I commute to work via bike off and on; I seem to do it for a few weeks a season, then get out of the habit when something comes up that make it inconvenient. Now that I'm back in the city, and there's a lot more within biking distance, I'm hoping to use my bike more for getting around. I tend to treat my bike as a way to get around town, as my commute or on the weekend; I don't spend much time biking for fun.

An electric file is the perfect tool to use on a nail when you're trying to achieve a smooth, finished look.
Type of bit to use: Either medium barrel, diamond, or carbide; extra-fine diamond
1. Beginners can use a pencil to draw on the nail and help them determine where to take down the sidewalls. By now, the nail should already be shortened. Support the nail by holding it tightly. This helps eliminate extra vibrations and is more comfortable for the client. Apply pressure across the nail to the desired length. Use horizontal motions when shaping the nail, going from sidewall to sidewall. The bit should float across the nail. Stick to a speed between 5,000-12,000 RPM.
2. When working near the cuticle area, the bit should be parallel to the nail. Move the client's hand for added ease. When working on the cuticle area, reduce speed to under 7,000 RPM.
3. Smooth the nail with an extra-fine diamond bit and a drill-friendly oil. Avoid using cuticle oil as it can clog and damage the electric file.

Turkey Salad With Sauteed Walnuts
|Diced cooked turkey
|4 Cup (64 tbs)
|Chopped celery
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Light cream
|2 Tablespoon
|Tarragon vinegar
|2 Tablespoon
|1 Teaspoon
|1⁄8 Teaspoon
|Chopped walnuts
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|2 Tablespoon
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
Combine 4 cups diced, cooked turkey and 1 cup chopped celery.
Blend 1 cup mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons each light cream and tarragon vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
Add to turkey, toss lightly to mix well and chill.
Saute 1 cup chopped walnuts in 2 tablespoons butter or margarine until crisp and golden.
Drain thoroughly on paper towels.
Just before serving, stir 3/4 cup of the nuts into the salad.
Arrange salad on lettuce leaves and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup nuts.
Chopped pecans or hazelnuts may be substituted for the walnuts, and of course, chicken (or a mixture of chicken and turkey) may replace the turkey, a fine way to use up leftover holiday poultry.
Cooked poultry, by the way, may be diced and frozen for future use.
If preferred the Turkey Salad can be dressed with a less rich and creamy dressing made by blending 3/4 cup olive or salad oil, 1/4 cup tarragon vinegar, 1 garlic clove, crushed, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon each black pepper, dry mustard, paprika and grated lemon rind.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
The current Supreme Court has marriage, the role of parents in the education of their children, religious and economic liberty - and many other matters which could determine the future of freedom on its docket. This fact alone should bring every Pro-Life, Family and Freedom American to the ballot box on November 6, 2012.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
10/4/2012 (2 years ago)

Keywords: Right to Life, pro-Life, pro-Choice, Supreme Court, Religious Liberty, Freedom, culture war, marriage equality, human rights campaign, Marriage, abortion, Romney, Obama, Biden, Ryan, Deacon Keith Fournier
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - On May 4, 2009, Pope Benedict XVI spoke to members of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. He sounded a common theme of his papal Magisterium - that there is a Natural Law which can be known by all men and women through the exercise of reason. He explained that this Natural Law reveals to all men and women the existence of fundamental human rights which are binding upon all Nations and for all time.
"The Church has always affirmed that fundamental rights, above and beyond the different ways in which they are formulated and the different degrees of importance they may have in various cultural contexts, are to be upheld and accorded universal recognition because they are inherent in the very nature of man, who is created in the image and likeness of God. If all human beings are created in the image and likeness of God, then they share a common nature that binds them together and calls for universal respect."
Believing in the Natural Law as the source of fundamental human rights is absolutely critical in the light of the current decline of Western civilization. In the U.S. and much of Europe there is a denial of fundamental Human Rights which began with the denial of the foundation of all true human rights, the Right to Life. Rights are goods of the human person - not ethereal concepts floating around somewhere. When there is no human person there can be no rights for him or her to receive as an endowment from our Creator and exercise in civil society.
The Pope told the leaders: "Strictly speaking, these human rights are not truths of faith, even though they are discoverable - and indeed come to full light - in the message of Christ who "reveals man to man himself" (Gaudium et Spes, 22). They receive further confirmation from faith. The Church's action in promoting human rights is therefore supported by rational reflection, in such a way that these rights can be presented to all people of good will, independently of any religious affiliation they may have."
The Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church explains that the legitimate exercise of freedom requires Natural Law as a reference point: "The exercise of freedom implies a reference to a natural moral law, of a universal character, that precedes and unites all rights and duties. The natural law "is nothing other than the light of intellect infused within us by God."
"Thanks to this, we know what must be done and what must be avoided. This light or this law has been given by God to creation". It consists in the participation in his eternal law, which is identified with God himself. This law is called "natural" because the reason that promulgates it is proper to human nature. It is universal; it extends to all people insofar as it is established by reason." (Compendium #240)
In an Orwellian twist the denial of fundamental human rights now comes couched in counterfeit "rights talk" which substitutes judicially or legislatively manufactured "new-rights" in their place. It uses what Orwell called "newspeak". The most egregious example is labeling an intrinsically evil act, the taking of innocent human life in the womb, a "new-right" to abortion. Abortions do not have rights, human persons do. Every procured abortion takes away a child's Right to Life. One can never have a "right" take innocent human life. That is the case even if the positive law of a given State declares it to be "legal". Every procured abortion violates the Natural Law Right to Life.
Another example is the enforcing of a legal equivalency between homosexual relationships and marriage in the civil law. This is done by relabeling opposition to true marriage as supporting a "new-right" to "marriage equivalency". This is a verbal subterfuge, calling homosexual partnerships what they can never be because they cannot fulfill the ends of marriage.
Those who support marriage as a lifelong committed relationship between one man and one woman are now recast as "opposing marriage rights". In an Orwellian spin, they are accused of excluding people from marrying, being "narrow minded" or trying to push "values" or, even worse "religion", on others. No matter where one stands on other current issues, if you support marriage as marriage you are a bigot in this age of moral relativism.
The oxymoron, "gay marriage" is now normative for the media as they recast efforts to defend and promote marriage as opposing "marriage equality". This effort to force equivalency between homosexual unions and marriage has gained ground through a sophisticated, intelligent, well funded and multi-faceted effort. The goal is clear - the total re-ordering of civil society in a cultural revolution.
They are led by groups with noble sounding names like the "Human Rights Campaign" and "Marriage Equality USA". Both are well funded and dedicated to convincing the public that there is a "new-right" to not only engage in homosexual sexual practices and live together, which has always existed in societies, but to have that lifestyle given an equivalent legal status to marriage which is then enforced by the police power of the State.
There is a growing misuse of the Police Power to enforce these counterfeit "new-rights" with an iron hand. It is ominous. There is a propaganda effort aimed at those who insist on the existence of a Natural Law. They are dismissed as taking a "religious" position which should be censored, or at least confined to the four walls of a Church. This sophistry is used to confuse people concerning the reasonableness of the Natural Law position.
As we approach the coming Presidential election we must ask where these two candidates stand on human rights and where they think such rights come from. Are they conferred by the government and subject to change? Or, are they endowed by a Creator and inalienable? Here we need to remove beyond the rhetoric and look to their positions. What do these candidates mean when they use the word rights? Are they speaking of true rights or "new-rights".
This has serious implications on how the next person to occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue will govern on many fronts. One aspect of that governance, one which is not being discussed mush, is the next President's choice of as many as four future Supreme Court Justices. There are four Justices who in their seventies, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy and Stephen Breyer.
The Anti-Right to Life decisions of Roe and Doe are perennial reminders of why the choice of Supreme Court Justices matters. This is one of the most important aspects of the power of the Presidency. The majority opinion in Roe and Doe reached into what that Court called the "penumbra" of the Constitution and manufactured a "new-right", producing an indefensible judicial holding and unleashing license masquerading as liberty.
By Judicial Fiat the Roe Court "removed" the Right to Life from millions of our fellow human persons and first neighbors in the first home of the womb. They placed the Police Power of the State behind protecting their killers. Roe was grounded in faulty history, relied upon disproven junk "science" and rejected both the Natural Law and the Equal protection Clause of the US Constitution.
The current Supreme Court has marriage, the role of parents in the education of their children, religious and economic liberty - and many other matters which could determine the future of freedom on its docket. This fact alone should bring every Pro-Life, Family and Freedom American to the ballot box on November 6, 2012. 'New-Rights' and the Future of Authentic Human Rights Is On the Ballot. Don't buy the nonsense that this election doesn't matter. It does - and we are responsible for our choice.

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr database of photography. Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly
from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos
are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos
(as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of
Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr
user and use Flickr Stats you
may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer).
Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them.
There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see
Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.
If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a)
make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by
Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at:
http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.
(c) Finally, you can
Banish Yourself
From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area
and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org. (a few people with weird characters in their user names may have had problems)Log In To Flickr Now
Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr photography database, allowing search by: tags(keywords); Flickr photography groups; Flickr users, their contacts, and favorites; free text; the Flickr Explore algorithm for interestingness. Flickr Hive Mind can also be an effective tool to identify photography with licenses that allow non-commercial (and sometimes) commercial use. Written by:
Nathan Siemers.

Any revenue generated through advertisement on this site is used only to cover the cost of keeping the site online, beyond that Fiveprime donates to charitable organizations (also, there are no ads on User pages).

iGoogle Now Supports Full Canvas Views
The new iGoogle theme just launched, which adds "full canvas views for gadget and support for full feed reading." In short, the new view places the tabs that you typically see at the top, under the search box, now on the left hand side. It then allows you to add gadgets that support canvas view, to the new iGoogle look, which gives some gadgets a higher usability factor.
Let me illustrate below:
Here is a before screen capture:
Here is an after screen capture (I don't personally see the new iGoogle, so thank you Keri for sending this my way):
As you can see, it opens up the page more. You can really see the impact by looking at how this works with the Google Reader Gadget. The Google Reader blog has screen captures illustrating this.
For a full list of canvas view enabled gadgets, see this list. This should be rolled out to all U.S. users any time now and then worldwide in the near future.

METRO NEWS BRIEFS: NEW JERSEY; Murder Charges Dropped After Video Clears Man
Published: June 11, 1998
ATLANTIC CITY— A murder indictment has been dropped against a Sparta man accused of strangling his girlfriend in a casino hotel room last August, the Atlantic City Prosecutor, Jeffrey S. Blitz, said.
Mr. Blitz declined to specify yesterday why he decided on Tuesday to drop the charges against Brian J. Blaine, 25. He said the investigation would continue.
Mr. Blaine's lawyer, Paul Lemole, said videotapes from Resorts International in Atlantic City showed his client in another part of the casino while the victim, Erin H. Fox of Newton, was stalked by a man who followed her into an elevator after an argument. ''They have the wrong man,'' Mr. Lemole said.

Reminder Saturday Kevin Randle On Paranormal Palace Radio (Warning Links)
Expand Messages
- Hey everyone don't forget my guest Saturday at 12:00pm cst will be Kevin Randle
For show time in your time zone visit
and check the orange bar on the page that says upcoming show just above Kevins picture
This show I think has much potential
Kevin D. Randle has, for more than thirty-five
years, studied the UFO phenomena in all its
various incarnations. Training by the Army as a
hrhiJupter pilot, intelligence officer and military
policeman, and by the Air Force as both an
intelligence officer and a public affairs officer, has
provided Randle with a keen insight into the
operations and protocols of the military, their
investigations into UFOs, and into a phenomenon
that has puzzled people for more than a century.
Randle's educational background is as diverse as
his military experience. As an undergraduate at the University of Iowa, he studied
anthropology. Graduate work included journalism, psychology and military science at
the University of Iowa, California Coast University and the American Military
University. He has both master and doctoral degrees in psychology and a second master
degree in the Art of Military Science.
During his investigations, Randle has traveled the United States to interview hundreds
of witnesses who were involved in everything from the Roswell, New Mexico crash of
1947, to the repeated radar sightings of UFOs over Washington, D.C. in 1952, to the
latest of the abduction cases. Randle was first writer to review the declassified Project
Blue Book files while they were still housed at Maxwell Air Force Base and before they
were redacted, among the first to report on animal mutilations and among the first to
report on alien abductions. He also was the first to report the alien home invasions and
among the first to suggest humans working with the aliens.
Randle has written extensively on UFOs beginning in 1973 with articles in various
national magazines. He had published many books about UFOs starting with The UFO
Casebook in 1989 and continuing with Crash in 2010.
Randle was away from his UFO studies while recalled to active duty with the Army in
Iraq from 2003 to 2004. He recently retired from the Iowa Army National Guard as a
lieutenant colonel.
He hosts a blog that can be found at www.KevinRandle.blogspot.com. His mailing
address is PO Box 10934, Cedar Rapids, IA 52410 and his email is Krandleg93@....

#14476 new Bug
annotate, default aggregation naming and filter annoyance
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Database layer (models, ORM)
|annotate, FieldError
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
Going straight to the point, if I do the following:
from django.db import models ... class Answer(models.Model): entry = models.ForeignKey(Question) ... qsa = Question.objects.annotate(answer_count=models.Count('answer')).filter(answer_count=0) qsb = Question.objects.annotate(models.Count('answer')).filter(answer__count=0)
qsa will be correctly evaluted, but qsb will raise a "FieldError: Cannot resolve keyword 'count' into field. Choices are ... answer_ _count".
Now, isn't this annoying? The error message is lying!

There's a slight problem here in that filter(answercount) could be referring to a default aggregate alias, or a field called count on the answer model. However, I think we can live with that ambiguity.
Patch requires tests.

This is still a problem for aggregates.
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import * >>> from django.db.models import * >>> User.objects.annotate(xyz=Count('groups')).aggregate(Max('xyz')) {'xyz__max': 13} >>> User.objects.annotate(Count('groups')).aggregate(Max('groups__count')) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<console>", line 1, in <module> File "/Users/mrmachine/django/db/models/query.py", line 331, in aggregate is_summary=True) File "/Users/mrmachine/django/db/models/sql/query.py", line 1000, in add_aggregate field_list, opts, self.get_initial_alias(), False) File "/Users/mrmachine/django/db/models/sql/query.py", line 1288, in setup_joins "Choices are: %s" % (name, ", ".join(names))) FieldError: Cannot resolve keyword 'count' into field. Choices are: id, name, permissions, user, groups__count
exclude(), filter(), values(), values_list() and order_by() all work, so I assume that aggregate() should as well.
Can we apply the same fix? Let me know if I should open a new ticket instead of re-opening this one.
Patch with updated test attached.
