebirth of an important figure in their faith, the Imam Mehdi, in a holy festival called Shabaniya.
Conflicting reports on the number of casualties caused by the bombed have been reported by the major agencies, but at least 30 died in the violence.
According to Iraqi security officials who spoke to AFP, in Baghdad, at least 28 were killed and 121 wounded.
A car rigged with explosives detonated outside a popular supermarket in the commercial district of Baghdad's central Karrada neighbourhood.
According to eyewitnesses, the supermarket was destroyed in the attack and blood could be seen from dozens of meters away, AFP reported.
Two cars loaded with explosives detonated with minutes of each other in the western district of Jihad, killing eight civilians, Reuters reported.
A Shiite mosque and a bus station were also targets for the attacks.
In the northern city of Mosul, a bomb was planted in a cafe and killed five people, according to Reuters, who estimate that Monday's death toll was pushed to 40. A shooting in the northern area was also reported.
As of yet, no one has claimed responsibility for the violence but Sunni militantsoften target Shiite majority areas.
Insurgents, including Al Qaeda's Iraqi branch, often recruit from the disillusioned Sunni minority in Iraq [3], which has felt sidelined by the Iraqi government since the US-led invasion that removed former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein [4] from power.
In December, Sunnis took the street in a protest against Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki, but little was done to appease the minority. As a result, Sunni militants have taken to utilizing violence as a more effective means of getting the government's attention.
Sectarian violence is at its highest point in Iraq since 2008. In May alone, dubbed 'the bloodiest month', over 1,000 people died, according to Reuters.

PORT CLINTON, Ohio (AP) -- A state agency continues to search western Lake Erie for two boaters who disappeared days ago with two others whose bodies have been recovered.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources says two boats with the department's watercraft division were searching Sunday for the missing men, who are presumed dead. Authorities don't think they could have survived days in frigid waters.
The state's search was delayed a day due to high winds and waves Saturday. Coast Guard and sheriff's office search efforts are concluded.
Searchers found a partially submerged boat Thursday on a reef near the Davis-Besse nuclear power plant east of Toledo.
They later spotted the bodies of two females wearing life jackets, later identified as 33-year-old Amy Santus of Perrysburg and 16-year-old Paige Widmer of Leesville, South Carolina.

Topic: CC and my Dad Antonio Moreno
My dad passed on January 18, 2011 . He had CC for 18 months. He took his chemo well, did not suffer , nor did his hair fall out. But in December 2009 he fell ill to diverticulites. I think from Tarceva. He developed 2 fistulas and had to have surgery to repair them. From January thru March 2010 he did not have any chemo due to surgery. In that time his tumor grew and cancer in the liver spread to lungs. He tried chemo but that did not stop the Cancer from spreading. Also tried 2 clinical trials and was left very weak and ended up in the hospital many times. In November after the Clinical trial he was in the Hospital and the scans showed that the CC had progressed. In December he decided that he couldnt take any more chemo. His Dr. said that it was better if he stopped, at that time I asked Dr. how much time my dad had. He said he couldnt tell me. Well my dad lasted 6 weeks from the time he stopped the chemo. We called Hospice. Kind of scared for I had read Laineys post . I knew what to look for when Hospice came. The nurses were very friendly and they told us they were here to treat his pain. My dad never complained. he was always smiling. Up until the last week, he was dancing in the hall way. He suddenly got a burst of energy. cleaned his room and wanted to take a trip to see his brother. He had seen all his siblings except for that one brother.
We were told by Hospice to look for the SIGNS. Suddenly he became confused and could not swollow. He said he saw all his friends and family that had passed. Went fishing and built homes with his Carpenter friends. He was ready to join them. Hospice was here 24 hrs. Suddenly he went into a coma and passed the next day. He had a smile on his face as they took him. My family was afraid to let him pass at home. My DAD taught us not to fear DEATH. We are at PEACE. We miss him for its been two weeks.
We rejoice that the Lord has him. My dad was a Master Carpenter. I see him building homes in Heaven. I want to Thank every one who posts on this site. I am sorry we all have to go through this . But happy that I got lots of answers to my questions. Thank You all .

Way excited, but also kinda scared. Been getting mixed answers as to rather or not Apple will ship to an address other than whats on your AT&T account. So just going to stay up and keep my fingers crossed that they will.... If not ill be at Walmart at 8 a.m. to pre-order through them. one way or another I WILL have my iPhone 5 next Friday
You can add a line without a deposit if your credit allows. Now as far as a wireless only are you talking about a data only like an iPad data. I am not all the way sure but I think that you can now have shared data and add a data plan only for ten bucks a month. Shared data is the kicker though. Then I am not sure a data only sim would work unless the iPhone is jailbroken. Again I am not sure about all this though
Sad for Many Of Us, on contract, we have to wait till the day att tell to wait. mine is may 8 next year. hope i can get at 200 dls but this time have to wait. I dont want to spend 550dls.
Who wants AT&T anyway? I just completed preorder of 2 32gb iPhone 5's on Verizon's website in under 15 minutes (starting at 2:55am EST)
G'night all! Time to rest.
Update to the shipping issue!! Apple let me update my shipping address today, so it can be done!
