"The President pretends to be caught in Spider-Man's web as he greets the Nicholas Tamarin, 3, just outside the Oval Office. Spider-Man had been trick-or-treating for an early Halloween with his father, White House aide Nate Tamarin in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. I can never commit to calling any picture my favorite, but the President told me that this was HIS favorite picture of the year when he saw it hanging in the West Wing a couple of weeks later."

December 9 – Happy Birthday Joe Kelley
I doubt there's a Yankee fan who ever heard of Joe Kelley. Yet, he was one of the original Yankee franchise's first stars and he was inducted into Baseball's Hall of Fame in 1971. Kelley's anonymity within Pinstripe Nation is due to two factors. The first is that he played most of his baseball back in the 19th century. The second reason is that he played just 60 games for the Yankee franchise and those games were played in 1902, when the team was still based in Baltimore and nicknamed the Orioles.
There is no doubt, however, that Kelley was one of baseball's brightest stars back when Grover Cleveland and William McKinley lived in the White House. He was a lifetime .317 hitter, who was consistently among league leaders in most offensive categories and also recognized as one of baseball's best defensive outfielders. He had a 17 year-career, but his best seasons were spent in Baltimore, when the Oriloles were still part of the senior circuit. He teamed with John McGraw, Wee Willie Keeler and Hughie Jennings to lead Baltimore to three straight pennants and averaged .352 during his six year tenure with that team. He once had nine consecutive base hits in an Orioles' double-header. Kelley was also quite the lady's man back in the day. He was often seen in public with beautiful members of the opposite sex, enjoying the night-life of Baltimore and other NL home cities, sort of like a 19th century version of A-Rod.
He was traded to Brooklyn in 1899 and helped that team win two straight pennants, but his heart and his family were still in Baltimore. By 1902, the Orioles were part of Ban Johnson's upstart American League. That year, Kelley jumped the NL to return to the O's. When his former teammate and current Oriole manager, John McGraw got into a personal squabble with Ban Johnson. McGraw reversed Kelley's geographical path and jumped from Baltimore back to the Big Apple to manage the Giants. Though it was Wilbert Robinson who took over for McGraw as the official manager, Kelley actually became that Oriole team's co-skipper. He ended up appearing in 60 games that year and hit .311. When it was learned that Johnson had finagled the transfer of the financially troubled Orioles' franchise to New York, Kelley jumped back to the NL and became a player-manager for the Reds.
Kelley shares his birthday with this former Yankee starting pitcher.

Shall we find out, boys and girls?
I was going to do this as a video, but since you can't actually see anything happening inside the centrifuge, I decided that would be boring.
1-40 of 66 | Next » |
Your wackifuge has (potentially) much greater energy stored in the the rotor - I think it could put a sample clean through a garbage can...
Think what a weed-wacker does to weeds - that's not because the wacker is sharp, just fast.
Scale that up with a bicycle wheel - adding circumerancial speed and momentum, then the wackifuge has the genuine potential to remove limbs in an extremely messy way.
But it did not occur to you that a series of pictures, unexplained pictures, would be boring also? Maybe it's just me but I'm the kind of guy who likes to read text about what you did, what equipment you used, where you found the equipment, what materials you tested, where you found them (if they were not found around the house), why you tested those objects and materials, and what the results were.
Okay, while I was writing this I noticed that each picture has a a very subtle caption written in nearly invisible ink and 4-point font. I still can't give you any points. I like paragraphs.
Obviously by reading the other comments this project has some appeal. I think if you were to write this up properly and dispense with the gimmicky slide show, you would have a much better Instructable.
Slideshows are not instructables, they are pictures of things that have been done (although, it's been so long since you wrote an 'ible, maybe you missed the introduction of the new formats?). They don't need lots of explanations, especially when they're written for those members with that certain sense of fun that seems to have escaped you today. This isn't a "how to", it's just the results of a few casual experiments, stemming from a forum thread. Maybe it's time you started taking part in the whole community, then you wouldn't waste your time typing scads of unnecessary criticism?
Sorry you don't like the caption text - complain to the management about that one, there are no options available - but I'm crediting the readership with either the education to know what centrifuge and 8,500g mean, or at least the intelligence to be able to ask.
Since DNA extraction isn't on my school's curriculum (the kids are too young), I decided to subject other things to extreme g-forces...
Could you test out a hypothesis or mine? I propose that orienting a (really, really tiny) muffin in a centrifuge would produce a black hole of awesomeness. Basically, if you make it so that the muffin tops (the best parts) inwards, then the centrifugal (or is it centripetal, in this case?) will throw the muffin tops to the bottom of the sample tube at tremendous speeds. The movement of a piece of matter with a Qa > infinity, or a charge of awesomeness greater than infinity, a such an accelerated pace causes a deficit of awesomeness in the area from which it moved, causing a rip in the awesome-time continuum. Test this around something boring and something awesome. If my theory is correct, putting H2G2 on the central axis of the centrifuge and Conrad's Heart of Darkness on the outside of the centrifuge should caused H2G2 to turn into something like HoD, and HoD to, most likely, trun into H2G2.

Marilyn Hoffman is the winner of the 2013 Fair Theme Contest. Her theme, "Fun, Family, Friends," was chosen to represent the 2013 Plumas-Sierra County Fair. Photo submitted |
The results are in! The Plumas-Sierra County Fair board chose a winner in the 2013 Fair Theme Contest.
Quincy resident Marilyn Hoffman's theme, "Plumas Sierra County Fair — Fun, Family, Friends," aptly describes the annual event, to be held Aug. 14 – 18.
Hoffman's prize includes a T-shirt that proclaims "I Came Up With This Year's Fair Theme" and a week–long family pass with one unlimited carnival ride bracelet.
"Many fairs have abandoned this method of picking a theme," said Fair Manager John Steffanic. "They just don't get the level of participation that makes it worth it. The fair board was pleased at the number of entries they received and will probably do it again next year."

Most Important And Practical Guitar Scales To Learn
become laser focused. What are the most important and practical
guitar scales to learn? What guitar scales you need to learn, in
order to play the style of music that you love.
A major reason why many guitarists never master guitar scales is
that they try to learn too many at once. If you want to develop
top-class guitar scales and improvisation skills, then you will
need to learn and master certain scales. In fact, you will have
to know your scales so well that you "own them". Until you "own"
your scales you can't use them effectively.
Learning scales and deciding on what are the most important and
practical guitar scales to learn seems a mind-boggling task. No
doubt, you have heard people say: the more scales you know, the
wider variety of songs you will be able to play and enjoy.
Scales mastery is the combination of several "micro-skills":
(a) learn the names of the notes in the scale,
(b) know their scale step numbers,
(c) study the unique harmony created from that scale,
(d) know the names of the notes over the entire fretboard
(e) learn the scale in all twelve keys.
Mastery of scales, modes, and improvisation is not difficult,
once you break these complex subjects down to small pieces.
First decide what music you want to play: rock, jazz, country,
bluegrass, metal, each style of music has certain preferred
scales associated with that music.
Most important and practical guitar scales to learn for rock
music: minor pentatonic, blues scale.
Most important and practical guitar scales to learn for country
music: major pentatonic scale, blues scale.
Most important and practical guitar scales to learn for bluegrass
music: major pentatonic scale, major diatonic scale,
Most important and practical guitar scales to learn for jazz
music: major diatonic scale and it's modes, harmonic minor scale
and it's modes, minor pentatonic scale, blues scale, major
pentatonic, whole tone scale, chromatic scale.
Scales create patterns on the fretboard which players visualize
and memorize. The important thing to remember is to learn the
notes on your guitar fretboard, so you are not just playing a
pattern, that's the key to good guitar playing, knowing the names
of the notes over the entire fingerboard!
Good knowledge of the fretboard will enable you to: improvise
better, learn songs quicker, learn more chords and scales, read
music and most importantly it will help you to create your
own music not merely copy someone else.
I definitely recommend memorizing or becoming familiar with the
fretboard. If you memorize the notes on the fretboard, you will
be able to connect scales and locate the root of keys that you
are playing in while soloing, easily. Especially if you want to
know that scale over the entire fretboard AND be able to
improvise fluently with it.
Many guitarists main focus is entirely on the physical aspect of
playing scales the musician/guitarist understands the
intellectual aspect of learning scales.
The ability to use artfully the unique "colors" of each different
note in a scale. The ability to play instantly and effortlessly
any scale in any key, anywhere on the fretboard. The ability to
know instantly and effortlessly what scale and mode to use on any
Practicing guitar music scales is one of the key elements to
learning the basics of guitar.
Once you decide on the most important and practical guitar scales
to learn for your music you will be on your way to successful
guitar music playing in no time.

Reviews by Kloug:More User Reviews:GreywulfkenNew York 4.25/5 rDev +2.9% look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25 A: medium gold body, slightly hazy, fully effervescent; watch the pour because you're gonna kick up a quick white head half-the glass high in no time at all. Tons of finely bubbled lace was left behind. S: the Belgian yeasts contribute lots of floral and fruity aromas, supported by a fresh pale malt bill to soften and sweeten the scents T: pale fruity flavors complement the nose, as do the crisp, tart and citrusy flavors that abound; slight spice character not uncommon to the style - somehow a tripel seems suited to the fall and winter holidays and season, in part due to the herbal and spiced aspects M: tart and fuzzy, balancing between smooth and crisp, medium-to-light body O: the Belgian tripel (un-tweaked versions, that is) should present a handful of characteristics, and this beer hits them all - a soft, clean and fresh flavor, featuring pale and citrusy fruits, like lemons, bananas, and various orchard fruits; tart and tight, fizzy and lush - without being heavy. But of course, no two beers are twin. This is a very spot-on tripel, and will please any fans of the style. It doesn't do anything special to set itself apart from others in the style, so how much anyone likes it will depend mostly on their particular flavor preferences. Certainly a great tripel to go-to. As traditional Belgian tripels go, this one is in the same neighborhood as Chimay and La Fin Du Monde, for my tastes, just a *touch* behind Westmalle and Karmeliet. Serving type: bottle 11-17-2013 16:18:04 | More by Greywulfken BethanyBNew Jersey 4.05/5 rDev -1.9% look: 2.75 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 Appearance: An opaque apricot with a filmy white head. While the color is fine for the style (if a bit dark), the clarity and the lack of head are disappointing. Smell: A surprisingly floral and herbal perfume, not what I'd expect from any beer, really, not even an IPA. Aromas of rosemary and sage are fresh and crisp, and are accompanied by a drop of honey and a dash of coriander. Taste: The herbal quality appears in the taste as well (at one point, I got a real hash taste), but is balanced by high amounts of sweet fruity esters, with apricots and pears in the starring roles. A complex mixture of spices (coriander, cloves, white pepper, etc.) is surprisingly well-balanced, and lingers well into the finish. Mouthfeel: Medium body, yet crisp and dry due to high carbonation. A bit of alcohol warming tingles on the back of the tongue. Overall: Extremely unique, and absolutely worth the try! I generally like a little more malt in my Belgian beers, so this wouldn't become a go-to-brew for me. Still, this is excellent overall, and sure stands out from the rest! Serving type: bottle 11-01-2013 17:19:38 | More by BethanyB gr0gNew Jersey 4.19/5 rDev +1.5% look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4 750ml bottle of unknown age. The pour into a Chimay chalice yields a lightly hazy golden-amber appearance with a two-finger head. Very good head retention with the residual "skin" of foam that good Belgian ales show. Fruit-forward aroma has notes of ripened white grapes, apple, and pear. Candi sugar is also detectable and not unexpected, as I've found that Het Anker likes to use it liberally in the Gouden Carolus line. There's more of that fruitiness and candi sugar to be found in the flavor, but it's not at all too sweet. Residual sugars are noticeable but far from cloying. Sweetness goes hand-in-hand with the ripened fruitness to create a compelling flavor profile. Depth of flavor gets better as it warms, as does the mouthfeel. Once the carbonation settles down, the sting falls off and the resulting texture is smoother. Gouden Carolus Tripel is one of those beers that becomes more impressive with each successive sip. Stands among the elites in its style. Serving type: bottle 09-19-2013 00:34:07 | More by gr0g spoonyColorado 4.29/5 rDev +3.9% look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5 From a 330 ml bottle and a 750 ml bottle (dated February 14, 2013) into a globe glass and tulip glass, respectively. Tasted twice. A-The brew is lighter in color than most other tripels with a light-golden-straw color. The small bottle produces about one and one-half finger of dense, white foam and the big bottle produces nearly three fingers of dense foam. Retention is good on the small bottle and really good on the big bottle. Nice chunks of lacing, too. S-The smell is a bit soapy and floral with a light sweetness. There is a good dose of white pepper and lemon. The alcohol is assertive, but fitting for the style and other flavors. Pleasing, but a bit rustic. T-The taste is sharper and more focused. I think it is more grassy and peppery than the smell, but there is still a bit of lemon and sweetness with reminds me of lemon curd or meringue. The yeast here is milder than on many Belgian variants of this style. A bit simple, but drinkable and pleasing. M-The carbonation is more robust and full of crackle than many Belgian brews, but it really works here. Heft is medium. This brew is not a softy. O-This is a nice tripel. I like the style to be lighter in color, which this beer certainly is, and although I often go for the sweet bubblegum Belgian sugar bombs, this brew managed to please without going that route. That is not to say that it was dry or hugely hopped. Instead, it is just a nicely balanced, slightly aggressive tripel. Serving type: bottle 09-17-2013 02:03:55 | More by spoony |

Read More »Poker Squares by KnightOwlen is a card game with an interesting mechanic: players must build the best poker hands on a 5 by 5 grid, using 25 randomly drawn cards. Hands can be achieved either vertically or horizontally. Once the grid is full, each grid line is assessed and the value of each line is determined by the type of poker hand that has been made.
This concept has been popular for a long time, though Poker Squares seems to be one of the few GameMaker versions of it. But is Poker Squares worth playing?
Read More »Recent updates to GameMaker Studio added a new audio system to the engine, one that is more code-orientated than previously. To add special effects or utilize 3D sound, developers now have to add a few lines of code to get things working.
Don't be put off: setting up 3D sound in GameMaker is actually extremely easy.
If you go searching for help on the GameMaker Community forum, it isn't very easy to find simply-worded documentation on how to achieve this. Fortunately, all you need to know is here.
Read More »Within the GameMaker community, GameMaker for Mac is known as one of the least stable and least useful versions of the software. It is based on the GameMaker 7 framework, which was released in 2007. Mac users who want to run GameMaker 8.1 or GameMaker Studio have had to find alternatives.
By using software such as Bootcamp or the more flexible Parallels Desktop, Mac users have been able to run Windows applications on their machines, including the modern versions of GameMaker. Parallels Desktop is by far the best option for running GameMaker on a Mac, as it creates a seamless interface between Mac OS X and Windows.
But why stop at Windows and Mac? Here's how to run GameMaker on an iPad.

How bad am I, I'm not even pg and I'm already trying to find out how earlier I'd be able to find out the gender and more importantly how accurately. I just stumbled upon this site and they claim to use your DNA to determine the gender, as early as 6 weeks. Only thing is it's expensive @$399. They're based in Australia but the test is available world wide. Here is their website for anyone interested - http://www.nimblediagnostics.com.au
P.S. I'd love to know if any of these DNA tests do work??

Many companies claim to offer a DNA test that "really" works. To date, there have been reports of wrong results for every single test, even among small samples of women with tests that are supposed to be very highly accurate.
There is no regulation of these type of tests at all. The makers are free to make any claims they like and no government agency or consumer group checks it.
Unfortunately, if you spend a lot of money on a test like this, you'll still be left wondering whether your baby is a boy or a girl.

Me and a freind both tried it around the same time a few months ago after being recommended it by a colleague. It was correct for us, and it was a fairly simple and easy test, so I was happy. My girlfriend works in a hospital lab and did some research before we went ahead and bought it (it's $399 after all!) and she was happy that the prinicple behind the test was OK. They quote a 90%+ accuracy I think.
May as well go ahead if you really can't wait! ;)

Seriously, don't waste your money. It is all the same "science" behind these "DNA" tests and it is not perfected yet. For $400 I would expect the results to be accurate and you just wont rest easy after they tell you. I did the same kind of test at 12 weeks and they were wrong with me. I got 200% of my money back (that's how sure they were that their tests were right) but you have no guarrantee with the newer companies.
We were all warned about the tests and still took them "for fun" but that kind of money shouldn't be wasted.

I tried the test a few months ago and it correctly told me that I'd have a boy! Made it a bit easier buying stuff early on (and hubby was happy find out early - he's very impatient haha!).
"To date, there have been reports of wrong results for every single test, "
Surely if it was just guessing the gender it would still get it correct 50% of the time!!! If it was wrong every time they would just tell the customer the opposite of what the test said and they would have 100% accuracy!! :) :)
Anyway, good luck with bub!

Please do not waste your money on that. I was told I was having a boy and my baby is all girl. There has been so many reports of these scam artists taking your hard earned money. Most of them do not honor their so- called refund policy. I am a nurse and the doctor I work with said that its just not possible as of yet, to tell the gender of an unborn baby from a drop of mothers blood. CVS or EARLY U/S can tell you what you are having :)

Take some time to go through posts about this very topic. Many, MANY women have been very hurt, disappointed, and told potentially fatal information for the sake of a "fun, early" DNA test supposed to be over 90% in accuracy. While they do get quite a few right, there are too many that are wrong.
Matter of fact - I shelled out the dough, took one, it was correct, and I still think people should avoid them like the plague!!!!

Hello mum of 3 girls....
I have just used nimble diagnostics in sydney and would never use tham again!
They actually send your test to tell me pink or blue in the U,S to be analized ..although they make it sound as if your test will be done in sydney.....
I expressed my test back to them and it took me 3 weeks to get my results! Results i now dont believe are correct!
There is no contact phone number whatsoever for them only email communications...and there comunnications by email are very misleading!
goodluck with your next bub!

Please check out my recent response from TMPOB. I am from Oz and was going to use ND till found out they send the test to US anyway then used TMPOB and they told me boy-I have just found out that I am having a girl. I had such heartache for weeks. Do NOT do these tests-mine was recent and incorrect.

I used a similar one in the US ( Urobiolgics) and it cost me $275.
They told me I was having a Boy. and so did Intelligender. I was devastated after recieving the results because we swayed for a girl. But accepted that it was a boy.
Then at my 12 week scan i was told my nub shot looked girly.
I'm 32 weeks now and 6 ultrasounds have confirmed I'm having a baby girl.
Dont waste your money on these tests because after hearing so many stories about bad results you'll probaly only end up second guessing your result too.
also be VERY careful listening to people who claim these tests are accurate and have only posted 1-2 times on this forum - they usually work for the company

I used Nimble Diagonstics a few months ago after they were recommended to me by my sister-in-law and was really happy with them. They were quick (result in 3 days), were very helpful even though I emailed them about 20 times wanting to know all about the test! :) Most importantly, it gave me a correct result!I did some homework before I bought the test and it was obvious that the urine-based tests like Intelligender are rubbish and are not accurate at all, but with a blood test like this one they actually detect the babies DNA and can tell directly whether it's a boy or girl. It sounds like all of the incorrect results from a DNA test like this is just a result of the instructions not being read carefully enough - I believe if you don't handle the sterile blood card correctly you can get someone elses DNA on it which can throw the test off.

Our environmental reporter Susan Bence rolls up to a budding Milwaukee recycling business. Be it Berber, Persian or shag, the carpet recycler helps keep it out of the landfill.
The debate over where city of Milwaukee employees are allowed to live takes center stage at the state Capitol Tuesday. A Senate committee will hold a public hearing on a bill that would do away with the requirement that Milwaukee police officers and fire fighters reside within the city limits. Gov. Scott Walker's budget would also scrap the residency rule for Milwaukee's 6,000 public school teachers. More than a decade ago, state lawmakers in Michigan made a similar move, giving city of Detroit workers the freedom to live wherever they want. WUWM's Erin Toner spoke with a few people about how those changes have impacted the Motor City.
One of the people watching – and taking part in -- the Madison protests has been Margaret (Peggy) Rozga.She's an English professor at UW-Waukesha, but perhaps is best known as the widow of James Groppi. He was the former Catholic priest and activist who was a major leader in the civil rights movement in Milwaukee in the 1960s.
Democrats are accusing Governor Scott Walker of breaking ethics and campaign finance laws during a phone conversation he thought he was having with billionaire David Koch. The state Democratic Party Monday filed a formal complaint with the Government Accountability Board. WUWM's Erin Toner reports that the case has raised ethics questions, not only in the political realm, but also in the field of journalism.

Osho,I am a sociologist. That means I deal scientifically with the relationship between social and political structures, and the individual. Though I think there are sociological laws, and that sociology can help us to understand the problems of society better, I am more and more in difficulties with sociology, in that way of thinking, and with the sociologists as well.It has been a process like that since I have been a sannyasin. I have the feeling that I can't stand it any longer at the university. Can you say something about it?
The whole so-called philosophy of sociology is very superficial, for the simple reason that society does not exist. What exists is the individual.
Sociology begins from the wrong end. It starts studying social relationships amongst the societies, amongst individuals. But they never bother about studying the individual – who is the source of all the relationships, of all the societies, of all the cultures that have happened or ever will happen.
Society has no soul. What can you study in it? It is almost as if somebody is studying Rotary Clubs. A Rotary Club has no soul, it is just a club where people meet. But the reality belongs to the people.
And up to now sociology has not yet become a science. It pretends to be a science – it is not, for the simple reason that it has not started from the right point. The right point is the individual. There seems to be some fear about beginning with the individual, because there are millions of individuals in the world, and every individual is unique. It seems easier to take them as a whole and just study from the outside how the whole functions.
If it were a mechanical thing, the sociologist would have succeeded. But it is not a mechanical thing. It is not that the individuals are parts of the society. Society has no existence apart from the individuals. It is just in the individuals living together, relating together, that the society is created.
The fear of studying the individual should be dropped, because although there are millions of individuals and they are all unique, their basic consciousness is the same, and the principles of the functioning of that consciousness are the same. Either the consciousness is awake – then a person functions like a Gautam Buddha – or the consciousness is asleep; then the function of the person is similar all around the world. What you do in your sleep does not matter much; your sleep is the same.
It will certainly be difficult to study a buddha, because he has attained an awakened uniqueness, and each Buddha is bound to respond differently, because his action is not a reaction. His action is purely action. You cannot make him do something; it is his spontaneity which is decisive.
Secondly, he is not logically a consistent person. He does not owe anything to logic: logic has not given him anything. Whatever he has attained, he has attained by dropping logic, by dropping thinking. He functions out of his state of no-mind; hence he is unpredictable.
And every science wants a subject to be predictable; otherwise what is the point of the science? The whole purpose of the science is to predict, and to predict accurately, a hundred percent; there is not even a possibility of any exception. And each awakened human being is an exception – there is no rule.

Mexico Lindo Oshawa's culinary wizards conjure an authentic Mexican menu, replete with offerings inspired by the flavours of Mexico City. Shrimp get a spicy makeover in the camarones Diablo ($10.95), and a beef burrito teams up with a chicken enchilada to judo-chop hunger in an Acapulco combo, furnished with throwing stars made from rice, salad, and refried beans ($12.95). Burritos emerge from the deep fryer disguised as crispy chimichangas ($9.95), and chefs roll corn tortillas around the diner's choice of fillings and drizzle the resulting enchiladas with a delectable sauce ($9.95). Diners can sample the eatery's homebrewed Mexico Lindo ale, sip margaritas, or confuse blindfolded taste buds with scoops of deep-fried ice cream ($6).
O.T.H. Gourmet Fish & Chips puts an upscale spin on traditional fish 'n' chips. Chefs toss panko breading atop not just cod, but scallops and other seafood, hoping to create specialties that live up to their slogan "Our Fish Are Off the Hook!" The menu has a land-based portion, too: cooks grill burgers, cut onions to make fresh onions rings, and ladle gravy over fries for poutine. Those with dietary sensitivities can nosh on gluten-free dishes served without a wheat stalk as a garnish.
Since its fairways opened in 1992, Harmony Creek Golf Centre welcomes golfers of all stripes to challenge their skills on the 18-hole executive-length course and miniature putt putt course. Water, sand, or a combination of both await errant shots on every single hole of the executive course, demanding accuracy over distance with irons and wedges. The driving range, where 50 tee stations evenly split between artificial turf and natural grass, gives players ample space to calibrate approaches with their short irons and engage in couples therapy with their drivers.
Groupon is a combination of the words group and coupon. Each day, we offer an unbeatable deal on the best of Oshawa: restaurants, spas, sporting events, theatre, and more. By promising businesses a minimum number of customers, we get discounts you won't find anywhere else. We call it "collective buying power."
Comino's concocts hand-tossed pizzas that can be accessorized with pre-designed topping trios or customized combinations. The meat lover's pie carefully replicates Lascaux cave drawings of pepperoni, bacon, and ground beef, and the veggie lover's model sounds a sturdy retort in the form of green peppers, onions, and tomatoes. Though pizza as transportation is a poor second to the magic carpet, world travel is feasible through Comino's Hawaiian and Greek creations, and, for the return trip, a toothsome passport stamp of pepperoni, bacon, and mushrooms returns slice-sailors to Canada.
Buffet World beckons growling stomachs into its 260-seat dining room with an eclectic lineup of Chinese, Japanese, and Canadian offerings. With the buffet, diners peruse and discuss ideal first dates with more than 100 items before piling plates high with tasty choices such as roast beef and pizza. Kick off voyages around the buffet line with a trip to the salad bar, sample sushi selections, and then cap off feasts with desserts such as ice cream and fortune cookies. From the takeout menu, dry noodles blend with bean sprouts and pork in a chow mein (a $5.45+ value), spicy satay sauce drizzles over beef (an $8.50 value), and shrimp weaves into a bed of mixed vegetables (an $8.50 value). Finally, expert chefs fry up veggies, rice, eggs, and chicken to stuff hungry patrons and their plastic-lined pockets with chicken fried rice. With an eye toward healthy eating, Buffet World's culinary wizards whip up their dishes using vegetable oil and fresh herbs and spices.

Bipolar Disorder Symptoms
Sometimes the house is dirtier
Six days stuck to my bed resulted in a 4-hour wait for a med-check at Urgent Psychiatric Care (UPC) in downtown Phoenix. I resumed the same idiocy of pretending I was sick instead of admitting I was in a downturn. In my defense, at least it only took 6 days for me to seek help…so something must be working.
A pursuit of inner peace — without it my disorder would have me in its grasp
I've been toying with the idea of whether or not I have inner peace. It's elusive when I concentrate on practicing it, and I'm beginning to think that pursuit of it isn't the goal...HAVING it is. There are steps I can take to prepare my mind to accept and embrace it though.
Here's what I thought it was:
This past year my world was filled with quite a few life altering events. Last January I was put on short-term disability at my job because of my bipolar disorder. While trying to get better, I struggled a lot with the decision of leaving my husband, who was in St. Thomas working. In March, he came back home, I left him, moved into my parent's house and filed for divorce. As if that wasn't enough, when my short-term disability ran out in April, I was fired from my job.
Please welcome our new blogger, Alora!
My name is Alora and I was diagnosed with rapid cycling Bipolar I Disorder back in 2008. While learning to deal with the disorder has been a challenge, it has given her me a chance to grow in ways most people can't. I've found ways to use the mania to my advantage and as a result have gone back to school and have finally been able to get my dream of being a writer to become a reality.
Ups and Downs of 2012
Ups and Downs of 2012
2012 had been a rough year for me physically and mentally. I was in the hospital for psychiatric evaluation at least four times. I had a couple of endoscopes, a hospitalization for my back and even a couple of back procedures including a radio frequency ablation on my lower back.
To top it off I injured my rotator cuff on my left shoulder. It ended up being more inconvenient because I'm left handed.
Please welcome our new blogger, Deborrah!
Deborrah B. is a work-from-home writer/blogger and social media strategist from Mesa, AZ. Though she is new in the bipolar community, she's had Type II symptoms since high school which went undiagnosed until 2003. New to being medically-compliant, she tries to offer a humorous look at the disorder and the situations in which those diagnosed find themselves.
Please welcome our new blogger, Maureen!
My name is Maureen, and I am forty years old. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder about eight years ago. I have battled depression since my teens and was diagnosed with it in my late twenties, while struggling with a stressful career and difficult marriage. My episodes became longer and more debilitating, and short-lived bursts of energy and activity followed. After one particularly difficult episode, I was unable to work and barely able to function. At this point, I was given the diagnosis of bipolar disorder.
Mental Illness & Addiction
Mental Illness & Addiction
By: Kristian Feldstein
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few months after turning 18 years old in 2003. While that seems so long ago, one would think 10 years is enough time to figure out how to perfectly manage my illness and life. The truth of the matter is, I am still learning and the things I have learned up to this point in my life, I have learned the hard way.
My Letter to You
My Letter to You
By: Kristian Feldstein
Some of us are so far from what we imagined our lives would be like;
Some have exactly what they pictured;
Some are trying to do everything they can to escape the constant reminder that we failed to meet our childhood expectations and dreams of adulthood.
No matter where we are all human where some things are within our control and others are not.
Above all, no thing or person is ever completely as it seems.

first of all, scratch is a good system.
And as any system, it has limits.
In performance and in its business model.
As there are some different definitions (between post-veterans/studio owners and employees and customers of the manufacturer assimilate, the company behind scratch) of 4K requirements, market outlooks and postproduction workflows, this thread should easily give orientation for customers of red what scratch, being the only system which can operate at 4K allowed by red so far,
what the scratch software exactly -can- and -cant- do.
- 4K display. Some people (i am one of them) who mastered fullfeatures @4K say that it is crucial to monitor 4K at 4K, as noise, aliasing, and grain might be invisible at 2K monitoring. The scratch system so far has no 4K display. It is possible to view 25% of the images content, pixel by pixel, on the maximum display of the system which is 2K resolution.
- 4K realtime. This is a main source of confusion. Scratch cant decode 4K redcode raw in realtime in its full quality. By switching to lower qualities decode (as raw wavelet datareduction as used by the red camera easily allows), the station can read 4K @ 2K in RT. This is a great advantage if working in 2K - but the redcode raw source footage being processed at 4K requires a minimum 1:3 overhead in time.
- 4K FX. As any nvidia graphics card basing computer today, scratch, equipped with decent graphic cards (Quadro 5600 etc) is able to process 4K media in realtime. However, this does not apply to redcode raw, as the high-quality-debayer of this format overloads such as computer.
These are the basic limitations of the so far -only- allowed 4K redcode raw system. No 4K display (in general), no 4K RT (with redcode, no problem with decoded data), no RT 4K FX (once more, available with -dpx- sequences, but not with redcode raw).
I have been pointing out that these things seem to be a restriction and limitation to users who are used to a 4K RT workflow - in many posts.
In the recent week, a employee of Assimilate has been erasing these posts - backed up by the argument, that customers might be misunderstanding these facts. Many of the posters and readers of this discussion board were anrgy about this.
Therefore, i -condensed- these topics in this thread.
Beside these technical restrictions, people have been complaining about the business model of assimilate. While i agreee that this is understandable, this is a business decision of assimilate, the 48-month old company which has only one product: Scratch. They have to protect their product, as they have no other one. And especially if they are aiming at a exit-strategy (pure speculation).
Even as i pointed out months before the red camera was released, that not having a software for the customers of RED would cause the stir we are seeing now, it is important to understand that assimilates business method right now is to give customers an -individual- pricing, and therefore listprices might be causing problems. This has to be respected, even if some people (as me) say that this business model is the -exact- opposite of what the company red brought to the markets.
Closing this post, it is important to know, that there are many 4K realtime display, FX and processing alternatives in the market - which have more firepower than scratch regarding 4K RT i/o. And also more companies having more expertise, tradition and sheer number of supported raw-workflow.
Not only from the country i am living in (Germany, that would be DVS clipster and Iridas Venue among others), but also from the UK (filmlight baselight, quantel) , japan etc.
Scratch is a good software, and we might want to add it even to our -heavy- DI gear, but it is important to discuss these limitations and the market outlook.
If this sub-forum of reduser.net will be continously censored when discussing, besides the good things scratch offers, its weaknesses, then it is time to take this discussion elsewhere - and have this subforum become a marketing device instead of a discussion forum. I hope that this thread will prove the opposite - as anything else would be the opposite of the red approach.

Let´s get this straight.....The capture came from intelligence learned in waterboarding, obama would not allow waterboarding therefore, bin laden was caught because of actions taken during the Bush Administration. Got it! Click Here if you Like this Comment

0bama puffs out his chest and proclaims, HE got Bin Laden, He alone was the hero.

Consider the removal of two or three of our best generals in quick succesion - It is entirely possible to believe that their dismissal is the start of an evil plan to take out the finest we have and replace them with liberal tools to defang our military migh, and concurrently giving Abrams tanks, F16s and billions of dollars to the crazies running amok in Egypt.Panetta is only as honorable as his conscience demands, but at least he has finally spoken up and put an end to the disputed merits of waterboarding as a method of obtaining information.

Thank you #18. A little perspective is a good thing.The hypocrisy of the demented left is astounding. IMHO, the problem the progressives have in fighting the war on terror is coming to the realization that these seventh century barbarians are just that, barbarians. They play by their own rules handed down to them by their "holy men" and are totally unconcerned about what the world thinks about them. Therefore, anything they do is justified in their effort to defeat the Great Satan. That is why they are so savage. You can´t negotiate with this mindset. It must be totally decimated. The longer we reject this this thinking the more they are emboldened and the killing and maiming will continue. If we had the will, this could have ended years ago.

I resent people claiming we are as bad as the enemy and we use torture the same way they do. This is an outrageous insult and can be easily disproved: At the end of torture, you are no longer the same. You are missing fingernails, or an eye or maybe you have burn marks or spilled blood. At the end of waterboarding you´re physically fine, experience no permanent damage (if it´s done right) and the only thing you really feel is a lasting effect that you may have made a less than manly performance and you also have the humiliation of knowing you lost the test of wills. That´s it.Another proof waterboarding isn´t torture? No newspaper reporter would "volunteer" to have it done to them if they thought they´d die. See if they would volunteer to have a finger cut off or have electric wires placed you-know-where. Click Here if you Like this Comment

Coming up with an exciting, innovative business plan is hardly an easy task, especially when it means long nights spent doing research and coming up with larger-than-life business goals. However, the most frustrating thing isn't likely coming up with the plan itself or even making sense of confusing financial plans.The most frustrating thing can be all in a name. Why is it so difficult to come up with a witty, creative name that nobody has ever thought of but everyone will remember?Thankfully, the Startup Weekend team has created a tool at NameYour.co that entrepreneurs can use to create a hot business name - or at least use to get some inspiration and make the process easier.It's easy enough to use: People can input some keywords and terms into the generator, and in return they will get suggestions for available web addresses (especially helpful when a business has already come up with the perfect business name, but the domain name is taken by a different company) Twitter handles, Facebook addresses and even offer up some similar word suggestions.Although this may sound ridiculously easy, the U.S. Small Business Administration advises people to do a bit of research before making a final decision. Not only can business names or abbreviations be potentially offensive or embarrassing, they can also infringe on existing trademarks.Just because an existing, non-prominent business is already using an entrepreneur's desired business name doesn't mean it can't be used. However, care should be taken to ensure the existing business operates in a different industry and is located in another region to cut back on as much confusion as possible and safeguard against trademark laws.After all, most entrepreneurs are looking for a catchy business name - not a lawsuit.Small business marketing news brought to you by 123Print.com, provider of affordable custom business cards, postcards, letterhead and outdoor promotional items.
Small businesses owned by veterans in New Jersey requested and are receiving more loan money, according to a published report.
The Small Business Administration increased the amount of loan money it handed out to those businesses through when the fiscal year ended in September, The New Jersey Record reports. The SBA granted approval for 56 loans that amounted to more than $30 million.
One business in particular, Construction & Industrial Services in Lodi, was awarded a $350,000 loan from JPMorgan Chase. Owner John Moninger said he used the loan money that has been disbursed to buy assorted machinery as well as restock supplies.
"We got the loan before Sandy hit and because of that we were able to sell four new wood processors after the storm," the owner told the news source. "Without it, we would have been stalemated. Because we had the funds, we were able to grow as a business and fulfill the needs of the marketplace."
Businesses that are owned by veterans are exempt from paying fees on loans lower than $350,000, according to NJBiz. Effective January 1, the new initiative is supported by the Small Business Administration and it encourages the development of veterans' businesses and the expansion of their firms that already are in operation.
The SBA opted to slash fees on all loans it disburses that are less than $150,000, which began in early October.
"Veterans have historically shown an entrepreneurial spirit," deputy director for New Jersey Richard Zilg with the SBA told NJBiz. "A lot of veterans come home and come out of the service, and they are interested in starting businesses. Or maybe the veteran is a reservist who had a business and now they're coming home, and (an SBA loan) helps them reactivate their business."
Setting goals is an important method of enhancing productivity for employees who are bent on being efficient and gaining additional positive labels of the sort, according to a published report.
Three tenets may guide the effort to be more productive, Entrepreneur reports. Discerning what has captured the majority of one's attention is a goal that is important because it gauges productivity and helps one prepare accordingly for the task at hand.
Another method is to eliminate the word "should" from one's daily use because it imparts a less-than-positive trend that gets in the way of an effort to be productive and diverts attention and effort from doing what one has set out to do in the first place. This might be a challenge because all people have lists of what they ought to be doing. But controlling that can work wonders for productivity.
Eliminating distractions is a third method of driving productivity because they draw away from achievement and other productivity. Those distractions often are visual and auditory.
On Wall Street reports a recent analysis focused on how time management is a key indicator of how sustainable a practice is - and will be - as it plans future objectives.
For small- and medium-sized business owners, competition can be so fierce that they sometimes want to list their survival skills directly on their business cards. Little do some realize, but this rivalry exists not only among different SMBs, but also within individual organizations. With that said, SMB owners and supervisors need to ensure that they are successful in managing their staffs.
Regardless of how far they have come in terms of evolution, people are natural competitors, constantly sizing up one another. For this reason, individuals holding positions of power within an SMB should be sure to avoid certain tendencies that may thwart their roles as leaders.
According to Entrepreneur Magazine, particular habits that business owners may have could serve as signs of weakness. For example, management personnel may not even be aware of it, but they may do minor things like laugh uncomfortably or raise their voice at the end of every sentence whenever they are addressing staff members.
Because these tendencies are often subconscious, SMB owners should make an effort to be certain that they are doing neither one, unless they would like to earn themselves some undesirable labels. If company leaders demonstrate these habits, they will be unintentionally communicating to their employees that they are not confident or secure in their authoritative roles. This may inhibit SMB owners' ability to manage their staff in an effective manner, as others could question their capabilities.
Forbes pointed out that leaders should constantly remain fearless for their own benefit. By being overly self-conscious, SMB owners may cause themselves to be taken over by self-doubt. This will only result in their inability to make executive decisions, prompting them to waver and second-guess their choices instead of taking action. As a result, even some of the most minute issues can throw a wrench in SMBs' operations because upper-level staff members are unable to react quickly and confidently.
As many small- and medium-sized business owners know, starting a company from scratch is no easy endeavor. There are certain obstacles that will test entrepreneurs' faith as they build their SMB from the ground up. Those entertaining the possibility of embarking on a startup venture need to grow tough skin and confront these hurdles straight on, if they hope to be successful.
For some prospective business owners, the first roadblock that they encounter may be with making their SMB concepts a reality. Forbes spoke with Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, who pointed out that there is more to being an entrepreneur than having good ideas.
Ohanian explained that some people could discuss their revolutionary app or business ventures for hours on end, but when it comes to having the actual follow-through, many fall short. If individuals are serious about starting a business, then they need to just go for it and put their detailed plans into action.
While it is advisable to take a leap of faith when it comes to founding an SMB, entrepreneurs should be sure that they are not doing so with a sense of blind confidence. Ohanian stated that unless a business venture actually addresses a specific problem or makes improvements to an already-existing solution, then it might not be the best investment.
"Early on, people tend to focus on things like getting official company seals and letterheads, finding a law firm, filing patents etc.," Weebly co-founder David Rusenko told Entrepreneur Magazine, "but those things are actually incredibly easy to do."
Rusenko advised that instead of brainstorming ideas about the more minute aspects of a company, SMB owners should ask more fundamental questions. Among these considerations, they should focus their attention on the potential demand for their products and services. If the public does not need the goods they are thinking of selling, then they cannot expect their startups to take off any time soon.
In a market full of well-established companies, small- and medium-sized businesses may sometimes feel at a slight disadvantage when vying for customer attention. With a lack of brand recognition, capital, customers and overall credibility, some SMBs feel the need to surpass all that and really prove themselves as true competitors. In spite of any obstacles to which small businesses are subjected, companies can find a way to win over consumers with their products, according to The Guardian.
The most beneficial move that a small business could make to garner consumer respect would be to listen to the customers. The general public has the tendency to voice its opinion, telling SMBs exactly what it wants and what it doesn't.
Referencing various sources, such as focus groups or Internet forums, would enable companies to anticipate consumer demand. Using this information, a small business can create a product for which customers have actually already expressed a need or a desire. This would practically guarantee that a company had a better shot at success, as it would be giving consumers exactly what they want.
If a small business tested the waters with its new products, then it would be able to instantly gage how its business will be received and would be able to make necessary modifications before wasting time and effort. The Guardian advises that SMBs test-drive their products, letting consumers use them and then examining the generated feedback.
Due to our world's affinity for the Web, companies can best measure their products potential reception and sales by spreading the word through the Web, the Small Business Administration reports. As the Internet offers a broad and diverse pool of consumers, small businesses scrutinizing online commentary would have a more inclusive view on how their products would perform in the market.
While following consumer trends and listening to customer feedback is essential, The Guardian also points out that small businesses have to leave room for creativity. It is by thinking outside the box that companies could invent products that consumers didn't even know that they wanted, and this innovation would make them that much more successful.
Small-business marketing news brought to you by 123Print.com, provider of affordable business cards, custom business identity products, printed marketing products and office organization items.
The most difficult staffing challenge that small- and medium-sized businesses encounter is finding qualified workers. According to Small Business Trends, this problem may be due largely in part to SMBs' misguided approach to hiring and they can overcome this obstacle by making slight changes to how they recruit workers.
A recent poll conducted by Robert Half revealed that 60 percent of SMB owners feel that they are struggling to find workers that boast the necessary skills to complete the job. This report may seem paradoxical given the current unemployment rate and the number of Americans actively searching for a job, but it is not.
Small businesses may not be coming across the ideal candidates for the job because they're going about hiring in the completely incorrect way. SMBs obviously differ from large corporations, so they cannot use the same recruiting strategies - as they so often do, Small Business Trends reports.
Small businesses do not have brand names like bigger enterprises, and potential workers may be hesitant to commit themselves to a company that seems to still be in the initial stages of development. For this reason, SMBs have to really sell themselves, stressing the benefits of working for a smaller company. Individuals will respond to the opportunity to refine their skills with the kind of hands-on, versatile work that SMBs have to offer.
To successfully market itself and win over the skilled workers that it needs, an SMB should clearly communicate its company identity. By outlining its culture and objectives, an enterprise can attract applicants who are a good fit to join the staff.
SMBs should also rely on social media platforms to directly target the specific type of workers that they desire. Posting ads on generic employment websites will only generate a massive pool of unqualified candidates that they will then have to sift through, wasting time and resources.

http://nacins-beard.com/gallery/?s=... is a valid URL. A common way to generate it and URLs like it is:

This will return:
Why? Because most of the get_*_url functions check for .. on the entire URI, not limited to the path. My patch fixes this and uses a function that all of the url functions share, eliminating a bunch of dupe'd code.

add_to_path() sounds a bit like join_with_slashes(), see #19796 for patches.
comment:2 wonderboymusic — 12 months ago
- Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 3.6
join_with_slashes never made it into 3.5 - add_path_to_url works generically with any URL that already has a path or not and the passed path. The main point of it: it condenses code that is repeated all over the place (10 other functions!), and join_with_slashes does not.

Rereading dot-dot.diff, wouldn't you want to require $url? set_url_scheme() is going to return a formed host regardless but the path will only be appended if it both exists and is valid.

Are Brussels sprouts the new beets? For years, chefs delighted in turning the slippery red vegetable that nobody liked as a kid into one we couldn't wait to eat, glass of white in hand, with dollops of goat cheese and a light douse of vinaigrette. Now chefs have taken on another pet project, Brussels sprouts, and they're everywhere: at high-end American spots as well as bars, at burger joints and hip noodle houses. Although I like those crispy, salted leaves and many of the places that serve them, what I liked even more was the menu in front of me one recent, bitter cold night, a menu offering charcuterie, cheeses and clams to start off my meal — but, refreshingly, not a single...
