Wow! That looks fantastic! Great job The custom retention bracket you made is excellent! Nicely bolted on, too. So you were able to grind away enough from the Uni-Sink to clear the heatpipes. That's ideal as you were then able to use all of the rest of the Uni-Sink. Doesn't the card look so much better installed now, with the stock black backplate attached? And no more bowing, the Uni-Sink and backplate keep it nice and straight. Testing time! You did get much better ram cooling, that's quite a jump in the clock speeds. The Uni-Sink and backplate are much beefier than the aluminum sinks and do seem to be dissipating more heat. As I also found, the Enzos didn't work that great on the vrm's, nice to have that big sink attached to them now. Very impressive, you have a real cool-running 280 now. I don't think anyone could do any better than that on air cooling. What fan are you using on it? I strapped two 120mm Skythes together and had to strap them to the heatsink for full coverage, when I first did mine. But you might be fine with one fan mounted normally. You da man
Thanks It is nice to do away with the bowing but I am up in the air on the backplate. I like it but I did grow to like the look of the bare pcb and sinks. There was one problem because of my impatience. Apparently 4-40 screws are a hair too big to fit through the mounting holes on the pcb so I had to tap them out. I'm pretty sure that that voided the warranty. Either way I think that it was worth it. Sadly I can't really use my old test results as a comparison since I have added slower case fans since that test. My rig was just too loud and it did raise the temps of my card and motherboard a bit. It was a little warm yesterday and when running GPUTool to scan for artifacts at the default window size the vrms seemed to top out at 90C at 725mhz while drawing around 70a according to rivatuner and they still hit 100C in Furmark but it took a while to get there. Honestly I was hoping for a bit better but it is still an improvement with the vrms, seems like about 10C difference. Aside from the vrms I was shocked by the difference in memory clocks, I really wasn't expecting that. I'm using a 1900rpm S-Flex, I may try a second like you had mounted but I still had to support the back of the card since this thing is HEAVY. Yeah, I'm not sure that I could get much better on air with this, I'm happy with the performance. I would love to see what this thing could do on water but I doubt that will ever happen.
With or without the backplate, you can experiment with that. I like the look of it with the backplate, but when I had 8 full-height Enzotech copper sinks attached to the back ram chips, I would think it had to run that ram cooler than the stock metal plate would. One of the differences of the 275's etc., is that there are no ram chips mounted on the back of the card. Also no backplate for the EVGA 275's, although a custom one is available. I also voided the warranty on my 280 when I cut off the stock vrm sink, but I can live with that. Nice thing about the lifetime warranty is knowing that EVGA will ship you another working replacement for your card if it gets borked, under warranty conditions, of course For me, after each next-gen release, the warranty becomes less of a factor, I usually have sold off the card by then, I actually did have the 280 sold off before I was asked if I could buy it back! The 4-40's are stronger than the thinner bolts you would have had to use for the stock mounting holes, so I think it was worth drilling the holes out a bit. I see what you are saying about comparing temperature results. Same with me, I had three 120's stuffed into the front of my Antec 902, along with the other 120 and 200mm, I had one on the side panel. I have since cut back to two fronts and none on the side, reduces the noise somewhat. You went to quieter fans, a bit less airflow but a lot easier on the ears! Your current temps. have got to be an improvement. As I recall, I went beyond 100C on the vrm's very quickly with Furmark, up to the high teens after a few minutes. Your current results are much better, and that's with less case airflow then you had before. I'd say to stay with your one Skythe fan, I don't think two really made much difference for me. I think we still have quite a while to enjoy our cards, they will play today's games just fine, and any future releases for some time to come. DX11 means diddly to me right now, and Fermi or whatever it's called still isn't even available yet. ATI's new cards look good, but I chose to stick with my proven last-gen Nvidia's. But I have already started scheming up a plan to cool these 275's a bit more, with SLI, the HR-03 isn't an option, but I do like the specs. on the new Accelero, and it appears to be well-suited to the 275 and SLI. Looks like it will be a while before they are available, but I will be looking at the reviews in the meantime
Nice looking card you ended up with BababooeyHTJ Did you test the memory stability? Big boost indeed you got there, always though GDDR3 wasn't so picky about cooling, but seems it'll help. Here's another possibility for dual slot SLI users: Scythe Setsugen GPU cooler tested http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/16556/1/ Though no pictures of it installed in card, but if Thermalright T-Rad2 fits with 12mm fan, sure that has to be a bit less. Has NVIO sink and VRM sink for GTX 260/280 too. For the price (33€) it's almost worth buying just for the sinks to Accelero and use the cooler for some other card
Has anyone tested the VRM temps with this new Accelero Xtreme GTX Pro? I'm curious if they have fixed the problems with the older one.
It's not available yet and I doubt it has any VRM sink for GTX 280. Just individual sinks that could maybe used, but are not going to offer that much improvements. The Pro is designed for 55nm cards and they don't have VRM issues and it comes with sinks for all.
Well damn, I may just try out putting some aftermarket sinks then. What is recommended again? Was it those Scythe sinks?
Depends on the card you have. The original version has sinks needed for 65nm cards, but VRM cooling is lacking for GTX 280. For 55nm cards Scythe sink pack works, you can find examples in the #270 post.
Well then it's Accelero + stock VRM part (on first page) + lower voltages and it's as good as it gets. There won't be anything better coming for the VRM cooling in these cards.
Hey, I have this GTX280 backplate, how do I remove the glue / stickers . It's so sticky. I tried to scrape it with a knife but still the sticker ''glue'' leaves some weird spots/marks. onboard/anyone i need your help!
You have any rubbing alcohol? It would melt the glue and get it off. If no such thing available, then some water (maybe a little bit of soap) and rub with your finger. Also believe it or not, dust helps Find a dusty spot (for example monitor top) and stick finger there and then on the glue. Rub and repeat. That is for just glue, if it still has sticker on, then water first.
Haha, great Shouldn't have any VRM temp problems with that Maybe peel of the right heatpipe black sticker. It's there just so that copper doesn't show between the original fan blades. btw. did you notice anything coming out of the pipes while cutting the stock cooler? Nice to see how thick they are in reality.
okay thanks, the glue is really sticky , ugh the pipes were just hollow from the inside just like this : nothing special i guess
use some aftershave always works for me alternatively if it's just a plate that can be cleaned there's always wd40 but that takes some getting of by hand (easier than glue though)
My apologies for not posting this sooner after telling you all about me tossing my AC coolers and getting the t-rad2s. Here's what they look like with the Scythe fans. One of the supplied fans is on the right og the picture. And after installing one card. Still blocking the PCI slot but that's OK. And now for installing the second one. Daylight between the cards and even the power supply. No real tests yet but I'm not exceeding 70 degrees C on one card while the other is running just under 60 while folding. With the Element S case there are spots to mount 2 60 mm fans which I did as well but are not in the pics. It's cool enough, very quiet, and can SLI.
Nice job setting up the T-Rad2 GTX's. Are you using two 100mm Scythe fans? Keep us informed on their performance. I bought two for my 275's at Xmas and am testing one now. I chose to run one 275 for now with the T-Rad2 GTX as I am experimenting with different fans to try to get the best results. So far, I am not too impressed. I am running two tests for each setup, Idle for 15 min. and Load running OCCT's version of Furmark for about 7 min., enough to get the gpu plenty hot. To sum it up, I got terrible results with the stock TR 27cfm 92mm fans, about the same temps. as the stock cooler at 100% fan speed, about 80C. on load. One 54cfm 120mm Noctua was only slightly better, 79C on load! Using my fastest fan, an 87cfm 120mm Panaflo, the load temps dropped to 73C. (I had a Silverstone 110cfm kicking around which I also installed to test but it was d.o.a.!) I am not planning on buying some insane cfm Delta fans to get the necessary cfm needed to get the T-Rad2 GTX performing as I would like, so I may not use the Thermalright coolers after all. OnBoard: If you are still monitoring this great thread of yours Happy New Year I have only found two reviews on the Accelero Xtreme GTX Pro, both from Germany: http://translate.google.ca/translat...&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&sa=N&start=20 This other one is not translated but has some good tests: http://www.awardfabrik.de/kuhlung-luft/arctic-cooling-accelero-xtreme-gtx-pro.html The results look very good for the new Accelero. Kind of kicking my rear for not trying out the new Accelero first, but I may buy one anyhow just to compare it's performance with the disappointing T-Rad2 GTX. I just can't justify fitting a loud 120mm x 38mm or two 92mm screamers on the T-Rad2 GTX's to get a still very low temperature reduction
Yeah, I'm here. Thanks, happy new year you and rest too Sorry to hear about the poor cooling performance of T-rad. Forgot to put a link when I spotted the new Pro version coming to quietpc.com, then it said little over a month. Now it says: Accelero Xtreme GTX Pro [280 due in 4 days] So not long to go for those that were waiting for it. And reviews of course are a sign of it coming too. Off to read them now, will edit if there is something interesting. edit: hmm nice, they tested with GTX 280 and got good VRM temps with the new sinks. Granted the fan speed was quite high, but even on stock PWM settings way better than the old VRM plate. Though that just with Wow, hardly comparable to FurMark The maximum value with the FUR benchmark today we save. <- bad google translation, but still sounds like temps hit quite high. So everyone buy the new Pro version. It should fit all cards and offer adequate VRM cooling straight from the box. But if you are handy and don't need the new sinks, you get the old version (with same cooler) cheaper.
Retro, I installed two of the Scythe Kaze Jyu Slim 100 mm, 2000 RPM, 27.6 cfm model per cooler. The cooler and fans definitely don't have the cooling capacity of the AC but I could not install both of my videocards to run SLI. All I can really say about their performance is that compared to the stock coolers is that they are much quieter and cooler while performing folding@home work units. Versus the AC, temps went up 3-5 degrees C depending on what the card was working on.
Hey, I'm having weird overheating problems, but I dont know whats overheating. Noticed it when I played Cryisis, my core temp is really good and VRM temp is not even over 90. It cant be my VRAM they dont really get that hot and they all have sinks on them. So what is it? How I know its overheating issue well, when I open my window the white artifacts stops. So what is it?
tjmagneto: Thanks for the info. The Scythe 100mm fans fit really well on your T-Rad and certainly outperform the stock TR 92mm fans. I am going to do the opposite and switch to the Accelero's. I should have enough flexibility for sli with them, as I also have an EVGA FTW200 (3-way sli-capable) board to install, and I may even drop the power supply mounting a bit if more room is needed. OnBoard: Here's a shot of my new "toys". I can finally provide some input on the Accelero now. Looking forward to installing and testing these beasts
Nice, double pleasure Take plenty of installation pics =) Not that they differ, but the mounting seems more refined. Will be interesting to know how Fermi comes out with, is it same hole spacing than GT200. Older Accelero had more playroom with it's alternate mounting holes, if they go smaller.
Nearly missed your post, wasn't on new posts list when I last logged in, but here goes. Most likely VRMs. What is your fan speed? On summer I noticed graphics anomalies when playing for a long period, higher fan speed fixed that. You're card name would help and also room temperature, but higher fan speed with EVGA Precision for example should fix it. The default 40% is too low and it only goes up if core goes up to about 80C.
No idea what Fermi will have for hole spacing, but I bet it will be different. The "Pro" has fixed hole spacing for the 200's. A few shots and comments on my initial Accelero installation: Stock heatsink and bare GTX275. Opening up the clamshell, lots of sinks for most cards, pre-applied MX2 which I scrubbed off and applied MX3 on the entire gpu base. The sinks I mounted were all from the Accelero kit. They stick well (after the eraser and isopropyll alcohol treatment). The new Pro version really suits the GTX275, the sinks all fit like a glove, and the vrm sink was sized perfectly. A comparison to the T-Rad2 with a 120x38mm Panaflow mounted on it for max. airflow, but not very sli friendly! A shot of the card installed, not going to sli the cards until the motherboard upgrade is done. The temperature reduction at load was better than the T-Rad2 by 14C. (66C. vs 80C.) running OCCT'S GPU test. But that was with the stock fans on both coolers, both running at 100%. The T-Rad2 did get down to 73C. with the 120X38mm 86cfm Panaflow, a good fan but very expensive, bulky, and loud! The T-Rad2's stock 2x92mm fans are very quiet, but barely move any air, not even able to better the stock cooler's results when running at 100%. Idle temps. dropped as well with the Accelero, by about 2 degrees. The Accelero has provided the best results for me. I will post some screenshots later with comparisons of the stock, T-Rad2, and Accelero showing the load temps. using OCCT's version of Furmark. I'm very pleased with this cooler, it's excellent sink kit, and how quiet it is even at 100%. Another difference from Thermalright's coolers, the fans use a stock connector for the card's fan header, no separate molex or motherboard connections needed. The gpu mounting screws on the back of the card fit flush, not sticking out like TR's. This is a well designed cooler, certainly the next best thing to water for my needs

Because office cleaning normally takes place after business hours, you are left with evaluating the results at the begining of the Arkansas work day. This means that many office cleaning companies will tidy the office, take out trash and superficially cleanup surfaces. However this type of office cleaning, while it looks good on the surface, will often leave areas unclean that are not normally inspected. Many office cleaning companies based in the state of Arkansas will use cleaning chemicals which give the impression that things are clean by using masking smells that give the impression things are cleaner than they are.
Commercial Janitorial is different, we clean Arkansas ' offices using green cleaning techniques that first and foremost are focused on healthy offices. This means we use supplies such as microfiber cloths, green cleaning chemicals and materials that not only clean surfaces but clean the office environment.

Looking for camera equipment insurance in Canada
Looking for camera equipment insurance in Canada
I can recommend you a great place. PM me.
Hey Rob, thanks your mail box is full... could you email me at rory"at"minefilms"dot"com
Talk to mike at front row insurance in Vancouver. Great guy.
CG&B handle a lot of people here in Toronto http://www.cgbgroup.com/business_insurance/media.html. You can talk to Judi Heron. They know our industry.
I second CG&B. Been dealing with them since the beginning. I've never had a claim myself, but several people that rent from us had incidents with their insurance also under CG&B. Super quick, friendly, and relatively cheap.
Since you shoot all around the world, pay careful attention to the small print. Your policy will probably require specific add-ons when you shoot in the U.K. etc.
Hi Guys, can you please discuss what you find here. It's a help full thread, and I'd hate to miss something valuable. When you say CG&B is cheap, what is cheap? I have a policy with them and would second Judi Heron being easy to work with, but the policy is freakin expensive compared to the USA, also they made me take out a liability policy on my camera which is NUTS (considering I shoot wildlife in Africa) and expensive. My policy was around $2000. I'd love to find a much better option.
The guys in the states have posted about a company called insuremyequipment.com and they pay about 500$
I third, fourth, whatever - Judi Heron at CG&B. They know their stuff and respect our industry.
I am currently insured through CG&B with Louise. My yearly coverage is under $2000 and I couldn't find anything in Canada in that price range. And it is a big bonus they know the industry and not just selling insurance on "x" value amount of electronics. I would recommend looking into them

Canada's capital city could hardly be lovelier. Perched upon Parliament Hill are Ottawa's gothic government buildings, set against the slow-moving Ottawa River. Miles of late-Victorian brick houses dot neighborhoods. Canadian art and history are on display at museums throughout the city, including the impressive Canadian Museum of Civilization. Ottawa makes it easy to enjoy its beauty through outdoor pursuits. The tidy, hand-dug Rideau Canal has bisected this city since 1832 and remains popular with cruisers, bicyclists and ice skaters.
Things to Do
Wander the grounds of Parliament Hill and spend the morning watching the Changing of the Guard before the ornate Gothic spires of government buildings. Colorful, carved ravens and fierce wooden bears adorn First Nations totem poles, greeting visitors to the Canadian Museum of Civilization. Exhibits recount Canada's long history with prehistoric weapons, textiles and tools of 16th-century New France. The museum also celebrates the lives of its most prominent historical figures, such as explorer Samuel de Champlain and writer Gabrielle Roy.
Nightlife and Entertainment
Canadian and international performances take the spotlight at the National Arts Centre, entertaining visitors with ballet, theatre and orchestral works within view of the Rideau Canal and Parliament Hill. For live alternative music, fun cocktails and wine bars, head to the ByWard Market. Bar 56 is a martini lounge; Chateau Lafayette, established in 1849, is Ottawa's oldest tavern; and Must is a sophisticated wine and tapas bar.
Restaurants and Dining
You'll find whatever you're hungry for at the ByWard Market. One of Canada's oldest and largest markets since 1826, shoppers fill their baskets with locally raised meat and fresh sausage from the 260 stalls every day. Follow your nose to the mingled scents of Mediterranean roasted garlic, Thai curry and fresh Atlantic seafood permeating the market -- it's home to 88 restaurants and more than a dozen pubs. Pick up a beaver tail for dessert; it's a cinnamon and sugar-sprinkled fritter found only in Ottawa.
Active Pursuits
The tidy Rideau Canal slices through Ottawa and offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation. In warm weather, tour boats ply the canal's waters, while guides offer commentary on the city's history and attractions. A popular paved bicycle trail borders the canal and spreads outward from there, extending over 100 miles -- a boon for this city of bike-lovers. In winter, the frozen canal becomes the world's longest ice rink, providing both recreation and an alternate mode of transportation for Ottawans.
It's easy to explore the capital of Canada with American Airlines flights to Ottawa. From visiting museums to enjoying its beautiful natural setting, there are many things to do in Ottawa for an enjoyable getaway. Get ready for an exciting experience with our picks for seeing the city.
As the Canadian capital, located in Ontario, there are plenty of activities in Ottawa that capture the country's spirit and heritage. Start by visiting Parliament Hill, set on a hilltop affording a great view of the city. It's the seat of the federal government and also the setting for national celebrations throughout the year. Guided tours are available for the public galleries and to the top of Peace Tower, which features an observation deck where you can enjoy 360-degree views of Ottawa. During the summer, you can also watch a morning changing of the guard ceremony on the front lawn of Parliament Hill.
The city is also known for its breadth of museums and galleries, and spending an afternoon on a museum crawl is one of our favorite things to do in Ottawa. The National Gallery of Canada is located near Parliament Hill, so it's a great place to begin. You can't miss it thanks to a giant bronze sculpture of a spider in front of the building created by Louise Bourgeois. Inside you'll be able to see an expansive collection of Canadian works, including pieces by Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, along with international collections and exhibitions. Next door to the National Gallery is the Royal Canadian Mint, where you can take a guided tour and watch coins being made and even see what $1 million in gold looks like. At the Canadian Museum of Civilization, located across the Ottawa River from Parliament Hill, you'll be able to learn about the country's indigenous heritage. It features the world's largest indoor collection of totem poles and the First Peoples Hall is devoted to the cultural origins of Canada.
If you're interested in more adventurous activities in Ottawa, you're in luck. With the Ottawa River running through the city, there are many ways to enjoy its scenic natural beauty. Whitewater rafting, kayaking and wilderness tours are all fun options that will get your adrenaline pumping. On land, Ottawa has a great network of trails throughout the city for biking or walking, and you can go mountain biking in Gatineau Park. Of course, in the winter you can enjoy skiing with cross-country trails in the city and downhill trails about an hour's drive away.
It's a city full of fun discoveries, and the inviting atmosphere makes a visit fun and memorable. American Airlines has made it easy to fly to Ottawa with convenient flights and trip-planning information -- start planning your getaway today.

Walker's Landing, a 3-year-old colt prepared by Donna Freyer's Custom Care Equine in Camden is proving to be a horse for all courses.
New coach. New uniforms. Same goals. The Kershaw County Post 17 American Legion baseball team kicks off its 20-game season with a two-game homestand, beginning tonight when the locals host Dalzell-Shaw in the 7 p.m. opener at American Legion Park in Camden. The 17ers are under the direction of first-year head coach and former USC pitcher, Curtis Johnson. KC will stay at home on Tuesday as Hartsville rolls into town before ...
Five days after his team lost to Bluffton in the second round of the AAA state tennis playoffs, Camden head coach Roger Smoak took a Sunday afternoon drive. While passing by the Rectory Square tennis courts, he saw five of his players (including four returnees) out on the court playing doubles.
If his former players could give Mark Wade a going away present, it would probably be the oversized truck tires which the retiring Lugoff-Elgin strength and conditioning coach would make players flip down the field during the most brutally hot days of the summer.
Copycats and sports, oftentimes, go hand-in-hand. So, if you are going to take a page out of someone else's book, you might as well shoot for the moon.
Sometimes, nothing beats a family discussion at the dinner table to help a young person sort out a potential problem.
Decisions. Decisions. Decisions. When Blake Outlaw arrives at USC-Lancaster for the start of the 2012 baseball season, he will give Lancers' head coach Steve Williams several options as to where to bat the former Lugoff-Elgin standout in the order and in the field. Outlaw cemented that he will join fellow Demon teammate Jacob Murphy on Williams' squad after signing a national letter-of intent with the school last week. Murphy and Outlaw will ...
You might call Tyler Horton a late arrival on the tennis scene. But that did not prevent the University of South Carolina-Lancaster from calling on him when searching for a quality addition to its team.
Camden resident and Peachtree Racing president John Fort will try for a second Grade I victory in 15 days when Flashpoint takes to the race track in Saturday's $1 million Preakness Stakes at the Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore.
Being a member of the Camden High track team is not the easiest gig in high school sports.
Record-setting Camden High girls' soccer player India Robinson has been named to the AAA All-State soccer team after having helped the Lady Bulldogs to their third consecutive Region 6-AAA championship this year.
When your substitutes play as much as your starters, it's because of one of two things; either you are very good or, well ... you are struggling.
For some high school basketball players, the season does not begin until the coach opens the door to a warm gym the first day or so in November.
It's not often that a team gets a chance to exhale when competing for a berth in the state championship as compared to trying to secure a slot in the Upper State tournament.
One call. One shot. One changed game. When Airport's Emily Jeffcoat was awarded a free kick after Camden was called for a foul in the closing minute of Wednesday's second round AAA state girls soccer tournament match, the Airport forward delivered a kick from which the host Lady Bulldogs could not recover. Building on the momentum created by the controversial call, the Lady Eagles carried a 1-0 lead into the locker room. ...
Hammond opened its game at the Camden Military Academy with a 17-0 run and coasted to an 85-22 win over the Spartans in a Saturday matinee played at the White Field House.
Part roller derby. Part bar room brawl.
Sometimes, the less said the better.
After putting in countless hours during what was a wet summer, the Camden High girls' basketball team reaped the rewards of their hard work on a late autumn night when drops of rain fell from the sky.
If you are old enough to remember when a record would skip and play the same part of the song over and over again on a record player, you can probably sympathize with the plight which Camden head coach Ron McKie found himself in on Tuesday.
While it may not have been on the flat track, The Elkstone Group LLC's Bodie Island roared to a 2 ¾-length win a short trip from where he was developed when he jumped his way to victory in the $20,000 Hobkirk Hill Starter Allowance at the Nov. 23 Marion duPont Scott Colonial Cup in Camden.
Camden High offensive tackle Mauric James was selected to play in the 2013 Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl in Myrtle Beach on Saturday, Dec. 14.

This is the fifth article in the SharePoint Online planning guide for Office 365 for enterprises. This article discusses the features in SharePoint Online that enable you to design a professional-looking web presence for your organization.
You should read this article if you are responsible for creating and customizing the public-facing Website for a Microsoft SharePoint Online for Office 365 for enterprises site collection, or if you are interested in understanding the scope of customizations possible for the public-facing Website.
Top of Page
In addition to providing a secure intranet for your organization, SharePoint Online provides a public-facing Website where customers, clients, and others can find your business online.
This public site, called the Website, can be your organization's web presence. Site visitors will find this site by typing your organization's URL in their browser.
Determining the content of your Website is an important part of the planning process for your web presence. Depending on the customizations you make, the site can provide site visitors with information about your organization and the services it provides, contact information, videos and photos, a map showing your office location, and more.
Because it's a SharePoint site, the Website content and page elements, including images, templates, documents and pages, are stored in libraries. By default, the site contains libraries named Web Pages, Images, Documents, and Templates.
By default, the Website also contains a set of common webpages, such as Home, About Us, Contact Us, and Site Map. You can either modify the default pages in the Website or create new ones according to your plans.
To create your public Website, you need to create a site collection and designate it as the public-facing site. A tenancy can contain only one Public Website site collection.
For step-by-step guidance on creating a public-facing Website, see the article Set up a public Website. This article explains how to create a public website with either the default domain or a custom domain name. It also explains how you can change the domain name for an existing public Website.
Before you begin customizing your Website, it helps to consider some basic questions:
Some planning questions may not be obvious until you begin working with your site. Because the Web Site Design Tool helps simplify the design process, it's easy to explore different ideas. You'll find more information about available customizations and the design process in the following section.
Find more information about customizing the Website at the following links:
When you design your Website, you use the tools and tabs in the ribbon. Even if you lack web design experience, the Website's streamlined layouts and easy-to-use design tools can enable you to quickly design a professional-looking Website. By customizing the site's theme, graphics, fonts, and color scheme, or by adding maps, slideshows, and videos, you can create a web presence that reflects your organization's branding. With features such as the ability to add a slide show, map, or video to a page, you can find the right functionality to interact with your site visitors.
The tools and tabs in the ribbon on the Website pages help simplify the process of designing and customizing pages. The ribbon contains three main tabs, which are always visible, and one contextual tab, which appears when you edit an image. Each tab has options relevant to a set of tasks:
Find more information about the design environment in Quick Reference Guide: The user interface in Website and Web Site Design Tool.
Note Permissions determine the level of access you get to the Website, including Web Site Design Tool. If you are assigned to the Full Control or Designer permission level, you have full access to using Web Site Design Tool and the Website. If you have a Read permission level, you do not get any access to the Website, including Web Site Design Tool.
Some customizations apply to the entire Website, while others apply only to a single page. For example, when you select a theme for your site or customize the header, footer, and navigation, the changes are applied to each page in the Website. On the other hand, when you add a page, change a page layout or a page title, or add an image, those changes are made at the page level on your public-facing site.
Site customizations are global changes that affect all pages. The following customizations apply to the entire Website:
Each page has several different zones with placeholder content inside of it. The content inside the zones is editable, so you can click inside the zone, delete the placeholder content, and then type your own text. You can add text, images, hyperlinks, tables, or gadgets inside a zone. When editing a page, you will see several zones, depending on the page layout. The following customizations apply to a single page:
A gadget is a stand-alone application that you can add to a Website page to make it look more dynamic. A few examples of gadgets are videos, blogs, maps, stock tickers, or slideshows.
A wide variety of gadgets are available to you in Web Site Design Tool. Most gadgets are simple to use and do not require coding experience, with the exception of the HTML gadget, which renders custom HTML code. Gadgets provide additional services for your site visitors. For example, if you want site visitors to know the latest stock price of your company, you can insert the Stock list gadget pointing to your company's symbol in your Web page.
The following table lists the available gadgets in Web Site Design Tool.
Note The availability of the following gadgets in Web Site Design Tool may depend on the locale of your SharePoint Online account.
Add a map and directions from Bing Maps for an address.
Tip Use the Map & Directions gadget to provide directions to your office location to site visitors.
Add custom HTML code including hyperlinks to images, a web page, a document or an email address.
Tip Use the HTML gadget to add links to partner web sites by using appropriate images.
Embed a video from Bing Video, YouTube, or any other video hosting service provider in your Web page.
Note You have to know the HTML code or the URL of the video to embed it in a Web page.
Create a slide show album in your Web page. You can add up to 50 images to each slide show. You can specify the length of time that each image appears in the slide show, or you can let visitors move through the pictures at their own pace.
Tip Use the Slide Show gadget for a visual showcase of your products.
Add a Date modified gadget to show the date and time the Web page was last updated.
Tip If your Web site needs frequent updates to content such as limited-time promotions or discounts for your products or services, the Date modified gadget may be useful for site visitors to see how frequently you update the page.
Add a Site information gadget to display the site title, site slogan, or footer text inside the Web page.
Note When you update a site title, site slogan, or the footer text in Web Site Design Tool, the referenced text in the Site information gadget is automatically updated.

It is a shame, but every school needs to be as bullet-proof as a 7-11 store.
It is NOT the guns. A few days ago a man stabbed 20 children to death in a school in China. To call it a mental health crisis is to absolve the perpetrator of all blame and responsibility.
There is an evil that seems to be increasing. It is not democrat or republican, black, brown or white. It is a spirit of evil that has been on a slow burn for a long time. But that burn is increasing.
I am politically to the right. But if I thought this would never happen again I would say let's burn the Constitution, take all the guns away, and set up concentration camps. But it will not help.
While I have been Republican to the core, if I thought this would never happen again I would say let's expand TSA, require everyone to carry photo ID, and incarcerate or hospitalize all mental patients. But that won't work.
This evil is expanding, and each person who has a faith, regardless of whom we worship, needs to address that deity and ask for help against whatever is hurting our nation.
It is NOT some differing opinion to ours that is causing this carnage. It is beyond that. And it is time to address it, and stop it.
I don't know where you live but no 7/11 store I've been to here in Ventura/Oxnard is "bullet proof."
It's just a regular store, open to the public with open counters.

Year: 2012
Country: USA
Run Time: 88 minutes
An eye-opening documentary about the controversial clash of homosexuality and religion, LOVE FREE OR DIE tells the story of Gene Robinson, Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire and the first openly gay partnered person to be consecrated in the three largest high church traditions of Christendom—Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Anglican. Refusing to live a lie, Gene endures constant prejudice, criticism, and even death threats as he fights for equality within a religion that preaches love, acceptance, and honesty. A truly selfless, warm Christian, Gene denounces discrimination of any form and believes that the Church needs to take responsibility for what its scripture empowers people to do—love. Following Gene from his 2008 civil union to the 2009 Episcopal General Convention, in which they voted on the justification of both the consecration of gay bishops and the blessing of same-sex marriages in states where it is legal, LOVE FREE OR DIE reverently covers progressively significant civil rights issues our country faces today. – M.M.

July 7, 2011 How to Increase Your Chance of Success in a Viral Marketing Campaign [DMA11]
At DMA2011 Conference & Exhibition this October, you will have the opportunity to meet with hundreds of experts and talk face to face with marketers from all over the world. You'll be able to participate in marketing workshops that run the gamut from search engine marketing to social media damage control.

Social and viral marketing can be accomplished through a variety of different means and mediums. But regardless of whether your chosen method is video, audio, image or text, there are some rules that you should follow. These rules won't guarantee a social viral marketing success. The fact is, nothing can. But they will give your effort the greatest chance of succeeding.

One of the most common methods of allergy testing is the scratch, skin, or prick test. The test involves placing a small amount of the suspected allergy-causing substance (allergen) on the skin (usually the forearm, upper arm, or the back), and then scratching or pricking the skin so that the allergen is introduced under the skin surface. The skin is observed closely for signs of a reaction, which usually includes swelling and redness of the site. With this test, several suspected allergens can be tested at the same time. Results are usually obtained within about 20 minutes.

Show #3814
Alec Baldwin, and Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell.
PLUS: First Time Applauding; the Academy Awards too long; our Tony Mendez; a Top Ten List; and Cardinal Dolan does some stumping.
" . . . and now, the brick and mortar of the industry . . . . . . David Letterman!"
-"The Academy Awards were last night. It ran so long, the audience was begging Daniel Day-Lewis to free them."
Time now for something different. From the Academy Awards, it's "First Time Applauding?" We cut to a scene from the Academy Awards. There in the front row, just a few seats over from Jack Nicholson, is a woman clapping with her purse.
Maybe her purse fell asleep?
I apologize for that.
Did you think the Academy Awards went on too long? Well, apparently the audio guy thought so. We see one of the producers of "Argo" . . . the good-looking one . . . . about to start his "thank you" speech. The audio guy from the Oscars enters, takes the microphone stand, and breaks it over his knee. He then storms off. The audience is stunned silent.
Don't worry. That audio guy will be fine. He's union. Probably forced to skip his meal.
Congratulations to "Argo" for winning Best Picture. It was the story about a CIA agent named Tony Mendez. That Tony Mendez helped a handful of Americans escape Iran who were holed up at the Canada Embassy. Coincidentally, our cue card guy is named . . . Tony Mendez. We cut to our Tony Mendez who makes the daring move of helping a handful of Late Show audience members escape the Late Show. Tony leads the members to safety out the back of the house. The CIA Tony Mendez used guile, courage, and brilliant tactics to help them escape. Our Tony Mendez used over-acting.
The Academy Awards is a celebration of the films greatest films and performances. Dave recaps the winners and gives a quick critique of each. The Award is something that separates the winners from all others. But what separates the Late Show from all other late night talk shows? We take a look.
It's the Late Show Vibrating Desk! It's compelling . . . . and therapeutic! You can usually watch the vibrating desk infomercial at 4 AM on most any cable channel.
TOP TEN: POPE BENEDICT ACHIEVEMENTS – his last day on the job is Thursday. What has he achieved in the past decade? We take a look at this audio-visual Daily Double.
It's ten clips we've prepared for the Late Show. Enjoy it on the Late Show website, still in existence after all these years!
Dave thanks Alec for participating in Dave's big day when he received the Kennedy Center Honors. Dave says it made him look good in front of his family, something he never was able to do on his own.
Trouble for Alec lately? Dave read something in one of the local newspapers. Alec says he is on a mission and a campaign to get the Pulitzer Prize for the New York paper, the New York Post. The Post recently came out labeling Alec Baldwin a "racist" for his encounter with a pest with a camera. Forget the past 25 years of Alec's good deeds and the work he's done. Nope. Forget all that. According to the New York Post, Alec is a racist. Dave wonders if the Post lies in wait for Alec to bait him into a confrontation. That's awful, but it sells newspapers. Congratulate yourselves, people! Dave feels the situation was fabricated . . . created . . . entrapping. One guy has a camera and shoves it in Alec's face. Another guy off to the side videos the encounter. Ta da! Ka-ching! The racist comment? In all the video shown, none was heard, none was found. If he did say something untoward, it would have been seen and heard by all by now.
Alec and his wife are expecting a newborn. Being around a pregnant woman is quite something. Alec calls it . . . "thrilling." You want to be a good husband but it's not always easy. There is no "normal." You just try to keep up, to be helpful, to keep sane. It's a thrill-a-minute ride.
Alec promotes a book put out by his friend called, "Eye Rhymes." It's a reader for new readers that looks much more interesting than "Tip and Mitten." And Alec is now working on a Broadway play entitled, "Orphan," with performances beginning March 26th. Tickets are now on sale Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre on West 45th
ANNOUNCE: "Be sure to join us tomorrow as Dave welcomes Joan Rivers, Daytona 500 winner Jimmie Johnson, and Kendrick Lamar! And now, Let's Wake Up Dozing Home Viewers!"
Live shot of Alan: Alan crashes cymbals together.
Announce: "We'll be right back."
Pope Benedict is stepping down at the end of the month. Archbishop of New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan has asserted himself as a potential replacement. We heard that he may be here tonight. Is he here? Dave looks for affirmation. Is Cardinal Dolan, a possible future Pope, is Cardinal Dolan here? We cut to the guest entrance. Cardinal Dolan enters with an armful of "Dolan For Pope" t-shirts. He glides through the audience tossing t-shirts to the adoring throngs. He picked up a few votes, I'm sure.
From their new collaborative album, "Old Yellow Moon," Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell performed "Dreaming My Dreams."
And that was our show for Monday, February 25, 2013.
I missed tonight's show. I was in New Jersey attending the funeral of my dear Aunt Josephine, age 96.
It's very strange not to be here during the taping of the show. I got home late Monday and sat down to watch the show on the TV at 11:30 PM. But I fell asleep during the news. I came to work Tuesday morning and watched it on the internets. You know what? When you watch on the TV or the computer without being there during rehearsal, the show is very funny, too. I enjoyed it. It felt very odd, a bit weird, but it was fun. It felt new . . . . different.
How would the show have been different if I had been there . . . . oooh, it's like "A Wonderful Life." If I was there for the show on Monday, I would have made this suggestion for the Vibrating Desk. I would have suggested that Dave's mug be filled to the near-tippy-top so we could have seen the water splash out onto the desk. Or, better yet, have it filled with coffee so we could see the splash better.
My Aunt Jo was born on March 19th, St. Joseph's day. That is why she was named Josephine. She once lamented to me that she wished she were born two days earlier on St. Patrick's Day so she could have gone through life as Patricia. She wasn't much the fan of the name Josephine.
And speaking of St. Joseph . . . my Uncle Frank, Jo's husband, died some 15 years ago. He was a great believer in St. Joseph and would corner us kids . . . most of us in our 30s and 40s at the time, for just a minute every visit to preach of his great powers. We kids would listen politely and take in his words. One of the last times we talked he told me of the appearance of St. Joseph on his upper arm. He said the image of St. Joseph was on his arm, formed by freckles and moles and various old-man markings. Uncle Frank said you could only see it while looking at it in the mirror. We walked to the nearest mirror and he lifted his shirt sleeve. I politely told him I didn't see it. He said, "No, you have to look at it in the mirror." I was preparing how to tell him I still didn't see St. Joseph when I looked in the mirror at his arm. Holy mackerel! There on his arm was . . . . . I don't know what St. Joseph looked like, but there was the face of someone on my Uncle Frank's arm! It was remarkable. He told me he just noticed it recently. Said he never saw it before.
I keep looking for a saint on my arm but all I can find is the remains of a smallpox vaccination shot.
Seth McFarlane . . . I liked his performance as host of the Academy Awards. He didn't have the reverent awe the event is supposed to have on mere mortals. I liked that, but I imagine many didn't. What surprised many was his ability to sing and dance. For that alone he will be back. "Oooh, we can mold him into a Billy Crystal!" The Academy believes singing a joke is so much funnier than simply telling it. If Seth had only sang, "The actor who really got inside Lincoln's head was John Wilkes Boothe" the audience would have loved it. And if he sang it with a little soft-shoe thrown in . . . . genius!
Oh, I lost the Late Show Oscar Pool. I was in it up to the Supporting Actor category.

Amid the troubling statistics of the 2000 National Jewish Population Survey, there is one genuinely positive trend. The percentage of children in Jewish day schools is the highest it's ever been. Twenty-nine percent of Jewish children today have attended a day school at some point.
Many Jewish parents have recognized that a day school education can give their kids the strong identity and sense of rootedness that they need to navigate an increasingly complex world.

Wall*E Still Expected to Appear at Disney Parks… Eventually
On covering the Walt Disney Living Character Initiative (LCI)'s Remy, Orlando Sentinel Theme Park Ranger
Feelgood Friday: Guest Presents Cast Member with His Own Magical Moment
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla., April 9, 2009 — Magical Moments are one of the many things Cast Members do to leave lasting impressions on Walt Disney World Guests long after they return home. Often times, Guests surprise Cast Members and leave lasting impressions on us as well.
During a conversation with a female Guest at the Magic of Disney shop at Orlando International Airport, Merchandise Host Joseph Haworth discovered that she graduated from the University of Maryland at College Park. He attended the same school but wasn't able to participate in his graduation ceremony, a major milestone in a college student's life.
"I had accepted the invitation to attend the ceremony with everyone else, but I was reassigned to Sunneyvale, Calif., with the Air Force, and I didn't have the money to travel back, so I missed it."
Joseph didn't think anymore about the conversation with the Guest until she returned to the shop. His story had touched her so that she came back to create a special Magical Moment just for him: She brought him a graduation gown and a medallion from the university, and conducted a graduation ceremony for him in the shop as Guests and Cast Members looked on and applauded.
"I thought it was some kind of joke when she came out with the gown," he said. "And then she put the medallion around my neck and she said, 'You didn't get to walk. This is your walk.'
"All of a sudden I saw my manager taking pictures and everyone looking on, and that's when it hit me. I was overjoyed and tears came to my eyes."

The Terminator is indeed coming back, and it'll be sooner than you'd think.
Studio Paramount has confirmed that the first installment of their rebooted "Terminator" trilogy will land on June 26, 2015.
The movie will be executive produced by Dana Goldberg and Paul Schwake, with Laeta Kalogridis ("Shutter Island") and Patrick Lussier ("Drive Angry") on board to pen the script.
The original "Terminator" arrived in 1984 with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the starring role, and the franchise grew to include three more movies: 1991's "Terminator 2"; 2003's "Terminator 3"; and 2009's "Terminator Salvation."
The statement from Paramount didn't mention whether actor-turned-politician Schwarzenegger would have a role in the rebooted "Terminator."

Caravel's Savage - WDEL Male HS Athlete of the Week
By Sean Greene
VIDEO: Interview with Darnell Savage
Caravel Academy running back Darnell Savage is this week's WDEL Male High School Athlete of the Week.
The sophomore scored six touchdowns in the Bucs' 53-21 victory over St. Elizabeth last Friday.
Darnell says he loved the feeling of finding the end zone each time.
"It's a great feeling when you score in any game, and especially in a state tournament game. It's a great feeling when you score six touchdowns because that doesn't normally happen."
Darnell's great skill and elusiveness helped key the huge performance, but he also emphasized that it was not all him.
"Our blockers and front line are great. We execute fakes well, the other (running) backs block well, it's a team effort."
Caravel is no stranger to the state tournament after falling in the championship game last year, I asked Darnell what's the difference between the regular season and postseason.
"The intensity is great, you're so excited you just can't wait to play because you want to do well."
Caravel fell in the state championship game last year, what will it take to have the Bucs holding the trophy on November 30th?
"Hard work, dedication, and we've got to come out there ready to play."

The Texas Department of Public Safety says they are recommending that criminally negligent homicide charges be filed against the driver of an 18-wheeler that hit the back of an SUV on Thanksgiving Day, killing the occupants.
Vincent Leggio, Sr., and Debra Leggio were both killed in the accident.
Loxahatchee, FL resident Richard Fernando Kerr was the driver of the 18-wheeler owned by C.R. England, INC. The tractor trailer plowed into the back of the SUV that authorities say was stopped on the road because of other accidents on the highway that were caused by heavy fog.
DPS says 29 people total were injured in 18 separate crashes.
The family of the victims Thursday filed a civil suit against both the driver and the company owning the 18-wheeler.

PESTICIDE TESTING: The EPA's pledge to investigate endocrine-disrupting pesticides may not be worth much unless its methods are changed, says an advocate.

The Best Science Writing Online 2012

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is ready to start testing 67 pesticide ingredients for their possible endocrine disruption effects. But the testing program the agency plans to use is only a pitiful skeleton of what it needs to be. This battery of tests, first recommended in 1998, is outdated, insensitive, crude, and narrowly limited.
Each test and assay was designed under the surveillance of corporate lawyers who had bottom lines to protect and assorted toxicologists who were not trained in endocrinology and developmental biology. For over a decade, EPA has ignored the vast wealth of information on endocrine disruption from independent academic researchers funded by the United States and other governments in Europe and Asia. This 21st century research is based on different assumptions than the toxicological assumptions that drove the EPA test designs. And most important, because of the limited scope of its test battery, EPA is not in a position to address the pandemics of endocrine-related disorders that pose a threat to every child born today.
The big question, of course, is how could this have happened? Well, from the very beginning, institutional barriers, bureaucratic inertia, and corporate interference led to one disconnection after another.
Starting in 1996, when Congress passed the new Food Quality Protection Action with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act Amendments, it told EPA to develop a screening program using tests and other scientifically relevant information to determine whether substances have hormonal activity. In response, EPA set up the Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program, including a committee with members representing the industries to be regulated, toxicologists, and a few token representatives from non-profit organizations. The scientists who discovered endocrine disruption and the hundreds of others, most of whom were not toxicologists and had shifted their research focus to the connections between a mother and her embryo and fetus, were not invited to participate. Instead of listening to those who knew something about endocrine disruption, EPA tried to use traditional toxicology protocols, forgetting that these had failed miserably and allowed endocrine disruptors to get through the government's programs to protect public health. EPA ignored the growing knowledge about endocrine disruption and trade associations representing corporations with deep pockets denied it. Consequently, EPA struggled along under the false assumptions that 'the dose makes the poison' and that high dose testing is sufficient to detect any chemical that can interfere with endocrine control of development and function.
Since the early 1990s, independent scientists in academic laboratories around the world have published hundreds of articles demonstrating how a broad selection of chemicals can interfere with the normal development of a baby at extremely low levels of exposure – in fact, levels similar to those experienced every day by people worldwide. These studies were done with the knowledge that the embryo and fetus develop under the control of hormones at parts per billion and parts trillion, and that as the baby matures hormone concentrations are regulated by sensitive, thermostat-like, feedback control systems in the brain. These pioneering scientists discovered effects for some widely used chemicals at concentrations thousands of times less than government "safe" levels of exposure derived through traditional toxicological tests. But their publications announcing damage in other components of the endocrine system, such as the pancreas, adrenal glands, bone, and mammary tissue, got no farther than headlines in newspapers. They had no effect on policy. While this wealth of knowledge was piling up, EPA, held back by institutional inertia, continued to attempt to validate a handful of single-focus assays to detect only a very small component of endocrine disruption. There was no connection between the assumptions of the toxicologists and those of the endocrinologists, developmental biologists, and the multi-disciplinarians doing the research needed to detect endocrine disruptors. This same disconnection was being played out in Europe where governments also continued to use outdated toxicological dogma.

By Mayo Clinic staffIf you cough, wheeze or feel out of breath during or after exercise, it may be more than exertion causing your symptoms. You might have exercise-induced asthma. As with asthma triggered by other things, exercise-induced asthma symptoms occur when your airways tighten and produce extra mucus.
If you have exercise-induced asthma — also called exercise-induced bronchospasm (BRONG-ko-spaz-um) — physical exertion may be the only thing that triggers your symptoms. Or, exercise may be just one of several things that trigger your asthma. But having exercise-induced asthma doesn't mean you shouldn't exercise. Proper treatment of exercise-induced asthma and precautions can keep you active — whether you're strolling through the park or running a race.
