Thomas Hayes — July 22 2013 — in West Indies Project For the last three years, my wife Christine, my daughter (now 4 years old) Mojave, and I have spent half the year in the Dominican Republic monitoring the last remaining population of the critically endangered Ridgway's Hawk. We have also been a part of a reintroduction team to release this rare raptor into novel habitat in one of the Dominican Republic's most renouned resort areas, Punta Cana. Below is the latest account of "The Valentines Day Pair", written by Christine Deegear Hayes.

Marta Curti — 29 April 2013 — in West Indies Project The next morning – the beginning of the fourth day with no sign of the female from the Valentine's Day Pair (see Notes from the Field, 22 April 2013) started off gloomy. Dark clouds rolled across the sky and the weather ranged from heavy down pours to just raining really hard.I had decided that this would be a good day to catch up on office work, updating field notes and data entry, mainly.I had been working for a about an hour or so when a break in the weather finally came.About twenty minutes later my phone started ringing. It was Henry, one of the guards working in Cap Cana within the Valentine's Day Pair's territory. "Estoy mirando los dos gavilanes," he told me. He was seeing two hawks! I quickly gathered my gear – my binoculars andtheradio telemetry receiver wrapped in as many plastic bags as I could find to keep it dry (it had started raining again) – and headed out to the site Read more...Find more articles about Ridgway's Hawk, Neotropics Trouble in Paradise: An Update on the Valentine's Day Pair
Marta Curti — 22 April 2013 — in West Indies Project The sky was clear except for a few expansive clouds tinged pink by the rays of the rising sun. Egrets lazily flew by overhead, their great wings flapping golden in the early morning light. It was early and the air was cool and light, heavy only with the faint scent of the ocean tagging along on the tail end of an occasional breeze. The grass was green, the palm trees waved whenin thewind and the bougainvillea bloomed bright fuchsia. It seemed like a perfect day here in Dominican Republic, and it almost was, except for one nagging detail. This was going on the third day that we hadn't seen the female, ND, from the Valentine's Day Pair (see Notes from the Field, 20 March 2013).Up until a few days ago, she was regularly seen side by side with male AN as they worked together to build their nest, perched together, or fed together.Since ND's radio transmitter wasn't functioning, I had no way to track her so for two days I kept a close eye on AN. I hoped he would lead me to her, but he was always alone and often vocalizing loudly, as if calling for her. He never received a reply.

Marta Curti — 20 March 2013 — in West Indies Project For the past three field seasons, Christine and Thomas Hayes and I have been working on The Peregrine Fund's Ridgway's Hawk Conservation Project. Ridgway's Hawks are a critically endangered species with the only known breeding population found in a small national park in Dominican Republic. Christine and Thomas spend about 6 months of the year in-country monitoring the wild pairs in Los Haitises National Park and helping with releases of young birds. Since 2008 The Peregrine Fund has been releasing young wild birds into protected areas in the hopes of creating additional self-sustaining populations. For the first time, two of our released birds have paired up and are making a nesting attempt. What follows is Christine' account of her observations of this exciting moment in our project's history!

Marta Curti — 22 May 2012 — in West Indies Project It was just past 7 p.m. and the sun was quickly setting behind the fields of sugar cane and grass that lined the narrow road. Roaring motorcycles, and buses with music blaring from their windows whizzed past me, their lights fading into the darkness as I made my way slowly towards La Herradura – one of the release sites for the Ridgway's Hawk in the Dominican Republic.I was on my way there with two young hawks in tow and a large bag filled with frozen meat (hawk food). I was coming from Los Limones – the small town that borders Los Haitises National Park, where the last known population of this species exists. As part of The Peregrine Fund and the Hispaniolan Ornithological Society's conservation efforts, we are conducting an assisted dispersal project whereby we take up to 10 chicks from wild nests and release them in other protected areas in the country, in the hopes that they will eventually breed and establish additional wild populations. That afternoon, my co-workers in Los Limones, Thomas and Christine Hayes, had just returned from the field with two healthy, beautiful chicks and my job was to get them safely to the release site.

Marta Curti — 29 July 2011 — in West Indies Project It was still dark – 3:00 in the morning to be exact. I woke up, dressed, gathered the telemetry receiver, binoculars, rope, machete, food and water that I would need for the day and headed out into the field. I was in search of AC – a young Ridgway's Hawk that had been released four days prior, but had not yet returned to the release site for food.

Marta Curti — 22 July 2011 — in West Indies Project On April 13, Thomas and Christine Hayes and I placed two young wild-hatched Ridgway's Hawks into the hack box (a special enclosure designed to temporarily house the birds prior to release) set in a high tree overlooking the forest of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. As part of an assisted dispersal program carried out by The Peregrine Fund and the Sociedad Ornitológica de la Hispaniola, the chicks would spend one week in the box before being released into their new home. The seven days spent in the enclosure gives them time to become accustomed to their new surroundings.

Marta Curti — 15 July 2011 — in West Indies Project With only an estimated 200-250 individuals left in the world, and the only known sustainable population found in Los Haitises National Park (LHNP), Dominican Republic, the Ridgway's Hawk is a critically endangered species in need of strong conservation actions. The Peregrine Fund,in conjunctionwith the Sociedad Ornitologica de la Hispaniola, has been studying this species for years, and has begun what is known as an "assisted dispersal" program. The idea behind this is to take wild hatched chicks from some nests in LHNP and release them in other areas of the island where this species once existed that still contain suitable habitat. The hope is that, eventually, this will create additional populations on the island, thus making the species as a whole less vulnerable to major catastrophes such as hurricanes or disease outbreak.

Marta Curti — 26 April 2011 — in West Indies Project Lush. Green. Verdant. Vibrant. This is what the forest in Los Haitises National Park (Dominican Republic)should look like. This is what it did look like once upon a time – before fires and machetes felled much of it to the ground.I have been brought to this small patch of uncut forest by my friend and co-worker, Nohine, who has been a part of the Ridgway's Hawk Project for years and who knows the layout of the hills and trails of this park like most people know the layout of their own back yards. When we first enter the shaded landscape, I can feel the temperature drop 10 degrees - if not more. Nohine shows me an endemic palm tree and a large Ceiba tree – the first one I have seen since my arrival in the Dominican Republic in early March. I can hear songbirds singing in the trees and butterflies of all colors and sizes abound. For a few moments, I can pretend that this is all there is – just flowers and trees and winged creatures. I can forget the tragic loss of land that we witnessed today. But alas, we can't spend much time here – maybe ten minutes or so. It is getting late. We have been walking for more than 5 hours and still have a ways to go before we get back to the cabin, so we grab our packs and head back onto the trail – back into the blazing hot sun and the now even-more-noticeable lack of trees to shade us.

Marta Curti — 15 April 2011 — in West Indies Project A cacophony of sounds surround me: the rhythmic hymns that float from open church doors, the braying of donkeys, the clop, clop, clop of horses trotting down the cobblestone street, the screaming laughter of children, the roar of motorcycles, the occasional Michael Jackson tune blaring from someone's home, and finally, the high whistle of a Ridgway's Hawk as it flies into view. This particular Ridgway's Hawk is the adult male from the "Titico" pair which is nesting in a high palm tree just inside the town of Los Limones in the Dominican Republic. The town itself is small, with houses built of wood and palm, where roosters, dogs and goats roam with equal abandon.Here, the people are friendly and welcoming, greeting you with a "buenos dias" or an "hola" or a silent, cheery wave. Vendors young and old walk the streets selling sweets: coconut bread or toasted sugary peanuts something akin to peanut brittle, and men carrying machetes and wearing gum boots walk to their "conucos" (fields) to plant and harvest corn, squash, yucca, bananas, and many other delicious foods. Sour oranges grow everywhere in the forest and make for a delicious treat after hours of hiking beneath a hot sun. The town of Los Limones, just outside of Los Haitises National Park where the largest concentration of this species is found, is where we are stationed for the next few months as we survey for nesting pairs of Ridgways Hawks.To date this year, we have found about 35 pairs and all but two seem to be in some stage of nesting.

Marta Curti — 9 February 2005 — in West Indies Project
Crystal blue waters, white sand beaches and lush vegetation; these are the views we take in as we drive from the airport in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (DR), through the countryside, on our way to Los Haitises National Park, located in the northeast portion of the country. I have come from Panama to spend a week working with biologists Jesus Almonte and Pedro Rodriguez, to help implement an education program designed to promote the conservation of the endangered, endemic, Ridgway's Hawk. My job would be to help them develop presentations, activities and a means to evaluate the progress of this program, which will take place in communities that surround Ridgway's Hawk territory.

The Ectomorph's Guide to Gaining Mass
Many people do not realize how hard it is for a true ectomorph to gain weight. Being a pure ectomorph myself, I have experienced these challenges first hand. Over the last year three months I have devoted all of my resources to gaining weight, and had stellar results. I have found some things that work and some that don't. I have filtered out the ones that do not work and culminated a program for ectomorphs to gain mass. This is from my own experience and does work.
For the ectomorph diet is the most pivotal aspect of gaining weight. This holds true for any, but for the ectomorph it will be impossible to gain any sort of mass without sticking to a diet. The ecto diet should be extremely high in calories with no particular emphasis on one macro over the other. Carbs should be 50% of the diet, Proteins should be 30% of the diet, and Fats should make up 20% of the diet. A diet containing only 30% protein goes against many of the diets proposed in bodybuilding, but when calories are kept extremely high, protein will also be high.
For instance, I recommend that ectomorphs eat roughly 4500+ calories per day. If 50% of that is carbs that means that you will be consuming roughly 650 carbs per day, 400 grams of proteins, and 150 grams of fat. 400 grams of protein is quite a lot of protein under any circumstances. Protein should come from sources such as BEEF, fish, and chicken. Don't be afraid to eat a double quarter pounder with cheese every now and again. Carbs should come from mainly high quality sources such as sweet potatoes, whole wheat pasta, fruit, etc. but a fair amount (about 30%) may come from fast carb sources such as white bread, chips, white pasta, etc.
Fats should also be 70% healthy fats and 30% from other sources. Healthy fats are nuts, fish, and oils like olive and grape seed.
Ectomorphs should eat every 2-3 hours, these should be full meals. One meal should be eaten directly before bed. A potent weight gaining shake that can be taken before sleep is as follows: 4 scoops protein mixture (whey, casein, soy), One table spoon extra virgin olive oil, and 8 ounces whole milk, optional: 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter.
Training for the ectomorph should be different than their meso or endo counterparts. Ectomorphs should workout no more than 4 times per week, with 3 being optimal. These workouts should be brief, but extremely intense. Growth occurs during the rest phase, so it would only make sense that ectomorphs need to rest more in order to speed growth. During the rest period actually rest. Do not waste calories on various aerobic activities, this will only slow growth. If you must do some cardio, constrict it to only once or twice per week, though my true recommendation is no cardio.
As far as exercises go, stick to the heavy compound movements for most of your time in your workouts.
Acceptable: SQUATS, DEADLIFTS, Bench Press, Shoulder Press, Barbell Rows, Pull-ups, Barbell Curls, French Press, T-bar Rows, Standing Calf Raises, SLDL, etc.
Unacceptable: High rep adductor work while checking out the girls running on the treadmill, any product advertised on an infomercial, working out for four hours at a time, etc.
Machines have their place and can be very effective in building muscle, but most of the exercises you perform should be the free weight variety.
Ectomorphs must squat. This sounds simple, but for ectomorphs growth will be severely limited without heavy barbell squats. Squat until you feel as if you are going to die and you have probably done a good job. Deadlifts are the second most beneficial exercise for ectomorphs. These exercises not only cause the target areas to grow, but stimulate the entire body to grow.
Reps should be in the 6-10 range and weights should be as heavy as possible. As you progress throw in things such as rest pause, negatives, and static holds.
Supplementation does not play a very big role in the growth process, but it does play a role nonetheless. The following are supplements that I have found to get results in lean mass gain.
1. Creatine- Any form will be fine. Creatine stimulates weight gain via enhanced recovery, increased muscular function, and increased cell volume.
2. ZMA- Proven to raise free test in athletes (Brilla), also increases sleep quality.
3. AAKG (Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate) - Increases vasodilation and nutrient flow to the muscles. Increases muscular pumps.
4. Protein Powder- This should really be in the food section because I don't even consider it a supplement. This is a necessity.
The Human Factor
The human factor encompasses all of the previously mentioned areas. It is all up to the individual to grow. How much are you willing to sacrifice? You will find that the amount you are willing to sacrifice will be equal to the gains you make. If you are not gaining, it is probably not your genetics or a lack of supplements, it is most likely your own fault. Bodybuilding is more mental than anything else. Constantly have a mindset to improve and meet your goals and don't let anyone else get in your way.
One must always keep learning about new ways to gain mass, to squeeze out every ounce of potential. Keep learning, working hard, and working smart and you will reach your goals whether you are an ectomorph, mesomorph, or endomorph.
Good Luck,

Logo of Wikipedia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article relies on references to primary sources. (October 2011) |
The logo of Wikipedia, an Internet-based free multilingual encyclopedia, is an unfinished globe constructed from jigsaw pieces—some pieces are missing at the top—inscribed with glyphs from many different writing systems. As displayed on the web pages of the English-language version of Wikipedia, there is a wordmark "Wikipedia" under the globe, and below that the text "The Free Encyclopedia", in the free open-source Linux Libertine font.[1][2]
Each piece bears a glyph (letter or character), symbolizing the multilingualism of Wikipedia. They include the Cyrillic letter И ("I"), the Greek letter Ω (Omega), the Korean syllabic block 위 (wi), the Arabic letter و (Waw), the Chinese character 維 (Wéi), the Hindi akshar वि (Wi) at the left, the Bangla borno উ (U) , the Kannada akshara ವಿ (Vi) at the bottom, the Hebrew (and also Yiddish) letter ו (Vav), the Georgian ვ (Vin) and at the uppermost left the Armenian Վ (Vev). As with the Latin letter "W", these glyphs are in most cases the first glyph of the name "Wikipedia" rendered in that language (for example, 維基大典 in Classical Chinese; similarly the Japanese katakana ウィ makes the sound "wi").[3]
The empty space at the top represents the (incomplete) nature of the project, and languages yet to be added.
An initial design of the logo was created by Paul Stansifer, a 21-year-old Wikipedia user, whose entry won a design competition run by the site in 2003. It was then improved by former student and software developer, David Friedland. He changed the styling of the jigsaw pieces so that their boundaries seemed indented and simplified their contents to be a single glyph, rather than a word.[4] In the process, some errors were introduced.[4] In particular, one piece of Devanagari script and one piece of Japanese katakana were incorrectly displayed.[5]
In 2007, a modified 3D model was developed by Wikimedia Taiwan for Wikimania, when they distributed a 3-inch diameter spherical puzzle based on the logo, that attendees could piece together. It did not add other letters on the parts that cannot be seen on the 2D logo, but used that space to include small logos of the sister projects and information about Wikimania. A variant of that model was used to build a person-sized Wikiball that spun on a stand, featured during the event.[6] This led to a renewed interest in getting a proper 3D model for the logo.
By 2007, users on listservs discovered that the logo had some minor errors. The errors were not immediately fixed, because, according to Friedland, he could not locate the original project file. Friedland added that "I have tried to reconstruct it, but it never looks right" and that the logo "should be redrawn by a professional illustrator."[4] Kizu Naoko (木津 尚子 ), a Wikipedian, said that most Japanese users supported correcting the errors. In an e-mail to Noam Cohen of The New York Times, Kizu said that "It could be an option to leave them as they are. Most people don't take it serious [sic] and think the graphical logo is a sort of pot-au-feu of various letters without meaning."[4]
Current logo[edit]
In late 2009, the Wikimedia Foundation undertook to fix the errors and generally update the puzzle globe logo. Among other concerns, the original logo did not scale well and some letters appeared distorted.[7] For the new logo, the Wikimedia Foundation defined which characters appear on the "hidden" puzzle pieces, and had a three-dimensional computer model of the globe created to allow the generation of other views.[8] A partial 3D globe was commissioned for the Wikimedia office.[9]
The new logo was rolled out on the projects in May 2010. It features the new 3D rendering of the puzzle globe, with corrected characters (and the Klingon character replaced by a Geʿez character). The wordmark has been modified from the Hoefler Text font to the open-source Linux Libertine font, and the subtitle is no longer italicized. The "W" character, which was used in various other places in Wikipedia (such as the favicon) and was a "distinctive part of the Wikipedia brand", had "crossed" V glyphs in the original logo, while Linux Libertine has a joined W letter shape. As a solution, the "crossed" W was added as an OpenType variant to the Linux Libertine font.[1]
Trade mark[edit]
This section requires expansion with: registration status in the USA and other countries. (September 2011) |
The (former) logo was registered as a European Community Trade Mark by Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. The trade mark bears a filing date of 31 January 2008 and a registration date of 20 January 2009.[10]

We would all like another £7,000 to feel happy, research has claimed.
Isn't that one of the most pointless claims ever? Of course we would all like some more money - no-one is exactly going to turn it down if they are offered it are they?
In other news, I have heard reports of a bear emptying its bowels in the woods recently and also that the Pope is Catholic.
But let me delve deeper into this wondrous piece of research - aptly named 'Times of our Lives' - by insurance giant Aviva - yes that firm with the irritating adverts of the non-singing variety. "Which one?" I hear you cry.
On average we all would like an extra £7,236 a year before tax to be really happy, the research claims, meaning most people face a monthly gap of £411 between their current income and what they feel would give them a more comfortable life.
Unsurprisingly the most cash-strapped age group are those aged between 25 and 34 who want an additional £12,003 a year (£627 a month) to live the life they dream of.
Next in the 'me, me, me' line are 35-44 year olds who would like around £600 extra a month - equal to £10,762 a year. This is because of increased debts such as mortgages, paying for children and other sundries most normal people incur.
Over 65s are a little more modest, settling for an extra £380 a year (£23 a month after tax). Bless.
But in the words of Sir Mick Jagger: "You can't always get what you want."
Most of us will be lucky to get a below inflation payrise this year. And the next. And the one after that. It is called the 'real world'.
Remind me to film my boss' face and send the clip to Aviva when I sit down with him and demand an extra £10,762 this year.
Maybe my reader(s) will suggest where I can deposit said video clip.
Views - both channel related and everyday life observations - from CRN Editor Sara Yirrell. If you have any gossip that you would like to share with me please do get in touch and also we would love to see your comments at the end of the blog.

Presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney campaigning.
Whereas guy you may have heard of his name's Paul Ryan he's a congressman from Wisconsin and Wisconsin figures very heavily into the fall.
And guess what we get to do a dry run.
Right here in the badger state on Tuesday with the recall election the Democrats brought out against Wisconsin governor Scott Walker and this is power play and I am Chris -- -- And we are in Madison Wisconsin can you believe that we are right here in Madison Wisconsin.
Now there -- a lot of people who know a lot of things about Wisconsin politics but guess what nobody knows more.
And my friend Steve -- from the weekly standard he's a senior writer for the weekly standard argument you.
But I doubt -- -- how about this if we make -- -- if we make it a loop and we say nobody knows more about Wisconsin politics.
And fried cheese it.
And right and cured meats and craft beer beer that's true that I cloture you just -- that's the thing about politics you just have to make the clause correct and then it will be true that's how that works.
All right so obviously Steve we're here because they're gonna have this recall election on Tuesday.
I was out with -- -- in the team for fresh report crisscrossing the state yes they had a total blast it was absolutely great.
You had a different day.
That was an interesting day I came in.
And I went to see Scott Walker I give a speech -- greet people at a victory center in German town which is outside of Milwaukee about twenty minutes.
And then went to a rally a get out the vote rally labor get the vote rally featuring Jesse Jackson.
Com on the northwest side of Milwaukee and it was.
-- -- -- -- What about you you later if a few things that they said and I'm sure you've already -- over the weekly standard right I have indeed yet but they're give us some highlights.
Well and it it was a very inquisitive about 500.
Seats in this said it's -- the deaths destiny.
Youth plaza.
500 seat there about 250 of them filled many with.
Union leaders labor leaders.
And there were a series of short speeches that proceeded Jesse -- speech and I would say Jesse Jackson was probably the most moderate of all of the speakers.
That might not got a sentence that writers from the weekly standard used a lot.
No I mean.
All he it was compare.
Compared Scott Walker to.
Governor Wallace.
From Alabama not not a super popular guy -- -- civil rights movement suggesting he was a segregationist.
And wanted to strip voting rights away.
But we had some I think some very aggressive language inappropriate language from several of the speakers the head of the amalgamated transit union.
Okay there's a -- there's a fried cheese place.
Knowing there's a price -- right there and there and there and then there made it ladies and gentlemen of the Internet you know Brett -- he just stand by for the she's on.
Yeah this is this is Internet television bit we're changing the face of the Internet right now Brett -- OK art I'm in no doubt that you should -- the right he can't we don't feel we don't prefer that term that's a pejorative terms Steve we prefer the term Internet television thank you very much about your way -- -- we have -- -- one question before you go what will we see -- special report tonight.
It is going to be we've been bounced around the state you aware that we had a total blast and we spent a lot of time in the car.
And we have both campaigns covered and we'll have that Governor Walker online at it.
And of one thing you'll also get to see is Brad at these locations around the state it's totally fine I was -- -- -- to do with it lost me.
Blades that we had.
I'm gonna save some special alone time for me now we didn't have the -- video -- -- video got lost I didn't leave with an eight -- -- -- -- Yeah -- -- with Steve and Steve as well right here at it here -- you like the personification under the embodiment take that account I -- never -- in the tonight so back to this it says so back to the serious business of politics.
At this rally just give us a sampling.
Of the kind of language.
So the the head of the amalgamated transit union from New York had flown -- he's organizing is transit workers most of us drivers and he gave a speech that began by saying.
We all remember eleven years ago that it in this country.
When we were attacked.
On 9/11 he went on to compare Scott Walker's budget reforms.
With the 9/11 attacks suggesting that they were similar so who's al-Qaeda in this scenario.
Al-Qaeda in this area what's interesting he sort of mixed his metaphors and and turned them around he suggested that they were that the walker reforms were in effect an attack on.
Public employees way in which case I guess Scott Walker then would be like al-Qaeda right.
But he later said that Scott Walker is trying to convince people that public employees are worse than -- -- sound and -- and that's basically a direct quote so.
So you so he is both.
Al-Qaeda and Karl Rove which I take it in this group is viewed not super little doubt you'll love people of this I'd say the truth about Wisconsin politics and this is this has been to really.
Said the state went through political reordering in the 1960s and into the seventy's it was -- part of a Nixon realignment.
In -- the -- was a democratic state essentially but there was room for moderate Republicans so it was a slight it was a light blue state.
Was essentially the norm for Wisconsin Barack Obama carried the state by fourteen points in 2008.
Now it's different this situation has changed in this state very dramatically and I'm -- West Virginia and.
I'm my home state is going through a realignment currently it's painful it's difficult.
But talk to us about now as a -- -- guy things are different now -- Wisconsin has as.
Wanted to become a blue a purple state -- from a blue state to a purple state.
Maybe get a red state for quite some time if you remember back to the 2000.
Democrats won both in 2002004.
By a combined total of about 70500.
Votes so.
This was -- -- this wasn't these were two elections that were very very close before Barack Obama have the book that you suggest in 2008.
I think -- Wisconsin Republicans led by Scott Walker think that the state.
Is really turning you have.
Behind us you have a legislature that is dominated by Republicans the state senate is now evenly divided.
With the retirement of one republic.
-- Republican member but the assembly is dominated by Republicans the governor is a Republican.
Com and you've got increasingly prominent Republicans from Wisconsin on the national scene you've got Ron Johnson.
Who is elected in the 2010 wave as a Tea Party Republican is strong spokesman for conservatism.
In Washington Paul Ryan that we Paul Ryan of course Paul Ryan -- I would say is doing more to shape the policy agenda Republican Party than anybody.
Wright's previous Bryan Adams he writes in rhymes with time and don't forget that that's the -- If that's very good point we have something I've never thought it that we remember you come up with I don't know probably Paris and -- just ask just ask him.
-- -- -- -- -- previous gave a speech yesterday.
At this Scott Walker in Germantown and he said you know.
Or Scott Walker actually was speaking -- you know I I grew up in delve -- small town called element.
And fifteen miles to my west.
Was Paul Ryan they're roughly the same agent twenty miles to my east was Wright's previous -- and that's quite a corridor of the Republican thinking it's a chord or over.
Public image that the state is essentially -- this -- and you need to -- this -- because this is going to be very important in the -- this state is going to be a battleground -- Barack Obama leads in the real -- average of -- By just a few points.
This is going to be hard -- no matter why.
But the way to remember the state is this is that there's basically dividing line down the middle out to what no player or some thing.
Which is you have -- western part of the say that's a lot like Minnesota heavily democratic democratic farmer labor party kind of folks and then on the eastern side of the state.
You got a bunch of Sheboygan.
German republic and enthusiasm and it's so it's a bright so the way it was a purple -- was that it was a bright red state and a bright blue state right combined into one and it created a truce.
What Tom -- big blue dot in Milwaukee right exactly now what Tom Barrett that governor the mayor of Milwaukee who's the democratic candidate to replace walker.
Is trying to do is turn it back to those old days he says we don't want to be.
A red state or a blue state we can hold here in the purple I wrote today in my power play which you can get simply by following me -- -- firewall on Twitter.
I -- today that's not gonna happen you agree.
That it -- gonna go back in time in.
I would be surprised given the consistency we've seen in polling over the past six weeks.
With Scott Walker only once as I recall.
Fallen below 50% and I think that was on -- but democratic poll that was leaked.
To the media he's been above 50% there's some anecdotal evidence that the margin of victory he goes on to win.
Might be even larger because people who Democrats that supported bear it and some independents.
Don't necessarily love Scott Walker but they object to the recall process object to the recall process and also object to the idea of having to re litigate all of this all over again I'm sure.
-- we stay with us because we need we need we need your help and I wanna say this just because I want to be a little mushy.
Steve loves this state so much it's so sincere and it's so humbly offered it's really it's nice to be around.
-- we're gonna take a quick break but then we're gonna start talking to these Wisconsin polish politicians when we come back -- Stick around.

Wheaton to be treated for moth infestation
WHEATON – Residents of Wheaton may soon see a small yellow plane flying around the city to help fight a moth infestation that reaches across Illinois, according to a news release from the city.
The Illinois Department of Agriculture and Environmental Programs has scheduled Wheaton as one of the next municipalities to receive treatment against the European Gypsy Moth. The moth is an invasive species and one of the most damaging forest and tree pests in the United States, according to the release, and is firmly established in the state of Illinois.
There is no set date for the plane to drop roughly 6 grams per acre of the biological product Disrupt II over Wheaton. The IDAEP says that the product helps prevent mating in the area and is completely safe for humans, animals, non-target organisms and the environment. To learn more about the process, visit the Illinois Department of Agriculture website.

Infiniband (and others) can be pushed even further over silver conductors (or carbon or super conductors) ... Heck, you could make the above case for any protocol performance pushed to the upper limits of meat space (physical realities). Consider a protocol as being reliable or workable, when changing the means of connectivity to another medium.

Incremental performance improvements of late over metal conductors merely prove the need ... metal conductor data transmission is falling behind Moore's "law". This is going to become very important, very soon as more advanced, dramatically improved performance Beowulf systems are built. My vote would be for the most hardware / firmware efficient protocol considering energy budget v. performance v. the space allowed.

Imagine having a twin engined aircraft running inside your server farm ... being something most of mortals can not afford, let alone survive.) I still pose the question: which hardware protocol would be optimum for tight clusters of processors sharing a common bus (or other local hardware network) in a Standard Temperature & Pressure environment?

It does require the IrfanView graphics program to convert the cover graphic to a BMP file. http://www.irfanview.com (When the updated script doco comes out for MM 2.5, the ImageConvert function may eliminate the need for an external jpg-->BMP step)
Add this to your scripts.ini:
- Code: Select all
Create a ShowCover.vbs file in your scripts directory and update the path to IrfanView as needed.
- Code: Select all
Sub ShowCover
Set fso = SDB.Tools.FileSystem
Set itm = SDB.Player.CurrentSong
Set AlbumArt = itm.AlbumArt
if (AlbumArt.count > 0) Then
Set Image = AlbumArt.Item(0).Image
fname = "Cover.jpg"
Set falbum = fso.CreateTextFile( "C:\tmp\Cover.jpg", True)
falbum.WriteData Image.ImageData, Image.ImageDataLen
' Prepare WScript.Shell object, which can be used for execution of applications
Set WShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
' This WShell.Run is one long line, do not LINE WRAP
WShell.Run "c:\bin\irfanview\i_view32.exe c:\tmp\Cover.jpg /silent /convert=c:\tmp\Cover.bmp", 7, 1
WShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\Wallpaper", "c:\tmp\Cover.bmp"
WShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\TileWallpaper","1"
WShell.run "rundll32.exe user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters 1,True"
end if
end sub
Then when you play a song that has embedded cover art your desktop wallpaper should show the cover image as your tiled wallpaper. ONLY shows art that is stored as a tag in the MP3.

The colorful Holidays and Celebrations set explores how different religious and cultural holidays and observances are celebrated around the world. Although shared beliefs unite the seven world regions and allow celebrations to cross international borders, individual countries and cultures add nuances to these festivities to create their own unique traditions. Each volume in this set is divided into two parts. The first part introduces readers to the origins, history, and common practices associated with the holidays. The second part explores how the geography, culture, and history of a region have shaped the way in which communities celebrate these holidays, describing the unique traditions and customs of each region.

Frank McCourt served 2 years in the U.S. Army in the '50s and visited Belfast and Limerick while stationed in Germany.I can't speak for other Irish natives who honorably served in the U.S. military, but during my 4 years in the Marine Corps, I greatly missed my many Irish friends in NYC, especially while stationed in the Philippines. The 'way' I am now as a active member of the American Legion (a bhfuil meas mór aige ar theanga na nGael) is strongly influences by my Marine Corps experience.

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
-- -- We've seen the images today of angry protesters in Michigan heating up all over Michigan but particularly in Lansing but despite the push back.
The house there has approved a right to work bill that governor Rick Snyder is prepared to sign tomorrow.
Governor Snyder joins us now from Lansing governor thank you so what I know you're very very busy.
We've seen the video all day there's a lot of questions about what the law is and what it isn't the president weighed in on his vision of the bill let me just play.
What he says the bill -- and get your reaction to it.
-- -- -- I just gotta say this what we shouldn't be doing is trying to take away.
Your rights to bargain for better way to.
Trying to take away your rights to bargain is that what this bill is.
No not at all this has nothing to do with collective bargaining I expect believe in collective bargaining and this is about worker freedom.
This is about the relationship between the union and workers.
And this is a situation we're giving workers better -- -- choose to and I have their dollars go to the union if they don't see value.
So in fact I don't view this is anti union I view this as an opportunity for the unions to really step up and show why they -- values to workers.
-- one workers see that value they can sign up and if they don't hopefully unions or more responsive but the second thing that I'll do is bring jobs to Michigan.
The -- bring more -- better job source state.
Well when you have the president of the United States this describing it according -- -- That could possibly be one of the reasons why tempers have become so when flight we have some people calling for blood or at least.
Using that kind of rhetoric we -- state representative Doug Greece talking about that in the legislator let's play a sound from that.
Yeah we're going to pass something that will -- and do a hundred years of labor relations and there won't be broad.
There will be blood we have the Lansing mayors saying very similar things on our broadcast -- earlier today is there any kind of any kind of evidence that there's a coordinated effort to incite violence in the state.
Now on those comments -- appropriate if you step back and look at.
The union movement has done a lot of things in Michigan the labor movement if -- back in history and last century the 20s30s and forties people flocked to join the union because they get a lot of great things with.
-- wages working benefits all all those kind of things but if you go to that they should they show that value proposition that day and if they don't.
We shouldn't tell workers they have to give their hard earned dollars to an organization that isn't helping them.
And so this is about being -- worker and giving them the freedom to choose well have you reached out to the president to say specifically Mr.
You you are -- are misdiagnosed.
And what our solution is to the problem.
Well we've been active in Michigan having that dialog I've talked to lot of labor leaders.
This really to put in perspective that again this is about being pro worker -- -- anti union about giving workers the freedom to choose.
And then again if you look at the experience in Indiana which did similar legislation back in February.
They've got thousands more jobs coming to the state because businesses are looking to right to work states and so they'll be an added benefit or for workers and unions and our state to -- -- -- being here in Michigan.
We're looking now at video of of what happened today and again its -- -- -- the question of who started what.
-- is always open for discussion but it got pretty violent I'm just wondering if these are local union leaders.
That are inciting some of the more violent episodes -- their folks from outside.
Yeah there was no major violence today at all as a practical matter there are also a lot of people coming in from out of state on this particular one but I think.
And hall a lot of people behave well there are few instances of trouble but working in this behind us the legislation has been passed it's coming in my desk and I look forward to -- -- -- -- weren't better jobs for our citizens now Michigan has one of the highest jobless rates in the country I think it's over 9% if I'm not wrong.
It how much do you think this bill will go to -- in more jobs into the state.
On the Indiana case just since February you're talking with several thousand jobs and -- add up.
So it can make a difference were the comeback state United States already.
-- we're at the bottom for a whole decade we have the six fastest growing academy.
This last year we've got many other good things going on this we'll continue that path in terms of bringing more -- -- jobs and expansions to Michigan.
You're very successful businessman you were you -- Gateway computers you had to venture capital firm.
Is is there any thing that you can use from your business experience that's helping you in what you're doing now.
Oh absolutely it's about servicing the customer.
I'm because I look at the -- state government it's all about customer service and that's again what this is all about.
It's about half helping our citizens by customers.
Find more and better jobs and future for their kids and -- focus and that that's why don't fight with other politicians other levels of government.
Because it adds no value adopt the focus of all of us in the public sector should be how do we get the bus services to our citizens and by giving workers more choice that's a key element.
And governor we are gonna be so I just due to work get it on the record will be signing both bills tomorrow correct.
I'm S as I get those bills I'll be making a review and then signing governor Rick Snyder from Michigan governor thank you very much for coming and I know you're quite busy.
-- great to be with you thank you appreciate it well.

Members of the Sarasota County Planning Commission signed off Thursday on three of five comprehensive plan amendments proposed by Lakewood Ranch developer Schroeder-Manatee Ranch for a 5,500-acre property south of the Lakewood Ranch Corporate Park.
SMR officials have said all proposed changes are critical for moving forward with the project, called the Villages of Lakewood Ranch South project. It would bring more than 5,000 homes to the area.
"It's a very delicate balance to make everything work," said Todd Pokrywa, SMR's vice president of planning. "That's why we've identified from the very beginning these issues in the comprehensive plan to make this (project) viable for us. The site's very constrained because of its geographic configuration. Without the approval of these five development requests, the obstacles would give us substantial physical development problems.
Planning commissioners granted requests to widen Lakewood Ranch Boulevard from two to four lanes from University Parkway to Fruitville Road, remove a 126-acre greenway from the Gum Slough area and remove a greenbelt from the north end of the property along University Parkway.
They denied requests for a change in width of buffers and a change along the southern greenway, arguing that the changes may go against the intent of Sarasota's 2050 plan, which details how development should occur in various sections of the county.
The planning commission's recommendation is expected to go before Sarasota County commissioners June 9.
"We're very hopeful the board will consider and transmit all five," Pokrywa said. "The board has been more involved than the planning commission in these issues. We're very optimistic that they'll look very favorably at it."
Assuming Sarasota County commissioners approve all five changes in June, the proposed changes would then head to the Department of Community Affairs for review and approval.

One of the finest communities in Pennsylvania, the borough of North Wales is a delightful mix of past and present in the heart of the state. With its high quality of life, family-friendly atmosphere and close proximity to Interstates 476 and 276, North Wales apartments for rent practically sell themselves. Ideally situated between Philadelphia and Bethlehem, many families here enjoy the tight-knit feel of a small town, but still have all of the perks of a big city nearby. Despite its close location to one of the largest cities in the United States, North Wales is also a very affordable place to live. According to City-Data, the cost of living index in the area is not much more than the U.S. average.
North Wales was originally part of the William Penn grant, a rich farming community that was comprised mostly of Quakers, in 1702. Since most of the earliest settlers came from the Qwynedd area of northern Wales, the growing borough settled on the name of North Wales, and it stuck. Once the railroad made its way out of Philly and into North Wales, the city saw a period of expansive growth. Although it has changed its ways over the years, the residents here still have respect for the past. Many of the homes along Main Street still preserve the 18th century architecture that has made the city famous. Today, the borough is home to more than 3,200 residents, according to City-Data. Although this charming community still has a great deal of respect for its past, residents here are very excited to see what the future holds.
This borough takes great pride in local business - so much so that one of the city's most prized community gatherings is called Second Fridays and revolves around promoting the local shops, restaurants and businesses in North Wales. The city's downtown has undergone a renaissance in recent years, and the upkeep of these businesses has a great deal to do with its success.

Public Safety officers patrol the campus around the clock, year round in marked police vehicles, on foot, and on patrol bicycles. Officers are primarily responsible for maintaining a safe and secure living and working environment, emergency response, facility security and property protection, traffic and enforcement of campus parking regulations, and enforcement of applicable federal, state, and local laws, and College policies and regulations. Officers are assigned as liaisons to specific residence halls and work with Resident Assistants and other Campus Life staff to promote general well-being and safety in the residence halls. Officers work closely with our Campus Life partners in the assigned buildings to provide training and information to promote crime prevention awareness and to develop healthy relationships with the residents of the building.
The department also maintains a twenty-four hour communications and dispatch office. Call 717-245-1349 for non-emergency information and general service requests. The communications office has radio and back-up emergency telephone communication links with the local emergency response agencies. The central fire and security alarm receiver is located in the communications office allowing constant monitoring of the system. Security cameras located throughout campus, and the card access system, are also monitored by the DPS communications office. The office is open and accessible for walk-in comments and assistance twenty-four hours per day. The Department of Public Safety is located in the Kaufman Building at the corner of West Louther and Cherry Streets (400 W. North Street).
To report a crime or an emergency on campus, call the Department of Public Safety. The Public Safety "Hot Line" to report an emergency from on campus phones is extension 1111. Simply dial 1111 and you will be connected to the Public Safety emergency telephone line.
**If you would like to report a cime but remain anonymous click on the image to the right.
If you observe a crime or a suspicious incident, call immediately. Don't assume someone else has made the call. Try to provide the dispatcher with accurate, detailed information about the problem. When reporting an emergency try to explain your needs as calmly as you can. STAY ON THE LINE until the dispatcher says it is OK to hang up.
Reporting a crime:
Crimes often occur in clusters. If you report a crime or a suspicious situation, you might prevent the next one from taking place. An activity which you feel is unusual may be a sign of a criminal act. It is crucial that you contact the Department of Public Safety immediately whenever you see or hear something suspicious. DPS will respond to all reports of suspicious activity - whether or not you choose to identify yourself. Your call could prevent a crime against a friend, a neighbor, or yourself.
Signs of crime may include: A scream or call for help - A strange car repeatedly driving by - A broken window - A stranger noticed entering your neighbor's room or home or entering an office or lab with no apparent business to transact -A stranger loitering in a parking area or near your home, residence hall, or work area - A stranger in possession of two bicycles - Someone trying to jimmy a car window. Public Safety officers respond to all reports of crimes and emergencies and may complete an "Incident Report" for crimes occurring on or adjacent to college property. Crime (incident) reports can be made at any time.

G'day and welcome to another week in the Birds Department. This week we are going to have a look at our beautiful cassowaries.
Here at Australia Zoo we have five cassowaries: Rocky, Stomp, Bedara, Beepa and Babinda. They all live on the south-western side of the park and Beepa, Bedara and Babinda all have their own enclosure, while Rocky and Stomp share a double enclosure.
Cassowaries are a vital part of the Australian rainforest ecosystem. They consume large volumes of fruit and in doing this they distribute the fruit seeds in their faeces. This ensures the fruit trees are spread through out the rainforest area and all the animals benefit from this process.
Over the last couple of weeks we have been renovating the cassowary enclosures, making them nice and comfortable for these gorgeous birds. So next time you're in the Zoo, be sure to check out our flightless friends.
Until next week, cassowaries RULE!
Our Amazing Cassowarys

Judging from the hype-type in the press release, these should be some of Polk's most awesome speakers yet.
Debuting at this week's CEDIA Expo, the new LSiM speaker line is said to be a "tour-de-force," using the company's "most advanced engineering to date."
Ok, well, the new line includes everything—towers, bookshelf, surrounds and centers.
The majordomos in the line are the two tower speakers, the LSiM 707 and LSiM 705. Both feature newly-designed transducers equipped with a Polk technology called Dynamic Balance, which is designed for low distortion.
Polk's Dynamic Sonic Engine enclosure is a single-molded component housing both a 3.25-inch mid-range driver and a 1-inch isotropic ring radiator tweeter. Polk says the combined array offers a uniform dispersion pattern.
The model 707 adds a 6.5-inch woofer and two 6-by-9-inch subwoofers. The model 705 uses a 5.25-inch mid-range woofer and 5-by-7-inch built-in subwoofers. All the models of the LSiM line have Polk's Super Cell Aerated polypropylene cones. The driver baskets are manufactured from cast aluminum frames.
We'll give you our first impressions of the speakers this week from CEDIA.

Selectman informally queries residents on de-organizing Upton
Citing the continued purchase of property by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the difficulty in finding people to serve in leadership roles, Upton Selectman Bob Pepler has recently been informally surveying residents on whether the town should de-organize.
Upton has fewer than 100 year-round residents. It has been plagued in recent years with difficult political issues.
The buy-up of private properties to add to the Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge is one of them. Some residents worry that because such land can no longer be taxed by the town, other property owners' taxes will increase as the tax base shrinks.
"With the tax base eroding, I don't see the future being bright," Pepler said recently when he was contacted by the Citizen.
There have also been issues among town officials over such topics as a town revaluation, and procedures related to town office business and the calling of a town meeting. Two selectmen have resigned in recent months.
"A lot of good people don't want to run [for office]," said Pepler, who himself has only been in office a few months.
As a result of an illegal notification for a special town meeting called to elect a selectman, the person elected at that meeting is not serving on the three-person board.
Pepler said he has been asking residents what they think of the idea of the town becoming an unorganized territory. Municipal services would then be provided through Oxford County and the state.
Opinion in Upton, he said "is about 50/50" among people he has asked.
Pepler said he had also contacted the Maine Municipal Association and Oxford County about the idea.
"They said it's a difficult proposition," he said.
He compared the process to one currently happening in Andover, where a committee in that town is preparing a plan to possibly withdraw from SAD 44.
To disband the town, said Pepler, would require a town vote as well as approval from the state.
"MMA said there are a lot of hoops to jump through," he said.
There is also the question of whether the current financial situation makes it advisable to disband. Pepler said estimates from the county are that the Upton mil rate would rise from the current 6.3 mils to about 9.
Upton celebrated its sesquicentennial in 2010.

The animations are what's killing the game. Lets have some more realistic game play. The small size models is what killed it for me compared to BC2. You can have a enemy lying right beside you and not see him. They lowered the size to improve the graphics and killed the game play.
Never noticed it...LMAO Did you ever play BC2 then BF3 after. The enemy are like half the size and so are the vehicles. You need a sniper scope just to see some one. And yes I have a Alienware 23in 120hz monitor.
Or you could have just paid attention to the default viewing angle going from 65 to 85. Then you can just adjust BF3 down to 65 so everything is nice and giant so you can hit stuff.
Is this yours? If it is, a single GTX670 is going to struggle with surround gaming. Regardless, that is one damn awesome setup.....sa-weet! Mine's not so complex, but I'm heavy into EF surround gaming...
Half the side view that you didn't have in BF2, but have gotten used to in BF3... 65 degrees is 65 degrees. You went from 65 to 85, got used to it in spite of "things getting smaller" (more things on the same screen!), and now you can't live without the extra 10 degrees of vision on either side. If you'd reset it from 85 to the BF2-like 65 in the first place, you never would have noticed any difference. I guess the only solution is to get a bigger screen so that the smaller models in the 85 degree veiwing angle scale up to the 65-degree size without losing the 20 degrees!
Yea you guys can bs that all you want but its still not the same. The models were lowered, any blind man can tell the difference.
Perception is reality...so regardless of what really happened, and why/how, if you think they shrunk the models, then, in your own private universe, they did!
Are you saying that FOV doesn't zoom out the camera to show more game space? If that is what you are saying, then explain how there is magically more shown on the screen, the room has to come from somewhere and your monitor isn't getting any bigger.
If you read my previous posts on this topic, you'd see that I'm saying precisely the same thing as you.
You are right I play on a single 27" LG or my 55" Sony. I'm fine with what I have and I know I can't push 3 monitors with my current set up and not lose a lot of Eye Candy. Plus having one eye not sure I'd get any benefit any way.
True ! Blind in one eye and can't see out of the other It isn't that I can't see them though, it is I can't stay on target for shit. With the shotgun I do a lot better, but it don't work to good if you ain't in close quarters. Yeah I know I just suck Yes I am, how'd you guess
Oh I get it So I'm a little slow. Me and the son should be on this evening. I have a couple things to work towards to finally push me to COLONEL 10. He had a pretty good round this morning. 38,000 points http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/battlereport/show/1/60472631/330250904/.
