Adam Boyes: PlayStation's decision to fund indie games 'comes from the gut'
There may be some research that goes into deciding what indie games Sony chooses to fund to come to PlayStation, but it's far from an exact science. In fact, it's more of a gut feeling, according to Adam Boyes, PlayStation's VP of Publisher and Developer Relations, who also admitted he's really not sure what the industry wants anymore.
In the latest issue of Game Informer, Boyd spoke about the initial process in determining whether to fund an indie game even if Sony doesn't expect it to be lucrative in hopes that it'll add prestige to the platform.
"A lot of that comes from your gut," he said. "You could look at Minecraft."
"I use the example of Dear Esther. I remember when I was at Capcom and Dear Esther came out on PC and I played it. You walked around an island with no weapon and you just explore. You can't even jump.
"I realized at that point that I don't know what the industry wants anymore, because it sold 100,000 units on the first day," he explained. "So it's a mixture of following your gut and thinking, 'This is an incredible experience,' plus, 'What has this team done before?' Sometimes, the most amazing games can come from people who haven't made a game before, other times what they've done in the past is really important."
Boyd went on to say that "obviously" Sony wouldn't do a deal where the company thought they'd lose money, but also added that "you never know what the next Minecraft or Angry Birds is going to be."
"You just hope that your gut is in tune with what a lot of the rest of the world wants, and the rest is up to the Internet," Boyes concluded.
Since the launch of the PS4, Sony has made it abundantly clear that they are committed to indies. All one has to do is look at the lineup of games for PS4, PS3, or Vita for proof of that commitment. The blockbusters will still be there, but indies have allowed Sony to expand its offerings and provide new and unique gaming experiences to its players.

Been a while since the last blog post, huh? Well, I've been busy reading and re-reading quite a few books and studying the representation of protagonists and antagonists, mainly. Which made me think of characters in manga and leads me to this question: Who are your favorite lead characters, and who are your favorite bad guys?
Personally, I can't help but say Goku, first. The archetype of typical shonen manga protagonist - a glutton, a tad slow, a guy who can make friends out of enemies and improves every time he fights a stronger enemy to match their strength.
And then there's the classics, Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop, Alucard from Hellsing, Mugen from Samurai Champloo - I could go on and you'd keep noticing how they're mostly seinen series. Though before I move on to the bad guys, as a sort of lead-over I have to mention my favorite character - Takamura (from Hajime no Ippo), for sure.
So, bad guys. Vegeta anyone? Killing your pal and one of the last 3 (known) survivors of your race because he can't beat someone who's obviously stronger than him? Pretty evil, in a good way.
In fact, let me stop here and let you carry on, I'm more curious of who you can think of and I'll probably use your comments to re-read or re-watch a series or two. :)

Q Now that March 22nd has been announced as budget day, is there anything l should do before the day. Are there likely to be any nasty surprises?
A It seems likely that the chancellor, Gordon Brown, will want to avoid any unpopular tax measures while he is cranking up his campaign to succeed Tony Blair as prime minister. Although many commentators are worried that Mr Brown has his figures wrong, and that the economic outlook is rather bleak, the immediate pressure to raise extra revenue has been eased by big inflows of corporation tax and measures to control overspending.
As a result it is likely that this year's budget will be a dull affair with the chancellor relying mainly on extra tax being raised by the Inland Revenue's aggressive attitude in chasing tax "dodgers" and closing the few remaining tax loopholes. And it is expected that the very generous tax relief given to venture capital trusts in the last budget will probably not be continued.
The main interest, in fact, is likely to be centred on the final pieces in the legislation for the "simplified", but radical, new pension regime coming into force from April 6. Even at this very late stage there are still a number of important details to be resolved. One is whether the chancellor will do another U-turn, as with residential property, and withdraw unquoted companies as a permitted investment in Sipps (Self Invested Pension Plans). Of wider significance could be further moves to restrict using the new pension arrangements as a means of reducing inheritance tax (IHT).
The chancellor is already committed to raising the IHT exemption to £275,000 in the next tax year, and to £300,000 for 2007/8, so it is unlikely there will any further concessions in this area despite the fact that the rise in property prices in recent years means a lot more people will be liable to pay IHT bills in the future.
Many of the most popular ways to mitigate IHT by the use of trusts will be hit by the new rules on the taxation of trusts coming into effect on April 6. It is important, therefore, that the annual tax-free allowances are used to the full in every tax year. You can give away tax-free up to £3,000 each year, plus a further £3,000 if you have not used the previous year's allowance. You can also give away to as many people as you like a sum of £250 each annually.
Another tax-free allowance that cannot be carried forward is the capital gains tax exemption (currently £8,500). After a year of booming share markets it is particularly sensible to use this allowance, where possible, to reduce your tax liability. If you have not used your capital gains tax exemption on anything else, you can simply sell shares that have made good profits to crystallise the gains tax-free. In the past you could buy the shares back almost immediately at much the same price by "bed and breakfasting". That was selling the shares in the afternoon and buying them back the next morning, often with only a single dealing charge. Unfortunately the Inland Revenue banned that but you can still use what is known as "bed and spousing". Married couples can arrange for one spouse to sell shares whilst the other immediately buys them back. This retains the original joint portfolio and uses up one of the capital gains tax exemptions. The other spouse's exemption can be utilised by reversing the procedure leaving both spouses with reduced tax liabilities.
Another ploy is "Bed and Isa-ing". In this case you sell shares to use up your capital gains exemption and buy them back for inclusion in an Isa (Individual Savings Account) where they will be permanently exempt from capital gains tax.
It is a useful way of using up your annual Isa allowance, which like the capital gains exemption, cannot be carried over to the next financial year - if you don't use this allowance you lose it. Although share dividends in an Isa are now liable to tax, Isas remain an attractive investment. There is no capital gains tax liability at all and interest from cash and/or bonds is also tax-free. Not using your Isa allowance, if only to invest in a mini-cash Isa, is like looking a gift horse in the mouth.
Traditionally another "must" for end of tax year planning has been to ensure that you try and use as much as possible of your annual pension allowance - subject to age restrictions - setting the maximum level. From April 6 2006 all the age restrictions will be removed and so will the ability to "carry back" pension contributions to cover the previous year. There will be two main allowances. You will be able to pay pension contributions up to the equivalent of 100% of your earnings, with an initial maximum of £215,000 each tax year. There will also be a lifetime allowance of £1.5m . Those fortunate enough to have built up pension funds near or above the £1.5m lifetime limit will have to consider seeking "protection" from the penal taxation charged on any excess.
For the vast majority, however, the new pension regime will offer much greater flexibility. The Revenue has announced steps to restrict the reinvestment of the tax-free cash sum into funding another pension, with additional tax relief. Nevertheless there will be considerable scope for making the most of a whole new world of pension investment opportunities available from April 6. It is worth taking this into consideration when deciding what to do before the end of the current tax year.

Henri Bendel plans store at Walt Whitman
Luxury retailer Henri Bendel will make its Long Island debut in June at the Walt Whitman Shops in Huntington Station.
The upscale chain that specializes in accessories, cosmetics and gifts, known for its signature brown and white striped shopping bags, plans to open a 2,000-square-foot store, one of the mall's new additions as it undergoes a 72,000-square-foot expansion and renovation.
"The North Shore, middle-Island customer there in that pocket of Long Island is a very desirable customer," said Chris Fiore, president of Henri Bendel. "Why? Because she is a sophisticated shopper. She has good taste. She doesn't mind spending a couple of bucks on herself, and she knows the New York retail scene."
Fiore said the new store is part of the company's expansion program. Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group Inc. is making "substantial" investments in its Long Island malls, including upgrading Walt Whitman's property and tenant mix, he said.
About 40,000 square feet will be added to the mall's first floor and about 30,000 square feet to its second floor. Ten to 12 new stores, including restaurants, will be added. Henri Bendel, which is owned by Columbus, Ohio-based Limited Brands Inc., will be on the first floor, across from Saks Fifth Avenue.
"We're on an expansion program, so we want to go in the best centers in North America," Fiore said.
Simon's Roosevelt Field mall in Garden City is also about to undergo a more than $200 million renovation and expansion, adding Long Island's first Neiman Marcus and several upscale casual restaurants.
Roosevelt Field is also an attractive location for Henri Bendel, Fiore said. "I would certainly hope to be in Roosevelt Field within a reasonable amount of time," he said.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has filed a federal lawsuit aiming to put a stop to pervasive anti-LGBT bullying allegedly coming from students and faculty at schools in Mississippi's Moss Point School District.
The SPLC announced its lawsuit today, after the advocacy group and school district failed to reach an agreement satisfactorily addressing the repeated anti-LGBT harassment suffered by Destin Holmes, a 17-year-old lesbian who has been subjected to anti-LGBT slurs and harassment since she was a student at Magnolia Junior High School.
The harassment, based on Holmes's sexual orientation and typically masculine style of dress, got so severe that Holmes left the school district to be homeschooled for a year, according to the SPLC. Holmes left Magnolia Junior High in March 2012 after the then-principal reportedly called her a "pathetic fool" and told her "I don't want a dyke in this school." At that point, SPLC demanded that the district take action to stop the harassment.
"We are disappointed that the district fails to see the serious harm its deliberate inaction causes its students," said Anjali Nair, SPLC staff attorney. "District officials who are entrusted with the safety and education of all students not only ignored, dismissed and even blamed victims for the abusive behavior of faculty and other students, they also participated in discriminatory acts."
When homeschooling became an unsustainable financial burden for Holmes and her family, she enrolled in the district's Moss Point High School, where, the lawsuit contends, she was again regularly harassed. At least one teacher refused to refer to Holmes by female pronouns, even after she repeatedly asked to be referenced by such.
"I deserve to go to school where students, and especially the teachers, don't always call me names," Holmes said in the SPLC release announcing the lawsuit. "The district should have protected me and made sure I was learning, like the rest of the kids. Instead, the students, teachers and even principal, called me names. It shouldn't have happened to me, and it shouldn't happen to anyone else."
Watch Holmes describe just a fraction of the harassment she endured in the video below, courtesy of SPLC.

" A disease caused by reduced or abnormal production in the body of the enzyme inhibitor alpha-1 antitrypsin. Body tissues and blood normally contain powerful protease enzymes responsible for attacking foreign substances within the body that may be harmful, for example: tobacco smoke. "
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Defficiency (A1AT), is a genetic disorder of the lungs and liver of which many people are completely ignorant. We've all heard of Cystic Fibrosis, havent we? Well, A1AT is at least as common as that in the population, if not more prevalent. Since members of my family have been identified as both carrying the defective gene and having the full blown disorder, Im going to enlighten everyone of the potential risks.
~What is Alpha-1?~
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Defficiency is an initially silent and innocuous chemical defect of the lungs and the liver. It is only over time that its devasting physical effects are felt, by which time the damage is often extensive.
A1AT is an inherited disorder manefesting as the inability of the liver to produce the enzyme antitrypsin. This enzyme serves to protect the lungs from the enzyme elastase. Elastase is a powerful protease enzyme produced by inflammatory cells to attack foreign substances in the body. Any pollutants that come into contact with the lung tissue, for example cigarette smoke or airborne inpurities, are combatted by this enzyme. However, the blood serum levels of elasase must be regulated by A1AT, since it can, in unchecked concentrations, attack the lung and liver tissues. Elastase breaks down elastin, the protein which keeps the lungs supple and elastic- without A1AT to control levels of elastase, the lungs are repeatedly attacked and rendered scarred. This ultimately results in the development of *Emphysema*and/or *COPD* (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
~What Gene is Responsible for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Defficiency?~
It is caused by a defective gene on chromosome 14. The full blown disorder is present when this defective gene is inherited from both parents. Both my mother and father are carriers, and I am one of four siblings. One of us has the disease, the other 3 are carriers.
~What is the Difference between a Carrier and Someone with A1ATD?~
Someone with A1AT Defficiency will produce next to no antitrypsin in their liver, and thus are highly suceptible to lung and liver damage. These people are strongly advised to avoid smoking and drinking, as these substances are foreign to the body and 'excite' the inflammatory cells into action. Such individuals would require monitoring and treatment. Some medical communities are looking into the possibility of transfusing A1AT into the body to replace the absent enzyme. Gene therapy may also be a way forward. If you already have extensive lung disease, then lung transplants are possible, but obviously the new organs can degenerate if you arent careful as your genes still dont encode for A1AT
Carriers are affected to varying degrees. They dont make as much A1AT as a normal person, about 60-80% of that of a normal individual (normal people have two effective genes, carriers have one defective and one normal gene), and should therefore be careful not to smoke and drink to excess. They may be slightly more at risk of lung disease and cirrosis of the liver. Generally speaking, carriers dont need treatment- they just need to be vigilant.
~Who is at Risk?~
This defective gene is one of the commonest in the Caucasion population. It is particularly prevalent in Northern Europe, Great Britain, and Scandanavia.
~How Does the Disease Develop?~
The signs of emphysema usually appear, in smokers, at the ages of 30-40 years; in non-smokers, usually 15-20 years later.
Problems with the liver are sometimes seen in newborns, and vigilance is necessary. Those people who are unlucky enough to develop liver function problems may see the signs in adolesence. The effects of A1AT deffiency on the liver, and the course of the disease is less understood than the mechanisms involving the lungs.
~What is Emphysema?~
Emphysema is a lung disease whereby the aveoli (air sacs) of the lungs, where gaseous exchange takes place (oxygen diffuses into the blood and carbon dioxide passes out), collapse. This creates larger air spaces in the alveoli and therefore a reduced surace area for gaseous exchange to take place. The efficiency of lung respiration is depleted and symptoms of breathlessness, fatigue, exhaustion upon physical exersion, bluish tinge to lips and complexion, recurrent chest infections, and possbile heart failure become evident.
~What Can I do With this Information?~
If you are a young smoker (or non-smoker) who has repeated bronchitis and chest infections, then it might be worth requesting a genetic test. Be prepared for the GP to get you on a programme to quit smoking first though!
The genetic test is straightforward, involving a simple blood test. The levels of A1AT can also be tested to give an idea if yours is within the normal range. If you are found to have a defective gene, as a carrier, or indeed are seen to have the disorder fullblown, then your immediate family may require testing too. I know that I can a carrier with the lower end of the normal range of A1AT in my blood, so I am careful not to smoke or drink to excess. I get back pain if I am in a smoky environment and feel physically ill- polluted areas make me feel lethargic aswell.
So, if you have any concerns regarding your health- your lung capacity, breathlessness, wheezing, excessive tiredness, an undue frequency of chest infections, then if you're having a blood test just mention to the GP 'Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Defficiency' to be tested. You'll sound clever, and you may even prevent problems in the long-term. Trust me, a life being a young adult on oxygen and steriods is no laughing matter. Best of health everyone.

It's possible for any hair consumer to still visit their favorite salon for amazing hair cuts, colors and services even if they don't have the budget Ms. Jolie may have. How? Follow some of the secret ways to save listed below.
Not only will you potentially save a bundle, but you can have amazing professionally styled hair in the same league as some of the best tressed stars like Angie.
The best hairstylists will understand if you've recently lost your job or have other financial factors which require you to follow a budget. In today's world everyone understands when money's tight.
While it never hurts to ask what options are available, remember to always be respectful and polite when inquiring about potential savings or deals. If your hairstylist or salon doesn't offer coupons or loyalty programs don't take it personally. There may be many hidden reasons for how a salon or hairstylist runs their businesses.
1. Calculate your budget for hair products and services
before you visit the salon
Obviously if you have limited funds you may want to pass on major hair color changes which require ongoing maintenance. Instead of full highlights opt for partial highlights and/or lowlights which will save money, but still give you a chic look.
2. Ask about referral programs
If a referral program isn't available ask if you might trade new customer referrals for discounts on salon products. Some salons will offer good customer freebies such as free bang or neck trims in between regular cuts. Others offer product refills at discounted prices. It never hurts to ask what specials the salon makes available to loyal customers.
3. Inquire about package deals and special group rates
Hairstylists working to build their client base might be willing to provide a discount on your hair services if you're willing to schedule during slow times or willing to come in at the last minute after a cancellation.
Ask about being added to the salon's e-mail list for specials on last minute appointments, seasonal coupons or discounts or close-outs on professional salon products. Don't forget to follow your favorite hairstylist on Facebook and Twitter for secret deals.
4. Work with apprentices or new stylists
Ask if the salon has different rates for new talent versus experienced stylists.
5. Arrive at salon with clean dry hair or do your own
post session blow-out
Doing part of your own hair service is not always an option depending on the type of service you have requested. These may work for hair cuts when hair is cut wet or on simple trims. It is unlikely to be an option with hair color or chemical services. Ask before you make any assumptions.
6. Combining services
7. Buy professional hair care products at your salon
If the salon also offers a discount on bottle refills you will save even more. Some salons will post printable coupons for their products lines on their websites. Check before each visit to see if there are secret deals for you to utilize.
8. Loyalty programs
9. Stock up on products when they're on special
10. Stretch out your appointments without sacrificing
the results to your hair
When your stylist understands you will remain loyal after your financial challenges have passed they will be willing to suggest hair cuts or color which last longer and have a softer or more invisible growing out period.
11. Avoid buying products you don't really need
Keep track of the hair care products you have at home and avoid buying products you don't really need.
12. Ask for gift certificates as gifts
13. Volunteer to be a hair model
14. Ask your hairstylist to recommend at-home hair
maintenance tips
A great hairstylist you can trust and be honest with is one of your very best treasures. Treat your professional hairstylists with respect, integrity and loyalty and they will do the same.
When your fortunes have been restored don't forget to repay any special ways your hairstylist or salon helped you save by tipping generously, recommending the salon to friends and family and expressing your thanks.
Remember, while the majority of hairstylists sincerely wish to help their clients in good times and bad, they are in the business of doing hair to make a living and have their own financial commitments. Honor that knowledge and all will be good with the hair gods.

The first phase of a cleanup plan to prepare the vacant Sibley Mill for redevelopment will start later this year.
"Our intent is to get it cleaned up environmentally," said Dayton Sherrouse, the executive director of the Augusta Canal Authority, which purchased the historic landmark last year from Avondale Mills.
The contractor, American Environmental and Construction Services, will be paid $180,212 for projects that include removal of pesticide residue in baseboards, caustic tanks and lines, mercury from old gauges and other materials left behind from a century of textile operations.
"Right now, the economy is not good, and we don't have any interested parties, but in this down time we are trying to get it more developer-ready for when things turn around," Sherrouse said.
The authority applied last October for a $200,000 matching grant through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Brownfield Cleanup Program, but was not chosen for this fiscal year.
After financing the initial phase on its own, the authority will reapply for those grants if they remain available. Future cleanup phases would involve removal of contaminated soil and paint.
The pending work, which includes items suggested by Georgia's Environmental Protection Division, is expected to be complete by the end of the year.
The authority's $800,000 purchase included -- in addition to the 518,000-square-foot mill -- the site's turbines and its electricity.
The water-powered generators typically earn $1,200 to $1,300 per day through power sales, which could help the authority maintain the site and provide matching funds for future grants.
Future plans include marketing the site for uses that might include residential, professional and commercial uses. The site is a few blocks from an already redeveloped textile site -- Enterprise Mill -- which also houses the canal authority's offices and interpretive center.
In 2001, the canal authority purchased Sibley's next-door neighbor, King Mill, for $250,000.
The authority then leased the building to a new operator, Ohio-based Standard Textile, which has kept it open as an active manufacturer and employer.
All those sites lie within the Augusta Canal National heritage Area.

Jonathan Toews has chosen to be the big man on campus over big money in the Windy City, at least for now.
The third overall pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft by the Chicago Blackhawks, Toews will be buying school supplies and returning to the University of the North Dakota Fighting Sioux for his sophomore year this season.
"It was a bunch of things," Toews said of what played into his decision. "I went to (a prospects) camp in Chicago and they were interested in getting me for this year. Obviously it wasn't the money that made the difference."
"It's always nice to have those bonuses and everything, but that's always going to be there. If I have a good year this year too, it's just waiting for me at the end of the season."
"...Chicago picked me because eventually they want somebody that can step in a lead their team."
The key word there is eventually.
"I think if I stay one more year at North Dakota, I'll be able to develop that side of my game," he said.
There's no doubt Toews will be the go-to-guy for the Fighting Sioux in his second season. He was dominating towards the end of last season and finished with 22 goals and 39 points in 42 games. Not to mention his World Junior gold medal.
"All the things I am going to experience at North Dakota this year, I just realized that I would be missing out if I left early," Toews said before taking to the ice with some fellow high-profile players for the Sizzlin' Summer Showdown tonight in Selkirk in support of the Believe in the Goal Foundation and CancerCare Manitoba.
"It's huge on most campus's but there's nothing like it in the WCHA and Grand Forks. They love their hockey there. They're huge Sioux fans. When you're succeeding and doing well, they love you and support you. To be a part of that, that's really special."
Playing there is as close to playing pro hockey a player can get without earning a paycheque for it.
"It's great hockey. I found that out last year," Toews said. "Hopefully I can play a bigger part, a bigger role than what I did last year."
Tickets for the Sizzlin' Summer Showdown tonight are at Ticketmaster.
The game will pit the top NHL and AHL players from Manitoba against each other. It starts at 7 p.m.

Ag Criost An Siol
I'm not sure why this tune isn't listed here, it's a gorgeous air written by Sean O'Riada. Derek Bell plays a lovely version on Musical Ireland CD.
Translated as "to Christ the Seed", it is the title of a prayer, which Ó Riada set to music.
Some might tell you that it was to commemorate a papal visit in 1979, but Ó Riada died in 1971, so the claim is refuted.

Ok I haven't been so active lately but for the past 2 days I feel like I can barely walk, my calf muscles are hurting really bad! I have a sit down job and I havent really been walking around much but I cant stand this pain, its annoying. Everytime I get up to walk it really hurts my legs, is this just a part of the pregnancy? Cause I havent ever heard of anything like this.
I really hope you guys dont think I ask too many questions, just wondering if anyone else had this problem or if they know why its happening.

Lol there isnt anything wrong with asking lots of questions. How far along are you? When I was about 34 weeks that started happening, but im not really sure why. My muscles felt like I had gone running for 3 days straight... My inner thighs really started feeling over used once I started getting frequent braxton hicks, and when I started dialating... My tummy muscles were sore too.

During pregnancy many women notice that they experience calf cramps, especially at night time when sleeping (or trying to sleep). There are varied causes of calf cramps during pregnancy, but no noted single cure for them.
One of the reasons your calf muscles may cramp is because you have an extra 40-50% of blood volume in your system which needs to be pumped around your body. When you are walking and moving during the day, your calf muscles act like a pump and help the blood to flow against gravity, back up towards your heart. When you are lying down at night, it is not as easy for your heart to do all the work, pumping the extra blood down to your feet and then back up again. Fluid can 'pool', that is the circulation slows down, and swelling can occur in the veins in the legs. This fluid retention can contribute to cramps occurring and also leg aches.
The other reason that leg swelling or slowing of the circulation can occur while sitting or lying is your growing uterus as your baby grows. This makes it harder for your blood to move through the veins back towards the heart. Simply being aware of this can help you to understand why leg swelling or calf cramps can occur.
After sport or exercise, calf stretches would often be considered important, amongst other stretches. During a busy day of being on your feet, the calf muscles are working, but stretching after 'a days work' is not often thought of. Your calf muscles are working harder during pregnancy with the weight of your growing baby to move you around. Why not try and stretch them at the end of the day or before you go to bed?
Calf muscle stretches ~ there are two different calf muscles to stretch:
gastrocnemius ~ which is a muscle that goes from behind your knee down to the achilles tendon behind your ankle. To stretch this muscle you should place one foot in front of the other at a comfortable distance apart. Keep the heel of your back leg on the floor and your knee straight, (front leg, knee bent), while you lunge forwards until you feel a gentle stretch at the back of your calf.
Soleus ~ this muscle goes from just below the back of your knee down to the achilles tendon behind your ankle. To stretch this muscle, stay in the position described above, and keeping the heel of the back leg on the floor, bend the back knee until you feel a gentle stretch at the back of your calf. You may feel this stretch lower down in your calf muscle. This stretch can also be done with both legs at the same time. Stand in front of a wall, place your hands on it for support with your feet level but comfortable apart. Bend both knees until you feel a gentle stretch in your calf muscle.
Hold each stretch between 10 - 30 seconds, and repeat on the other side. You may want to do this more than once on each side. When you are pregnant you should not overstretch due to the relaxin hormone in your body which softens ligaments. You should feel the stretch comfortably with no pain, but do not push into a strong stretch.
Ankle circles and calf pump exercises ~ pooling of the blood in your calf muscles can also occur if you have been sitting for long periods during the day or in the evening. Again your circulation slows, so to help the muscles pump the blood back you can do ankle circles or simply move your feet up and down while you are sitting (calf pumps). This can also occur if you are standing for any length of time. Again calf pumps may assist to reduce leg aches in this situation or cramps from occurring.
Cool down slowly and stretch after exercise ~ if you exercise during the day it is important to do a longer cool down while you are pregnant. Your heart has been pumping the blood around faster so if you stop suddenly it can cause pooling of blood in the veins in your legs. Slow down for the last 5 - 7 minutes of your exercise program, and then finish with some calf stretches, especially if you have experienced leg cramps.
Use a towel to help you stretch if you get cramps at night ~ if you do wake up with leg cramps, you can try to relieve it by gently pulling your toes up towards you. This will stretch the back of your leg, and the muscles should relax. If you are unable to do this, sometimes using a towel under your foot and pulling gently can help you to do the stretch more easily. It also stops you from needing to wake up your partner to help you get rid of the cramp.
Try not to cross your legs and have your legs supported properly ~ crossing your legs for long periods of time is not recommended as this also slows down your circulation. If you are resting during the day or evening try to have your legs elevated, but do not place your feet on a chair or stool and leave the backs of your knees unsupported. Lying on a lounge with your legs up is a better option.
Overheating at night ~ being too hot during the night may also lead to leg cramps. The extra heat can cause the veins to open up slightly, and this in turn can cause pooling of the blood in your calf muscles. Wearing too many clothes to bed including socks, and the use of doonas have been associated with becoming overheated during the night.
Seek further advice ~ there are other suggested reasons for calf cramps occurring. These include calcium deficiency or lack of potassium in the diet. If the above suggestions do not reduce your cramps, please seek further advice from your midwife, or medical practitioner.

Nice paper
By Ms. J
from San Mateo, CA
Comments about Black Ink Block Printing Packs:
This paper is nice but the pack could be improved by including more exciting colors, or at least two. It's a bit too basic and some are too dark to use for my printing purposes so I'll have to find something else to do with them.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Good product, fades a little
By Jim the Runner
from Antarctica
The smooth side takes relief ink really well. I like them for lino block printing. The colored ones fade in the sun, so watch it. They are a little thin if you are doing a reduction print with several colors. The price is competitive if you factor in the shipping.
Special Printing Paper
By MaddieDee
from Boynton Beach, Florida
Love printing with this paper. I do woodblock prints and they come out with a very nice look on these papers. I hand rub them. Wish they came in a larger size.

Excellent for hand-burnishing
By Paul G
from Albany, NY
I've found I get excellent results when hand-burnishing linocut prints with Black Ink paper. The paper has just the right texture and weight and gives me really smooth prints. I've tried a few of the other well-respected printmaking papers (Arches, etc), and found they are far too heavy or the incorrect texture to get good prints without a press (IMO). I wish Black Ink sold this same paper in slightly larger sizes. A 9x13"-ish version would be great!

Love this paper!
By housekat
from Kansas
I've been hand printing glue line plates over gelli plate prints. This paper prints clearly and I can see the ink transfer from the back as I spoon rub, so I know when which areas I have covered. A good range of subtle and rich the colors in the variety pack.

I discovered a strange behaviour of the theme's layout, when several images – in a post or in the sidebar – come together.
When hovering over an image, a box appears – that is in the CSS, I know, and it works, if there is just 1 image at this place.
But when several images come together in one line or in another line below, then the hover effect causes, that when you, for example, hover over the first image in the first line, the image right below in the next line "escapes" to the right.
Normal layout, without hover over an image:
Hover over the first image in the first line at the left, causes that the first image in second line goes to the right:
Same problem with images coming together in the sidebar:
Normal without hovering over images:
With hovering over the first image in first line:
See it live here: http://tinyurl.com/39ecylm
in the post at the left side and in the sidebar under "daily inspiration" on the right side.
I think, it must be the hover script/code, that causes this problem, when a box appears around the image, when hovering it and therefor the image needs more place?
… I don't know, I wasn't able to figure this out …
Do you have any idea?
Thanks.July 28, 2010 at 2:28 pm #30658
There's a problem with margin in the CSS forcing the width of the content to be greater than the content area causing it to drop down.
If you look at your "Letzte Artikel" widget, the hover effect doesn't cause this problem within the theme, it looks like you're using a third party plugin / widget or custom coding.
Have a look at changing the CSS for this:
.thmb {
.thmb li {
list-style:none outside none !important;
.thmb li img {
border:0 dashed #C0C0C0;
to fix the problem.July 28, 2010 at 2:37 pm #30659
I haven't found this CSS with
.thmbin any of NEWSCAST's CSS.
This problem is not a matter of plugins. What you mean, where it works, is the NEWSCAST-widget "news". It is the only part within the theme, where it works.
It is a matter of several images in 2 or more lines, one below each other, with each images having a link.
This causes the NEWSCAST hovering effect with a stronger box around the images.
This is the reason, why the images, coming in a new line below an image, are pulled to the right side.
Where had you the CSS above?July 28, 2010 at 4:41 pm #30660
The code is being added in the HTML (check the page source not the CSS file) by whichever plugin you are using, you'd have to edit the plugin to stop this being added.
The News Article widget is built in and designed to work as it does.July 28, 2010 at 5:48 pm #30661
ok, that's a problem of the hovering box style – that is in the theme, not the plugins, that causes this distraction.
Where is this hovering effect set in the theme, where (all) images get a stronger box when hovering over them?
This is an effect of NEWSFCAST, it is in the news-widget, too, that images get a stronger box by hovering them.
I think, I have to look at this place, because the CSS-styles of the plugin's images itself have no styles for "hover".
Thanks.July 28, 2010 at 6:03 pm #30662
To remove the hover function for the .thmb images, add this code to the end of style.css:
.thmb img a:hover { border: none !important; }
That'll stop the border being applied and causing the layout bug.July 28, 2010 at 7:16 pm #30663
Thanks, but I want all images, that are used in NEWSCAST to have NO hover effect (= a stronger box around it), because the
.thmbis just one of many plugins, that fail with this image-hover and each has its own styles. So I have to remove the general NEWSCAST image hover.July 29, 2010 at 9:04 am #30664
So, you need to remove the :hover references in the CSS for the borders. Open up css/style1.css (or style2.css or style.css depending on which style you chose), find and delete this code:
.box img, .entry img, .wp-caption{
border:1px solid #E1E1E1;
.box a:hover img, .entry a:hover img, .entry-previewimage:hover{
border:1px solid #999;
This will be slightly different if you used style2.css or style3.css.July 29, 2010 at 11:02 am #30665
Exactly that was the problem for all. Thanks a lot for your kind support and patience, James!July 29, 2010 at 3:01 pm #30666
No worries mate, let me know if you have any other questions.

Little Pine Creek
Little Pine Creek is a tributary of Pine Creek in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately 15.8 miles (25.4 km) long and flows through Pine Township and Cummings Township.[1]
Little Pine Creek begins at the confluence of Texas Creek and Blockhouse Creek in Pine Township. It flows roughly southwest, parallel to Pennsylvania Route 284 and receives the tributaries Bear Run, Bonell Run, and Lick Run. The creek then passes through English Mills. Further downstream, it receives the tributaries Coal Run, Callahans Run, and Otter Run. The creek then enters Cummings Township, where it passes through a dam known as the Little Pine Dam. On the southern side of the dam, it turns south and meanders several miles until it crosses Pennsylvania Route 44 and reaches its confluence with Pine Creek.[1]
Little Pine Creek joins Pine Creek 13.84 miles (22.27 km) upstream of its mouth.[2]
Geography and watershed[edit]
The watershed of Little Pine Creek has an area of 180 square miles (470 km2).[2]
Little Pine Creek is said to resemble a smaller version of Pine Creek. The velocity of its waters is also faster than those of Pine Creek. The creek's valley is narrow and resembles a canyon in its lower reaches. Groves of sycamore and summer camps are found along the valley.[3]
A dam that is 120 feet (37 m) high is on Little Pine Creek.[3]
It is possible to canoe on 15.6 miles (25.1 km) of Little Pine Creek during snowmelt or within four days of heavy rain. The difficulty rating of the creek is between A and 2-. The scenery along it is described as "good" by Edward Gertler in his book Keystone Canoeing.[3]
Little Pine Creek flows through Little Pine Creek State Park for part of its length.[3]

Department of Agricultural Economics, Sociology, and Education
Who are we?
The Department of Agricultural Economics, Sociology and Education (AESE) is the administrative home of the College of Agricultural Sciences disciplines in Agricultural and Resource Economics, Rural Sociology, and Agricultural and Extension Education. As a uniquely positioned department in the College of Agricultural Sciences, it builds on long traditions of high quality research, teaching and outreach programs in all three clusters. Our vision is to provide excellence and leadership within and across these disciplines.
The scholarship in the department is related to people, society, and economic systems grounded in theory and methods from the social, behavioral and economic sciences. Faculty and students develop and employ rigorous approaches to discover fundamental and applied principles that advance science in their core disciplines and improve the health, prosperity and welfare of people in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and beyond. The department offers a variety of undergraduate and graduate degrees, some unique to the three core disciplines while others are organized along overarching themes.
The department has identified three thematic areas to guide our scholarship. "Agricultural and food systems" focuses on the interconnections among producers, distributors, regulators and consumers in a variety of issues related to food choices, markets, pollution and health. "Environment and natural resources" addresses the human impact on fundamental natural assets, such as land, water and air, tackling the challenges that growing populations create for economic efficiency, social equity and environmental sustainability. "Human, community and regional development" focuses on community resilience through civic engagement, leadership and entrepreneurship to support sustainable communities and regional economies. These three themes utilize the respective strengths of each of the three core disciplines while providing an overall collaborative framework for research scholarship, teaching and outreach.

Terrelle Pryor continues to fan flames of NCAA wrongdoings
Terrelle Pryor gave the NCAA a little more ammunition on Tuesday when NBC4i.com reported that the star Ohio State quarterback has been driving the past two weeks with a suspended license.
Pryor had his license suspended after he failed to show proof of insurance, which makes sense considering Pryor has been seen in several different cars during his time at Ohio State, which has prompted an NCAA and Ohio State investigation regarding his relationships with car dealerships and other special benefits he might have received.
If none of those cars are his -- some have been seen with dealer plates and the Nissan 350z he rolled up to a team meeting in on Monday had temp tags -- why would he pay insurance on any of them?
Pryor is the registered owner of a 2006 Dodge Charger, but has been spotted in a half dozen different cars, including a GMC Denali and a Dodge Challenger.
The story said it was unclear whether Pryor had been given special privileges to drive since he's been seen motoring all around town.
Previously, Pryor had been cited by police for failing to stop at a stop sign, driving 94 mph in a 65 mph zone and two years ago, for going 99 mph in a 65 mph zone. These traffic violations occurred while Pryor was either driving a car from Aaron Kniffin, owner of Jeff Mauk of Jack Maxton Chevrolet, Inc., who is at the center of an NCAA investigation detailing more than 50 car deals for Ohio State players, or from Auto Direct Columbus, another dealership at the heart of the NCAA's investigation.

"That'll teach you to do a decent VDI..."
(VDI- vehicle daily inspection, check everything is working properly etc)
(I had put the comment in jest, promise)
To which he replied:
"Bleedin' newbies - you better keep that 'sense of humour' in check. Besides, there was only one torch, and no spare. Make ready have already put in an order for a new one."
To which I will reply:
"Am I bothered though? Really, look at my face? Am I bothered that I'm a newbie? Do I look bothered? Ask me if I'm bothered. Don't bother because I'm not even bothered though."
(If this means nothing to you please take a look at The Catherine Tate Show)
O how we do love being immature!
P.S. Before everyone starts jumping down my neck about punching above my weight etc, I would like to say that this post was all done in a sense of ironic good humour. I know how much people respect experience in the ambulance service, and I do too. I know in terms of everything such as exeperience I am but a tiny baby, and as such have the respect of one. Take care y'all.

The Samba suite is a set of programs which run under the FreeBSD
operating system. These programs deliver most of the important
functionality of a Microsoft Lan Manager server. That is, they support
remote access to FreeBSD filespace and FreeBSD printers from Lan Manager
compatible clients. In practical terms, this means that such clients can
connect to and use FreeBSD filespace as if it was a local disk drive, or
FreeBSD printers as if they were local printers.
Some of the most popular Lan Manager compatible clients include Lan
Manager itself, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2 and Windows NT.

Unfair. Unworkable. Unaffordable.
Those are the words Heritage President Jim DeMint used to describe Obamacare during a conversation with Andrew Wilkow on The Blaze this week.
"We have to stop it while there's still time," DeMint said. "If there has ever been something to take a political risk for, this is it."
DeMint appeared on Wilkow! to discuss why Heritage bought a billboard in Times Square with the message: "Warning: Obamacare may be hazardous to your health." He also discussed his letter to Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
DeMint said that there are only a couple more weeks left to defund Obamacare before implementation. The purpose of the billboard in Times Square, DeMint said, is to help Americans realize that Obamacare will cause harm.
"It has gotten attention all over the country and that was the whole intent," DeMint said.
DeMint said that he wants the nation to realize that the Obama administration is not telling the truth. He said that Obamacare will not add jobs to the economy, it won't save money, and it's not going to get people better health care.
"I'm going to fight as hard as I can that no one has to live under government health care in America," he said.
He continued: "People need to be reminded that we've got the best health care system in the world. We need to make it better not replace it the system they have in Britain."
