First I'm Good, then Popular Demand (Popeyes) and now Doorman. I'm beginning to think the Clipse's new swagger-esque sound is more than just a trend, it may just be the dominant sound of their new album. The latest leak of their highly anticipated, even more highly delayed album Till the Casket Drops, the centerpiece of Doorman is really the Neptunes' electronically dense production, a beat that stutters across the track with a strange but dope combination of hard-laced horns and Spanish style horns. Lyrically Pusha T and Malice take a more South Beach approach to their lyrics, largely trading in their trademark criminally minded flow for some more diamonds and cash oriented verses (don't worry, there's still plenty of coke talk). There's nothing to complain about here, I'm just not sure I like their new approach as much as their harder old school material. Will Till the Casket Drops deliver hardcore Clipse fans the grit they demand? We'll have to wait until the album drops on December 8. Let the countdown begin.

New Rumors Surface On Microsoft Buying Yahoo After Ballmer-Rose Interview
Ballmer discusses Yahoo acquisition rumour from PC Advisor reports on a recent interview with Microsoft's CEO Steve Ballmer and PBS's Charlie Rose.
In that interview, Rose questions Ballmer of the Yahoo/Microsoft merger rumors from earlier this year. The new revived question is if Microsoft is still interested in a Yahoo acquisition.
When Rose asked Ballmer, "Why don't we buy Yahoo?," Ballmer corrected Rose by saying Microsoft "didn't" purchase the company.
The new rumors do not lead to any more evidence of a possible Yahoo buyout but does lead to some more evidence supporting past rumors.

1. Field of the Invention
Generally, the invention involves a process for forming radar images. More specifically, the invention involves a process for mapping multiple bounce ghosts (MBGs) and for forming radar images without the deleterious effects of MBGs.
2. Description of the Related Art
Radar, at its most basic application, is used to measure the range to a target. With knowledge of the speed of propagation of the wave, i.e., electromagnetic wave, that is transmitted toward the target, it is possible to resolve in a first dimension, the distance to the target, based on the received reflected wave or echo. In order to use radar as an imaging tool, it is necessary to collect information about the cross-range of the target, in addition to the first dimension information. This cross-range information is about a second dimension perpendicular to the first dimension.
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can be used to collect data in both the first and second dimensions, through a process wherein the reflected waves are measured at different angles with respect to an object-of-interest. This process is referred to in the art as collecting radar measurements over a synthetic (as opposed to a literal) aperture. By taking various measurements of the object-of-interest from varying aspect angles, it is possible to determine approximate distance to the scattering centers within an object-of-interest in the first dimension and location of these scattering centers within the object-of-interest in the second, cross-range dimension. This process of two-dimensional imaging is commonly referred to as reflection tomography.
SAR systems take advantage of the long-range propagation characteristics of radar signals and the complex information processing capability of modern digital electronics to provide high-resolution imagery. SAR imaging is not restricted by time of day or atmospheric conditions due to its operative frequencies. Consequently, SAR imaging supplements other photographic and optical imaging techniques in order to facilitate environmental monitoring, earth-resource mapping, and military operations which may require broad-area imaging at high resolutions. More specifically, SAR technology provides detailed terrain information to geologists for mineral exploration, environmentalists for determination of oil spill boundaries, navigators for sea state and ice hazard mapping, and the military for reconnaissance and targeting information.
Other systems using reflection data, also referred to as projection measurements, are fault inspection systems using acoustic imaging, submarine sonar for imaging underwater objects and the like, seismic imaging system for tunnel detection, oil exploration, geological surveys, etc., and medical diagnostic tools such as sonograms and echocardiograms.
There have been two basic types of processing techniques used in the field of reflection tomography to reconstruct single-bounce (SB) reflection data. First, the frequency-domain projection-slice theorem takes the measured phase history from the reflection data taken at different aspect angles and generates the reconstruction of an image using Fourier transforms. This reconstruction technique is often used for reconstructing SAR imaging data in order to minimize the computational load that results from necessarily complex processing. A second technique, more prevalent in the medical imaging community, is based on the time-domain back projection techniques. Both of these techniques are discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,805,098 to McCorkle which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Summary of the Problem
The reflection data processing techniques described in the related art assume that the impinging wave reflects a single time off of the object of interest before returning back to the receiver. This assumption neglects the situation wherein the wave actually reflects off of multiple portions of the object of interest, cascading for any number of times, before returning to the receiver. All prior art on reflection tomography assumes only one bounce. That is, conventional tomography does not include the effects of multiple-bounce (MB) scattering events wherein the mediating waveform first scatters off of one portion of the extended object-of-interest, which then scatters in a cascade fashion off of one or more other regions of this same extended object-of-interest or off of other objects before scattering into the receiver. These facts motivate the need for the development of a modified image formation process that applies for cases in which the measured reflection data also identifies and accounts for MB scattering events.
A particular imaging scenario wherein the prior art process is insufficient includes determining the physical distribution of the scattering centers for cases in which multiple-bounce echoes occur. For example, prior art processes would have a difficult time determining from three (3) received echoes that instead of three scattering centers for an object-of-interest, the image actually contained two targets, wherein the third echo was between the two scattering centers as opposed to a third scattering center. The problem is exacerbated in a case where there are many scattering centers within the image, with the possibility for multiple bounces between the scattering centers. Further, in the case of SAR imaging, the process becomes even more complicated by the fact that the object (or region)-of-interest radar information is only gathered over a very small aspect angle range, for example, up to approximately 15 degrees. Current processing schemes place the multiple-bounce echoes at incorrect (ghost) locations due to fundamental assumptions implicit in the processing.
Summary of the Solution
Described herein are frequency-domain back-projection processes for forming, e.g, spotlight SAR images that are not corrupted by the effects of multiple-bounce ghosting artifacts. These processes give an approximately exact reconstruction of the multiple bounce reflectivity function (MBRF) ƒ(x,y,γ). As shown in the embodiments herein, the reconstruction process is not affected to any greater extent by noise and interference than in the case of the single bounce processing. Specifically, the evaluation of ƒ(x,y,γ) in the γ=0 plane gives an approximately exact reconstruction of the true object scattering centers which is uncorrupted by multiple-bounce contributions to the phase history data G(ξ, θ). In addition, the non-zero dependence of ƒ(x,y,γ) upon the MB coordinate γ can be used to facilitate the identification of features-interest within the imaged region.
In an embodiment of the present invention, a process is described for incorporating the effects of multiple bounces obtained using the back projection imaging process referred to herein, in order to obtain a cleaned up image that has removed the misleading effects of the multiple bounces, commonly referred to as multiple bounce ghosts (MBGs). The process identifies the MBGs and maps the MBG reflections into a metrically-correct image plane, also referred to as, a delay image plane or higher dimensional image plane, creating auxiliary images, which are useful in providing further information about the viewing region, including additional discriminating information that could assist in object recognition and identification. The imaging information, including both single and multiple bounce information, is only required for a narrow range of measurement angles.
The processes of the present invention are useful in three dimensional imaging, providing images that are free of multi-path effects, and extending the field-of-use of the technology beyond SAR imaging to all areas of reflection tomography. Because the technology incorporates a physical model that explicitly allows for multi-bounce effects in image formation, it is applicable to any image formation technology where that phenomenon is found such as, but not limited to, real aperture radar imaging, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging, inverse SAR (ISAR) imaging, active sonar underwater acoustic mapping, active geographic acoustic exploration and ultrasonic medical imaging.
In the Figures:
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the imaging process assumes the condition that a scattered waveform has the same characteristics as the incident waveform. In the context of SAR imaging, the measured range to target (i.e., assumed object-of-interest) of a given multiple bounce (MB) scattering event at some aperture angle is identical to that of an equivalent single bounce (SB) scattering event.
The specifics of the transmitter and receiver configurations usable with the embodiments described herein are known to those skilled in the art. Further, one skilled in the art recognizes that the mode of collection of the SAR data is not limited to any single mode, but may include, among others, spotlight mode, strip map mode, range Doppler profiler (RDP) mode, air-to-air mode, and the like.
Still referring to
Referring to
As described in the Summary of the Problem, conventional SAR theory assumes that all scattering events which affect the measured phase history data (i.e., range-to-target projections) are due to SB effects, as occurs with SP 1 in
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the best image of the true scattering centers is obtained by taking into account the MBG data retrieved via imaging through application of an image reconstruction algorithm for multi-bounce scattering (IRAMS). This process for applying the IRAMS is developed through examination of the properties of the MB scattering event shown in, for example,
Under the definitions above, all single-reflection scattering events are characterized by {tilde over (γ)}=0. Double-reflection scattering events have {tilde over (γ)}=√{square root over ((xf−xi)2+(yf−yi)2)}{square root over ((xf−xi)2+(yf−yi)2)}, whereas N-point scattering events with N>2 are characterized by {tilde over (γ)}>√{square root over ((xf−xi)2+(yf−yi)2)}{square root over ((xf−xi)2+(yf−yi)2)}. Again, the goal of this analysis is to remove the effects of all MB scattering events, which are described by {tilde over (γ)}>0, in order to form an improved spotlight SAR image.
Since only the mean position of the initial and final scattering centers can be determined uniquely, the measured range-to-target for a N-point scattering event with respect to the selected coordinate origin can be expressed in the form
Equation (3) shows that for any generic N-point scattering event with N>1, range-to-target measurements can yield only the values (x,y,γ). This result applies even if there are no other scattering events present. In fact, many individual scattering events having one, two, or more bounces can have identical values of (x,y,γ). Specifically, all scattering events having the same average position for the initial and final scattering centers, i.e., x≡(xi+xf)/2 and y≡{yi+yf}/2}, and having the same total path length {tilde over (γ)}≡2γ between the initial and final scattering centers contribute to the same (x,y,γ)-point in the MB reflectivity function (MBRF) density ƒ(x,y,γ). That is, the density ƒ(x,y,γ) at a given point in (x,y,γ)-space is formed by the integral of all N-point scattering events characterized by the same values of x, y, and γ. In general, the MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) is permitted to be a complex function, as in the modeling of the single-bounce reflectivity function ƒSB(x,y).
Consider the two different scattering events presented in
The measured MB projection function g(s, θ) is determined by the MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) via
Define the 1-D Fourier transform of the function g(s, θ) with respect to s, applied independently for each observation angle θ, i.e.,
There are two different classes of techniques for inverting Eq. (14) in order to obtain the SB reflectivity function density ƒSB(x,y) given the measured projections GSB(ξ, θ). The first class of methods invokes the projection-slice theorem. However, it is not clear that these projection-slice techniques can be utilized to invert the particular MB transformation equation (13) of the present embodiment. In particular, the measurements G(ξ, θ) are collected by varying the values of only two variables, i.e., ξ and θ. In contrast, the three-dimensional (3-D) Fourier transform of the desired MBRF density f(x,y,γ) requires an appropriate set of projection measurements over three dimensions, whereas there exist only two in the current example. Therefore, the application of projection-slice methods is not applied to invert the MB transformation equation (13) in the present embodiment. One skilled in the art recognizes that the application of the projection-slice method may be used as an alternative to inversion in an alternative embodiment, wherein the data consists of three-dimensional projection measurements.
The second class of inversion methods used to reconstruct the SB reflectivity function ƒSB(x,y) utilizes back-projection functions. Back projection functions reconstruct ƒSB(x,y) based upon the measured function-domain projection function gSB(s, θ). Alternatively, a frequency-domain back-projection technique may be used to reconstruct ƒSB(x,y). The present embodiment applies back-projection techniques in order to reconstruct the MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) based upon the phase history measurements G(ξ, θ).
Alternatively, for a continuous-domain solution, the inversion of the MB projection equation begins with the following definition of the back-projection operation applied to the MB measured transform-domain projections G(ξ, θ):
Substituting Eq. (13) for G(ξ, θ) into the back projection function b(x,y,γ) of Eq. (15) and interchanging the order of integration gives
SAR image reconstruction requires that the MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) be determined on a discrete grid in (x,y,γ) space, i.e., {xl}l=1, . . . ,L, {ym}m=1, . . . ,M, and {γn}n=1, . . . ,N. This grid is not required to have equal intervals between grid points in each of the three dimensions of (x,y,γ)-space. However, the assumption of a uniform grid will be shown to reduce the required computation time, even if each of the three dimensions has a different resolution. This analysis generates an estimate of the MBRF matrix
The measurements arising from the coherent processing of the received radar waveform are transduced at a finite set of discrete spatial frequencies {ξp}p=1, . . . ,P and a finite set of discrete observation angles {θq}q=1, . . . ,Q relative to the defined coordinate system. This grid in (ξp, θq)-space is not required to be uniform, just as the (xl,ym,γn)-space of the MBRF matrix
Given the definitions for the vectors
Equation (20) can be expressed in the basic form of the algebraic reconstruction problem
A method for obtaining a solution of Eq. (22) is via the pseudo-inverse
with the superscript
The matrix
The SB analog of Eq. (29) has the form
Since the measurements
The previous paragraphs have developed a technique for MB image reconstruction by deriving the 3-D convolution equation (29), which is equivalent to the matrix form of Eq. (25). The existence of a well-behaved solution for the MBRF
First, consider the fact that spotlight SAR phase history data is typically collected over a narrow extent of measurement angles Δθ≡θmax−θmin<<1, here considered about θ=0 without loss in generality. For a power-series expansion about θ=0 through only first order in θ, the factor cos(θq) in the normalized phase of Eq. (31) is approximately unity. Thus, the dependence of the along-range coordinate x in Eq. (31) is identical to that of the MB coordinate γ, so that the effects of x and γ cannot be differentiated through first order. Therefore, a well-behaved MB reconstruction requires that the extent of measurement angles Δθ be sufficiently large that second order effects become significant. The required second order expansion of Eq. (31) has the form:
In order to give a desired image-space resolution (δx, δy, δγ), the extent of measurements in spatial frequency Δξ and in angle Δθ must be selected to be large enough so that the zeroth, first, and second order terms in Eq. (37) all change by unity or greater between adjacent image-space cells (l,m,n). The change in the zeroth order phase term {lδx+nδγ}ξp of Eq. (37) exceeds unity between adjacent cells in both the x and γ dimensions over the extent of spatial frequencies if
The change in the first order phase term mδyθqξp of Eq. (37) exceeds unity between adjacent cells in the y dimension over the extent of measurement angles if
In order to derive an expression for the measurement intervals δξ and δθ required for a desired image-space extent (Δx≡Lδx, Δy≡Mδy, Δγ≡Nδγ, consider the normalized phase of Eq. (37) with θq=qδθ and ξp=ξcf+pδξ, i.e.,
The SAR image reconstruction processes developed above are applied to simulated MB phase history data with the following results.
The three coupled scattering centers at (x,y)=(3, 12), (5, 12) and (5, 14) in the upper right corner 18 of
The MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) for γ≠0 in
The true values of the MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) shown in
The results of Eq. (37)-(49) are used to determine the required sampling intervals and extents of both the spatial frequency ξ and the angular coordinate θ which are necessary to reconstruct the truth MBRF ƒ(x,y,γ) of
For the sake of comparison, the desirable MB image reconstruction of
The ability to form a well-behaved MB inversion depends entirely upon the coordinate grids {xl, ym, γn} and {ξp, θq} selected for the desired MBRF
The embodiment described above may be extended to include data from a higher number of spatial dimensions. Define
The generic
The corresponding
In a similar fashion, the
in terms of the kernel function
Thus, the inversion for the MBRF yields
The multiple-bounce inversion technique yields excellent reconstructions of the multiple-bounce reflectivity function ƒ(x,y,γ). In fact, these multiple-bounce inversion methods will not degrade the reconstructed image for cases in which the phase history measurements G(ξ, θ) contain only single-bounce contributions. In contrast, the single-bounce inversion methods of conventional spotlight SAR theory yield spurious ghosting artifacts in the image reconstruction ƒSB(x,y) for cases in which multiple-bounce events contribute to the measured phase history data G(ξ, θ).
In an alternate embodiment of the present invention,
The IRAMS process described herein is also applicable to near-field collection data, wherein the wavefronts are curved. For the 2-D problem above, assume that the radius and angle (in polar coordinates) of the sensor are given by R(η) and φ(η), respectively, in terms of a scalar parameter η which can vary in any fashion with regard to the attributes of the scene of interest. Then the measured range-to-target with respect to the coordinate origin is
Further, the location of the transmitter and receiver can be different. The required modifications for such a bistatic collection are well-known to those skilled in the art. There are two primary modifications required. First, the measurement angle θ for a two-dimensional monostatic collection (wherein the transmitter and receiver are co-located) in the far-field is replaced by the bisector angle between the angle of the transmitter and that of the receiver. Second, the measured spatial frequencies for this problem are scaled by the factor cos(β/2), with β equal to the angle between that of the transmitter and that of the receiver. Further extension of the bistatic problem to the near-field case and to a non-planar collection surface, as presented above for the monostatic case, can be accomplished by one who is skilled in the art.
The specific examples described above are not intended to be limiting. Alteration of the processes described above is contemplated by one skilled in the art for application of the IRAMS process to various types of reflection tomographic data, including radar, sonar, and the like.

Water sport using a small human-powered boat.
The Mosquito Bioluminescent Bay on the Island of Vieques, Puerto Rico (or "Bio Bay" as it is sometimes called), is the world's largest and brightest. The bioluminescent bay is the most bioluminescent in the World as determined by the Guinness Book of World Records in 2008. It contains up to 160,000 microscopic dinoflagellates per liter of water. When agitated, these microscopic organisms (Pyrodinium bahamense or swirling fire) react, emitting a blue-green light for about a decimal of a second.
There are other bioluminescent bays around the island, but the Mosquito Biobay is the one that shines with the most intensity, its shallow and small entrance from the sea impedes the waves from washing away the dinoflagellates; and the mangrove trees, with their decomposition process, provides abundant food for the micro-organisms.
The luminescence is caused by micro-organisms (dinoflagellates) which glow whenever the water is disturbed, leaving a trail of neon blue. These half-plant, half-animal organisms emit a flash of bluish light when agitated at night. The high concentration of these creatures can create enough light from which to read a book. A combination of factors creates the necessary conditions for bioluminescence: red mangrove trees surround the water (the organisms feed off the dead leaves); a complete lack of modern development around the bay; the water is cool enough and deep enough; and a small channel to the ocean keeps the dinoflagellates in the bay. This small channel is the result of Spanish ships' attempts to choke off the bay from the ocean's waters. The Spanish believed that the bioluminescence they first encountered was the work of the Devil ('El Diablo') and tried to block the ocean's waters from entering the bay by dropping huge boulders in the channel. The Spanish only succeeded in preserving and increasing the luminescence. Kayaking is permitted in the bay and can be arranged through local vendors.
Proposed Congressional legislation to protect this natural wonder is the Vieques Bioluminescent Bay Conservation Act of 2008. This law designates certain submerged lands and waters of Puerto Mosquito Bay, Puerto Rico, as the Puerto Mosquito Bay National Marine Sanctuary under specified provisions of the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act of 1972. The Act gives the governor of Puerto Rico veto power over the designation of any part of that area and over the related management plan and regulations. The Act also directs the Secretary of Commerce to issue a comprehensive management plan and implementing regulations.

Muller Light urges Bridget Jones moment in new push
LONDON - Muller Light is urging customers to 'have a Bridget Jones moment' with the launch of a multimillion-pound integrated campaign and licensing deal to coincide with the sequel to 'Bridget Jones's Diary' in November.
Consumers purchasing a pot of Muller Light will be invited to text the best before date on the lid to receive a Bridget Jones dilemma from the nation's favourite singleton to respond to. Entries can also be made through a dedicated microsite.
The instant-win promotion, devised by Catalyst Marketing, offers prizes ranging from luxury holidays in Thailand, bottles of champagne, cases of chardonnay, indulgent chocolates and free cinema tickets. The promotion will be supported via TV ads, bus sides and press advertising.
The promotion will run on 65m pots of Muller Light across supermarkets and convenience stores from October to December 2004 to coincide with the film's release in November. It will be supported via TV ads, bus sides and press advertising.
Austen Donnellan, group account director at Catalyst, said: "We wanted to bring some added excitement and interest to the Muller Light brand. The key to doing this was to link Muller Light with a property that has an established consumer base and a personality that our target audience can relate to -- 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' -- is an ideal partner."
'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' continues on from the first film with Bridget, played by Renee Zellweger, left in the arms of lawyer Mark Darcy, played by Colin Firth. However, she has to tackle tiny jealousies such as the long-legged, drop-dead, "I-always-say-the-right-thing-at-all-times" intern working with Darcy. Hugh Grant also returns in the sequel as Daniel Cleaver, who was her boss at a publishing company in the first film.

As we see in the third episode of Seasonaires, once riding gets in your blood then in pulses on and on. Emily started coming to Whistler many years ago when the Bike Park was in it's infancy. For Emily, who was a dedicated downhill racer at the time, Whistler was a great place to come and ride because of the trails and the people imbedded there that helped push her riding.
Nine years later, after riding many places around the world, Emily still finds herself drawn to Whistler for the summers because of it's incredible diversity in riding styles and motivated riding community.

March 21, 2012 (MMD Newswire) -- Vertu Fine Art (VFA) is excited to present False Profits, a solo exhibition of multidisciplinary
artist Steven D. Gagnon. On view will be a selection of his mixed media works, prints, sculptures, and video
installations. The artist's often witty and sardonic pieces investigate American culture through the juxtaposition of symbols and
imagery in an effort to better understand the society that has influenced and shaped the artist.
Over the last decade, Gagnon's work has exhibited widely and presented at such prestigious venues as both 2008
Presidential Conventions, the Fotofest biennial in Houston, and art fairs in Miami, New York City, Palm Beach, and in the
German cities of Berlin and Cologne. He has participated in many museum group shows throughout the country including such
institutions as the Naples Museum of Art, the Palm Springs Desert Museum, the Bladen Memorial Art Museum, the Fresno
Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of South Texas, and the Mary Brogan Museum of Art and Science. His art has been
the focus of a feature article in the Miami NewTimes, written up in Wall Street Journal, published in Harper's Magazine, printed
in the literary journal of the Henry Miller Library, and discussed in numerous online art periodicals and blogs such as
ArtInfo.com, ArtLog.com and ArtNet.com. Gagnon's work has also been displayed on billboards in Miami, New York City, and
throughout the state of California.
TheFederal Reserve Board in Washington, D.C., the Art Museum of South Texas, American Bank, InterBank, Patrizia
Grundbesitz GmbH, The American Bankers Association, and UMB Bank are a few of the public and corporate collections that
own his work. In addition, his work is in such private collections as Jean Cherqui of Paris; former Ambassador to Singapore,
Steven J. Green; Miami art collector, Richard Shack; and author, Andrew Tobias.
The exhibition will run from March 22nd until April 22nd. Opening night is April 5th from 7 to 10 p.m. with a special presentation
of the Border Cruiser, Gagnon's mobile video installation that tells the story of an undocumented Brazilian immigrant living in
the United States.
Vertu Fine Art (VFA) is located at 5250 Town Center Circle, Boca Raton, Fl 33486 and can be reached at 561.368.4680

Where Will Baby Sleep?

Where Will Baby Sleep?
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 8:59am
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 9:28am
In a bassinet in our room for at least three months. Then a crib in a bedroom (not sure if sharing with another child or on their own). I tried the co-sleeping route with my son and still have trouble keeping him in his own bed at night at 3.5 years old, so I will not co-sleep again.
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 11:34am
If we can get the girls moved into the same bedroom by the time the baby gets here he'll sleep in his crib from day one.
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 12:11pm
We'll do what we did with DD. Our LO will sleep in a bassinet right next to our bed at first. When they outgrow that, they'll be in a crib in our room. S/he will definitely share a room with us for at least 6 months before we move them to their own room. Having the baby right by my bed so I can check on them easily at night gives me peace of mind, plus not having to traipse down the hall is a big plus when you're breastfeeding every 2 hours!
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 6:20pm
She will be in the mini pack n' play in our room for the first few weeks atleast. Then she will be moved into the crib in DD's room when she starts going longer between feedings!
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 9:42pm
We do the crib in their own room from day 1. It worked with our first, so we'll be doing it again.
|Mon, 06-20-2011 - 11:10pm
Well, probably for the first few weeks he will sleep in the PnP in our room..then we will get him situated in the crib.
|Tue, 06-21-2011 - 12:05am
Not 100% sure yet. I know we'll start out with baby girl in the bassinet beside the bed in our room. Since I plan on breastfeeding, she'll probably stay there until she's either sleeping mostly through the night or we just feel she's ready to move to her own crib.
And honestly, I'll probably end up co-sleeping most nights like I did with DD#1 - she'd fall asleep at my breast and so would I! We had no trouble transitioning to the crib either when the time came.

Who's leaking in Ferguson?
By WILLIAM H. FREIVOGEL// Attorney General Eric Holder said this week that he was "exasperated" by the flood of leaks from the criminal investigations of Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson's shooting of Michael Brown on Aug. 9. He suspects local officials leaked the information favorable to Wilson, just as they had earlier leaked a video allegedly showing Brown robbing a convenience store owner.
But two of the three leaks – the ones in the Washington Post and the New York Times – were written by the newspapers' Justice Department reporters in Washington. The Times story on Oct. 17 attributed the information to "government officials briefed on the federal civil rights investigation" – not the state criminal investigation.

Reddit founder's dad: Son 'killed by government' - 23 Comments
The grieving father of Internet activist Aaron Swartz lashed out at Boston prosecutors yesterday at his son's funeral, saying his suicidal son was "killed by the government" — but the father of a hacker who took his own life while under federal investigation says that's too harsh a verdict.

Welcome to MSIB. Welcome to Elizabethtown!
Market Street! Improving Business (MSIB) is a 100% volunteer organization made up of 5 local small business owners. All MSIB's officers have a business located on Market Street in the Elizabethtown Borough (See the "About MSIB" for more information), and all but one of us live in Elizabethtown. We are focused on bringing our downtown business district, the center square, and the main street back to life, back to a thriving self-sustaining economical and activity driven community. 100% of any funds raised and/or received by MSIB is put directly back into activities, improvements, safety, support, and marketing for Elizabethtown. Our mission is to engage the community to buy, shop, and dine with locally owned businesses and in turn strengthen the economic stability of our town. Basically, we are building a strong heart and foundation while working our way out.
MSIB has six major areas of focus:
- Business revitalization and stability
- Provide education to the value of shopping locally and engage the local residents with the local businesses
- Create marketing opportunities to all businesses throughout Etown and the surrounding areas
- Continued beautification of our streets, storefronts, sidewalks, historic buildings and more
- Creating a strong brand identity to Etown.
- Establish open lines of communication and continuity with all major groups and organizations in Etown which allows us to work together and share resources, ideas, and more.
WE NEED HELP!!! We do have internship opportunities as well we are looking for the go-getters of the town. Those that want to make a difference and can help. Volunteer to use your skill, talent, craft, and/or expertise to assist our mission.
Ask not what your town can do for you... DO something for your town.

This is not the first time I've heard about Mel Gibson sharing the wealth since his phenomenal success with The Passion of the Christ (I know someone whose auntie is a tiny, cute-as-a-button and very young 83 year old nun, and have heard stories of Gibson's generosity in solving the various housing or medical bill costs of several orders) but it's the first one I've seen in print.
Good for Gibson. And God bless these kids.

Asian Market in Philly?
- e
- egordon132 Sep 13, 2007 07:37 PM
Hi! I just moved to the Philly area, and am looking for an Asian Market. I'm located out in Manayunk, but am willing to drive to find one.
Thank you!
re: jessicheese
What? I've never seen anything remember "huge" in Chinatown. Where is this place and how late does it open?
re: Ali
Asia Supermart isn't huge but it's fairly large for being in Chinatown... there are two entrances from the street, and you go down a flight of stairs to the store. One entrance is on 11th just south of Race, next to the garage exit, and you pass by some jewelry/purse/trinket stand on your way to the stairs. The other entrance is on Race just east of 11th and I believe it's between Joy Tsin Lau and Ong's.
The other, smaller supermarket in C-town is Chung May, on Race between 10th and 11th--across the street from the Race entrance to the underground market. Also there are small stores selling only fruit and vegetables; they are pretty easy to find by walking around.
re: Dib
Yeah - it took me like a year before I stumbled upon it. It's not HUGE per se - but definitely big considering you're not even expecting anything like that from the street level.
Very authentic and (of course) very cheap. Everything's fresh and bring me back to the market's of my youth.
re: baekster
Seems like Koreans are more established out in the burbs. Assi in North Wales is great, and there's also H-mart (Han Ah Reum) in Upper Darby and Elkins Park.
re: baekster
Any idea if there are any Filipino markets? I heard there's one in Cherry Hill, but haven't heard of any in Philly.
re: sheskrafty23
There is one in Cherry Hill, along with a Filipino restaurant in the same shopping center, the Centrum Shops on Route 561, (Haddonfield-Berlin Road.) The restaurant keeps odd hours, I have noticed. The grocery store seems to be open all the time. The grocery store is pretty small, but it appears to be pretty busy.
Much closer to you is the huge Hong Kong Supermarket in the Rising Sun Plaza at the corner of Rising Sun Ave and Adams Ave. not far off Roosevelt Blvd. Actually, the drive along Adams to and from the Blvd. takes you past some great ethnic restaurants too including Korean, Vietnamese, Indian, Portuguese. A nice break from the bland restaurants of Manayunk (where I live too).
What kind of Asian? Han Ah Reum International Market (7320 Old York Road, 19027) has a lot of reasonably-priced Japanese and Korean products, as well as pre-made Korean food for takeout. There is a large selection of produce and fish, as well as a cosmetics and video (!) section. Adjacent to the main market area are a bunch of little shops, a bakery, and a Korean restaurant.
