The Yiddish Book Center's Podcast
In a visit with curator Patricia Klindienst we learn how a simple postcard led her to reconstruct the story of Abram Spiwak and Sophie Schochetman - their immigration from Czarist Russia to America, their courtship, marriage, and the making of their life together. Klindienst's exhibit, No One Remembers Alone: Memory, Migration, and the Making of an American Family, tells the universal story of the emigrant through postcards, related ephemera, and photographs. "No One Remembers Alone" is on exhibit at the Yiddish Book Center through March 2014.
The former owner/proprietor of the beloved appetizing store on Manhattan's Lower East Side tells the delightful, mouthwatering story of an immigrant family's journey from a pushcart in 1907 to "New York's most hallowed shrine to the miracle of caviar, smoked salmon, ethereal herring, and silken chopped liver" (Jason Epstein, "The New York Times Magazine").

Product Reviews
Traditional / Classic Single Light Down Lighting Outdoor Wall Sconce from the Revere Collection
A great choice
Needed an outdoor fixture that would fit over our garage door and match a new fixture adjacent to our front door. WHen we found that this line of fixtures had at least 2 (one slightly smaller) that would fit our home's style, in a finish that we liked and was neither cheapy-cheap or expensive. We thought that we would take the chance and made the purchase. So far we were glad that we did! We spent hours in local home goods/remodeling stores--2 large chains stores and ended up recognizing 90% of our neighbors choices. Now we actually have 2 outdoor fixtures that are different from our neighbors but not drastically so.

Apple had a great opportunity to build bridges, not only between itself and its customers but also with Adobe, by announcing it had finally done the right thing and included support for Adobe Flash when it announced new iPhone 4.0 OS features this week. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Apple did not grasp that opportunity but instead made it very clear that no such support will be forthcoming.
According to Lee Brimelow, whose official title at Adobe is that of 'Platform Evangelist' for Flash amongst other things, the new iPhone 4.0 SDK "appears to make creating applications in any non-Apple-approved languages a violation of terms" which would seem to put the kibosh on Flash for now. Unless, of course, you take the jailbreak option for the iPhone or even the iPad which should have a commercial jailbreaking application available real soon now by the looks of things.
Adobe is said to be "looking into this wording carefully" and will no doubt publish an official conclusion in due course. In the meantime, on his personal blog, Brimelow has been making his own feelings particularly clear. He's also made it clear, at the behest of his employers, that his opinions are his won and not those of Adobe.
Which is probably just as well as Brimelow says "Go screw yourself Apple". Stating on the one hand that is has nothing do with getting Flash player onto the iPhone, and on the other that Apple not only want "tyrannical control over developers" but also to "use developers as pawns in their crusade against Adobe" Brimelow calls the Apple decision to not allow applications onto the iPhone because of the language used to create them as being a "frightening move that has no rational defense".
OK, so Brimelow has done his best to try and separate his personal opinions from the official company line but you can bet that there is some ripe language being used behind closed doors at Adobe following this latest piece of anti-Flash face slapping from Apple.
Adobe screwed itself.
I agree with Apple.
Quality of apps is best served by programming using C, C++, Objective-C and X-Code.
Cross-platform middleware creates programs at the lowest common denominator - not taking advantage of what features makes the iPhone unique. Since the iPhone has a different form of multitasking than other platforms, for example, cross-platform middleware won't take advantage of this differentiation. When programmers program to the lowest common denominator then the progress of the platform is hindered.
Good programmers easily pick up new computer languages and tools. It is part of the job description. It took the programmers of Super Monkey Ball, for example, only a week to pick up Objective-C and X-Code.
Section 3.3.1 essentially then weeds out the bad programmers and the programmers who are NOT truly interested in programming to the strengths of the iPhone platform.
Consider Section 3.3.1 a test of a programmer's IQ and a test of loyalty.
Those that don't qualify can move on to other platforms - and there are many other platforms.
Apple isn't forcing programmers to not build for other platforms. That is silly. Programmers can simply use SDKs for each platform and develop for each one simultaneously.
If Adobe drops Mac OS X as a platform for Photoshop, then their profits take a huge hit and their stock price will take a huge hit. This will allow Apple to purchase 51% of Adobe stock and control all of Adobe.
Or, Apple can develop its own version of Photoshop for a much lower cost or even further the development of the cross-platform open-source Photoshop-clone, GIMP, so that GIMP can act exactly like Photoshop but can be obtained FREE on any platform and given the Apple brand. This would kill Adobe.
Remember that Adobe hastily created Adobe Lightroom when Apple created Aperture since Aperture intruded upon Adobe's photography territory.
Apple, with its strong branding, can easily hone in on Adobe with a Photoshop clone, should Adobe drop Mac OS X products.
Adobe, for example, tried to screw Apple with high licensing terms for Display Postcript - when Apple wanted to develop Core Graphics for drawing things on the screen for Mac OS X. Apple, instead, developed its own screen language based on PDF, much to Adobe's irritation.
Adobe can threaten Microsoft to remove PDF generation from MS Office - which MS blinked and removed. But they can't do that to Apple since Apple built its own PDF generator into the operating system.
Despite Adobe's complaints, Apple will NOT alter its vision of the future. Apple will NOT compromise on the quality of its platform. The quality of its platform is what differentiates it and makes it more valuable than its competitors.
Adobe screwed itself.
Thanks for the comprehensive response, an interesting take from the Apple perspective.
The Apple perspective is retarded. A "cross platform" language is not a crippled language. There are ways around this "impossible" issue. (Consider JMonkeyEngine for Java, a FULL--and yes, cross platform--hardware accelerated 3D game engine/SDK. Perhaps Apple is just too stupid or greedy to find good solutions, so they prefer to take the easy route? Or perhaps they're just trying to follow in Microsoft's footsteps and create a near monopoly market for themselves by subverting their customer's freedom?)
Cross platform developers like Java (not to mention ActionScript) dominate the market, and C/C++ programmers are becoming dinosaurs for a reason...
Interesting none of these "unique features" that Apple supposedly provides--which no other hardware manufacturer on the planet is "smart enough" to figure out how to do--aren't mentioned. Maybe it's because the "features" are absurdly patented by Apple, and they're too busy suing everyone else for "stealing their property"...
Sorry but once a company starts spending more time suing their competitors than producing better, lower cost products than their competitors, it's a sign of their decline (as long as lawyer/judge criminals don't keep propping them up with rewards from frivolous lawsuits...)
Apple is obviously scared of the fact that competent competition is still out there (Google, Adobe, Samsung, HTC, Nokia, Microsoft, Everyone, etc...) so they're using whatever underhanded, manipulative, dirty trick they can get away with to coerce developers and customers into giving them a monopoly.
I wonder if I have Steve Jobs to thank for that non-Flash based movie player that just froze and crashed my entire PC earlier tonight...
Adobe: "What we don't love is anybody taking away your freedom to choose what you create, how you create it, and what you experience on the web."
Apple: "You're only creating what we allow you to create, how we want you to create it. You cannot use your personal property to do anything on the web that we haven't approved of. (Or else?)"
Who's side do we take here?
Oh yeah--and authoring code only once (with a consistent platform), not re-engineering the wheel over and over, is "kind of a big deal" for commercial application developers looking to access the largest possible market...
C/C++ programmers are becoming dinosaurs for a reason...
That is so true. I can't think of a single operating system, huge application or multi-million dollar game from the last year that was written in C and/or C++.
LOL - OS development and game development are tiny markets. Look at the job listings, it's obvious where the jobs are... hello? (Must be a C++ guy... ah yes I remember those days...)
Adobe , you've been making real junk lately. Over priced and overburdened with problems, Lack of innovation and same old @&$' with some bad eye candy. Former Consumer (windows and Mac) perspective.
Go Play Outside, talk to people face to face, put gloves on or hit the mat for a real fight and shake hands and by each other a beer after.
LOL - OS development and game development are tiny markets.
So true. It seems that no computers these days come with an OS. Microsoft went bust a decade ago. Nobody even uses an OS.
Adobe has two uses:
- Unaccessible homepage content for cheap ppl that cannot use CSS3 and JS: If you think accessibility is not an issue for you, just try using ctrl+f search. It is! What a text to speech engine cannot read, you cannot search.
- Reatarded programing language for cheap ppl that cannot really program. There is Java and JS. Depends on what you need. JS engines have became sophisticated, as it's browser specific, allowing even iOs to run a damn fast and stable JS engine, maintaining the expected quality, like never ever freezeng or hanging, when I'm on the go, and want to check an address fast just before the traffic light turns green. On the other hand Java has extreme good support for computation intensive tasks with threading, adapting well to the hardware you run it. On top of this it's damn stable, while even the simplest flash programs freeze about once-twice per hour.
Flash is a good way for ppl with limited knowledge to fill your 1600 resolution with a simple homepage, but has nothing to so on mobile devices that needs reliability with limited hardware. So I would prefer having one less site using flash than being able to use one more site on my iPhone.
"appears to make creating applications in any non-Apple-approved languages a violation of terms"
Sure, but it's not only Objective C: There is JS, the most general language of web which is extensible, and Apple did extend it. Flash again would be a cheap toy for script kiddies: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariWebContent/HandlingEvents/HandlingEvents.html

Corporate Christmas Gifting
Here at GiftTree we are already gearing up for the Christmas Holiday. This goes for our corporate sales department as well! The types of things we are doing now to get ready for the Holiday rush include, familiarizing ourselves with Holiday specific products, discussing the possibility of discounts and getting last years list of customers together so we can remind them of the upcoming bustle. If you happen to be in charge of the corporate gifting for your company or boss this year, here are a few tips:
- Check with your company about gift caps. Your company may have limits on how much you can spend on each client or customer.
- Get your budget together and number of gifts required before inquiring with gifting companies.
- Find out if you should be putting Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays or just a simple thank you on the gift cards.
- Don't forget to inquire about bulk discounts. Some companies offer them, some don't. It never hurts to ask!
- Last but not least, don't wait until the last minutes! Lots of companies run out of stock or have limited quantities later in the season. Don't let your competitor get all the good stuff.
If you are in the market for Corporate Gifting this year check out our Corporate Gift Page. We are ready for you!

When we purchased our house (built in 1964) in 2006 we knew this bathroom would need to be remodeled and we tried to save money for the remodeling project but within a year we had to purchase a furnace and a hot water tank and the bathroom project got put aside. A year and a half ago we had Tile Meister come and give us a quote and hoped to start the project in a couple of months. But we soon had a couple of medical emergancies and last year paid $11,000 in medical bills, no bathroom remodel again. Ontop of this terrible, ugly bathroom our other bathroom has it's orginal blue sink, toilet and bathtub and will soon need to be remodeled also. Thank you for reading our story.

Smooth Spots to Grab a Cool Drink on the Las Vegas Strip
Wednesday, December 10th, 2008These aren't the Las Vegas bars or clubs where you have to stand in line for hours and hope you get in (that is if you forgot to buy the now popular line pass.) Nope. And they're not the kinds of places whose music makes you feel like the drummer just took up residence somewhere inside your rib cage. Uh-uh. These are just a few of our favorite spots to grab a drink, maybe a light appetizer or two, and enjoy some conversation with our companion(s). We've organized these by proximity so you can find a calm little reprieve no matter where you find yourself along The Strip.
Wynn Las Vegas – Hands down, it has to be the lobby level Parasol Up lounge. We smile every time we see the "Alice in Wonderland" parasols and the bar's whimsical décor. Who knew red and gold, blue and green, stripes and polka dots could be so ultimately classy when combined? (If you take the adjacent circular escalator to the lower level, you'll be at Parasol Down lounge with its gorgeous view of the lake.) (more…)

I never noticed this but I get up to 96°Ceek when playing games and at least 62°C @idle. I OCed my i5 to 3.8GHz using OC Genie and results are pretty good. Screen: (Speccy took the stock speed of the cpu) Could anyone suggest me a good cooler that will neutralize the temperature @ like 50-60°C when playing? and 40°C when idle? Budget: $100
ANYTHING! For the love of all that is good in this world, get anything on there. Like, are you even using thermal paste? Edit: I like my Xiggy s1283 with an Ultra Kaze 3000. If you want to get crazy, two Ultra Kazes in push/pull. Xiggy: ~$30 USD Ultra Kaze: ~$14 USD
fear not friend i peak at 99C no lie with some zalman on it. I have no idea why it does it im at 4.2Ghz on an i5 750. 100% load makes me think its going to melt. I dont understand why it does it. but iv been looking for an answer. ill provide proof.
If you insist to use OC Genie to OC your CPU then you need the best cooler you can buy. OC Genie and other non-intelligent OC tool bump up the voltages way over what is needed. Get a Noctua NH-D14.
well OC genie will likely overvolt the cpu. You can get the same OC with less volt. (do some reading) Personally i like keeping stock volts and OC as far as i can.
What software do you recommend then? Yeah, OC Genie is kinda bumping up my voltage. But It is pretty much easier because of auto overclock. lol.. I got like 0.135V on Vcore with the base clock of 183MHz. How much would a Noctua NH-D14 be?
#1 lower your voltages... use BIOS to OC #2 get a hyper 212+ and 2 fans, ie: like me, hyper 212+ 27$ + 2x Coolermaster R4 Blue LED 5$ ea = 37$ for nice looking cooling solution xD... get some MX-2 or MX-3 or OCZ freeze TIM ofc, idk how much it is in the US
I completely forgot how to overclock using bios. How do you OC? and how do I make it to 3.8GHz or 4.2GHz?
you definitely need an aftermarket cooler. if you dont want to fiddle with the bios, just get the cm 212+ and be done with it. this will bring your temp to reasonable level. I you do decide to get in to serious OC then start reading some OC guides. You might even bring that CPU to 4ghz .
I'm going to try OC using the bios. But what if my pc won't start anymore? Is this the time I would remove that silver battery-like thingy on my mobo and put it back again?
Although I'm not sure how to OC. How do you OC using BIOS? I can't change anything when I'm on Cell Menu. Every option is on grey (w/c means i can't change it)
I would also like to try to watercool it. But IDK how and where to start. Also, I don't want the cooler to take much space inside my rig.
Watercooling costs alot and is unnecessary for an lga 1156, let alone someone who does know how to OC from a BIOS yet xD I suggest you get the Hyper 212+ because it is the best bang/buck for you atm
LOL.. I was only gonna try but since u said that it would rape my wallet, I would buy that fan. Besides, I already figured out how to OC from the bios. (Hurrah!) and is currently @ 3.6GHz (can't go to 3.8 on bios; windows won't start)
I have the same proccessor. The stock FSB is 140 (i think, lol), just change it to 160, 180, 200... and test... +doublecheck your RAM speed, because it changes when you do the above.
changed it to 200, the voltage is too high. If i set voltage too low, windows don't load and if i set it to just right, cpu temp is high like 80c on idle. i tried 180, and it worked although cpu temp is still high like 70c @idle. I would tweak and tweak until i get this right. Thanks!

Typical of any city. It happens every day, everywhere! Why people of Memphis think this is beyond me. Watch the national news sometime.
Chicago/Detroit/East St. Louis, etc., etc., etc. All have failed, clueless dimocratic leadership. All have horrible crime rates.
But this is not the case in every city of siimilar size. Nashville, for an example, had 60 homicides in 2012 and the total population is 610,000, .01%. Memphis' population is 657,000 and there were 157 murders in 2012, .02%, double Nashville's rate. And this doesn't take in the attempted murders, assaults, and other mayhem that occurs daily in Memphis and dwarfs the same statistics in Nashville. And the comparison could be made over and over with other cities the same size and even larger than Memphis and most would have lower crime rates than Memphis. What's the problem?

HDR results from a single RED RAW clip in 2 steps:
1. Open AE.
2. Effect -> Color Correction -> Shadow/Highlight
Yep, its tonemapping without HDR. The reason this is very often used in conjuncture with HDR is because there are very few displays that can display a high DR - so tonemapping is used to trade global for local contrast.
Regards, Matt
The bottom line is that the example looks good. The clouds are not blown out and the shadows are not too crushed. Of course it's tone mapping. Every time we use a power window to protect or enhance a detail in the image we engage in a similar manipulation.
Looks great! How long did it take to do those 19 seconds of footage?
This is fairly standard. I saw this a couple of years ago at Plaster City. Certain scenes have a set dynamic range. Skew one layer towards a shadow setting and add a luminance key, with a highlight scene. Albeit this was in a Quantel Pablo suite, fairly pricey equipment. You can't get it all in one setting, but doing layers of grading, it looked amazing - just like we always did in film.
In RAW there is a range you can show in RGB (or broadcast color space) based on middle gray. Make layers and skew the middle point with luminance keys in post before you make the final grade, and it behaves just like many film transfers I have done. It was beautiful. As the Colorist said "All of the information is there if it is exposed right". Just like film, it was exactly what I would have done 10 years earlier in a film transfer. It is similar to HDR, we just did in post and it was no big deal. So I always wonder when people give film these huge dynamic ranges because we were always using digital tech to push it around. just the way we did before RED existed. My commercials didn't have as much range as they did after I spent $600 an hour in the DaVinci Telecine suite making power windows, and making multiple layers from my film to tape transfer.
My belief is we cheated film negative to fit the RGB video limitations for years with Telecine. But anything that is "NOT FILM" has to come out of the gate perfect, like tape with its narrow dynamic range. Because of years of film vs. video comparisons. If we just said there is no film or processing expense and proceeded along the previous mindset we would be way ahead.
Film to tape transfers especially with commercials were dealt with enormous Telecine hours until everything was perfect.

Halong Bay
Last Updated: 7th Jun 2012
The almost surreal landscapes created by the limestone tors and islands that rise out of Halong Bay in the North East of Vietnam have drawn travellers, photographers and adventures to the region for hundreds of years.
Now one of the most visited destinations in Vietnam, the region has a distinctly Chinese feel about it; however the name of the bay is drawn from a legend associated with defending the land against the Chinese. 'Halong' means 'Bay of the Descending Dragons' and local myths state that when the Chinese once tried to invade the land, the Gods sent a family of dragons to help protect the locals. The dragons created the islands that now rise up out of the South China Sea and even up until the 1800's, sailors reported seeing 'dragons' in the seas around the bay.
Contiki Tours that travel to Halong Bay stay overnight on a Junk boat cruising amongst the picturesque islands.

Gasparilla Island Water Association, Inc. has extended its water supply modifications through Monday, Aug. 19. The modification began on June 24, and was originally scheduled to end August 5.
With this change, GIWA disinfects the water with free chlorine rather than combined chlorine/ammonia (chloramines). This conversion to chlorine (which is a stronger disinfectant) from chloramines (which is a longer-lasting disinfectant) allows GIWA to perform a water distribution system purge as recommended by the Department of Environmental Protection for water utilities using chloramines as their primary disinfectant.
GIWA is currently conducting repairs inside their two-million gallon water storage tank on the island. Since chlorine is a stronger disinfectant, GIWA has elected to extend the purge for an additional two weeks while repairs are completed, the storage tank filled, disinfected and water samples collected for clearance to put it back in service.
This temporary change in disinfectant does not cause adverse health effects. However, during the period customers may experience a slight increase in taste, odor and color of the water due to the change in treatment.
Customers on kidney dialysis who use a proportioning machine to prepare dialysate at home are advised to contact their equipment supplier or physician.
Customers who have fish tanks or other aquatic species are advised to contact the local pet store to ensure proper pretreatment of the water before adding or changing the water in the tank to avoid any problems associated with chlorine.
If you have any questions concerning this change in disinfectants call 964-2423.

Selfridges Offers Gold Egg For Easter
Filed under: Dining
Given the price of gold these days I'm not sure if you are supposed to eat this or tuck it in the bank. Actually you can do both with this one. Selfridges is offering a chocolate egg created by Melt's head chocolatier Chika Watanabe with one troy ounce of gold bullion set into it. Selfridges tells the Telegraph that the coin used on the egg is a particularly rare one that the Royal Mint no longer produces and is worth £900. Each egg is made to order with a choice of single origin chocolates. It is decorated with 18 carat gold leaf and filled with salted caramels. It sells for £1,000.

We certainly love zoos here at Kidsreads --- did you hear the news that Smithsonian's National Zoo finally named their baby Giant Panda? It's called Bao Bao, which means treasure! Adorable. Still though, we think they'd be even more interesting if they were anything like the zoo featured in Eleanor Hawken's new series Sammy Feral's Diaries of Weird. In this series, Sammy writes about the family business --- a zoo filled with unusual creatures like yetis, werewolves, phoenixes and death worms. We were lucky enough to talk to Eleanor about the inspiration for the series, her favorite imagined creature, her lifelong love of Shakespeare and her worst-ever test grade. Read on!

Mass. utilities prepare for possible blizzard

WORCESTER, Mass. (WHDH) -- National Grid and NStar told 7News they already have crews ready for the storm's arrival after coming under intense criticism for their poor responses to severe storms in recent years.
With memories of snow storms and outages still fresh in his mind, Larry Moore, of Worceser, filled up gas cans to fill his generator Thursday afternoon should he lose power during the storm. "A lot of people, pardon the pun, were in the dark last time as far as knowing when they were going to get power back – how long it was going to be."
"We usually do in our area. So we just want to make sure we have enough fuel so we'll have enough for the generator for power," Moore said.
National Grid, with more than 1 million customers in Massachusetts, said Thursday it is developing crew assignments and readying equipment in anticipation of harsh weather that could dump two feet of snow and bring high winds with the potential to take down power lines.
NStar, which also has about 1 million customers in the state, says it is on "high alert" and plans to activate its emergency response plan. They have been holding meetings ever four hours ahead of the storm. They have also moved people into position early for what they call a Level 5 event.
"Level 5 is something that we very rarely declare. We anticipate that it will impact a substantial portion of our customer base, and it will be a multi-day event," an NStar spokesperson said.
NStar's emergency operations center is on alert and will be able to see outages and restore power remotely when possible. Community liaisons will also be in the link between communities and central operation.
NStar is positioning out-of-state crews as well.
"They're driving up here right now. They'll be received in receiving centers today, equipped with stock to get them started when the damage occurs, and they'll be rested and ready to go," an NStar spokesperson said.
The utilities are also urging customers to prepare by making sure they have plenty of batteries and emergency provisions.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Historic Scotland unveils diverse programme of festive events at Edinburgh & Stirling Castles
22 October 2013
Historic Scotland has a packed programme of seasonal events to keep visitors of all ages entertained over the festive period this year.
At Stirling Castle, visitors can get in the Christmas spirit on 3 December from 6-9pm with a Christmas shopping fayre in the Great Hall, against the backdrop of a roaring log fire and festive music. With a diverse range of suppliers, there will be a tempting selection of gifts on offer, as well as mulled wine and mince pies in the Christmas Café.
15 December will see a whole host of activities at the castle, from festive music and a Christmas puppet show in the afternoon to an evening of Christmas carols by candlelight at 7:30pm. Visitors will also have the opportunity to learn more about Christmas traditions and will get the chance see some of the traditional festive foods which would have been served at court.
Edinburgh Castle too will be getting into the festive spirit. From 21-24 December, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol will take centre stage in A Dickens Christmas, with costumed performers bringing the story to life.
From 28-31 December, visitors can meet two ladies from Mary, Queen of Scots' court as they celebrate the season, revealing what well-dressed women wore in 1563 and what sort of revelry would have been planned. They will also have the opportunity to visit the Queen's cook in the Laich Hall, while the royal guard will be on hand to display a selection of weaponry and fire his musket.
1 and 2 January will see No Christmas Here at the castle, wherein visitors can meet Cromwellian soldiers who have just gained entry after a long siege. They will learn all about Cromwell turning the Great Hall into a barracks and why Christmas was not to be celebrated.
Anyone looking for something extra-special this Christmas can treat themselves to a Christmas lunch at either castle. Available on selected dates throughout December, there are various packages to suit a range of budgets. From a three-course lunch in the Unicorn Café in Stirling Castle to a four-course lunch with matching wines served in the splendour of the Queen Anne Room at Edinburgh Castle, there's something for everyone.
Lorna Ewan, Head of Visitor Experience at Historic Scotland said: "Both Stirling and Edinburgh Castles are perfect backdrops for enjoying the festive season and this year we've got a whole host of exciting events planned around Christmas and Hogmanay. From classic carols by candlelight and a unique take on Dickens' A Christmas Carol to our programme of Christmas lunches, there's something for everyone."

Could you be royalty? Probably not. When kids think about royalty, kids usually think about Cinderella,Snow White or other fairy Princesses. On the other hand some kids think about real princesses like Princess Diana. Royalty
formed in medieval Europe centuries ago. What happened when a king died ? Well when a king dies his heirs would succeed him, usually according to the rules of inheritance of money and property. Other nobles would pass on their titles and positions to their heirs in a similar way. Not in every county people called a king a king. Here is a list of what kings are called in different countries.....
So could you be royalty? Probably not the odds are realy against you.
Wonder words :
hail- to bow and praise real enthusiastically
royalty- a person who has royal blood
territories- land separated in certain areas

Within this Program area, the goal of the CDDB is to expand contraceptive and reproductive evaluation, by:
These two objectives are temporally related; the first supports the conduct of research, the second ensures appropriate interpretation and distribution of research findings.
Traditionally, the Branch has evaluated contraceptive methods through epidemiological studies and clinical trials. Although the contraceptive discovery and development activities of the Branch, discussed earlier, allow the detection of acute side effects, the clinical trials required for approval for U.S. marketing involve sample sizes that are too small and/or follow-up periods that are too short to detect less frequent events. Thus, the CDDB also supports Phase IV, or post-marketing studies of available contraceptive methods, devices, or drugs. Further, some associations between contraceptive methods and reproductive or other outcomes require larger populations, special populations, or longer observation periods than those presently required for marketing approval.

Looking for my Grand mother & Grand fathers marriage certificate 1904 Wellington New Zealand
All of the birth certificates of the 10 children born from the union say,
"Marriage, was at Wellington March 16th in the year 1904"
But I canot find and marriage cert in the Marriages , birth and deaths office at lower Hutt.
The names I am looking for are George Charles Davis & Amy Hanham.
(I have Amys certifiactes birth & death , they show nothing.)
The names of George charles may be an alias so we may need to look for
"George Davies"; Charles Davies; "George Davis"; "George Charles Davies" The one thing that seems to be certian is the Date "16 th of March 1904"
maybe a search for marrriages on that date?
Can that be done?
can anyone suggest another place a marriage certiface may be stored other than the registery office?
thanks Ross Davis

Help ticket closed as problem was solved--Admin blocked the ad from ever appearing again. Woo-hoo, Admin!
It might show up a couple months from now. That is what happened with the video game ads.
I have reported several ads using the url. They are still here.
You can ask customer service abiut that. Perhaps they determined those particular ads are acceptable?

Have you ever seen the game World of Warcraft? Have you ever read about the children and adults that get addicted to that game?
It is evil. No excuses about it.
I wish I could capture the URL and report this - maybe somebody else seeing the same thing with a computer that has a right-click ability will copy the URL and report this ad - there's an ad on CM right now for "Inside Look of the Best Gay Parties"... definitely not something that needs to be posted on a Catholic website!
I noticed that a particular ad jams up my navigating CM. Whenever that "thousands of others will be praying for you" one with the clouds and the moving light rays appears on the screen, my whole computer system slows down. Three times yesterday, when I was on the Stream page and that ad appeared and I tried going to the My Topics page while that ad was still moving, my whole Internet connection froze up; I had to close the Internet and get back in. I tried letting the ad play out completely before I changed the page, and once it was finished, I had no trouble accessing another tab.
What gives?

What?? Bracketed with how much total stop latitude? The shadows are starved for light and therefore noisy indicating under exposure so the bracketing was not deep enough.
I'm no film school grad . . . but simple me would have exposed for the highlights on one frame, then shoot a frame 3-6 stops brighter for the shadows and chairs and a third frame for perfect midtones. With the Phase preview check the histograms to confirm exposure coverage then mash together in post. Or, if you want to do all in single frame like a rockstar, get a ladder and ND film to cut the ceiling lights to have the entire scene meter within the known DR of the camera.
That all being said . . . no way this scene as originally shot exceeded 18 stops of total DR. Did it??
Edit: I understand now from rereading your #113 post that the image I corrected in post #136 is a single frame from your 5 frame bracket - not a HDR composite of those 5 frames. I'll bet with the top and bottom frames from that bracket set could be made awesome in LR4 as a composite. Point is - software is outpacing hardware at this point for creating amazing images. If you haven't upgraded to LR4 yet - do so soon. Amazing

Back to the Future
From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Back to the Future Trilogy)
Back to the Future is a 1985 film about time travel. After traveling back to 1955, Marty McFly accidentally interferes with his parents' courtship and must make them fall in love... or else he will never be born.
- Directed by Robert Zemeckis. Written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale.
Doc Brown[edit]
- If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour, you're going to see some serious shit.
- I'm sure that in 1985 plutonium is available in every corner drug store, but in 1955 it's a little hard to come by.
- Marty [To Jennifer]: You know, this time it wasn't my fault. The Doc set all his clocks 25 minutes slow--
- Strickland [Suddenly appearing from behind]: "The Doc"? Am I to understand you're still hanging around with Dr. Emmett Brown, McFly? Tardy slip for you Ms. Parker. And one for you, McFly. I believe that makes four in a row. Now let me give you a nickel's worth of free advice, young man. This so called Dr. Brown is dangerous, he's a real nutcase. You hang around with him, you're gonna end up in big trouble.
- Marty: Oh, yes sir.
- Strickland: You got a real attitude problem, McFly. You're a slacker. You remind me of your father when he went here. He was a slacker, too.
- Marty: Can I go now, Mr. Strickland?
- Strickland: I noticed your band is on the roster for the dance auditions after school today. Why even bother, McFly? You don't have a chance. You're too much like your old man. No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley!
- Marty: Yeah, well, history is gonna change.
- Lorraine [On Jennifer]: I don't like her, Marty. Any girl who just calls up a boy is just asking for trouble.
- Linda: Oh, Mom, there's nothing wrong with calling a boy.
- Lorraine: I think it's terrible! Girls chasing boys. When I was your age I never chased a boy or called a boy or sat in a parked car with a boy.
- Linda: Then how am I supposed to ever meet anybody?
- Lorraine: Well, it will just happen, like the way I met your father.
- Linda: That was so stupid! Grandpa hit him with the car.
- Lorraine: [wistfully] It was meant to be. Anyway, your Grandpa hit him with the car, and brought him into the house. He seemed so helpless, like a little lost puppy. And my heart just went out to him.
- Linda: Yeah, Mom, we know. You've told us this story a million times. You felt sorry for him, so you decided to go with him to the Fish Under the Sea dance.
- Lorraine: No, no, it was the Enchantment Under the Sea dance.
- Marty: Wait a minute. Wait a minute Doc, uh, are you telling me you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?
- Doc: The way I see it, if you're going to build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?
- Doc: Tell me, Future Boy, who's President of the United States in 1985?
- Marty: Ronald Reagan.
- Doc: Ronald Reagan? The actor? [rolls his eyes] Ha! Then who's vice-president, Jerry Lewis? I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady?
- Marty: Whoa, wait. Doc!
- Doc: And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury!
- Marty: Are you trying to tell me that my mother has got the hots for me?
- Doc: Precisely!
- Marty: Whoa, this is heavy.
- Doc: There's that word again: "heavy." Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?
- [George McFly comes to Lorraine Baines at the local diner]
- George: Lorraine. My density has brought me to you.
- Lorraine Baines: [non-plussed] What?
- George: [trying to utter line written on notebook without being caught] Oh. What I meant to say was...
- Lorraine: Wait a minute. Don't I know you from somewhere?
- George: Yes. Yes. I'm George. George McFly. I'm your density. I mean, your destiny.
- Lorraine: Wow.
- Lorraine: Marty, why are you so nervous?
- Marty: Lorraine, have you ever been in a situation where you knew you had to act a certain way, but when you got there, you didn't know if you could go through with it?
- Lorraine: You mean, like how you're supposed to act on a first date?
- Marty: Well, sort-sort of.
- Lorraine: I think I know exactly what you mean. You know what I do in those situations?
- Marty: What?
- Lorraine: I don't worry. [kisses him hard, then stops and pulls back] This is all wrong. I don't know what it is, but when I'm kissing you, it's like I'm kissing... my brother. I guess that's doesn't make any sense, does it?
- Marty: Believe me, it makes perfect sense.
- Marty: What about all that talk about screwing up future events? The space-time continuum?
- Doc: Well, I figured, what the hell?
- Meet Marty McFly. He's broken the time barrier. Busted his parents' first date. And, maybe, botched his chances of ever being born.
- 17 year old Marty McFly got home early last night. 30 years early.
- Marty McFly just broke the time barrier. He's only got one week to get it fixed.
- Marty McFly's having the time of his life. The only question is -- what time is it?
- He was never in time for his classes... He wasn't in time for his dinner... Then one day... he wasn't in his time at all.
- Bumping into your parents is no big deal unless you bump into them before you were born.
- He's the only kid ever to get into trouble before he was born.
- Hello? Anybody home? Think McFly, Think!

Halloween is a fun time of year filled with costumes, parties and sweet treats. But, sometimes parents worry that all those sugary treats can lead to cavities and poor dental health. The good news: It's not what children eat, but how often, and candy can be OK if children and parents are conscientious.

Oktoberfest kicks off this weekend, so let the beer-drinking season commence! You'd think modern women would be free to consume whatever alcoholic beverage they choose without it accompanying stereotypes, but alas, it's been a love-hate history of beer ads for women. The '50s and '60s may not have been forward-thinking eras for females, but that doesn't mean sexist beer advertisements and marketing campaigns aren't any less common nowadays. Advertisers are old pros at using clichés and generalizations about women in hopes of getting them to buy their hops. Let's put on our beer goggles and take a look at female-targeted beer ads over the years.
Channel Your Inner Irishwoman: Vintage St. Paddy's Day Ads
St. Patrick's Day is today, and we're ready for some green-wearing, Guinness-drinking fun! Inspired by the Irish holiday and our love of vintage advertising, we've rounded up some old-school St. Paddy's Day-inspired ads featuring women for everything from cigarettes to Irish whiskey. Click through the retro ads now, and may the luck o' the Irish be with you!
9 Stylish (and Simple) St. Paddy's Outfit Tips Straight From the Stars
Happy St. Patrick's Day! For green-themed styling inspiration, just look to Olivia Wilde in a daytime ensemble of green jeans and a striped top, Alessandra Ambrosio in a bright green Michael Kors sweater and skinny jeans, and Olivia Munn sporting a lime-green minidress. Step inside to get a closer look at these green-wearing celebrities, and glean even more outfit inspiration from Olivia Palermo, Eva Longoria, and Naomi Watts.
The Most Memorable Drunk Moments in Movies
Since St. Patrick's Day is today, it's only appropriate to highlight the most memorable drunk scenes in film — the good, the bad, and the laugh-out-loud funny. In honor of the beer-filled holiday, we're taking a look at unforgettable drunk moments from iconic movie parties, awkward hookup scenes, and more. From John Belushi chugging Jack Daniel's in Animal House to Renée Zellweger singing "All by Myself" in Bridget Jones's Diary, take a look at the best, most memorable drunk moments in movies.
How to Give Your Big Day the Luck O' the Irish
It's St. Patrick's Day, and we can't help but feel the Irish love. We're all about green beer, shamrocks, and leprechauns, but there's a lot more to Irish tradition than the commercialized side of the holiday — especially when it comes to Irish wedding traditions. You don't have to be an Irish bride-to-be to appreciate these sentimental Irish and Celtic traditions, which have inspired some of our most well-known big phrases like "tying the knot" and "honeymoon." See how you can add a little luck o' the Irish to your wedding now!
Power Hour: Political Figures Drinking Beer
Every politician needs some luck of the Irish sometimes, and that often comes in the form of beer. While enjoying a basketball game or conducting international diplomacy, there's nothing like beer to loosen up a politico. Plus, cheers-ing your constituents on the campaign trail is a classic move to show you're a man or woman of the people. St. Paddy's Day, which falls on Sunday, calls for some suds. So to get you in the spirit, check out politicians like President Barack Obama, who drank Guinness in Ireland with Michelle, or President George W. Bush, who threw back a nonalcoholic version in Germany, enjoying some beer.
Do You Know Your Guinness?
St. Patrick's Day is tomorrow, and the Irish holiday just wouldn't be the same without a pint of Guinness in hand. You may have mastered the stout's double pour, but what do you know about the history of this legendary beer brand? Take the quiz to find out!
Happy St. Paddy's Day: 5 Fun Films Set in Ireland
St. Patrick's Day is this weekend! While you're getting your green on, I thought I'd take the opportunity to call out a few movies that I love, which happen to all be set in Ireland. The beautiful backdrop can be romantic, perilous, good for comedy or drama — in any case, take a look at the films that have the luck of the Irish.
Pretty, Individual Grasshopper Pies For St. Patrick's Day
No, there are no insects involved in grasshopper pie. We're not sure why this mint-chocolate pie obtained the name it did, but we do know that these mint-green miniature pies are a festive way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. The mason jars make it easy to transport the pie; simply screw on the tops and garnish the pies with whipped cream when you're ready to serve.
Crush Oreo cookies to create the chocolate pie crust, and top each jar with a hefty scoop of minty, marshmallowy filling. Garnish the mason jars with a tall peak of whipped cream, a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips, and a mint leaf.
Start Off St. Paddy's Day With a Bowl of Irish Oatmeal
Recipes for green food, whiskey-infused treats, indulgent potato dishes, and other Irish delights abound, but — believe it or not — I'm most partial to an Irish ingredient with humble, hearty origins: oats. So when we received a shipment of three varieties of the Irish grain, my eyes lit up and my stomach immediately began to grumble. A little simmering and stirring later, I sat down to a hearty bowl of each seasoned with naught but a pinch of salt and a pat of butter to let the true texture and flavor of each variety shine. Keep reading to learn which tin (or bag) is right for your morning routine.
From left to right: McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal, Kilbeggan Organic Porridge Oatlets, Flahavan's Irish Steel Cut Oatmeal
McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal
Chances are, if you've had steel-cut oats stateside, McCann's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal
was the variety you tucked into. Chewy, dense, and nutty, I consider them to be a standard-bearer of sorts and regularly turn to their gold-bedecked tin when simmering up my morning pot of oats or to add texture to a big batch of baked oatmeal.
Keep reading for my thoughts on Kilbeggan and Flahavan's oaten offerings.
