Kunzang Chöling of Evansville, formerly Palchen Study Group of Evansville, offers meditation and practice in the Tibetan Buddhist, mahayana/vajrayana tradition. Our roots are in the Kagyu and Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism, but reflecting our affiliation under Kunzang Palchen Ling (Red Hook, NY) and their non-sectarian mission, we hope to foster the teachings of all lineages.
Kunzang Chöling of Evansville provides students a connection to authentic teachings and teachers. The Ven. Bardor Tulku Rinpoche of Kunzang Palchen Ling provides guidance for our group—with our local meditation and practice being coordinated by a 17 year student of Bardor Rinpoche.
We meet weekly for sitting meditation and Dharma instruction, followed by a question and answer period. No meditation or Buddhist experience is necessary—just the desire to learn more about Tibetan Buddhist meditation and practice.
We're happy to announce that Lama Yeshe Gyamtso will be visiting Evansville to lead a teaching weekend March 18 & 19, 2017. The teachings will be held in the small chapel at First Presbyterian Church in Downtown Evansville. Click here for more information regarding cost and schedule.

The Common Fund for Commodities (CFC) is an autonomous intergovernmental financial institution established within the framework of the United Nations. The Agreement Establishing the Common Fund for Commodities was negotiated in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) from 1976 to 1980 and became effective in 1989. The first commodity development project was approved in 1991.
The Common Fund for Commodities forms a partnership of 101 Member States plus 9 institutional members. Membership of the Fund is open to all States Members of the United Nations or any of its specialised agencies, or of the International Atomic Energy Agency, and intergovernmental organisations of regional economic integration which exercise competence in the fields of activity of the Fund.
The Common Fund's mandate is to enhance the socio-economic development of commodity producers and contribute to the development of society as a whole. In line with its market-oriented approach, the Fund concentrates on commodity development projects financed from its resources. These resources consist of voluntary contributions, capital subscriptions by Member Countries transferred to the Second Account and interest earned. Whereas voluntary contributions can be used for either grants or loans, the capital subscription transferred to the Second Account can only be applied for loan-financing of projects. Through co-operation with other development institutions, the private sector and civil society, the Fund endeavours to achieve overall efficiency in and impact on commodity development.
The Common Fund operates under the novel approach of commodity focus instead of the traditional country focus. Commodity focus entails concentrating on the general problems of commodities The CFC's aim is to realize the potential of commodity production, processing, manufacturing, and trade for the benefit of the poor. The CFC supports implementation of interventions that:
CFC interventions use value chain approach to identify chain participants to identify opportunities and obstacles in specific commodity value chains thereby developing viable solutions. Value chain analysis leads to identification of opportunities for value chain development.
The CFC supported interventions cover all aspects of the value chain from production to consumption i.e. from "field to the fork". Specifically targeted areas are:
The main criterion for selection of intervention for support are quality, potential impact, beneficiary focus, replicability, sustainability, cost effectiveness, manageability and dissemination.
The governing bodies of the Fund are its Governing Council and the Executive Board. The Managing Director is the Chief Executive Officer of the Fund. The Executive Board is advised by a Consultative Committee, composed of nine independent experts, on technical and economic aspects of projects submitted to the Fund. The Governing Council meets once a year, and the Executive Board and Consultative Committee biannually.
The Headquarters of the Common Fund are located in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The Common Fund's partnership with OPEC Fund for International Development (OFID) is historic and dates back to the very inception of the Fund. The OPEC Fund not only facilitated and paid capital subscription for as many as 37 Least Developed Countries (LDCs) but continues to make contributions under ''Framework of Financial Support'' towards CFC's commodity development projects for the least developed countries and poorer strata in other developing countries.
The Kingdom of Norway and the European Commission have been supportive of the Fund and have sponsored capital contribution of 9 and 3 countries respectively.
The Kingdom of the Netherlands: A Trust Fund arrangement set up by the Netherlands Ministry for Development Cooperation to support CFC projects with co-financing contributions for the Five Year Action Plan.

Advanced Color Picker widget: manual entry is not possible even if you allow it based on your settingsAsked by lbporter on May 07, 2015 at 02:20 PM
Hi, I use the "Advanced Color Picker" widget on a few of my forms. I see when the widget is initially dragged over from the left a window pops up giving the option to enable or disable manual entry of one's color selection. When I select to enable this, the widget still does not let the user enter their color selection manually which can be very inconvenient for them. Please let me know if this is able to be fixed. It is in my forms titled "Photo Strip Design Form" and "2x6 Photo Strip Design Form."
Thank you!

Dublin eatery now offering takeaway treats for dogs
A Dublin Thai restaurant has added the option of dog food to its takeaway menu.
Camile, a Thai takeaway chain in Dublin, has added a new offering to its takeaway menu that will have tongues wagging.
Advertised as the 'world's first delivery doggy treat' which will cure 'starving puppy eyes', the takeaway's idea is certainly novel.
Stop those sad puppy dog eyes at dinner with the world's 1st delivery dog treat #cute #doggy https://t.co/iA131nQQaO pic.twitter.com/BBypZFxnfS— Camile Thai (@CamileThai) March 7, 2016
Dogs across Dublin can now indulge in a takeaway treat upon delivery, consisting of rice pudding and mango coulis topped by luxury Madeline biscuits, which cost their owner back €2.95.
While many have taken to criticising the takeaway menu's addition as extravagant, lots of happy dog owners have shared photos and videos of delighted pets that are now fully part of the family takeaway:

|Perturbative predictions for 4 jet production at LEP and prompt photon emission at the tevatron
|Cullen, M. A.

|Date of Award:
|Availability of Full Text:
Many contemporary experimental QCD results achieve greater accuracy in measurement than equivalent theoretical predictions calculated at leading order. Therefore it is necessary to consider next to leading order (NLO) predictions for many processes in order to compare experiment with theory. Accurate theoretical predictions are also important in order to reduce the uncertainty in QCD parameters such as the coupling constant a, and to test whether QCD is in fact the correct theory to describe the strong interaction. With NLO results it is also possible to separate different clustering algorithms and test non-perturbative effects. This thesis concentrates on the techniques necessary for the calculation of NLO observables from the processes e(^+)e(^-) → 4 jets and pp → γ + X. We formulate a new version of the hybrid subtraction scheme based on the colour antenna structure of the final state to evaluate the necessary phase space integrals for the 4 jet process. The scheme is universal and can be applied to any QCD processes. The general purpose Monte Carlo EERAD2 which incorporates this new technique is compared with both experimental data gathered by the DELPHI collaboration and other groups which have reported similar calculations. A Monte Carlo written for the process pp → γ + X requires a knowledge of the non- perturbative photon fragmentation function, D(_γ), and the second half of this thesis concentrates on a calculation of this process using the ALEPH measurement of D(_γ) based on a democratic algorithm. The Monte Carlo DPRAD incorporates these techniques and results from it are compared with data from the Tevatron.

Stories Create Engagement
If a corporation has social channels for their individual brands, it's easy to assume that the overall story of the company is covered. But what about the bigger picture of what the company is doing? Who tells the stories that bind the brands together?
In Rick's experience, this is where the power of corporate social channels shine through. By sharing the corporation's history, activities, and interests, it can connect with consumers on a more personal level that will draw them in to engage with more brands under the company's umbrella.
These larger-scale stories are also opportunities for a corporation to craft an identity that will trickle down throughout the organization and influence consumers' opinion of each brand. In a real-life representation of "what's good for the goose, is good for the gander," corporate social done well can positively impact all its brands with a single campaign.
Rick's time spent managing consumer engagement for a company as large as Kellogg has provided him valuable insight into how to successfully establish corporate social channels that convince and convert.
In This Episode
- How a corporate social channel leads to telling stories that cross brand lines
- Why measuring consumer engagement means different metrics for social versus the website
- Why the best type of engagement leads to questions from consumers
- How Instagram leads to a new level of content from and to consumers
- Why the ubiquity of social means a change in the meaning of "social pro"

About this project
We've made our initial goal, all thanks to YOU! So, I thought we could celebrate the LAST WEEKEND of the project by pulling out ALL THE STOPS.
With only three days left, I've reduced the first stretch goal to just $3000. Only $230 more pledged. If we reach that, EVERY BACKER will received a free e-book of my award-nominated young adult fantasy novella, OVER THE RIM.
Good 6/28-the end of the project, pledge $5 and get the $10 e-book reward. Yes, this means you can pre-order the Ghost Hold e-book for only $5.
Shipping really went up in the US this year and I've hated that I've had to ask for so much from my international backers. So, this last three days only, I am reducing all international shipping for all new backers at all pledge levels to just $10.
Good 6/28-end of the project, bump up any current pledge by at least $5 and receive a surprise piece of SWAG from the PSS Series (could be a poster, bumper sticker, bracelet, or mini ghost hand).
Last year (July/August 2012) my friends, family, and fans helped make GHOST HAND, my first novel, a reality through Kickstarter. That project was 110% funded and you can see it HERE.
GHOST HAND has been loved by many, is selling steadily, and has garnered RAVE REVIEWS on Amazon and Goodreads. Kickstarter peeps from around the world helped bring Olivia Black and her ghost hand to life.
And now it is time to do it again for book two of the series, GHOST HOLD.
Olivia Black is back.
Only this time she's not the one in need of rescue.
Samantha James, rich, popular, and an award-winning composer at age seventeen, is the next target on the CAMFers' list. And in order to convince Samantha to come with them, Olivia and Passion must pose as cousins, blend into the most affluent high school in Indianapolis, and infiltrate a mysterious cult known as The Hold.
Olivia doesn't expect it to be easy, even with the PSS guys backing them up. But what she discovers over the course of the mission will call into question everything she has ever believed about herself, her ghost hand, and especially Marcus, the guy she is undoubtedly falling in love with.
The cover for GHOST HOLD was professionally designed by the wonderful Scarlett Rugers and was UNVEILED HERE JUNE 15th at the halfway mark of this project. It features main characters Olivia Black, Marcus Jordon, and Passion Wainwright.
Want to SAMPLE the work before you buy?
You can read the first four chapters of GHOST HAND, book one of The PSS Chronicles, using the LOOK INSIDE FEATURE of Amazon.
In addition, you can read the FIRST CHAPTER OF GHOST HOLD HERE. It was unlocked to the general public thanks to the generosity and support of the project backers. BACKERS to the project at any level will also have IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO CHAPTER TWO. And CHAPTER THREE through the backer only updates section. In addition I've made available THIS steamy, romantic excerpt between Olivia and Marcus from Chapter Eight of GHOST HOLD (WARNING- if you haven't read GHOST HAND yet, this excerpt has information that could spoil a twist in book one).
I am an award-winning short story writer and Indie novelist, and I live in Portland, Oregon with one cat, two teenagers, and a man who wants to live on a boat. I don't smoke, or drink, or cuss as much as my characters. My only real vices are writing, eating M&Ms, and watching reality television.
I LOVE being an independent, self-published writer who has complete control over my creative work. And that is made possible largely by the Kickstarter projects I do to fund the publication of my books, so thank you for considering backing me.
Kickstarter is NOT a charity, and neither is this project. If you examine the pledge and reward levels to the right, you can see you are essentially PRE-ORDERING an e-book or paperback copy of GHOST HOLD with anything over a $10 pledge.
Traditionally published authors get an advance from a publisher in exchange for the chance to publish their book. KIckstarter is my advance. It is a way for me to fund my book projects and produce a much higher quality product than I could otherwise.
Having done this before, I pretty much know where the money will go and here is a basic breakdown.
$500 for the professional book cover design
$700 for professional editing fees
$200 for print and e-book formatting
$800 for the first paperback print run
$300 for fees and shipping costs
Any extra money earned on the project will most likely go to buy me a new laptop to write on, as my current one is on its last leg.
Now that we've reached our initial funding goal, I've added a new reward for ALL BACKERS. If we reach $3000 by the end of the project, I'll be sending out an e-book copy of my Award-Nominated Young Adult Fantasy Novella, Over the Rim, to everyone.
Even if you don't read or like Young Adult Fiction or the Paranormal Thriller Genre, I can guarantee you know or love someone who DOES. Every reward level of this project can be given as a gift to someone else. Just pledge the amount for the reward you'd like to gift, and when the surveys go out to collect your information, you can let me know it is a gift and who to send it to. I'd even be happy to write a special gift message for you as well.
So, you're convinced and want to be a part of making Ghost Hold a reality? Awesome, and thank you. All you have to do is click the BACK THIS PROJECT BUTTON at the top right of this page and pledge any amount over $1. Then choose your reward, follow the instructions to pay, and I'll keep you updated on the project every step of the way.
And if you can't pledge today, thanks for stopping by and giving me your time, and feel free to share the project with your friends.
SPECIAL THANKS - Special thanks to my son, Soren, for the amazing job he did on my video again.
Risks and challenges
Well, considering I finished the last project despite several large earthquakes and a move overseas and back, I don't think there is much that would stop me from finishing this book (other than being hit by a Mac truck).
I think the biggest hurdle might be delays in the publication process, such as editing and formatting. These do happen, in which case the book release and shipping might occur later than expected.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Hello, Sorry for the delay in responding. I had less free time than I thought. gregor herrmann <firstname.lastname@example.com> ha scritto: > So I suggest you use e.g. 0.99+ds-1 for your package.

I understand the ds part. Is there some reason why "0.99.ds1-2" was left out of the choices? This seems to be the practice for packages like "sysvinit" for example. The .tar.gz would then be named libx86_0.99.ds1.orig.tar.gz which is fine since it is the source which is being re-packaged by Debian.

Facebook, the social network is partnering with Washington State in order to combat the spam known as clickjacking that is spreading in the social network. The officials claim that Adscend Media LLC which is based on Delaware is behind the spamming and a couple of lawsuits have been filed on it in California and Washington state federal courts.
The officials of Facebook say that it is always important to be ahead of the scammers and spammers. The clickjacking is a new spam that is happening in Facebook and it will be combated by this partnership.
In this spam, there will be links on the social network that have some salacious or shocking video codes embedded in them and they will be like links that the users have liked. The main aim behind these links is to attract the more friends of the users and gain clicks. The links will lead to a survey from an advertiser.
The officials claim the Adscend Media is responsible for spreading the spam by means of misleading and deceptive tactics and it has also encouraged the rest to perform the same. Even an email inquiry was sent to the company but it was not returned immediately.
The spammers first target the social networks as people likely trust and share the content that comes from friends. This enables them to spread the viruses, spams and scams quite easily. So far only Washington state has partnered with Facebook. The company claims that the partnership is due to the history of the state in ensuring technology consumer protection.

Primary Contributions (1)
a purposive change in the way in which agricultural land is held or owned, the methods of cultivation that are employed, or the relation of agriculture to the rest of the economy. Reforms such as these may be proclaimed by a government, by interested groups, or by revolution. The concept of land reform has varied over time according to the range of functions which land itself has performed: as a factor of production, a store of value and wealth, a status symbol, or a source of social and political influence. Land value reflects its relative scarcity, which in a market economy usually depends on the ratio between the area of usable land and the size of that area's population. As the per capita land area declines, the relative value of land rises, and land becomes increasingly a source of conflict among economic and social groups within the community. The patterns of wealth and income distribution and of social and political influence are partly determined by the laws governing land...

The Janome Skyline S9 is the third in the Janome Skyline S series that I have had the pleasure of reviewing. The first was the S5, which I reviewed late in 2014. In the late summer of 2016, I reviewed the Skyline S7 at Sunshine Sewing and Quilting in Margate, Florida… the same place where I reviewed the Skyline S5.
Not long after reviewing that machine, I learned of the existence of the S9. At first, I thought the S9 was a similar machine, and could not for the life of me understand why Janome would put out another one so soon.
However, when I visited Sunshine to review this one, I was pleased to discover that, while there are lots of similarities, it is quite different. The Janome Skyline S9 is a combination sewing, quilting and embroidery machine while the S7 is limited to sewing and quilting only.
At A Glance
The Janome Skyline S9 looks very much like the S7, but upon closer inspection, I realized that the S9 has a slightly larger footprint. It is also equipped with Janome's patented permanently attached embroidery unit which swing out when the machine is used in the embroidery mode.
There are also function buttons: start/stop; presser foot up/down; design stop; vertical mirror image; and thread tie-off/cut along with a variable speed control slider.
There is a free arm and a drop feed control lever on the right side of the machine, near the power switch. The on board accessory case has a ruler on front along with a slot for inserting the knee lift.
Beneath the lid is a stitch selection guide and on the front of the column is a large LCD touch screen. Under the needle is a bright LED light, a needle threader, a see through bobbin cover and a needle plate with easy to see seam guides.

Working on the Janome Skyline S9
The Janome Skyline S9 is identical to the S7 when it comes to threading the machine, winding the bobbin and setting it in place. After that, however, the differences become to come into play.
If you choose to use the embroidery function, it is first necessary to go into the menu and select the embroidery function then flip a switch on the back of the machine to engage the arm embroidery unit. After selecting one of the on board embroidery designs or a design of your own from your computer or flash drive, select the hoop which would best suit our purposes and simply place it on the extension arm and lock it into place.
For this review, I sampled a four thread on board design. This machine is so quiet I barely heard it at all while my design was flawlessly produced.
When in the sewing mode, the Janome Skyline S9 was just as quiet, even though it was set at the highest speed setting – 1000 stitches per minute. Although I had a good sense and feeling that this is a very well built machine while it was operating in the embroidery mode, I was able to really experience its solid construction during the actual hands on part of the review while working in the sewing mode.
Even on a folding table and while sewing at the highest possible speed, there was absolutely no vibration. In addition, each stitch came out with precise perfection. For some reason, I started out working with yellow thread, but on the light colored fabric I chose for the review, I was concerned that the photographs would not adequately show the quality of the stitches.
Changing the upper thread took mere seconds. Anyone who has limited time to spend in the sewing room could certainly appreciate that!

Tying Off The Loose Ends
I was genuinely surprised when I learned of the existence of the Janome Skyline S9 so soon after the release of the S7. Anyone familiar with the way independent sewing machine dealers operate knows that machines are not automatically delivered upon released.
In this case, however, the S9 was delivered to Sunshine Sewing and Quilting just a few short hours after I finished reviewing the Skyline S7. Fay Nicoll, the store owner was almost as surprised as I was. She admitted that she was expecting delivery the following week.
I was impressed by the fact that embroidery designs could be easily transferred from a computer via WiFi and that the embroidery process was so user-friendly.
Very seldom do I recommend a sewing, quilting and embroidery machine for use by a beginner, but the Janome Skyline S9 is so easy to operate, I believe this machine could be a very useful teaching machine for certain teens, young adults and even new sewers who are advanced in age.
I do not, however, recommend the use of this machine by children younger than 12 or 13 years of age. The very easy to follow on board guides and tutorials are very helpful for anyone who might be less familiar with the general operation of a sewing machine.
The solid construction are indicators that with proper care and maintenance, the Janome Skyline S9 will stand the test of time. In my opinion, it is safe to assume that this machine will last more than just five to ten years.
My only concern in this regard is the fact that all sewing machine manufacturers have pretty much established a policy of not making replacement parts for any sewing machine that is more than 15 years old. To me, this is a very unsavory business practice because it forces consumers to go out and buy new machines even though the machines they already have could be repaired if the parts were available.
This is something we simply cannot get around. The only possible solution is to make friends with the owner and/or manager of shop that specializes in sewing machine repair and then cross our fingers, hoping that they will have a stockpile of the parts you need when the time comes.
With this awareness, I hesitate to recommend that anyone purchase an extremely expensive sewing machine. However, with an MSRP of $3999, I believe that anyone who is serious about sewing, machine quilting and machine embroidery will certainly be able to get their money's worth out of the Janome Skyline S9 before it becomes obsolete.

The small early trading premium for Medibank shares on debut suggests that the government has got its sums and the sale process just about right.
It is a Goldilocks price, neither too hot, nor too cold. The challenge for the group is to deliver the earnings growth that its share price predicts.
At $2.22 a share, Tuesday's market debut handed retail shareholders a healthy 11 per cent premium on the $2 they paid. It also kept institutions that paid $2.15 a share on the right side of the ledger.
However, the profits from selling now are not high enough to fan the flames of dissent over how heavily float applications were scaled back, or to open the government up to criticism that it sold one of its crown jewels too cheaply.
There are certainly plenty of unhappy investors.
On the retail side of the float, only 5 per cent of applications for more than $10,000 worth of shares were filled. Those who applied for $10,000 were treated better if they were Medibank customers or pre-registered for the share sale, but still got not much more than half of what they sought.
Institutions were also scaled back heavily after last week's institutional book-build but the government took some of the pressure out by lifting the institutional price to $2.15; a price that assumes solid earnings growth that Medibank needs to deliver.
At $2.15 a share, Medibank was valued at 22.9 times its forecast earnings of $258 million in the year to June 2015. The market debut price of $2.22 a share values the group at $6.06 billion and equates to 23.6 times expected earnings.
Medibank is a bit of a hybrid company. It is an insurer, and insurers sell for about 15 times expected earnings in the year ahead. It is also operating inside the health sector, where demand and earnings growth are stronger, and valuations higher. Ramsay Health Care, for example, trades at 26.9 times expected earnings. Medibank's listed health insurance competitor is another hybrid, and is trading at 19.6 times expected 20-2015 earnings.
Investors needed to do their homework to assess where Medibank sat on the valuation spectrum, and the government and adviser Lazard put together a sale process that encouraged them to do so.
Institutions participated in the first day of last week's three-day book-build without getting feedback from the government and book runners Deutsche, Goldman and Macquarie about the prices at which bids were being made, for example.
However, the work they did, and the sheer weight of money chasing Medibank shares, has done its work. At its debut, Medibank is priced for earnings growth it must deliver by cutting costs and dragging profit margins into line with those of private sector competitors.

These two mechanisms work together to inhibit the absorption of fat and eliminate extra weight. Research has indicated that the consumption of caffeinated coffee can lead to managing weight, an effect which is likely to be due to the known thermogenic effects of caffeine intake as well as effects of GCE and other pharmacologically active substances present in coffee

I have been making cakes for a while now and I have yet to figure out how to get all the powdered sugar cleaned up from the cake and figures. If I paint them, I don't really have that problem. But there has to be a better way. I have tried brushing it off but I can still see it in my pics. Am I supposed to use something? I notice people use Vodka when painting...does it evaporate so there is no alcohol in the cake? can it be used to hide/blend in the powdered sugar.
Vodka will get rid of powdered sugar residue. It does evaporate. That's why we use it instead of water, because it evaporates fast enough that it doesn't damage the fondant.
and a step up from vodka is Everclear, if it's available in your area --- it's 190 proof meaning only 5% water
evaporates "like that" -- doesn't get fondant soggy at all. and no residue at all.
but -- it is highly flammable!
Thank you so much. I have been battling this for a while. I think I will try them both...just make sure I don't use fire of any sort
Another option is lemon or orange extract. I use it a lot.
Does the lemona and orange extract have the same effect as vanilla extract or no because of the acidity? I want to avoid the "wet" look. Had a not so good weekend with some cakes. People look and are wowed by all my cakes but all I see is my mistakes. I want to get away from the soggy &/or wet look. Someone has a cake of a strawberry and that is the effect I want. Thanks, I'll get the extract as well
I'm sorry, but I just now saw that you had asked about the extracts. Yes, they have the same effect as the vodka because of their high alcohol content. I live in a dry county and do not have alcohol readily avail. I do always have extracts around though. They dry/evaporate and do not leave a wet look. HTH
If you don't want to use extracts or everclear you can also use a tiny bit of shortening and rub it gently over the white marks. Before using either method though you might want to take a soft dry brush and try to get off as much of the marks as you can (sometimes this is sufficient by itself).

Great Unit!!
I bought this machine when I was first diagnosed with both central and obstructive apnea. The machine I started with was similar but the payments were way way high each month. So for the price I paid for this unit I felt it was worth the money. I was spot on in my thought. This machine has been nothing but superior for my needs. Its quiet, doesn't take up much space, and travels easily. With the 5 year guarantee, the price, and the value of craftsmanship, I would recommend this product to everyone that is looking. Hands down I am pleased with my purchase. By Chip, Grand Junction, CO.
Wonderful unit, but 1 minor flaw
I am approaching my 1 Yr.Anniversary ( 5 days from today). And this was a purchase that was well worth it..I found out that I had to purchase it in cash because BCBS was trying to rip me off by making me purchase a respironics unit from a DME provider and not covering the cost with an Exhorbant mark up...THANK GOD I got the scrip in hand ( insist on it if you get a sleep study run)...anyway...this unit does everything, and the Smartlink module is easy to run and track your results...worth every penny...couple that with the industry's longest warranty and you have a winning combination...Devilbiss has always been the 1st name in air related products...it is only natural that they are also into the medical field...oh the only minor drawback....the Humidifier chamber could have been a bit larger...it will totally dry out (from tip top full to bone dry) if settings 8-10 are used in 8 hrs....but it is only a minor problem....

Let's remember the Nokia N97 for a moment: you unlock the device, put some music on, sign into Gravity, open the web browser, and suddenly apps start closing, or even worse, the annoying "Memory Full" pop-up appears. That is now in the past! There isn't a flagship device from Nokia, so the N97 is technically Nokia's flagship, but what about the other devices that have been announced?
I really didn't see it coming from the Nokia E5. This device, which was released just a couple of months ago, manages to run 74 applications at the same time, without any custom firmware or any other modifications. That is 12 apps more than the Samsung i8910, which by the way, was running a custom software. The fact that the E5 runs this many apps isn't just cool because – well… the E5 can run so many apps, but because Nokia finally got that we need plenty of memory on our devices. Who's the multitasking king? Nokia!

Before books, writers had to lug their thoughts around on engraved granite slabs, which is why the most accomplished philosophers gave the best piggyback rides. Enjoy lighter reading material with today's Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of art and architecture books at Hennessey + Ingalls. This Groupon is valid at both locations in Hollywood and Santa Monica.
Since 1963, new and used volumes about visual art and architecture have clogged the shelves of Hennessey + Ingalls, a regular supplier for multiple libraries, architectural firms, schools, and museums. Architecture aficionados can explore last century's structures and sages in XX Century Architecture ($35), or read up on Frank Gehry and Louis Sullivan for ideas about building a vacation home on top of your current home. Art books paint beautiful images in paperbacks such as Art in the Streets ($39.95), which explores the history of graffiti and street art throughout the world, and Secret Art of Dr. Seuss ($35), which grants a glimpse of the author's personal pieces along with his private farm of purebred Loraxes. A plethora of pages about photography, interior design, graphic design, and landscaping cater to visual artists of every type; readers can also soak up tales about area legends in books such as Inventing L.A.: The Chandlers and Their Times ($35), a story about the family who established the Los Angeles Times.
Hennessey + Ingalls
Hennessey + Ingalls's eclectic bookstore sells tomes covering visual arts, such as photography, as well as interior design, landscaping, fashion photography and architecture. The founding family still owns and manages its paper-based stock, ensuring that volumes remain well organized according to the length of authors' moustaches.
Originally founded in 1963 as a refuge for rare and out-of-print books, the massive store—the Santa Monica location spans 8,000 square feet—supplies vital reference materials for local architectural firms, museums, art galleries, and schools. Hennessey + Ingalls also runs a small publishing division, which produces and distributes six titles each year, most of which are reprints focusing on California's modernist architecture and postmodernist oil paintings of avocados. It offers a large selection of journals and notebooks, too. Plus, Hennessey's bibliophiles purchase good-condition used copies and rare editions from independent owners.

My wife and I stayed at ABA for six days in late August/early September. The place was great. The unit itself was well equipped, clean and spacious. We ate breakfast in our unit every day, having bought food at a local organic store (there are plenty of stores within walking distance to choose from). The location is wonderful, a short tram ride from the central station and walking distance to museums, restaurants and stores. Best of all, it is located on a canal. In addition to these many positive attributes, the owner-manager of ABA, Mart, was always available and helpful, with good suggestions about what to do.

Legendaries like NTR and Kamal Haasan have directed movies after their acting stings won them huge accolades. Looks like Megastar Chiranjeevi is all cutting through same path, and if we have to believe sources, his 150th movie is going to be the occasion.
Noted writers Paruchuri Brothers have already prepared the first version script of prominent freedom fighter from Rayalseema, Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy's story. Taking all stories from history books into account our writers made a perfect screen adaption, say sources. Though a director is yet to be found, names of various star Telugu film makers are heard in this connection. But the big news is that Megastar Chiranjeevi himself wants to wield mega phone for this movie as this happens to be his landmark film. By roping in country's best technicians, Chiru wants to take this project to new level under his own directional debut.
With vast experience in films, unarguably Chiru could do better job like an NTR and Kamal, but the point is why he is taking such a big risk? As there are huge expectations on this comeback movie, there will be huge pressure on the Megastar to deliver a bang. And travelling on two boats including direction and acting will be somewhat tough now. We have to see what Chiru will say.

There's a Clever Way to Charge a Cellphone With a 9-Volt Battery
The infamous dead cellphone battery is the ultimate "first world problem." But like many of those problems, there's also a first world fix.
The next time you find yourself wondering how you managed to drain your phone's battery so quickly, you won't have to wander around aimlessly while trying to find the nearest electrical outlet (and then stand beside the outlet for who knows how long while your phone charges). All you really need for a quick charge is a 9-volt battery, a car charger, a piece of metal and yes, your phone.
By simply plugging your phone into the car charger, touching the piece of metal to the other small strip of metal on the side of that charger and then attaching the end of the car charger to to the "+" terminal on the 9-volt battery, you'll have a makeshift – not to mention potentially lifesaving– concoction.

Recently I got a flyer in the mail for a fundraiser for Lakewood Mayor Ed FitzGerald, which is interesting, because I live on the other side of town. He's asking for some pretty small change as far as these events go: $35-$100. But the flyer was impressive: an 8.5-by-11, full-color, four-page glossy affair with two big pictures of his adorable family.
What's really eye-popping, though, is his "Friends of FitzGerald Fundraiser Host Committee." This list contains more than 75 names from across the county — not only his own city council but mayors, city council members, school board members and ward leaders from East Cleveland to Strongsville. The list is headed by Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray, Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern, and both of the county's congresspeople, Dennis Kucinich and Marcia Fudge. It includes two of three county commissioners (Tim Hagan and Peter Lawson Jones, but not Jimmy Dimora, head of the county party). County Treasurer Jim Rokakis, County Recorder Lillian Greene and Cleveland City Council President Marty Sweeney are also on the list, along with a dozen names with "esq." after them. The most noticeable omission is FitzGerald's former boss, County Prosecutor Bill Mason.
Nowhere does FitzGerald mention what he's running and raising money for, and his website isn't any more forthcoming. FitzGerald was elected in November 2007, after being elected to Lakewood City Council three times, and he isn't up for re-election until 2011. Rumors says he's mulling a bid for state auditor, the office currently held by Republican Mary Taylor. The huge host committee of powerful "friends" he's assembled for this fundraiser certainly gives strength to those rumors. — Anastasia Pantsios
Used to be, back before ex-mayor Mike White had his goons harassing bars out of business on the East Bank of the Flats in the '90s to make way for The Future, Cleveland's riverfront entertainment district had the highest bar-to-drunk density from New York to Chicago. But then three high-profile drowning deaths went down in a month, and it wasn't long before most of the East Bank would go dark, food for the wrecking ball.
Don't say you hadn't noticed: While the West Bank has been electrified at night going on more than a decade now, the East Bank, where Old River Road was once our own little Bourbon Street, is mostly an industrial wasteland of rubble piles, gravel roads and chain-link fences. This is the view from the West Bank today, all this splendor just a water-taxi-to-hell away.
"It makes me feel off-balance," says Tom Newman, executive director of the the Flats Oxbow Association, about the lack of symmetry today at the mouth of the Cuyahoga.
But help is on the way, at least the first trickles. Developer Scott Wolstein announced last fall that he would stall his $400 million mixed-use redevelopment here until the economy improved, but that didn't stop the flow of public money to start getting all the infrastructure work out of the way. About $4 million in loans and grants from the city, county and state have been awarded for brownfield remediation. And the entire sewer system is being overhauled, as well, complete with a new pump station to service the entire area, including the Warehouse District, said Nancy Lesic, Wolstein's spokeswoman. (The sewer work was mandated by the feds before the redevelopment project was even announced.)
"So, if anything, the Flats East Bank project moved up the timing of that work," she said.
And worry not: The economy will rebound, and the East Bank will live again — maybe not on the back of a convention center, but maybe a casino. Anything would be better than this.
Four generations and 80 years ago, Myron Kaplan's grandmother founded Pearl Road Auto Parts in a grimy little box-trailer in the middle of a small pile of dead cars. It was likely the first good example of a recycling business in town.
Now sitting on a veritable auto cemetery along I-480 at Pearl Road in Cleveland, Myron's middle-aged son Jon (pictured) is setting about revolutionizing the family spread. On Friday morning, the family started digging a hole for the foundation to a 140-foot tower that will be topped by a giant fan, 65 feet in diameter.
"If I want this all to be here for my kids," says Jon, "I have to do things right."
And due to the infusion of new state grant funds for green energy incubation — not to mention the promise of more tax incentives and federal stimulus support on the way — the Kaplans feel like they just found a pile of money with instructions on exactly how to negate their carbon footprint … at a savings. Instead of an electric bill of $2,000 a month — as well as the gas bill to power heaters in the winter — the Kaplans will pay $1,300 a month on a mortgage for the wind turbine. (A state grant covered more than two-thirds the cost.)
"It's a great investment incentive," says Jon. "I was told that I can apply for even more money too, but I feel kind of guilty, you know?"
"God bless," was how Myron summed up his feelings about the government support.
Two owners of three adjoining properties to the downtown Mall site are all that's left to settle snugly in their beds, now that the county commissioners have officially agreed to buy the Public Hall site for $20 million. All that's left before the compasses start twirling is to get Cleveland Council, which is reviewing the deal, to lend its rubber-stamp to the deal.
Maybe somebody is saying something constructive about all the added expenses the city will be taking on now, or wonder aloud perhaps where the $20 million is going to be stashed. But neveryoumind, lowly taxpayer. All that's left to do now is cross our fingers and wait … for the announcement that the county administration building will be bought up by the sales tax proceeds too. Two deals in one!
The county's just coming out now for the potential inclusion of its own HQ into the med-mart mix, after saying nary a word about it for more than a year. But now that the nearly billion-dollar deal with Commissioner Tim Hagan's family friend, Chris Kennedy of Chicago-based Merchandise Mart Properties Inc., is signed in blood, commissioners were ready to set county administrator James McCafferty loose to start bandying about HQ's worth as a northern entrance area of the new development. Or maybe a swanky new hotel that only rich people from other places will get to use, huh Dick Jacobs?
(Don't forget, the commissioners are still sitting on the Ameritrust complex it bought from Jacobs a few years back for $22 million, the one they've paid about $11 million more so far, supposedly positioning it for sale. Or something.)
Worry not, reminded McCafferty after Thursday's meeting: The money to pay for all the property acquisitions — county HQ included, if applicable — would come from the $900 million in bond money the county sales tax hike will raise over two decades to cover all of this anyway. See? So it's practically free! We can't afford not to do it!
So the purchase of the county administration building had always been factored in as a potential expense?
"You have to stay open," says McCafferty, "but the only way for [a county HQ sale] to happen is if it's a cheaper option." Rest assured: Commissioners have their best people on it.
They were hoping you wouldn't see when they pulled these coins from out of your ass. And they were mostly right. It's been going on for so long it's probably started to feel good anyway, huh? — Dan Harkins
Bowling has one thing in common with any profile of a population: statistics. Consider a brief portrait of literacy in Cleveland: According to Seeds of Literacy (which got its numbers from the Center for Urban Poverty and Social Change at the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences, Case Western Reserve University), 69 percent of Cleveland residents are functionally illiterate, which is defined as reading on a 4th to 6th grade level. Such a person may struggle to read a bus schedule or a job application. Further, some Cleveland neighborhoods have illiteracy rates as high as 95 percent. Seeds of Literacy combats those numbers with free, one-to-one tutoring in basic education and GED testing to adults in Cuyahoga County. You can support their effort at their first Bowl-A-Thon Friday, May 29. (You've got to register and get your pledge sheet by May 22.) You get three hours of non-competitive bowling, shoe rental, food, music, door prizes and a t-shirt. It's from 8 to 11 p.m. May 29 at Fairview Lanes (21847 Lorain Road, Fairview Park, 216.661.7950, ext. 11.) $25. — Michael Gill
From monkey blogging co-conspirator Tom O'Konowitz of the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's PR department:
Who knew monkeys could swim? Allen's swamp monkeys [ed.: sounds like a Zydeco band] are very strong swimmers. At Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, the animal keepers encourage the swamp monkeys to practice their natural swimming ability frequently. They'll fill a big tub with water and treats — grapes, nuts or apples — and wait for the swamp monkeys to dive in after the food. Even baby swamp monkeys have taken part in the "diving for grapes" sessions.
Not all primates care to get wet, but the swamp monkeys are specially equipped to do so: they have webbed toes that allow them to more easily paddle through the water. In their native swamp forests of the Congo and Zaire, Allen's swamp monkeys will dive into water to avoid predators.
You can see the swamp monkeys every day at the Zoo's Primate, Cat & Aquatics Building. If you're lucky, you may catch them taking a dip.
Support for the aquatic ape theory? Who cares, they're monkeys that swim! More photos after the jump. — Frank Lewis

MADISON, Wis. – A conservative lawmaker wants an audit conducted of all state programs that use federal funds — and the ultimate costs federal obligations place on state and local freedom.
State Sen. David Craig sent a letter Tuesday to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee requesting it direct the Legislative Audit Bureau to conduct a "comprehensive audit of all state programs which receive or utilize federal funds."
The Town of Vernon Republican wants a review of the "federal requirements, regulations, and restrictions which bind the usage of those (federal) funds and tie the hands of our state government officials, local officials, and limits the freedom of our constituents."
Craig asks the audit bureau to consider:
- The cost of compliance and freedom lost by the state agency and local officials due to regulation.
- The estimated savings that could be realized should a regulation be lifted or lessened.
- The cost of compliance and loss of freedom born by the citizens of the state as a result of the regulation.
A Tax Foundation review found that in fiscal year 2013 a combined 30 percent of state revenues nationally were derived from federal grants-in-aid. That included everything from federal Medicaid payments and education funding assistance to cash for infrastructure projects and housing grants.
RELATED: Wisconsin could lead effort to restore states' rights
The study found federal grants-in-aid to state and local governments reached $600 billion per year.
"How much states receive in federal aid, and how reliant they are on such assistance, can vary widely," the Tax Foundation noted in its study.
Mississippi topped the dependency list in fiscal year 2013, deriving nearly 43 percent of its revenue from federal assistance. Louisiana was next at 41.9 percent, followed by Tennessee (39.5 percent).
Wisconsin ranked 36th in the nation, with 27.7 percent of revenue coming from federal sources, according to the Tax Foundation.
North Dakota was least dependent, at 19 percent, followed by Hawaii (21.5 percent), and Alaska (22.4 percent).
Such dependency creates obligations that can be costly for state and local governments, particularly in funding areas such as transportation and health care. In essence, the federal government demands that state and local governments follow costly rules and procedures or risk losing a portion or all of the federal dollars.
"As part of the on-going efforts to return powers and flexibilities back to the states though our (legislative) Federalism Committee, I am seeking additional information to identify the areas which would lift the burden of federal government regulations and mandates so the committee can craft reforms which will bring efficiency to our state government and liberty our citizens," Craig wrote in the letter to state Sen. Robert Cowles, R-Green Bay, and Rep. Samantha Kerkman, R-Salem, co-chairs of the Joint Audit Committee.
For too long, Craig wrote, the federal government has "seized powers reserved for the states" under the Ninth and Tenth amendments to the Constitution.
"An endeavor of the Senate Committee on Financial Services, Constitution & Federalism is to assist our state in returning these powers to our state and our citizens," the senator wrote.

Zipper: An Exploration in Novelty
The zip-fastener was invented by Whitcomb Judson, a frustrated man with a penchant for complexity. It didn't work and wasn't wanted. This book tells the fascinating story of how a useless technological novelty worked its way into daily life and took its place as one of the defining artefacts of the 20th century. The cast of characters might well have come from a novel: the brilliant engineer who took 20 years to make the zip-fastener work; the small-town lawyer whose blind faith in Judson's invention sustained him for 40 lean years; the flamboyant Paris designer who made zip-fasteners the height of fashion; and the Japanese entrepreneur whose dedication to simple ideas made him the "Zipper King" of the world.

I need to make a baby block (cube) cake big enough to feed 50 people. I figure a 10 inch square, 5 layer high should be enough. Do I put it together as if it were a wedding cake? Any pointers?
2 replies
I would dowel and board every 4" of cake. Sounds like a big cake. Make sure you post a pic.
That's huge. Have you considered doing several small cubes? I usually do 4" cubes.
