How far ahead is the All Blacks
Oct 27, 2016
How far ahead is the All Blacks On the 22nd of October, the New Zeeland All Blacks became the 1st 1st tear nation in the world to win 18 games in a row. Their brand of rugby is admired around the world and they don't look like losing anytime soon. In today's post, we look at just how far ahead they are and what other teams need to do to catch up. For today's comparison, we look at the combined data of the last two weeks of the Championship Rugby tournament. Our attacking criteria will be
What is wrong with Springbok rugby - a look at stats that you have not seen before

What is wrong with Springbok rugby a look at stats that you have not seen before During the last two weeks, it has been in the news quite a bit that the springbok management believes they are on the right track. The general public who watched the same game is dumbfounded as Toeties' troops has failed to win a big game for the 5th appearance in a row. In this article, we will look at what the stats tells us about our current herd of springboks. In 2014 Robbie Fleck told coaches that the WP
Gainline Success per Lineout
Dec 06, 2015
We have been trying for a while now to measure the the gain-line success of a team from their 1st phase, until the team looses possession. I must say the results came as a bit of a shock. I would have thought that a ball thrown to the middle of a lineout would result in a better gainline success than a ball thrown to the front and worse than a ball thrown to the back. While this is not entirely untrue the margin is not worth the risk. In 2015 there was no difference in the gain-line success of

Nine Muses Books is proud to present: Episode 11: The Agitated Elocutionist: A Lizzie Borden, Girl Detective Radio Play. In this episode we bring you something completely different: an old-fashioned radio play adapted from The Agitated Elocutionist, one of Richard Behrens' Lizzie Borden Girl Detective Mysteries. Although set in an authentic 1870s Fall River, MA, with a teenage Lizzie Borden and her real family members, the rest is pure quirky fiction wrapped around an intriguing mystery. In the world of the girl detective, and many years before her infamous arrest and trial for the murders of her father and stepmother, Lizzie Borden pursued a career as a private consulting detective, and as you are about to hear, in The Agitated Elocutionist, she matches wits with a pompous elocutionist and her devoted man-servant. You have met Lizzie Borden before, but never like this! This radio play is a departure from our usual history-based podcasts, and it is just plain FUN! The quirky characters of Richard Behrens' imagination come to life right from the pages of his delightful and intriguing mysteries. The actors are superb and hilarious, and the sound effects beautifully capture the Victorian-era flavor of the story. The e-book version of The Agitated Elocutionist is available as a free download at Amazon.com

'Midnight in Paris' review: past perfect
Midnight in Paris
Comedy. Starring Owen Wilson, Marion Cotillard, Rachel Mc-Adams, Kathy Bates. Directed by Woody Allen. (PG-13. 100 minutes. At Bay Area theaters.)
Was there ever really a golden age? And if so, did people know it at the time? Are people even capable of recognizing a golden age when they're in the midst of one? For Woody Allen, whose musical and cultural tastes run to the 1920s and '30s, these questions have probably fueled countless daydreams. And now out of all that rumination comes "Midnight in Paris," a movie that's loving and wistful and often hysterically funny.
Romance is built into the design. A screenwriter, who has always been nostalgic, visits modern-day Paris and falls through a ripple in time: On a Paris street, a clock strikes midnight, and a 1920s taxicab drives up. F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald are inside, and they take him to a party. Though at first the writer thinks these are faux Fitzgeralds and that he's at a costume party, he soon realizes that this is the real deal. He is surrounded by the music and styles he loves and is mingling with his idols and artistic heroes.
Our hero's dislocation keeps the movie as light as it needs to be. Meeting celebrities can be awkward enough, but meeting legends of the past - the eagerness to please would be overwhelming. Yet always there is an edge of poignancy, too, because you are looking at the '20s through the eyes of a modern person, as a world that is, by definition, past. The past is always romantic because it's gone, just as the future is always frightening because you're gone.
There's an idea about Paris at work here, as well. Allen takes the notion of streets alive with the past and makes it literal in "Midnight in Paris," so that everything that has ever happened in this city never goes away. It's alive with parallel worlds - which is sometimes how we feel when we visit great cities like Paris, Rome or New York.
Gil (Wilson) finds himself able to go back and forth between his own time and the '20s, and so we keep feeling the contrast. In the 21st century, he is engaged to an awful spoiled brat played without compromise by Rachel Mc-Adams. Meanwhile, in his nightly '20s rambles, he is falling in love with Adriana (Marion Cotillard), who is having an affair with Picasso. As was the case with Penélope Cruz in "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," Woody Allen brings out, for the first time in an American film, the fire and allure Cotillard has shown in her European work.
In the meantime, in between all the longing and wistfulness, this movie is sidesplitting because Allen gets to tap into an inexhaustible source of comedy: Whenever he wants a laugh, or 10 laughs, he just introduces another writer or painter and plays to our expectations. Every scene, for example, involving Ernest Hemingway (Corey Stoll) is a scream, because Allen has him talk the way Hemingway wrote. There is even a Man Ray joke here. And if you know Luis Buñuel's "The Exterminating Angel," you'll fall out of your chair when Gil starts feeding him movie ideas.
Adrien Brody shows up as the young Salvador Dalí - good casting. Alison Pill looks very much like Zelda, though Tom Hiddleston is too tall for Scott Fitzgerald, who was just a little bigger than Woody Allen. But Kathy Bates is just right as Gertrude Stein, as businesslike and motherly as you'd want her to be.
-- Advisory: Lots of smoking - they didn't know better in those days.

Jen arrived early and we went through daughters' requirements and quick guide of the house before I left. Daughter was initially quite but warmed to Jen quickly and settled in. Daughter is normally quiet for the first 5-10 minutes before she comes out of her shell and becomes chatty. Came home to find daughter in her bed and sound asleep. In the morning daughter asked if we could have Jen round another time to babysit so excellent result. First class service. Thank you.
What a fantastic service, wish I had found this earlier. For years I have struggled getting a baby sitter when myself and all my friends want a night out together, it's usually a friend who sits for me. I was able to go out and know that my son was in capable hands. Charlene was very personable and I felt instantly at ease with her.
Hello I Just wanted to say what a pleasure it was to have Joanna sit for us recently. Not only was she extremely professional, she was a great hit with our daughter! Knowing our child was in safe hands allowed us to enjoy a great night out. We will be sure to use sitters again soon. Kindest regards Emma.

11 months before the next Russia Day, Lomography's wrapped the classic Ruski film-camera in red goats' leather and painted fertility symbols on it. Why they did that, I'm not sure, but I do like the soviet badge on the back.
Unlike the $8 the new-Lomography founder paid for his original LC-A years back when he first discovered the Russian camera, this limited edition model costs a steep $389. You do get it in a nice velvet-lined box, though...and a couple of straps! [Lomography via LC-A+ Russia Day microsite]

- Unmanaged 8-port rugged Ethernet switch
- Rugged aluminum enclosure with IP40 protection
- 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet channels via M12 connectors
- Ultra wide range power supply input (14.4 to 154 VDC) with interruption class S2

- Fanless and maintenance-free
- -40°C to +85°C operating temperature
- Compliant to EN 50155 (railways) and ISO 7637-2 (E-mark for automotive)
Nuremberg, Germany - January 28, 2015. The NM10 is a robust unmanaged 8-port Ethernet switch in a compact box PC format and is available in four standard configurations. The flexible switch comes with either 100 Mb or 1 Gb Ethernet interfaces, as well as with a Class 2 wide range power supply.
Ethernet Switch for Track, Road or Industry
Conforming to EN 50155 and ISO 7637-2, the rugged Ethernet switch reliably operates in the extended temperature range of -40 to +70°C (+85°C for 10 minutes in accordance with Tx) in harsh road, railway and industrial applications.
In addition to the Ethernet interface options of either 100 Mb or 1 Gb Ethernet interfaces, the new switch is available with or without Power over Ethernet Plus functionality (PoE+).
The NM10 is part of MEN's family of robust Ethernet switches that withstand demanding and harsh environments. The rugged aluminum enclosure is not just for conduction cooling, which makes the NM10 fanless and maintenance-free, but also protects the enclosed electronics, meeting IP40 requirements.
All electrical components are soldered to resist shock and vibration, and are protected against dust and humidity through conformal coating. The Ethernet channels are accessible on the front via robust M12 connectors.
The wide range power supply offers a voltage range from 14.4 to 154 VDC. The supported voltage range from 24 to 110 VDC allows the NM10 to conform to EN 50155 for railway and ISO 7637-2 for E-Mark certification in automotive applications.

There are constant changes, additions, and more going on behind the scenes that our guests may not notice during their visit. We want to share these fun updates with our community so we're bringing them to you in our weekly Animal Update posts! Check our blog every Friday to find out what's going on... here's what's new this week! Bi-color parrotfish in Blacktip Reef! Did you know? Bi-color parrotfish sleep in bubbles of slime. Before finding their sleeping spot within the reef for the night, the parrotfish spins a cocoon around its body. The slimy bubble protects the parrotfish from nighttime predators by hiding its scent! Parrotfish get their name from their beak-like teeth and bright coloration. They use their "beaks" to eat the algae that grows on and around coral. When the coral rock has travel through the parrotfish's digestive system (which extracts the needed nutrients from the algae), it comes out as sand! A large bi-color parrotfish can produce up to 2,200 pounds of sand per year! This species is found throughout the warm waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Be sure to check back every Friday to find out what's happening!

I'm still new enough to Fat Acceptance that I don't know about all of the internecine conflicts within the movement, but there's one you can hardly miss if you read a few different fat blogs: the pro-dieting (or at least dieting-neutral) crowd vs. the anti-dieting crowd.
So far, my position has been that personally, I am staunchly anti-dieting — and will swiftly stamp out any dieting propaganda on this blog — but I am not going to get into a fight with those who disagree. I'd rather focus on things we can agree on. Opening this can of worms would not be worth it.
Now, I'm starting to think that maybe it's worth it. I've read enough conversations on enough different blogs lately to feel like I'm taking crazy pills: all over the fatosphere, I'm suddenly seeing diet talk. And I understand a lot better now where BStu was coming from when he wrote this post, back when I was just a baby fat blogger wondering why we can't all get along. You know, in May. (Was I ever so young?)
The Rotund already hit a lot of great points on this topic today. As she ably demonstrates, it is rather difficult to reconcile a deep belief in personal autonomy with a blanket anti-dieting stance. But in her comments, I just clarified the core of this issue for me:
I take the position that no one should pursue weight loss as a goal in and of itself. That is not the same as believing any individual who pursues weight loss is automatically stupid, misguided, or incapable of supporting some elements of fat acceptance. It is my political stance on the matter, not a reflection of my personal feelings about any given person's choices. There are too many different people and too many different reasons for that choice for me to say I have a problem with people who diet. But I have a problem with the practice of dieting, in the abstract. Big one.
Put it this way: I also take the position that no one should vote for a Republican president. That's because, in the abstract, I believe there are solid, logical, demonstrable reasons not to vote for a Republican president. But I had dinner the other night with someone who voted for fucking Bush, and we had fun. I have no personal opinion whatsoever on the vast majority of Republican voters, whom I don't know and never will. I could probably have dinner with plenty of them, and I wouldn't feel any pressing need to fight with every one of them about their choices, because this is (at least nominally) a democracy, and that's how it works. People do what they think is best, and as long as it's legal and not violent, I'll support their right to do that. But in the abstract, based on the best information I have, I still believe voting Republican is a bad choice, and I have no problem saying so publicly. That's where I come down on the issue, not on the individuals who do it.
And that's exactly how I feel about dieting.
Still with me? Here's where it gets controversial. I do not believe you can truly be a fat acceptance activist and support dieting any more than you can be a liberal activist and support Bush. I believe the two are simply irreconcilable.
Having thrown down that gauntlet, let me clarify a few things.
- Making changes in your eating and exercise habits with an eye to improving your health is not dieting. It is practicing Health at Every Size, which I advocate every chance I get.
- Making changes in your eating and exercise habits with an eye to losing weight is dieting. Even if you claim you're doing it for your health. And yes, I think the distinction there is incredibly important,which I'll elaborate on in a minute.
- There are some pro-dieting/dieting-neutral people whom I generally admire and who have done some really terrific, fat-positive things. But as long as they remain unwilling to take the position that the deliberate pursuit of weight loss is antithetical to fat acceptance, I cannot call them fat acceptance activists.
Here's why.
1. Deliberately trying to lose weight is, by definition, not accepting your own fat.
I realize that at the individual level, this gets really murky. Hell, I mentioned in comments yesterday that I'm thinking of switching from Lexapro to a different antidepressant, because I've gained a lot of weight since I've been on it, and I'm now right on the border of going beyond what history has shown to be my natural weight range. Furthermore, frankly, my boobs are totally fucking out of control these days, and it makes both buying bras and doing some yoga poses a lot harder. I don't believe those are good reasons to diet; I do think they're good reasons to try another drug that might not have the same effect. So it has nothing to do with whether I think I can be attractive and healthy as a fat person, and everything to do with having gained like 25 or 30 lbs. in a relatively short amount of time, for no apparent reason other than medication, and with no sign of it slowing down; that's not normal for my body, and if a different drug can bring the happy without forcing me to buy new clothes every few months (don't get me wrong: I LOVE buying new clothes, just not being forced), then I want to try it. If a different drug can't bring the happy, mind you, then I'll start having bras custom made and figure out new yoga modifications and keep on buying new clothes, because I have no fear of being fat, and a huge fear of being depressed again.
But then, I realize I'm splitting hairs there. And I also realize people who make arguments like, "But I don't want to be thin, I just want to lose a little weight for my health!" believe they're splitting basically the same hairs. Like I said, it gets murky. But saying you want to lose just a little weight, or that you only want to lose weight for your health, ignores one of the principal points fat acceptance activists keep trying to make:
Here's where the "solid, logical, demonstrable reasons" I mentioned before come in. There is no good reason in the world to believe that dieting will make you any thinner in the long run. There is ample reason to believe dieting will, in fact, make you fatter in the long run. There is also ample reason to believe that eating a balanced diet and exercising are good for your health regardless of whether you lose weight. But there is still not one good reason to believe dieting will make you thinner.
So when I see people saying they just want to lose a little weight, or they're just trying to lose weight for their health, or they're just trying to lose weight for personal reasons, I think, well, fine. Whatever. Knock yourself out. But if you can't grok that long-term deliberate weight loss is virtually impossible, you're missing a really big point of the fat acceptance movement.
And if it's really about your health, and you've read anything about Health at Every Size — which, if you've participated in the fat acceptance community for fifteen minutes, you have — why are you still including weight loss as a goal? The only logical conclusion is that you don't actually accept your own fat, which is, fortunately or unfortunately, a key component of general fat acceptance.
3. This is the biggie: We live in a pro-dieting culture, and it hurts people.
As The Rotund puts it, fat acceptance activists aren't trying to eliminate dieting (though it might be nice) so much as "unprivilege" it. In this culture, wanting to lose weight is the norm for all but the already very thin, despite the evidence that diets don't work and weight loss, in and of itself, does not improve health. The primacy of dieting is perpetuated by lies, distortions, bigotry, and bad science, with only the occasional dash of truth or logic dropped in, but it's incredibly effective. And that contributes not only to eating disorders, body image problems, and health problems, but to a culture that, as a whole, agrees fat is always unacceptable. Which, last time I checked, is what fat acceptance activists are trying to change.
So I guess what I'm saying is, you can't dismantle the master's house using the master's tools. I mean, I don't even necessarily believe in that axiom across the board, but when it comes to dieting, I sure do. I believe — based on science and logic — that there is no such thing as a "healthy" weight loss plan. I definitely believe there is no such thing as a "proven" weight loss plan. Most importantly, I believe that the myths of those things hurt people.
And I believe that the logical alternative to those myths is fat acceptance and Health at Every Size. I don't believe the pursuit of deliberate weight loss can ever be folded into fat acceptance.
It's not about judging people, or telling them what to do with their bodies, or trying to kick some people off of Team Fat. It's about the reality of dieting as an abstract concept, as I see it, based on the best information I can find. It's about the culture we live in, and the culture I want to live in. It's about standing for something in particular, because I believe it's right, not about condemning people who disagree with me.
I think dieting is bullshit. And I think it's antithetical to fat acceptance.
There, I said it.

My first patient of the day is a soft, five-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Chelsea. She peers suspiciously at me through half-open eyelids as her family describes the goopy eye discharge that goes away with topical medication but recurs as soon as treatment is discontinued.Chelsea's not interested in playing ball as much as before, and spends most of her time curled up in her bed snoozing—behavior hardly expected from a champion ball-catcher.
I take a closer look at her eyes with my slit lamp and see thin blood vessels growing within what should be crystal-clear corneas. Instead, they're a hazy gray, and the conjunctiva—the mucous membrane that covers the exposed portion of the eyeball and lines the inside of her eyelids—is red and puffy. I use special little paper strips divided into millimeter increments to measure Chelsea's tear production and find that she has less than a third of what she should have. I then apply a topical stain that coats her cornea in a rough and patchy pattern. The combination of Chelsea's clinical history, her eye exam and the test results gives me a diagnosis: keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), also known as "dry eye."
KCS is just one of the diseases that can affect the precorneal tear film that keeps the cornea and surrounding eye tissues healthy. The precorneal tear film provides oxygen and nutrition to these tissues and carries away debris from the surface of the eye. Much of the time, KCS is caused by an immune-mediated problem that creates inflammation within the tear glands and reduces the amount or quality of the tears they produce.Some drug interactions and systemic health conditions such as hypothyroidism may also affect the tear film, as can damage to the nerves that stimulate these glands to work properly. Additionally, the movement of the eyelids spreads the tear film across the cornea, so a dog's inability to fully blink can also affect eye health.
Any dog can develop KCS, but some breeds seem to be predisposed. Shih Tzus, Lhasa Apsos, and Pugs top the list in my practice, but it's also common in English Bulldogs, Westies, Cocker Spaniels, Yorkies, Pekinese, Boston Terriers and Cavaliers like my new friend Chelsea. The brachycephalic (squishedfaced) breeds often have big buggy eyes that are more exposed to the world, so they need even better tear production and quality than a breed with deeper-set eyes, such as a Standard Poodle or Collie.
Sign up for our newsletter and stay in the know.
What happens if your dog doesn't produce enough tears? Just like Chelsea, he can develop red, irritated eyes that are painful and inclined toward bacterial infections and corneal ulcerations. Superficial corneal ulcerations can rapidly turn into deep ones that need surgical treatment to save the eye. If KCS is left untreated, the cornea will often become cloudy, with scarring over the surface and blood vessels growing across it. The corneal surface can even pigment and become so opaque that it obstructs vision. Fortunately, there are medications available to control the immunemediated inflammation within the tear glands.Notice I said control, not cure. By suppressing the inflammation in the tear glands, the medication allows your dog to produce more of his own tears.
The most important factors in treating KCS are consistently applying the medications as prescribed and following up with your veterinarian to determine if the treatment plan is working as expected. Don't give up if you don't see instant improvement; it may take several weeks of consistent application of medication before you see a difference. Chances are your dog will respond to medication relatively quickly: Don't stop, reduce or change the medication until you follow up with your veterinarian. Your dog will look better because you're treating the KCS, not because the KCS is cured. Stopping the medication allows the inflammation to recur, and you'll have to start all over again. Keep repeating this cycle and those poor little tear glands may scar to the point where they can't produce the tears needed even with treatment.
As for Chelsea, she went home with medication, and I received a call a couple of weeks later reporting that she was back to her energetic, ball-playing self. That's news that keeps me happy!

Documents show Samson 'highly involved' in Port Authority's operations
Documents produced by the chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in response to a recent subpoena show that David Samson heavily was involved in the authority's operations, said the co-chairman of the special investigative committee investigating the George Washington Bridge lane closures.
Samson, under subpoena, turned over documents to the New Jersey Legislative Select Committee on Investigation late Friday or Saturday, said Assemblyman John Wisniewski, D-Middlesex, co-chair of the committee.
Wisniewski said the documents call into question the distance between Samson's role as chairman and the work of his law firm, Wolff & Samson, which represents the developer the Rockefeller Group and NJ Transit, both which have dealings with the Port Authority.
"A chairman of the board usually doesn't get into the operation at a high level. They don't get into the weeds," Wisniewski said.
Samson did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
Christie appointee David Wildstein, then a Port Authority executive, worked to shut down the access lanes to the George Washington Bridge from Fort Lee in September and Port Authority Executive Director Patrick Foye ordered them reopened.
After that happened, Wildstein wrote to Bridget Anne Kelly, deputy chief of staff for Christie at the time,on Sept, 13, "The New York side gave Fort Lee back all three lanes this morning. We are appropriately going nuts. Samson helping us to retaliate."
Wisniewski said the committee also is exploring that statement.
"If this was just a traffic study, why were they so angry?" Wisniewski said.
In another development, Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich discussed the closings with the U.S. Attorney's Office Friday, said his attorney, Tim Donohue.
Sokolich, who refused to endorse Gov. Chris Christie during his re-election bid, declined to comment on what he told investigators.
"The mayor voluntarily met on Friday with members of the U.S. Attorney's Office in Newark to discuss the lane closures at the George Washington Bridge this past September," Donohue said in a statement.

Every day, more people around the world rely on laptops, phones and tablets to make their lives more productive and fun. Electronic gadgets can make our lives better, but the rate at which we purchase and discard these devices is having a serious impact on our planet. Consumers have expressed their desire for greener electronics, and the industry has shown that improvements are possible, but only if leading electronics companies apply the sector's know-how and innovative spirit within the sustainability arena.
This 18th edition of Greenpeace's Guide to Greener Electronics evaluates leading consumer electronics companies based on their commitment and progress in three environmental criteria: Energy and Climate, Greener Products, and Sustainable Operations. The Guide scores companies on overall policies and practices – not on specific products – to provide consumers with a snapshot of the sustainability of the biggest names in the industry. This Guide is not an endorsement for buying products from one company or another.

Don't Forget to Write
Recently, Kerry of Clue Wagon opened up a nice little discussion. The little discussion took on a life of its own right into the comments. She began with genealogical software: the choices available, then why and how we use them. Kerry decided she'd put too much reliance on and expectation of software as an end product. Her post concluded that source citations and writing the history are OUR job, not that of a software program.
What is the ultimate software product? A "genealogy report"? —an automated, mechanical (boring) so-called family history? Software is just a tool, a storage tool at that. Good for data entry, but often cumbersome for real writing. In my opinion, only a word-processing program can liberate your creativity.
I hear you, those who think they have trouble writing. Maybe the mere fact of accumulating hundreds or thousands of names in your software database is what subconsciously scares the crap out of you! Feeling comfortable with writing comes with practice, practice, practice. You don't have to write the whole family history at once. One paragraph at a time, one ancestral biography at a time.
The comments on Clue Wagon came back full circle to software preferences. Meanwhile, I particularly liked these observations, not necessarily in chronological order:
Kerry: We spend so much time and energy on being slaves to making the software fit, and we could be spending it writing or doing research.
Kerry: I'm actually finding that I sort of like doing it in Word [ed.: substitute your favourite word-processing program] ... I thought it would be awful, but it's actually kind of freeing. Who knew?
Kerry: You want the story to flow and be compelling, and no software can do that for you. I think that's one thing genealogy blogging helps you see more clearly...the need for plain old writing.
Harold: ... some of the best genealogists in the world don't use a database at all. ... There is just no substitute for a well-written, documented story of a family.
Lynn: No database can write your family history, organize it yes, but far too often we do nothing but organize and organize and never get to the writing.
Yes, some of us spurn the software for no particular reason. Building an acceptable genealogy format from scratch is a learning experience of great self-satisfaction. We savour the challenge of consistent source citations (more practice, practice, practice)—forced to think about the source it represents, its quality as evidence, and whether the germane elements are captured. And oh, the gratification of a well-constructed sentence or paragraph!
[I know, ... weird, eh? Secret pleasures. It doesn't mean I get it right all of the time or even some of the time. But the product is all mine.]
To me, a big component of networking is encouraging, urging, people to turn those piles of research notes and database charts into writing a unique family history.
Thanks, Kerry! I hereby declare that no payment exchanged hands to promote her blog :-)

Wow, thank you for the mention...I'm so glad to see this discussion happening all over. I heard people talking about this at RootsTech too, and I think its time has come. I love technology, but I don't want to be a slave to it.

Great post! I called a personal timeout with my database software last year and have been organizing, writing, and analyzing (not necessarily in that order). Blogging is a great tool for sharing as you go. Eventually some of what I post there will migrate to another format - book or website or both. But in the short term it's a way to eat the genealogical elephant.

Thank you both for taking the time to comment. I couldn't agree more about the blogging, "sharing as you go." It's also a way to share new information after you publish an opus because somehow the research never stops ... :-D

Excellent summary of the topic. Taking on large projects is always a problem for me; blogging helps break it down into doable bits and keeps me from being a "slave to my software." My favorite part of the software I use? The "Notes" section, where I can just copy all sorts of information that doesn't fit into the boxes.

Thanks, Greta. I'm still in awe of your post "Toward a Genealogical Democracy." I agree that a "gentle and welcoming approach to newbies" is always desirable, especially with the huge advent of genealogy bloggers who may be at such different skill levels, networking, and experience in general. However I maintain that aiming for profession*al* results in research, relationship analysis, and the written communication (blog or family history or what have you), benefits all of us as a credibly acceptable community of study.

Hi, my story started with consoling my girlfriend, when she was in relationship with her boyfriend of 2 years. she use to cry , uninstall whatsapp and put weird dp's when she had a fight with her bf. she is my colleague (different departments). s, I approached her through whatsapp by saying that u have a pretty face but ur face looks pale and sad these days. so she told me that she is having friction in her love story as her bf doesnt care for her and takes her lightly and gives more value to his family and friends. so, we started meeting, I motivated her by saying that ur family, friends and I we all care for u so just be happy.motivated her in all my possible ways. One fine day, I told her that my family has seen a girl for me (lie) and m going to meet her. she called me lots of time and asked me not to go and also asked me to see her immediately. I went their and she told me indirectly that m getting worried dont u get a sign?. at night we confessed that we both love each other. I told her but ull not be able to leave ur bf, she said give me sometime i will leave him. in between her previous bf came to meet her she didnt tell me but I saw them. I kept her pressing her to choose either of us. now the current scene is whenever he comes ( he is not in same town) I let her go and meet him. Whenever he calls I ask her to pick up his call but she tells him that she is with some other girl. Her bf doesnt have a clue about me. She told me that I discuss each and everything with you but not with my bf. She also said few things-:
1.I tried but i cannot leave him as I am emotionally attached with him
2. TO me she said- lets stay normal without any relationship
3.I respect u, I love u, I cant live without u but I cannot give u any commitment.
4. Dont have any expectation from me as I am not sure about future.
though we meet regularly. We also fight because I have some insecurities like when she talks to him, messages him and meets him etc.
She calls me saviour as when she was going mad over her bf I took her out and now she doesnt get mad when he fights with her. I am getting very attached to her , I think of her all the day though she gets irritated because of my this behavior.pls suggest what should I do.

The Buffalo-Niagara region is defined by a neighborly way of life, an unpretentious nature and spirited loyalty among residents. In fact, one of Buffalo's nicknames is "The City of Good Neighbors." Buffalo is big enough to have professional sports teams and world-renowned cultural institutions, yet it brims with small-town charm and convenience. We take pride in being friendly, caring and full of fun — especially in the snow!
Several major U.S. cities are within a 90-minute flight from UB, including: New York City, Washington, D.C., Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia.
Located in New York State between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, two of the famous Great Lakes, Buffalo and the Buffalo-Niagara region (including Niagara Falls) is a safe and friendly community that is close and convenient to several major metropolitan areas, including New York City, Washington, D.C., Boston, and Toronto, Canada's largest urban center. Niagara Falls, one of the seven wonders of the natural world, is just a short drive away.
Buffalo's location and international airport make it easy to catch a flight to and from just about anywhere.
There are four bridges connecting the Western New York region and Ontario, Canada.
Our location on the U.S.-Canadian border means that international engagement is just a regular part of our daily lives.
Schussmeisters Ski Club at UB has nearly 3,000 members, making it one of the largest ski clubs in the United States!
The Buffalo-Niagara region enjoys four distinct seasons, each offering a unique experience, from the crisp crunching of leaves in the fall to the warmth and sunshine of our beautiful summers.
Buffalo was recently featured in the New York Times' 36 Hours Series. The article features much of the exciting history, heritage, and new growth the city has to offer!
Buffalo is a city bursting with culture. We've got professional theater, world-class museums and contemporary art galleries, plus a vibrant nightlife with numerous spots where you can see live music, meet up with friends after class, go bowling or grab a bite to eat.
The city of Buffalo has a thriving food truck scene, with more than a dozen mobile restaurants offering everything from freshly prepared Mexican tacos to vegan and vegetarian options.
From exciting fine dining to our world-famous chicken wings, Western New York boasts some of the best eats in the country! Make sure you sample our wide range of restaurants, farmer's markets and specialty food shops.
You may have heard them called "Buffalo wings," but here in Western New York, we just call them delicious.
Getting downtown to a baseball game or to a waterfront concert is easy with Buffalo's public transportation system, which includes light rail and an extensive network of buses. And, the Metro Rail line connects UB's South Campus with downtown Buffalo and the neighborhoods in between.
Buffalo is home to three professional athletic teams: the Bills (American football), Sabres (ice hockey) and Bandits (indoor lacrosse). And if you enjoy spending time outdoors, the Buffalo-Niagara region is an ideal place to be. The area is bounded by two of the Great Lakes (Erie and Ontario), among several other waterways perfect for kayaking or sailing. Just south of the city are also several highly rated skiing and snowboarding resorts.

This weekend I attended an excellent and entertaining workshop presented by the Atlanta Writer's Club. I've been working on a couple of writing projects for awhile, now, and seem to have hit a wall. Lauretta Hannon (The Cracker Queen) spoke on the importance of platform for writers. She kept us on our toes with crucial tips to getting ourselves "out-there." I totally love that Lauretta, like myself, is a "Whup-Ass Southern Woman". The "anti-Southern Belle". I am looking forward to reading her book "The Cracker Queen".
2 hours into the workshop, our break was announced. Immediately, 100 women ran to get in line for the 2 stalls in the bathroom. Thankfully, I'm retaining water, (another symptom of Mental Pause,) so I wasn't so desperate to pee just then. So I took the opportunity to buy a book and get it signed. While in the book line, I had a brief conversation with a nice 70-something gent about the book he is writing. Then I got in the (now shorter) bathroom line.
As soon as I came out of the bathroom, the man approached me.
"Would you like to go out with me sometime?" he asked.
"Well, I'm married," I replied.
He looked at my hand. "You are? I don't guess that would sit too well with your husband," he replied.
I held up my naked ring finger. "Oh, well, see, I don't have my wedding band on because I've gained so much weight, I don't know if it's water or age or what, I had to take it off and I just can't get it back on and it cuts off my circulation and I'd hate to lose that finger and all, I tried to get it re-sized but it was too expensive so I probably should just lose weight but it's really hard…
I have no idea the purpose of that aimless babble. We both stood there for an awkward moment before the lights flashed, marking the end of the break.
I dashed back to my seat and pretended to scrutinize my notes.
I felt bad for him, sort of. I mean, he put himself "out there," which, I bet, is really hard to do. Especially when you're, um, old. Then again, good for him. I admire his balls. You know what I mean.
After the conference, I ran into him in the doorway.
"Good Luck," I smiled, not sure if I meant with his book or finding a date.
On the drive home, I thought about the day. The workshop. The man. The necessity to "put ourselves out there" in order to achieve what we want. I vowed to make more of an effort, even at the risk of rejection, to accomplish my goals. Yep, starting now, I'm gonna put myself out there. Thanks, Lauretta. Thanks, Mr. Man.

Dinosaur with tiny arms unearthed in Argentina
Argentine experts have discovered the near-complete remains of a new species of Jurassic-era dinosaur that stood on its rear legs and had tiny arms, according to a leading paleontologist.
The find belongs to the Abelisaurus family, "the most common carnivorous species in the southern hemisphere during the Cretaceous Period," some 70 to 100 million years ago, paleontologist Diego Pol told AFP on Thursday.
"However the fossils that we found are some 170 million years old," from the earlier Jurassic Period, Pol said.
The creature looks a bit like a scaled-down Tyrannosaurus rex, but with even smaller arms.
The new species, baptized Eoabelisaurus mefi, predates the oldest known member of the Abelisauri lineage by more than 40 million years.
Unlike its descendants, this six-meter (20-foot) long creature creature "has completely reduced arms and tiny claws, which implies that it used only its very sharp teeth to feed itself," Pol said.
Abelisauri remains have been found only in the southern hemisphere.
Experts believe a great desert in the Earth's single land mass at the time, Pangea, could have acted as a geographic barrier, preventing the species from spreading north.
The fossils were discovered on Condor Hill, in the southern Patagonian province of Chubut, some 1,800 kilometers (1,120 miles) southwest of Buenos Aires.
A 25-member team from the Edigio Feruglio Museum of Paleontology in Chubut discovered the creature's cranium and vertebrae during a dig in 2009.
The team was forced to abandon the expedition when winter approached, and returned the next year during the summer, when "we found the animal's whole articulated skeleton," Pol said.
Details of the find appear in an article Wednesday in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of London.
Argentina earned fame as a prime site for dinosaur fossil hunters with several discoveries in the 1980s, including the Argentinosaurus Huinculensis, a giant herbivore more than 40 meters (131 feet) long that lived 98 million years ago.
In 1993, scientists in Argentina found the remains of the Giganotosaurus Carolinii, a T-Rex type creature that is the largest carnivorous dinosaur ever found.

Apple Patents Notebook With Integrated iPod mini
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Corporate News, PC / Laptop, Portable Audio / Video,
According to Patent Application 20040224638, Apple may be on the path to bringing out its most unique portable computer to date. The notebook would allow for an iPod mini to double as the touch pad. The patent also talks about integrating higher RF signals into the notebook from within the cell phone range. I must say, while it looks interesting - it seems a bit "toy-ish" to me to have a pink iPod mini sitting in my silver PowerBook. Then again, who are we to judge? Nowadays everything that Apple touches turns to gold.

Breast Exams Performed With Robotic Arm
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Misc. Tech,
Michigan State University researchers are working on a remote breast exam machine, allowing women to have exams without having to physically be at the doctors office. This is great for those in remote locations. The doctor would use a glove on their end, which would control the robot in the remote location. The apparatus would send information visually back to the doctor so that they could diagnose, and would also allow for audible communication between both parties.

Motorola Buys Sendo
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Smartphones, Corporate News,
Motorola has come to terms, agreeing to buy parts of Sendo. Motorola will end up with Sendo's research and development team, including the equipment the team uses. We do not know the specifics of exactly how much Moto is forking out, but it looks like the Sendo brand may be done. A shame, we thought the Sendo X was pretty cool. Last year Sendo brought in $420 million - I guess the days of that being a nice income are gone.

DVD Jon Cracks Google Video Viewer Software In Under 24 Hours
Posted by Devin Categories: Internet, Mods / Hacks,
DVD Jon, the Norwegian who created software to unlock copy-protection codes on DVD movies about 6 years ago, said he only needed one day to crack the Google video viewer that launched Monday. Keeping true to his word, Jon Lech Johansen posted the software on his "So Sue Me" website that he claims will modify the viewer, allowing it to play videos stored on any server. Google has not yet responded to any emails/messages left early Wednesday morning at its California headquaters, but I'm sure we'll have their take on this by days' end.

AMD Ready To Take On Intel In Federal Court
Posted by Devin Categories: Corporate News, PC / Laptop,
Computer chip maker AMD filed an antitrust complaint against rival Intel on Monday. The charges, filed in Federal Court, have AMD(Advanced Micro Devices) claiming that Intel used its size to "coerce" customers into deliberately avoiding AMD's chips. Intel holds approximately 80% of the chip market, with AMD left with the remaining 20%. This is just the latest in a string of smaller tech. companies suing larger ones, but lawsuits like this don't always have a negative effect on the parties involved. The case is likely to shed light on the world of chip sales, tech analysts say. The case isn't expected to take down Intel, but will likely end up as a positive for both companies. Lawsuits often generate valuable publicity.

BenQ P50 May See Light of Day, But Who Cares At This Point?
Posted by Sparky Categories: Smartphones, Handhelds,
Sometime last year when the BenQ P50 was first announced a lot of geeks got all weak in the knees. It's a pocket PC phone with the same form factor as the Treo (sans antenna) and packs the punch with features: Bluetooth, Wifi, 64MB of RAM, 64MB of ROM, 1.3MP camera, and of course the QWERTY thumboard for all your email needs. The big news today is that the P50 has gotten FCC approval meaning a US carrier might actually bring the thing out. The downside to this is that nobody is really that excited about it anymore. It's too late to be a Treo 650 contender, only has GPRS (no UMTS or even EDGE), and 320x240 screens are a dime a dozen now. Over at Gear Live we are still a little excited about it, but now there are so many more exciting phones to drool over that the P50 just seems to fade into the too little too late category.

Max Payne Movie
Posted by Oscar M. Cantu Categories: Action,
Looks like more and more video games are trying to get on the big screen. No, I don't mean the HDTV sets gamers are snapping up in anticipation of the 360 launch – we're talking Hollywood here. Max Payne will be turned into a movie thanks to 20th Century Fox. If you don't remember the story, or don't know it, then this quick little re-cap will do:
The story, as THR reminds us, centers around a New York cop, Max Payne, whose wife and baby are murdered by criminals high on a new drug called Valkyr. Without much left to live for, Payne joins the DEA and goes undercover with the mob to discover the source of the drug. Framed by the murder of his partner, Max is hunted down by both the mob and the cops in his one-man war on crime.
No word yet on the exact date it will be released. Who do you think should play the lead role?
