When I was about 10, I had gorilla legs, which embarrassed me horribly. Next to my fair-haired classmates who all had fine downy fuzz on their legs, I thought I stood out and that everyone thought I was as hideous as I considered myself to be.
That was also in the olden days when girls weren't allowed to wear pants to school, so I couldn't hide my legs beneath a pair of jeans.
My mom had already said I was too young to shave my legs, but what do moms know? So, I swiped my dad's razor, the one with the really, really sharp double-edged blades, and attacked my furry limbs.

The prevalence of guns on our society causes this. Make then harder to get and the gun crimes decline.
2- Its the bill of RIGHTS not responsibilities. Infringements. absolutely not.
3- yes
4- yes and not half az it
5- yes
6- is this serious?
7- allow/ encourage conceal carry of firearms in those areas. You are only restricting good guys from carrying there. bad guys will and already do break the law there anyways
probably one of the best examples of reasonable gun control anyone has put on here so far...attacking the source not the inanimate object
Personally I believe gun violence could be substantially reduced if we as a nation began to take a good long look at the real root of the problem: Our current drug laws. The "War on Drugs" will eventually bankrupt this country, morally and economically.
I'm not against decriminalizing/legalizing MJ but I'm not sure it will make much of a difference in violent crime. If I sling weed for a living and then my customers can start buying weed at walmart I'm not likely to change careers but rather change the products I provide.
"Make them (guns) harder to get and the gun crimes decline."
Specious statement. Burglary and black market importation will go up as criminal demand will be unaffected by the laws imposed. In fact, if 50% of legal gun owners destroyed their guns today those burglars seeking firearms may need to double the number of homes they hit to satiate their desire.

Problems in the admin panel after Mediatemple incident
Hello guys,
This two past days there has been an incident in Mediatemple (http://tinyurl.com/cwag9w) that has affected to all sites hosted in one of their clusters.
After two days where my sites were completely down, now they have come back and everything seems to work ok, except the admin panel.
I get to domain.com/wp-admin/ and everything is OK, but whenever I try to access to any section, moderation.php, edit.php… It shows me a blank page, no error, no nothing.
It happens with all my blogs (some in 2.7.1, some in 2.3.1), all of them show the index of the admin panel, but nothing else.
I'm totally lost, what can I do?
Is there anyone else who was affected by the MT incident and is experiencing the same problems as me with WP?
Thanks for your help guys!

In a world with digital downloads, YouTube videos, and the ability to record music using a laptop computer, many people may not realize that until the development of sound recording in the late 19th century, the only way for large audiences to hear music was to be present during a concert performance in a music hall, church, or private home.
As artistic director for the Connecticut Early Music Festival, UConn music historian Eric Rice is using his scholarly research as the basis to organize and produce a New London-based concert series that focuses on a repertoire of music written and performed before 1800, ranging from Gregorian chants to the music of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven.
This year's 30th Connecticut Early Music Festival includes baroque music based on Old Testament texts, chamber music played and collected by Thomas Jefferson, and works by South American composers as well as Beethoven and Mozart.
"[This year,] I decided to think about the relationship with New England and Western Europe," says Rice, associate professor of music history in the School of Fine Arts, who also oversees graduate programs in music. "It got me thinking about what kind of composers someone like Thomas Jefferson would listen to and what people in New England would hear."
An important aspect of performing early music is having an understanding of how advances in the construction of musical instruments, performance technique, and the size and positioning of the musicians in an ensemble have changed the way a composition might be heard today compared with its original articulation, Rice says.
"The way that you held a bow when you played a violin in 1700 is different than in 1850," he explains. "It's got a different bow and different strings; there is no chin rest on a baroque violin, and the strings are made of gut instead of steel."
Pianos have changed even more, he notes: "Probably no other instrument in western classical music has undergone more changes than the piano. In the 1820s, pianos still had a wooden frame. By the 1880s they had iron frames, meaning they had strings with greater tension to sustain the sound much louder."
Another important factor is the number of instruments that make up an early music ensemble or orchestra, compared with today's modern symphony orchestras, Rice says. In the 18th century, there were fewer musicians in an orchestra, which affect not only the volume of sound heard, but the performances of the musicians and vocalists.
"A singer has to work differently," he says. "They don't have to work as hard to sing over the orchestra. In my mind, it affects the subtlety of the performance. Others may disagree. The vocal techniques in use today are done in a way to get over the sound of the orchestra."
Rice learns such details about the writing and performance of early music through his scholarship of music history. This includes looking at archival records to discover how many people were paid to perform, reading diaries of the time, and finding critical reviews of concerts in old newspapers.
"[As artistic director for the Festival,] I view my role as part performer, part scholar, and part curator," Rice says. "My job is to assemble a group of concerts that have broad appeal and scan a wide range. I might be involved in one or two [as a performer], but the rest is contracting with other ensembles to come in with a well-rehearsed performance."
Rice says that his love of medieval and Renaissance music, especially liturgical music, drew him to become an advocate of early music. His scholarly research in this area focuses primarily on the music's relationship to architecture, politics, and secular music. His writings have appeared in the scholarly journals Current Musicology and the Journal of Musicological Research, among others. His most recent book is Music and Ritual at Charlemagne's Marienkirche in Aachen (Merseburger Verlag, 2009). He founded the Hartford-based Ensemble Origo in 2011 to continue performing music related to his research.
"We have kind of an interesting situation comparing music to other arts," Rice says. "When you walk into the Wadsworth Athenaeum or the Metropolitan Museum of Art, you'll see art from all periods and feel that these works belong in a museum. For a long time, that was not the case for music. People did not think baroque or classical music were accessible. It's always seemed curious to me that people think Cervantes or Shakespeare are great and are willing to spend time to read their works or to look at paintings, but not willing to listen to music from that period."
Suzanne Bona '85 (SFA), host of the nationally syndicated radio program Sunday Baroque, which focuses on baroque music from 1600 to 1750, says public appetite for early music in the northeastern part of the United States continues to grow.
"It's definitely a hotbed for baroque, because there are so many fine music schools and venues to hear the music," says Bona, who launched her program at WSHU-FM in Connecticut, a National Public Radio affiliate, 25 years ago.
Bona notes that she and Rice take a similar approach to presenting early music to their respective audiences.
"There's this wonderful historic component," she says. "I think we appreciate good stories and having that kind of context. When you put this music into historical context, tell the stories, and bring this rich narrative, it's fascinating. It's very much the way we listen to music today. We like the good story, to be able to sing along. It's wonderful to know my alma mater has someone of his caliber doing this."
Rice says his goal with the Connecticut Early Music Festival is to have audiences open their mind to the music.
"To me there's nothing more powerful than a piece of music," he says. "It's probably the best way to understand a culture. It's like instant access or a window to a culture of that particular time and place. It's one of the most powerful media from the past."
Upcoming concerts at the Connecticut Early Music Festival include the Spanish ensemble Le Tendre Amour performing "A Journey Through Ancient Scripture: Baroque Settings of the Old Testament in Northern Europe" on June 22 at Connecticut College's Harkness Chapel; and Mozart's opera "Die Entfuehrung Aus Dem Serail" on June 23 at the Cummings Arts Center, also at Connecticut College.

Blended learning – a combination of face-to-face and online learning that reduces "classroom contact hours" while incorporating "computer-mediated activities" to form an integrated instructional approach – is getting attention as a solution to a range of academic and financial challenges in education today, particularly in higher ed settings.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have come under increasing scrutiny as the modality has grown in popularity. A recent criticism of MOOCs is that their effectiveness is limited because their completion rates are so low.

Q: I get very hesitant to travel as I miss out on my salaah or make qazaa. Please help me by letting me know how many rakaats per salaat are required when travelling and from how many kilometers away from home does this apply, and more importantly how to determine qiblah at a hotel or service station.
A: 1) Traveling is no excuse to miss any salaah. It is for this reason that Shariah has made a concession in certain rules for a traveler; so that the traveler can fulfill his or her acts of worship. Don't be hesitant or apprehensive. The following rules will help.
2) All the 4-rakaat salah are halved for a traveller; so zuhar, asr, and eshaa will be read as 2 rakaats and not four. Fajr and Maghrib salah remain the same. The sunnat salaah are waived, so one does not need to read any sunnats unless one is settled in the hotel accommodation and has enough time to read sunnats.
3) One becomes a Musaafir (traveler in terms of Shariah) when one leaves home with the intention of traveling a journey of 77.7 kms or more and will stay in one town/city for 14 days or LESS. Then the halving of all 4 rakaat salaah will apply.
4) Determining of Qiblah: There are several ways of doing this. One is using a wrist watch with dials. Keep the watch in a way that 12 is towards sun. Then between the SHORT hand and the 12 will be your NORTH. Now you just need to know how many degrees north is the qiblah. For example, in P.E. our qiblah is 15 degrees North East. You can also simply check where sun rises and sets then that will give you east and west, and from there north and south. Normally in South Africa Qiblah is North East.
At night you can use the southern cross stars which will give you south; the opposite will be North, etc.
I trust the above gives an understandable explanation.

CORVALLIS, Ore. – A physician whose column was the inspiration for the hit television series "House," will speak on medical mysteries and the art of diagnosis in a lecture at Oregon State University on Tuesday, March 13, at LaSells Stewart Center.
Dr. Lisa Sanders is speaking as part of the OSU Program in Medical Humanities lecture series. The free public event includes a public reception at 6:30 p.m., followed by the talk at 7 p.m.
Sanders' monthly "Diagnosis" column in The New York Times Magazine was an inspiration for the Fox TV series "House," which has been on the air since 2004. She is also one of the show's technical advisers.
She will discuss some of the key messages from her new book, "Every Patient Tells a Story: Medical Mysteries and the Art of Diagnosis." An interview and excerpt from her book on National Public Radio can be found here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=111844063
Kirkus Reviews described Sanders book as: "A doctor's insightful reflections on the disconnect between how physicians should practice and how they actually practice."
Sanders is a board-certified internist on the faculty at the Yale University School of Medicine.
The lecture is sponsored by the Hundere Endowment for Religion and Culture, the OSU Program in Medical Humanities, Horning Program for Humanities Scholarship, Office of Vice Provost for Student Affairs, and University Honors College.

Former GalleyCat editor Ron Hogan hopes to raise $4,500 on Kickstarter to launch an app version of his author interview blog, "Beatrice." The funds will allow Hogan to make the app available free of charge.
Here's more about the project: "I'd been looking at the app format for a while, with an eye towards recording interviews on video, selecting highlights from each conversation to stream alongside feature-length transcripts, then bundling two, three, maybe four interviews into thematic "issues" of a Beatrice app which could be priced something like $1.99 or $2.99 apiece. It'd be cool to be able to give the interviews away for free, but I didn't see how I could afford to do it. Until now."
If the fundraiser is successful, Hogan will unveil the Beatrice app at BookExpo America in June. The premiere issue, titled "Life Stories," will feature interviews with three memoirists, including Half a Life author Darin Strauss, Revolution author Deb Olin Unferth and You Must Go and Win author Alina Simone.

Transplant surgeon bullish on Buffalo real estate
He's not exactly one of the household names in Western New York development, but a Kaleida Health transplant surgeon is carving a reputation for himself in real estate by placing big bets on the long-term future of his adopted hometown.
Since moving to Buffalo more than a decade ago, Dr. Fadi Dagher has invested more than $10 million to buy up and improve both residential and commercial properties in Buffalo, Amherst and Tonawanda. At first, it was pure investment, but now he increasingly wants to make his own mark.
He's part of the group that purchased the former Holiday Inn Resort & Conference Center on Grand Island, which has now been rebranded as Byblos Niagara Resort & Spa and is under the management of the Byblos Hospitality Group from Dubai. Most recently, he and another out-of-town partner from Dubai purchased two office buildings in the Waterfront Village in downtown Buffalo – one of which is now home to his real estate investment business, D&S Capital Real Estate.
He's also buying a run-down motel just north of the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, and plans to renovate or rebuild it into a modern and updated midscale hotel to serve the medical community. And he's eying several other deals to expand his local holdings, including condo or mixed-use conversions of some older industrial buildings. "We are currently looking at multiple other urban renewal opportunities in the city," he said.
Dagher is realistic about the challenges in Buffalo and the need to diversify its economic development opportunities and focus on "smart growth." He's focused on urban renewal, and advocates creation of "transit-oriented," bicycle-friendly and walkable centers, putting him in line with much of what local urban planners and community leaders now support for the city.
But he also sees new potential in many areas, and is eager to find others who agree with his vision or can be convinced by his passion, which he's not shy about sharing. In particular, he's hoping to bring more foreign investment into the city.
"You can not sell anything unless you believe in it," the 50-year-old doctor said. "I'm a big believer in Buffalo. Buffalo's on the right track. It's coming back for sure."
Dagher, of Clarence, is part of the newer crop of real estate investors and developers in Western New York who come with a fresh eye for building potential and an optimistic outlook that isn't jaded by decades of decline. Just as with many transplants to the region, they see the positives of the area – personally, socially, culturally and financially – and often can't understand why locals are so negative.
"Buffalo is our home now. We're pretty well settled here," said Dagher, who was born and raised in Lebanon but did his medical studies at New York University and never looked back to the Middle East. After two years practicing in Detroit, he came to Buffalo General Medical Center in 2003. "I'm here to stay, because I believe strongly about Buffalo. I'm optimistic that we will be doing very well in the long-term."
So while much of the real estate attention tends to be focused on the homegrown players – the big-name, family-owned firms like Benderson Development Co., Ciminelli Real Estate Corp., the Montantes' Uniland Development Co., and the Paladinos' Ellicott Development Co. – the newcomers are more bullish about local prospects. And like Dagher, they're putting their money into action.
"I think it is sustainable, as long as we know what direction we're going in and try to attract more business to the city," he said of the current development activity in Buffalo. But it has to move beyond just University at Buffalo and the medical campus. "Obviously we have to create more opportunities to keep it sustainable. (But) I'm optimistic that we will be doing very well in the long-term."
Dagher – whose wife, Christine, is a pediatrician, and who has three sons – began buying property locally soon after moving here 11 years ago, and has spent at least $8.3 million just on purchases. He owns and leases about 10 single-family homes or duplexes in North Buffalo, as well as a retail strip plaza in Tonawanda. And he paid $200,000 in October 2007 to buy some vacant land on Transit Road in Amherst, where he plans a 14-unit condo project.
In early February, he teamed up with Habib Al Salhi – the "S" in D&S Capital – to buy a pair of office buildings, called 50 and 60 Lakefront Boulevard, in Waterfront Village, paying $7.2 million for the 133,000-square-foot complex. The buildings are about 85 percent occupied, but Dagher took some space on the third floor of one of them for his new office, and he plans to convert part of the first floor into retail space, including for a new seafood restaurant and possibly an outdoor bar area.
The building already has a glass-enclosed patio with tables and chairs facing the Waterfront Village courtyard and the nearby marina, with views out to the lighthouse and Lake Erie beyond it. But the outer wall is comprised of several overhead glass doors that can be opened to the outside during the summer, making it attractive not only for the office tenants but also for those who live in the nearby residential complex.
"I'm trying to change the concept of this building," he said. "There definitely is a market for it, and the views are great. I'd like to see some more life here. I'm willing to collaborate with anyone who has vision."
There's about 20,000 square feet of commercial space still available for restaurants, retail and entrepreneurs, he said. He's also reached out to city officials to propose that the city build a parking ramp that would maximize the available space, so that he could develop some of the sprawling parking lot nearby for other projects that would "improve the access and walkability within the community" and "revitalize the waterfront area."
He expects to complete his purchase next week of the Buffalo Tourist Lodge at 1159 Main St., at Best Street. The current owners had planned to capitalize on the medical campus growth by renovating the aging facility into a Sleep Inn, but they were unable to get the financing together. Dagher and his partner now hope to follow through on that plan and are already engaged in a feasibility study to ensure that they are pursuing the best brand for the site.
"It's a great opportunity to engage the downtown community and address local needs," he said. "We still have room for growth."

Drubbing was final straw as Price resigns
11:59am Thursday 13th February 2014
11:59am Thursday 13th February 2014
MATTHEW Price said last week's 9-0 defeat at home to Causeway United was the final straw in his decision to stand down as manager of struggling Gornal Athletic.
The Peacocks are currently bottom of the Midland Alliance table with just three wins from 26 starts.
Price took over the reins from Brian Knight with Gornal already deep in relegation trouble and has struggled to make an impact. Price said: "I've been working seven days a week to try to improve things but after losing 9-0 at home I felt it was the best thing for myself and the club.
"We had a death in the family before the Causeway game and my wife was very upset but I went to football and then stood there on the touchline in the pouring rain thinking 'I really should be at home' and that sort of put it into perspective.
"A couple of times before I had thought about leaving but then I didn't think we were a million miles away and I'm not the sort of person who walks away quite easily.
"It's been frustrating because everyone at the club has been great and I desperately want to give them a successful team but I didn't feel I was getting anything back from the players for the time that was being put in. We gave them instructions of how to play against Causeway but they just went out and played how they wanted to.
"The whole time I've been at Gornal we've never really been able to put a full strength team out but it was always going to be tough having had two managers in the same season, and all the players who left in the summer made it even tougher with effectively building two new teams in one season."
Price will be staying around the club in the short term as they look to appoint a third manager of the season but already has an eye on the future.
"I had tough times at Bilston then went 19 months unbeaten at Sutton so I'm using that as motivation, and I'll be contacting a few clubs to see if they need a hand coaching."
Experienced managers interested in the position can contact chairman Kevin Williams at firstname.lastname@example.com

The Top 5 Most Awesome X-Men Superpowers
We've always been slightly partial to the X-Men, especially since Marvel rebooted the comic series with an all-female cast. But our love for the mutant gang has never been stronger with the release of X-Men: Days of Future Past, which hits theaters May 23. In this episode of The Sync Up, we fangirl over the five most awesome X-Men superpowers . . . of all time.

"The organisation will embark on a programme of rolling protest action and high-level engagement to ensure the bill is amended to protect media freedom," said Sanef chairperson Ferial Haffajee yesterday. The bill has been condemned by virtually every newspaper in South Africa because it brings the press within the ambit of a censorship law and allows for "prior restraint". (Via IOL South Africa)

A Bacchanal of Music, Sun and Style
GP Short: Coachella
Goddammit, you missed Coachella again. You had a shot at two full weekends of sun (and a few random dust storms). You could've napped in the shade beneath a monstrous astronaut and a robot. You might have boozed heavily, ogled preppily-dressed twenty-somethings — the hipster-hippies — and the folks wearing a mix of dirty and scanty that usually pertains only to the homeless set. Hasselhoff and Aaron Paul and that dude from CSI were there, walking around like they were normal people. And the music, it was like a buffet: just stand up and hoof it toward whatever strain sounded most delectable. Lots of iPhones. A skyline to die for. Surprise acts like Diddy and Busta that made the jumping crowd kick off from the ground like hyper-caffeinated kangaroos. You could have been one of 80,000 there. But to be fair, you missed some disastrous traffic.
Bradley Hasemeyer, recognizing your #fomo, made the quick 130-mile journey from LA to Coachella Valley to capture the iconic music festival on nothing but an iPhone 5 and the iPro lens kit.

Passavant Area Hospital is accepting applications for a free, four-day summer camp for high school students who are interested in a nursing career.
The summer camp, called Teens Experiencing Nursing (TEN), will be held June 27-30 at the nonprofit community hospital.
The program begins with an orientation at the Memorial Center for Learning and Innovation, 228 W. Miller St., Springfield, where students will participate in skills training and simulations in the state-of-the-art learning facility.
They will spend the following three days in Jacksonville, where they will have the opportunity to job shadow and interact with nursing staff on several nursing units throughout Passavant Area Hospital. Campers will also spend a day at MacMurray College in Jacksonville to learn about pursuing a professional nursing degree.
"TEN Camp participants receive a hands-on opportunity to experience nursing education and nursing practice," said Leanna Wynn, affiliate vice president of nursing and quality and chief nursing officer of Passavant Area Hospital. "We're looking for the best and brightest high school students interested in pursuing a nursing career."
TEN Camp will be limited to 15 students. Campers are expected to attend all four days of the camp and may not leave the camp for any reason other than a family emergency.
Students will need to complete an application, which includes a school counselor reference, written permission from parents or guardians and a multiple-essay questionnaire explaining why they want to become a nurse. Applications are available online at MemorialCareers.com.
The deadline to apply is March 24. For more information, call 217-788-6254 or send an email to email@example.com.

MTV Does Another NYE in NYC
MTV rang in the New Year with another star-studded party in their studio overlooking Times Square. Not only did the revelers have a prime spot to view the ball drop, but they were treated to performances by Kid Rock (with Rev Run), Mary J. Blige, Good Charlotte and more. I guess that means Joel didn't get to start the new year with a kiss from Nicole, but I'm sure he'll make up for it back in LA. Cutie VJ Damien Fahey looked dapper in his three piece suit for the big night. The hostess of the party was Tila Tequila, who took the opportunity to announce that her first shot at love didn't work out and she's doing another season of her reality dating show. Who's excited?

OS = Windows XP Home Edition, Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp.080413-2111: Service Pack 3).
Upgraded my SpyBot 1.4 to the newer Spybot 1.5.2 today. When I try to Immunize, the system hangs forever with the only exit being CTRL-ALT-DEL and a majority of my files remaining unprotected (see attached image file). Never had such an issue with version 1.4 of SpyBot, so I'm at a loss here.
I'm also running Zone Alarm and Webroot's Spy Sweeper. While I've been able to search the forum and find out that Zone Alarm's "Lock Hosts file" should NOT be checked (mine was not), I've yet to locate what to disarm in Spy Sweeper.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TAKE THAT, Retina! Fovea THIS!
Hey, you wanna see the inside of my eye? No, really. The inside of my eye.
Check it out:
That's the freaking inside of my right eye – you're looking at my right retina, optic nerve, macula, and fovea – and a ton of vessels in the background and foreground. Obviously by now you've determined that the tree looking things in the bottom of the picture are my eyelashes. Check it out in black and white – around the macula you can see a weird pattern or reflection of some kind – it looks like a lizard eye staring at you!
Oh, is that just me? [awkward]
Do you know what the heck I'm talking about? Fovea, macula, retina, etcetera?
If you know all of this already, I am glad to tell you again!
The retina is easy – it's the large part in the picture. The retina is the back of your eyeball, which contains the light and color receptors (rods and cones, respectively) that the brain uses to tell what's going on visually. It has blood vessels and stuff like that wound into it so that it can get food and oxygen to the parts of the eye that need it.
The macula and fovea are an interesting part of your eye. When you hear of "macular degeneration" and people having problems with their visual focus, this is often something to be considered. Check out the left eye – the macula is the spot in the picture below that looks like a violin body, or the mark on the thorax of a Black Widow spider, kind-of. Inside of that is the fovea, which is the central point of focus in our vision:
and even better in black and white:
That thing – the fovea – it's a dip in the retina filled with rod and cone cells, and the center of it is the concentration of human visual acuity, or focus. Around half of the information the optic nerve carries to the brain is from the fovea. The detailed vision spot – when it is damaged, focus goes away. The bright spot is the optic nerve going to the brain, sending messages of everything you see.
The macula is the kind-of yellow-y area surrounding the fovea and containing the fovea – the fovea is essentially the center of the macula.
I always equated the process of sending the images from the eye to the brain like sending a RAW file.
Check out a color shot of my left eye:
followed by the black and white:
Here's another term – ischemia. This is a reason to lose weight and be healthy for anyone. An ischemia is a complete lack of blood flow to a portion of the body, and that starved portion dies. Here's a little game I'll play – somewhere in one of my eyes I have an ischemia from an old high blood pressure episode. Think you know what it looks like? The first person between now and December 31 who correctly locates the ischemia, I'll send you a $10 Amazon gift certificate. You have to highlight the ischemia in one of the pictures in this post and email me your guess.
The human body is full of wonder, isn't it?

It is still fun as a long-time Warrior player, coach and fan to be able to go into Safeway and find Hall of Famer Ston Yackamouih still serving the public in the Safeway pharmacy.
Ston was an outstanding three-sport athlete graduating with the class of 1957. Now this Ston was the middle of three generations of Stons to play for the Warriors.
The first Ston was a runing back on the 1924 Warrior football team and Ston No. 2's father. I remember his son Ston No. 2 when my dad, Shirley Trone, was his coach on the basketball court at Crescent Elk.
He was recognized as a great shooter and an outstanding ball handler. While Ston was never big and never
really fast he was always able to get the most from his athletic talents. His high school coach Tex Gatlin referred to Ston as one of the smartest athletes he ever coached.
After graduation Ston went on to the University of California Berkeley, where he studied to be a pharmacist. After graduation Ston returned to Crescent City, where he and a partner, Tom Nichol, operated the
Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy for many years.
When they closed, Ston took his professional talents to Safeway, where you can still see him a couple of days a week preparing prescriptions and giving professional information to customers. He looks like he can go on forever.
Ston and his wife, Jerry, had a son, Ston, that became the third generation of excellent Warrior athletes. I had the privilege of being one of the third Ston's coaches. He was an outstanding wide receiver and a real class act as an individual.
Unfortunately he was killed in a tragic accident several years ago. I consider myself very lucky to have personally known all three generations. They spark a lot of wonderful memories.
Dick Trone writes on his reflections and the history of Del Norte High sports.

The 2013 Pack is a worthy effort, but the 'Galaxy' still reigns supreme as it introduced a whole new set of concepts for basketball shoes in terms of graphic options, colorways, and the sheer abuse of details. In China, during the "Battle of Guangzhou" event, Nike Basketball released a super-limited edition Nike 2012 All-Star Galaxy Pack that included all three shoes, an incredible three-tiered box, and a gold hangtag that individually numbered all fifteen units.

Green Day's hit Broadway musical American Idiot could be turned into a movie, it's been reported.
Playtone, the US production company owned by Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, are understood to be in talks to create a big screen adaptation of the production.
American Idiot uses Green Day's music to tell the story of the band's journey from their small town upbringing to stadium rock stars.
It has enjoyed huge success at Broadway's Roda Theatre, where it is due to run until April 20.
Hanks and Goetzman are keen to obtain the rights to the project before pitching it to a movie studio, according to Deadline.
Playtone were behind the film adaptation of ABBA musical Mamma Mia! in 2008.
The movie grossed $610 million worldwide, despite receiving lukewarm reviews from critics.

by Susan Spears, Office Manager for Don Ingwerson
Many of you regularly comment on the blog and routinely see the changes that take place as the blog evolves. But many are new to the blog or infrequent visitors, so I wanted to point out some of the ways the blog has developed over time with work from Leona Laurie (our social media expert) and me:
1. To keep you – the reader – interested in the blog, and to help with navigation, there is a moving slider (or set of photos) that was developed by Leona. If you click on the slider photo, you will go directly to the article linked with that photo.
2. We recently put in at the bottom of each blog article a Facebook share button (the little thumbs up button with the word "Like"). This button allows you to share the article in your Facebook page with an easy click of the button!
3. Also at the bottom of each blog article you will find a "Print Friendly" button – for easy sharing of articles with those who aren't using a computer or would like a hard copy of the article.
4. On the right side of the blog page is Don's Twitter conversation. His Twitter handle (or ID) is SCalCS. You can directly follow him to see all of his tweets if you have your own Twitter account, or you can check on this Twitter conversation, which gives the latest tweets that he has made. Don has found Twitter to be a great way to develop relationships with reporters, share pertinent articles and blogs, and get new ideas for upcoming blogs!
5. As the Committee is focusing on health in blogging, the blog content has changed. Don writes a blog on Monday that has a health focus, and this blog has usually already been published in a number of other venues before being published here. On Tuesday an assistant committee, or representative from a Christian Science church in Southern California, writes a blog on how they have used Christian Science to promote health. On Wednesday an article from another state Committee on Publication is posted – these also have a health focus. On Thursday most often we post an update on legislative or media activity.
If you need help navigating the website, locating the newsletter (the WatchWords), commenting on the blog, and/or subscribing or sharing the blog, please feel free to call or email the office and ask for me! I look forward to hearing from you.

Halloween is a holiday that revolves around creativity, from the carved pumpkins to costume of choice, so why run to the store and buy a pre-made Halloween costume? If you want to stand out during that Halloween party or have your kids say "trick or treat" in the most unique costume, below are some simple unique costume ideas to get those Halloween compliments without paying a fortune:
The mecca for any creative DIY Halloween costume is a second-hand shop. The Goodwill never fails when it comes to finding costume inspiration. Keep that in mind for any costume.
First, start off with a key piece that your costume is to revolve around. For example, if you want to pull off your best Cruella De Ville costume, find the essential fur coat and the rest will be easy to pull off. Add a silky red dress, black/white wig and gloves that go to your elbow and there you have it. Chances are this route will be much cheaper than buying the $100 plus costume package at a costume store.
If you really want to get your creative juices flowing, look for everyday household items you can easily turn into an envy-worthy costume. It can be as simple as a cardboard box. Cut out holes for your arms, write soap across the front and tape some balloons to the box and there you have it. A sudsy costume!
I'm sure most of us have sneakers around the house. Simply adorn your sneaker to the top of your head, paint your face pink and wear an outfit of your choice to match the same pink. Then magically you are a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of a sneaker.
Another great source to make any Halloween costume stand apart from the rest is a trip to any local hobby store (Hobby Lobby, Michael's, JoAnn Fabrics, etc.). There's nothing a little tulle and fabric can't do.
Have a sweet tooth costume in mind? Simply find a pink t-shirt and pillow fill. Spray the pillow fill with a pink paint spray. Once dry, use adhesive spray to attach to the t-shirt. Find a poster board to use as a cone for your head and glue some more pink pillow fill to the bottom, along with elastic to keep it in place. Add some pink tights and you have the sweetest cotton candy costume there is.
With these ideas you will not only save money, you better prepare yourself for compliments on how creative your disguise is this Halloween.
To make this Halloween even better I have joined a group of other bloggers to give away over $600 in prizes to three lucky readers. Just complete the requirements below to get yourself entered to win.

NEW YORK – So here I am at the weather-threatened Super Bowl in New York and I'm about to blog on the Super Bowl-threatening weather in Atlanta. What's wrong with this picture?
This is what I know about the mess in Atlanta and what it means for the future.
1) Our city annually seems less prepared for inclement weather than any I know of.
2) Atlanta will get another Super Bowl, anyway.
I know sports fans and civic leaders who care about such things are panicking that the snow and ice of the past day in Atlanta, and the slow response in the cleanup, will significantly hurt the chances of hosting a third Super Bowl. After all, the city last hosted the game in 2000, and the lead-up to the game was marred by two ice storms: the week before the game and the weekend of.
But it's a misconception that the NFL rewards Super Bowls based only on weather. I'll have more on this in an essay Sunday as part of a Page 2 package of stories. But in short, the NFL rewards Super Bowls to every city with a new stadium.
Atlanta will get another Super Bowl when Falcons owner Arthur Blank gets his new palace built. It's all but guaranteed. NFL owners – read: the commissioner's office – have allowed Detroit, Indianapolis and Dallas to host the game in recent years because of new stadium construction.
The Super Bowl this week is in the New Jersey. The area was paralyzed by a storm last week that dropped 14 inches of snow – not an uncommon occurrence this time of year.
In 2010, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said, "I think a new stadium with this great community would be beneficial to bringing another Super Bowl to this community."
However . . .
Given recent events, it's safe to conclude that the Falcons, city officials and the bid committee members will need to come up with an extremely detailed plan for the league about how it would respond to bad weather the week of their centerpiece event.
That plan can't read like this: "Two extra bags of salt and a snow plow on loan from Macon."
Phone the Green Bay Packers and offer hotel rooms, steaks and aquarium tickets for their frozen world experts.
According to my highly placed snow-and-ice source, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal, they're now using cheese brine to melt ice. Turns out they have an excess of cheese brine in Wisconsin. Can we get some of that?
Have a plan, Atlanta. But don't worry. The Super Bowl will be back.

Jan. 18, 1949. T. (3. MAIN HYDROCARBON SYNTHESIS Filed Nov. 8, 1946 RECOVER) Patented Jan. 18, 1949 HYDROCARBON syn'rnnsrs Thomas C. Main, San Antonio, Tex., assignor to Standard Oil Development Company, a corporation of Delaware Application November 8, 1946, Serial No. 708,626
My invention relates to improvements in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons and, more particularly, it relates to improvements in the fluid catalyst type process in which thecatalyst in powdered form is suspended in the gasiform material in the reaction zone to form a dense, turbulent suspension.
The synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons using carbon monoxide and hydrogen as the feed gas is a matter of record and commercial practice, at least in countries foreign to the United States. In the earlier work in this field, the catalyst employed generally was cobalt carried on a suitable support such as kieselguhr and promoted by material such as thoria. The reaction zone contained'the catalyst in the form-of pills, pellets, granules, and other shaped bodies disposed in one or more stationary or fixed beds in the reaction zone and the reactants were forced through the bed or beds of catalyst at elevated temperatures. More recently, a new technique has been developed for carrying out vapor phase reactions in the presence of a solid in which the latter is in the form of finely ground powder and further in which there is formed in the reaction zone a dense, turbulent, ebullient suspension, the powdered solids in the gasi-form material passing upwardly in the reaction zone,- This has come to be known as the fluid solids technique and in the case of the catalyst, of course, fluid catalyst technique. It has been found that when an attemptwas made to fluidize powdered iron in the gasiform reactants in the reaction zone producing hydrocarbons from a feed containing hydrogen and C0, difflculty has been encountered in maintaining the catalyst in the fluidized state. The point is that in the hydrocarbon synthesis reaction employing iron catalyst, carbon and carbonaceous deposits form on the catalyst during the course of the reaction as time goes on, with the result that the catalyst not only loses activity but undergoes physical disintegration and it becomes difllcult, if not impossible, to retain the catalyst in the reaction zone in the form of a dense, tur bulent fluidized mass for the disintegrated catalyst passes overhead with the products, all of which will be more fully explained hereinafter.
At the outset, however, it is pointed out that I improvedthe fluidizing characteristics of the powdered iron used in the fluid catalyst process 8 Claims. (Cl. 260-4495) 2 for synthesizing hydrocarbons by mixing with the iron a quantity of a coarser or larger particle size powdered inert material such as silica gel.
In the accompanying drawing, I have shown diagrammatically the essential elements of an apparatus in which a preferred modification of my invention may be performed.
Referring to the drawing, I represents a case or reactor in the form of a cylinder having a convex dome and a conical base and containing a fluidized bed of powdered ironcatalyst C. The catalyst is preferably ground to a size of from 0 to 80 microns, with the major portion of the same having a particle size of from 40 to microns. In operating my process, a mixt re of gases containing hydrogen and carbon mo mrxide enters the system through line 3, is thenpumped by a pump 4 into the conical base'of reactor I, wherein-it then passes upwardly through a grid or a screen G into contact with the fluidized bed of catalyst previously referred to. The catalyst is maintained in the fluidized state by adjusting the inlet veloc-' ity of the entering gases within the range of from 0.1 to 1 feet per second. By inlet velocity of the gas I mean the velocity of the same at the point just below the grid G. The reactants pass through the bed of fluidized catalyst at a temperature of around 600 to 750 F., while a pressure of from 300 to 800 pounds per square inch gauge is maintained in the reaction zone, and the desired conversion takes .place. It will be noted in the drawing that the fluidized bed of catalyst has an upper level at the point L. As the gases emerge from the fluidized bed of catalyst, they pass into the space between L and the top of the reactor. The catalyst separates from the'gas in this space, commonly referred to as a-disengaging space. It may have a depth of about 10 feet where the distance from G to L is of the order of 15 to 20 feet. As indicated, therefore, separation between catalyst and product is effected within the reaction zone and the gases and vapors exit through overhead transfer line l0. However, in order to separate entrained fines, the gases and vapors are forced through a plurality of solids-gas separating devices M disposed in the upper portion of the reactor as shown. These separating devices are usually centrifugal separators commonly called c yclones" and the separated catalyst returns by gravity through a series of dip pipes D to the fluidized bed. Referring again to the material in line H), the same may still contain at least traces of very fine entrained catalyst, and, consequently, the gases and vapors are forced through one or more separating devices or dust collectors l2 to remove the last traces of the catalyst. The gases and vapors finally freed from catalyst are then passed into a condensing, fractionating, and purifying apparatus M. which I have merely shown diagrammatically since the methods of recovering the desired products are well known to those familiar with the art, and need not be described by me in detail therein. or course, the skilled petroleum engineer will understand that unconverted material may be recycled or returned to the reaction zone for further treatment and those familiar with the fluid catalyst technique will appreciate that some gaseous material must be returned to the reaction zone to aid in the fluidization of the iron catalyst therein. to increase the yield of desired products and otherwise to improve the process.
The main purpose of my invention is accomplished, as indicated previously, by mixing an inert solid with the iron in the reaction zone for the purpose of insuring good fluidization of the iron catalyst. It is known that particles of highly active and selective hydrocarbon synthesis iron catalysts break down very rapidly under synthesis conditions to a very much smaller particle diameter. The mass of iron powder which once possessed good fiuidization properties becomes difificultly fluidizable and the hydrocarbon synthesis operation must be discontinued. The breakdown of iron particles is probably caused by chemical reaction of iron with carbon monoxide feed. The fiufiy nature of this mass makes fiuidization difficult if not impossible. It is herein disclosed that a diluent solid such as silica gel, dolomite, sharp sand, or alumina which is catalytically inert in the synthesis reaction be ground to a relatively coarse particle size range. as compared to the finely divided iron powder, and added to the iron mass to give a mixture having a particle size range which falls within the class of easily fiuidizable powders. The percentage of inert solid in the final mixture, as well as the average particle size, will, of course, depend upon the average particle size of the iron carbon powder mixture. For example, the iron carbon powder withdrawn from a synthesis run which was terminated because of iron particle break down had the final particle distribution shown below. It will be seen in the example given that to 500 pounds of finely divided iron a material balance on the to 20 micron fraction indicates that 725 pounds of silica gel must be added which has the particle size distribution listed to give a final mixture possessing approximately 25 per cent 0 to 20 micron particles. Twenty-five per cent 0 to 20 and 25 per cent 80+ fractions permit excellent fluidization.
Silica gel: Diluent to be added to iron powder.
Weight: X lbs. to give a final iron-silica gel mixture having 25% 0-20 micron particles.

Due to the highly active and selective nature of the iron catalyst, diluent addition does not retard the catalyst activity in converting carbon monoxide and hydrogen to hydrocarbons, and in this connection I set forth below a pilot plant run in which the catalyst was mixed with silica gel in such proportions as to give a well fluidized mixture, as indicated by the high heat transfer coefficient, and it will also be noted that the catalyst was active in spite of the silica gel dilution as evidenced by the good yield of 04+ hydrocarbons and the alcohol yield.

It is desirable to select the inert as a material of less particle density than the finely divided iron-carbon mixture. A good distribution of the iron throughout the bed is insured by grinding the lighter inert to a relatively narrow cut coarse fraction since from the density standpoint the iron tends to concentrate in the lower region of the dense phase, the lighter inert powder in the upper regions; but from the standpoint of particle size, the relatively fine iron tends to move upwardly through the dense phase to the interface and the coarse inert tends to move toward the bottom. These opposing eifects caused by elutriation tend to counterbalance one another, and good internal mixing of an easily fluidizable uniform powder mass results. It cannot be emphasized too strongly that poor fluidization means several disadvantages in the hydrocarbon synthesis process wherein a fluidized bed of solids is used. The catalyst if not well fluidized tends to cause "hot spots in the bed and these hot spots may cause cracking of formed hydrocarbons with the resultant production of carbonaceous deposits on the catalyst and the production of undesired normally gaseous hydrocarbons; such as methane, thus reducing the yield of normally gaseous hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons which, of course, are the desired products. Another difficulty is that when the catalyst becomes contaminated with carbonaceous deposits, it tends to disintegrate physically to form large quantities of fines, that is to say. particles having a size of less than 20 microns. In the operation of the fluidized mass of catalyst it is desired to maintain the catalyst in the form of a bed which remains within the reactor and does not tend to pass out of the reactor with the reaction vapors. In other words, the desideratum in the process of the type herein described is to effect a separation between gases or vapors and the catalyst within the reactor itself. The result is the formation of a lower dense phase suspension, and an upper dilute phase suspension, both types of suspension existing within the reactor, the upper dilute phase functioning as a catalyst disengaging zone. Usually in the top of the reactor there are disposed solids-gas separating devices which effect a separation of the entrained fines, as far as may be, and a return of these separated fines by gravity to the dense phase. The final result, therefore,
' of the operation when operating at its best is that the gasiform reactants passing from the reaction zone contain only minor traces of entrained catalyst fines. However, if the iron catalyst contains a high percentage of 0 to 20 particle size fines, then a good separation of catalyst from vapors will not occur in the upper portion of the reactor and, consequently, large quantities of these fines will pass overhead and will present a diflicult problem of separating catalyst in equipment outside of the reactor. According to the present invention, however, by adding a diluent, a greater degree of catalyst fines can be tolerated in the reactor without danger of having them pass out of the reactor with the gaseous products.
Numerous modifications of my invention may be made by those who are familiar with this art without departing from the spirit thereof.
What I claim is:
1. The method of synthesizing hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons from a gaseous feed containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen which comprises forcing a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen into a reaction zone containing a bed of fluidized iron catalyst, maintaining elevated temperatures and pressures in the reaction zone, insuring good fluidization of the iron powder therein by mixing with the iron 2. quantity of a powdered inert material having a particle size larger than that of the powdered iron but of lower density than said iron whereby classification of the two materials is avoided and a homogeneous mixture thereof is obtained in said reaction zone and withdrawing from the reaction zone a product containing a normal liquid hydrocarbon.
2. The method set forth in claim 1 in which 25 per cent by weight of 0 to microns particle size and weight per cent 80+ microns particle size silica gel is added to the iron catalyst in the reaction zone.

text: driftwoodsound 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Hi All, I've got 3 x DSi 4000 amps (plus a Crown USBX) and I'd like to set up a simple panel in Motion Control to enable control of the volume and mute of all three amps at once (using a single fader to affect all channels) . It seems I can't assign the Output Attenuator parameter for any of the amps. The 'Add' button is grayed out, and if I try to drag and drop I get the circle-with-line-through-it icon. Is there no way to assign this parameter to a control in a MotionControl panel? Am I missing something? It seems odd if this is the case, because the Crown iPod app allows you to control the volume of the amp outputs. Why would this parameter be unavailable for MotionControl? I've been poking and prodding around Audio Architect for days now, reading manuals and trying any combination I can think of. Any help would be very greatly appreciated. Even a work-around for controlling the amps DWS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amanda Bynes Fire Surprised Elderly Homeowner, Resident Hopes Actress 'Gets Help'
The woman whose drive was set on fire by Amanda Bynes hopes the troubled actress gets help after months of continually rash behavior.
The Thousand Oaks, Calif., resident Bonnie Braaten, 73, told police she did not know "anyone who would be angry with me enough to set a fire in my driveway," according to People magazine.
Braaten described the moment police and fire trucks arrived as "scary." She added that: "I looked out the window and I thought, 'I [have] my phone, so I'll call 911,' but 911 was in my driveway."
Braaten told reporters that the whole situation was "crazy," insisting that "I hope she gets some help."
Local reports also revealed that after the fire-starting incident Bynes rushed into a liquor store and passed an "employee only" area. When an employee went to investigate he allegedly found Bynes rinsing a dog off in a sink, stating that there was a strong odor of gasoline present. When confronted by an employee, Bynes left the store, according to reports from Radar Online.
Upon police arrival Bynes, who allegedly burned parts of her clothing, was reportedly questioned about the incident and subsequently placed on a 5150 hold due to her responses. She was then allegedly transported to a psychiatric hospital for evaluation and legally she can be held for up to 72 hours.
The parents of Bynes, Lynn and Rick, are reportedly concerned for their daughter's mental well-being but feeling helpless because she is an adult.
"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at Amanda and surmise that she is having some sort of crisis. Her makeover is just one example of her troubling behavior. Her parents just wish the media would leave Amanda alone, because it's only making the situation worse. Amanda is lost and she refuses to get help," a source reportedly told RadarOnline.com.
