Finding recipes that are easy to make and that can bake in less than 2 minutes and require only 5 minutes of prep time are hard to find in normal life. When you add kids and a gluten and dairy free diet, good luck in finding a quick, easy and tasty desert.
When Bob's Red Mill first asked for people who wanted to guest post a kid-friendly GFCF (gluten free casein free) recipe, I right away said "yes". I anyway have to eat GFCF, so that part wouldn't be too much of a challenge. Making it kid-friendly and easy to make would be the challenge. I filed it away in the back corner of my mind for a week, then, all of a sudden, I was inspired. All it took was a gluten-free brownie-in-the-microwave mix I happened to have, and memories of a chocolate cake mix for the microwave my best friend gave me over 7 years ago. I told my little sister, and we both were bouncing with excitement as we took out a bunch of gluten free flours to experiment with. The next 3 weeks were spent testing, tasting, talking about the texture, the taste, the look, and how we should change it. Finally, we came up with the final version, and had some friends (who are not GFCF) taste it, and they gave ups several thumbs up and huge smiles. So, Chef Froggie and Chef Flower (from Froggie's Gluten Free Culinary School) are excited to share with you a variation on chocolate cake-in-a-mug: "GFCF Chocolate Chip Thing In A Mug" And, best of all, it not only happens to be GFCF, but we reduced the sugar some, it also is egg-free, and corn-free, nut-free and can easily be made soy-free too. And did I say it's easy to make? So come on, get out your flours and a mug and join the fun!
What you'll need:
- 1 microwave safe large mug (or oven safe if you don't have a microwave)
- 1 Tbsp of melted dairy-free butter (I used Earth Balance)
- 4 Tbsp of vanilla soy milk (you can use another kind if you want, but the vanilla adds a bit of extra flavor)
- 2 Tbsp of potato starch (NOT flour)
- 3 Tbsp of sweet white rice flour
- 3 Tbsp "Sweet" white sorghum flour
- 2 Tbsp confectioner's sugar (make sure it is gluten free. Some you can find are corn-free too)
- 1 Tbsp GFCF chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life Foods mini chocolate chips)
- ¼ tsp gluten-free baking powder
How to make it:
Combine all the ingredients right into the mug you will serve it in. Mix very well with a spoon making sure you get the flour mixed out of the edges at the bottom. Microwave on high for about 1 ½ minutes. LET COOL a bit before indulging. Please don't burn your tongue!
If you do not have a microwave, mix all the ingredients in an oven-safe dish comparable in size to a large mug. Bake in an oven, pre-heated to 400* F for 20 minutes. LET COOL slightly before eating it… and parents make sure you help your kids with this part.
It is very tasty on it's own (we like it best hot), but you can also add non-dairy ice cream on top, or even try other toppings. I can tell you it's highly tempting to make this because it only takes a few minutes to make it, and it makes a smaller amount than a full cake does. And did I say it tastes really good? Enjoy!

Topic: Just when we thought things were going well
Yesterday, Lee went in for his Gemzar, and as usual they did his bloodwork first. Dr. Mathern came in to speak with him and told him that within the last week, the tumor has doubled in size and chemo was cancelled. They scheduled an MRI for today...but rescheduled for first thing Monday morning. After results from Monday's scan they will determine what route to take next. Lee is yellow, his ankles swollen...but otherwise feeling quite well, and has gained a whopping 43 pounds. We are turning to all of you, the experts. Is tumor growth normal....does Gemzar stop working...what chemo/radiation route advice can you offer....we are feeling like this might just be the end of the road for us. Any kind of guidance from you will be of great, great appreciation.

This is all just speculation but here it is:
Also, here is what the Pistons new logo may be. These caps are the 2005 Draft caps.
These caps were found over at Eastbay, but now when you click the link, strangely the Piston and Pacer caps have been removed for some reason. I like the Pistons apparent new logo, but I'm not sure I like the Pacers. Hopefully, this is just the Pacers secondary logo.
One of the reasons I think that Pacer logo on the cap may be our new logo/secondary logo is because, I have seen that logo a lot this year. From the Pacers Playoffs posters to the Pacers season tickets.

The central issue of this presidential campaign is this:
Obama favors central planning and government control of industry
Romney favors venture capitalism and creative destruction
When Obama attacks Romney for the actions of Bain capital, the press gets that. What Obama's narrative says is that creative destruction has cost the US manufacturing worker his livelihood. The Obama narrative does not blame the geopolitical realities of cost, supply and demand; instead, Obama places the blame on the leaders of industry, who could, in his view, be controlled by central planners.
When the Romney campaign attacks Obama over grandiose statements like "With government intervention, this plant will be open for another hundred years", what Romney is saying is that crony capitalism is ignorant and impotent against the realities of cost, supply and demand; Romney's campaign reveals the fundamental flaw in central planning: Intended consequences and wishful thinking do not change the world into something it is not.
No amount of "hope" is going to create a practical electric car. The practical electric car will come, not from central planning, but from innovation. In all likelihood, the critical breakthroughs will come from innovators funded by venture capitalism, not central planners.
When Obama gave his speech about the plant being open for another hundred years, what people heard was: "I and my plans will stand up for this plant, and you will benefit [from central planning]". But the plant closed, all the same, not because Obama made a heroic effort to save that plant, or any other particular plant–no such effort was ever made–the plant closed because of the realities of cost, supply and demand. Realities to which Obama was and is willfully ignorant.
Nobody denies that central planning is a powerful tool. The Soviets put men in space–few nations have done that. What we as Americans understand, but apparently Maddow does not, is that central planning is a tool that must be used carefully and skillfully, or preferably, not at all. Central planning rarely produces the best results. Good results sometimes, terrible results other times, but in the ongoing contest between central planners and individual innovators, central planners have proven wanting.
What the Janesville GM plant closing proves is that central planning, in the hands of Barack Obama, is again a failure. He believed that central planning would save that plant, but he was wrong. Just like he was wrong about how to create jobs, fix the economy, reform healthcare… Just as he has been wrong about too many things.
The question is not: "did the plant close before Obama was president?" (it was still producing cars in 2009). The real question is: "was Obama wrong when he said [central planning] government would save the plant". The government did not hold back in 2008, it did intervene, and yet the plant closed anyway. YOU CAN BET that if the plant had been saved, Obama would be touting that.
That plant closure is a failure of central planning. We look at our economy, see it sputtering and dysfunctional, yet we cannot easily see what has happened, event by event, that makes for such a weak economy. Solyndra is a signpost. The Janesville GM plant is a signpost. Neither of these by themselves explains the failure of central planning, but together, these and a thousand other Obama central planning missteps do explain what we see.

Anime-inspired cutie with a body to die for...
The Marvel Bishoujo X-23 Statue is in-stock through Kotobukiya priced at $59.99.
To insure your action figure collection, get in touch with Collectibles Insurance, the official insurance company of the Figures.com network. Say "Figures.com" to get 5% off your first term premiums.
To buy action figures, take a look at BigBadToyStore.com, RedfordFilms.com, PastGenerationToys.com, BriansToys.com, ToyWiz.com, SmallJoes.com, MonkeyDepot.com, and Urban-Collector.com.
Laura Kinney, codename X-23, was originally created as a character for the X-men: Evolution animated series and her popularity led to her being brought into the actual Marvel comic universe shortly. A clone of Wolverine, the young girl was trained to be an assassin, but was later rehabilitated and invited to fight alongside the X-men and eventually X-force. She shares a mutant ability to heal just like Wolverine, but has only two adamantium claws on each hand, while her third is in each foot and she lacks a fully adamantium skeleton. X-23 is the latest in a line that has grown to include more than a dozen Marvel heroines re-imagined into cute, anime-inspired beauties as part of Kotobukiyas Marvel Bishoujo figure line, based on designs by popular illustrator Shunya Yamashita.
X-23 comes packaged in a full-color display box with windows to view the figure on the top, side, and front. The box is overall white with Shunya Yamashitas beautiful artwork gracing the packaging on all sides. The back features images of the enclosed figure with a short bio on the character. Inside, the figure is set against a purple backdrop and is protected by a form-fitting clamshell.
Kotobukiya sculptor Takashi Tsukada translates Shunyas artwork to figure form, putting his own spin on the illustrators work. X-23 is posed crouching down on one knee, with claws unsheathed and at the ready as her hair blows in the wind. She comes in at around 6 inches tall (1/7 scale), although she appears much bigger in scale than many of the characters in the Bishoujo line.
The sculpting of the figure looks fantastic and really captures the style of Shunyas art. Her female form is a highlight of the piece, accentuating the curves of her figure and her hardened muscle tone. The sleekness of her costume works to further accentuate her form with smaller details such as her chain link belt with blue jewel and medallion necklace finishing the look. Her boots are a stark contrast to the rest of the figures offering a more rugged, Goth look with the addition of a tiny skull on the front of the toe. Her face is slightly off from Shunyas original illustration, different but just as cute with more of a porcelain doll quality to it. I particularly like the subtle little sideways smile that they picked up on from the artwork.
The paint apps are great overall with around 3 - 4 colors used and no visible paint flaws or bleeding. Airbrushing was used to accentuate her muscles and curves of the skin but is a little heavy in places, particularly on her inner elbow and under her eyes.
Overall, while X-23 continues the fine tradition of the Marvel Bishoujo series, she is probably one of the better additions to the line and one of my favorites overall. They took a character that is often portrayed as being a little more rugged and made her very cute and soft looking which is sure to please her many fans out there. The Bishoujo Marvel X-23 is available now from Kotobukiya!

New England Patriots Announce 2014 Schedule
The start of the 2014 football season may seem far away when looking at a calendar but it'll be here before you know it. All football fans know little morsels of excitement the NFL feeds us like the schedule announcement, NFL Draft, OTA's, etc.are just getting us closer to kick-off! Here is the 2014 schedule for our beloved New England Patriots.

Well, maybe not WIDE open, but I'm starting to think that, for the first time in years, any number of teams might actually win the West. When it was announced that Shaq was being traded to the Heat, I went ahead and filled in the portion of the WC brackets showing the Spurs on top. And the collapse of the Timberwolves on really solified that opinion. They seemed to me to be the only top level team in the West that was really built for the playoffs. But things is a-changin.
The last time (if I remember correctly) that the Spurs were out in the first round was the last time that Duncan had a serious injury. It was the 2000 season, and the Spurs were fresh off their first Championship. But Timmy went down with an ankle problem, and the Spurs couldn't handle the Suns (led by Jason Kidd). I've heard everything from Duncan could be back before the playoffs to he might miss the first round. Well, the Spurs have shown pretty definitively that they need Duncan to win. They can pick off lotto teams without him, but right now they are set to play Denver, the team that blew them out of the water last night. Even if Duncan comes back for the playoffs, there's no guarantee that he or the team is going to be able to pick up where they left off.
Who else could win the thing?
I've mostly discounted Phoenix, Seattle, and Dallas becuase I never thought that they could win a playoff series against the Spurs. But if the Spurs falter?
Phoenix. Why not? Well, they're young and untested in the playoffs. They have the best record in the league, but the last few years have seen team after younger team rack up the best record only to be layed low by the veteran team who had been saving a little something for the playoffs. Even so, it wouldn't be a surprise to find them in the WCF if Nash stays healthy (ah, NOW I remember why Dallas give him max bucks...he's always on his last legs nearing the playoffs).
Seattle? I doubt it. Their strong start has mostly faded. And at the end of the day, they just don't have the juice for the playoffs.
Dallas. Weird as it sounds, if the Spurs implode, they're my pick. They've got star power, experience, and an improved defense. Granted, they're still a score-first kind of team, but if without the Spurs, isn't everyone in the West these days?
But even Houston has to have a shot. They're improving day by day, and the way things are shaping up out West, it could be anyone's conference.

FIRE chiefs in Cheshire say they are confident they can continue to protect Knutsford and the wider area, despite major cuts in their Government funding.
At a meeting of Cheshire Fire Authority this week, members were told they will lose nine per cent of their Government funding in 2013-14 and a further six per cent the following year.
The cuts mean they will have to make savings of nearly £6 million over the next four years.
However, the authority has agreed to limit any increase in its council tax level next year to under two per cent.
Chief Fire Officer Paul Hancock told the meeting that the proposals for the future would see the service building some new fire stations, keeping virtually the same number of fire engines but bringing in different staffing arrangements.
As a result of the authority's consultation that ran until last month, the only changes in Knutsford will see a change to the current day crewing duty system to an 'on-call' system.
The authority will be using a one-off £4.5 million capital grant it won from the Government to start the building work on the new stations so there will be no impact on its day-to-day revenue budget.
Clr John Joyce, chairman of the fire authority, said: "I am pleased that despite the severe cuts in our Government funding we have been able to limit any increase to under two per cent as we appreciate the difficult circumstances facing many of our residents.
"It still means making major savings from our budget over the next few years, but I believe the far-reaching plans we also signed off yesterday ensure we will be able to provide the first class fire and rescue service our communities deserve – and make efficiencies.
"To provide the wide range of safety and emergency response services we do for £1.30 a week for an average household represents good value for money. I'm also pleased that we do not intend closing any stations, nor do we expect to make any firefighters redundant."

"Mongo just pawn in game of life." (Blazing Saddles.)
Recently, I published a series of posts on Facebook under the theme "How To Win An Argument". Over the week it ran, there was a vast and animated flurry of comment and interaction — the posts hit a nerve.
Fortunately, because that series got so much traction in Facebook, I decided to gather them and post the series here in the blog, so they'll go into the archives (and thus can be easily accessed by anyone interested). I say "fortunately", because apparently Zuckerberg and his evil Facebook henchmen decided that all my January posts before the 20th (which included the argument series) needed to vanish from the face of the earth (and the virtual earth that is social media). Poof. They're gone. No explanation, no way to get them back (though I've been searching for tips and asking for help from colleagues — there are a lot of videos out there pretending to have the secret of restoring "lost" posts, but they don't work).
I'm kinda stunned… but glad I'd already copied and pasted those initial posts here. I'm doing the same with other FB posts from the past — just getting them copied into a Word doc, in case Zuck goes berzerk again. Jeez Louise, you probably need to take the same precautions if you have valuable posts you don't want to lose.
So, Lesson #1: Do not trust Facebook to archive anything. The joint is crawling with post-devouring demons or something.
I'm not saying that everything I post there needs to be carved in stone. But I do write some cool shit on my wall, occasionally. It'd be nice if it remained there.
Anyway, below is a mildly-edited collection of that series on winning an argument. I didn't save the dozens and dozens of comments, and that's a shame — it was a great thread, full of other lessons. For example: The easiest way to get a whole bunch of folks frothing is to talk about (a) sex, or (b) their belief systems. They go nuts. As you'll see below, I just laid out my views on how to handle people who want to argue and how to define "winning" for yourself… and that just pissed off some folks. Even discussing arguing inflamed their knee-jerk need to argue. Humorous, ironic, and illustrative of how whacko human beings can be. Also, as a marketer, informative — especially if you want or need to introduce some form of argument or alternative view into your advertising.
And, yes, this entire series is very much aimed at marketers. Great ads seldom argue, though they may be pushing buttons right and left. The psychology is subtle, but awesome.
So, without further ado, here's that series. Love to hear your comments… which will all go safely into the blog archives, where Zuckerberg can't touch them:

Pilates employs stretching exercises that strengthen muscles, promote flexibility and improve coordination.
Pilates is a great way to address muscle imbalances that eventually cause pain. Those who practice it can improve their health and state of mind far beyond their exercise sessions once they grasp the basic principles. Over time, Pilates helps develop intense body awareness to control pain and injury.
Pilates boasts a number of benefits that set it apart from other forms of exercise.
• Awareness and concentration. A strong sense of body awareness is at the heart of Pilates. Nothing beats the individual guidance to help engage the weakest muscles and eliminate common compensations that lead to injury. The ability to derive results quickly is an added benefit.
• Balance. Pilates has a unique way of accomplishing gains in strength and flexibility simultaneously. The result is that those who practice it will feel good even while they are exercising.
• Breathing. Once an exercise is grasped, more attention is placed on breathing to deepen the benefit.
• Centering. Focusing on the core is part of every Pilates movement because it protects the spine. Many people are drawn to Pilates because it offers an ideal way to control back pain.
• Control and precision. As Pilates movements become more advanced, the control of the movement adds a fun challenge. The end result is a fluid exercise that looks effortless.
• Efficiency/flow of movement. Pilates emphasizes movement versus holding a position to ensure a carryover into how you move in your daily life to avoid injury.
The types and benefits of Pilates
There are two types of Pilates: mat and apparatus (equipment). Mat work uses the body to challenge the core. Apparatus work provides a more comprehensive body workout with a higher repertoire of exercise possibilities. Apparatus work can assist or challenge a regular exercise regimen. Pilates works best when both are practiced.
Beginning with a private session or small group can provide an opportunity to develop the groundwork for successful results. It requires good individual guidance to ensure that beginners are not compensating with muscles that are already overworking.
Pilates tends to be more challenging over time as those who practice it fine-tune their movements to engage weak muscles more effectively.
With guidance from a physical therapist trained in Pilates principles, Pilates can help rehabilitate an injury, pain and/or dysfunction. It may also prove beneficial in the post-rehabilitative stage of injury to maintain the patient's achievements.
Those new to a regular fitness routine can learn proper form from Pilates to achieve a more beneficial result.
Diehard fitness fans can benefit by working toward a more challenging, fluid program. Athletes from a variety of sports choose Pilates to cross-train and avoid injuries. Sport-specific exercises on the apparatus can be used for performance enhancement.
No matter what your level of fitness is when you start, Pilates can accomplish desired results with its balanced program.
Kim Gladfelter is a physical therapist and Pilates instructor at PhysioFit Physical Therapy and Wellness in Los Altos. For more information, call 947-8500 or visit www.physiofitpt.com.

Track Lighting Install Supplies
How to Select
How to select Track Lighting Install Supplies
Installing track lighting fixtures in a house may be a very complicated process for people who don't have all of the necessary equipment. The following guide will help you learn about what installation supplies you might need and how you should select them.
The type and amount of installation supplies that you need depends on the future location of the track lighting fixtures. One major difference between track lighting and other lighting options is their installation. Since these lights are mounted on all possible surfaces you will need to hide the wires under special track sections. Before you buy such sections, it is important that you calculate the area that they cover and pay attention to the diameter of the wires.
The next supplies that you might need during installation are outlet adapters. Such details will allow the cords to be hidden. If they aren't hidden, the overall view of the fixture would be ruined. That's the last thing that you want! To know what adapter to select, find out what the diameter of your cords and wires, and how many of them need to be hidden.
The lighting track connectors are also a very important part of any track lighting system. Such small details allow connecting various fixtures into one system, making the process of controlling it easier and faster. Again, find out what the diameters and types of the wires are before you order any connectors. The circuit connectors designed in "L", "T", and "H" and "X" shapes make the installation process much easier. With the help of such track lighting supplies you will be able to locate the fixtures in the way that you have planned.
If you need to install track lighting fixtures with low voltage applications, a pendant adapter is the perfect detail to help you complete this task. Ensure that the specifications of the supply comply with the line's requirements before you buy it.
If you are still not sure whether you need to install track lighting in your house or office, the following information might help you make the final decision.
What are the benefits of track lighting? The greatest benefit that you will be able to enjoy is their functionality and adjustability. You can install such fixtures everywhere you want. In addition to that, the light coming from the track lights can be adjusted to create an ambiance of your dreams.
How efficient is track lighting? When the lighting fixtures that you select are equipped with LED light bulbs, they offer durable and efficient performance. The money that you will spend on such fixtures will return in the first months of the lights' exploitation.

Subjects diagnosed with COPD are classified according to standards set forth by the Global Initiative on Obstructive Lung Disease. This study recruits subjects in each of three GOLD categories.
Other: 7% hypertonic saline
Administered via jet nebulizer to subjects in specific aim 3
Detailed Description:
Specific Aim I directly tests the hypothesis that mucus clearance is impaired due to mucus dehydration. It measures 1) COPD Mucociliary and Cough Clearance 2) mucus hydration 3) the concentrations of the dominant regulators of airway hydration and 4) the consequences of mucus dehydration on mucus biophysical properties and bacterial infection.
Specific Aim II tests the hypothesis that COPD acute exacerbations are associated with failures of mucus clearance. Measurements will be similar to that of Specific Aim I, but conducted during periods of baseline health, acute exacerbation and recovery.
Specific Aim III tests whether airway surface hydration with 7% Hypertonic Saline will restore clearance in the basal state and during a COPD acute exacerbation. COPD subjects will be exposed to inhaled Hypertonic Saline during periods of baseline health and acute exacerbation. Acute efficacy via measures of mucus clearance and spirometry will studied.

Library History
History of the Round Lake Area Library
In the late 60's, local milkman and Chamber of Commerce President Milton Andrews' dream of a public library in the Round Lake area gained momentum. Spearheaded by a dedicated group of volunteers from the Round Lake Area Library Association, the library dream came true. In 1967, a lending library was established in Round Lake High School's Library with two book racks and books donated by residents.
In March 1972, when state and federal funds became available, the Library Association applied for a demonstration grant and the Round Lake Area Library opened in a storefront at 375 Cedar Lake Road. The library had 2,650 cardholders and 4,360 books. On December 2, 1972, voters approved a referendum to establish the library district by a four-to-one margin.
In July 1976, the library moved to 442 Cedar Lake Road (the current Round Lake Village Hall) and added separate adult and children's areas.
Before long it became apparent that the facility was too small for the growing population. In 1985 the Round Lake Area Park District, with the consent of Vilah H. Ellis and Maurice Hart (who had originally donated the land to the Park District), donated two acres for a new library site. A building referendum passed in November 1985 and ground-breaking for the new library began on June 19, 1986.
The current facility at 906 Hart Road opened on February 29, 1988. Room for future growth in the lower level was part of the original plans, but until that was necessary, the space was rented, first to the Round Lake School District for a kindergarten center and later to the Round Lake Park District for an additional Child Development Center. In 1997 the library hired an architect to plan for library use of the entire building when the Park District lease expired in 1999. A referendum to maintain the library tax rate at the same level passed on March 17, 1998. Remodeling of the library began in April, 2000 and was completed in January, 2001. The "new" library was rededicated on February 4, 2001.
Renovation doubled the amount of space available to patrons, provided more working space for staff, and will allow for growth in the future. The library now has over 50 computers available for public use, a group study room for patrons to work on group projects, and a tutor room for those working on projects requiring personal attention.

Locke takes step forward in rotation audition
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Jeff Locke is getting used to pitching at JetBlue Park. If the Pirates played in the American League East, that could be seen as a positive sign about his ability to pitch at Fenway. Instead, he'll take his strong outing on Wednesday as a step in the right direction along the path of getting ready for life in the National League Central.
In his third start of the spring, and second straight here in Fort Myers, Locke went four solid innings, allowing just one run on three hits and two walks while striking out three in Pittsburgh's 9-3 victory. It was a much better performance than his last JetBlue appearance, when the lefty yielded three runs over three innings on Friday.
"I was pretty happy with everything today," Locke said. "The only thing I wasn't really happy with was getting two quick outs and stuff happened. Everything felt really good today. I can't stress enough how much better it feels to come back here a week later and pitch better, regardless of who it's against."
Locke ran into that two-out trouble in the third after two perfect frames to start things out against a Red Sox lineup that wasn't exactly chock full of regulars. He retired the first two batters quickly to run his streak to eight consecutive batters retired when Pedro Ciriaco singled. Ciriaco eventually came around to score on a Jonny Gomes double. Locke gave up a one-out double in the fourth, followed by a walk, but just like in the third, he was able to dance out of trouble.
"That was one of the bright spots for him today, because he was behind in the count while he was out there," manager Clint Hurdle said. "The fact that he made pitches, he stayed away from the big inning, they scratched him for the one run, no more damage than that, he went out there four times, it was a good step forward for him.
"He had a much better outing than the last time he was here. Everything was fresher, everything was a little cleaner with a better downhill angle, a better quality of strikes when he was throwing."
"I was able to throw more pitches in the strike zone and keep the ball down a lot better," Locke said, in comparison to his last JetBlue outing. "There were some pretty well-stroked balls, but that's just a part of baseball. For me, personally, with it being Spring Training and you're preparing yourself for the season, it was definitely a step in the right direction today. I mixed up my pitches and I was able to get quality work from the windup and the stretch."

Student Programs Motion-Tracking Musical Instrument
What do Iron Man, Minority Report, and musical conductors have in common? They've all been used to describe the open-source software experiment IRP, short for Infrared Performer, developed by Audio Technology Program senior Ben Mangold. The software allows you to be a DJ, manipulate digital audio, and play software instruments with gestural control simply by moving your hands before a camera affixed to a laptop.
IRP is a musical control surface that uses open-source software developed by audio technology professor William Brent. It communicates with an infrared camera (with an attached infrared light) to track "blobs" of infrared light reflected back at the camera.
By wearing reflector clips on the thumb and forefinger (which are tracked by the camera), the user can pinch and move to "click and drag" across a fully customizable layout of buttons, toggles, sliders, and interactive shapes and instruments.
The buttons and other components of IRP can send MIDI data out of the program, which allows the user to control musical content and interact with digital audio workstations (DAWs), an integral tool for both the recording studio and any musical performance utilizing a computer. In conjunction with Ableton Live, a DAW built specifically for live performance and DJing, Mangold has used the tool he developed to create an innovative audiovisual performance.
The project's beta was conceived, designed, and completed over the course of two years through classes at AU in digital instrument design, software engineering, and an audio technology capstone under the advice of Brent. In fall 2012, IRP was entered in the Student Design Competition and Exhibition at the 133rd Audio Engineering Society convention in San Francisco. It was selected into the competition through a blind peer review process from a panel of faculty members and professionals from around the world.

Elbow inflammation sends Atchison to DL
ST. LOUIS -- An MRI of Scott Atchison's right elbow revealed no new structural damage, according to Mets assistant general manager John Ricco, though the team will be without Atchison's services for the immediate future.
Hoping that a week of rest and treatment will calm the inflammation in the back of his right elbow, the Mets placed Atchison on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday and recalled right-hander Collin McHugh from Triple-A Las Vegas. The numbness that Atchison felt in Monday's game was caused by a group of bone spurs in his elbow, which irritated a nerve and caused inflammation.
"I think all things being considered, that's some good news," Ricco said.
Atchison, who has been pitching with a torn elbow ligament since at least last season, opted against Tommy John surgery upon first learning of the injury last summer. He hopes to avoid surgery again, despite the presence of bone spurs.
While Atchison recovers, the Mets will replace him in the bullpen with McHugh, who posted eye-popping numbers with Las Vegas. Despite pitching regularly in one of the most hitter-friendly enclaves in all of professional baseball, McHugh produced a 2.74 ERA with 36 strikeouts and nine walks over 49 1/3 innings.
He does not believe the transition to relief work will arrest his momentum.
"Honestly, it's about preparation," McHugh said. "The better you prepare, the better chance you have of succeeding out there. And whether I'm on a starter's schedule or I'm on a reliever's schedule, it doesn't really matter. I'm prepared both ways."

No matter your personal opinions on Wikileaks or Assange, you ought to find it troubling.
|I'm not sure why I find this surprising — probably because, like everybody else, I just bought into the political rhetoric and media spin. In retrospect, it seems obvious. So, this just in:

|During recent protest marches in London, with the exception of a handful of incidences, I have been rather sympathetic with the police. A significant portion of those marching have been destructive and violent, and while I disagree with kettling, it is easy to be sympathetic with the desire to avoid the violence and property destruction that accompanied the first march.
But suggesting that marches be banned? We live in a democracy, sirs. The freedom to engage in such demonstrations is more than worth the "disorder" they cause.

Pleasantly surprised!I recently lost my job and had to say Ahhhhh-dios to my $36 Dermalogica moisturizer. Ouch. So, I went to Walmart looking for a budget moisturizer. I have always been one to save on cleanser since it washes down the drain anyway, and splurge on moisturizer. However, I was surprised with this product! I have combo/dry skin in the winter and combo/oily in the sumer; it works just perfectly. I also di...read moredn't notice any "glitter" on my hands or face, and I am glad of that. In addition, I do prefer a higher SPF, so just for good measure I apply my SPF 30 block over this moisturizer. I have not had any dificulties at all and do like this moisturizer. However, I do worry about what ingredients I may be putting on my face since this was only $4.97. I will most likely going back to Drmalogica, but this is a great budget moisturizer! — 6 years, 9 months agopixie_dust | 492 reviews

GREAT BUY!I've been using this moisturizer for about 2 months now and I love it. It has a nice, light scent to it and glides on my face when I apply it. And my skin looks luminous after!!! It really does give me a nice glow!!! I put this on before I apply my make-up in the morning and my make-up goes on smooth but the best part is you can still see that luminous glow peaking through!!

Nothing special.I have been using this for a while and am only waiting until I finally run out. It's not very moisturizing at all, yet about an hour later it makes your face look extremely oily. And the "glow" is simply just little sparkles in it that don't really do much of anything. I have acne-prone skin and it didn't break me out at all, but it didn't do anything great or amazing either, just "meh". I won't be repurchasing, but it wasn't just plain bad either. — 4 years, 7 months agojustcarolina | 13 reviews
Review subjectI really loved this lotion for a few years and used it religiously from ages 15-18 but my skin is changing a bit and needs a heavier lotion, especially in winter. It's a good value for the price (I think it's less than $5 a bottle, or not much more than that) and it lasts for a few months. The pump bottle makes it easy to use and easy to get all of the product out (just unscrew the lid when it sta...read morerts running out). I love that it has SPF in it. It isn't a lot (SPF 15) but at least it's something. It doesn't make your skin look pale even with the sunscreen which is great. If you have pretty dry skin I would say to stick with something heavier, but if you have average/combination skin this lotion works great. — 4 years, 8 months agoamber.flute | 14 reviews

Phillies Designate Wilson Valdez For Assignment
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [May 17 at 5:16pm CST]
The Phillies designated infielder Wilson Valdez for assignment to make room for Jimmy Rollins, according to MLB.com's transactions page. The Phillies were expected to clear room for Rollins, who was on the 15-day DL with a calf injury, by designating Valdez. Because he is out of options, Valdez will have to clear waivers to remain with the Phillies.
Valdez, who turns 32 on Thursday, has been about average defensively in recent years, according to UZR. He has played outfield, second, third and short, so he makes up for his pedestrian bat with exceptional versatility. Valdez's .231/.231/.365 line means the Phillies are willing to risk losing him to another club - especially when it means making room for Rollins.

U.S. Attorney Deborah R. Gilg announced Wednesday that Michael A. Smith, 30, of Omaha, was convicted by a federal jury for aiming a laser pointer at an aircraft. Smith was arrested after he was identified for using a laser pointer to strike Abel 1, the Omaha Police Departments helicopter.
Abel 1 responded and was also struck by a laser beam seconds after becoming airborne, while heading in the direction provided by the Southwest pilot, Gilg said.
As Abel 1 approached the area of 152nd St. in northwest Omaha, the cockpit was repeatedly struck by the laser to the point of causing the pilots to be distracted and temporarily blinded from the refraction of the laser beam, Gilg said.
After being struck as many as 6-7 times, the pilots of Abel 1 narrowed the area from which the beam was coming and sought ground support from a Deputy Douglas County Sheriff,
Gilg said the deputy was able to locate Smith in his back yard. Smith was actively aiming the laser pointer in the direction of the area where Abel 1 was hovering when contacted by the deputy, Gilg said.
Aiming a laser at an aircraft is punishable by up to 5 years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine.
The case was tried in front of U.S. District Judge John Gerrard. Gerrard set sentencing for July 22.
Smith was ordered detained by U.S. Marshals, pending sentencing.
In addition to the air patrol units of the Omaha Police Department and the Douglas County Sheriffs Office, the case was also investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Gilg said.
If you aim a laser beam into the sky, it may seem to end, but the beam actually continues even if you cannot see it, according to LaserPointerSafety.com, an entire website devoted to the issue.
The beam is small close up, but it grows larger at long distances, no longer a millimeter-sized dot. At longer distances the beam can be several inches across. And when the beam hits the windscreen of a cockpit, or the bubble of a helicopter, imperfections in and on the glass can spread the light even more, according to the website.
Laser light in the pilots eyes causes glare -- the inability to see past the light. At higher power levels, it could cause temporary flashblindness and afterimages, like when you look at a bright camera flash and cannot see for a several seconds afterwards. Since the beam cant be held completely steady on the cockpit, the pilot may experience more than one bright flash.
Also, because laser gunsights are common, people get very worried when someone points a laser at them.

My question is what will I find when i sling this thing the first time? Is it a great distance driver. Do you find that it is a driver you can throttle down to 80% with and be very accurate?

WBB: Carolina Outlasts Clemson, 65-58
Posted December 31, 2012
Clemson, S.C. — Xylina McDaniel had 19 points, six rebounds and six steals and No. 16 North Carolina rallied from a 10-point second-half deficit to beat Clemson, 65-58, Sunday afternoon at Littlejohn Coliseum in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both teams. Waltiea Rolle added 16 points and Tierra Ruffin-Pratt finished with 15 points, six boards and six steals as Carolina won its first league game for the 17th time in 19 years.
Nikki Dixon had 22 points for Clemson (4-8, 0-1 ACC), while Quinyotta Pettaway finished with 10 points and a game-high 18 rebounds.
The Lady Tigers' zone defense stifled Carolina for much of the afternoon and the Tar Heels turned it over 10 times in the games opening five minutes. Clemson led 34-28 at the break and stretched that lead to 10 early in the second half.
But UNC (13-1, 1-0 ACC) finally picked up the intensity and used its defense to cut into the Clemson advantage. Carolina forced 35 Lady Tiger turnovers and converted those into 36 points on the afternoon, finally taking the lead for good on a McDaniel steal and coast-to-coast layup that was part of a decisive 15-0 run.
Clemson would not go quietly, however, and the Lady Tigers were back within two at 58-56 with two minutes to play. The Carolina lead was three when McDaniel, who had taken a hard fall and was trailing the play, picked the pocket of Charmaine Tay and went the distance for a layup to put UNC up 61-58.
Ruffin-Pratt and Krista Gross each made a pair of free throws in the closing seconds to ice the game for UNC.
Clemson won the rebounding battle, 48-35, but could not overcome a 20-point difference in points off turnovers. Carolina had a season-high 22 steals and won for the fourth time this season when trailing at halftime.
UNC will return home for its home league opener Thursday when the Tar Heels host No. 9 Maryland at 7 p.m.

In 2008, Congress enacted the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA). This past spring, the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission (EEOC) published the final ADAAA regulations. Since the passage of the ADAAA and the publication of the regulations, administrative agencies and courts have seen a steady increase in the number of disability claims filed. For instance, in the 2007 fiscal year (the last year before passage of the ADAAA), there were 17,734 charges of discrimination filed that included disability discrimination claims. In the 2011 fiscal year, that number rose to 25,282 charges.
The increase in "association discrimination" claims is of particular interest. These claims are brought by employees who allege to be victims of an adverse employment decision based not on their own disability, but on their relationship with someone who has a disability. Association discrimination claims generally fall into one of three categories:
- Expense claims involve situations where an employee suffers an adverse action because his or her spouse has a disability that is costly to the employer (e.g. health plan coverage costs).
- Disability by association claims involve situations where an employer believes the employee could also become inflicted with the same disability (e.g., an employee's partner is infected with HIV and the employer fears the employee could become infected).
- Distraction claims involve situations where the employer is concerned that an employee is distracted at work because the employee's family member has a disability that requires attention.
To avoid liability for such claims, employers must be sure to base their decisions on well-documented performance issues or other non-discriminatory reasons as opposed to the relative's disability.
Another major change that is leading to increased litigation involves conditions that are in remission or are episodic in nature. Under the ADA, such conditions did not qualify as a disability protected by the statute. However, under the ADAAA, such a condition may qualify if it "would substantially limit a major life activity when active." In one recent decision, a federal court in Indiana denied an employer's summary judgment motion and found that an employee whose cancer was in remission had a "disability" under the ADAAA. Other courts have recently held that episodic depression, carpal tunnel syndrome and multiple sclerosis could qualify as disabilities under the ADAAA.
In addition to the increasing number of claims, the EEOC has begun filing more lawsuits on behalf of employees. In one case that has been garnering a good deal of attention, the EEOC claims that Walgreens discriminated against an employee who had diabetes. The employee, a cashier, was terminated after Walgreens accused her of stealing a bag of potato chips. The employee alleges she took the bag of potato chips and ate them to stave off low blood sugar. Even though she didn't pay for the chips right away (despite sitting at the cash register), she claims she paid for them as soon as possible. Her lawsuit claims that Walgreens should have accommodated her medical emergency. Among other reasons, Walgreens is defending on the grounds that it has a zero-tolerance policy for employees consuming Walgreens' products before they are paid for.
Finally, despite the fact that the final regulations and ADAAA are still fresh, the EEOC has hinted that further guidance is forthcoming. In a recent webinar sponsored by the American Bar Association, two EEOC commissioners indicated that the EEOC is drafting new guidance on reasonable accommodation principles under the ADAAA. This guidance should be welcomed by both employers and employees, as the last EEOC guidance was published in 2002.

Why an Expected Event Can Move Markets
Why has the stock market sold off and bond market rallied so hard after Obama won re-election? All the state-level polls indicated that the president held a narrow but consistent lead in most of the key battleground states. Intrade had the odds of his winning at over 60% for the two weeks or so before the election. So while the outcome was hardly certain, the market is reacting as though the result is a surprise.
So why would the markets react so severely to a known event? Aren't markets supposed to be a forward-discounting mechanism? The answer to this puzzle is the key to understanding how to trade and anticipate events going forward....576 more words left in this article.

Peterson collects first Major League hit
OAKLAND -- Shane Peterson, who was called up Tuesday from Triple-A Sacramento for his Major League debut, drew a second straight start at first base Wednesday. He recorded his first hit, a single to center in the fourth, along with his first RBI and run. Peterson is likely headed back to the minors, as regular first baseman Brandon Moss is expected to come off paternity leave and rejoin the team Friday against Tampa Bay.
"He made a very good impression," A's manager Bob Melvin said of Peterson. "This kid, he's ready to play in the big leagues. It's just not his time right at this minute."

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, which is composed of twenty-two scientific organizations representing over 84,000 members, issued a public policy statement on the teaching of evolution on December 20, 2005 -- coincidentally, the same day in which teaching "intelligent design" was ruled to be unconstitutional in Kitzmiller v. Dover.
Challenges to evolution education occur in informal learning environments as well as the public schools, as "Muddling science at parks and museums," published in the August 2006 issue of Geotimes, reiterates:
As reported in the December 2005 Geotimes, some parks and museums have stepped up to the task to make evolution understandable, so as not to be confused with religious beliefs such as 'intelligent design,' which holds that the complexity of life is evidence that somet
In anticipation of the release of the paperback edition of Chris Mooney's The Republican War on Science, both the complete text of chapter 11 (entitled "Creation Science 2.0") and of a special update, composed especially for the paperback edition, have been posted on the book's website.
Two days after the Chronicle of Higher Education broke the story about the absence of evolutionary biology from a list of college majors eligible for a federal grant, both New Scientist and The New York Times have provided further details.
Writing in the Kansas City Star (August 21, 2006), Laura Scott urges Kansas voters to remain on guard even after the August 1, 2006, primary election.

A newly elected Marina Coast Water District director is wasting no time trying undo the recent approval of the Monterey Downs water-needs assessment.
Director Peter Le wants an addendum sent to the city of Seaside stating that it has little, if any, water allocation left for the project and that Monterey County has not offered its own.
Le and newly elected board President Tom Moore were sworn in Tuesday, creating a new progressive majority with director Jan Shriner. The old board rushed through approval of the assessment in November, saying it allowed Seaside to move forward with its environmental review.
The assessment concluded the equestrian-themed project straddling Seaside and unincorporated land will need 852 acre-feet of water per year. Of the water the jurisdictions were allocated under an agreement with the Army in 1993, it stated, Seaside had 199.7 acre-feet uncommitted and Monterey County had 182.5.
Together, it concluded, the water was enough to supply a first phase of the residential, retail and sports development. The remainder would come from future desalination and reclaimed water projects.
The same week Marina Coast approved that assessment, however, the Fort Ord Reuse Authority board received a report concluding Seaside had only 27.9 acre-feet remaining. The picture may be even worse than that.
In the interim, Marina Coast engineers quietly amended their own documents to show Seaside is actually 204 acre-feet per year beyond its total. While much of that is water that is allocated but not yet in use, or water that will be replaced by recycled water when and if it becomes available, the documents leave an unsettled picture of Seaside's actual water bank.
Le asked the matter be on the board's agenda at the next meeting, Jan. 8. He is asking that the assessment be amended to show Seaside has just the 27.9 acre-feet available.
He wants the district to remind Seaside in writing that Monterey County has not agreed to allot any of its water to the project; that Seaside has already allocated 207 acre-feet to the Main Gate project; and that, coupled with Seaside's current consumption, it leaves little for Monterey Downs.
The requested agenda item is one of two dozen Le presented in a laundry list of concerns ranging from when and where the board meets to fiscal reviews of the district's water projects, including the failed regional desalination project. He has asked for a review of the district's travel and expense-reimbursement policies and a closed session regarding the performance of General Manager Jim Heitzman.

RIVER EDGE, N.J., April 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Nephros, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: NEPH), a commercial stage medical device company that develops and sells high performance liquid purification ultrafilters, announced today that it has commenced its previously disclosed rights offering. On April 17, 2013, the Company will distribute to holders of its common stock and/or warrants one non-transferable subscription right for each share of common stock, and each share of common stock underlying a warrant, held as of April 4, 2013. The rights offering will expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 17, 2013, if not extended by the Company in its sole discretion.
On March 4, 2013, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a registration statement on Form S-1, which was subsequently amended by a registration statement on Form S-1/A filed with the SEC on April 8, 2013. The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on April 17, 2013.
Each subscription right will entitle its holder to purchase 0.18776 of a share of common stock of the Company at a subscription price of $0.60 per share. The Company will not issue fractional shares issuable upon exercise of the subscription rights. Instead, the Company will round up any such fractional shares to the nearest whole share.
The rights offering includes an over-subscription privilege which permits each rights holder that exercises its rights in full to purchase additional shares of common stock that remain unsubscribed at the expiration of the rights offering. This over-subscription privilege is subject to the availability and allocation of shares among holders exercising this over-subscription privilege. Assuming the rights offering is fully subscribed, the Company estimates that it will receive gross proceeds of $3 million, less the expenses of the rights offering.
In addition to the rights offering, the Company also announced today that, commencing April 17, 2013, and during the period that the rights offering is open (or until 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 17, 2013), it has temporarily reduced the exercise price for its warrants issued in March 2011 from $0.40 per share to $0.30 per share. After the expiration of this offering period, the exercise price will revert back to $0.40 per share.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities, in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any jurisdiction. The offering may only be made by means of a prospectus, a copy of which may be obtained from Nephros, Inc., 41 Grand Avenue, River Edge, New Jersey 07661, Attention: Gerald J. Kochanski, (201) 343-5202, ext. 102.

When "Inclusion" Results in a Total Lack of Fairness for Dads
Words like empowerment and inclusion get thrown around a lot today. But do we really know what they mean? Do these principles in fact have any intrinsic value, or are they just the flavors of the week?
