Rightmove reports further rise in asking prices
Permalink: Rightmove reports further rise in asking prices
by Kay Mitchell
Property website Rightmove believes the housing market has already bottomed out after a further gain in asking prices in June.
According to the organisation, the average asking price in England and Wales rose by 0.6% to £227,864 – up from £226,436 in June – the fifth rise in as many months.
Miles Shipside, commercial director of Rightmove, comments: "There were some fire-sale prices last winter, when a few brave buyers correctly called the bottom of the market. In most parts of the country, prices have consistently improved during spring."
Rightmove believes the market is improving as falling house prices is enticing many prospective buyers to the market.
Meanwhile, the group has reported a 20% increase in the number of houses for sale on its website and according to Mr Shipside, "The increased confidence and activity is tempting more sellers to test the market".
In related news today, the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML) have announced a surge in mortgage lending for the month of June.
Lending reached £12.3 billion for the month, up from £10.5 billion the previous month, according to the CML.
However, the organisation points out that the June rise is attributed to a seasonal increase and the gross lending figure is still 48% lower when compared with June last year.

City Employee Comes to the Aid of Fallen Elderly Woman
Albuquerque- Today Mayor Richard J. Berry honored an employee who came to the aid of an elderly woman who had slipped and fallen in her driveway. Through his immediate action and willingness to help, this Albuquerque senior citizen is alive and well today. This week's Employee of the Week is Solid Waste Employee Adrian Olvera.
On the morning of Tuesday, January 13th, Albuquerque Solid Waste driver Adrian Olvera was on his usual residential recycling pickup route. Due to cold weather conditions the night before, the roads and sidewalks were icy. While Adrian was servicing his typical route, he noticed an elderly woman lying on her driveway. It was apparent that the woman had slipped on the slick sidewalk and had no way to get up on her own. Adrian immediately stopped his truck to provide assistance. As he approached her, he noticed she was in and out of consciousness and freezing. Instantly, Adrian called over to a neighbor to help him, and together they moved the woman into her home. As the men carried the woman into her home, Adrian realized her condition was serious, so he called the paramedics. As they waited, he found some sheets to cover her and keep her warm. The woman was fading in and out of consciousness, so Adrian knew he had to keep her awake by asking her questions. Adrian found out the woman's name is Mrs. Cook and asked her to talk to him about her family. By doing so, he discovered her son's name and found his number in Mrs. Cook's phone. He immediately called her son to let him know what had happened, and let him know that the paramedics were on their way. Once paramedics had arrived, Adrian left to go finish his pick-ups in the neighborhood. After he finished his shift, he returned to check on the welfare of Mrs. Cook. Mrs. Cook's son, Paul, was there when Adrian made his quick welfare check on his mom, but only had time for a quick handshake before Adrian had to return to work.
Mrs. Cook is still recovering from her injuries. Her son, Paul Cook, firmly believes that Adrian saved her life. Had Adrian not stopped, Mrs. Cook's situation could have turned out much worse. If not for Paul Cook nominating Adrian for KOB's Pay it Forward campaign, the City would not have heard about Adrian's extraordinary actions that day. This is a perfect example of helping your neighbor in times of need, and because of exceptional acts of kindness such as this, our City is a great place to live.

The protein encoded by CFHR3 is a secreted protein, which belongs to the complement factor H-related protein family. Additionally we are shipping CFHR3 Antibodies (11) and and many more products for this protein.
Showing 1 out of 7 products:
These data provide evidence that FHR3, which is absent in patients with the autoimmune form of hemolytic uremic syndrome, is involved in B cell regulation
We describe a novel CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits)/CFHR3 hybrid gene secondary to a de novo 6.3-kb deletion that arose through microhomology-mediated end joining rather than nonallelic homologous recombination. We confirmed a transcript from this hybrid gene and showed a secreted protein product that lacks the recognition domain of factor H (show CFH ELISA Kits) and exhibits impaired cell surface complement regulation
Next-generation sequencing of the CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits) region identified putatively functional variants (missense, splice site and indel) on the four common haplotypes. We found no expression of any of the five CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits)-related genes in the retina or RPE/Choroid/Sclera, in contrast to the liver, which is the main source of the circulating proteins.[CFHR3]
Studies indicate that complement factor H (show CFH ELISA Kits)-related proteins (FHR1 (show CFHR1 ELISA Kits)-5) may enhance complement activation, with important implications for the role of these proteins in disease.
These results suggest that the combination of quantitative and qualitative variations in the complement proteins encoded by CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits), CFHR3 and CFHR1 (show CFHR1 ELISA Kits) genes is key for the association of these haplotypes with disease.
Genetic variants in CFH, CFHR3, and CFHR1 affect complement activation and thereby predispose patients to develop IgA nephropathy.
Prompt use of immunosuppressive agents and plasma exchanges are useful for improving outcomes in pediatric patients with anti-complement factor H (show CFH ELISA Kits)-associated HUS (show CFH ELISA Kits).
Atypical haemolytic-uraemic syndrome due to heterozygous mutations of CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits)/CFHR1 (show CFHR1 ELISA Kits)-3 and complement factor H (show CFH ELISA Kits) 479.
we have assessed the relationship between GA and previously identified AMD (show AMD1 ELISA Kits)-associated variants of genes (CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits), CFB (show CFB ELISA Kits), C3, FHR1 (show CFHR1 ELISA Kits), FRH3, and ARMS2 (show ARMS2 ELISA Kits)/HTRA (show HTRA1 ELISA Kits)).
genetic variations in CFH (show CFH ELISA Kits) and its related genes may contribute to hypertension risk in Chinese Hans
The protein encoded by this gene is a secreted protein, which belongs to the complement factor H-related protein family. It binds to heparin, and may be involved in complement regulation. Mutations in this gene are associated with decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration, and with an increased risk of atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Sam Raimi and Warner Bros Starting an 'Earth Defense Force'
by Ethan Anderton
September 29, 2010
Source: Vulture
With projects like a futuristic take on Wyatt Earp and an adaptation of the video game World of Warcraft in his future, director Sam Raimi is quite the busy man. That's not stopping him from adding to his workload though as Vulture reports Raimi is working with District 9 producer Bill Block and Warner Bros. to set up a sci-fi flick called EDF (or Earth Defense Force). The report says: "Mix Top Gun with Independence Day and add a pinch of The Last Starfighter, and you'll get EDF." Andrew Marlowe, the writer of Air Force One and executive producer on the TV series "Castle," is writing the script and it sounds pretty epic. Read on!!
Since the truly exciting aspects of this story (which has nothing to do with the video game of a similar name) are in the details, I'll just let Vulture's scoop speak for itself. Here's how they describe the project:
"In 'EDF,' we open on a U.S. military operation gone awry: Sent to rescue what they believe is a sub that's accidentally bumped into a mine in Chinese waters, U.S. naval aviators quickly wind up engaged in a dogfight with a squadron of Chinese air force pilots. Soon, planes on both sides are being shot out of the sky, but not by the Chinese or US pilots, but by three alien attack fighters, which soon depart and destroy many of the world's landmarks and military installations, then, vanish. It's a test of Earth's defensive capabilities, and we failed. Shortly after, NASA detects a radiation signature in a nearby galaxy, indicating a far more massive attack coming in about ten months, and world leaders set about trying to create super-aircraft and weapons that can fight off the coming invasion."
However, those looking forward to Raimi finally deciding what his next directing gig might be will be disappointed to hear that it doesn't sound like he'll be directing this one. However, the project will be looking for a director very soon. Now we're left wondering once again what project Raimi will embark upon next. In addition to the aforementioned projects (Wyatt Earp and Warcraft), Raimi has also been linked to an adaptation of The Shadow (likely only as producer) and maybe Oz: The Great and Powerful but it's still unclear what the filmmaker will tackle. Like all Raimi fans, I'm hoping we find out sooner than later. What do you want Sam Raimi to direct next?

Once established, the Phil Smith ALS and Movement Disorders Clinic will provide the local community with access to leading edge clinical trials and research through an expanded relationship with Massachusetts General Hospital, the largest teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School.
"We are forever grateful for Phil's support of Holy Cross Hospital," said Holy Cross President and CEO Patrick Taylor, M.D. "The funds raised during Epicurean Escapade will help ensure that Phil's legacy and spirit live on through the Phil Smith Neuroscience Institute at Holy Cross Hospital."
Guests attending Epicurean Escapade 2017 will indulge in full plates of delectable cuisine and generous pairings of a wide variety of wines while enjoying a fun evening of dancing, live musical entertainment and an auction featuring trips and other extraordinary experiences.
Chairs for Epicurean Escapade 2017 are Vicki Homer, Cheryl Lamb and Julie Valent.
This marks the 61st year for the Auxiliary's annual fundraiser benefiting the non-profit hospital. Tickets are $250 per person. For more information, call Elaine Lacker at 954-229-8562.

This post is brought to you by PDFelement 6.
If you work at a computer a lot, PDFs are a part of daily life. It makes sense — PDFs are reliable and look great on a wide range of devices, making them ideal for a huge number of uses. But since the text, images and other information comes baked into the document, not unlike a printed page, doing anything but reading a PDF can be tricky.

Last week, I was deeply involved in a project in my 'day job,' working on a presentation for a consulting client. I needed a few specific images to illustrate what I was trying to say. I checked out clip art, thought about looking on the web, and then I realized:
and a somewhat similar version have been downloaded once or twice recently. It's fun to speculate on the uses to which their designers have put them. . .
Any other people out there working on both sides of the screen, as designers and photographers?

Love is like the wind, your life is spinning just like spring has sprun, yet voices lie there, and sing the saddest song. lies lies lies. are what they seem to be, and you soon find out, there will never be a you and me.
Love is like the rain, it splashes down onto the ground in a gracelful way, some might say. It sings the tune, the tune of love, yet gets in peoples way, and seems to missbehave. What does this mean? Will I ever see the rain again? Or will I just be outside, burning with the pain?
Love is like the ocean, it moves swiftly, and never backs down. It twists and turns, but never stops. And always seems to make the mark. But as it sings, it leaves its ways. And parts into one, while the other goes away.

Not STTN. We nurse on demand all night while bedsharing. In a few weeks we will night wean and see if that helps her STTN. I doubt it will happen until her teeth all come in since she is working on her last 6 teeth all at once right now.
Night routine is brush teeth, get night diaper and pjs on, books and songs but then she usually fusses to nurse right away, so we turn out the light and turn on the fan and nurse and she conks out. Sometimes DH gets her down by himself just holding her and singing to her.

Debi Mazar's Dancing With the Stars debut is still three weeks out, but the actress has already won a pretty nifty prize from ABC: a recurring stint on Castle.
Sources confirm to me exclusively that Mazar is joining the second-year dramedy as Paula Haas, book agent to Nathan Fillion's modern-day Jessica Fletcher. She'll first appear in October when she makes Castle an offer he'll find hard to refuse. Accepting said offer, however, would cause a fair amount of upheaval in his life, particularly his relationship with Detective Beckett.

Regardless of how you feel about new Washington State coach Mike Leach, it's hard not to argue that the man is one of a kind. From his "Air Raid" offense, to affinity with pirates and everything in between, there is no one in college football (or anywhere for that matter) quite like him. After all, this is a man that Urban Meyer recently referred to as a "certified nut job"… and the crazy thing was that Meyer meant it in the most complimentary way possible.
Of course Leach is also never afraid to share his own opinion or answer a tough question, and on Monday afternoon he found the perfect forum for just that. Yup, Mike Leach had a Q&A with fans on the social media website Reddit.com, and as you may have guessed, hilarity did ensue.
The questions ranged from serious to funny, football-related to dating advice and everything in between. Here is a sample of a few fan interactions…
Here is Mike Leach…
On football:
Q. What made you decide to go with the spread offense before pretty much anyone else was using it? Who did you learn it from and are you surprised/flattered that it's taken off in such a big way?
(Edit: And as a KU fan, I have to ask, what was it like working with Mark Mangino?)
A. We borrowed from the wishbone because they were good at distributing the football to all of the different skill positions. Then we spread it out so we could attack the whole field. When it comes to football, you have three resources: time, space, and personnel. You want to use all of them as effectively as possible.
We borrowed from a great number of people. I worked with Hal Mumme for 10 years who has a great mind. I had the opportunity to really develop my skills as a coach as we studied different teams and methods throughout the country.
I really enjoyed working with Mark Mangino. I still keep in touch with him. He belongs in coaching and I look forward to the day when he has the opportunity to get back in.
Q. I read some where that your perfect offense would involve no playbook, just letting the offense happen on the field. Is that true? If so, can you expand a little more on it, as I think it's an interesting idea.
A. I don't think that is totally accurate. Your playbook is your film clips. Written playbooks became a little obsolete when they shifted from film to video. We put our playbook on a DVD using film clips.
On Wazzu's future:
Q. How long do you think it will take to make WSU a perennial contender for the PAC-12 championship?
A. I always focus on the short term which is winning one game a week and we are going to try to do that as often as possible.
Q. How do you go about building a program such as Washington State?
Also were there other schools that made you offers? And what made you chose Washington State over them?
A. It's a constant process of evaluation and teaching. You try to do your best every day to emphasize what will move you forward the quickest.
Washington State has a unique identity that few other places do. WSU has a clear, concise direction lead by Dr. Floyd (the president) and Bill Moos (the AD) with very little bureaucracy. We are building all kinds of new facilities and I think there is huge potential here which is why we need you to vote for ESPN College GameDay to come to Washington State!
On his nemesis Craig James:
Q. How much do you hate Craig James, I mean seriously?
Also, congrats on your new job as a fellow Cougar. We down here in Houston don't mind our brethren to the north.
A. I think my opinion is consistent with most of the rest of America's. This is illustrated by a poll done in the Dallas Morning News where people were asked who they would vote for senator: Mike Leach or Craig James. I got 96.5 percent of the vote.
On his favorite non-football topic, pirates:
Q. Who is your favorite historical pirate? If you were to hoist the Jolly Roger and take to the seas, what would be the name of your ship?
A. The most exciting is Black Beard. Perhaps my favorite with regards to efficiency and execution would be Barthlomew Roberts. Don't forget about Sir Francis Drake though. Henry Morgan is interesting but he betrayed his men.
I am open for suggestions in naming my ship!
And finally, here's Mike Leach on dating:
Q. I'm a Freshman at Washington State and I'm new to Pullman. I've got a first date with a girl and I was wondering if you might have some recommendations?
A. First take her to CDs Pit House BBQ in Moscow, ID. If she will get her hands dirty with some great BBQ, you will know you are on the right track! Then I would go enjoy the incredible college life on College Hill at WSU but make sure you have the opportunity to talk to her a lot.
Q. Coach Leach, do you have any marriage tips? You seem to have a solid family backing despite being out of your mind busy all the time. How do you keep it all together?
A. I have been married almost 30 years. Making sure your wife is your best friend is one of the most important things in a good marriage. Neither party needs to keep things bottled up and there needs to be an open line of communication.
You can read the full transcript of the Q&A here.
But as you can see, Mike Leach is a man of many trades!

My rant on the "Law of Attraction"
The Secret vote
Do you like The Secret?
"They're all over the place!"
By now you have probably heard of the "Law of Attraction." With all of the various books, movies, and motivational speakers out there selling the idea, it's a little hard to avoid. This subject is much debated with the same fervor as religion.
Probably the most well known work about the "Law of Attraction" is The Secret. I hear it criticized and promoted on a near daily basis. Rhonda Byrne created the movie and book after reading numerous books and hearing statements from many influential people in history. If you are not familiar with it I recommend checking it out: What Is The Secret?
The Secret gives a "magic pill" approach to the "Law of Attraction." They tell you to get what you desire; you have to keep yourself in the right frequency to get it. For some people this is fine. For most it is not. People go about their lives "faking it until they make it" and never make it. It's one more form of disassociation. The Secret is good but lacks what to do if you are not able to simply side-step trauma and focus on what you want.
Law of Attraction
The Science
The science behind the law of attraction is controversial. It's hard to show clear evidence of something so deeply internal. The facts we can look at are things like:
- Have you ever noticed you somehow end up meeting people who think and act like you?
- Have you ever noticed how you keep meeting people who do the things you hate most?
- Have you ever had a string of bad relationships?
- Have you ever had a bad day?
- Have you ever had a really good day?
- Have you ever noticed how your attitude, your feelings when these events are happening coincides with what is happening?
This helps to personalize and understand what people are trying to say about the "Law of Attraction." All of these things are rather simple and don't necessarily mean anything. Many people will tell you it is a bunch of hokum.
Fun, Short Article by a Network Marketer
My Take
I like to think about the "Law of Attraction" psychologically or in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) terms. To put it simply: Your belief, your "map of the world," determines how you see the world. The mind sorts for the things we understand or expect to see (when you are driving and you see a snake that turns out to be a stick for example).
We do not have all the answers but we do know that attitude, self confidence, and goal setting all make a huge difference for success. Let's use these tools to better ourselves and by proxy, the world.

And so a month goes by--more, even--and the blog sits neglected, because I can't manage to pull the words of happiness out of my brain and get them onto the screen.
* * * * *
Like seemingly every thirty-something woman in America, I watched season two of Downton Abbey earlier this year. Between swooning and then fretting over Bates and Anna, rooting for Mary, and rolling my eyes at Thomas, a brief exchange of dialogue punched me in the gut:
Will you be happy?
I have no right to be unhappy, which is almost the same.
I have no right to be unhappy. This is exactly how I feel. There's this voice in my head positively screaming at me to buck up, count my blessings, and move the hell on with life already.
Arwen talked the other day about failing to give herself credit for handling difficult things, because there's always someone else out there who has it worse. She's always willing to give me a gentle reminder--as did A'Dell, last night--that the things I'm dealing with actually are hard, and that it's okay to cut myself some slack and just be sad.
It's one thing, of course, to acknowledge that one's sadness is legitimate, and I feel like I'm making progress on that front. Yes, life with one child is infinitely preferable to life with no children. Yes, a miscarriage at six weeks isn't as devastating as a second- or third-trimester miscarriage, or a stillbirth, or the death of a born child.** But infertility and miscarriage are heavy burdens, nonetheless, and it's acceptable--understandable, even--to grieve.
Still, it's another thing, a harder thing, to find a way through the grief and back to a place of joy. This is where I have to admit that I need some help, and that gratitude lists and mental pep talks aren't going to cut it. Why does it feel like such a failing to seek for myself the kind of help that I'd recommend to anyone I love?
Part of it may be that I manage to get through my life just fine. My son is well cared-for. My refrigerator is stocked. Dinner gets made. Laundry gets done. My house is clean (enough). I get up and get showered and put on makeup and decent clothes, and I'd venture to guess that no one who saw me out in public would suspect anything was amiss. It's just that I feel like I'm wearing this heavy blanket of sadness. I actually feel it, the weight of it pressing down on my shoulders, my arms, the top of my head. Tears well up in my eyes without warning, in unguarded moments when I get too quiet. David will call me from work and ask how I am, and too often I have to tell him I have the "can't help-its," our shorthand for feeling sucker-punched on what should by all accounts be a perfectly fine day.
I guess there's a part of me that thinks people who really need help are those who can't get up off the couch, or who can't enjoy their children, or who in some obvious, external way are completely falling apart. I don't know that I'd ever be one of those people. What I do know is that if I were a person who loved me--and shouldn't I be?--I'd tell myself to get some professional help.
Seems like good advice.
** Devastating in comparison from an emotional perspective. Of course I believe, as a moral matter, that all life is sacred from the moment of conception.

This is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/895,713, filed Aug. 27, 2007 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,583,321, which is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/900,885, filed Jul. 28, 2004, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,280,153, which is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/301,238, filed Apr. 28, 1999, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,788,311.
This invention relates generally to the display of information intended for higher resolution display on a lower resolution format receiver.
There is increasing interest in displaying information normally displayed on a computer monitor on a television receiver. For example, set-top computers display computer information on an associated television receiver. In this way, conventional computer functions can be achieved without the cost of a monitor and in addition, computer functions can be applied to television reception. For example, set-top computers may implement electronic programming guides which allow access to programming information on the Internet or other sources. These guides also allow the user to select programs for viewing on his or her television receiver through interactions with graphical user interfaces.
Conventionally, computer systems display information on computer monitors in a non-interlaced or progressively scanned format making use of individual pixels which are displayed essentially simultaneously. Television receivers have conventionally utilized an interlaced display. An interlaced display may be divided into two interleaved segments. The odd numbered segments are scanned first and then the even numbered segments are interleaved in between to create a complete picture. Each of the segments, which are formed by a scanning electron gun, may be described as a "field." A conventional television picture or frame may be made up of two fields. Recent digital television standards may also use progressive or non-interlaced scanning approaches.
Information, which was intended to be displayed on a computer monitor, may be degraded when displayed on a television screen. Among other things, the resolution on most television receivers is substantially less than that of computer monitors. The interlacing of the picture on the television receiver may also cause information to be lost. In addition, the color resolution of monitors may be better so that adverse hue and color saturation may occur when displaying computer information on television receivers.
In view of the lower resolution of most television receivers, a decimator may be used to intelligently remove horizontal rows of data from a frame meant for computer display. However, while this approach preserves the layout of the frame, it results in loss of resolution.
In some cases, content developed for display on a higher resolution display may actually be displayed on a lower resolution display than was intended. For example, content developed in a 1024�764 format may be displayed on a 640�480 display (such as a high definition TV display). Because the display resolution is lower, some of the data may be difficult to read.
Thus there is a continuing need for better ways to display information designed for a higher resolution format on a lower resolution display.
In accordance with one embodiment, a method of displaying information on a lower resolution display includes receiving data formatted for display on a higher resolution display. A portion of the lower resolution display is selectively enlarged.
An interlaced display system 10 may include a remote control unit (RCU) 12, a processor based system 16, and a television receiver 18, in one embodiment of the present invention. The RCU 12 may communicate with either or both the system 16 and the receiver 18 using for example, infrared signals. The television receiver 18 is electrically coupled to the system 16, which in turn, may be coupled to receive a source of video such as a television antenna, a satellite antenna, a cable system, or another form of network connection.
As processor based systems, such as the system 16, are generally designed for operation with progressively scanned or non-interlaced displays, problems may arise in using the processor based system 16 with the television receiver 18 or other interlaced displays. The problems that arise may be generally categorized into three types. One type may be described as pixel loss, which is essentially the loss of one or more pixels of the non-interlaced display when displayed on an interlaced system such as the system 18. The second kind of problem that arises is a result of the higher resolution of the non-interlaced display when displaying colors and the effect of color juxtaposition in certain displays. The final set of problems relate to the formatting of interlaced and non-interlaced systems. Ideally, one would like to use the original format of each frame so that the viewer may get the visual effect which was originally intended. However because of the lower resolution of the television receiver 18 as opposed to the intended computer monitor display, less than the entire non-interlaced frame may be displayed on the interlaced display.
For example, referring to
If the horizontal line 36 a is of a thickness corresponding to one interlaced line, it may only be displayed every other refresh recycle, resulting in at least its temporary loss. Similarly detail may be lost in the vertical lines 38 a for the same reasons. The same intermittent effect may be seen in the wavy line 40A. Similarly, with the line 42 a which may be two lines thick, intermittently, one line may be lost resulting in loss of detail, jitter, and other annoying optical effects.
Referring next to
Referring to
Thus correction may be initiated by the viewer as desired with respect to local regions. In one embodiment of the present invention, the entire display frame may, if necessary, be reduced in size to fit in the same format as was originally intended for a computer display. This may increase the loss of resolution, but allows the viewer to see the display as originally intended. In many cases, the flow of the information is somewhat tied to the formatting by page or frame of that information, and causing it to spread from frame to frame may disrupt the flow of information. Thus in some embodiments, the information may actually be formatted exactly the same as was intended for higher resolution displays.
Next, the software 20 may locate potential conversion loss areas (block 24,
Thus the system may look for thin segments that may be lost in subsequent display. It may do this in two ways. It may look for horizontal lines that are less than the height of one interlaced scan. It may also look for lines which are relatively solid but have intermittent breaks in them and may assume that a conversion loss has occurred. Upon selection of that region for magnification, the suspected missing material may be provided as indicated in block 26.
Next a local zoom effect is created in a given region proximate to the cursor or caret (block 26,
In any case, everything within the magnification region is automatically magnified using known software techniques used for text readers. This magnification may restore sufficient definition, using the pixel loss corrections described above, to make the material readable. Thus the viewer may select for magnification a region where the viewer believes pixel loss has occurred. Correction may then be immediately implemented. This enables readability to be obtained without reformatting the entire frame, which could result in loss of flow of information.
Next, as indicated in block 30 in
The amount of time that the magnification stays resident is determined by how long the user selects the appropriate mouse button in one example. In addition, the system may be such that the user can also input desired magnification levels. That is, by selecting a different mouse button, in one embodiment, the user can select a variety of magnification levels each of increasing magnification. Thus, if a given level of magnification does not resolve the problem, still additional magnification may be selected.
In systems using an RCU 12, these magnification levels may be selected using the RCU in one embodiment. The RCU 12 may have navigation buttons 14 used to navigate a cursor to a desired location. The desired level of magnification may be selected by repeatedly clicking on the selection button 14 a until the desired level is achieved.
Referring now to
The AGP chipset 102 may in turn be coupled to system memory 104 and a graphics accelerator 106. The graphics accelerator 106 may be coupled to a TV receiver 18.
The chipset 102 may also be coupled to a bus 108 which in turn may be coupled to a TV tuner/capture card 110. The tuner/capture card 110 may be coupled to a television input signal 112. The input signal 112 may, for example, be a conventional TV antenna, a satellite antenna, a cable connection, or other video source. The card 110 may receive television signals in one video format and may convert them into a format used by the system 16.
The bus 108 may also be coupled to another bridge 114 which in turn couples a memory 116. The memory 116 may store the software 20. The memory may be a hard disk drive or a FLASH memory, as examples.
The bridge 114 may be coupled to a bus 115 coupled to a serial input/output (SIO) device 122, a network 127 and a basic input/output system (BIOS) 124. The SIO device 122 may interface to a mouse 126 and a keyboard 128. The SIO device may also be coupled to the RCU 12 through an interface 130 to enable the system to receive inputs from a wireless remote control. The network 127 may be, for example, a connection to a telephone network or a local area network. As mentioned previously, the RCU 12 may provide either infrared or radio-frequency signals which may be received by the interface 130.
An infrared interface 130 may, for example, be in accordance with the Infrared Data Association protocols such as, for example, the Serial Infrared Physical Layer Link Specification, version 1.2, dated Nov. 30, 1997. The remote control unit 12 may include a keypad 132 coupled to an infrared transmitter 134 that transmits the infrared signals received by the interface 130. A controller 136 may be provided to control both the transmitter 134 and to receive information from the keypad 132. The controller 13C may have associated with it memory 138, which in one illustrated embodiment may be nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM). The memory 138 may store the information provided by the system 16 to enable the RCU 12 to provide the appropriate signals to particular electronic devices to be controlled.
The graphical user interfaces described herein are visual representations of memory states. The graphical user interfaces displayed on the display 18 may be stored in a memory such as one or more of the memories 104 or 116.
While the present invention has been described with respect to a limited number of embodiments, those skilled in the art will appreciate numerous modifications and variations therefrom. It is intended that the appended claims cover all such modifications and variations as fall within the true spirit and scope of the present invention.

text: Hi, I'm looking to make sure I understand a concept properly. If I do a soft reset on a connection pool that has reached its maximum pool size and the soft Reset releases most or all connections, does this mean that the connections in the pool were still checked out and basically doing nothing? That's what I get from the Soft Reset vs Hard Reset definition. I'm looking to confirm this because my connection pools seem to have an issue checking connections back in and I'm trying to understand why. I'm tried using: <property name="unreturnedConnectionTimeout" value="300" /> <property name="debugUnreturnedConnectionStackTraces" value="true" /> But no connections seem to be leaking. Thanks! Cheers!

to begin his solo practice in 2009 and relocate to southwest Austin with
the help of Dental Architect, Fred Ballard and Interior Designer,
Elizabeth Clarke of Schneider Halls Design.
The project goal was to design an office that incorporated the latest
dental equipment and technology while also providing an office with the
aesthetics of a Texas Hill Country home. In addition to the 5
Operatories, the 2,354-square-foot office includes a
Sterilization/Dental Tray Prep, Dental Lab, Digital Panoramic
X-Ray/Processing Area and Mechanical Room that were carefully designed
to maximize the function and productivity of the office. Specially
selected finishes were used to create a comfortable environment while
still being able to function in a dental office.
The custom designed front desk looks and feels like a high end piece of
residential furniture on the Waiting Room side even with the mandatory
handicapped accessible counter incorporated into the face of the desk.
Environmentally conscious design selections such as the dental vacuum
being a dry vacuum, uses no water at all. The Shaw Commercial carpet is
produced from their Eco-Solution Nylon which is a Cradle to Cradle®
certified, recycled and recyclable nylon. Many of the recessed can
lights are LED fixtures which have significantly lower power consumption
and waste heat.
In September of 2009, Shropshire Construction began the interior
finish-out construction of the space and completed the project 73
calendar days later.

If you know of someone who had a great experience with a painter, then chances are, they are a good person to hire! I know of a Portland House Painter that I would certainly recommend to anyone, however not enough people actively seek recommendations from those they know before hiring, and go with the easiest, and often first, painter they can find. However, not everyone knows someone who can recommend a painter. Enter the wonderful internet - full of recommendations from customers of local painters. A majority of companies have Google Maps listings, which often have reviews listed on the business. To be fair, these reviews are often a bit extreme, and may not necessarily reflect the skills of the painter. If a painter has a noticeable number of good or bad reviews, it can help make some early decisions when choosing a painter.
Not all houses are the same and neither are pricing options, which makes determining pricing on your own a bit complicated. Different painters charge in different ways, and may use different painting products, which will influence price. To ensure you are paying a fair price, it is important to get a few quotes before hiring someone. Painters should be able to develop a few options, which hopefully will fit into your personal budget.
Asking if a painter has done a good job or not is often a personal opinion. Home owners are most dissatisfied with how a paint job turned out when it didn't turn out how they expected. This goes to show how important the planning phase and the overall relationship with your painter should be. The amount of time you spend planning with your painter can be a good indicator of how well the end result will be.

Gareth Southgate has been named as the new England manager on a four-year contract.
After the departure of Sam Allardyce, the 46-year-old was placed in temporary charge of the Three Lions and he went on to lead his team to two victories and two draws during his interim role.
The Football Association made the decision to proceed with the process of interviewing Southgate for the full-time position and after talks which lasted over a week, the former Middlesbrough boss has been given a deal which will run until the summer of 2020.
Southgate said: "I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the players over these past four games and I think there is huge potential.
"I am extremely proud to be appointed England manager. However, I am also conscious getting the job is one thing, now I want to do the job successfully.
"I'm determined to give everything I have to give the country a team that they're proud of and one that they're going to enjoy watching play and develop."
Southgate's first game in full charge of the side will come away to Germany in a friendly international on March 22, before England host Lithuania in a World Cup qualifier at Wembley Stadium.

Jamieon Chatman, who is accused of killing two people and wounding six others in a shooting outside a Slidell bar in December, was indicted Thursday by a St. Tammany Parish grand jury on two counts of first degree murder and six counts of attempted first degree murder, court records show.
Chatman was arrested two days after the shooting in Vermilion Parish, where he had fled after the shooting. Four others have been arrested and accused of helping Chatman elude police in the hours and days after the shooting.
The shooting happened outside Shooters Socialbar in the Olde Towne section of Slidell in the early hours of Dec. 26. An argument inside the bar and moved outside near the bar's 2 a.m. closing time. Once outside, the argument escalated into a fist fight before shots were fired.
Errol Scott, a 22-year-old man from Slidell, died at the scene. Mark Womack, a 23-year-old Southeastern Louisiana University student, died later that day at an area hospital. Six others were wounded after Chatman allegedly fired into the crowd that had gathered around the fight.
Chatman's case has been assigned to 22nd Judicial District Judge William J. Knight. A conviction of first degree murder carries with it the possibility of the death penalty.

The Obama team is still hoping that they can "pull a Reagan." Just one problem - with Reagan the recession ended and the economy came back strong. That led to Reagan's landslide victory in 1984. Without that sort of economic recovery, Obama will be fighting a closely-run election with his main hope resting on the Republicans' ability to screw things up. Sadly, that is not a vain hope.
Robert Smith writes on how the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights is ordering colleges and universities to set new standards for prosecuting charges of sexual assault. Without any hearings whatsoever, the DOE has gotten colleges to lower their standards of proof in such cases and resolve the charges in 60 days. It is troubling to see students' rights in hearings so limited without due process.
For all his talk about trying to take into account the costs and benefits of federal regulations, President Obama is obscuring all the many regulations that his administration is formulating that will cost the economy billions of dollars. But he acknowledges that seven proposed regulations could cost a total of $109.5 billion. And that is without even including all the Obamacare and Dodd-Frank regulations coming down the pike.
But here is one costly regulation that the Obama administration is scrapping - the mandate that communities replace hundreds of thousands of street signs in order to change the font that they used and to meet new retroreflectivity standards.
All the liberal groups are getting really scared at the thought that Rick Perry could become the next president. His candidacy hits every liberal piety. The plus side from their point of view is that he would fire up their base and perhaps help disenchanted liberals to get pumped up as Barack Obama wouldn't on his own.
Rick Perry is having to defend a 1993 letter he wrote as Texas Agriculture Commissioner praising Hillary Clinton for her efforts to reform the health care system and asking her to be sure to consider the nation's farm workers who are often uninsured. Though it would be difficult for Romney to use that letter to attack Perry with Romney's own history of Romneycare. But perhaps Bachmann or Santorum can take up the cudgels and thus help Romney out by dinging Perry.
Despite all of Harry Reid's efforts, solar energy and green jobs just aren't providing the sort of jobs promised by Democratic politicians in Nevada.
This is probably not a coincidence. As the federal government is attempting to do more and more, public opinion of the federal government is sinking to a new low.
And, in honor of my all time favorite singer/songwriter whose birthday it is today: Van the Man performing for The Band's Last Waltz:They just don't come better than this. I could start every morning with a healthy dose of Van. In fact, I usually do. As students enter my class to wait for first period, I introduce them to the magic that is Van Morrison. At least they'll learn something important from me.

If solar and wind and geothermal energy are going to work, they should all work here in Nevada, where we have plenty of all three resources, but the fact that most of them are still losing money should raise red flags.
Of course, one of the barriers to the implementation of alternative energy solutions on a large scale even here is the efforts of environmentalists to resist and fight against them. Even in order to build a solar farm like the one in the picture lots of environmental impact studies need to be done, and even then the environmentalists find reasons to try to stop them from being built, which of course only adds to the cost.

The Brooklyn Bridge in New York cost about twenty-seven lives to build. The first man to die was the designer of the bridge John Roebling, an immigrant engineer from Prussia.
Consider the jumping crawl. Have you ever taken the time to from one, before flinging it away from you? Jumping spiders are amazing creatures! Possess incredible vision and can jump over 20 times their body length. Include eight eyes to gauge distance and detect touch. Four of the eyes are long and tubular, having a narrow field of view but making it possible for sharp focus your attention on. That's why they seem to view you so critically – they are really! Jumping spiders also have four eyes the top of the head – 2 toward the trunk and 2 toward the front, that broaden their field of view and act a lot more motion detectors.
After WW2, the Italians came to FNQ. They stuck together and worked hard. They mostly popularized farming. They formed very own cane-cutting gangs. It made it harder for Australians to obtain work. Have been strongly condemned because have been often successful where Australians were hardly.
They also did not fully understand the ebb and flow from the tide. The mudflats are not a natural feature. Have got slowly accumulated over items on the market 50 decades. It's the dirtiest and smelliest thing you can imagine. Anybody who discusses that and says it's beauty really needs to be sick inside head. That goes for your 7000 because they came from attended the rally – they're all queer.
Why did Valmiki thrust his imagination to get the bridge completed only in 5 days? Can have well increased cash advances of days to help people now understand it more practically. Or he could have even reduced the quantity of days to focus on the power of Lord Rama.
This 's that the hearth department and the office of civil projects in jammu of this federal together with the municipal government requires targeted traffic to install smoke detectors, water sprinklers and circuit breakers in the home or on establishment.
The solution – liberalise Queensland sexual morality laws; in particular – legalise prostitution. It'll minimize the thing is. Nothing will totally eliminate doing it.
If you vote or support an "English only" bill or law, you will subsequently be fined! For I have heard you speak, and believe me, tend not to of us are using is not English! Our kids in The united kingdom has taught me to be aware that many here don't speak it fluently. Most words we here have adopted from the Indian, the French, The Spanish, and the Dutch.

TORONTO — Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak doubled down Monday on allegations that Kathleen Wynne was in charge when a Liberal staffer wiped clean 24 computer hard drives in the premier's office, while the NDP walked out of the Ontario legislature when the premier wasn't there to answer to the accusations in question period.
Hudak says information from the provincial police anti-rackets squad shows the boyfriend of a deputy chief of staff to former premier Dalton McGuinty had an administrator's access to the hard drives after Wynne had become Ontario premier-designate.
"Either she was directly involved or she was extraordinarily incompetent to see these things happen right under her nose," he said.
He says Wynne was acting as if she were premier in late January 2013, holding meetings and directing government officials, even though she wasn't sworn in until Feb. 11.
Hudak rejects Wynne's claims that she didn't know what was going on in the premier's office until after she officially took over as premier from McGuinty.
Wynne released an open letter Sunday calling Hudak's allegations "false, misleading and defamatory" and demanding he retract the statements and remove them from the PC party website.
Hudak says he is "absolutely not" backing down from the allegations, adding if Wynne didn't know what was going on then she's incompetent.
The Tories say they won't back down, and accuse Wynne — who is in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. today — of hiding in "a witness protection program" instead of showing up for question period.
The NDP caucus walked out of question period in protest with party leader Andrea Horwath calling Wynne's no-show a "mockery of accountability."
"This is a premier who talks a big game about accountability….but she chose not to show up," Horwath told reporters.
However, Horwath dodged questions on whether her party would support the Liberal budget.
Court documents released on Thursday said police, who have an ongoing breach-of-trust investigation into the decision to cancel two gas plants, believe a senior aide to former premier Dalton McGuinty gave an outside tech expert access to computers in the premier's office and wiped them clean.
Hudak quickly linked Wynne to the revelations, telling a news conference: "We now know that the coverup and criminal destruction of documents and emails took place in Kathleen Wynne's office under her watch as premier," adding that she "possibly ordered the destruction of documents."
Pressure for an election has been mounting since last week, when newly-released court documents revealed that the Ontario Provincial Police believe David Livingston, a chief of staff to former premier Dalton McGuinty, arranged for an external IT expert to be granted access to two dozen computers.
The document is part of a police probe into the unlawful deletion of government emails concerning two gas plants in Oakville and Mississauga that were cancelled by the Liberals ahead of the 2011 election at a reported cost of $1.1 billion.
Over the weekend, Lisa MacCleod, MPP for Nepean-Carleton, updated a list of witnesses for an upcoming hearing on the scandal to include Peter Faist — who was identified as the outside IT expert allegedly brought in by Livingston. He is also listed as the boyfriend of McGuinty's deputy chief of staff Laura Miller.
A PC spokesperson confirmed Sunday that Faist will be compelled to testify to the inquiry under oath. He was not able to be reached for comment to the Post.
In the documents, the OPP claim that Livingston committed a breach of trust. None of the allegations have been tested in court and Mr. Livingston's lawyer has said his client did not break the law.
The information to obtain a search warrant (ITO) contains allegations that Livingston sought permission to "wipe clean the hard drives" during the transition period between the McGuinty and Wynne governments — the latter beginning when Wynne was sworn in on Feb. 11, 2013, two weeks after she was elected Liberal leader.
After the documents were unsealed Thursday, opposition leadership latched onto an entry that claimed the "super" computer access pass given to the external IT consultant was active from Feb. 6, 2013 until midway through March of last year — weeks into Wynne's tenure.
"Now we know that since this happened during her time in the premier's office that she oversaw and possibly ordered the destruction of government documents as part of the coverup," he said.
Premier Wynne was quick to respond, calling Hudak's comment "disgraceful and an insult to his office."
"I had no knowledge of anyone destroying information," she said, in one of several press conferences Thursday. "The allegations indicate that an individual came into the office to delete emails. This did not happen after I became Premier on Feb. 11."
By Sunday night, a lengthy write-up, including soundbites of Hudak's recent allegations, remained on the Ontario PC party website.
It was unclear what legal action Ms. Wynne would take if the opposition did not comply with the letter.
After questions from a PC member, the Premier's office clarified on Twitter that Wynne hadn't spent public funds to get legal advice on the issue.

The seasons here turn like clockwork. First of September and there's a change in temperature signalling that summer's over.
Not quite, of course, because there are still many hot days but there's also an underlying change which is unmistakeably autumn.
As an example, I was lying out in the hammock this afternoon watching a red squirrel skip through the trees to a water bowl left out for his convenience, when I spotted a brilliant white speck yards away in the undergrowth.
Going over to have a look at it, I saw it was the first plump ammonite phalloide of the autumn. Pushing up through the forest floor, it was round, compact and flawless. Soon, it will flatten out into a large white mushroom as wide as your hand. These tantalisingly perfect, toxic snow-white mushrooms are fatal if you're foolish or ignorant enough to eat them. But they're beautiful in a spine-chilling way. It's only too easy to imagine an innocent person grilling them and eating them without a care in the world. The sequel is up to two weeks of slow death as the ammonite systematically destroys your liver. There is apparently no cure although a friend of mine from the nearby village of Le Thor says huge doses of vitamin C have been known to save ammonite victims.
Still - there it was - a sign that autumn arrives in Provence even while the September temperature is still in the high 20s in the middle of the day.
The other current sign of autumn is that the red squirrels are playing wildly in the pine trees. I haven't been able to establish why they do this, but each spring and autumn they spend a few days going crazy in the pine tree canopy, dashing up and down tree trunks, leaping from branch to branch in a frenzy and generally acting like kids at a birthday party. This morning they woke me up at dawn, squabbling outside the house, ticking each other off with cluck-cluck noises and racing up and down the pine trunks chasing each other and turning to be chased.
I tried to go back to sleep, telling myself it was just the crazy squirrels. But it was also, I realised, a sign that autumn's here in Provence.

VTI Doppler Probe For Robotic Surgery
The VTI Laparoscopic Doppler System is a blood flow detector that compensates for the loss
of tactile sensation during laparoscopic procedures by helping the surgeon to identify
vascular anatomy before it is visible to the eye. The system's sterile doppler probes fit
through standard 5mm ports. It is simple to use and no special training is required. This
study is designed to evaluate the use of the VTI (Nashua, NH) 20 megahertz (MHz)
Microvascular Doppler probe in laparoscopic urological surgery.
Patients will take a preoperative sexual health inventory for men (SHIM) questionnaire. The
investigators will then assess presence or absence of arterial and venous blood flow, in
real-time during surgery. Additionally, the investigators will evaluate the safety of
Doppler probe use, the surgical margin status on final pathology, and the post-operative
erectile function of the patients with a followup SHIM questionnaire (to be performed 3
months after surgery). Finally, the robotic surgeon will document whether or not our
original surgical plan was changed or remained the same after the Doppler use.
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Single Blind (Subject), Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Change in SHIM Score (score of erectile function) following surgery
Patients are to be evaluated for erectile function at 8 month post-operative visit using validated SHIM questionnaire.
8 months post-operative follow-up
