Louisianan liberals and conservatives alike strongly support drilling off the shore of the state: 77 to 12 percent. The oil spill has done little to sway Louisianans' opinions, 42% of voters say the spill hasn't changed their mind.
As the backbone of the economy and representing 16% of the state's GDP, it is no surprise that Louisianans so fervently support the oil and gas industry, while fishing and tourism account for a mere 6% of the GDP combined. According to some estimates a year long drilling ban could cost the state up to 20,000 jobs.
Louisianans believe that President George W. Bush did a better job handling the crisis in the state than President Obama, 50 to 35. But most Louisianans think the oil spill is far more critical than Hurricane Katrina. Louisianans overwhelmingly believe that the effects of the oil spill will be far more harmful to Louisiana in the long term than Hurricane Katrina, 76 to 17%.
While Governor Jindal receives high marks from voters for job performance and his handling of the oil spill, they do not see him as a national leader. 63% of voters approve of his over all performance and 65% approve of his response to the spill—but only 34 think he should run for President in 2012.
"People are always concerned with their economic livelihood," said Dean Debnam President of Public Policy Polling. "In Louisiana the economy and jobs are clearly tied to the oil and gas industry. Louisianans seem more concerned about the closure of oil rigs than of beaches."
PPP will release numbers on the Louisiana Senate race tomorrow.
PPP surveyed 492 Louisiana voters from June 12th- 13th. The survey's margin of error is +/- 4.4%. Other factors, such as refusal to be interviewed and weighting, may introduce additional error that is more difficult to quantify.
If you would like an interview regarding this release, please contact Dean Debnam at (888) 621-6988 or 919-880-4888.

She was arrested Saturday evening, September 27 in Santa Barbara County, Calif. after being spotted driving erratically, but was released at 11 P.M. that evening on 5,000 dollars bail.
Heather Locklear was arrested Saturday evening, September 27 in Santa Barbara County, Calif. on suspicion of driving under the influence. She was pulled over by a California Highway Patrol (CPH) officer after a resident reported seeing her leaving a parking lot and "driving erratically," a spokesperson for the CPH said. Heather was released later that day after posting $5,000 bail.
It was reported that at around 4:30 P.M., a female witness saw Heather driving erratically while leaving a parking lot in Montecito. The witness claimed to have seen the actress "driving forwards and backwards over a pair of sunglasses and revving her engine". Soon thereafter the witness saw her "exited her vehicle and stumbled into the traffic lane." Having concern for Heather's safety, the witness quickly called 911 to report the incident to the CPH.
According to police report, a CPH officer who arrived on the scene found Heather seated inside her vehicle, which was partially blocking the roadway. The officer testified the star looked "disoriented and impaired" and so was taken to a local CHP station for drug and alcohol tests. She was said to be very cooperative.
Results of the tests indicated Heather wasn't under the influence of alcohol, but prescription medication. "Although obvious impairment was exhibited during the tests, alcohol was ruled out as a factor," a police spokesperson said in a statement. "She was evaluated by a drug recognition expert, who concluded Ms. Locklear was under the influence of a controlled substance, and could not safely operate a motor vehicle."
Heather thus was booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail. She was released at 11 P.M. that evening on $5,000 bail. Her lawyer wasn't immediately available for comment and her publicist also wouldn't comment on her arrest.
Heather's DUI arrest came just two months after she completed her four-week stint at an Arizona rehab facility, where she was treated for what was claimed as "anxiety and depression."

I want to make Multiline Edit Control, with a transparent background.
( Only Text And scrollbar should be visible ), how can i do this? :confused:
If i could change the background of my edit control, i could sucssed.
So that is a good solution too. How todo that?
I mean to change the background to a HBITMAP.
I remember this tutorial on windows skinning address topics in transperancy.. although I am not sure if the same methods would apply to a multiline edit box...
tried googling for an owner-draw edit box.. no love
>>make Multiline Edit Control<<
Create the control with the ES_MULTILINE style.
>>change the background to a HBITMAP<<
Use CreatePatternBrush (very limited capability on win95, okay for later versions of windows) to convert the bitmap into a brush and return its handle from WM_CTLCOLOREDIT handler of the parent window (or WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC if the edit control is read only).
Edit controls.
Thanks. It seems that i have to do the same thing for RichEdit. Sorry.
And my RichEdit has a VSROLLbar.
Since RichEdit doesn't have a WM_CTLCOLORXXX, i don't know what to do...
There is a function to set a color of a Rich Edit Box (COLORREF), but there is nothing which includes HBRUSH...
with richedits you can send the EM_SETBKGNDCOLOR message, with
set the wparam to 0 and set the lparam to a 0x00bbggrr value, or also works setting it to a (COLORRREF)RGB(r,g,b) return.Code:
wParam = (WPARAM) (BOOL) fUseSysColor;
lParam = (LPARAM) (COLORREF) clr;
You have no idea what your talking about.Quote:

( its Read Only )
but when i scroll down a little bit. The background image freaks out...
One possibility might be to subclass the richedit control, and BitBlt your bitmap during handling of WM_ERASEBKGND for that control. Another, possibility is to superclass the richedit control and change the HBRUSH of the WNDCLASSEX to that returned by CreatePatternBrush.
Not sure if either of these will work, though.
For more information about window sublassing, search this board and read this.
For superclassing, see the bottom of this msdn page (also contains more information on subclassing).
>>You have no idea what your talking about.<<
(s)he's factually correct and, while it's not exactly what you're looking for, you'll get more and varied help if you exhibit more grace and less impatience towards those generous enough to offer free advice.
I know, i know. Just that (s)he started to explain what i allready wrote.Quote:

I'm close to solution with subclassing. Iv'e tryed both paths, and subclassing seems to work.
I did what you told me, and background is drawn. But the problem is that when i assign new
WndProc, the old one isn't used. And the old one contained just about everything about
the RichEdit.
So the result is a RichEdit with only things i did in new WndProc. So things that where in
previus WndProc ( like TEXT, SCROLLBAR, ...) aren't there, obviusly.
Can i somehow copy stuff from old WndProc to my New one?

Kristen Stewart & Juliette Binoche in 'Clouds Of Sils Maria' Trailer
by Ethan Anderton
May 22, 2014
The Cannes Film Festival is drawing to a close (check out all our coverage here), and while most of the big players for the coveted Palme d'Or prize have already played, there's at least one more film yet to premiere that still has a chance. Olivier Assayas latest drama Clouds of Sils Maria is debuting in France this week, the story of an aging actress (Juliette Binoche), starring in a new production of a play that made her famous a long time ago. The younger role she played in the beginning of her career has gone to a younger actress (Chloe Grace Moretz), and she finds herself reflecting on the star she used to be. Kristen Stewart also has a prominent role as Binoche's assistant, and she seems to hold her own. Watch!
Here's the first trailer for Olivier Assayas Clouds of Sils Maria (via The Playlist):
Clouds of Sils Maria is written and directed by Olivier Assayas. At the peak of her international career, Maria Enders (Juliette Binoche) is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous twenty years ago. But back then she played the role of Sigrid, now she is being asked to step into the other role, the older Helena. She departs with her assistant (Kristen Stewart) to rehearse in Sils Maria, a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet with a penchant for scandal (Chloë Grace Moretz) takes the role of Sigrid, and Maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, but facing an unsettling reflection of herself. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival and IFC Films releases it sometime this year. Interested?

Authorities in Ho Chi Minh City have detected nearly 3 tons of rotten chicken while those in Nghe An Province have destroyed 10,000 eggs smuggled from China and seized 1.7 tons of pig fat without clear origin.
Yesterday morning, a joint inspection team, including officers of the city's Thu Duc Animal Quarantine Station and local traffic police, forced a suspicious van to stop for examination and discovered it was carrying about 2,940 kg of chicken, most of them were rotten. The van's driver, Le Huy Cuong, failed to show a quarantine certificate or any other documents related to the meat. Cuong said he had been hired by Nguyen Thi Kim Anh, a trader in Dong Nai Province, to transport the chickens to Dong Thap Province. As shown on several sheets of papers stuck on the cartons of goods, the delivery locations were a number of primary schools in Dong Thap's Cao Lanh Town, the officers said.
The same day, the veterinary station in Nghe An Province's Vinh City destroyed more than 10,000 chicken eggs seized by the provincial market management force from a van driven by Bui Huy Xuyen from Quang Tri Province. Having no documents to prove the origin of the eggs, Xuyen confessed they had been illegally imported from China. The station is also prepared to destroy 1.7 tons of pig fat handed over by market controllers a few days ago. The fat was carried in a truck by Ho Dac Tho of Hue City, who had no documents related to the goods, which Tho said he had been hired to transport from Hue to Hanoi.

HEB Hosts Confab on Food Bank Development, Sourcing
Chain helps draw global business leaders together to trade ideas on feeding the hungry.
San Antonio, Texas this week became ground zero in the larger battle to alleviate hunger for 850 million people across the globe, when H.E. Butt Grocery Co. shared its best practices on reallocating food and grocery products to deliver food assistance to the hungry with a group of global business leaders.
San Antonio-based HEB worked in collaboration with the Global FoodBanking Network (GFN), to assemble food bank and business leaders from Latin America, Canada, U.S., the European Federation, the Middle East, and Asia for a conference from March 3 to 7.
The dignitaries traded ideas on topics including The Food Bank as a Community Asset; Organizational Structural Issues: Design for Efficiency; How Food Banks Work; Traditional and Non-Traditional Sources of Food; Identifying Needs and Finding Donors; and Food Sourcing Infrastructure.
Besides HEB, sponsors for the event were the Kellogg Co., Procter & Gamble, and The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation. Food bank networks in Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, and Argentina represented the Latin American delegation. Nine guests from South Africa, where GFN is developing a network of food banks in Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg, and Port Elizabeth, were among the attendees.
The Global FoodBanking Network supports food banks and food bank networks where they exist, and works to create them in communities where they are needed.

Besides Granger, Rush, Hibbert who do you think will be a pacer for the 2011/2012 season?
Name only current players.
My choices:

Dunleavy-- if healthy
Greg Oden
Mike Conley
Eric Gordon
Jeff Teague
Courtney Lee
Rodney Carney
Am I missing any? :p
maybe McBob
Graham possibly but not too likely
I would initially say Dunleavy. I think Murphy's legs won't last and he won't be as effective as he gets older.
OT....but in my NBA2k9 Association Game that I'm playing with the Pacers lineup, I was forced to trade Dunleavy after the 2009-2010 season ( the 2nd season with me as GM ) after he got p*ssed off at me. I played him Starter minutes for the majority of the season but had to cut his minutes here and there cuz he needed to rest....but for some reason, he demanded a trade. So I moved him for some Expiring Contracts and started clean in the 3rd season.
Danny is the absolute shiznit in 2k9. His shot is very easy to time well, he can blow past defenders, his FT shot is also very easy, and can he effin finish at the rim.
His cyberface though... they need a better one for him next year.
I can only see Dunleavy, Rush, Hibbert, Jack and possibly Dunleavy depending on how well his knee responds. Murphy, Tinsley and Ford are all goners.
I cant wait till the 2011 summer :)
In my 3rd season as GM, I essentially tore down the entire team with Granger, Nash, BRush, Murphy, Hibbert and Gooden as my vets and the rest of the rotation filled out with Rookie and Sophomore Players and I'm 9 mil under the Cap. I maybe losing....but I get to rebuild my Team from scratch.
That's what I love about Association Mode....I can be the George Steinbrenner of the NBA and no one cares.
Also I think we are going to see most of this movement long before we get to 11/12. I think next summer will feature plenty of changes, or certainly into 10/11. By summer 2011 I think this question will already be something of a moot point.
In the year 2000...
...in the year 2000.
Troy Murphy will stay because him leaving would put me in a stage of depression.

Friday, 14 Oct 2011 07:14 AM
PITTSBURGH — Republican presidential hopeful Rick Perry is promising to expand energy production on federal lands, curb regulations and create some 1.2 million jobs in the process.
The Texas governor says the quickest way to turn around the economy is to deploy American ingenuity and to tap American energy. He plans to use the first policy speech of his White House run to pledge to put America back to work, creating energy the country could sell around the world.
Perry's speech on Friday comes as his campaign tries to move past some early bumps. Perry hopes to steady that course in a speech at a Pittsburgh-area steel plant. While echoing the call for increased drilling on federal lands, he also cast voters' choice in 2012 as a referendum on President Barack Obama.

Shooting with your support hand
Every time I go to the range I try to send 10-20 rounds downrange with my left hand. Try as I may I just dont get it, I could just as well be holding the gun with my feet and pulling the trigger with my big toe. Can anyone give me any tips on how to start from the begining to keep steady and aim accurately? It is just getting frustrating. Please send help! :confused:
You have spent a lifetime developing muscle memory that favors your strong side, it will take time, patience, discipline and practice to shoot accurately from your weakside.
Go to plan wall in your house with nothing on it. Get in your stance and point the gun at the wall. Place strong hand to chest as Jpyle stated.
As your looking at the sight's squeeze the trigger. If the front sight moves adjust the amount of finger on the trigger and repeat.
Always triple check that the handgun is unloaded.
What works for me is to use the TV or light switches at various distances. I have a couple of handguns that have more "dry fire" time than "live fire" time. Muscle memory has a lot to do with shooting.
Have you tried...
Cant the gun slightly to the right (assuming your support hand is your left hand). Also you may need to work on strengthening your support hand grip. If your grip (especially trigger finder) is not strong enough, you may be turning the pistol to the right every time you press the trigger as the rest of your hand is compensating for weakness in your trigger finger.
Practice shooting with your weak hand
In the Army we are trained to shoot with both our strong hand and our weak hand. The reason for this constant training is a little known fact of war. The enemy when they shoot at you (especially the untrained terrorist enemy) aim not at your head or center of mass, but aim at your weapon, because that is where the fire (danger) is coming from. This causes a lot of wounded in the strong hand, arm, shoulder situations. Hence we train to be able to switch to the weak hand and continue the battle.
If you have a really weak hand and even if you don't, (I am ambidextrous) do not stand up there with only one hand on the pistol. Grab that gun with both hands and then you will not have a shaking hand. I practice about half of my shooting (50 rounds or so) with each hand. I also practice drawing from my right hand holster with my left had. And sometimes I just wear two holsters one set up for the left hand and the other for the right hand. Works for me.

"Bang! Squeak! Honk!", these are the last sounds you heard. Now you are waking up in a bright hospital room, hearing the voice of some young nurse yelling, "Doctor, doctor he's awake!". Your head is spinning, you feel some weird pain in your chest. A man you've never seen before steps in the room to relieve the nurse and asks, "Sir, what's your name?"Such a simple question, yet you have no … [Read more...]

Product Review: Timbuk2 Especial Tres
"Wow! Awesome bag!" and "I want that!" are the two most common phrases I hear when I commute to school with my Timbuk2 Especial Tres black bag. Not only does it store everything that I need (a subject I will get into in a bit) but it is weightless on my back as I ride to and from school, a 14 mile commute. As a graduate student in a five year program I wanted something that was going to last, … [Read more...]
Product Review: Cannondale CAAD 10 Rival
There is no question that today's bicycle manufactures are putting out a never-ending supply of carbon frames that all claim to be lighter, faster, and more comfortable than any bike frame that came before it. But leave it to Cannondale to up the game with their new CAAD 10 aluminum frameset. And in the sea of carbon, this bike stands out for what it is not. It is not an all out race bike, … [Read more...]

Monkey Bars Garage Rack
Many bikes, not enough floor space – does this situation sound like yours. Well it was mine. With anywhere from 7 to 12 bikes at a time in my workshop there is a serious shortage of floor space. Yes, you can hang them from a wall or ceiling, but usually one at a time. And even then they take up too much wall/ceiling space. So what is the solution you ask yourself? The solution is … [Read more...]
Product Review: Seasucker Bike Rack Review
We know what you are saying to yourself! How can some suction cups hold a bunch of bikes firmly on the roof of my car at 85mph (not that any of us go over the posted speed limit right)?

They use a … [Read more...]

Product Review – Craft Zero Extreme Concept
With cold riding upon us in Southern California (for us cold is in the 40's) we start to look to our long sleeve base layers to help keep the chill at bay in the mornings, and not over heat us as the sun brings the temps into the low 60's. So when we were asked by CRAFT to review their "Zero Extreme Concept" base layer we jumped at the opportunity. CRAFT is well known for innovative clothing, … [Read more...]

Linda Loudermilk Men's Collection
When it comes to fashion, girls have all the fun! And in the realm of eco-fashion, until now, all a guy could hope for was organic cotton t-shirts and jeans without much style. With the launch of Loudermilk Men from the LA-based eco- extraordinaire fashionista Linda Loudermilk– "the fearless urban male who doesn't need a gas guzzler to prove himself" can go green with clothing "grounded in sharp tailoring and clean lines". "It's a mix of Saville Row inspired suitings, with t-shirts and dress shirts to mix and match". Linda says it best, "Loudermilk Men is made in the tradition of the most expensive suit you can buy. It has a very British look combined with a gothic Belgian flare. My menswear is designed for men who are not afraid to express themselves through their clothing."

WORK is underway in Catshill to alleviate the risk of flooding with new grids on the local drainage system to prevent drains getting blocked with debris.
The new grids, which are being installed by Bromsgrove District Council in Green Lane, Wildmoor Lane and Golden Cross Lane, should be completed before April, and once in place they should allow water to get through into the culverts more efficiently when the stream levels rise.
The new scheme will hopefully reduce the risk of flooding to a number of houses in the Catshill area.
The work is the first stage in a bid to replace 13 grids throughout the Bromsgrove district at a cost of £54,000, with £18,000 being spent on the five grids in Catshill.
More of the grids are due to be replaced after April at the Bromsgrove bus station, All Saint's Church, Little Heath Lane and the Strand, as well as on New Road, St Chad's and Beacon Close in Rubery.
Catshill ward member and civic head Councillor Helen Jones, said: "Every time it rains residents are fearful that their homes will flood.
"I am pleased the works were passed by the council and it's great to see them underway as it will mean peace of mind for so many people."

Federal Pell Grant: A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are awarded usually only to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's or a professional degree. (In some cases, however, a student enrolled in a post-baccalaureate teacher certification program might receive a Pell Grant.) Pell Grants are considered a foundation of federal financial aid, to which aid from other federal and nonfederal sources might be added.
The maximum Pell Grant award for the 2012-2013 award year (July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013) is $5,550. The amount you get, though, will depend not only on your financial need, but also on your costs to attend school, your status as a full-time or part-time student, and your plans to attend school for a full academic year or less. The maximum award amount is given for any Pell Grant eligible student whose parent or guardian died as a result of military service in Iraq or Afghanistan after Sept.11, 2001. You must be under 24 years old or enrolled at least part- time in college at the time of your parent's or guardian's death.
Note: Beginning with the 2012-2013 award year, Pell gant Lifetime Elligibility Used (LEU) is tracked on the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) website, www.nslds.gov. The Lifetime Pell Eligibility is limited to the equivalent of twelve (12) full semesters or 600%, with 100% being the equivalent of two (2) full time semesters.
Your school can apply Pell Grant funds to your school costs, pay you directly (usually by check), or combine these methods. The school must tell you in writing how much your award will be and how and when you'll be paid. Schools must disburse funds at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter). Schools that do not use semesters, trimesters, or quarters must disburse funds at least twice per academic year.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant: The Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) program is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need. Pell Grant recipients with the lowest expected family contributions (EFCs) will be considered first for an FSEOG. Just like Pell Grants, the FSEOG does not have to be repaid.
You can receive between $100 and $4,000 a year, depending on when you apply, your financial need, the funding at the school you're attending, and the policies of the financial aid office at your school. FSEOG funds are limited. At Dodge City Community College, if you are eligible, you may expect an award of up to $400 per year dependent upon your FASFA being completed in a timely manner.
If you're eligible, your school will credit your account, pay you directly (usually by check), or combine these methods. Your school must pay you at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter). Schools that do not use semesters, trimesters, or quarters must disburse funds at least twice per academic year.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 24/2/2014 (1273 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
This would be a good time to take a warm vacation.
Environment Canada calls for bitterly cold temperatures for Winnipeg and the surrounding area this week. Today, look for sunny skies and a high of only -18 C, with northwest wind 20 km/h bringing wind chill values in the -36 range.
The weather service has already issued an extreme wind chill warning for most of the western Manitoba region, including areas around Brandon, Virden, Souris, Dauphin, Riding Mountain National Park and Swan River. With wind chills expected to linger around -40 this morning, frostbite on exposed skin may occur in less than 10 minutes.
In Lakeshore School Division, all schools are closed.
For tonight in Winnipeg, there's a 40 per cent chance of flurries. It will be a cold one, too, with a low of -25 C.
This icy grip will continue to hold the city by the throat Tuesday, with a forecast high of only -21 C. The wind will be northwest 30 km/h gusting to 50 km/h, giving wind chills near -40.
Snow and slightly warmer temperatures are expected Wednesday.

That was a 'Big Sur'-prise we Could Have Done Without
One Step Forward = Two Backwards
Today was one of those days we'll look back on and laugh about, one day, maybe.
The plan was to drive towards LA via Big Sur (Sur is Spanish for South) a famous piece of coastal highway. The warning bells should have gone off when we passed a couple of signs along the way advising that the road was closed in X miles. That couldn't apply to us and all the other people who who enjoying a pleasant drive along this Scenic Byway?. Wrong.
Long story short, we drove about 65 miles only to find that the road was impassable from that point - there was no other option but to turn around and retrace our steps until we reached a point where we could take an alternative route. All up that was some 130 miles (210 kilometres) down the tubes - on the plus side we did get to see some great scenery (twice).
After a long slog of driving we have holed-up in Santa Barbara for the night. We are staying down by the harbour which is a pretty groovy/trendy place.
Anyway, all good things do to come to an end, as has this trip.
All that is left is the planning of the next one (and to be reunited with our darling daughter).
PS: The following info would have been handy earlier:
Associated Press
Posted: 05/03/2011 09:05:32 AM PDT
Updated: 05/03/2011 09:53:32 AM PDT
A section of Highway 1 through the Big Sur region will remain closed for another month or so as crews continue to work on clearing a landslide.
A spokesman for the California Department of Transportation says the highway at Alder Creek won't be open for another four to six weeks.
Alder Creek is about 25 miles north of San Simeon, or about 38 miles south of the town of Big Sur.
Colin Jones says the section of roadway was covered when "thousands of tons of dirt and debris" fell on the highway last month.
The same stretch of roadway was also closed for several days after a landslide in late March.

A memorial fund has been set up for devoted and loving mother Linda Cox, who was struck by a driver in a stolen car outside the hospital where she worked for 20 years.
As Ms Cox's family and the entire health services community struggles to come to terms with the tragedy, there's a call for people to leave her with a legacy.
The ACT Health Directorate has set up the Linda Cox Memorial Fund, and is inviting anyone to donate money in the cardiac technician's memory.
The money will foremost be used to support Ms Cox's family.
But the family has indicated proceeds will also go to furthering her passion; education and training in the health services sector.
Ms Cox's husband Jamie yesterday described his wife as a selfless individual, dedicated to her sons Adam, 13, and Bradley, 15, with a passion for fostering skills in others.
''She was a devoted and loving mother, she put everyone before herself,'' he said.
The 38-year-old, whose funeral will be held today, was struck by a car when crossing the road outside her workplace, the Canberra Hospital, last Thursday afternoon.
A colleague, Ashlee Bumpus, was also seriously injured.
Police have alleged Justin Lee Monfries was behind the wheel of the stolen Toyota Camry at the time.
Monfries, 24, has yet to enter pleas and is locked up on remand over the incident.
Director-General Peggy Brown said the fund was in response to an outpouring of communal grief from within the hospital and the wider community.
''In the wake of Linda's death last week, we've had contact from a number of staff and members of the public really wanting to recognise the tragedy that's occurred,'' Dr Brown said.
''Recognise the significant contribution that Linda's made to health care delivery in the ACT and particularly the Canberra Hospital over two decades, and support the family. In response to that reaching out that people have done, we have decided that we should set up a fund to accept donations from people.''
Dr Brown said Ms Cox was a 20-year veteran of the Canberra Hospital and a leader in the workplace.
In 2010 she was part of a team which received an award for a breakthrough system which cut the time taken for heart attack survivors to receive lifesaving treatment.
''[Linda] had been involved in education and training, she attended conferences and meetings, and brought back and shared that knowledge,'' Dr Brown said.

What happens when a wife who hasn't been very involved in a couple's finances is widowed?
Hearsay and random factoids may suggest that widowed women don't do well managing money after their husband's death.
I'm janet stauble with your bankrate.com Personal Finance Minute.
Economist Joanne Hsu, who did her thesis research for the Cognitive Economics Survey at the University of Michigan, found that widowed women cope differently based on their situations.
Eighty percent of wives who are part of a traditional couple learn more about money and take more control of it when their husband's health falters. When they're ultimately left on their own, these wives are likely to be successful managing money in retirement.
The widows who don't successfully manage their money are those whose husbands died unexpectedly, leaving them no time to learn, or those who were left with a financial mess because the husband was a poor money manager himself.
The obvious lessons from the findings are that both halves of a couple should be involved in financial decisions. Even if one of them is the primary money manager, the other should learn about their situation and get familiar with the day-to-day budgeting and banking process.

Lonza Group Ltd.
) Half-Year Business Performance Fully On Track
• Business is fully on track with a CORE EBIT growth of 13.1% compared with the first half of 2013 despite currency headwinds
• Revenue grew by 7.0% in constant exchange rates, 3.2% in the reported currency
• Pharma&Biotech made good progress in all three Business Units in the first half of 2014
• Specialty Ingredients had a good performance with an especially strong contribution from Consumer Care and Industrial Solutions
• Ongoing transformational initiatives towards a leaner and more market-driven organization show positive impact, and we have identified further upside potential from all Business Units
• Net debt has been reduced by CHF 300 million compared with the first half of 2013
Basel, Switzerland, 24 July 2014 – In the first half of 2014, Lonza's Specialty Ingredients and Pharma&Biotech segments both delivered a sound performance despite currency headwinds and are fully on track to deliver the growth targets. Compared with the same period in 2013, sales growth of 3.2% to CHF 1.8 billion and CORE EBIT growth of 13.1% to CHF 241 million are coming from the implementation of growth projects and from restructuring activities.
Richard Ridinger, CEO of Lonza, said, "These are satisfying results; and they show that we're on the right path with our transformational initiatives, which are already delivering first benefits and making us more market oriented and competitive. Our hard work on operational improvements and quality initiatives across the company in all regions is also demonstrating results."
Pharma&Biotech Segment
Our Pharma&Biotech segment reported a strong first half of the year with substantially higher sales and increased profitability. While different technologies in the three Business Units showed good progress, the segment experienced particularly strong momentum from the demand for mammalian biopharma and Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADCs). These positive developments were supported by a solid project pipeline across the board in our unique technology offerings.
The capacity utilization across the entire network was at budgeted levels in the first half of 2014 and is expected to improve going forward. Lonza continues to benefit from a good market positioning and our ability to meet growing customer interest in future technologies such as ADCs, Cell Therapy and Viral Therapy. Our continuous quality updating supports our productivity targets and fulfills our customers' requirements.
Specialty Ingredients Segment
Our Specialty Ingredients segment had a solid performance in the first half of 2014 with the strongest contribution coming from Consumer Care, which includes Personal Care & Preservation, Nutrition and Hygiene. Industrial Solutions and Agro Ingredients both have developed well and achieved a result above last year's level. In the Northern Hemisphere, weather conditions did not improve over last year; consequently, the Water Treatment business performed on similar levels as 2013.
The Specialty Ingredients segment continues to benefit from the ongoing positive impact of cost reductions and productivity improvements. Sound market demand in the major markets resulted in continued high asset utilization in most technologies. Some innovative new product launches across Specialty Ingredients that answer to the needs and requirements in our markets are expected to contribute positively in the future.
The strategic evaluation process of the Wood Protection business is on its way. We will update the financial markets as soon as a decision has been made to either divest the business or to go for other strategic options. From a business perspective, Wood Protection continued to improve performance as expected compared with the first half of 2013.
Financial Summary
• CORE EBIT growth of 13.1% to CHF 241 million • Sales increased by 7.0% in constant exchange rates (3.2% in reported currency) to CHF 1.8 billion • Profit for the period increased by 242% to CHF 140 million • Capital expenditure of CHF 70 million (18.6% lower than in the first half of 2013) • Operational free cash flow grew by 82.4% to CHF 124 million • Net debt reduction of CHF 304 million to CHF 2,113 million. This resulted in a gearing of 102% and a net debt/EBITDA ratio of 2.81x (3.33x end of June 2013) • CORE RONOA at 14.5% compared with 11.8% in the first half of 2013
Our ongoing transformational initiatives towards a more market-driven organization are having a positive impact, and we have identified additional upside potential from all Business Units going forward. We will now also increase our focus on exploiting these opportunities systematically. All businesses have a solid product and project pipeline supporting future growth. The broad technology toolbox we have available enables us to serve our markets and customers with market-leading solutions.
Based on a positive performance in the first half of 2014 and based on current market conditions and constant exchange rates, Lonza reiterates its Full-Year 2014 outlook with a CORE EBIT growth of ~10% and sales growth of ~5%. The capital expenditure in 2014 will remain well below CHF 300 million.

Big Story
Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Grand Theft Auto' started by Theodore_Beaver, Feb 20, 2013.
No way.....just no
"Look, to give you a synopsis on why I feel the Xbox 360 version will have ten discs….and of course this is an exaggeration btw to highlight the point"
He says it's an exaggeration. He says that he thinks there will be a significant amount of discs, not 10.
10? This would be the biggest game ever to have 10 discs.
Minimum 3 for sure.
I wonder how they'll split the game up
How many discs did LA Noire and MaxPayne3 have?
I guess it all depends on how much music and pre-rendered cutscenes GTAV will have. I think the reason Max3 was so big was because of the singleplayer story and ALL the MANY cutscenes.
2 discs for Max Payne 3, 3 for L.A. Noire. I believe Max Payne 3 took two discs because of multiplayer and Noire took 3 because of facial animation. I believe GTA V would take 2 discs, but there's a possibility that it can even take three or even four discs.
Well im not really phased, coz im on the god system. PS3 BUDDIES SALUTE!
Didn't even know GTA V would be on multiple discs. I've never really been interested in playing games on 2 or more discs, so I guess this will be the first time i've played a game like that.
I heard 23 discs and a Tommy Vercetti action figure changes your disc for you during 'switch-disc times' while 'I Ran (So Far Away)' plays out of his ass.
Don't worry bro. You dont have to switch discs, you just have to install the other discs and then you play on the first disc. Im pretty sure Multiplayer will require a disc change though, but single player is all goodz.
While you scrubs play on all these "modern" consoles, i'll be getting all 100 cartridges needed to play GTA V on my N64!
You're clearly talkin' bout DAT OLD SKOOL
Man, i'm just imagining the graphics on that right now...
One of the best uses of a gif EVER. I laughed.

Show Them the Money: Agencies Get Reimbursement Tips on Addiction Treatment
Publishing a report on state policy options for Medicaid and TANF reimbursement for addiction treatment and prevention services
The Legal Action Center of the City of New York designed, printed and distributed Resources for Recovery: State Policy Options for Increasing Access to Alcohol and Drug Treatment Through Medicaid & TANF, which had been written earlier.
Key Results
Under the grant:
The center staff designed the report, printed 3,000 copies and in November 2002 mailed copies to more than 1,000 people, including members of national and state associations involved with addiction services, policymakers at addiction-related federal agencies, addiction treatment providers, and representatives of national policy and advocacy organizations involved with Medicaid, TANF and addiction issues.
The project director made a presentation about the report at the September 2003 meeting of the Purchasing Institute for Resources for Recovery in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Ooof! The photograph looks like it came from a science fiction movie. Or else it could have been a Christo project. There's an eerie beauty to the scene; too bad that it has such unfortunate effects. At least we created a few jobs putting it up and may create a few more taking it down.

You're right. Nobody else outside Japan will use it since it's Japan only.
...For now.
You're right. Nobody else outside Japan will use it since it's Japan only.
...For now.
And now , They announced that stylish stand for North America. I do have to say that it is a good thing that they have it bundled with the game for free instead of selling it by itself for about $20 - $30. Yeah , I'm pointing the finger at Apple for there iPad dock that was about $30 that I don't use.
But hey , My guess is that Nintendo of Europe would announce this for the PAL regions come either later on today or possibly tomorrow just from judging on how quick the announce for North America after the Japanese announcement yesterday. So don't just think that you are going to be spared off this just quite yet , Europe. For there might be an announcement for that stylish stand soon.
EDIT: That iPad dock I mentioned was like the 3DS charging dock that came with the 3DS. Though it's good that the 3DS charging dock was free compared to the $30 iPad dock.

Oh... the irony
Read an interview with Masahiro Sakurai in Nintendo Power. He said he couldn't comment on the voice acting for international releases but from what he's heard of the Japanese acting, it's great and fitting. About us...it's okay, they got great people but...ugh...
Well, I'll have to think I'm playing as Guy Cecil, and Ash is the bad guy, er, girl.
They're actors! They shouldn't care how little they'll get from this gig if they already have enough to sustain a normal lifestyle, they should do it with passion anyways!
Look at My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, a kids show but Tara Strong still puts on an amazing performance but this...I haven't payed that much attention to her acting in this title.
Am I the only one that does not think the english voice acting is terrible?
"For a moment, nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen."
Douglas Adams
I am very excited about this game coming out, it seems lovely and it's quite a shame that Kid Icarus didn't get more games. Well, the only problem of mine is that I don't have 3DS and money. Though I might try saviing some to get 3DS just to play this, Zelda and Pokemon.
Anime OVA... by studio I.G. Oh Dear God, this couldn't be more epic. Wonderful. Really wonderful!
It is official , They must like to make characters look angry in the American box art over the happy looking Japanese box art. I mean that by they way Pit looks different on the American box art compared to the Japanese one. That being since they have Pit on the Japanese looks happy while he looks like he is angry on the North American box art. Though this ain't the first time they have done this. There has been countless times they did the same thing pin the box art of Kirby games like Squeak Squad for example.
But besides the point , It can be any day now till they announce the stylish stand for Europe. Though it might seem like Nintendo of Europe might has spared Europe of one of the pointless looking 3DS accessories ever. But hey , It's still a long way till March 23rd and that they might announce it for Europe before then. Hope so since that everywhere got the bundled in new accessory for a system in the past.
Oh... the irony
natie respect Takahashi Meijin. He is Champion. He can push a button continuously no less than 16 times in 1 second. It's sooooooooooooo great!!
"For a moment, nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen."
Douglas Adams
I can't help but roll my eyes at people crying about the stand. It's free. If you don't want to use it, don't. You paid nothing for it. So it's not even a thing. Be forced to pay an extra $20 for an add-on so you can actually be able play the game and then we'll talk. Until then, please, be quiet.

... Well looks like hardcoreers have some new amusement in for them
This is why I never want Zelda to have voice acting... Pit's voice isn't so bad, but everything else is god-awful.
I like the stand. The thing about holding the 3DS is that the 3D goes funny as your hands shake. The stand keeps the screen steady, though it takes away from the whole "portable" aspect.
How is the Voice acting awful? There are a bunch of A list VA's voicing it, I mean seriously Johnny Young Bosch is voicing Pit
JYB is kind of everywhere, though. And he doesn't seem to have a lot of voice range. Tara Strong, while she's also everywhere, has much more voice range.
Voice acting? Again? We've been through this already. Also, in my opinion, Bosch is the only and weakest link from what I've heard in the trailers. Oh well, no more complaining! At least we have him and he doesn't sound like Renton or Ichigo.
I really like the sound of the adjustable difficulty level.
It's something I think way more Nintendo games need to have.
I find Kid Icarus Uprising takes a nod from the Tales series having the combination of a difficulty gauge for future play-throughs and having loads of collectibles that can't be collected completely in one play-through. To boot, there's the online multiplayer.
This game isn't being released for another 2 months. Hopefully Project Sora will have time to think of a couple better solutions for the games controls.
I have claimed Marcus Fenix
^ Dont they really only need to fix the camera issue with the stylus?

Plan for Adding Gnome to LSB
The following Gnome libraries make up an appropriate/necessary base layer which could be included in the LSB:
- gtk+
- gdk
- gdk_pixmap
- pango
- atk
- glib
- gmodule
- gthread
- libgprint/ui
- gconf
- libglade
These are the base libraries that are recommended for an application to use. The interface list extracted from each of these will be reviewed by the Gnome project, and deprecated interfaces will be pruned at the beginning. Overall, there will be 2000-3000 interfaces.
The Gnome project has produced a versioned snapshot (2.6.2) of the documentation for these libraries so there's something specific to which the LSB could point. This can be found at http://www.gtk.org/api.
There are some tests available, but like most other libraries LSB has looked at, coverage is not complete. Sun created the gtkvts which can be found in the gnome cvs tree. Each of the modules listed above have some tests normally used for make check, which we can use in a manner similar to what was done for C++ (that is, wrap them so they can be run by one of our harnesses, either tet or qmtest).
Current source/library breakdown
These libraries are all released as part of a GNOME Platform release. Most of them are also released separately as the gtk project. The breakdown is as follows for the 2.6.0 gtk release as of December 2004:
- atk-1.9.0: atk
- glib-2.6.0: glib, gmodule, gobject, gthread
- gtk-2.6.0: gdk, gdk-pixbuf, gtk
- pango-1.8.0: pango
Should gobject be in the above list?
The other four libraries mentioned are in the GNOME 2.8.2 Platform release, currently GConf-2.8.1, libglade-2.4.1, libgnomeprint-2.8.1 and libgnomeprintui-2.8.1. Note that also available from a platform release are libxml2 and libxslt, which are tracked separately as LSB candidates (these do have a separate upstream).
Implementation Notes
In building the gtk set, these were discovered:
- gtk wants libtiff and libjpeg, it will configure without them but claims functionality may be lost
- pango wants to use Xft, and requires Freetype
- Xft has a dependency on fontconfig (and at least one of the gtk set would also like to have it)
- these will really be happier with the Xrender library
With the exception of tiff and jpeg, the X11 build can be configured to provide these. But what should we do with all these libraries? A build configured as just described in the lsbsi leaves us with the following shared library list. Are all these really required in lsb-graphics to support the gtk libs?
- libexpat.so.0.4.0, libfontconfig.so.1.0.4, libfontenc.so.1.0, libfreetype.so.6.3.6, libFS.so.6.0, libGL.so.1.2, libICE.so.6.3, libSM.so.6.0, libX11.so.6.2, libXaw.so.6.1, libXaw.so.7.0, libXaw.so.8.0, libXcomposite.so.1.0, libXcursor.so.1.0.2, libXdamage.so.1.0, libXevie.so.1.0, libXext.so.6.4, libXfixes.so.3.0, libXft.so.1.1, libXft.so.2.1.2, libxkbfile.so.1.0, libxkbui.so.1.0, libXmu.so.6.2, libXmuu.so.1.0, libXpm.so.4.11, libXp.so.6.2, libXrender.so.1.2.2, libXRes.so.1.0, libXt.so.6.0, libXtst.so.6.1, libXxf86misc.so.1.1, libXxf86vm.so.1.0

Despite a temporary reprieve from some of the new rules under the health care law, business owners are growing increasing anxious about its looming implementation at the end of the year, according to a pair of recent surveys.
Only three out of every 10 small employers say they are prepared to comply with new regulations under the law, while seven in 10 say those regulations have made it more difficult to grow, according to a new survey from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, the percentage of firms expressing concerns over Obamacare have jumped by a double-digit margin since this time last year.
A quarter of business owners said they still do not even know what is required of them under the law, which was passed in March 2010.
"The impact of the health care law on small business gets worse with every day that passes," Rob Engstrom, the organization's senior vice president, said in a statement, noting that he expects "health care will be a defining issue for the business community" in next year's midterm elections.
The report comes on the heels of an announcement by the administration that it would not penalize businesses that elect not to provide health insurance to their employees next year, delaying what is known as the "employer mandate" provision until 2015. One of the most controversial pieces of the law, the mandate will require firms with more than 50 employees to either cover their workers or pay a fine to the federal government.
During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing on Wednesday, Mark Iwry, a senior official at the Treasury Department, said officials made the decision to provide "transition relief" after hearing concerns from employers about the time and costs associated with reporting requirements under the health care law.
Business groups celebrated the delay, and many argued the provision should be tossed out altogether, not just pushed back. House Republicans argued the same on Wednesday.
"While the temporary relief from the employer mandate was welcome news, it didn't solve the serious problems our local businesses are struggling with under ObamaCare," House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee Chairman Kevin Brady (R-Tex.) said in his opening statement. "In fact, the president's health care law, and its troubled implementation, is causing more confusion and more uncertainty which will continue to stop local businesses from hiring."
His points were supported by the results of a study released the same day by financial services firm Sageworks. In a survey of 300 accounting professionals who work with small businesses, two-thirds said the new health care changes are making it less likely that their clients will expand and add employees, compared to only 2 percent who said the law will help small businesses grow.
Sageworks Chairman Brian Hamilton said postponement of the employer mandate will only make it more difficult for employers to plan for the future.
"The recent delay in the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, and the uncertainty that accompanies such a delay, won't help the employment situation," he said." Private businesses are trying to map out their hiring and investment plans for the next 12 months, and a last minute delay like this will increase the likelihood that companies remain on the fence about hiring."
The Chamber survey, which polled 1,304 small business executives across the country, also showed that one in four small business owners said that the law has made it more difficult to add workers. The survey has a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points.
Overall, the majority of employers who responded to the survey (61 percent) do not plan to add workers next year.

Best recipes for feeding your toddler
Between the fussy eating habits and the determined 'I can do it!' attitude of your toddler, it can seem like Mission Impossible to encourage your child to eat anything that resembles a well-balanced meal. Now you can make your life a whole lot simpler (and stress-free!) by using our most popular recipes for toddlers:
Finger food
You toddler is much more likely to eat what's on her plate if she can pick it up and feed herself. One of the great toddler mealtime tactics is to serve a range of foods on a plate that she can select from. Try:
Family food
Mealtimes can be a battle with toddlers in the house, so keep things simple by choosing recipes that use familiar foods as their base. Recipes that include pasta or rice are often a big hit. Try:
Sweet snacks
You can almost bet money on the fact that your toddler will prefer to put something sweet in her mouth before choosing a savoury food. So the best thing you can do is to make sure that those sweet snacks also have some nutritional value. To avoid the empty calories of pre-packaged snacks, it's a great idea to make nutritious homemade snacks that are filling including:

Edit: After half day, my wife's Mac started having the same problem. I have then applied the solution that I found in the Apple
Mac Google Reader: Top 5 Apps for Free
RSS is a great thing and it's getting more famous each day. If you like RSS feeds, then you already know that Google Reader is the best way to sync and manage feeds. But if you do not want to work on its web interface, then you can get the desktop app.
Mac Reeder has received a lot of wow from people who are on the iOS. It is simple and anyone can understand its working in just a couple of minutes.It's free, plus it syncs nicely with Google Reader. This is a recent app and it will get better with updates.
Gruml is also a new application that has become popular. It is more like the traditional RSS reader, with a lot of features to enhance its beauty.
NetNewsWire is another famous reader and is quite similar to Gruml because it supports tabs and social network integration etc. There is a recent lighter version that you can get for free. NetNewsWire is probably the most famous one out there.
Caffeinated is another promising option. It lies somewhere between NetNewsWire and Gruml and supports social networks and is clutter free. We all are waiting for it. Its apps are quite stunning and the overall look is very appealing.
Vienna is the open source app that is like NetNewsWire and Gruml in both looks and features, except that it is simpler. It gives you a clutter free interface with all the important features. It has options for social networks and tabbed browsing. Though it does not have Google Reader presently, but it might soon be there.
So as you can see, there are a lot of great RSS reader apps working well with Google Reader. They work great, and get better with regular updates. Which app do you use? Or do you have some other app that is not in our list? Do let us know by sending your comments.

Thread: Settings and Data Recovery
Settings and Data Recovery

I posted my initial problems -HFS volume needs repair and question about recovering data in Anything Goes - obviously the wrong place, but did get help anyway.
I have done a startup fron the install disks and used DU. The report is the HFS is repaired.
But I still don't have any of the original settings in Mac applications (Mail, iPhoto, iTunes, Address Book, Safari, etc) The applications I've loaded still have the right settings.
Question 1 - is there any way to get settings back?
Question 2 - is there a free/inexpensive data recovery software I can download and is it any good?
Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.

|SPB 3D shell
I'm regularly scanning the Android Market and other sources for interesting apps. Often I find myself agreeing with the statement. There are good reasons why the statement can be true but fortunately it doesn't hold true in all cases.
I personally think that visual appearance of the app is secondary to its function. But truly high quality app should have both.
Fortunately there's no technical reason why Android app could not be visually beautiful or even stunning. Good visual design just is very very hard and requires talent. In my opinion not all apps need to be visually special. In most cases it is enough if the app look right for the function it is meant. Evernote is probably the best example of this approach. It is visually very simple but very functional and feels perfectly home in any Android phone.
I have gathered here some of the best looking apps I've encountered. This is meant to be a proof that Android apps can look good and in many cases do so. I hope that it can also serve as inspirement for app developers out there to aspire towards even better Android app ecosystem.
DreamCocktail Lite
DreamCocktail is a simple app that can help you to pick or find your drink. It is is visually exceptional. The app's theme is a book of drinks.
Landing page represents the books first page with a table of content. The drink standing on the front changes randomly.
The app allows searching drinks either by name or looks. Very elegant and informative list implementation.
Drink details are on three screens. A picture and two info screens. Navigating between the screens is done by swiping.
Dring images are gorgeous.
Even settings and about screens are very polished.
SPB Shell 3D
This home screen replacement is the single most impressive piece of software I've seen on Android platform. It is visually pleasing form every angle.
Interaction with the home screen is best demonstrated by a video. SPB promo video is worth watching.
Foodspotting lets user to upload and rate dishes served in restaurants. The app is simple but visually elegant and very usable.
Ever note is a perfect example of an app that is very simple but appealing visually. It cannot be said to be beautiful but it is very functional.
To give further credit to evernote I want to point out that it is available for many other mobile platforms like WinMo, iOS and Blackberry. Each of the apps are designed from the ground up to fit the platform.
Android apps can be beautiful but good design requires a lot of effort and skill. However, functionality is more important and applications can be made functional without perfect visual design skills. Once the functionality is perfected visuals can be improved. Android apps can be made look great!
