Sentinel Fight Gear
Sentinel Fight Gear supplies the athletes and fans of kickboxing, submission wrestling and mixed martial arts with high quality training equipment and accessories. Our products include apparel (t-shirts and fight shorts) as well as training gloves and other equipment. Sentinel Fight Gear was created by a group of guys that love to train hard. Whether its submission wrestling, kickboxing or mixed martial arts we're there. For us it's not about the blood, sweat and tears; it's about facing the pain and overcoming our greatest obstacles - our own mental and physical limitations.
Extreme martial arts, as they are often called are an evolutionary step in an age old tradition where two people can test their stamina against one-another in a contest that involves speed, strength, and technical skill.
Although we are sometimes brawlers, we are not hooligans or delinquents, we are dedicated athletes who have found a way to express ourselves without words and test our mettle.
As a new company, we are also running a logo contest here on 99designs, so please check our profile and if you're keen add a design for that too!
For this project our target audience is Canadian Fighters and Canadian fans of extreme fighting sports, a sub-market is Canadian Armed Forces, Police and Emergency Response personnel who may also like the design you create.
1. There are a lot of fight-wear companies, most of them are selling designs with a predominantly U.S. feel to them. We want at least 1 shirt design that all of the Canadian fighters and fans of extreme fight sports will be proud to wear. Right now we are planning to print 3 designs, so there may be multiple prizes depending on what we see here.
2. We have one or two entries that we like, we're still open to new designs. One concept that we would like to see is a Beaver ground and pounding an eagle. With good artwork, this would be a winner (as mentioned multiple winners).
3. Color requirements: As mentioned we are planning to print 3 shirt designs, and of those we will be printing two of the designs on dark, either black or charcoal, so those designs will need to be suitable for that. The 3rd design will be printed on white. We will also be limiting the design to 3 colors. So please only submit concepts with up to 3 colors (it's ok to only have one color, we just don't want to have more than 3 - of course cost is the issue here. So if you can create a great shirt design with 1 color great! If it looks even better with a bit of color, then that's good too. We budget for up to 3 colors).
Don't forget to check out our logo contest too!

I can�t really explain it, but just feels more natural to study the Bible in Accordance to me. Perhaps it�s the speed, or just the way Accordance is laid out and how it works. Accordance helps (or even makes) me focus on the Bible more.

A venous skin ulcer is a shallow wound that typically happens on the lower leg. It is caused by slowed blood circulation called venous insufficiency.
To help your skin ulcer heal, your doctor may also remove dead tissue from the wound. This is called debridement.
With debridement, your doctor removes any dead or
poorly healing tissue from the surface of a skin ulcer.
Debridement methods include:

Blind Item #2
This B list mostly movie actress is back on the booze and cheating on her long time amazing girlfriend while the girlfriend is out of the country in Asia for a month. Lets not forget the cheatee who seems to be going out of her way to create a love triangle between two women while trying to stay in the closet. It's getting really tough to do and all those fans who want her together with a certain celebrity and didn't know she was gay are in for a shocker.

The Legislature is continuing its bipartisan efforts to expand access to affordable health care.
Your address should not determine the health care available to you. That is why the Legislature has worked in recent years to make mental health and disability services more consistent across the state. We recently took another step toward implementing a regional mental health and disability services system that will give Iowans access to critical services, regardless of where they live.
The Senate plan (SF 415) is based on recommendations of an interim committee tasked with analyzing the fiscal viability of the mental health and disability services redesign provisions the Legislature enacted in 2012. The bill, which has now received the stamp of approved from the Senate Appropriations Committee, would:
Article Photos
Sate Senator Steve Sodders
Authorize regions to provide mental health and disability services that research shows to be effective and efficient.
Ensure those currently eligible for county services remain eligible after the regions are formed.
Allow county services to continue this year while the new regions develop their service plans.
Establish new technology standards to improve reporting and make information more available to the public online.
Create a panel to recommend improvements for mental health and other programs for children.
The Senate plan invests $29.8 million over the next year to support local services and ensure Iowans get the care they need as we move through the transition to a regional system.
Senate File 415 now goes to the full Senate for debate.

New to LF. Proud owner of Crown Graphic, with a Speed on the way from auction. My question revolves around using roll film holders with various lenses. I have a 135/4.7 currently, but would like to get a 90mm and something around 210 as well. How do I know what portion of what I see in the optical viewfinder will be on the negative? I have read postings about making a new mask for the viewfinder. I assume this could be done with heavy cardboard as well as metal? There must be some formula for size [aperture] of mask versus lenses focal lengths--does anyone have any ideas?
If there is no such formula can anyone suggest apertures for a 135, 90 and 210 lense? My rollfilm use would be 6X9 size negatives
Happy Holidays and many thanks.

Hi Ramon
I answered a similar question a short time ago. It is about six questions below yours and called 'mask for viewer' poster Digimassa. I have placed several Graflex/Graflite manuals, etc. on my web site for anyone to use, the kicker is they are for the late model Speed and Crown with the rangefinder and viewfinder on the top of the camera. I will be happy to provide you a link if you own the late models similar to mine. Harry
P.S. Your rangefinder also has to work with different focal length lenses by using matching CAMS.

Thanks so much. From those postings I saw how to handle the 135 mm lenses. I was curious how to handle other lenses I might purchase. Seems like there is some sort of proportional relationship going on in your post, but not sure I completely understand.
College physics--35 yrs ago-- was not the bright spot on my grade sheet; it almost cost me admission to medical school. Perhaps that is why I am struggling here.
As an alternative, could one make a cardboard mask to put on the wire frame finder that pulls up from the lensboard area?Do I have to worry about distance from rear of lenses to plane of film in making such a mask for the framefinder???
Thanks, and Happy HOlidays to all.

I think you're going down the wrong road. When a Speed or Crown Graphic's rangefinder and viewfinder are properly tuned there is no sweeter camera to use! Some of my best shots were made using those finders (not the ground glass). Cardboard is out, One can buy masks for $10.00 or less on eBay, patiences is all it takes and searches for viewfinder masks in the LF section. Viewfinder Masks charts are on this web site, just do a search for it. Good Luck, Harry

Thanks so much for your patience with those of us "impaired"...I just bought my Crown and a roll film adapter; as I enjoy and ponder this thinking things out rather than shooting rolls of 35 mm to get a few good shots, my first worry was how do I see what I get when I switch from 4X5 to roll film? Particularly if I take pictures of people? Focusing was going to be my next worry when I started changing lenses--that can wait.
I did not have any luck searching for view mask tables using the site's search engine. I did discover in "Pacemaker Crown and Speed Graphic: instruction and reference manual" a table relating lenses (in inches) versus film size versus mask number on p.43. But how do I translate mask number into actual mask aperture to make one? Have not seen masks offered on EBAY after searching daily for about 3 weeks....Again, thanks!

Okay, Graflex search engine isn't the best way to go. From the front page of Graflex.org click 'Speed Graphic FAQ'. From the 'Table of Contents' page under 'Features' click 'Viewfinders'. Under Viewfinders 'Optical tube Viewfinder' click 'various masks' and you will find the tables.
eBay has a 'Save this search' function. eBay will notify you by email when new items appear in your saved search. Search for 'mask' in 'Large Format'. When the search results page appears look under 'Or try other search functions' and click 'Save this eaarch', then just follow the instructions. eBay will notify you by email for up to three saved searches.

When moving from 35mm to LF one of the things that needs changing is out wetware (way of thinking)
With 35mm we change lenses on a whim in seconds. this isn't true with LF particularly when using a rangefinder. Kalarts can be adjusted for almost any lens, but only one lens. Top rangefinders have cams but even changing lenses and cams takes minutes not seconds.
Also when shooting 35mm you have to crop in the camera, use every posssible square mm of film. With 4x5 that is so. There is no sin in cropping a 4x5 down to 3x4 particulary when you are on a cliff in Yosemite and that slightly longer lens is a half hour hike.
remember that most Newspaper photographers made their living with JUST ONE LENS!

Thanks to you both. Will try buying masks rather than making them. I am quite guilty of the sins you point out in not thinking properly about the move to Graflex/LF photography; perhaps "when in doubt, just step back a few feet and crop the negative" is a better approach....

Sleeveless frock with wooden buttons and Embroidery. Body base colors as shown below.
Fabric- 40's Interlock Knit.
- EZO free and bio-degradable colors & dyes.
- GOTS Certified.
Difference between Organic & Natural Cotton-
- When you see cotton products labelled as "natural", you are getting conventional cotton grown with large inputs of chemicals, pesticides, and herbicides to control weed growth.
- For organic produce the process starts at the stage of farming i.e. growing food /plants on farmland, which has been chemical and pesticide free for at least three years.
- Independent agency verifies that farmer and company meets the required standards. Agency provides farm, company with a certificate proving that the produce is "certified organic."
- Zeme Organics and entire supply chain is certified for production and handling of organic products.
Zeme or Žemė (pronounced as Zhe meh) means 'goddess of the earth' or 'earth mother' in Latvian and Lithuanian mythology. Accordingly, everything in nature that is born, grows and dies belongs to this earth mother, who protects and nourishes the planet.
Zeme as an organic clothing company was conceptualized in the spring of 2006 in San Francisco, California and was created in India, in December 2007 by Arati. While living in the beautiful city of San Francisco as a student, Arati got to learn about organic farming and furthered this interest in organic clothing by taking up an internship with a San Francisco based organic clothing company. Logically, the next step for Arati was to use her knowledge and passion for organic cotton to design and market organic clothes created in India through her own label. And thus, Zeme was born!
We offer organic clothing formen, women, infants and maternity. Each design has been pored over, persevered through and perfected. Our clothes are a 100% certified organic, and we use only biodegradable, EZO free dyes which are good for the planet and good for you.
Our products are made in India by companies who have Control Union certification and follow GOTS standard. Zeme Organics and its entire supply chain is certified for production and handling of organic products.
Our Mission: Offering and encouraging people to wear organic clothes is our way of contributing to help reduce ground water pollution and green house effect so that mother earth can breathe easily".

Trainer Rick Dutrow files lawsuit to overturn 10-year racing ban
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- Kentucky Derby-winning trainer Rick Dutrow has filed a federal lawsuit trying to overturn his 10-year ban from racing in New York for drug violations.
The lawsuit, filed this week in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn, says the 53-year-old Dutrow has been "irreparably harmed" by the New York State Racing and Wagering Board for what he says is effectively a lifetime ban. Dutrow claims racing officials engaged in "wrongful and malicious actions" against him. He's seeking $10 million in damages for lost earnings, punitive damages and an order lifting the ban.
Dutrow trained Big Brown to Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes wins in 2008. He recently tied for the training title with 110 victories at Aqueduct, his fourth title at the track where his stable is based. It was the ninth time in the last 10 years he was the leading or second-leading trainer.
"Any and every horse Dutrow becomes involved with during the 10 years his license is revoked ... disqualifies the horse from any racetrack throughout New York state," the civil court complaint says. "The order, in effect, also acts as a prohibition against Dutrow associating with any individuals who use the racetracks of New York state, including his family, who are connected to the racetracks."
Lee Park, a spokesman for the New York State Gaming Commission, the agency that succeeded the racing board, said Wednesday that they haven't been served with legal papers and declined to comment
Dutrow had unsuccessfully appealed the license revocation in state courts, with the punishment put on hold until the New York Court of Appeals in January declined to hear his latest appeal.
In October, that same court rejected his constitutional claim that his rights to a fair proceeding were violated by the appearance of bias by racing board Chairman John Sabini. Sabini was also an officer of the Association of Racing Commissioners International, which advocated revoking Dutrow's license.
The federal lawsuit claims Sabini and association officials acted in concert to ensure his license would be revoked, depriving him of due process.
The three-member state board cited infractions including syringes containing an analgesic and sedative found in Dutrow's desk and an analgesic found in the urine of his horse Fastus Cactus in November 2010 after it won at Aqueduct Racetrack. The board also fined him $50,000.
Dutrow told a hearing officer he didn't know how the syringes got into his desk. A blood test of Fastus Cactus didn't show any of the analgesic, and Dutrow's expert witness theorized that the urine test may have been contaminated.
When the board issued the ban in October 2011, Sabini said Dutrow's repeated violations and disregard for racing rules "eroded confidence in the betting public and caused an embarrassment throughout the industry."

Looking at picking one up this afternoon (WDBGXT0NBK) as my old lappy that was our media PC finally croaked.
Anyone have any input on how well it works over wi-fi and what custom firmware is available and decent? I love XBMC but happy to give it up for something new.
I heard someone throwing on something like couchpotato on it, which can be compiled from source etc and used to automate downloads of linux iso's off newsgroups.
As for how well it works, i'm not sure, so im going to watch this thread to see what people suggest because i'm a bit curious too.
I like xbmc but i've got some issues with it and plugins breaking (thanks youtube plugin breaking ruining stuff like day9 plugin with it)
I use it as is straight out of the box, I have two.
I stream wirelessly from media stored on desktop, no dramas, although I don't have much HD content to really test the wireless reliability. But both media players going and a laptop or two on wireless it works fine.
Getting the networking part set-up can be a little tricky though - but I must confess I'm pretty s*** at networking.
And you need to remember a few tricks like not to turn of the server pc while the WD TV is on, otherwise it can freeze and you need to reconnect and this can sometimes be pita, but otherwise they are great.
They are great units. Mine has the custom firmware on it now but I have a popcorn hour to replace it.
Going to sell my ATV2 as well. Never use it.

Works very well over Wi-Fi N. I can stream 720p Linux iso no worries over WiFi as long as it hasn't been encoded with crazy frame rate you should play without problems. If you have a NAS / Windows shared on your network, you just open the share, put in username/password and off it goes. I've got the QNAP NAS and they work together like a dream. Also you can plug your USB keyboard either wireless or wired into it (or other USB drives) so you can type in your user/pass for WiFi/Share. Save a s*** load of time.
Haven't come across a file that it couldn't play yet. Plus it's easy for the other half to use (+billion points) and also has other cool things like the ABC iView and various other plugins like Facebook etc. It can be slow to load these other services though so just be patient, iView takes a while to load but once it's loaded it played very well on my 50" TV (a bit grainy but very, very watchable). Also if you have logitech universal remote, it's also in the Database so you can basically program your remote to control it as well, use that and the macro now my other half basically never asks me how to turn on the home theatre - +eleventy billion points.
Best $100 I spent on home media centre that I don't have to f*** around with.
I've got one Hoggy, is has been super reliable. I run Custom Firmware: As it does help with a couple of minor things. The UI is probably the worst part about it, don't bother with UI 'mods' or anything as they are just a pain in the arse to set-up and keep maintained.
I think the WDTVLIVE can handle only up to 2TB with custom firmware. I think some >2TB drives work, but don't bet on it.
I copy stuff to a 2TB HDD attached to the WDTVLIVE several rooms away, I get about 1.7MB/s, good enough to stream HD media if I want.
Not a fan of my WDtv live hub thing whatever the name is. Having all sorts of issues with it so I'm going to abandon it and today I bought a Roku which has a Plex app for it, on top of being able to get all sorts of other tv channels so look forward to it arriving next week sometime.
i do same as mission. except it was easy to set up imo. straight out of the box and it worked.
i don't use any custom firmware I'm happy with what it offers.
wifi is excellent, in my house, i use it in the bedroom which is about 12 mtrs down a hall from the router.
I've got one for the living room, connected with a Ethernet cord to my computer until I feel like making some form of external storage. I haven't bothered with custom firmware, seems to work perfectly fine out of the box. I just use Serviio to stream.
Is the UI better these days?
ATM I'm running XBMC on ATV2, but its a bit slow with Eden and ATV3 isn't jailbroken yet so I wouldn't mind something a bit nicer. Already have PS3/360 but prefer XBMC (PS this is all about streaming from a NAS).
I run a WDTV. Only use it for 2 things ... stream movies/tv shows from the NAS and run my Spotify account through the HDMI inputs for the receiver. No drama's.
I've got an AC Ryan Playon! HD2. Works great.
Already have PS3/360 but prefer XBMC (PS this is all about streaming from a NAS).
I stream to 360 via WMC and use http://www.mediabrowser.tv/ for metadata and a better look.
Also using media-center-master to sort my s***.
I bought one just before Xmas from JB ($116) I've had no issues streaming (over wifi) all my 1080p MKVs from my media centre.
i really like them but i hate the build quality of the remote, feels uuber cheap.
i use the wd tv live hub which comes with a 1TB hdd, which i don't use, but the remote is soo much nicer.
i really like them but i hate the build quality of the remote, feels uuber cheap.
Seems about the same to any other remote to me ^dunno

..sitting here patiently waiting for someone to post a link to a 99c Android and/or iphone/ipad app that lets me flick my remotes away
Yes everyone here talked me into one and i'm glad they did
wife is watching QI now through the in-built iview app over 54g wifi, smooth as.
..sitting here patiently waiting for someone to post a link to a 99c Android and/or iphone/ipad app that lets me flick my remotes away
There is definitely an android app floating around.
But I dunno what you peeps are on about re the crappy remote. Sure it's not encrusted with diamonds but it's on par with any other remote I have. It is also good enough to operate the media player hidden behind the TV (no direct line of site).
errr edit is gay - I meant to say definitely iPhone app, and I assume there's an android app around.
Try this koopz

Yeah, Plex server runs on the PC and you access it through the WiiU web browser.
Anyone have any input on how well it works over wi-fi
Well I'd only go so far as ok. But then any wifi with HD content is pushing it.
I wish they would hurry up and add pandora back to the aussie firmware.
I read you can access your library but not play files back on your wii u. Is that true?
I read you can access your library but not play files back on your wii u. Is that true?
Just tested it, worked fine. From reading some forum threads, early on in the piece they had some trouble but looks pretty good now! Also awesome that you can playback on gamepad or TV.
Just saved $100 and got a new use for the U. Win. Also Plex has all the meta data download s*** I'm used to in XBMC and looks pretty nice too.
Get one anyway, think of the children! (When they want to play Wii and you want to watch a movie)
After some fiddling I got it to work and turns out it works really well! However since this is through the internet browser and not a dedicated app, does anyone know if it uses your internet connection to stream it? Because my remote viewing setting is set to 480p, 1.5mbps and some of my higher quality movies are noticeably artifacted as if they were a 700mb avi. I don't have the fastest internet either so this could be pointless for me if it does use my net.
After some fiddling I got it to work and turns out it works really well!
yeah... not wife friendly
You have yo set up the streaming quality koopz, I noticed that myself. Its in the settings somewhere.
amazingly even my tbox can see the plex server and playback media!
Seriously, I always thought of Plex as a wanky, latte-sipping Mac version of XBMC. It s**** all over XBMC and doesn't require any Apple hardware or software (except bonjour which is packaged with it).
Plex is and has been the pinnacle of front & back end media software for years. Been preaching this forever, few listen :(
Plex back-end is great, however XBMC front end is still the best. The only problem is that you need a beefy computer. Plex works great on the high power NAS drives from Synology and QNAP great idea if you are trying to save money on Power.
Also if you setup http://www.unblock-us.com/ on ya Plex server you will able to receive all the IPTV channels from America
I found XBMC playback and UI navigation over wireless unbearable TBH. Also lots of the keyboard bindings just don't make sense to me still after a million years :p
Also if you setup http://www.unblock-us.com/ on ya Plex server you will able to receive all the IPTV channels from America
Came back to post that if this works as advertised then its an awesome resource.
My Roku 2 XD arrived today and 15 minutes later had it set up with Netflix and a ton of other US based channels I won't be using for now. Couldn't be happier with it and really recommend it for the $78 it cost on amazon. Including my unblock.us account and netflix it costs me about $13 a month which i'm more than happy to pay. Comes with a plex app on the channel store which is a free install and works great so no complaints there either. Also very happy that even with my not so great internet netflix works without problems, though it does start off a bit fuzzy at first but it clears up to dvd quality after a minute or 2. Highly recommend this little box.
So there was a new update to the WD TV recently which adds support for a mobile app (Android and I think iOS). The app is pretty good; you can do keyboard input and control video play pretty easily - certainly better than with the other remote for keyboard input.
I find using it as a normal remote control not that good though because you have to look at the phone screen to see what you're pressing, as opposed to the real remote which you can sort of use without looking at it because of the extruded buttons.
Since this is still going figured I'd update!
Didn't bother with the WDTV in the end as the Plex server happily streams to my TBox, Wii U (playback on gamepad is nice!), and iPad, and when I get a Win8 hybrid tablet it will work there too, the Metro app is quite nice. I literally wouldn't have anything to plug it into if I had bought one now :)

Chemical records in teeth confirm elusive Alaska lake seals are one of a kind
Hundreds of harbor seals live in Iliamna Lake, the largest body of freshwater in Alaska and one of the most productive systems for sockeye salmon in the Bristol Bay region. These lake seals are a robust yet highly unusual and cryptic posse. Although how the seals first colonized the lake remains a mystery, it is thought that sometime in the distant past, a handful of harbor seals likely migrated from the ocean more than 50 miles (80 kilometers) upriver to the lake, where they eventually grew to a consistent group of about 400. These animals are important for Alaska Native subsistence hunting, and hold a top spot in the lake's diverse food web.Read more

In rural communities across the tropics, a parasitic disease called schistosomiasis that is carried by freshwater snails currently infects more than 220 million people, rivaling malaria in its prevalence. Capable of residing in an infected human for more than 30 years, the Schistosoma parasite can cause debilitating and often-fatal health complications, including liver failure, bladder cancer, and an increased risk of AIDS. An estimated 280,000 people in Africa alone die each year from the disease. Despite 50 years of medical intervention and the availability of a relatively inexpensive and effective drug, the disease has stubbornly resisted eradication efforts, largely due to the ease with which the parasite reinfects its human hosts.Read more

Big-time Hollywood producer Bob Weinstein listed his 12,000 square-foot shoreline mansion last month, asking $32 million for the home, which sits on a little more than 3 acres.
While the home is 97 years old, it's fully updated after what Coldwell Banker is describing as "a top to bottom museum quality renovation." And it's not just the Louvre-like details that set the home apart (check out that molding!), there's also 100 feet of stone terrace and 440 feet of shoreline, including its own sandy beach, stone peer and deepwater mooring.
We've got some preliminary photos for you to peruse here so you can take a peek behind the curtain at the gilded age gem. And don't sweat it, we'll have more on this six-bedroom super home in the coming weeks, including its solarium and nine fireplaces.
Weinstein, 58, has a long career in Hollywood with credits as executive producer on films as diverse as Pulp Fiction, Shakespeare in Love, Scary Movie and The King's Speech. His brother, Harvey Weinstein, lives in nearby Westport.

It happens every four years, and it's so lame.
Every World Cup brings heightened interest in soccer, but every World Cup we also have to listen to ignorant talk radio guys who don't get it and think it's clever to make fun of it.
I'm used to it. I've heard these silly rants for more than 30 years. It doesn't matter to the haters that the popularity of soccer in this country has relentless momentum, growing every year. They think they're hilarious poking fun at a game they don't understand.

Brooklyn, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Youssou Ndoye led a balanced St. Bonaventure attack with 19 points and 10 rebounds as the Bonnies clipped La Salle, 82-72, to reach the quarterfinals of the Atlantic 10 Tournament.
Marquise Simmons hit 7-of-8 from the field for 15 points and Charlon Kloof had 14 points with six assists for the Bonnies (17-14), who got at least seven points from all seven players that took the floor.
Jerrell Wright netted a game-high 26 points and pulled down nine rebounds for La Salle (15-16), which advanced to the Sweet 16 last season before losing to eventual West Region champion Wichita State. Tyreek Duren donated 15 points with Steve Zack contributing 11 points and 11 boards.
Ndoye and Simmons combined to lead St. Bonaventure to a 10-3 lead early on. The Bonnies led throughout the half and took a 42-34 advantage into the locker room.
La Salle trailed 53-46 when a pair of Duren layups highlighted a 6-0 surge to get back within one near the midpoint of the second half. Jordan Gathers then hit two free throws as the Bonnies responded with a 5-0 spurt of their own.
Kloof's jam with just under two minutes to play made it 76-69, and St. Bonaventure got enough stops down the stretch to hang on.
St. Bonaventure will take on top-seeded Saint Louis in the quarterfinals.

VOICES: Venezuelan Americans fight for our attention
MIAMI — Sometimes, when Emily Bello-Pardo tries to inform people in the USA about the brutal crackdowns on protesters in her native Venezuela, they admit they have no idea what she's talking about.
Some say they've heard about something happening down there in Venezuela. Maybe they read about it.
"It can be frustrating," Bello-Pardo says through a forced smile.
Perhaps the most frustrating thing for the 23-year-old master's student at Florida International University is that she's not alone in her uphill battle.
Almost every day, Venezuelan Americans across the country hold demonstrations, rallies, candlelight vigils or anything else they can think of to get Americans to care about the month-long protests in Venezuela that have left more than 25 dead and a country in turmoil. Protesters are upset over widespread scarcity of basic goods — from toilet paper to cornmeal — and rising unemployment that has left the country's economy flailing.
When President Obama visited a Miami high school to sell his new education budget, hundreds of Venezuelan Americans lined up outside the school, urging him to take action. Restaurants collect food and emergency medical supplies to send to protesters.
Saturday, Venezuelans staged a coordinated global vigil, from U.S. cities, including Miami, New York, Atlanta, Houston and San Francisco, to Spain, Italy and other countries.
But while global leaders are focused on Russia's aggression in Ukraine and the missing Malaysia Airlines flight dominating American news broadcasts, many Venezuelan Americans say they can't get anyone to listen.
Ernesto Ackerman, 63, a Venezuela native who became a U.S. citizen in 2000, says he's spent so much time organizing demonstrations around Miami that his wife is starting to wonder when he's going to get back to his day job, running a medical devices company.
"The entire Venezuelan community is activated," Ackerman says. "But the national media is not paying attention. Don't they understand that what's happening in Venezuela is genocide? When the Americans understand, we'll get more help."
Bello-Pardo doesn't have as much time to spare. After graduating with a double-major from FIU last year, she's in the middle of her master's courses, is the captain of the university's debate team and works for Voto Joven, a group that gets young Hispanics involved in politics. When you meet her, she presents you with a business card. "I print them myself," she says.
She has filled every moment of her free time advocating for her native country. She helped organize a forum at FIU to educate her classmates about the Venezuelan protests. She appeared on a TV station to discuss the latest developments and speaks to anybody she comes across about the situation.
Though the lack of coverage and interest has been disheartening, Bello-Pardo channels her inner optimist and sees "an opportunity" to educate Americans.
"It makes me sad. But sometimes, opportunity is frustrating," she says. "Protracted conflicts like these, they usually cause people to lose interest. But this is the most crucial time we've seen for change, the biggest opportunity we've had in 50 years. If we don't get that change now, it could be a dark future for Venezuela."
She marvels at the work done by protesters in Venezuela, who have put their lives and jobs on hold to march almost daily against the government led by Nicolás Maduro. She says that no matter how difficult it is, she and other Venezuelan Americans will continue their fight for the protesters.
"We're the voice for all of them," she says.

Editor's note: This piece is part of a series of "city smackdowns" pitting rival cities against each other and letting you decide which one's best. Check back Thursday for an equally passionate argument for Portland, then visit CNN iReport to defend your city of choice!
(CNN) -- Two weeks ago, I flew back to Seattle from Atlanta. Immediately after stepping off the plane, I could feel it: home.
The fresh air hits you like a freight train. Technology is everywhere. Hipsters ironically drink coffee. Recycling bins span as far as the eye can see -- and I hadn't even left the airport yet. Driving into Seattle is like floating through a dream: mountains to the right, glistening water to the left.
Hands down, Seattle is the most gorgeous city in America (I may be slightly biased). Yes, we do get a little bit of rain -- an average of 155 days a year, if you want to get specific -- but when the sun comes out, you can see why Seattle is called the Emerald City.
The scenery
First off, have you checked out our needle? At its highest point, the Space Needle reaches 605 feet. From the observation deck, you can enjoy stunning views of the mountains, Puget Sound and the Seattle skyline. Grab some fresh seafood from the SkyCity revolving restaurant while taking in the landscape.
Now, Portland, we think your Mount Hood is adorable, but come on: Mount Rainier is punch-you-in-the-face awe-inspiring. This 14,000-foot volcano isn't just pretty to look at; it's also is an outdoor enthusiast's dream. In Seattle, you are just 54 miles from skiing, rock climbing, camping and hiking. For the not faint of heart, the Wonderland Trail in Mount Rainier National Park circumnavigates the mountain and takes an average of 10 to 14 days to complete.
If water is your thing, Seattle is nestled between Puget Sound and Lake Union. Take a ferry ride out to one of the numerous islands scattered through the sound. Or, if you prefer, a 45-minute boat ride will land you in Tillicum Village on Blake Island, where you can dine on a traditional Native American salmon bake followed by a cultural show inspired by the Coast Salish tribes.
Can you hear the music?
Seattle is the birthplace of grunge. Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden spawned an entire era of flannel shirts, unkempt facial hair and teen angst. But the music roots run deeper here. Hey Portland, have you heard of Seattle native Jimi Hendrix? If you care to pay your respects to the iconic 1960s rock star, you can take a short drive to Greenwood Memorial Park in Renton, Washington.
To further educate you on music, the Experience Music Project is a must-see Seattle attraction. The eye-catching building, designed by Frank Gehry, houses numerous music exhibitions, an interactive sound lab and a state of the art concert venue. Guitar enthusiasts will particularly enjoy Guitar Gallery: The Quest for Volume.
If you care to hear some live music, Bumbershoot, the yearly outdoor music festival, is guaranteed to satisfy your ears. Or, for a year-round affair, stop on by Neumos Crystal Ball Reading Room to sample some awesome punk and indie rock music.
Flying fish and more
Want to see fish fly? Stop on by Pike Place Market and make sure to look out for a Copper River Salmon flying over your head. The fishmongers at the world-famous market are skilled in the art of tossing fish ordered by customers.
Pike Place Market was founded in 1907 and is one of the oldest open-air, public farmers markets in the United States. But there's more to this market than just the amazing, locally grown food. Wonderful restaurants, unique shops, the Seattle Aquarium and eccentric buskers really make the trip down to Elliott Bay worth your while.
And if you're wiped out from all that shopping, walk across the street to the original Starbucks to grab some java. Speaking of coffee, did I mention that Juan Valdez has a time share here? You can't swing a laptop in this town without hitting a coffee stand that features tons of flavors, roasts and a plethora of options for the caffeine junkie.
Sorry Portland, but as much as we love our sister to the south, the fact is that Seattle has everything we could want and more. Between the atmosphere, Bill Gates and parks bursting with greenery, it really is the gem of the Pacific Northwest.

A friend told me that since I could not decide whether to choose a superzoom or a DSLR, I might as well choose a camcorder. He also mentions that modern camcorders have nice features and fit in just between a superzoom and a DSLR.
So, I would like to ask the community experts in photography whether a camcorder is really that good in terms of quality of image/video, good or even great zooming capabilities, and also at producing good video/image at night.

I hope I can write in English for today at least. I was studying Japanese on Memrise when someone suggested Toki Pona as a hobby. I do find it almost relaxing compared to where I am with Japanese, like a holiday. But I suspect that I will need someone to speak it with before very long and wanted to introduce myself.
I am a retired man living alone in a college town, taking Biological Anthropology at the university. I only speak English and a very small amount of Japanese and even less Spanish, Norwegian, and Mandarin. I find languages very difficult, but then I only started these last few years.
This is long enough already. I hope to learn a lot here, but please be patient with me.

This highly educational Week in Gaming Apps is brought to you by the letter T, the number 10,000,000, the sounds of jazz and the culture of Mexico.
It's been the busiest Week in Gaming Apps ever, at least for yours truly. I've been steeping myself in Windows Phone 7, Android and iPhone games over the past few weeks, so whenever someone comes up short for a game to feature in our Gaming App of the Day segment, I'm up to bat!
I got to pick out three of this week's five gaming apps, playing a little pool and feeling bad about the plight of the cartoon animals, desperately wishing I were playing more 10000000 all the while.
But it's not all me. Kate took a trip to a Mario-tinged Mexico, and Kirk took a look at a game that was pretty much custom-made for him.
Can I pull off the five-day sweep next week? God I hope not.
If you have a suggestion for an app for the iPhone, iPad, Android or Windows Phone 7 that you'd like to see highlighted, let us know.

Event Theme
When planning an event, one of the first and most important things to consider is the theme. An event theme should coincide with the reason for the event. The theme should be something representative of the guest of honor.

For the past month, pink ribbons have been everywhere — along with bracelets, shoes, t-shirts, even pink KFC buckets.
Yet for all this colorful breast cancer awareness, somehow we're still not talking about one of the key things we can do to prevent the disease: stop eating, drinking and breathing cancer-causing chemicals.
Sounds like a good idea, right? Scientists tell us there's plenty of evidence linking chemical exposure with cancer. Astonishingly, a conversation about this kind of prevention simply wasn't part of the mix.
There were a few notable exceptions. Our friends at Breast Cancer Action, The Breast Cancer Fund and Clean Water Action all made a strong case for moving beyond awareness toward prevention. But otherwise the issue was largely ignored — despite a recent report from the President's Cancer Panel finding that Americans are exposed to too many pesticides and other chemicals that cause cancer.
The Cancer Panel scientists also found that previous estimates of the role environmental contaminants play in causing cancer were much, much too low. They reported startling long-term impacts of exposure, like the fact that girls exposed to DDT during puberty were 5x more likely to have breast cancer in middle age.
They were so concerned by their findings that they went way out on a limb and actually called on President Obama to do something about it, urging him to "use the power of your office to remove carcinogens and other toxins from our food, water and air."
Sadly, the White House appears to be ignoring the Panel's recommendations.
This year's presidential proclamation marking National Breast Cancer Awareness Month includes not a word on the role of environmental contaminants in causing the disease.
"Our sense is that the recommendations in a remarkable report are being actively ignored by the Administration," writes PAN board member Dr. Ted Schettler and his colleagues Dr. Sandra Steingraber and Dr. Richard Clapp after their meeting with White House staff about the report. "A great opportunity to prevent cancers through better environmental protections may be lost."
Meanwhile, the science keeps rolling in. Here are just a handful of recent, interesting examples:
- University of California's Breast Cancer & Chemicals Policy Project published Pathways to Breast Cancer, a report proposing new ways to evaluate how chemicals contribute to breast cancer.
- 50,000 women have enrolled in the national "Sister Study," which tracks women whose sisters have had breast cancer and evaluates the contribution of both genetic and environmental factors to the disease.
- Scientists in the UK reported that cancer was virtually nonexistent in the ancient world, based on examination of almost a thousand mummies from Egypt and South America.
- The Breast Cancer Fund's annual State of the Evidence report (mentioned here a couple of weeks ago) looks carefully at the latest science about the links between chemical exposures and breast cancer.
We all know the stakes are high. One of every 8 women can expect to develop breast cancer. And while survival rates are improving, it's still the leading cause of death among women in their late 30s to early 50s. As anyone who's life has been touched by the disease knows, anything we can do to prevent the devastation of cancer should be a national priority. Now.
Next week I'll travel to Washingon DC to deliver PAN's petition urging Mr. Obama to listen to his cancer scientists. Thanks so very much to all of you who signed on; we'll let you know how it goes.
As I sit here at the San Diego Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico with a room full of people all diagnosed with cancer of one variety or another, I am overwhelmed and inspired all at the same time. We are here because we know that we have cancer. We are here because we know we need to get rid of it. We are here because the places we come from - mostly Canada and the US, though Venezuela is represented as well - don't have a lot of options for us. I know that keeping cancer out of our bodies in the first place should be the goal. But for those of us unlucky ones (as Kristin points out, one in 8 will get this junk in our life times) who've already got it, we've got to pull out all the stops to manage it. What we know from the work of PANNA is how cancer enters our bodies. And we also know from PANNA that this crap is preventable. All we have to do now is convince the powers that be to just knock it off, knock it out. From my perspective, it's simple. Just stop the insanity.
The San Diego Clinic sees cancer as a multifaceted problem. And they have collected many solutions from around the globe to manage cancer. It is possible. There are options. We have to keep working. Those of us lucky enough to know there are solutions are going to come out ahead. I just wish we didn't have to deal with it in the first place.

Rob Cherny is lead developer for user experience consultants NavigationArts.
The World Wide Web Consortium's statement last month that it was retiring the XHTML 2 Web markup language in favor of HTML 5 sent ripples across Web development waters. The declaration solidified HTML 5 as the official future of Web development based on open standards. In the process, HTML 5, with its plethora of new features, was certified as the first legitimate challenger to the proprietary solutions of Adobe Flash, Microsoft Silverlight, and Sun JavaFX. What, you don't find a new version of a Web markup language that exciting? It's true, some of the new elements and tags defined in the core HTML 5 working draft are probably in the boring-but-important category -- such as new semantics in tags including nav, header, section, aside, and footer, among others. But there's a lot to intrigue anyone doing or in charge of Web development:
- Native plug-in-free audio and video via tags
- A Canvas element for drawing, dynamic text, and animation
- Drag-and-drop event data model
- Cross-document and cross-domain messages
- Ajax navigation history (your Back button will work!)
- Geolocation
- Network status awareness (online/offline)
- Enhanced data types for form controls
- A rich text-editing model
- Local storage in client-side databases
- Web worker threads
These each solve some specific problems, but, more important, they bring HTML, JavaScript, and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) development on par with many key Flash and Silverlight features. Why does this matter? Openness. Before many of these HTML 5 features, there was no real open alternative to Adobe and Microsoft's closed solutions. HTML 5 changes this by supporting open standards that expose underlying technologies, enabling integration, innovation, and development of more complex software and services.
Why Openness Matters
Admittedly, proprietary solutions can offer great innovation, but they also add barriers to use and frequently limit their development to usage of specific development tools. This is because only select experts know how the technology works, and only proprietary tools can generate the required files, making vendor lock-in a reality.
5 New Tools: HTML 5 Adds These Key Features
Canvas -- JavaScript to create Web graphics
Location API -- Interface to location data from GPS or other sources
Video Element -- Easier to embed video on Web pages
AppCache -- Allows Web sites to launch offline
Web Workers -- Background threads that speed execution
Conventional wisdom once held that different browser vendors' proprietary features and interpretations had made consistency in Web development nearly impossible to implement. This has changed. Since the early 2000s, most Web browsers have supported the W3C's open standards in a much more uniform way, making development more straightforward. You only need to look at how users rapidly adopted Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, and Opera to see how standards compliance leads to developer and user converts. Collectively, these browsers already have implemented large parts of the HTML 5 feature set that are, in most cases, enabled without proprietary plug-ins. This is the Open Web at work.

Washington at the Commander Hotel in Cambridge
A couple of decades later, Frank A. K. Boland was the hotel's owner. He had once been an attorney representing the American Hotel Association. (He had been disbarred in 1909 for bribing a court clerk and reinstated in 1912; that seems have to have been a normal way of doing business in New York then.)
I haven't found out exactly when, but at some point a visitor told Boland that a bronze reproduction of Jean-Antoine Houdon's statue of Washington was available in Somerville. The T. F. McGann & Sons Company was offering it for sale, advertising in School Executive and School Management and Institution. Obviously, the firm thought that it would be appropriate for a school.
Boland went to see the statue. It had turned black from standing out in a storage yard since 1932. The McGann company had made it for Manchester, Connecticut, but "financial disagreement resulted in final cancellation of the order." Perhaps the Depression had also been part of the problem.
Boland bought the statue and mounted it on the Commander Hotel's lawn on "a stately base of rough finish granite." With its base, it stands 6'10" tall and weighs 1,034 pounds. Every so often it gets to wear a Bruins, Celtics, Red Sox, or Patriots jersey during a championship run.
In 1949 Boland started a campaign to commemorate the Washington Elm, which had fallen twenty-six years before. Artist Leonard Craske was already at work on a bas-relief showing Washington reviewing troops under a tree, much like Washington Elm images going back over a century. But by that point historians had turned against the elm legend. The final text on Craske's monument says nothing about the tree:
General George Washington, having taken command of the Army of the United Colonies at Cambridge, inspects the troops near this spot on the fourth day of July 1775.Undaunted, Boland planned an unveiling on 3 July 1950, the traditional day of the Washington Elm ceremony. At noon on 2 May he led a committee of Cambridge notables to meet with President Harry Truman and invite him to the unveiling. The Truman Library shows the President's schedule for that day. Corbis offers a photograph of the committee giving the President a relic of the fallen elm. Boland is the man looking happily at the camera.
The young man at left who looks like an office intern was Rep. John F. Kennedy, who had arranged the meeting. Truman didn't come, but Kennedy was one of the main speakers at the ceremony that July.
(Photograph above by Wally Gobetz, available via Flickr through a Creative Commons license. Thanks to Ed Guleserian, current owner of what's now the Sheraton Commander Hotel, for a copy of Boland's press release about the statue.)

Semi Driver Involved in Fatal Crash
LaPorte County-Indiana State Police responded to three vehicle crash, involving two semis, which closed I-94 for approximately two hours, and killed one of the semi drivers.
Preliminary investigation by Trooper Rogelio Escutia revealed that at approximately 2:01 a.m., a 2007 International semi pulling a refrigerated box trailer, driven by George A. Leeth Senior, 37 of Hammond, was on 911 calling in an alleged drunk driver. Leeth described the vehicle, which was later identified as a 2006 Audi station wagon, as driving erratically, off and onto the road, from lane to lane, with speeds varying from 25-60 mph east bound on I-94. The Audi stopped in the middle of the right lane at the 43 mile marker (this is approximately 2 ½ miles west of the Indiana/Michigan State line) and the driver got out of his vehicle and began to walk around.
Leeth, who had activated his four way emergency hazard lights as he was talking to 911, stopped behind the Audi and got out of his semi to talk to the Audi driver. Leeth advised the Audi driver, later identified as Howard B Gutenstein, 47 of Valparaiso, to get back inside his car because of traffic in the area. As Leeth started to climb back into his semi, a second semi hit Leeth's semi pushing it slightly into the rear of the Audi.
The second semi, a 2006 Freightliner pulling a tanker, driven by Steven Lunn, 52 of Olympia Fields, Illinois, was east bound in the right lane when he swerved to the right to avoid Leeth's semi. Lunn's semi hit the rear of Leeth's trailer causing the cab to come to rest in the right lane and the tanker on the outer shoulder. Lunn's semi was owned by Langer Transport out of Jersey City, New Jersey. He was loaded and placarded for Ethanol. No load was lost or compromised.
Lunn had to be extricated from his semi and pronounced dead at the scene by the LaPorte County Coroner of massive trauma. FAMILY HAS BEEN NOTIFIED.
Leeth was taken to Saint Anthony's Hospital in Michigan City for non-life threatening injuries. Leeth's semi was owned by Fore Transportation out of Harvey, Illinois, and loaded with perishable food. No load was lost.
Gutenstein was not injured. Further investigation revealed he had a blood alcohol content of .13%; Gutenstein was taken to LaPorte County Jail where he was charged with Operating While Intoxicated causing Death, a Class C Felony and Endangering, a Class A Misdemeanor.
Traffic was diverted off I-94 at State Road 421 until approximately 4:00 a.m. when they re-opened the left lane; all lanes were re-opened at 7:00 a.m.

All criminal defendants are to be presumed innocent until, and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

Last year at E3, Qualcomm didn't have their own booth or event, but they did partner with Sony Ericsson to promote Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors and to focus on the gaming aspects of Qualcomm's chips. This was done very well with the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, which had a slide out game pad.
This year around at E3, Qualcomm decided to have their own satellite event where they would try to break a Guiness World record for mobile gaming on a tablet. The goal was to go ahead and pre-qualify the gamers to make sure they were capable of sustaining more than 24 hrs of gaming and simultaneously make sure that they would all be competitive enough as to prolong the record to a ridiculously long period of time.
Qualcomm set the Guinness World Record for the Longest Mobile Gaming Marathon on a Tablet at exactly 4:37 p.m. PST with a time of 26h 00m and 02s of gaming. The Snapdragon Gaming World Record Challenge pitted 32 gamers against each other to play on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 (supplied by AT&T) powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors.
The winner that obtained 1st place was the one that outlasted the rest of his competitors and was able to continuously play for the entire period of time and had to play one of five games from one of Qualcomm's gaming partners.
· GT Racing: Motor Academy (Gameloft)
· Virtua Tennis (Sega)
· Galaga: Special Edition (NAMCO Bandai)
· Fruit Ninja (Halfbrick)
· Blood & Glory (Glu)
Interestingly enough, the winner was actually Efren Ballestamon from Chula Vista, CA which is a suburb of San Diego, California the same place where Qualcomm is actually headquartered. In order to make it to the E3 event, he had to drive at least 2 hours to get there without traffic (speaking from personal experience).
For playing for 26 hours, Mr. Ballestamon (aged 26) won $20,000 as well as a Samsung Galaxy Tab. And as you can see (above) second and third place didn't leave empty-handed either. We wonder how many times he had to recharge the tablet within those 26 hours… and we won't talk about personal hygiene.

NEW YORK, July 20 (UPI) -- New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg called on President Obama and his likely Republican challenger Friday to support stricter gun control laws.
Bloomberg, making his weekly appearance on John R. Gambling's radio show on WOR in New York hours after a mass shooting in Colorado, called on the presidential contenders to "stand up" and say what they plan to do about gun violence, The Hill reported.
"There are so many murders with guns every day, it's just got to stop," Bloomberg said. "And this is a real problem. No matter where you stand on the Second Amendment, no matter where you stand on guns, we have a right to hear from both of them concretely, not just in generalities -- specifically what are they going to do about guns?"
Bloomberg, a Democrat who switched to the Republican Party when he ran for mayor in New York, is now an independent.
Both Obama and Romney issued statements condemning the Colorado shootings but did not talk about policy. A 24-year-old man, James Holmes of Aurora, allegedly opened fire in a movie theater during the first showing of the new Batman movie early Friday, killing at least 12 people and wounding 38.
"The president believes we need to take common-sense measures that protect the Second Amendment rights of Americans while ensuring that those who should not have guns under existing laws do not get them," Obama spokesman Jay Carney said.
After the shootings in Tucson in 2011 that killed six people and left U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., with severe head injuries, Obama refrained from using the massacre to call for more restrictions on guns, USA Today said.

Performance Metrics
A version of this article appears in the July/August 2008 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
July 01, 2008
It is time to completely rethink the way we measure home and building efficiency. We hear a lot these days about buildings being certified as "green" or about major infrastructure changes intended to make them "efficient." But truly conserving energy is a matter of results—it means analyzing the daily performance metrics, tweaking the building functions as needed, and rewarding those individuals who are actually driving the building to peak operating efficiency. Whether we are talking about a single-family house, apartments in multifamily buildings, or a large corporate facility, in each case a particular individual (or team) is making decisions about the HVAC system. It might be a homeowner with limited knowledge, an HVAC contractor, a building manager, or a facilities director. In each case, it is important for that person or that team to see himself, or themselves, as active drivers steering the home or building daily toward specific goals and seeking to reach defined key performance metrics. This is not a passive activity in which you can fall asleep at the wheel. Whoever does it must be vigilant in tweaking the system daily toward peak operating efficiency. For years, single-family homes have used ...

Pack small luxuries
"We took special hot sauce and some whiskey for us, and for Oscar, fruit pouches and treats. You don't want to feel like you're roughing it too much; the idea is to have fun."
Stay visible
"Have lots of lights on your bike. We put lights on the back of Oscar's trailer and kept them on throughout the day—whenever we were riding."
Give 'em what they want
"It's important to continue giving kids liquids, even if the drinks they want aren't so healthy. Also, snacks can kind of save the day. You do not want a superhungry kid on your hands."
Keep children occupied
"Oscar had a little canteen and access to a couple of toys. (But that sometimes backfired if he dropped something and got upset.)"
Stimulate them
"When it comes down to it, you're asking a kid to wear a helmet and stay strapped down for hours, so you have to make them excited about their surroundings."
Be flexible
"The strange thing about traveling with a baby or child is that they call the shots and determine the trip for you."
Believe in your kids
"One thing I learned from the trip was to give Oscar the benefit of the doubt. We were ready to cancel the trip at any time, but he was such a good sport."

"The Book of Mormon" added to Denver Center's 2013 Season
"The Book of Mormon" is set to return to Denver October 2013, said the co-creators of the Tony Award-amassing musical about two young Mormons sent on a mission to Africa.
