Apple iPhoto gets in your face
iLife has arrived. Again. And there are questions to be answered. Is this five-app pack of ease-of-use worth $79? Are the hyper-hyped new capabilities of its two marquee apps, iPhoto '09 and iMovie '09, all they've been cracked up to be? Is the new Learn to Play feature in GarageBand '09 useful for anyone other than a musical …
When I switched from PC to Mac there was nothing that I missed more than Google's Picasa. iPhoto paled in terns of ease of use and versatility, and was literally the first thing that I installed when I switched back to PC this year.
This year Google finally made Picasa available for Mac too. Well worth getting.
Sarky comments as usual
"These ongoing upgrades have given this latest version the distinct feel of an app that has accreted rather than matured. The look, feel, and function of new features are more mature - or, at least, different - than those of older features."
Wow, an app with legacy code in? Imagine that. Newsflash to Rik: only the Web 2.0 crowd throw everything out with each iteration.
No big surprise that you need Intel hardware to run some features - Apple is a hardware company last time I looked.
Seems like you can't just do a straight review without inserting stupid comments.
one bad thing about iPhoto '09. It takes your entire collection of photos, which you used to be able to find in the file system, and hides them all inside a single file called 'iPhoto Library'. You have now lost the ability to work with the files individually.
re: bad
In iLife 08 there appears to be an "action" (or something) associated with the library folder in finder which runs iphoto whenever you click on the folder in finder. You may just need to look at changing this. From the commandline you can change directory into the iphoto library folder and see the files. It might be the same in 09. Or not!
I don't have a mac in front of me (or even own one) but I did have a play with one recently. It might be worth investigating...
Barry Rueger messed up.
Umm wakey wakey Barry.
If you were that anal about Picassa then why didn't you just run Parallels and Windows on your Mac and run it there?
Switched back to PC? lol
Some people.
more lock-in
Parts of these programs only work on Intel chipsets, they starting the push to force older Mac users to spend on newer machines. Spent a few hours playing with faces and i'm already bored with that. Nothing worth the upgrade money.
Rubber Doorstop.
I have several of those and are they useful?
Well that depends too.
UK translation required...
Tell me, is el Reg still a UK-based site? Is that .co.uk an illusion? Have you been secretly taken over by people from over the pond?
Or is there some less sinister reason for running a product review which mentions US pricing in those "dollar" things rather than the "pound" things Apple accept here? Whether the software is "worth $79" is not a relevant question to most UK readers, who will have to consider if it's worth £69.
Deducting VAT at 15% (important to do that, as US prices exclude sales taxes, and we need to make a fair comparison) takes it to £60, which at the current exchange rate seems to be about £86. Though this is subject to fluctuation. And once Apple realise they're not overcharging us by their usual margin, it'll probably go up....
Re: Sarky comments as usual
Couldn't help bridling at this one.
Wot DaPho, the point the reviewer was making was that the UI itself seems inconsistent in the app - some of the UI looks rather dated, whilst the newer features use more modern lines.
You must have given up hope by this point, as the next line makes it a bit more obvious
"For example, Faces and Places, the stars of iPhoto '09 (more on them in a minute), have a distinctly more modern look-and-feel than do older features such as keyword tagging."
Yes, because if you particularly want Windows apps, buying an overpriced Mac and then paying extra for Parallels and a Win license is just *such* a sensible way to go about it.
It's just possible that Mr Rueger hasn't got more money than sense, you know.
Pay waaaay over the odds for your Wintel machine just to have it in a shiny box? lol
Some people.
Sorry Rik,
You seem to have confused a few virtues of the iLife suite with sins:
iWeb- "iWeb is serviceable if you're terrified by a href"- I don't want to have to learn that HTML shit- it's hard and a waste of my time. I want to create a webpage showing off my holiday pics, so I don't have to mail 30mb zips to all my family. iWeb is good enough.
iDVD- "iDVD is about as complex as that aforementioned rubber doorstop."- Good. I want to master a DVD and give it a slick menu. Should I learn whatever language DVD menus are written in so I can individually antialias each full stop on the photo gallery captions and movie clips I took on holiday? Nope, iDVD is good enough.
iPhoto-"an increasingly competent photo organizer, but no substitute for true photo-editing software." Awww, shit? It's not as fully featured as photoshop? I can't alpha-blend my layers nor magic lasso a voxel? 'Cos that's what my million holiday pics require, y'know, not just a brief crop, a one-click enhance and a little bit of airbrushing to cover up a spot on that otherwise lovely picture of the missus and me on the beach. iPhoto is good enough.
I think that World+Dog is pretty clear that iLife is an introductory product, with intro level features. Pointing out that iMovie (which lets your average user do things that they'd need serious software, hardware and plenty o'learning to do on a Windows machine) is no Final Cut Pro is akin to pointing out to people that iTunes doesn't balance your chequebook, cure cancer* and eradicate world hunger. Did anyone seriously expect it to? If they did, I'd suggest the problem is with them rather than the product.
A side by side of Picasa and iPhoto, pointing out the relative strengths of (possibly) the most popular free and paid for photo management package may have been a better way forward, IMO.
@stewart midwinter
iLife 08 buried everything in a folder too since before that it was commonplace on Mac 'help' boards to find someone had gone in and played around with the photo structure and mucked up their iPhoto library entirely. When Apple put in the media browser to allow people to select photos more easily to attach to emails etc, then the file structure wasn't needed quite so much.
People who know what they're doing and do still want to see it can right click on the iPhoto Library icon, choose 'Show Package Contents' and get taken straight into the file structure - no messing in the Terminal required.
The iPhoto library file...
...is a 'package'. To open it, secondary-click it (ctrl-click, right-click, two-finger-tap, whatever) and choose Show Package Contents. You can also see an individual photo's file by secondary-clicking it and choosing Show File within iPhoto.
This is for iPhoto '08 anyway, I haven't played with '09 yet.
not so bad
The change to a single file (actually a package) happened with iPhoto '08. Just right-click and Show Package Contents to see the files. You can also create aliases to those files or folders within the package.
Switching back to Windows happens a lot. Mac's really are no better, TCO is way higher and there are no upgrade paths other than buying a complete unit.
The OS has some nice features but in other areas is years behind (like no USB hotswap), when the hardware fails (and it does) is very expensive to repair.
I won't be buying another Mac, have no reason to say with Apple.
@Mick F:
> Parts of these programs only work on Intel chipsets,
Er no... just ONE part of ONE program. The Garageband "Learn to Play" feature is only for Intel-based Macs. Everything else works fine on PowerPC.
Try reading the system requirements before posting such drivel.
@Stuart Midwinter
>one bad thing about iPhoto '09. It takes your entire collection of photos, which you used to be able to find in the file system, and hides them all inside a single file called 'iPhoto Library'.
Er, it did this in iPhoto '08 too, and is VERY easily resolved. Just right-click on the iPhoto Library file and choose "Show Package Contents". BOOM! All you photos as before. so no lost ability.
Re: Bad
To look at the files and directories inside the iPhoto library, right-click on it and select "show package contents". Job done.
I have to say, I've had a quite a bit of fun with iPhoto '09 and Faces seems very useful. They could do with some work on the workflow/usability though. There are a few omissions and usability mistakes.
1. Impossible to get a list of all pictures that iPhoto thinks has a face, but which you haven't identified yet... I'd like to easily go through and clean these up, but there isn't a way to find them.
2. Button labels /workflow. If you double-click on a Face, to show all the picture containing that face, you are presented with 'confirmed' pictures and 'the person might also be in...' pictures.
There is a 'Confirm name' button at the bottom.
I immediately tried to select the pictures to be confirmed and click the confirm button, but it doesn't work that way. You have to click the button first, which switches you to 'confirm mode'. This lets you confirm/reject names.
Re: UK translation required...
Many of our articles come from the US office, in the US. Don't make me ODFO your ass/arse.
Upgrade? I don't think so!
Sadly, Apple don't offer an 'upgrade' path or price. iLife is a purchasable package which comes 'free' with new Macs but if you want to 'upgrade' from '08 you have to pay the full price for '09. It's a bit like their naughty Quicktime Pro ... every time they introduce a ne version, it breaks your old one and you have to shell out more pounds for what is a very minor 'upgrade' for Pro.
Still, they have to maintain that 24 billion cash dollars amount in the banks!
is pretty cool, free and available on a Mac. Judging buy the review I don't think its on par with this version of iPhoto. But still for free... can't complain.
iPhoto integrates pretty well with Picasa web albums too.
Download the Picasa upload thingamajig from Google
Select your pics in iPhoto
File -->Export
Select Picasa
Bobs your uncle, your pics are now on Picasa.
Even works with iPhoto 6 which is getting on a bit.
Re: bad
As iPhoto has the habit of creating *X* versions of your pics whenever you manipulate them, you could just as well drag a copy to the Finder when you want to work on something individually. That will also assure that you are getting the picture you were actually looking at in the first place. What you can also do is simply drag the picture from iPhoto to another application, say to GraphicConverter and dabble away. If you do not specify a new directory, the changes will be reflected in iPhoto after restarting it, though likely only at full-size due to the multiple-variant method until there is a database refresh. Not as elegant as it could be in any way. Nevertheless, it's far from not being able to work with files individually. In my view, the main point of database viewers like iPhoto (and also iTunes) is to spare you the agonizing manual crawl through the thickets of directories to find "that file" in the first place. On the other hand, I would greatly prefer if there *was* a halfway logical directory structure in place somewhere (as with iTunes) as that would be much easier to recover just in case.
@Sarah Bee - ODFO?
Google tells me nothing....please define....
Re: @Sarah Bee - ODFO?
I refer you to the 'Playmobil founder dies' comments.
RE: higher TCO AC
Here come the clowns... what's next, "there's no software for Mac"?
@ Stewart Midwinter: *facepalm* ... and of course you can just "show package contents" as the guys are pointing out. I hope I got my point across that I see little need to do that in the first place.
@Sarah Bee
Having looked at the Playmobil article, I'd have to say the ODFO should be directed at the editorial policy of not being arsed to translate articles from your US office. It wouldn't be all that difficult to insert UK prices in brackets, would it?
There are several ways to directly access your photos in the library.
As mentioned before, ctrl/right clicking the iPhoto Library in finder will give you the option to "Show Package Contents", now you can access the originals and edited folders to your hearts content. A word of warning though, don't start renaming or moving or your screw things up (this is why Apple hid the folder structure in the library, at users request if I recall) just as it would in any other "pro" app like Aperture or Lightroom.
You can right click on an image in iPhoto and choose "Show File" - a finder window will now open showing that image's location.
Or, select a photo and choose File>Export from the menu bar. In the resulting dialogue change the "Kind" drop-down to "Original". This will export a copy of the original to a location specified by you, which you can then edit in Photshop/GIMP/etc to your hearts content, without the danger of borking your library.
Re: @Sarah Bee
Tsk, that's not how you ODFO.
The office here says it's meaningless to do conversions because of the mental exchange rate, differing sales taxes, etc. So there y'go.
uh oh
Been using iPhoto 7/08 for a while now, I don't really hoard and watch over my files as much as I used to when I managed them in a strict directory structure in Windows - I was dead against anything messing with files, in fear I would get locked in or something.
When I got my mac I wasn't going to use iLife really, but I decided to play with iPhoto a bit, and let it manage a copy of all my photos for a bit, liked it and decided to use it as the main storage app for my photos, mostly because I thought I could always export the entire library to a file structure at any point I decided to move to something else and end up back at square one, my photos in a file structure similar to the events... am I wrong?
I also thought the combination of iphoto and time machine would make sure that even if iphoto died or corrupted the package or whatever, my photos would be preserved in some form or other on my external backup... am I wrong again?
I'm actually asking here... not being sarcastic...
@Sarah Bee - ODFO
Conversions? Who mentioned conversions?
What the office here has to do is look up the actual UK retail price. No maths required, and no dependency on fluctuating exchange rates, which would indeed be pointless. Especially as UK prices bear little relation to US ones in many cases.
re Uh oh
iPhoto just honks your photos into a package file. Within the package are the originals and the subsequently modified ones. You can point iPhoto at a restored iphoto library and you'll get what you need.
If you decide that you just want your old pix back, you can just do a file export from iphoto using the menu commands.
@Wot DaPho
Generally most things have legacy code in them, the trick is keeping the interface in one place so that when you do need to add to it, you're using the same controls/theme as everything else, and hiding what's legacy and what's not from the user. This is just sloppy :)
I found picasso a total arse to work with on the PC. Mind you i gave up with it pretty quick, it didnt work how i wanted. dont know what its like now.
Never had an issue with iPhoto. It pretty much works how I want, I have more issues with getting iTunes to order things the way I want trhen I ever do with iPhoto.
Never really had an issue with Apples pricing, yes it is kinda odd, but no odder then anybody elses, its all designed to prise money from my fingers.
I might upgrade.
@Ascylto: Upgrade???
Ascylto, think a little bit about what you said. Thought about it? .... There you go.
So, if (as you say) every Mac comes with iLife, then people will only _ever_ be upgrading to a newer version of iLife. Therfore the £69 _is_ the upgrade price. There is no standalone price.
Obviously this does not include Hackintosh, or other dubious means of having OS X.
Paris, 'cos she speaks before thinking too.
re: Playmobil ODFO
My vote for comment of the year, so far.
Directory Structure
Why on earth would anyone want to access the directory structure of iPhoto? This is 2009, it's all about meta-data baby.
Old skool directory based filing is sooo last Century. When (if) MS finally put out WinFS, and Apple replcaes HFS with ZFS (Snow Leopard, maybe), then we'll have proper query based filing systems.
Having to know where you've previously stored -- in a single place -- a file in order to find it, rather than being able to slice and dice it multiple ways (e.g. faces, events, place, date, etc.) is anachronystic. Plus, in the case of iPhoto, it means the app can store the original file, and subsequent changes to it; all the while hiding this from the user (so as not to alter the wrong file by accident).
As others have stated, if you really want to access the photo file in iPhoto, there are plenty of ways of accessing the actual file. And, if you tell iPhoto what your external editor is (Photoshop in my case), you can even right-click the photo and ask to edit it in the external editor. No need to do any copy to dekstop and re-import round trips. It all just works.
Now, if only iWork/Office/whatever could work in the same way, I'd be happy!
@ Eh?
Spot on!
I've often wondered what the point of 'Rik's reviews' is. Now I've realised it's to drive up hits on the comments pages (in order to charge more for advertising).
Rik, before you start making sarky comments about what software 'can't do, just pause a moment and think about what it is designed to do, and the market it is aimed at. Then write your review.
On the Face-recognition feature, there is an interesing user comment over at macintouch. The user reports that iphoto correctly identified faces on photos on the fridge door that featured in a photo.
You can tell iPhoto '08 to not copy photos into your iPhoto library if you're importing them from HD, in the program's preferences.
So you can arrange all your photos however you want (probably grouped in folders), import them into iPhoto without eating up more HD space with another copy of the photo (except for changes to photos and thumbnails which it does generate inside the iPhoto Library package), and work with those same photos in other applications.
This is in addition to going to the file inside the iPhoto Library package as other posts have mentioned.
@Les and @Sarah Bee
Rather than ODFOing, I've just thrown together a little greasemonkey script, that will replace any Dollar values it finds in the body of a register page with the appropriate GBP equivalent, it also deducts the 15% VAT from the final GBP figure.
So in my browser, your comment Les now reads:
"Whether the software is "worth £46.38" is not a relevant question to most UK readers, who will have to consider if it's worth £69."
I suppose you could use it on other sites too if you change the settings.
No USB Hotswap?
WTF are you talking abut?
You can swap mice and keyboards while OSX is running with no problem - try doing that to a Windows box.
Apple seem to do two ranges - introductory and full blown expert - with little ground in between.
iLife is introductory - if you like it then start saving up for the real stuff. If you want pretend software that makes you feel like an expert when you aren't - go back to WIndows.

I'm visiting my parents in VA this weekend. Which allowed NiceGirl (from PR) and I to finally have our blind 'girl date' yesterday. We met at the Fall's Church G Street Fabric just outside of Washington DC. Now, I need more fabric like I need a hole in my head.
But, here's my loot from the $2.97 table. A black and white pinstripe cotton, a dusty rose knit, a dark brown knit and a dusty rose striped shirting with a touch of stretch. I also got some zippers and patterns.
It was nice to talk sewing and dating and not have my companion get that glazed look. We'll be getting together soon to make paper tape dressforms.
My first Kwik Sew! Two weeks ago I watched my best friend buy a RTW version of this pattern for $238. I did pull myself away from an orange knit and pretty apple green jersey at G Street. See, I have boundries.
Let's just call it Divine Inspiration. I've put these two together because sitting in church yesterday it occured to me that the Hot Patterns Cosmopolitan (are you sick of me talking about that dress yet?) would be very pretty in two colors. Especially now that Christina has sent me a Threads article on how to bind with knits. I'm thinking bodice and skirt in brown, rose for a neckline binding, waist and ties.

HARRISBURG, Pa. A suburban Philadelphia court clerk says he'll abide by a judge's order that he stop issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
Montgomery County Register of Wills Bruce Hanes said Thursday he was disappointed in the order by Commonwealth Court Judge Dan Pellegrini and is considering whether to appeal.
Hanes says he thinks he's "on the right side of history" and hopes his actions have helped the cause of marriage equality.
Pellegrini says it's up to courts to decide whether laws are constitutional, not local government officials.
Hanes began issuing licenses to same-sex couples in July, after the U.S. Supreme Court threw out portions of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Pennsylvania is the only northeastern state that doesn't allow either same-sex marriage or civil unions.

A new reality show wants "gay-looking" straight people
For a production company that specializes mostly in wedding videos, I'm not expecting a real nuanced look at the intersection of gender presentation and sexuality that would be the most potentially interesting aspect of a new reality television project looking for gender-bending straight folks. It's called Straight as a Board. Here's what the casting call says:
Just because you're a man who likes pedicures, or a female gym teacher, that doesn't mean you're gay, does it? If you're sick of your friends constantly trying to set you up with members of the same sex then it's time to set the record straight. A new reality series is casting people that are ready to put all the rumors to rest. Just because you're a guy and like show tunes or a girl and play softball that your (sic) not hiding your sexual preferences in the closet.
The only applicant on RealityWanted.com – Andrea
Although LGBT folks struggle against stereotypes every day, there are some that we occasionally, or often, embrace. We reinforce many of them when we claim to have such abilities as "gaydar." I would even venture to say that our gaydar is right most of the time, so, clearly, outward gender markers do play a role in our sexual orientation. The more interesting questions are whether those outward gender markers are a reflection of what is inside us or a reflection of culture and fashion outside of our innate selves.
For example, the image of the metrosexual new man has been throwing off our gaydar for about a decade now and woman, even straight ones, have been allowed to wear pants for about the last half century. Americans trying to determine European male sexuality? Well, frankly, we're usually pretty befuddled.
Plenty of straight, heteroflexible, or anywhere-along-the-spectrum people can embrace gender ambiguous fashion, for comfort, style or a number of other reasons, but whether they will is largely determined by what is culturally acceptable. Because one garment seldom is inherently feminine or masculine across time and culture (skirt vs. kilt for example) what makes fashion gendered is our way of looking at it.
So when straight people are breaking current societal gender molds it could be for several reasons. The clothes or mannerisms could just feel natural to them physically, or they could like the way that aesthetic looks. They could also, consciously or unconsciously, be combating traditional gendered stereotypes. Does the desire to battle stereotypes imply a kind of queerness in itself? Or is it queerer to inherently desire to adopt the style and mannerisms of what is traditionally considered the "opposite" gender?
I once lived with the gayest straight man you have ever seen. He was a very well-kempt storyteller and even appeared in a rainbow clown costume in a gay pride parade. He lived in a very accepting household in a very gay-friendly city so it is harder to simply say that he was repressed. But was he confused?
I still find it hard to believe that he is as entirely straight as he claims but is that my own internalized homophobia and stereotyping? Because I have a hard time believing than anyone is entirely gay or straight this may be a moot point, but then again, I tend to want to push boundaries no matter who I date and what I wear.

In July, Anderson told ManUtd.com he was determined to put an injury-strewn couple of seasons behind him and now, with Scholes, Carrick and Ryan Giggs left in Manchester for tonight's match in Romania against CFR Cluj, the Brazilian will be hoping for a chance to shine in Sir Alex's midfield.
"This season is very important," he said. "I need to prove what I can do. I know the boss and my team-mates believe in me, I've just had bad luck. Hopefully I can get a run of playing, enjoy my football and help the team [win trophies]."
More: Sir Alex wary of Cluj | Anderson stars vs Newcastle | Match preview
"Anderson is a difficult one to leave out but I don't think there's been anything wrong with the form of Paul Scholes or Michael Carrick, which makes it difficult to involve other players when there's a desire to play with two wide players. He's done nothing wrong."
- Sir Alex Ferguson

Xavier Doles Out Punishment For The Crosstown Shootout Brawl To… Its Student Section?Posted by nvr1983 on January 5th, 2012
Like most college basketball fans we recoiled at the scenes from this year's Crosstown Shootout where what should have been an easy Xavier win over Cincinnati quickly turned into one of the uglier on-court incidents in college basketball history. As we noted in a post the following day, while the incident was unfortunate it was blown out of proportion to a degree by a media and fan base that wants rivalries to be all-consuming, but acts shocked when that passion boils over and we get an ugly incident like what happened four weeks ago. In the aftermath, there was quite a bit of criticism by various observers directed at both sides with the attention focused primarily on Cincinnati for its on-court actions and Xavier for its off-court actions. Suspensions for the involved players ranged from one to six games with Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin saying that his players would not return even after their suspensions were complete unless he felt that they had proven to him that they understood what they had done was wrong. While some media members and fans questioned the relatively short suspensions, eventually most commended both programs for taking some responsibility for what happened.
One group that was largely left out of the conversation were the fans at the game in particular the student sections that have been known to get a little rowdy at times (a quality that is not unique to these schools). As a society, we tend to laugh off the majority of the comments and actions of members of the student section as humorous or merely immature. The only times where we take aim at student sections are when they pose a physical threat to the opposition or cross some line defined by societal mores such as racist or homophobic taunts. Typically these actions are met with either a verbal reprimand or a glare of disapproval from authority figures. The administration at Xavier apparently feels differently as they sent out a letter today stating that due to the actions of the student section during the Cincinnati game that included "unacceptable chanting, verbal expletives, and objects being thrown onto the arena floor" those who were seated in that area would not be allowed to receive any more tickets to men's basketball games this season unless they attended one of three one-hour long "reflection sessions" being offered on-campus between 7 and 8 PM on January 8, 9, and 10.


text: Two Alaska GOP Senate Candidates Refuse to Sign Anti-Amnesty Pledge Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 11 Aug 2014 post a comment Two Republican Senate candidates in Alaska refused to sign an anti-amnesty pledge during a Sunday debate. Conservative candidate Joe Miller asked his two opponents to sign a pledge that reads, "I will oppose any attempt by Congress or the President to grant amnesty (any pathway to citizenship) for illegal aliens." Former Alaska Attorney General Dan Sullivan, who is supported by Karl Rove and other pro-amnesty Republicans, and Lt. Gov Mead Treadwell, who has said he supported a pathway to citizenship, refused to sign it. According to the Associated Press, Treadwell has criticized Miller for linking illegal immigrants to increased gang activity. Ahead of the August 19 primary, Miller is reportedly "emphasizing immigration as he tries to break out of what most observers believe is third place in the heated primary fight." For instance, "he has been highlighting his support from Maricopa County, Arizona, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, a well-known immigration hardliner." Miller won the GOP Senate nomination in 2010 over establishment Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), but Murkowski decided to run as a write-in candidate in the general to defeat Miller. The winner of this year's primary will battle vulnerable Democrat incumbent Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK).

THIBODAUX, La. (AP) - The Lafourche Parish school system will revamp how it pays teachers, raising the base pay and changing how it doles out raises.
The system is making the changes because of new state laws that require schools to pay teachers based on performance, not experience alone.
Under the current system, teachers make a starting base pay. For a teacher with a bachelor's degree, that base pay is $37,975 during the first year.
For every year of experience a teacher gets, the salary grows.
The school board has voted to increase the base salary to $40,000 for the next school year. Finance Manager Don Gaudet (GOH-day) says that means most teachers in the parish will get some salary bump.

The seas have been the frontier of some of humanity's greatest travels and the source of some of its most delicious food. Savor Restaurant's chefs celebrate the sea's diversity of flavors with a robust menu of oceanic treats. At their raw bar, they prepare fresh shellfish such as oysters or clams on the half shell for consumption in their naturally briny juices. They augment the flavor of other seameats, searing Atlantic salmon in sherry wine sauce or baking tender cod with fresh herbs and roasted potatoes. Savor's culinary crew also a crafts a number of authentic pasta dishes, including wild mushroom ravioli and seafarer-friendly zuppa di pesce, served with clams, mussels, shrimp, scallops, and eye patch.
According to legend, Elias Atrum—a recluse dubbed "Old Eli" by area townsfolk—first farmed the grounds in the 1800s. When locals began disappearing, the authorities' investigation pointed toward Eli's farm, where they stumbled upon unspeakably gruesome sights. Now, every October, the farm fills with the sound of screams and Eli's maniacal laughter.
Creepy Hollow's Atrum Farm tells the gruesome story surrounding the locale, tracing Eli's grim descent and the carnage that he left in his wake. New this year, Paranoia—a second trail—lures intrepid guests through more of the haunted grounds, highlighting the sinister presence that lingered long after the mad farmer disappeared. This trail maintains a petrifying mood made all the more unsettling by strobe lights, fog machines, and loud noises. For easily frightened guests, Creepy Hollow includes a relaxing moonlight hayride through some of the 1,000 acres of farmland and a 5-acre, family-friendly corn maze. The staff also keeps teeth from chattering with concessions such as hot dogs, hot cider, and hot chocolate.
Since 1967, the Mandreucci Family has lured in diners with the scent of bubbly margherita pizzas, sopressata sandwiches on semolina bread, and chicken, sausage, and shrimp mingling with rich sauces on plates of pasta. Tan brick and colorful murals of wholesome Italian ingredients surround families and couples as they twirl linguini around their fork tines or munch on slices of vodka-penne pizza, a specialty pizza topped with vodka sauce and diced ham. During catered events, guests can avoid eye contact with an old lab partner by preoccupying themselves with fresh fruits, antipasti, penne pomodoro, lasagna, and veal.

Alyakina, a journalist with dual Russian-German citizenship who was working for the German weekly magazine Focus and the radio news service RUFA, was killed by a Russian soldier. Russian army officials had given her permission to cross an army checkpoint leading into the southern city of Budyonnovsk, where she was going to report on a mass hostage taking by Chechen rebels, but she was shot shortly after passing through the roadblock.

Myrlie Evers to receive Presidential Award and Medallion
Award honors civil rights leader's commitment to diversity, equality
URBANA, Ill. — Myrlie Evers, a civil rights leader who spent three decades seeking justice for her husband's assassin and a lifetime promoting racial equality, will receive the University of Illinois Presidential Award and Medallion during a ceremony Wednesday on the Urbana campus.
Evers, the widow of slain civil rights activist Medgar Evers and the first woman to chair the NAACP, joins 17 other medallion winners since the award program was created in 1984 to recognize individuals whose lives have had a profound impact on the University.
President Robert Easter said Evers has helped lift society and open doors of opportunity during more than a half-century as one of the nation's leading voices for diversity, fairness and social justice.
"Dr. Evers' vision, courage and perseverance are an inspiration for us all," Easter said. "Even in the face of unspeakable tragedy, her ideals and belief in what is best for society never wavered. At the U of I, we share her commitment and thank her for her tireless service."
Evers has been involved in the civil rights movement since the 1950s, working alongside her husband when he became the Mississippi field secretary for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. After he was assassinated 1963 and his accused killer was freed in two mistrials she kept case alive for more than 30 years, leading to a conviction in 1994.
She also continued her active role in the NAACP, and served as the first woman to chair the organization from 1995 to 1998. After leaving the post, she established the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Institute in Jackson, Miss., an independent educational center dedicated to their lives.
In 2012, she joined the faculty of her late husband's alma mater, Alcorn State University, and is currently finalizing programs to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his death. Last month, she delivered the invocation at President Obama's second inauguration, an honor she received in recognition of her lifetime advocacy for civil rights.
Evers will receive the Presidential Award and Medallion during a ceremony at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Foellinger Hall in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, 500 S. Goodwin Ave., Urbana, where she will deliver the keynote address for the campus's commemoration of the sesquicentennial of the Emancipation Proclamation.
The University of Illinois is a world leader in research and discovery, the largest educational institution in the state with more than 77,000 students, 24,000 faculty and staff, and campuses in Urbana-Champaign, Chicago and Springfield. The U of I awards more than 20,000 undergraduate, graduate and professional degrees annually.

Relaxing, secluded getaway
We stayed at this cottage last summer for a week, and had an amazing time. It was me, my husband, our 3 year old daughter, and my dog. There was lots to explore near the cottage. The owner was very nice and helpful. We enjoyed talking with him. Each afternoon we would head in to Ludington and do even more exploring. We loved every minute of this vacation. The cottage was nice and updated and we had plenty of space when the in-laws came and stayed with us for an evening! If you are looking for a relaxing way to spend your vacation, THIS IS IT!! The washer/dryer was a huge perk. And there is a ping pong table upstairs that we had a blast with!

Apple gets fans juices flowing with iMac-like laptop dock
The latest Apple patent filing to excite the Mac masses shows the manufacturer's iMac recast as a docking station for a MacBook laptop. Apple's been here before, of course, with its Duo range of PowerBooks, launched in 1992. Unlike standard PowerBooks, the Duos were designed to dock into a Mac-like desktop unit that improved the …
You really can patent f***ing anything these days.
I call prior art. as I used to have my docking station vertically behing my monitor. All I needed to do was put a little box around the whole lot and hey presto......
Pay up you bastards!
Don't they already have a patent for this?
If they did this back in '92 shouldn't they already have a patent for this? It doesn't seem like they're doing anything significantly new or different.
I remember back in the day we had a Duo system at school, but I think the teacher bought it for herself and just pretended it was bought in the pursuit of edumacation...
Claim 5. "A docking station as recited in claim 1, wherein the docking area is configured such that a plane parallel to at least one largest face of an imaginary rectangular polyhedron of the least possible volume that can contain the portable computer docked in the housing is more parallel than normal to the direction of gravity."
Once you've finished guffawing at the patentese, it looks like what they're claiming novelty for is the fact that it holds the laptop vertically behind the screen, rather than horizontally. Not that I'm saying this should necessarily be patentable, of course.
So....this is basically an iMac without the Mac part, and just a enlarged monitor with a connector an port...all well and good. And they are going to close, and insert a full scale Macbook into it, with very little ventilation? As in...the things which tend to get rather warm and have rather "fun and innovative" flamability?
So, due to what these things tend to run like, am sure what Apples patented here is the spinkler system along the top of the panel which its surely going to need :P
US patent system is broken.
USPTO staff obviously have their brains sucked out as a pre-condition of employment. It's the only excuse I can find for some of the bullshit they're allowing through as patentable these days.
That or they're only hiring people with liberal arts degrees who have never used a computer, and then not allowing them to interact with anyone who actually knows something about computers.
There are new claims they want to protect
Anyone who's actually written patents knows that patents are incremental, and any sort of new work needs to be patented if it's going to be afforded the protection of the patent system. An integrated display and a low-footprint vertical dock are both new, and the integrated display itself makes it a much more different beast than current and former docking solutions. Also, remember that many patents cover things which are obvious-in-retrospect, but can anyone complaining about the patentability of this innovation honestly say they came up with this idea first?
Also, the DuoDock did more than just improve the video and audio; it also had slots for its own RAM and FPU, to actually vastly improve the capabilities of laptops (back when RAM densities were so low and FPUs were so large that they actually made a noticeable impact on the size of the notebook).
Not true
"USPTO staff obviously have their brains sucked out as a pre-condition of employment. It's the only excuse I can find for some of the bullshit they're allowing through as patentable these days."
They just make money on the application, then granting of the patents.
See less granting means less people applying. That equals less money
Is it scratch proof?
The most innovative thing here would be, how you would get to slide it in and out day after day without battering the hell out of the MacBook casing.
Anyway it is surely the most obvious, space saving and minimalistic way to dock a laptop to a screen and keyboard.
Now I have just thought that there should just be enough room to put 1 or 2 laptop HDD(s) into the docking unit as well. Hence providing a backup or additional storage solution to boot.
Now you heard it here first so if Apple use that idea, then I WANT MY FREAKING MONEY!
Apple at it again
I thought patents are supposed to protect innovation and new ideas? This is as dubious as Apples patent application for an 'extra wide' mousepad for their laptops. So now patents are for 'take an existing idea, tweak it slightly and it becomes a whole new patentable product'? The whole system needs rebuilding from scratch
Maybe an Aple Hoax
Is this not Apple trying to put people of the cent, for what they will actualy release next week. Why else would the pantent be released for public show, so close to launch??

The foundations for human morals and ethics are found in the book of Genesis. The issue of capital punishment was given Genesis 9:6, God's Covenant with Noah upon leaving the ark and entering the new world after the Flood: "Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made man." In the former world, from the Creation to the Flood, permission had not been given to take the life of the murderer. Instead, the murderer was to be exiled as in the example of Cain who murdered his brother, Abel (Genesis 4:8-16).
Why do we need physicians and medicine? If God created the world and everything in it perfect, where did disease, sickness and death come from? How can disease and death be part of God's plan for the creation?
God did not fashion a creation in which disease and death took place. Our ailments are our own doing. We added them to God's creation. When man withdrew his love from God by disobeying Him, man changed the nature of God's creation.
Creation is the doctrine which undergirds all other doctrines. It tells us about God, and what the word "God" means, at least in part. We know nothing about God if we know nothing about creation. If we know about creation, and believe, we can understand our basic relationship to God, who He is and what claim He has on our lives and how we live them. It is this understanding that gives us a sense of natural order in our lives, gives us the knowledge of a greater purpose in our lives and gives us meaning or value to our very being.

Made this for patients and used Splenda instead of sugar. Tasted very good fresh, good texture, but after a day of covered refrigeration the texture got more dry and crumbly, made me want to drink somethign after I ate it. Patients really liked it though, good alternative to banana bread. And yes the dough is very thick.

Would frozen raspberries be an ok substitute for strawberries in this recipe? Dietitian comment: I believe you could make that substitution but you might want to thaw the berries first.

I have made this a few times and everyone loves it. I didn't have enough strawberries the last time and used a small can of pineapple in it's own juice well drained and it was really good. I do have a question, has anyone tried the non Phosphorus Baking powder recipe (in sauces recipes) in this one?

Has anyone tried this with Spenda? DH is diabetic and if he had that many carbs his sugar would be 400. I have 10 pounds of berries right now so I'm going to try this.

I had several clients to try this recipe and they say it is wonderful, but they liked it the best 1-2 days after it was baked. Stated it had more flavor and was more moist.

This recipe calls for using two 9"x11" loaf pans. Isn't this an error? I've been cooking for many years and never saw such a loaf pan. Thanks for catching this Helen. Indeed the correct loaf pan size should be 9" x 5". We will make the correction.

At the turn of the 20th century, when commercial flowers became
available to the general public, the interest in flower arranging
grew. With the garden club movement in America gaining momentum in
the 1930's the use of floral designs in the home and public
buildings brought about an interest in including designs in flower
shows. From this interest, the National Garden Clubs (then known as
the National Council of State Garden Clubs) developed three
distinct types of design within the American Traditional Design
Style. They are Line, Line-Mass, and Mass Design. They are
considered American adaptations of the Oriental line design and the
European Mass Design.
NGC Traditional Design Style elements continue to be the
foundation of all present day American garden club floral
NGC Creative Floral Design was first introduced in the late
1950's as flower shows flourished throughout the United States and
as the garden club members' talents expanded. Many members were
studying art and applying their knowledge of international art
history and its creative movements to floral designing. Primary
among those influences were: Impressionism, the effect of light on
objects; Fauvism, simplified design in strong color; Art Nouveau, a
highly decorative style with dedication to natural forms; Art Deco,
an elegant style of decorative art characterized by angular
symmetrical geometric forms; Cubism, geometrical forms and
fragmentations; Surrealism, the psychological aspect in art; and
Abstractionism, with emphasis of the non-realistic and
Abstract Creative Designs share the same tangible
characteristics as all other Creative Designs, but go a step
further. They are designs with a dominance of
abstraction. Abstraction in floral design is the act of separating
the inherent physical qualities of plant material and other
components from the associated or naturalistic concept of them. All
Abstract Creative Designs are creative, but not all Creative
Designs are Abstract.

OKLAHOMA CITY — An Oklahoma City man thought someone was breaking into his house, only to find the intruder had four legs and horns.
"I heard some rumbling, and I freaked out. I thought that somebody was trying to break into the house, and then I came out here and checked it. Then I see it coming towards me, so I run back inside," said Edgar Cardoza.
Cardoza refused to come out of his house and that's when the goat turned his attention to police, going after them and trying to get inside their police cars.

Scope of the ProblemIn colorectal cancer (CRC), Kristen rat sarcoma (KRAS) has been the most notable biomarker advance in terms of predictive value for treatment with epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFRIs). Retrospective analysis across several randomized clinical trials, suggest that EGFRIs are not effective in treating metastatic CRC (mCRC) patients with KRAS mutant tumors (Amado et al, 2008). The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) identifies KRAS as a predictive biomarker and has incorporated recommendations for the determination of the KRAS gene status of either the primary tumor or a site of metastasis for a patient with mCRC at diagnosis. KRAS mutations occur early in the formation of CRC and there is strong concordance between mutation status of the primary and metastatic tumor (NCCN, 2011). Baas and colleagues (2011) conducted a literature search of studies that tested concordance of mutational status between primary tumors and metastases in CRC patients, particularly focusing on KRAS BRAF, PIK3CA and loss of PTEN in order to make recommendations for mutational testing in standard clinical practice. Study Findings
The authors (Baas et al, 2011) concluded that discordance of KRAS status can occur albeit infrequently. They also noted that testing the primary tumor or any tumor tissue available is adequate for clinical decision making regarding use of EGFRIs.ManageCRC.com CommentaryIn 2008, the advent of data supporting the KRAS mutational status as influential to mCRC patients' response to EGFRI therapy was practice-changing. More remarkable was that the standard of care in treating these patients changed based on retrospective data leading to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Provisional Clinical Opinion (PCO) recommendation that KRAS testing be performed for all patients with mCRC who are candidates for EGFRI therapy (Allegra, 2009). Both ASCO and NCCN guidelines recommend that cetuximab or panitumumab should only be given to patients with KRAS wild-type tumors. The question of whether there is concordance of KRAS in primary and metastatic tumor is imperative as some patients with metastatic disease, particularly those with recurrent disease, may not have readily accessible tissue or may not be able to undergo a procedure to access tumor sampling. As research continues to evaluate the impact of predictive biomarkers on comprehensive clinical treatment decision – making, treatment will be designed based on unique disease characteristics. This approach will enable greater certainty of the potential of therapeutic response.ReferencesAllegra, C., Jessup, J.M., Somerfield, M.R., Hamilton, S.R., Hammond, E.H., Hayes, D.F., …Schilsky, R.L.

August 25, 2005
The search is over tonight for the suspects behind an Augusta County murder, just one day after the victim was found shot to death in his driveway.
Police were on the lookout for Tammie and James Almond in connection with the shooting. Although the two were found, one was found a victim, and the other, dead. This all after the murder of Cecil Redifer.
Residents of a Weyers Cave neighborhood are stilled shocked at the death of 39-year-old Redifer.
"He was a great guy. I can't believe it happened to him. I mean, he's the last person I thought it would happen to," said neighbor and family friend, Steven Rea.
He was shot Wednesday afternoon in the driveway of his home along Keezletown Road. Even more tragic, Redifer's son, Jason, was a marine from Stuarts Draft who died earlier this year fighting the war in Iraq.
"He talked to my stepdad about...when Jason died. He came over and talked to us about it. He took it bad, but he was starting to get over it," said Rea.
According to the Augusta County Sheriff's Office, Redifer's murder stemmed from an ongoing domestic situation that involved one of his co-worker's, Tammie Almond. Authorities say Almond was beaten, abducted, and threatened by her husband, James, Wednesday morning.
She was then dragged along while her husband followed Redifer home.
"Mr. Almond approached [Redifer] in the driveway. Fired twice with a high-powered rifle, striking him both times, and killing him," said Augusta County sheriff, R.D. Fisher.
The Almonds were found Thursday morning in the mountains of Camp Todd. Mrs. Almond was let go. James Almond was found dead, from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. He killed himself with the same rifle believed to be the murder weapon.
Although some questions as to what happened are now being answered, residents are surprised it could even happen in Weyers Cave.
"I've lived in Weyers Cave my whole life and I never expected [anything like this] to happen," said Rea.
The Augusta County Sheriff's Office says no charges are expected to be filed against Tammie Almond. She was treated for bruises and is believed to be with family now.

If you are running any addons, try turning them off. One or more may be interfering.
Ok i am having a slight problem with the new glyph system that the new patch carried. I know that you need an item called Vanishing Powder made by Scribes but what I am having a problem with is inscribing the actual glyph into my spellbook. I know that you have to learn the glyph before you are able to inscribe it but I can easily inscribe my prime glyphs but I am unable to inscribe my Major and Minor glyphs, when I click on the prime glyphs and it lights up my spell book showing me that I am able to inscribe it but when I click on either my minor or major glyphs all that happens is that the learned glyph is just highlighted and doesn't allow me to inscribe it. I tried basically everything from right clicking, left clicking, shift clicking EVERYTHING. Please help me I would like to have my glyphs back. :'(
If you are running any addons, try turning them off. One or more may be interfering.
Ok I will try that out I didn't really think that would effect it but I will try it. Im guessing you wouldn't know what addon might be effecting it? Lol. Guess i will be doing some searching. THANKS!
I think it might be Vuhdo because that is what I am using atm since Grid and HealBot are still broken. Thanks

this product helps somewhat, it has 12 tabs thats dissolve but they go quick as the effects are short term, for once in awhile they are worth it but if needed long term i would say no as too many would be needed.
