Does Exactly what it says
This is a simple app that does exactly what it says. It's a countdown timer. It remembers the last time it was set for which helps me: I use it so I don't dawdle at lunch hour longer than I should while listening to music. I keep the built in itunes timer for other uses where the times vary.
It's as simple as that. Functional and useful.
Love it, but buggy! Please fix!
I love the simple beauty of this sand timer. However it force closes when the timer has ended. I hope the developer can fix this! (iPhone 6+, version 9.2.1)

Gus W. Weiss
Gus W. Weiss was a White House policy adviser on technology, intelligence and economic affair and worked primarily on national security, intelligence and concerns on technology transfer to communist countries.
Weiss graduated from Vanderbilt University in Nashville. He received his MBA from Harvard University and taught at NYU where he also received a PhD in economics.[1]
- Under Presidents Nixon, Ford and Reagan, Weiss served as a foreign affairs officer and on the U.S. National Security Council.[2]
- Under President Carter, he was an assistant to the Secretary of Defense (Space Policy), a member of the Pentagon Defense Science Board and also of the US Intelligence Board.[2]
The Farewell Dossier[edit]
Weiss was also one of the people that worked on the Farewell Dossier.[3][4] The USSR collected western computer & scientific technology through espionage and used it on its national defense. One of the KGB defectors, Vetrov, submitted documents collected by the KGB and the potential targets to the French. French President Mitterrand then shared them with the US President Reagan. Mr. Weiss suggested that the US export whatever was on the potential targets list to the USSR, but that these items be modified, meaning sourced from the CIA, the Defense Department and the FBI. The products would look genuine, but fail once the USSR started operating them. One successful notable result was a massive fire in a European pipeline that could be seen from space.[3]
Weiss died on November 25, 2003[5] under what the UK newspaper The Independent has characterized as "mysterious circumstances".[6] His body was found on the walk beneath his upstairs apartment in the Watergate building in Washington, DC. The local medical examiner ruled his death a suicide, according to The Washington Post.[7] The Post obituary, which came twelve days after the fact, was the first local report that Weiss had died. It gave no reason for the suicide determination. The Post published its Weiss obituary six days after his hometown newspaper, the Nashville Tennesseean, had reported his death.[8] The Tennesseean did not know the cause of death. He was 72 years old.[9] It has been alleged that his fervent opposition to the Iraq war may have played a part in his death.

Shiro (白)Race: Human (Imanity)
Age: 11
Shiro is an 11 year old genius NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training), hikikomori (shut-in) gamer along with her step-brother, Sora which formed 『 』(Blank or Kuuhaku). She is the main female protagonist.
Shiro is described as a genius in logic and problems, but has difficulty understanding emotions or behaviour, relying on Sora to help her defeat human opponents such as Tet in their chess match. She also rarely shows much emotion at all on her face and, despite her genius intellect, speaks in short terse sentences. Shiro is extremely close to her brother, to the point of needing him by her side at all times to be comfortable. She is also shown to have a dry and somewhat twisted sense of humour, and displays signs of jealousy if Sora pays serious attention to other girls, showing she has a brother complex.

Lucedio Abbey, or Abbazia di Santa Maria di Lucedio is a twelfth-century former Cistercian foundation near Trino, which is now in the province of Vercelli, north-west Italy. It played an important role in the development of rice production in the region.
The abbey was founded in 1124; Renier, Marquess of Monferrato providing an extensive tract of marsh, heath and woodland known as Locez, on whose agricultural development the future prosperity of Lucedio would depend.
As the second daughter-house of La Ferté (after Tiglieto Abbey, in the Ligurian Apennines), this was one of the earliest Cistercian monasteries in Italy. Lucedio contributed in its turn to the expansion of the Cistercian Order by giving birth to three daughter-houses over the next eighty years: S. Maria di Chiaravalle della Castagnola (1147) in the Marche, Rivalta Scrivia (1180) near Tortona and Acqualunga (1204) near Pavia.
The Abbey's political ties to the Aleramici of Montferrat were shown in 1202 when its abbot, Peter II, accompanied the Marquess Boniface, grandson of Renier, on the notorious Fourth Crusade. After the sack of Constantinople in 1204 Boniface, as leader of the crusade, had expectations of being appointed the first emperor of the new Latin Empire. Abbot Peter was among the electors and is presumed to have been among the two or three who voted for Boniface.[{{fullurl:{{wikipedia:FULLPAGENAME}}}}#endnote_marin] The crown went to Baldwin, Count of Flanders who had the support of the Venetians.
Thwarted in this ambition, Boniface and his crusaders conquered Thessalonica and was installed by Baldwin as king of the Crusader state the Kingdom of Thessalonica, albeit under authority of Constantinople. Peter became Bishop of Ivrea (and later Patriarch of Antioch) and his long-time associate Ogliero (who was later beatified by the Church) took his place as Abbot of Lucedio in 1205. The abbey then housed fifty monks. In 1214 two further daughter-houses of Lucedio were founded in the Crusader states: Saint George de Jubino in the Principality of Antioch and Chortaïton in Thessalonica.
The abbey managed its agricultural assets employing the grange system and was effective in developing the productivity of the land, notably introducing the cultivation of rice to this damp riverside area in the fifteenth century. Today the Vercelli region is one of the most important areas of rice production in Italy.
From 1457, by an act of Pope Callixtus III, Lucedio was placed under commendatorial control, losing prestige and autonomy.
The abbey was secularized in 1784, the remaining monks being transferred to a Jesuit college in Castelnuovo Scrivia. The buildings and their lands have passed through various hands in subsequent years, including those of Napoleon Bonaparte, who gave it to Camillo Borghese in exchange for a large quantity of artworks which are now housed in the Louvre. Today the abbey buildings are incorporated into a rice farm.
The church — which became a parish church after the closure of the abbey — was extensively remodelled in the eighteenth century. Its striking medieval bell-tower however remains intact: a rectangular base from 1150–1175 supporting an octagonal structure from perhaps a hundred years later. It is currently undergoing extensive restoration work.

Dimitri Payet's agent has denied quotes attributed to West Ham's star player in which he was "100 per cent" staying at the club.
The Sun reported on Friday morning that the France international would not be quitting the club this summer in what appeared to be total commitment to the Hammers ahead of the new season.
Hours later, Payet's representative Jacques Olivier Auguste has done an interview in France in which he claims those quotes have been manufactured.
"I am surprised by this information because Dimitri has not done an interview with any media outlet," said Auguste to French publication Daily Mercato.
"The only thing that is certain is that he is enjoying his holidays that he deserves and he is licking the wounds caused by the EURO 2016 final defeat. So he is only thinking about recharging at the moment. These declarations are pure inventions in the imagination of a journalist. This deserved a response."
This throws new doubt on Payet's future and will be a source of frustration for West Ham fans who would have been delighted to have seen such a key player apparently committing his short-term future to the club.
The Frenchman has been linked with a mega-money transfer this summer on the back of his eyecatching displays for club and country in the last 12 months.
The PFA player of the year nominee signed a new five-year contract midway through last campaign and the club's co-owners David Gold and David Sullivan rated him in the £50million-£100million bracket earlier in the week.
The 29-year-old starred for France at Euro 2016 with brilliant late goals in both of his national side's opening victories and finished as a runner up in the tournament, after an extra-time 1-0 defeat to Portugal in the final.
Payet joined West Ham from Marseille last summer for around £12.5 million, and was integral to the Hammers sensational season, scoring 12 goals and providing 14 assists in all competitions.
Manager Slaven Bilic will be looking to know what his star man's decision is about his future as soon as possible with the new league season and Europa League qualifying fast approaching.
In other West Ham transfer news, Enner Valencia is closing in on a transfer to Lazio that could be worth £10million.

AHi, I'm making a triple chocolate layer cake and plan to cover the cake with sour cream ganache and fondant. My question is whether sour cream in the ganache will negatively react with the fondant. First time I used fondant, I had a carrot cake covered with cream cheese frosting and it was a total disaster.
Here is the recipe for the ganache: 340g dark chocolate, chopped 100g unsalted butter 2 tbsp golden syrup 60ml whole milk room temperature 110ml sour cream, at room temperature
Method: Melt the chocolate with the butter and golden syrup in a double boiler over barley simmering water. Remove from the heat and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the milk and sour cream. Leave to cool until it becomes the thickness of mayonnaise.
Any thoughts, ideas or experience with sour cream ganache under fondant? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
AI have made ganache with sour cream and white chocolate with no problems (it helps cut the sweetness of the white choc a little.)
I don't add anything else though, so I'm not sure how your recipe will turn out.
AFor anyone who is curious to know, the sour cream ganache worked fine under ganache because it dries/ crusts and doesn't cause the fondant to slide off as I feared.

The third straight day in the Alps won't be as intense as the previous two days. But stage 12 of the Tour de France will still require the peloton on Friday, July 13 to face the challenges of two category 1 climbs and some long, technical descents before a final category 3 climb to the finish.
The field will ride 140.4 miles from Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne to Annonay Davezieux with a small group breakaway a feasible scenario if the race leaders are willing to let them go.
Spain's Luis Léon Sanchez (Rabobank) and Simon Gerrans (Orica-GreenEdge) of Australia are strong breakaway riders and the profile could be conducive for debutant Peter Sagan (Liquigas-Cannodale) to go for it and claim his fourth stage of the race's 99th edition.
The 12th stage will also be unique since Sky teammates Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome are now first and second overall, with Frome trailing the race leader by 2:05.
Froome's aggressive ride in stage 11 resulted in some team confusion. And the result wasn't too far removed from a scenario in the mid 1980s between teammate icons Bernard Hinault and Greg LeMond.
The Tour last featured a stage finish in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne two years ago when Frenchman Sandy Casar (FDJ-BigMat) prevailed over Sanchez, who had beaten him the previous year in Saint-Girons.
The Tour de France is debuting in Annonay Davézieux, although the city has hosted stages of the Dauphiné Libere and Paris-Nice.
Tejay van Garderen (BMC), seventh overall and trailing by 6:57, is the leading American. Chris Horner is second among the seven remaining U.S. riders and is fourth among RadioShack Nissan riders. He's 15th overall, trailing by 12:41.
Tyler Farrar (Garmin-Sharp) became the race's Laterne Rouge in stage 11 and is now 167th and last overall, trailing by 2:20:40. It will be interesting to see if he remains in the event and if he does, if he can contend in any of the remaining sprinting stages.

Under the Roofs of Paris (René Clair, 1930)
Under the Roofs of Paris
, writer-director René Clair's sometimes shaky but often charming bridge between silent films and talkies, begins with cinematographer Georges Périnal's lovely crane shot that slowly descends from the rooftops of Paris -- actually the rooftops of art director Lazare Meerson's elaborate and ingenious set -- to the street where song-plugger Albert (Albert Préjean) is conducting a singalong of "Sous les Toits de Paris," the film's French title song, trying to sell copies of the sheet music. As the camera pans around the crowd, we meet several more characters prominent in the film: the thief Émile (Bill Bocket), who is carefully lifting small valuables from women's purses; the dandyish gangster Fred (Gaston Modot); and a pretty young Romanian woman, Pola (Pola Illéry), who becomes a target for both Émile's thievery and Fred and Albert's attentions. Albert is a success at selling the song, as we see in a vertical pan up the façade of an apartment building, from each window of which comes the sound of someone singing it. This beautiful shot demonstrates how quickly Clair, a reluctant convert, caught on to the innovations possible in sound films. It may have influenced Rouben Mamoulian's brilliant montage in
Love Me Tonight
(1932), which tracks from Maurice Chevalier singing "Isn't It Romantic?" in his Paris tailor shop as the song spreads across country to Jeanette MacDonald singing it in her château. But Clair also displays some of the uncertainty of silent filmmakers in his dialogue scenes, which have the curious sluggish pace found in early talkies whose directors haven't figured out the rhythm of scenes that aren't interrupted by intertitles. In fact, Clair uses synchronized dialogue sparingly: There are a lot of scenes in which we don't hear what characters are saying, sometimes because the music in the bar where they're talking is too loud, and sometimes because we're viewing them through windows and glass doors. Much of the film uses familiar silent storytelling techniques -- to good effect. The story deals with Albert's ill-fated love for Pola, which develops when Fred steals her house key, making it necessary for her to spend the night (chastely and comically) in Albert's apartment. But then Albert is caught with some of Émile's loot -- the thief has stashed it in Albert's room -- and sent to jail. During his absence, Pola falls for Albert's friend Louis (Edmond T. Gréville), leaving things to be resolved at the film's bittersweet end, when the camera tracks away from Albert plugging a new song back up to the rooftops. The film plays on a characteristic fascination with Parisian lower-class life that includes slumming well-dressed upper-class types dropping in on the dives to see how the other half lives -- a motif that recurs in other French films set in the Paris underworld, like Jacques Becker's

getting drunk ..
i dont get drunk around my children, i will have a beer or 2 while their around to relax(: now if my kids are spending the night with my babysitter, i make them(babysitter) clear of my plans, my kids will stay at their home, and i will pick them up in the morning after a night of over drinking and dancing.
That's wise of you and better for your children. I grew up witnessing drunkedness and have no desire to be a part of it. Funny how things affect you from your childhood, isn't it?
I'm with you. The times I get drink are pretty few and far between nowdays. I have gone out a couple times with girlfriends while my husband was home with the kids. He knew before I left the house that he was responsible for them the entire night, and into the next morning
I don't drink very often, but when I do the kids aren't around if I am planning to have more than one or two. I might have a beer or a glass of wine at home but no getting drunk. I;m always worried something will happen and I will need to drive.
That's really good! You sound like a very responsible mama! :)

Synthesis of the C-disaccharide alpha-C(1 -> 3)-L-fucopyranoside of N-acetylgalactosamine
Radical C-glycosidation of racemic 5-exo-benzeneselenyl-6-endo-chloro-3-methylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept an-2-one ((+/-)-2) with alpha -acetobromofucose (3) provided a mixture of alpha -C-fucosides that were reduced with NaBH4 to give two diastereomeric alcohols that were separated readily. One of them ((-)-6) was converted into (-)-methyl 2-acetamido-4-O-acetyl-2,3-dideoxy-3-C(3',4',5'-tri-O-acetyl-2',6'-anhyd ro- 1',7'-dideoxy-alpha -L-glycero-D-galacto-heptitol-1'-C-yl)-alpha -D-galactopyranuronate ((-)-11) and then into (-)-methyl 2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-3-C-(2',6'-anhydro- 1',7'-dideoxy-alpha -L-glycero-D-galacto-heptitol- 1'-C-yl)-beta -D-galactopyranoside a new alpha -C(1 -->3)-L-fucopyranoside of N-acetylgalactosamine. Its H-1 NMR data shows that this C-disaccharide (alpha -L-Fucp-(1 -->3)CH2-beta -D-GaINAc-OMe) adopts a major conformation in solution similar to that expected for the corresponding O-linked disaccharide, i.e., with antiperiplanar sigma (C-3',C-2') and sigma (C-1',C-3) bonds.

¡¡Bienvenidos a todos!! Welcome all! IBK is here (also known as El SuperSayajin Mexicano) talking to you about something that probably was talked about before on this wiki but maybe not quite like this. After all I could talk to you guys about," Whose your fav character!" But that subject has been milked to death a million times so forget that!I asked myself when I was bored,"what makes a real fan?" You would think that question is rather simple and can be annoyingly answered in a little sentence. But really, what does it take to become a genuine fan of a character? (I am mainly referring to animated characters) Does it take more than simply liking how the character looks? (He looks badass!!!) Does it take more than just saying something like, "Aang ROCKS!!!" Clearly, one would show more "alliegance" to a character than just that. Some people write fanons that are so detailed that they can clearly become their own series, with plenty of chapters, depth of personalites, and overall drama. Others write insanely long charcter reviews detaling just about every aspect of whatever character they are talking about. Others, whether they are veteran artists or not, start drawing their favorite characters in several ways; to draw them the way they wish they would have looked, draw them in scenes of random show they appear in, make simply character portraits, etc. Very talented people even make music videos as a show of respect to their favorite character and may even animate scenes for their fav characters as well!! Others are brave enough to wear shirts representing their fav characters despite the possibilitly of being made fun of, being called a nerd, or harrassed. All of these things can be taken as things that a 'real" fan would do to show their admiration. So are you a real fan? Can you prove it? Then comment away then. XD
However, is it possible to become too obssessed with some cartoon character? Yes, it is. I have seen for myself and heard about people liking their characters a bit too much. They show so much devotion to their character that eventually their lives may revolve around them. This obsession almost ALWAYS leads to sexual desires. (this is probably where fanon hentai comes from lol) It frustrates me, for example, when I look up pictures of my all time fav Azula, that some several dozen porno- like pics come up. I say to myself,"c'mon, for real, all I want is a nice background pic and this shows up?" Lets face it, almost every "real" fan thinks about those kind of things once or twice. It may be normal to think of those things every now and then(hopefully, this would only occur very rarely lol), but if you start telling people this or you draw sexual related things for your character, then it becomes not so normal. I am an CRAZY Azula fanatic and probably always will be, but I just like any other sensible person, would not fall into this crazy land of hentai/porno character devotion.
So basically, this blog is a 2 part blog(or rather, a blog with 2 paragraphs to respond to, lol) and hearing from you guys is always a joy. So by all means, comment like crazy and tell me what YOU think what makes a real fan and when it can possibly become obsessive. Man this is going to be good! (No se abstengan, cuentame lo que ustedes realmente creen al respecto)

Perry Marshall – 80/20 Life Hacks
Sale page: http://www.sofly.org/tutorials-list/perry-marshall-80-20-life-hacks-5-mp3-9-pdf_3icka.html
Here is part of the pitch:
Dear Marketing Professional:
Those who possess the right hacks succeed by accident more easily than most folks succeed on purpose.
There are TWO secrets to hitting your goals and resolutions for 2014:
Use SYSTEMS INSTEAD OF DISCIPLINE to enforce the new patterns in your life
If you must develop a new habit, choose a habit that requires LESS discipline than your old habit required
Example? Here's one from my own business…
The business "dashboard". My dashboard tells me what and how my business is doing RIGHT NOW.
My dashboard delivers the 5% of information about my company that tells me 50% of what's really going on. It automatically steers me in a better direction every day. No more wasting hours hunting, emailing and phoning staff with requests for info. No more pecking and dumping stuff into spreadsheets.
It frees me to think bigger. And make superior decisions. Vastly superior.
In our webinar series, "80/20 Life Hacks" I'll share the numbers I keep my eye on, and the technology I use to deliver the info.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg cuz we're delivering 20 more.
And You Get to Apply 80/20 to My 80/20 Life Hacks
You don't need to implement all 21. That wouldn't be 80/20 thinking. But I guarantee at least 2 or 3 will resonate with you. 2 or 3 will yield immediate results. You'll be able to put at least 2 or 3 in practice and start building your systems, this week.

The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace. Your Pontiac dealership isn't the only place to locate genuine or original equipment quality parts to repair your Bonneville. Pontiac vehicle owners have come to expect a certain level of dependability when driving their Bonneville around town. Obviously, you didn't buy your Bonneville unless you knew that you wanted performance and great value both impeccably combined into one car, truck, or SUV.
Your Pontiac Bonneville uses liquid coolant to maintain a constant temperature in the engine, and if there were a heart in that motor it would be the water pump. It rotates in-sync with the crankshaft via a belt that connects pulleys on each part. Along with the radiator, thermostat, and a system of hoses and cooling pipes, your Pontiac Bonneville water pump dependably promulgates the water and ethylene glycol mixture through the engine; keeping operating temperatures down below the boiling point. If it fails, then the coolant temperature will soar and your engine block or cylinder head will crack.
Don't let a Water Pump repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the highest quality replacement parts. When your Pontiac requires a new replacement Water Pump, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Procuring new Pontiac parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement Bonneville parts on the internet. All the Pontiac Bonneville Water Pump parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979, 1978, 1977, 1976, 1975, 1974, 1973, 1972, 1971, 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1966, 1965, 1964, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1960, 1959, 1958, 1957.

Have you seen the cover of Time magazine this week? It has a picture of a mom, Jamie Lynne Grumet, breastfeeding her three-year-old son for the cover story on attachment parenting called "Are You Mom Enough? Why Attachment Parenting Drives Some Mothers to Extremes–and How Dr. Bill Sears became their Guru." There are other pictures of mamas nursing in the magazine, too, and you can see the cover photo and some of the other pictures here: Behind the Cover: Are You Mom Enough?.
As a mom who breastfed all four of her children when they were older and who is an advocate of attachment parenting, I definitely want to buy a copy of the magazine so I can read the articles in it. I saw on codenamemama.com an article about Kroger Pulling Time Magazine From Registers. She wrote:
It appears that Kroger's corporate office made the decision to pull the issue from the front registers. Kroger stores nationwide have removed the issue at least from their registers, if not entirely from their stores.
I was planning on buying it at Fred Meyer (owned by Kroger) and so I called to see if our local Fred Meyer has it. An employee looked for me, and I was disappointed when she said she couldn't find it. :-/ I hope that doesn't mean that they aren't carrying it.
I think it's amazing and good that breastfeeding an older child is being discussed. I don't know what the articles in the magazine say, but the fact that the topic has been brought to light in the public eye provides a great opportunity because the only way it will become the norm in this country is if people become more educated about it and see how normal and good it is. I am saddened by thoughts expressed that make fun of it, call it gross or inappropriate. Those who write such comments show that they do not know much about it and do not understand it. Breastfeeding an older child is the norm worldwide. Also, we can see it in the Bible as well — read the story of Samuel. Just because we don't commonly see it here in the USA doesn't mean it's strange or extreme. One of the moms who took part in the photoshoot has a blog called Code Name: Mama, and she wrote an article about it called TIME Magazine Cover: Extended Breastfeeding Does Not Equal Extreme. I love how she explained why her son (age four) still nurses. She wrote:
So you see, nursing past infancy simply does not feel extreme to us. Why does my son still nurse?
He nurses because I am his warm, safe place.
I found that to be true as well. Each of my children weaned at a different age. My first daughter was still nursing (but nursing less and less) at age four, my second child nursed until he was two and a half, my third child weaned sometime after her third birthday, and my fourth child nursed until he was five and a half (he just nursed at bedtime by then). It never felt extreme, and I didn't feel like I was better than any other mother. My children got older one day at a time, and if the day before they weren't "too old" to nurse, why would they be too old the next day? I wanted to meet each of my children's unique needs. It continued to provide good health benefits but also it provided emotional nourishment and helped meet their needs for security and love. Nursing them as they grew older until their nursing needs were met and their time of full weaning from the breast was reached was natural and good and beautiful.
ETA: 5/13/2012 We went to Barnes and Noble today (Sunday) to see if they had this magazine. We couldn't find it, so we asked a cashier. He said they hadn't gotten it yet, but that it should be there tomorrow.

Black Fondant Looking Gray
Baking By momsfortwo Updated 5 May 2010 , 8:11am by SpecialtyCakesbyKelli
I need black fondant but only had regular white on hand. I added black gel food color. By the time I rolled it out and put it on my cake it seemed more blackish gray than true black. Any ideas on if this is due to not having added enough color, or maybe using too much powdered sugar to roll it out?
Have you let it sit for a while? Sometimes the color will darken over time. I dye mine and then let it sit over night. Sometimes you end up having to put more color in it the next morning. The best bet is to purchase black and red fondant... I always keep satin ice black and red on hand...just takes too much color and time to get it the right shade.

Conference paper
Constrained spectrum control using MPC
Well-known model predictive control (MPC) theory for constrained linear time-invariant (LTI) systems is extended to accommodate hard constraints and cost penalizations on the spectra of the system's output trajectories. Thus the proposed method facilitates enforcing constraints, and placing weights, on the harmonic content of input-, state- and output-trajectories, in addition to the usual constrained control objectives. The proposed methods are demonstrated by the example problem of reducing torsional vibrations in a drive-shaft.
Keywords: Nonlinear Model Predictive Control ; Short-time Fourier Transform ; Set Invariance

The reality star's boyfriend Nathan Griffith shares the baby news on a Twitter post, uploading a photo of baby Kaiser's feet.
Jenelle Evans has given birth to her second child, another baby boy. The "Teen Mom 2" star and her boyfriend Nathan Griffith's first child together arrived on Sunday, June 29 at 1:57 P.M., weighing in at 7 pounds, 1 ounce, MTV News reports. Evans and Griffith named their son Kaiser. The newborn baby joins Evans' 5-year-old son Jace and Griffith's daughter Emery.
The proud father took to Twitter on Monday to share the good news. He shared a glimpse at the baby boy's little feet, writing, "And you thought we were at the beach... Sike!!!" Evans retweeted the post and commented in a separate post, "Trickkkked yaaaaa."
News of Evans' second pregnancy emerged in December. Speaking to Us Weekly earlier this year, Evans said that she was considering some unique names for her second child before deciding on Kaiser. "We were basically searching for baby names on the Internet, and we came up with a bunch of different unique ones. We didn't want something that everyone else had or had even heard before, even us. So we wanted something different, and we ended up looking up Kaiser," she explained.
Evans celebrated the baby shower in late May. She later shared photos from the fun bash. One of them showed Griffith cutting a blue cake. The next day, Evans showed off her pregnant belly in a selfie. "Any day now Kaiser. Mommy ribs r about to break.. Seriously," she wrote.
And you thought we were at the beach... Sike!!! pic.twitter.com/3wobSVT63G— N.J. Griffith (@GroundLevelUp) June 30, 2014

How embedding works with older versions of Dreamweaver (DW8)?Asked by artdir on November 05, 2014 at 02:09 PM
I've built a form to be used in a small real estate site, but when I plug in the code in Dreamweaver 8, all my design work disappears, and I have no idea where the form is without viewing the page in a browser. Am I missing something in the upload to Dreamweaver?
Also, there are a lot of code validation issues when pasting into Dreamweaver 8. Any suggestions?AND, one last thing...how can I make the submit button send the email to my email account? I don't see any place to insert the code.
JotForm Support
Thank you for contacting us.
Can you try to use an iFrame version of the form in your Dreamweaver to see if it works better?
I think that you can ignore the code validations errors. We use up to date code including HTML5, so this might be not properly validated by the old Dreamweaver.
If you need any further assistance on this, please let us know.

I just got out of an almost 6 year relationship.. but I'm young. Only 21. This relationship has been going downhill for about a year now, so you can say that my heart has been wandering. There's a guy I've known throughout college that I've had my eyes on for quite awhile. He's been open and flirty about how he'd date me if I was single etc. Well, after things ended with my ex, we hooked up on a whim at a party. He made it very clear that he enjoyed it and continued to contact me about meeting up after work etc (we are coworkers as well). This happened a couple more times but I was starting to develop feelings that I didn't want to ruin with sex. Since I was pretty sure he liked me too, I confronted him. Apparently I was bold in that decision because he told me he wasn't sure how he feels. I told him if that was the case, then I'd back off... but he continues to send mixed messages. He flirts with me and makes it obvious that he's into me, but doesn't go out of his way to hang out with me or actually SHOW interest whenever we aren't together. He is not easy to read and it actually drives me insane. I know he's had one relationship and it was pretty damaging. I'm not sure if he's scared to start a new one because I'm fresh out of a relationship or if he doesn't actually like me. Should I play aloof? I've literally talked to him about my feelings countless times and he keeps confusing me.. Did I scare him away with the R word? Do I give up or keep having hope? PS we are no longer hooking up for fear it might ruin something potential.
Most Helpful Guy
Sounds like he's just looking for a booty call. Since you've told him you don't want sex, he isn't interested.10|10|0

|KeyTrak at Princeton University
When incidents such as robberies occur on campus, it's important for safety officials to be able to reference a verifiable report of who had access to dorm, office and classroom keys.
However, using pegboards and a manually updated log book to keep track of thousands of keys can be cumbersome, time-consuming and, worst of all, hazardous.
With an undergraduate population of more than 8,000 students and 180 buildings, Princeton University in Princeton, NJ, recognized the need to automate its key control processes. The Public Safety Department managed so many keys — about 800 — that, according to Communications Manager Don Kanka, the staff had issues "knowing where keys were or who had them." The department turned to KeyTrak to get it assets under control.
Once the key control system was up and running, Princeton's public safety officers were able to get an up-to-the-minute audit trail detailing who has keys, when they were checked out and the reason they were accessed.
Princeton's key and asset management system is also able to alert campus safety officials through an email or text the moment specific events occur, such as when keys are overdue, accessed outside of normal office hours or taken by an unauthorized user.
By using a computerized key control system to balance access and openness with safety and accountability, campuses can do their due diligence to keep students and faculty safe. To read the full story about Princeton's experience with electronic key control, click here to download the PDF.

Neutrons may spotlight cancers
Doctors often image patients' tissues using X rays, magnetic resonance imaging, or various other approaches. A new experiment suggests that scans by beams of fast-moving neutrons may someday join the ranks of diagnostic-imaging tools.
Tumors often accumulate elevated concentrations of elements such as calcium and zinc. By making patterns of these elements visible, neutron scans could potentially reveal aberrant cellular function even before the smallest tumor forms, says Carey Floyd Jr. of Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C.
When an energetic neutron strikes an atom, it causes the nucleus to emit a gamma ray of a wavelength that's specific to the element. In a test of the feasibility of imaging elements in this way, Floyd and his colleagues depicted a slice of a set of bars containing either copper or iron. By stacking such slices, a scanner could create a three-dimensional picture.

Online Acquisition of Video Games Growing in Canada
According to a new report by The NPD Group, "Video Game Acquisition in Canada," Canadian gamers are slowly shifting towards digital properties and away from traditional, packaged video games. The study polled 4,006 gamers across Canada, ranging from age 13-54, between September 2010 and February 2011.
According to the report, an estimated $84 million were spent on games through digital downloads. Sixty-five (65) percent of games were purchased via physical retail outlet.
Still, the study showed that some gamers are reluctant to buy through a digital download—88 and 81 percent of console and portable gamers, respectively, chose to purchase physical copies of games. Additionally, PC and Mac gamers totaled 20 percent of those who reported they have acquired at least one game via a social networking channel.
Of those who prefer to buy a physical copy, 58 percent say it's because they just like having a physical copy, while 35 percent say they like going to the store because it has other things they need. The report also analyzed traditional gamers and the growing amount of gamers that are emerging from the smartphone and tablet markets.
Report: Kids Socialize Differently As They Grow Older, No Effect on Toy Playing
According to a new report by The NPD Group, Kids Leisure Time IV, as kids get older they socialize with others in different ways, replacing person-to-person communication with other forms of socialization, such as social networks, cell phones, and video chats, which may be considered another form of entertainment. According to the report, kids ages 2 to 4 spent 17.5 hours per week spending actual face time with friends or siblings, with the average hours per week dropping off as they aged (10.8 hours for ages 9 to 12).
While kids have the same number of hours to spend on leisure time (68 leisure hours in a typical week), they have more activities that they are engaging in, requiring them to reprioritize how they spend their time, reported NPD.
Although kids may be engaging in more activities, and have new forms of entertainment, NPD says this has minimal impact on kids' interaction with toys; unlike movies, kids are still as actively engaged with toys as they were in the past few years. NPD reports that kids may even be spending slightly more hours per week with toys than they did in 2009.
Report: Toys Most Popular With Kids Ages 3 to 8 in Q4 2010
The NPD Group released the fourth quarter 2010 (October through December) results from its Kids Industry Data Service (KIDS), a monthly, syndicated tracking service that provides users with statistics about purchases made for kids—from birth through age 14.
According to the report, the categories that captured the most dollar share for kids during that period were apparel or accessories with 17 percent, toys or board games with 14 percent, and video game system hardware, and video games or PC game software, with 11 percent and 10 percent, respectively. Footwear rounded out the top five with 8 percent.

A new trailer of the game Dark Souls 2 was released by From Software. The trailer only gives the story-line of the game play and does not suggest any changes contemplated by the company. The gameplay places deeper emphasis on the story and there are formidable monsters and dingy caves to be explored.
The minute details of the game are not known except for the platforms it is to be released. From software announced the game during the Spike VGAs, where the trailer of the game also made its debut. Xbox 360 and Play Station3 along with the PC would receive the game as announced by Namco Bandai.
The development of the gameplay is managed by From Software, along with Hidetaka Miyazaki, the series creator and Tomohiro Shibuya, the director known for the Monster Hunter Series. The game play will be a sure-shot entertainment posing new challenges and struggles making the series a promising one.
From software had launched its PC version of the game in the name Dark Souls: Prepare to Die edition. The game which was originally designed to be a console exclusive was converted to a PC compatible format following the petitions to Namco Bandai asking for the PC version. The company is new to the PC format of the games and this resulted in numerous flaws in the game. The PC version is probably noteworthy only for the fact that it gives you new bosses to get into fights with and a better frame rate.
The game Dark Souls 2 is extremely difficult being a sequel to Play Station 3- exclusive RPG, Demon Souls. The players should be careful to stop themselves and monitor the environment before being destroyed by the monster. Both the games have severe punishments for death.
These games allow multiplayer modes too. You can allow other players see you fight monsters and die if you are connected to the internet. The other players can also help you kill your enemy or they may turn enemies themselves and kill you. The game does not contain any inherent messaging system on the ground to inform other players about a foe up ahead or requesting for an aid.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Several stocks trading near $5 were poised to move on above-average volume during Monday's session. Smart Modular Technologies ( SMOD) shares rallied by 87 cents, or 14.3%, to $6.95 in the premarket session after the memory subsystems company raised its fiscal second-quarter earnings guidance to a range of 14 cents to 16 cents a share, well ahead of the Thomson Reuters average estimate of 8 cents a share. The company's second-quarter revenue guidance is also above consensus. Smart Modular also offered better-than-expected earnings and revenue guidance for its fiscal third quarter. The 50-day average daily volume for Smart Modular is 622,000, according to the Nasdaq. Cosan Limited ( CZZ) jumped by 60 cents, or 7.7%, to $8.40 in the premarket session after Reuters reported that the sugar and ethanol company signed a $12 billion ethanol deal with Royal Dutch Shell ( RDS.A). The three-month average daily volume for Cosan is 1.8 million, according to Yahoo! Finance. Ness Technologies ( NSTC) gained by 45 cents, or 8.1%, to $5.99 in the premarket session after the business services company won a public tender worth $19 million to provide online land registry services to the Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre Authority of the Slovak Republic. The 50-day average daily volume for Ness Technologies is 160,000. Highway Holdings ( HIHO) jumped by 24 cents, or 13.4%, to $2.02 in the premarket session after the integrated manufacturer reported a fiscal third-quarter profit of 7 cents a share, more than doubling year-ago results. The 50-day average daily volume for Highway Holdings is 15,000.

Two esteemed observers of U.S. politics will provide live assessments of the four presidential and vice-presidential debates for the Globe and Mail. The author, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist David Shribman, writes for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, where he is executive editor. Journalist and speechwriter John O'Sullivan is a writer and editor-at-large of the conservative magazine the National Review.
Could this election be any closer? Former Governor Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama tangled Monday against the backdrop of the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News Poll showing the two men deadlocked at 47 per cent. They exchanged digs, broke little new ground, repeated familiar talking points. And when they were done, there was every reason to believe the contest would be deadlocked two weeks later, when most Americans are to go to the polls and choose their president.
This confrontation in Boca Raton, Fla., was the third 90-minute exchange between the two, and when it was completed there could hardly be an American alive who yearned for a fourth and very likely hardly an American voter who switched sides. The two candidates, whose appeals and attacks have filled American television sets (and computer screens) for weeks, seemed scripted if not downright stale.
The evening was predictable and pedestrian, without the Obama sizzle of debate No. 2 nor the snoozy Mr. Obama of debate No. 1, qualities that underline the character of this election and most others in which an incumbent president is seeking a second term: The challenger must make the most of the opportunity presented by a contest that is implicitly a referendum on the occupant of the White House even as he struggles to win a hearing, and approval, for his proposals and his profile as a potential president.
For that reason it was no surprise to see Mr. Obama emphasize his status as the experienced steward of foreign policy, the incumbent's natural advantage. And it wasn't astonishing to witness Mr. Romney repeatedly trying to steer the conversation to the economy, the challenger's natural advantage at a time of economic distress.
There was some agreement. Both concurred with the continued use of drones in the fight against terrorism. Not every American agrees, but these two did. Mr. Obama called America the "indispensable nation" and Mr. Romney characterized the United States as "the hope of the earth." Not everyone across the world agrees, but these two did.
But most of the evening they did fight fiercely. Mr. Obama jabbed at his rival, saying "you haven't been in a position" to exercise foreign policy. Mr. Romney mounted an offensive of his own, telling the president that "attacking me is not an agenda." There was more. Mr. Romney jibed that the president had undertaken an "apology tour" that projected weakness rather than strength abroad. Mr. Obama threw a dig at his opponent, saying that when he took a pre-presidential foreign trip he didn't, as Mr. Romney did, take big donors along.
American elections very rarely are decided on foreign policy, the theme of this debate; the few modern exceptions are 1940 and 1944 and perhaps 1952 and 1980. Both candidates characterized the economy as a threat to national security, which gave them a chance to reprise some of their well-rehearsed lines from their stump speeches.
For minutes on end, the debate seemed to be a cable re-run of a syndicated television program. Mr. Romney said China was a currency manipulator and a world-trade cheater. Mr. Obama said that under his leadership America is more respected abroad than it was when he took office four years ago. Those who have followed this campaign attentively surely rolled their eyes in recognition of these old chestnuts, roasted again in the Florida heat.
And so the debate was thoroughly unremarkable, though it is safe to say that this was the first time the nation Mali has ever been employed in a nationally televised political debate. Mr. Romney introduced Mali twice, though he failed to transform the West African nation into the 2012 version of Quemoy and Matsu, the two Chinese islands that were a point of contention between Vice-President Richard M. Nixon and Senator John F. Kennedy in 1960.
So now a moment of relief. We're well and truly done with the debates. A grateful nation breathes a sigh of satisfaction. It's only a fortnight till the election. Bring it on. Time to stop the talking, time to start the deciding.

i met this guy online four months ago and we are still talking from time to time and he is a nice guy. I used to like him at first but now I feeling am falling for him... and well, he always says things that I want to hear, he is 33and I am 25 and totally from different continents, But we are from the same country. We want to meet each other in real life somewhere in the near future.. but I don't know about that. there isn't a day that passed by without thinking about him and honestly, I'm afraid that I will fall in love with him. but at the same time, I want to. He confides about his everyday problems with me most of the time and he is the type of person who doesn't tell you his personal stuff that easily. I can feel that he easily opened up to me. he all the time tells me that he cares for me. well, maybe as a friend only but sometimes he puzzles me by saying things like " when I talk to you I feel happy, I miss you " or " if you're here we would have gone that or this place, I would do anything for you " or " I cannot wait to meet up " but am not sure about the whole situation, it confuses me that he will want to settle down with someone from a different country ? while we both have our lives and careers in our countries.
Most Helpful Girl
Honestly, I would do my best to try to take a step back and analyze the situation logically. I know you feel now that you have this incredible connection, but what if it's totally different in real life? When you meet someone online, you only know what they choose to show you, and they can be anyone they want to be because, hey, you'll never know differently, right? He may be a completely different person offline. Even when you meet someone the old-fashioned way, in person at first vs. online first, it takes awhile to learn who they really are, because at first they'll try to impress you. Imagine how magnified that is online? They can be anyone they want to be, especially if they live in a different country. I would think that it would not be wise to meet this man in person. He may not be at all what he says and, in fact, he may even be dangerous. I realize it is hard now, but I promise it will be easier eventually and you will meet someone.
Because, even if he is who he says he is, what would happen if you fell for each other? Would either of you just be willing to give up everything, your family and friends and jobs and entire LIVES? I would try to distance myself from him. I honestly can't see it ending well. I wish you the best of luck with whatever you choose. :)00|00|0
thank you , I guess I needed to hear that :)
Anytime :) Thanks for Best Answer!

It's hard not to notice the radical styling of the 2008 HUMMER H2, and reviews read by TheCarConnection.com found plenty to like in this hulking vehicle.
For the most part, reviewers find the 2008 HUMMER H2 to be a refreshing mix of the original H1's commando charm and traditional luxury SUVs—and in the case of the 2008 HUMMER H2 SUT, a short-bed pickup truck. Kelley Blue Book enjoys the fact that the "doors are neatly flush with the rest of the body panels," but also admires rugged touches such as "exposed latches, lift handles and fasteners." Car and Driver agrees, stating that the H2 is "still dominated by big, simple shapes, which lend it a rugged appearance, but the materials have a quality look."
The 2008 HUMMER H2 was designed to mimic military vehicles, and to encounter some serious off-road terrain. Automobile.com brags about the "extremely short front and rear overhangs, which make for radical breakover and departure angles."
A less-than-luxurious interior has been a complaint about past models of the H2 HUMMER; 2008's massive overhaul of the interior has quieted these concerns. Edmunds describes it as "more upscale with better fit and finish." Popular Mechanics is even more impressed, stating that the "seats are better, the door panels are better, the third-row rear seat has been revised, and every piece seems to fit together more precisely and cleanly."
While reviewers agree the 2008 HUMMER H2 looks great, the styling does diminish functionality. Edmunds complains of "poor outward visibility" due to the roof pillars. For the H2 SUT, ForbesAuto docks points for a short pickup bed that "tends to limit its use as a cargo hauler."
