It says a great deal about the enduring power of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes that modern adaptations of the character basically confine themselves to homage. We have an anti-social but brilliant doctor working in contemporary New Jersey in House and anti-social but brilliant detective working in New York in Law & Order: Criminal Intent. But even in the new movie franchise starring Robert Downey, Jr., Holmes wears tweed, travels by hackney, and chews his pipe: Holmes and his era are not soon parted.
But as Sherlock—a brilliant BBC One modernization that will begin airing on PBS Sunday at 9 pm—demonstrates, bringing Holmes and Watson into the 21st century ought to have been, well, elementary. The BBC has made three 90-minute movies created by Doctor Who veterans Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffatt and plans to make more episodes of the same length.
Among the analogues that are obvious in retrospect is the update of the events that first unite Watson and Holmes. The literary Watson was injured during his service in the Battle of Maiwand in the Second Anglo-Afghan War. After a long convalescence from fever and a period of dissolute life in a Strand hotel, he finds himself a highly amusing flatmate in the person of Sherlock Holmes.
This time around, Watson's sustained his injury in Afghanistan again, but as part of British forces supporting the post-9/11 American invasion. Perhaps fittingly, given that depressing repetition of history, Martin Freeman's Watson is a wiser and sadder than his literary predecessor. Rather than a lingering fever, he has an unhelpful therapist who encourages him to blog. But he still has a handy service weapon and a wholly inadequate military pension. He's isolated by his service rather than ennobled by it: there are no other veterans in his life, and his therapist misdiagnoses him and doesn't help him get out into the world. "You're a war hero who can't find a place to live," Holmes says in one of their early conversations, underscoring Watson's alienation from his remaining relative, his alcoholic lesbian sister.
Freeman's turned-down mouth and turned-up nose have often served to cast him as a sweetie, as he was in the original version of The Office, or a naif, as he was as Arthur Dent in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But in Sherlock, Freeman imbues those features with a real grimness. He lacks some of the original Watson's capacity for amusement, but he isn't a post-traumatic wreck. He's got a yen for action that paces Holmes' own. In his flatmate, he finds not simply an entertaining curiosity but a revivifying partner.
Watson's Afghan service isn't the new miniseries' only deftly tweaked update to Conan Doyle's creation. Sherlock's brother Mycroft Holmes, a lazy genius employed by the government and described in the stories as "the most indispensable man in the country," is now a figure of considerable importance in the British surveillance system. Instead of the urchins who filled the ranks of the Baker Street Irregulars, a Banksy-like graffiti artist shows up to offer advice and pass the blame for his latest piece to Watson in the second episode, and an enterprising homeless woman appears in the third. And the long-suffering Mrs. Hudson now has enough black humor to cluck at the man keeping a skull in her apartment, "I'm your landlady, not your housekeeper," and to cut him a break on the rent because he helped speed the execution of her late husband.

You create a new 'Deck' and then adjust to the size you want. Then, you select 'Add Components' and select what you want. YOu can click on multiple items and add multiple things to the list of select components. Then you just place them on the Deck where you want and hit Save, then export.
Posted 04 October 2013 - 01:11 PM
Thanks -- the time I checked, "Deck was grayed out as a choice, but I'll play with it and see what I can do.
Posted 05 October 2013 - 05:03 AM
The Deck menu was greyed out because you were not editing a deck. New decks are created like any other kind of component: File|New, then select the category Card Decks and Game Boards and the Deck of Cards component type. Now you have a new deck; continue with the instructions above. (Although it isn't entirely clear from your question that you want to Export the finished deck.)
By the way, as an alternative to laying out the deck yourself, you can create a New Project, add a Deck of Cards task to it, copy the .eon files you want to include in the task folder (or create them there), and then right click on the task folder and choose Make Deck. Then select the paper size and other options you want and click the Make Deck button. Strange Eons will do all the layout work for you and save the result in the file you specified.
Tip: If you want to include any of the files in your deck more than once, open the copies file that appears in the task folder. Drag-and-drop a file you want multiple copies of into the copies file editor, and then type the number of copies to include (if more than two).

Green technology developer CarbonCure Technologies Inc. boosts its growing team with two key hires. Dr. Paul Sandberg, a global leader in cement chemistry, will be joining the technical team as vice president of materials science. Don Gordon, formerly CEO of concrete producer Atlas Block, will be joining the team as director of sales.
Dr. Paul Sandberg is a world-renowned expert with more than 25 years experience in cement chemistry and chemical admixture technology. He was formerly principal scientist and technical director of key accounts at W. R. Grace, one of the world's largest suppliers of catalysts, engineered materials, specialty construction chemicals and building materials. Dr. Sandberg, who is involved in several startups in the cement and concrete industry, will be taking on the role of vice president of materials science to lead the firm's chemical admixture research and development program.
Don Gordon is a well-respected concrete industry pioneer who brings 30 years of manufacturing experience to the CarbonCure team. A recipient of numerous industry and sustainability awards for bringing the concept of sustainability to the concrete sector, including the 2014 Clean 16 award, Mr. Gordon was formerly the CEO of Atlas Block, an Ontario-based concrete products manufacturer that was recently acquired by Brampton Brick. As director of sales, Mr. Gordon will use his vast industry experience to establish partnerships with concrete manufacturers to bring green concrete to markets across North America.
The addition of the new hires comes at a time of significant momentum for the company, which closed a $3.5 million Series B round of venture capital funding last week.
Over the past year, CarbonCure has expanded its team with nine new hires. CarbonCure will continue to attract top talent in 2014 as it seeks to fill additional technical, marketing and sales positions.
The green concrete technology is currently available for concrete blocks, pavers and segmental retaining walls, and the firm will expand to the precast and ready mixed concrete markets in 2014.

Through the pages of The Death of Right and Wrong, author, activist, and pundit Tammy Bruce goes inside the world of the Left—a place where, she believes, morals and decency have been turned on their heads and the crisp distinction between Right and Wrong has been blurred into a mushy, gray mess.
As a gay activist and former president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization of Women, Bruce witnessed firsthand the Left's attempts to undermine what she sees as a millennia-old code of morals and values, aided by politically biased media and academia. She then asserts that unless conservatives act now, they are doomed at the hands of special interest groups on the Left who want nothing more than to undermine society's ability to judge right from wrong.

Hi, I'm Laurie Murphy, I'm a co-project leader here at the compost workshop center at Fair Oaks Horticulture Center and we finished up our first batch of compost. I've got some really nice compost down at the ten bins that we tried. This was the final project and this was not shredded when we started, it was just garden clippings but we do have a lot of the sticks and twigs that didn't compost fully. So the larger sticks and twigs, we actually added to the pile for our next. This is our, where we were gathering for our second compos batch which was just started. So we fill the nine bins with the shredded material and it should compost quite a bit quicker. So now, we're about a week into it and we're starting to take the temperatures, the temperatures rose up to like, hundred and sixty degrees the first couple of days. We've actually turned them once. We've tumbled the tumblers every time we come out here about every other day, when we take the temperatures. So that's what we're going to do today is turn them and take the temperatures.
Hi again, I'm Nikolai Laqualia. I'm a University of California Cooperative Extension Master Gardener in Sacramento County here. We're back here again at the Fair Oaks Horticulture Center at our Compost Research and Workshop area. Laurie Murphy, my co-coordinator here is turning one of the bins. Now you can see the steam coming out of it. Its, its pretty hot in there, we have a , we reached a hundred and sixty four degrees within one day, after filling the bins this time, they've already talked about that we've shredded the materials this time and the mixture and percentages of green to brown that we've used and some of the results we've got on our first trial. In the future, what we're going to be looking at is, how would these work for different types of uses? Let's say if someone was older or just didn't have the strength to use one of these larger bins which could hold up to a ton of wet materials when you first fill them and even when you.
Even if you make it easy to turn them by lifting the bin off as we talked about in the last segment and just move the material back in; you're still having to lift that amount of material. There's a lot of people, a couple of our people involved here would never be able to do that. So we're going to be assessing each one of them, using a criteria of, how can, how can this be used by different types of people. Another part of our next set of trials will be including, vermin composting or worm composting. We're going to take a look at different types of containers for that and where to keep the out here, how often they would need to be filled and the results from that two. Research shows that as compost is to regular soil, as far as adding nutrients and available nutrients to the plants that they can actually take up. Worm compost is to compost the same way.
The materials, the nutrients, the calcium, things like that that are in the worm compost is immediately available to the plants. It's kind of a myth that the plants take the nutrients from the soil, they really take it from the microbes next to the roots. And those microbes which are in the compost pile, being spread around and one of the things that we're doing is adding the humus that's in there and adding the other materials that's in there as an amendment. But it's the microorganisms that are doing the real work for us here and that are going to be adding then nutrients to the soil out here in the garden and we'll take a walk over here in the garden and we'll show you where some of the places we've used them.
This is our vegetable section of the Fir Oaks Horticulture Center. It's about ten rows, few hundred square feet of vegetables. It's in Winter Crop and Cover Crop right now. Down here you can take a look. This has got the compost mixed in that we had from our first trial. And you can see how nice the soil is. Little bit of history about the Fair Oaks Horticulture Center, when we took possession of this section of the garden, a week before, the parks happened to mead the soil. On top here and they took all the top soil and put it down the hill down there underneath the parking lot and left us with really, just the substrata which was primarily just a hard clay oil that couldn't even be dug into. And so you can see the richness of this soil that we've got up here now and part of that is going to be endue to the compost we add to it. We have some addition although we stored on the side and anybody in the garden that needs it has the, our blessings to come over and take some and just use it wherever they need.
There's pure compost. You can see there is, it's a real humus rich, it's got a mixture of some of the larger, semi decomposed sticks and things in it. We've talked about this, it really adds to the soil to use that part of it in the soil as an amendment. It adds spaces for air, for water, the nutrients in the soil as well as in the compost need the same three things we need to live and that's food, air and water. And so, having these extra pieces in here, most of the time will take the bigger ones out and just put them into mix compost while they're kind of inoculate. But you can see. It's just beautiful, beautiful compost, and you can do this too.

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun
By Steve Brennan
By Ashley Zimmerman
In the mid-'90s, many considered the multimembered New York City act King Chango to be part of the larger constellation of ska revival acts flourishing in that city. But the band's musical roots ran deeper than many of its peers'. Yes, the "Chango" in its name is indeed a nod to the Yoruba god, and the band was also founded by Venezuelan-born Andrew "Blanquito Man" Blanco. As such, King Chango brought a hard-charging sound to its brass section, with a larger section of the Caribbean and Latin America influencing its sonic brew. The Latin touch also helped the band escape much of the derision later lobbed at the more purist ska acts, and King Chango was gleefully embraced by the Latin alternative scene in its later years. Another way in which the band stood out was with its openly political lyrics. In the later years of the band, for instance, it has vocally supported the removal of U.S. troops from the Puerto Rican island of Vieques.
Although King Chango officially disbanded in 2003, Blanco announced earlier this year on his Blogspot blog that the group was officially back together. Since then, it's appeared at a number of industry showcases like the Latin American Music Conference and CMJ and launched a few national tour dates. With a new (and coed!) lineup, the band's sound is even more boisterous and Latin but still touches on the influence of Jamaican beats. Fans should feel especially lucky about catching this show too — Blanco was recently rushed to the hospital for emergency gallbladder surgery, forcing the cancellation of two shows in his native Venezuela. This show at the North Beach Bandshell, though, should find him in high spirits and ready again to party for a revolution.

Andrew P. Mayer's third steampunk superhero novel — a fantastic and fun read called Power Under Pressure — came out from PYR Books in January. It's the third book of his Society of Steam trilogy, following The Falling Machine and Hearts of Smoke & Steam. These stories capture the feel of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells while being set in Victorian New York City, where Mayer was born. Mayer is a game designer who has also has written comic books and short stories. You can find Andrew online at societyofsteam.com, andrewpmayer.com/, and on Twitter as @AndrewMayer.
SFFWRTCHT: Andrew, congrats on the completion of your trilogy. What's it like to have that complete cycle under your belt?
Andrew P. Mayer: I'm still breathing the same sigh of relief that I started when I handed in the book. It's nice to have the completed story out in the world after six years of work.

3" x 3" x 96" Landscape Timber $1.96 at Lowe's
This is a San Antonio, TX price, but I checked from NY to CA, and they are undercutting by at least $2.00 per timber (in other chains). So: YMMV ITEM # 4475-- mine measure 3"x4". I have supported a deck by stacking 6 high- drilled and hammered rebar through to keep them together. Now using as edging between lawn and xeriscaping. P.S. last posted in 2011, I see no expiration date on these.

LP Building Products Launches New LP® SolidGuard™ LSL
LP Building Products has announced the launch of its new LP ® SolidGuard™ LSL, adding protection against termite damage and fungal decay to its LSL product. As the industry embraces wood framing in taller multifamily structures, this new product provides a treated sill plate solution to help eliminate shrinkage.
"Shrinkage is an important concern for lumber in multistory structures as it can affect shear wall performance and structural capability. Using LSL for wall plates and sill plates as a part of a wood framing system can significantly reduce plate shrinkage," said Kim Rogers, EWP product manager for LP Building Products. "The new LP SolidGuard LSL provides our customers with a full wall plate solution for taller wood-framed buildings."
In typical dried lumber, moisture content may be up to 19 percent. Over time, the lumber will dry down to the moisture equilibrium of the finished building—typically 8 to 12 percent—causing the wood to shrink and potentially resulting in misaligned framing, broken window seals, and damaged plumbing.
Using LSL wall plates and sill plates can help eliminate plate shrinkage. "The moisture levels of our product are carefully controlled throughout the manufacturing process, giving all LP SolidGuard and SolidStart LSL products a 7 to 10 percent moisture content, similar to the moisture equilibrium inside the building, meaning that there's no moisture level to which our product has to dry down."LP SolidGuard LSL is treated with zinc borate for fungal decay and termite resistance. LP SolidGuard LSL framing materials are intended for use in aboveground protected applications such as sill plates, columns, rim board and studs. The product is not intended for ground contact or continuous exposure to weather, nor can it be substituted for treated studs in a permanent wood foundation. The zinc borate is blended into the LSL, eliminating the need for field treatment of cut ends. The product requires no special handling or disposal as borate is a naturally occurring mineral that is odorless and colorless in wood.

Flipboard for Android has been one of the most beautiful news-reading apps since it finally launched in the Google Play Store, and today it seems to be getting even better. Version 1.9.7 brings some features to make the experience audible. You can listen to features from the likes of NPR Fresh Air, PRI's The World, and more. It'll be a nice change of pace from just being able to read.
You can also discover new music and share with your friends to help them do the same using SoundCloud. SoundCloud is the music sharing community where people can upload their music for the world to hear, so if your friends have a new track they want you to listen to or one they want to recommend you won't need to go to SoundCloud — it'll pop right up in your Flipboard.
Other than that there aren't many other changes in this 3 megabyte upgrade. You're getting the usual bug fixes and performance improvements, and as usual we won't know the fl extent of those (but do we really need to know unless it's a major bug?) Go ahead and find the free app in the Google Play Store.

In the past, our stuff was always left by Tinkerbell while they were asleep for a surprise in the morning...usually a couple things a night, with pixie dust sprinkled around it.
I always got my little gifts from the Dollar Store.
I was in there this past week and saw Princess and other Disney themed puzzles, and they had a bunch of Disney Princess and Pooh Bear/Tigger/Piglet and Mickey Mouse figurines. They had Princess jumpropes and they had little combs/mirror sets in Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty themes. I also saw yo-yo's and little cars.
I usually had Disney themed bubbles and balloons (just regular balloons they would blow up and play with in the room, not the balloons you buy in the parks)
Epcot has the Nemo themed ride, so any Nemo item would work. Animal Kingdom has the Lion King, Pocohontas and Bug's Life themes, so anything for Lion King or Bug's Life would work. In the past I got books that went with the different characters in each park.
Hollywood Studios has Playhouse Disney or is it Disney, Junior now? Anyway, anything that is currently playing on Disney Jr would work for HS. They also have the Muppet show there, so any Muppet thing would work. And, they have the Toy Story ride and the Cars area, too, so both of those character items would fit.
I would save a couple items from the Welcome bag, like the flip flops and swimsuit or towel to give on waterpark day.
If you plan to be in the parks after dark, glow necklaces/bracelets are always a hit and you can get those at the Dollar Store, too. We always have plenty of glow stuff.
Another fun thing I gave usually the first night was magic washcloths with Disney characters on them. These are the ones that are wrapped up really tightly and unwrap when you put them in water. Then, we used them for baths every night. I saw some at the Dollar store, but also the Disney store usually has them. You can also get body wash and bubble bath with Disney characters on the bottles at the grocery. At least you know you'll use it!
This year my DD is 10, so I don't think I'll get away with the Dollar Store items, but she's still wondering if Tinkerbell will leave her anything...we leave in 32 days, so I hope I come up with something!
Hope this gives you some ideas! Have a great trip!

I've done the Tinker Bell thing also, where I will pre buy some stuff either at the Disney Store, Dollar Store, Walmart, online and leave a few things a day for each of them. Also a great way to get a discount on Park Merchanise is to get it online through the Disney Store when they have their 25% off sale!
Also, in 2011 my mom took me and my girls and my sister and her DD to WDW. What my mom did was she made envelops for each kid for each day of the week. Each enevelop contained their spending money for the day (it was a ridiculous amount) and then necklaces, rings, stickers, tattoos, little bubbles....just little bobbles that they would get excited about. When I went the following year, my mom after seeing how much the kids loved them, did them again for my kids and my friends two DD's minus the obscene amount of spending money, but it didn't matter they loved getting them everyday.

I made my kids road trip goody bags that included:
Disney sticker books
fun Disney themed snacks
mini Disney notebook
Disney crayons
Disney coloring books
activity book
new Nintendo DS game for my 5 year old
borrowed a few new Disney DVD's for the car ride
I also had a welcome gift that I put in the hotel room prior to the children entering the room--each child had a personalized shirt with their name on it, a hand made autograph book and a few fun snacks to take to the park.

Eye Spy Bags or Bottles for travel.
If you don't sew you can use an empty water bottle and put rice and little items inside to find. Penny, eraser, button, paper clip, confetti, pom pom, dice, bead, etc. I alternate filling with rice and the items so they aren't clumped together. Leave some room for the items to move around so they can be found. Hot glue the lid closed.
If you sew, there are free instructions on how to make them on the Disboutique thread on the Family Board.

Sort of on topic...How about before you go, get a Disney card with Mickey or whatever character you can find and mail them the card with Mickey saying can't wait to see you again...
Also go to Home Depot they have the Disney paint colors on cut out ears, do a countdown calendar...
Good luck!

Stocks Lift Ahead of Jobs Report
(Updated with stock prices.)
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stocks in New York moved modestly to the upside Thursday, as investors shook off mixed data to focus on Friday's unemployment report.
The major indices ended near their highs of the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 63.94 points, or 0.7%, to 9344.61, while the S&P 500 tacked on 8.49 points, or 0.9%, to 1003.24. The Nasdaq Composite added 16.13 points, or 0.8%, to 1983.2.
Financials did particularly well, with the KBW Bank index rising 2.5%, and Citigroup (C) and UBS (UBS) gaining 4.6% and 5%, respectively.There was news aplenty with a rebound in Chinese stocks , some expectation-topping retail sales, and mixed economic data , but Wall Street stayed relatively focused on Friday's jobs report. "There's a lot of caution out there that says let's not get ahead of our headlights, it certainly keeps things on the conservative side and keeps people from taking long positions," says Brian Bethune, chief U.S. financial economist at HIS Global Insight. Some of that caution shined through in gold, which rose to $999.50 an ounce as investors migrated to safety and bet on a weakening dollar, sending metals stocks higher. Expectations are for a slight increase in the unemployment rate to 9.5% from 9.4% and a decrease of 225,000 in nonfarm payrolls, an improvement from the 247,000 decline the month prior. "Tomorrow's numbers will just lend more credence to the fact that we are experiencing a recovery, but where the jobs are not forthcoming," says Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist for Prudential Annuities, adding that this is not unusual.

Manchester VFW posts fights to survive without poker cash
Many of the patrons at the post's canteen have been Vietnam War veterans, as was the previous commander, Gary Reid.
Haugh sought a refund of the fees, and that's how the issue came before the aldermen's Committee on Administration on Monday.
"I'm a veteran, and I sympathize," Ward 7 Alderman William Shea said. "The problem is, if we do it for you, we have to do it for someone else."
"He's trying to keep the post alive," Alderman-At-Large Dan O'Neil said. "We have some kind of obligation to the vets."
"I assumed he wanted to run things the way they always did," he said.
Reid said the video poker machines had been there for decades and were a source of revenue that funded the wider mission of the VFW in assisting veterans.
How much money?
Just how much revenue was generated by the machines is not clear. Gambling, of course, is illegal in the state, and Reid and others were hazy about how any winnings from the machines were redeemed.
This is part of the reason Haugh sought to remove the machines, which are now off the premises.
A new generation
In targeting the machines, Haugh's larger goal is to make the atmosphere at the post's canteen more accommodating to a new generation of veterans.
Haugh retired from the Army as a sergeant in the late 1980s. He joined the VFW when he was living in Thailand, where he lived for nine years with his wife.
"We wiped the cigarette stains from the walls, pulled money out of our pockets to change the stained ceiling tiles," he said, adding, "We've got a lot more work to do."
"The guy before me ran it into the ground," he said.
As for the new leadership of the post, Reid said he's happy to let it be someone else's responsibility.

Does anyone have any suggestions about the best way(s) to introduce new players to Arkham Horror?
I have a friend who is keen on giving AH a try, but I'm unsure how to handle the first game. My natural inclination is to micro-manage the whole thing while showing them how things work. But I suspect that would spoil the 'n00b experience' thing. But it's either that or let them blunder around the board waiting for the AO to wake up.
Any tips?

35V x 2 - 3.5A Toroidal Transformer
Toroidal transformers offer many advantages over standard laminated types; giving quiet efficient operation with very low stray magnetic fields. Their reduced size and weight provide simplified design in any application. At the heart of these transformers is a highly efficient doughnut shaped core which provides size and weight reduction of up to 50% over laminated iron cores, allowing flexibility and ease of mounting.
Since toroidal cores are constructed of a continuously wound wire, they have a drastically reduced air gap. The windings are also wrapped over the entire core allowing the transformer to operate at a much higher flux density.
