Developing for Android
The Android platform uses the MintChip Java API found within the API Reference section of this web-site. To help you quickly get coding on Android with the MintChip Java API we provide a sample package.
The latest Android sample package can be found within the download section of this site.
The MintChip Sample application demonstrates the following concepts:
- Building and deploying an Android application that uses the MintChip API
- Using the MintChip API to:
- Create a Value Message (.ecn file)
- Accept a Value Message (.ecn file)
- Read the MintChip transaction log
- Read the MintChip information and status
The MintChip Sample application presented here has been developed with the intention to make the understanding of these concepts as straightforward as possible. Even though it is a fully functional application, in order to achieve these goals some of the common development practices have been foregone. The application cannot be considered production ready and is not intended for any other usage but to be a sample demonstration of the MintChip Java API specifications.
To deploy and run the pre-built application the following are required:
- An Android phone running the Android OS version 2.3.3 or higher.
- A MintChip microSD card installed within the phone.
To create a development project in order to compile the code it is recommended to use the Android Development Tools (ADT) Plug-in for the Eclipse IDE that can be downloaded from the Android developers site.
What's in the Sample Package
The MintChip Sample application package includes two folder:
- project, which contains the Android Java Eclipse project with the application source code.
- setup, which contains the MintChipSample.apk, an Android application package file (APK) that can be used to deploy the sample application to an Android phone. This folder also contains JAR files and Android native libraries (.so files) that can be used to build Android applications that use the MintChip Java API.
How to use the MintChip Java API
The MintChip API are implemented by the classes contained in the ca.mint.mintchip.android.api and ca.mint.mintchip.contract packages.
A typical approach to using the MintChip API in an Android application would involve the following steps.
- Reference the ca.mint.mintchip.android.api and ca.mint.mintchip.contract Java packages. This can be done by referencing the following JAR files from the Android Eclipse project:
- MintChipAndroidAPi.jar
- MintChipCommon.jar
- Add the following Android native libraries to your Eclipse project under the libs/armeabi folder:
- libMintChip.so
- libSDSCi.so
- In the AndroidManifest.xml file request the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission so that the application can access the MintChip on the microSD card:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
- Import the MintChip API packages into your source code file:
import ca.mint.mintchip.android.api.*; import ca.mint.mintchip.contract.*;
- Create an instance of the class that implements the IMintChip interface, which is the main interface to invoke the MintChip functionality:
IMintChip mintChip = MintChipFactory.getInstance().createMintChip();
- Use MessageFactory to instantiate message types:
IValueRequestMessage request = (IValueRequestMessage) MessageFactory.getInstance().toMessage(base64Request);
- Call methods of the IMintChip interface and be prepared to handle the MintChip Exception:
IValueMessage valueMessage; try { valueMessage = mintChip.createValueMessage(request); } catch (MintChipException e) { //TODO Handle the exception }
Please see the MintChipUtility.java source code file included in the MintChipSample project for more examples on how the MintChip API can be used to create value messages, accept payments in the form of value of value message, read the transaction log and the detailed information of the MintChip installed on a Android device.

Calvaire sterling is so rare, that I have never found a necklace or a bracelet until now. The necklace is made of an emerald cut dark blue with a clear rhinestone below and 2 each bevel set above. The necklace is 7/16" wide and14 1/2 end to end. I will send a free 3" sterling extender, unless you don't need one. The matching bracelet is 7/16" wide and 7" long with a safety chain. Both close with a fold over clasp. Marked Calvaire, sterling on both pieces. Excellent vintage condition. There is only one darkened clear rhinestone. It is next to the clasp on the necklace. Don't miss this one. If you don't live in the United States, mailing will be by Priority Express and insured.

By Adam Tempkin
April 17 (IFR) - While many new subprime auto bonds are getting the highest Triple A ratings, the ratings agencies themselves admit standards are loosening - and some in the market say that needs to change soon.
Skeptical investors are increasingly warning that ratings for the white-hot asset class should become more conservative, especially regarding smaller, second-tier lenders with no long-term record in issuing asset-backed securities (ABS).
The issue is particularly pressing, as subprime auto bond issuance has skyrocketed over the past year.
So far in 2013, nearly US$7.5bn of new subprime auto ABS has been issued, roughly 32% higher than in the same period of 2012, according to Deutsche Bank data.
There was only US$18.5bn in issuance for all of 2012, and just US$11.75bn the year before that.
As supply expands, however, there is a marked difference in the quality of issuers - even among those getting similar ratings from the agencies.
"The gap between the biggest players and the smaller issuers is just massive," said John Kerschner, the head of securitized-product investing at Janus Capital Group.
"The smaller second-tier players go to deep, deep subprime - in the range of a 500 FICO score. That may not be the person you want to lend money to."
The agencies insist that their ratings are rock solid.
"We are confident that the ratings will hold," said Mark Risi, a senior director at S&P, the only agency to rate all four subprime auto transactions priced in the past two weeks.
"We have never downgraded a subprime auto ABS bond for credit reasons since we started covering the sector in 1991."
But there is growing debate about whether the top-rated offerings from second- and third-tier issuers will hold up.
On a recent offering from Ohio-based Security National Automotive Acceptance Co (SNAAC), which focuses on loans to military personnel, nearly 25% of the holders of the underpinning loans have no FICO score - and thus no credit history - at all.
According to S&P, around 24% have ultra-low FICOs of between 500 and 550. And roughly 24% of the loans have loan-to-value ratios of 115% to 120% - meaning that the borrowers owe more than their vehicles are worth.
Even so, S&P rated the deal AA, while rival DBRS gave it a full AAA rating.
And Utah-based Prestige Auto - which caters to borrowers who have recently declared bankruptcy - priced a US$350m subprime auto bond this month whose senior tranches got AAA ratings from S&P and DBRS.
"We're comfortable with the stress scenarios we impose," S&P's Risi said, "as well as our loss expectations, the structural protections on the current deals, and especially the fact that credit enhancement grows as the transaction amortizes."
Credit enhancement is the buffer built into securitizations that protects senior bondholders in case the underlying loans begin to sour.
This kind of protection leads many investors and bankers to say that there is nothing particularly risky in the transactions.
"The ratings quality of these deals as a whole deserves the benefit of the doubt," said Dave Goodson, head of securitized-product investing at ING Investment Management.
"Consumer ABS had one of the most stable ratings profiles through the credit crisis."
For its part, Prestige said that its ABS deals have performed similarly to transactions from ABS mainstays like GM Financial and Santander.
"We have since 1996 issued more than US$2bn in subprime ABS, with no events of default or accelerations, notwithstanding the ensuing economic cycles," said Aaron Dalton, senior vice president of structured finance and business development at Prestige Financial Services.
According to DBRS, Prestige is able to calculate a more accurate debt-to-income ratio on borrowers because of the underlying bankruptcies - either because the debts have been discharged by the courts or are being repaid according to court order.
But the Prestige deal also included a prefunding account, a riskier structure that allows the purchase of additional collateral after the ABS transaction closes. The risk is that new auto loans delivered to the trust could be poorer in credit quality than those already in the pool.
At the same time, all the main agencies have recently warned about a general decline in the credit quality of collateral underpinning subprime auto deals - and each is responding differently.
Fitch and Moody's have either been deemed too conservative by issuers (and therefore not hired to rate deals) or have shied away from lesser-known or unproven issuers.
"We are generally more reluctant to reach AAA on subprime auto ABS for numerous reasons, among them the sector's innately more volatile performance history, operational concerns and often heavy reliance on securitization as sole source of funding," said John Bella, co-head of US ABS ratings at Fitch.
"Stiffer competition and deteriorating underwriting in recent months are amplifying our concerns."
Many investors in the asset class are carrying out their own due diligence, often personally meeting with management of smaller subprime lenders to get a handle on their business models.
"I do site visits and try to find out who really owns the company," said Mike Kagawa, a senior ABS portfolio manager at Payden & Rygel in Los Angeles.
"Do I trust ratings? No. But I take each deal on a case-by-case basis," he said.
"I'm particularly wary of private equity involvement in the subprime auto sector. It's not a problem at the moment, but when the cycle turns, it could be a red flag."
In recent years, private equity companies such as KKR & Co, Warburg Pincus, Centerbridge Partners and Blackstone have bought stakes in various smaller subprime auto lenders.
This increases the money available for subprime companies to loan - and at the same time increases the overall amount of leverage in the market.
Given that underwriting standards are loosening - and that yield-starved investors are more willing than ever to chase returns down the credit spectrum - it could all add up to more potential risk for investors.
"Credit rating agencies have their models and they usually work, but sometimes they're just drastically off," Janus's Kerschner said.
"For subprime auto, it's the kind of model that works - until it doesn't."

A 62 year-old New Jersey man says he was assaulted in a restaurant parking lot on Tuesday for wearing a Donald Trump T-shirt, according to authorities.
Peter Yankowski was walking down the street in Bloomfield, N.J., near New York City, around 5:30 p.m. when a car pulled up to him and a black man began to question him about his shirt.
"He called me white trash. Cursed me out. Gave me the finger," Yankowski recalled, who then responded with some racial epithets of his own.

According to police, the suspect then continued to follow the Trump supporter in his car until they reached a Friendly's restaurant.
The suspect, in his 20s, then came into the Friendly's about 15 minutes later, and the two exchanged words and agreed to take it outside.

The young man then pulled out an anti-theft steering wheel lock and began to beat Yankowski with it.

"The victim sustained injuries to his forearms, hands and thighs. He was treated at the scene," NorthJersey.com reported.
The attacker fled the scene before Bloomfield Police arrived. The description of the suspect was vague and he is still at large. He was driving a 1970s gray compact car in bad condition.
Late last month, an Air Force Vietnam War veteran, also in his sixties, was shot in a Cleveland, Ohio bar after one of the other patrons overheard him talking about Trump.
According to NewsNet5, the attacker in that instance became so angry, he went to his car, retrieved his gun and came in and shot Paul Jones, Jr. in the thigh.

"He butted in the conversation. The conversation wasn't directed at him or to him," Jones stated from his hospital bed.

"I'm quite sure you have a lot of people having their own opinions. But that doesn't mean you should hurt somebody because you have your own opinion," the victim's mother added.
The shooting suspect fled the scene after the July 25 incident, but turned himself into Cleveland Police earlier this week. Darnell Hall, 45, has been charged with felonious assault.

London Florence: Fashion Trend Forecasting and Styling
This course will take you through the skills required to become a stylist and give you an opportunity to work on your own shoot, enabling you to come away with images that will make your portfolio stand out from the crowd...more information below
Taught by: Jo Simpson (Central Saint Martins) and Silvia Tolaro & Claudio Marenco Mores (Polimoda)
A professional stylist's role is far more than deciding on an outfit. They source garments, book models, plan the look, adapt to their audience and the media they are using to present final images. This course will take you through the skills required to become a stylist and give you an opportunity to work on your own shoot, enabling you to come away with images that will make your portfolio stand out from the crowd. In London the emphasis is on styling whilst in Florence there is a more holistic approach to the subject, which covers more trend forecasting in relation to a stylist's work.
Who should attend?
This course is suitable for beginners. No specific skills are necessary but candidates should be prepared to work hard and fast and experiment with new ideas whilst also having lots of fun.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this course the student will have:
- Analysed the emerging trends in contemporary editorial fashion images
- Interpreted the personality of a client and his/her lifestyle through your styling
- Understand the culture of fashion communication business
- Styled and taken part in a photoshoot in both London and Florence
- Created a professional editorial fashion image for your portfolio by considering clothing, accessories, photos and locations
During the first nine days of your studies you will learn the fundamentals of fashion styling.
You will develop techniques for sourcing garments, accessories and props, learn to work within a team with live models and to tight deadlines, as well as undertaking individual creative projects. You will have London as your key reference point and you will use the college and the surrounding public spaces to create amazing fashion images.
You will learn about the fashion magazine business in the UK, both the glossies and the more independent art-based magazines, and identify the differences that their editors demand.
You will take part in a photoshoot working in Central Saint Martins state of the art photography studios and working with models.
The course will be practical and fast-paced with talks from stylists already working in London, and is ideal for anyone who wants to take their first steps in the fashion industry. The work that you create in London will be key to the success of your studies in Florence.
The course in Florence aims to introduce you to the complexities of trend forecasting, by analysing what is happening in society and how this can enable you to spot and decipher trends. This will not be a purely academic or theoretical exercise; you must be ready to implement strategies based on a deep understanding of the client's needs, putting your ideas into practice. At the end of the course you will have assembled a complete portfolio that can be presented to companies in order to showcase your future trend predicting skills, ability to decode images, and your understanding of how to style a magazine.
Trend forecasting and styling is a multi-disciplinary job that covers apparel, accessories, photography, press editorials including cinema, editorial movies, and presentations for fashion shows. It is also necessary for research when scouting the Fashion scene for new designers to work with
The course includes lectures and a live project that will form part of your portfolio.

Sandy Annabi speaks to News 12 before heading to prison
YONKERS - Former Yonkers City Councilwoman Sandy Annabi is about to start a six-year sentence in a federal prison for her conviction on corruption charges.
Before leaving for the Danbury Connecticut's Federal Prison for Women, Annabi sat down for an exclusive interview with News 12 and is still proclaiming her innocence. Annabi says she is limited as to what she could say, while her appeal is still pending. "I am innocent and this has been a very difficult process for my family and I. I believe in the criminal justice system. It is not over," says Annabi.
Annabi was convicted last year of selling her vote on two key development projects in Yonkers, including Ridge Hill. She had hoped to remain free while she appeals her case, but a federal appeals judge denied her request on Friday.
After the interview, Annabi left her parents home in Yonkers and began the drive to Connecticut. She says she is nervous about going into prison, "There is some sort of anxiety because I don't know exactly what I'm walking into but I hold my head up high, because I am innocent."

When it comes to data storage, we're living in a world of exponential demand. In 2009 a team of French engineers started Scality in an attempt to solve this problem at an enterprise level. Before Scality's revolutionary software developments, large companies were stuck. Their growth was confined to physical constraints that filled too fast for them to keep up. Scality came in as a disruptor. They shook up legacy design. The knocked down silos. They changed the face of the storage industry.
Scality's brand was in transition, shifting from a tech-centric company to business services. The brand engaged technical experts so well that it alienated business experts, particularly the C-level decision-makers. It was blocking the company from being a global disruptor and, ultimately, a leader in the marketplace.
Scality's website needed an overhaul. The team knew this already. The site lacked the function and organization that made it a simple and clear experience for its audience. The team had to address multiple personalities and languages, embody its rich culture and answer key questions attractively from the start.
Thank You!

jmagnus87 (92) Rockford, Illinois | June 6, 2011
Down in BG while trying out for the fire department. Decided to check out this store because I had already been to Chuck's. Pretty good selection. I talked to their "beer guy" for a while and found some pretty cool stuff. Walked away with a Dogfish Squall, a Stone Vertical Epic 10 and a Nogne O Dark Horizon 2nd edition. Store was very neat and clean. Well lit and well organized. I really liked the beerbible.com shelf talkers they had. It made it much easier for me to decide what I wanted. I will be back.
LaMichelle (2) | March 4, 2008
They have a humongous beer wall that could be overwhelming, but there is constantly helpful and knowledgeable staff offering their assistance with your beer choices. They have familiar and even more unfamiliar selections in lots of beer varieties (wheat ales, lambics, dopplebachs, IPAs, etc etc). Every Friday they have beer tastings hosted by friendly and informative employees with in-house made beer cheese and/or olive dip, crackers, and cheese blocks to nibble with the brews. (Saturdays they also have wine tastings for all you wine drinkers.) I've definitely expanded my beer pallet and knowledge thanks to them. Great for vetern/new/curious beer drinkers
Math812 (2) | March 4, 2008
They have a wide selection of micro-brews from (but not limited to) Bells, Rogue, Stone, Dogfish Head, Shaflay, Ommegang, and a lot of imports. Probably the largest selection of micro-brews in Bowling Green. They keep up with the seasonal and limited edition beers. The staff is more than willing to help you out and do special orders, and they have beer on tap for tastings every Friday. Hell, a lot of beer. Great for any beer geek.
nqualls (35) Nashville, Tennessee | January 3, 2009
I enjoy visiting this place on every trip to Bowling Green. Greenwood doesnt have prices as low as Chucks just up the road, but you can buy singles here. This is a great place to fill in holes in your beer tasting. The selection may be better than Chucks, it just depends on the day that you are there. Another must visit in Bowling Green.
BeerandBlues2 (1056) Escondido, California | December 25, 2005
The store is very easy to find right off of the interstate. I did not have much time here so I did not check out the cheese shop. I can guarantee I'll be back. This is a gem for anyone living in North Alabama. Wonderdul selection with most Stone products and a handful of Belgians and German beers.
illinismitty (279) Nashville, Tennessee | March 8, 2007| Updated March 26, 2007
This place is located about 60 miles from my house. I am glad the ratebeerians found this, because I have a place to stock up on Bells since my parents can no longer bring Bells down from Illinois. The store has a very open and organized feel to it. Singles are moderately priced, in the cooler and on the shelves. The shelves and coolers are neatly organized with wide aisles for easy browsing. The micro selection includes Bells, Goose Island, Stone, DFH. Ky beers include BBC and Alltech. Some of the limted release beers are a little pricey, such as $21 for DFH Fort and $10.50 for Raison D'extra 12 ounce. I'll cut them some slack, because they are in Bowling Green, KY. Worth a stop if you are driving on I-65. Just check the dates on a few beers.
TheBeerOrg (34) Louisville, Kentucky | August 1, 2005| Updated July 10, 2007
I really like this store. I stop here almost every time I drive from Louisville to Atlanta. They have a very diverse selection of micros, macros, and imports. They recently hired a new beer manager, who keeps the shelves well-stocked with new and interesting brews. They sell almost all of their beers in both 6-packs and in singles. Their website is a bit outdated but gives a good idea of their selection. They have a very large selection of whiskey and bourbon, and the country ham is delicious (this is Kentucky).
KYJimBowie (1) Kentucky | April 22, 2008
Good selection but nonetheless I got disappointed. I was looking for Sprecher Dark Lager and they didn't have it and couldn't get it. But they did have enough that I found several I'm looking forward to trying. Several I bought were based on the suggestions of the staff. Friday afternoon tasting sound fun but I haven't made it to those. I does appear that their interest in the microbrews is genuine. I didn't even look at any of the edibles.
beerguy101 (75) Newark, California | June 6, 2007
Decent selection of micros (Bells, Rogue, Stone, and some CO brews as well. Most everything was available as a single. I got a 10% discount for buying a six pack. Staff was helpful. Big place, easy to find, right off the I-65. Good selection of bourbons and other whiskies.
YourDarkLord (19) Urbana, Illinois | September 6, 2007
Recommended by illinismitty. Nice place, friendly staff, good selection of beers. Didn't get to check much of anything else. Would return.

Drug dealer held in Spain remanded in Ballymena court
An on-the-run drug dealer who was captured in Spain has been remanded into custody in Northern Ireland.
Mark Dunford, 41, appeared in court in Ballymena, Co Antrim, following his arrest in Spain on June 25.
He was detained under a European Arrest Warrant.
The absconder, who is originally from Waterford in the Republic of Ireland but had been living in Coleraine, Co Londonderry, failed to appear for a sentence hearing last February having admitted supplying amphetamines.
Dunford, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to involvement in illegal drug supply in Coleraine and Ballymena after police seized almost £900,000 of drugs in September 2012.
During a brief hearing on Wednesday, deputy district judge Laura Levers remanded him in custody to appear before the sentencing judge in a Crown Court on July 27.
Bearded Dunford, wearing a red jacket, blue checked shirt and jeans, replied: "Aye, no bother."
A detective sergeant earlier confirmed the defendant had been detained under the terms of a European Arrest Warrant.
A solicitor for the drug dealer said he had no questions for the officer. He applied for legal aid for his client.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland's efforts to trace Dunford were assisted by the National Crime Agency and Spanish police.

I just read the findings of the Stanford University study on organic food versus nonorganic foods and wondered how it defines healthy ["Not organic, but still good for you," Editorial, Sept. 5]. I also question the timing of these findings when California, Stanford's home state, has a bill on the ballot that would require all genetically modified crops and feed to be labeled as they are in 50 other countries.
The important point about organic food is what is not in it. Many who support the labeling campaign do so because of the building body of research surrounding the negative effects of nonorganic farming.
Biotech companies produce seeds that are embedded with an herbicide-resistant gene that allows crops to be sprayed with huge quantities of weed killer and survive. This spraying depletes the soil of nutrients.
Don Huber, a plant pathologist and soil microbiologist at Purdue University, has written to the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture about the unexpected consequences of genetically modified foods. He described concerns about high rates of infertility among livestock that eat genetically modified feed. Does that sound healthy to you?

Are Hybrid Cars Financially Sensible?
July 29, 2016
There are several types of hybrid cars available in the current market, in different body styles. These vehicles are a popular choice because of their fuel efficiency, coupled with low emissions. So, are hybrid cars a perfect option for you? For you to answer this question, you'll need to consider a number of factors such as your financial situation, environmental priorities, and driving habits. Although the prices of gas are low today, they are subject to changing fast. Owning a hybrid car somewhat protects you from unexpected hikes in the prices of gas. This is a good reason to purchase a hybrid car when on a stringent budget.
Even in a scenario where the prices of gas don't increase abruptly, you still manage to make savings on the costs of fuel when you drive a hybrid car. Your total gas savings increase when you drive for longer distances. The cost of the hybrid car itself is another factor to consider. For most hybrid cars, there is a premium that customers are required to pay, regardless of whether they are purchasing a compact vehicle or a large-sized SUV. This implies that you will need to save more money for the initial down payment. There is a possibility of facing huge monthly payments, as well as registration and insurance fees. It is therefore advisable to check and confirm these figures before purchasing a hybrid car.
Depending on your residence, governmental incentives are available for hybrid cars. This differs from one state to the other, as well as in various countries. Hence, you need to get accurate information from governmental offices concerning the incentives offered. Remember to also check the hybrid's warranty and its relationship to the battery life. While some companies give lifetime warranties, others offer limited ones. If a battery fails after warranty period, clients will incur huge costs for replacement.
Another great reason for purchasing a hybrid car isn't related to saving money. Rather, this car will help you to save time. In many regions, electric and hybrid car owners are allowed to utilize the carpool lane, regardless of the number of drivers. This is greatly beneficial to those with a rough commute. This saves time, a valuable asset in the current busy world. Purchasing a plug-in hybrid car means that you will get a parking space close to doors of office buildings, airports, and even malls. With a plug-in hybrid, you depend less on gasoline engine since the battery can be recharged from a station using electricity.

1. Buy only watches you'd want to wear in the first place. That way you'll never feel like you're stuck with it.
2. Buy from a reputable retailer. Whether it's part of a major chain or a well-established independent store, the reputation will ensure that you'll enjoy decent servicing and back-up. Also, it's the only guarantee that you're not buying a fake. (The biggest victims of faking are Rolex, Cartier, Breitling, Franck Muller and Panerai.)
3. Be nice. If you form a rapport with a retailer, that store will look after you over the years.
4. Look to the established brands. Patek-Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Audemars-Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, Rolex, International Watch Co. Schaffhausen and others of that caliber didn't survive one or more centuries through luck. Their products become family members, heirlooms that survive from generation to generation. And if you really must do some selling, they're easier to place.
5. Be conservative. Nothing dates more quickly than a radically styled watch.
6. Don't buy quartz watches except for knock-around sports purposes. Regardless of the price, the movements are disposable and, after a certain period, irreparable.
7. If funds are limited, choose a watch with a strap over one with a bracelet. Bracelets add hugely to the cost, and a fine watch on a strap is better than a so-so watch on a bracelet at the same price point.
8. When buying new for investment, keep all the paperwork and boxes.
9. When buying vintage, especially from a dealer, ensure that there is a guarantee of at least six months if the watch is being sold as serviced. "As seen" is a red flag telling you not to buy it if you don't have a watchmaker at your elbow to advise you. Try to get someone who knows about watches to examine it before you make your purchase. The inside of a watch will tell a repairer how many times it was serviced during its lifetime. The more it has been serviced, the better the condition will be.
10. When buying at auction, try to attend the viewing beforehand to handle and see the target of your bidding. If you're quick off the mark, you can even ask for a condition report from the auction house a couple of weeks before the auction.

Should you opt for the retouched school portrait?
Looking back at my school pictures I know I would have begged my parents to spend the extra bucks to get rid of my adolescent acne if it had been an option. When my son was in grade school I always chose the retouched package without even consulting him. I was thinking back on my own experience. But will I be sorry in 50 years when I look back and the images I have are not authentic?
The NY Times article "No Boo-boos or Cowlicks? Only in School Pictures" talks about the pros and cons of digitally retouching school portraits and the issues that it raises. The author asks if we are sending our kids the wrong message if we choose to get their photos retouched. Is it good for their self-esteem or are we inadvertently undermining it?

TropiShade 636B12 Market Umbrella Review
Most Appreciated Patio Umbrella from TropiShade
The TropiShade 636B12 Market Umbrella features ribs made of fiber glass, for additional sturdiness and stability, as well as a wind vent.
This patio umbrella comes equipped with a crank lift and it can be tilted in three different positions, making for a more versatile choice than most of the models available.
The fabric of the canopy is made of polyester and it can withstand a lot of wear and tear.
Your purchase is accompanied by a one year warranty from the manufacturer.
This 9 foot patio umbrella offers great coverage during sunny days, when you need to protect yourself against the harmful UV rays.
While the warranty offered is a great add on to your purchase, you should know that wind damage is not covered. However, since the model comes equipped with features that grant it more stability in windy conditions, only really strong winds may cause irreparable damage to this patio umbrella.
Buy from Amazon.com for ($89.09)
Benefits explained
- Most of the TropiShade 636B12 market umbrella reviews praise the sturdy construction of this model. The pole is made of aluminum, to maintain the patio umbrella lightweight and easy to carry around, while the ribs are made of fiber glass. This material is very sturdy, while being very lightweight and it helps maintaining your patio umbrella in good working order for a long time.
- When you are purchasing a patio umbrella, you most probably want a model that is more versatile, so you can use it in various setups. The TropiShade 636B12 Market Umbrella will not disappoint you, as it has three different tilt positions, so you can adjust it as you see fit. The crank lift mechanism is very easy to use and opening your umbrella is easy as a breeze.
- Made of polyester, this umbrella is not pretentious at all when it comes to maintenance. Polyester can withstand plenty of wear and tear, and, when it gets wet, it dries very fast, so you don't have to worry about the umbrella, even if you forget it open in the rain.
- Named the best patio umbrella from TropiShade, this model comes with a one year warranty. Usually, products last longer than their warranties, and, while other patio umbrellas become unusable within just a few months, it is good to know that there is a model that can take a lot more abuse, without giving up, like the rest.
- Coverage is very important for patio umbrellas, because this is their main purpose. The TropiShade 636B12 Market Umbrella can easily be considered the best 9-foot patio umbrella you can find out there, because of its sturdy construction and great coverage offered during hot summer days.
When shopping for a reliable and sturdy umbrella for your patio or backyard, do not overlook the TropiShade 636B12 Market Umbrella. It represents one of the best solutions for whenever you need to get great protection from the sun, while still enjoying the weather outside. With great coverage and made of reliable materials, this model will not disappoint you and will make relaxing by the pool or in the garden a real treat for you and the entire family.

1. I've added two new pages you might want to check out: FAQ and Ingredients. The former is a compilation of questions I've received from readers + my answers; the latter is a running list of ingredients I frequently use that might be unfamiliar to some people. I will update both pages as necessary… and if there is anything you'd like me to add, please let me know!
2. Last Saturday night, John and I fell neatly into stereotypical guy/girl roles when deciding where to go out to dinner. He chose takeout burnt ends, brisket, and sausage from Blue Ribbon BBQ, (which, I can attest to, is fantastic – but serves waaaaay too much meat for me), whereas I opted for the Whole Foods salad bar.
Pictured below: Israeli couscous salad, wheat berry salad, quinoa salad, baked tofu, mashed lime sweet potatoes, and a hard-boiled egg over greens.
The salads were as great as ever, but I was less than blown away by the tofu and sweet potatoes. The cook might just have been off his/her game that day, because everything is usually delicious.
2. I tried to make peanut butter chocolate banana pancakes for you, but as is evidenced in this photo, I failed. Horribly.
I'm blaming either the [probably too old] peanut flour or the extra tablespoon of buttermilk I added to the batter to compensate for the extra dry ingredient of cocoa powder.
Kitchen flops are never fun, but you've gotta just pick yourself up and get back at it!
3. I've been playing two albums on repeat lately, alternating between Adele's 21 and Bush's brand-new The Sea of Memories. That should give you a glimpse into my eclectic taste in music ;).
4. Although – as you know – I'm super excited for fall, I am still making a concerted effort to appreciate the last signs of summer.
Such as this gorgeous Morning Glory:
5. So, you know all about how much I love making dessert-inspired breakfasts (case in point).
Well, what you see here is a breakfast-inspired dessert.
Frozen banana slices, my version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Ice Cream, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and a handful of Three Sisters Cinnamon Sweets thrown into the blender and blended until smooth.
Basically, this was a dessert-worthy cereal & banana milkshake. And it was absolutely delicious!
6. The 16 month old girl I babysit is utterly adorable! She walks at a confident pace these days, has an unparalleled sense of curiosity, and jabbers almost constantly – in an incredibly sweet little voice :).
And she has cuter clothes than I do.
7. Despite #4 above, I have been LOVING the weather over the past few days! I'm a cold-weather girl at heart, and these brisk mornings and cool afternoons have been perfect. It's almost fall!!

"Car seat installation with LATCH is still complicated. We have just as much possibility for misuse as we do with seat belt systems."
AAA - car seats
Are manufacturers changing?
Huebner-Davidson indicated that hope may be on the horizon. But first, federal standards will have to change and then vehicle manufacturers will need to work to implement the new standards.
"The issue is with the spacing of the anchors in the back seat and the seats themselves are reinforced differently," said Huebner-Davidson. "We should start to see increased amounts of vehicles with additional LATCH seating positions. The government only requires that vehicle manufacturers place two seating locations in the back seat that can use LATCH. That's why we see the two outboard seating positions. The government also requires top tethers all the way across the back in three locations.
"Vehicle manufactures will have to reinforce the seats differently, look at how they can offset some of the anchors to be able to have enough space in that center seating position – because a lot of times that center seat is a bit more narrow than what we need for a car seat."
Recommendations for parents
In the meantime, Huebner-Davidson offers the following advice for parents.
- "The biggest thing for parents is to understand that it's not as easy as click-click, you're done. I recommend they be very careful. Read the vehicle owner's manual and the car seat instructions.
- "We also have car seat technicians across U.S. that can help them look at the instructions, where the best place is to place the car seat in the vehicle, and show them how to safely do it. The techs will walk parents through it, show them how to use both systems (LATCH or seat belt), ask them about who else they transport in their cars, to make sure that everything is as perfect as possible."
The car seat check is free at AAA locations and takes an average of 15 minutes per seat. Some vehicles have two or three car seats. It can take up to 45 minutes if it's a really difficult situation or the parents have a lot of questions.
Parents can go to seatcheck.org or NHTSA.gov to find fitting stations. There are also law enforcement offices that do car seat checks, SAFEKIDS, hospitals, fire rescue. A few places do charge for appointments, but there's usually a note if they do charge for it.

SAN JOSE, Calif. - Hawaii's first national television game comes at a most opportune time.
With the initial Bowl Championship Series standings set to be released Sunday, the 16th-ranked Warriors are looking to make a good impression tonight at San Jose State.
"We're definitely excited to get out there and showcase what we really are," quarterback Colt Brennan said. "We get a chance for everyone to watch us more and make a statement. It's obviously a great opportunity for us and it's a team we can get excited about playing. It can get tough preparing for opponents that everyone says you're supposed to beat by a large margin."
The first six opponents this season for Hawaii (6-0, 3-0 WAC) have combined for a record of just 7-28, making it difficult for the Warriors to impress poll voters or build up the strength of schedule necessary to move up in the computer rankings.
It also has made it hard for Brennan to impress Heisman Trophy voters as well. He has completed 73 percent of his passes for 1,850 yards, 16 touchdowns and six interceptions.
"We really don't think we've proven anything yet," Brennan said. "I really feel this next chapter, these next six games, will define our football team."
That's why the focus remains on the games at hand rather than the rankings, beginning with Friday's contest against the Spartans (3-3, 0-3).
Hawaii needs to be in the top 12 of the BCS standings at the end of the regular season to follow in Boise State's footsteps and qualify for a lucrative BCS berth.
"I think that's more important for everyone else," coach June Jones said. "We'll just show up and play as hard as we can and the polls will take care of themselves at the end of the year."
In the two games between ranked teams, No. 1 LSU is at No. 17 Kentucky and No. 6 Oklahoma visits No. 11 Missouri.
In other Top 25 games of note, it is: No. 2 California vs. Oregon State; No. 4 Boston College at Notre Dame; No. 22 Auburn at Arkansas; No. 5 South Florida vs. UCF; No. 7 South Carolina at North Carolina; No. 10 Southern Cal vs. Arizona; No. 15 Cincinnati vs. Louisville; No. 18 Illinois at Iowa; No. 19 Wisconsin at Penn State; No. 14 Arizona State vs. Washington; and No. 20 Kansas vs. Baylor.
Also there is: No. 3 Ohio State vs. Kent State; No. 9 Oregon vs. Washington State; No. 12 Virginia Tech at Duke; No. 23 Texas at Iowa State; No. 24 Georgia at Vanderbilt; and No. 25 Tennessee at Mississippi State, 2:30 p.m.
The polls won't matter if Brennan doesn't recover from a right ankle injury that has slowed him in recent weeks. He missed almost the entire second half of last week's 52-37 victory over Utah State, but is expected to start Friday.
Brennan, who has thrown a TD pass in 31 straight games, hopes to make it through this week's game OK and then use a stretch in which the Warriors play just once in four weeks to get healthy for the stretch run.
"I'd like to be as close to 100 percent as we get toward the end of the year," he said. "I'm not full speed. Every day I get a little bit better. Every week is dramatically better than the week before. We have a bye week after this game so if there's one week I can really push it, it's this week."
The opponents get tougher from here on out for the Warriors, who finish the season with games against New Mexico State, Fresno State, Nevada, Boise State and Washington. One bad game could doom any hopes of a BCS bid.
Including San Jose State, the remaining teams on the Warriors schedule are a combined 17-15.
"We know because of who we are, one slip-up at any moment ends it," Jones said. "We're not like one of those teams like Florida who can lose a game and go from first to fourth or fifth. If we have one slip-up, we go to 50th."
The Warriors, who have won six straight road games for the first time in school history, are looking for their first 7-0 start since San Jose State coach Dick Tomey was in charge at Hawaii back in 1981.
After losing its three games overwhelmingly to teams from major conferences, San Jose State has responded by winning the past three games against easier foes Utah State, UC Davis and Idaho.
Adam Tafralis has led the way, completing 82 of 114 passes for 1,058 yards and seven touchdowns during the winning streak. The running game finally contributed last week against Idaho when James T. Callier gained a career-high 93 yards and the team topped 100 for the first time all season with 135.
"We are just looking for improvement, because we have been woeful rushing the football," Tomey said. "Part if it is that we haven't been persistent about it. If you make a yard, you have to run again. If you make no yards, you have to run again. It just doesn't happen. You have to make it happen."

The Mouse's Ball
Published by Wreybies in the blog Ponderings of a Pachyderm. Views: 204
Twice tonight, and thrice before
I had reason to take score
of all the mice beneath my bed,
across my pillow, behind my head!
Try as I might, I've yet to learn
the purpose of this danz nocturne.
The rodents twirl, cavort, and leap.
This must needs end; I need my sleep!
"We shall play, and we shall dance,"
squeaked a mouse in mid-prance.
"We've the run of the whole house,"
said to the mouse the mouse's spouse.
"Oh, do you now, well then see here.
There are some rules I must make clear.
The dancing may commence at one,
but come eleven it must done!"
"But at eleven is when we wake!"
The mouse sipped tea and ate some cake.
"This sounds to us not fair at all!
Our steps need work before the ball."
"Before the ball? And what is that?"
I began to think about a cat.
"The Mouse's Ball, you silly twit!"
The mouse pulled from his fur a nit.
"A Mouse's Ball? That will not do!"
I got up from bed to grab a shoe.
The mice ran here and then ran there.
I turned around, they were no where.
A Mouse's Ball, of all the cheek!
I was aghast, I could not speak.
I knew there'd be no sleep tonight.
A mouse's ball, what a fright!
"We beg you, sir, to be so kind.
Let us explain and speak our mind.
My wife and I must dance and play
For we've a newborn on the way.
"Our baby comes before the fall.
We must attend the Mouse's Ball.
The judges of the ball decide
where every couple shall reside.
"We beg you, sir, take no offense.
We mean this in the kindest sense.
A more slobbish man than you, we think,
has never supped or took a drink.
"This flat, it is a mouse's heaven,
and our newest will make number seven.
This is the house that we must need,
if our whole family we are to feed.
"We love you dearly, for you are kind.
You leave out bread and apple rind.
You never wash out any dishes.
You have answered all our wishes!
"So we must dance, and dance our best,
to keep our house behind the chest.
We ask you for your help tonight,
and pray you come to see the light.
I did feel pity for their plea
as they looked up from bended knee.
Their little hands were clutched so tight.
How could I ignore their plight?
"In good conscience, I cannot
remove your family from this plot.
So dance and dance and dance some more,
upon the bed, across the floor."
"One day my maker I will face,
and I would fear to fall from grace
for having shown no charity
to those who would depend on me."

Morin-Heights, Qc
The unknown, the least seen, the hidden, the colorful, the beautiful ... Mountains, Light, Reflections, Seasons, Animals, Flowers ... Playful camera, creative experiments, metal ... Macro, close-up, wide-angle ... to name only a few.
Fascinated by what the eye does not detect "at first sight", fascinated by the look through my camera lens, turning, narrowing, widening, changing ... I love to create.
I am a silkpainter and photographer, combining my two big passions. Both are unique creations ... photography is often the base of my painting.
Within my photographic work you will find a lot of close-ups, mountains, nature, but also unusual objects under a new light and/or generally used objects becoming unusual. I love colors, reflections, light ...
This brings me to my roots: I feel very privileged to have been brought up in a mountain village in central Switzerland, being surrounded by gorgeous nature and living everyday with all the phenomenons appearing in mountain areas. I now live in Montreal, Canada, and am preparing for an exhibition within KOKU 2012 in Germany in April 2012. Somehow, my roots are still very much oriented towards Europe. And it was with great pleasure that I accepted this wonderful invitation. I will show my photographic work within the virtual (projected on giant screens) exhibition and shall be - if possible - personally present with my silk wall art (wall hangings), which, of course, will also be for sale.
With this being said, I am proud of being part of FineArtAmerica and to share with the world what I love to create.
Also, please visit my silk painting web site at
Thank you!

Riven Build Guide by Remnance
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Riven Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Updated after played this character about 20 more times. Each time I'm learning a bit more of her depth. While she looks simple and plain. She is far from it. The endless ways you can stream her abilities makes this to be a fun and long lasting character. I almost don't want to give away my secrets. Riven has feel like Karma too me. A real beast when people actually take time to learn to play her properly.
Many people seem to be getting her role all wrong from what I can tell. Her true role in the game is Melee Disruptor. This build focuses on laning with a partner but works with solo too. If I don't trust my team mates I tend to take heal over exhaust. Wonderful at denying enemy kills. Great for baby sitting your laning partner also.
I know what riot says and all that, but it's wrong.
They have a general box build for every one. So that the players will actually try and learn to do something new.
I'm hoping I'm right in my assumption saying they put together the items and spotlight of a new champion with 4k gold owning a enemy champion with 2k as a joke. Any ways lets get to the build.
League of Legends Back Story:
In Noxus, any citizen may rise to power regardless of race, gender, or social standing - strength is all that matters. It was with committed faith in this ideal that Riven strove to greatness. She showed early potential as a soldier, forcing herself to master the weight of a long sword when she was barely its height. She was ruthless and efficient as a warrior, but her true strength lay in her conviction. She entered battles without any trace of doubt in her mind: no ethical pause, no fear of death. Riven became a leader amongst her peers, poster child of the Noxian spirit. So exceptional was her passion that the High Command recognized her with a black stone rune sword forged and enchanted with Noxian sorcery. The weapon was heavier than a kite shield and nearly as broad - perfectly suited to her tastes. Soon after, she was deployed to Ionia as part of the Noxian invasion.
What began as war quickly became extermination. Noxian soldiers followed the terrifying Zaunite war machines across fields of death. It wasn't the glorious combat for which Riven trained. She carried out the orders of her superiors, terminating the remnants of a beaten and fractured enemy with extreme prejudice. As the invasion continued, it became clear that the Ionian society would not be reformed, merely eliminated. During one bitter engagement, Riven's unit became surrounded by Ionian forces. They called for support as the enemy closed in around them. What they received instead was a barrage of biochemical terror launched by Singed. Riven watched as around her Ionian and Noxian alike fell victim to an unspeakably gruesome fate. She managed to escape the bombardment, though she could not erase the memory. Counted dead by Noxus, she saw an opportunity to start anew. She shattered her sword, severing ties with the past, and wandered in self-imposed exile - on a quest to seek atonement and a way to save the pure Noxian vision in which she believed.
''There is a place between war and murder / in which our demons lurk.''
You can see the runes above.
Armor Pen for skills and auto attacks.
Dodge runes survival. A key part of the Kensai is not be brought down so easily. If you want speed instead you change these out for armor or health regeneration for early game. And choose the Boots of Swiftness or Ionian Boots. But you lose a lot of survivability in team fights that I've noticed.
Cool Down reduction glyphs for abilities. I find that they come back up quick enough with levels letting you focus on dealing the damage.
Lastly Gold Quintessences. Since this is a very high gold demand build.
She is melee after all so it makes sense to max out her attack tree. I choose utility next because I love xp bonuses and to finish off getting 4g/10 from the beginning.
I know your probably wondering why I didn't go defense tree and finish up the dodge bonuses. You just don't need them right now your about 19% Dodge. Without the bonus xp and extra 1g/10 you start to fall behind quick.
Play smart and early game might give you a kill or two with a good lane partner. Even if they start locking you down it won't be long till the g/10 gives you the hp you need to fight back.
To make up for her early game and expensive build I've noticed another way to play her. Now focusing on survival/gold/killing power.
Early Philo Stone and Avarice gives you staying and attacking power with 10 bonus gold per 10. That means your making 14/g per 10 or 140g every 10 seconds for doing nothing.
Ninja Tabi next will give you amazing survivability. Dodging 1 out of every 5 attacks can't be beat.
This will give you a lot of freedom. Next I tend to focus for cd's.
With Kindle and Brut giving you kill power. You'll have to decide when you need the speed boosts but stay away as long as possible so you can keep the gold up.
Next up will be Atma's followed by Warmog's. You might switch out Warmog's for Trinity also if you have a decent team.
After that finish up Ghost blade and Shurelya's.
Last item with either be Tiamat for splash or Trinity Force for utility.
Skill Sequence
Spread out the first three and then max out Q since it becomes your main source of damage. Helps alot in farming minions since your passive will help you get that last hit.
Not much else to say. I tend to favor attack but if you like the shield more have fun.
Summoner Spells
Like I said earlier in the beginning. Heal or Exhaust and Teleport.
Teleport lets you get back to that all important xp so much more quickly. And helps compensates for the speed of this build. Only 15 seconds from the tower is nice.
If you want speed later Ghost instead can be useful plus you can put a point into it.
Team Work
It is preferred that Riven not be the first one in. That is the job of the true tank. With that said however if you have a tank that refuses to initiate you can do so safely and prevail quite well.
Your job in the team is disrupt and kill their carries/dps. Riven does nice damage when she is not targeting tanks and between third Q attack and the W she can save most any team member.
These abilities are amazing at stopping enemy Ults such as Kat's Blade Dance, Mal's locked down, Warwick's suppression just to name a few. I have even used them to successfully counter Tryandamere's Endless rage also.
Believe me. Kat will hate you for the entire game since one simple W shuts her down. Just be on the look for them to pop in.
Plus once you unleash The Blade of the Exile their Clothies will melt.
Since you are Melee DPS the early game is against you. Farming can be quite difficult with a skill ranged champion opposing you.
I find the best bet is Valor combined with one or two attacks with Q to get the damage in. The second and third Attacks with Q should be used to pull yourself to safety.
Luckily with your health and dodge being so high, this should quick become less and less of an issue.
