U.S. Daily Weather Maps
Publication History
The U.S. Signal Office began publishing weather maps as the War Department Maps on Jan. 1, 1871. When the meteorological activities of the Signal Corps were transferred to the newly-created Weather Bureau in 1891, the title of the weather map changed to the Department of Agriculture Weather Map. In 1913, the title became simply Daily Weather Map. In 1969, the Weather Bureau began publishing a weekly compilation of daily maps with the title Daily Weather Maps (Weekly series).
Scope of Coverage
This site provides access to historical U.S. daily weather maps from 1871 through 2002. To see weather maps for 2003 - present go to: http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/dwm/dwm.shtml
The earliest weather maps featured only a map of the continental U.S. with the day's air temperature, barometric pressure, wind velocity and direction, and a general indication of the weather for various cities around the country plotted directly on the map.
Within a short time the Signal Office added a table showing the change in barometric pressure during the most recent 8 hours, the temperature change within the most recent 24 hours, relative humidity, and total precipitation within the most recent 24 hours. The Signal Office also added a general discussion of synoptic weather features and forecast, and then isobars and isotherms, on the maps. By the end of 1872 the map had acquired the format it would use for the rest of its run.
The daily weather maps for the period January 1 - August 6, 1914, also include a Northern Hemisphere map with data table.

United Airlines has announced plans to install slimmer seats to fit more passengers.
Flying coach is rarely comfortable.
But for coach passengers on United Airlines it's going to be even more cramped.
The airline says it's going to retrofit 152 of its planes with slim line seats which will reduce the seat size from 18 inches to 17 inches.
United says the change will allow for six extra seats in the cabin. The airline says passengers shouldn't notice the change especially since leg room won't be affected. The airline also plans to equip its entire fleet with Wi-Fi capabilities by 2015.
The seat changes are expected in the next year.
Other major airlines have also announced plans to install slimmer seats to fit more passengers on board.

By Sex and Porn Addict Coach, Craig Perra, J.D.*, CLC
Official Recovery Coach for Feed the Right Wolf
In this blog I want to teach you about the power of imagery and how we can use it to drive profound change. We are going to do some visualization to put your struggle in perspective and quickly empower you to take action. I heard this song the other day by a band called Sabatron. According to Wikipedia, "the band's main lyrical themes are based on war and historical battles." Sabatron is a heavy metal band. The song I heard is called Ghost Division – it's a song about a military attack and soldiers charging into battle.
It's powerful and I want you to listen to the words and try to connect with the feeling of the song. Imagine the battle.
Now close your eyes . . . (seriously do it) and imagine a soldier charging into battle while bullets buzz past his head and shells are exploding meters away, stepping over dead and wounded soldiers. Can you even fathom the courage it takes to do that?
That my friend is amazing power and strength and YOU have it inside you. The soldier moves forward. He continues the attack. And that's what you must do.
The battle has begun men – it's the battle to reclaim our manhood. A manhood you surrendered to a billion dollar industry hell bent on taking your sex from you for profit, rendering you limp in the process.
Let me put this in perspective. We are MEN! We conquered civilizations, put men on the moon, painted the Sistine Chapel, and you mean to tell me that you can't stop looking at porn? That you are content being rendered limp by pixels. No no no no!
Not on my watch my brothers!!!!
If for one second you don't understand that this a battle for your life . . . that YOU are battling for your life – then you better take a long hard look in the mirror and ask yourself if you are a slave.
If you are do something about it. And you have, that's why you are here. I want you to honor that. If you are reading this blog it means that you have made a powerful choice. Embrace your power of choice.
Either you are a slave or you are not a slave and I know that you know what I mean. You can't have both and you know it . . . and I know it. That's why you are reading this post and it's a good start but you must do more.
Many of you are reading this post waiting for someone else, some other thing, an outside universal force to bump you just enough to ignite that incredible power that you already know is lurking inside you. Let this be that bump. Let reclaiming your manhood be that spark that ignites a inferno of power.
Watch the video and even if you don't like metal it still may be inspiring.
Now take action! Do something, Anything: run, do 10 pushups, buy a book to learn about how #porn is screwing up your head in a big way. Go to our website, download the free 23 Chapter Course that our incredible founder Alex wrote – it's what saved him and I think it's awesome.
Porn makes men limp brothers . . . limp men can't charge into battle.
The war for your great life has begun. You choose.
Here's the video that inspired this post. Now start kicking ass!!!! NOW!

Just when you think this country's obesity problem can't get any worse: new numbers are out showing it is.
According to a new analysis of CDC numbers by the trust for america's health, more than half the people in 39-states will be obese by the year 2030.
2-thirds of americans are already overweight or obese; and the analysis shows that unless something changes, every state in the country will have an obesity rate above 44-percent in less than 20-years.
NBC's Erka Edwards reports on what could be a contributing factor to all this.
canned goods are often goto foods for busy parents trying to give a healthy meal on the table quickly. but a chemical use to prevent corosion in the lining of canned goods and some plastics, called bpa, may be making children fat.
Dr. Leonardo Trasande, NYU school of medicine: "we were struck by the fact that, the association was so strong."
Dr. Leonardo Trasande of the ny school of medicine, led a study that found kids with the highest concentration of bps in their systems were twice as likely to be obese.
the effect was found only in white children and teens.
Dr. Leonardo Trasande, NYU school of medicine: "childhood obesity is definately, mostly the product of unhealthy diet and poor physical activity, but increasingly we're understanding that environmental chemicals also play a role."
the reports indicates obesity is a problem in every single state, though some communities are starting to take control of the issue by transforming school lunches, and building safe family friendly parks and other open spaces.

The Situation: I've Kissed More Girls Than I Can Count
The Situation isn't the kind of guy who kisses and tells.
During an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show (airing Monday, February 21), the 53-year-old talk show host tries to get the Jersey Shore star to open up about his frequent hookups.

The 21-man squad included seven internationals - two English, two Irish, two Scottish and one Welsh - and was captained by London clergyman the Rev Matt hew Mullineux. The Blackheath player - one of only two British Isles skippers never to be capped by their country - both arranged and managed the tour, but dropped himself after the first Test defeat, with Charles Adamson coming in at outside half and England forward Frank Stout taking over the captaincy.
Whereas in 1896 it had been South Africa who had grown in strength as the Test series progressed, three years later it was the tourists who proved the late developers. They went into the first international at the Sydney Cricket Ground with just three games under their belt and lost 13-3 to two converted tries in the last seven minutes.
When Mullineux's men lost to Queensland a week later, the Australian public's opinion of the visitors fell further still. However, with the tourists beginning to develop some cohesion, and the skills of legendary Welsh centre Gwyn Nicholls dazzling opponents and spectators alike, they began to revive their reputation and lost only once more over the final 15 contests of the 21 match schedule.
Mullineux's decision to step down in favour of Adamson proved crucial, as the Durham player scored two tries and kicked four conversions and a penalty in the last three Tests. Powered by a rejuvenated forward pack, the tourists squared the series with an 11-0 win in Brisbane and then squeezed home 11-10 on their return to Sydney.
The tourists confirmed their domination in the final rubber, mastering muddy, windswept conditions to win 13-0, with Nicholls proving just as dangerous in the wet as in the dry.

I attended the "special" Addison County Regional Planning Commission meeting about whether or not the commission should still support the Addison "Natural" Gas Project, in light of the most recent cost estimate increase. I heard some interesting comments as reported by Mr. Flowers in a recent Addison Independent article.
The full text of this article is only available to online subscribers.

A coalition of social and environmental activist groups on Tuesday conducted a coordinated series of separate protests against fracked natural gas across the Champlain Valley. Nine people were arrested.
In Williston, members of the activist group Rising Tide Vermont handcuffed themselves to construction equipment at 7:30 a.m. to disrupt construction of the Vermont Gas pipeline extension into Addison County. Four people were arrested.
On behalf of Agri-Mark, Inc., I would like to express our very strong, continued support for the extension of the natural gas pipeline from Chittenden County to Middlebury.
SOUTH BURLINGTON — The Vermont Gas Board of Directors announced on Tuesday that Donald Gilbert will be retiring at the end of the year and Donald J. Rendall will become the new president and CEO of Vermont Gas, effective Jan. 1, 2015.
Gilbert, a Hinesburg resident, has led Vermont Gas for more than 13 years.
MONTPELIER — The Public Service Board on Friday decided not to reopen the Certificate of Public Good it issued Phase I of the Addison Rutland Natural Gas Project, allowing construction of the pipeline from Colchester to Middlebury and Vergennes to continue.
The state utilities regulator also detailed an increased burden on Vermont Gas Systems ratepayers, who will ultimately pay for the pipeline project.
This is a reply to the "commentary" by Sens. Kevin Mullin and Peg Flory, both Republicans representing Rutland County, on the Vermont Gas Systems/International Paper proposed pipeline project called "Phase 2" that appeared in the July 21 edition of the Addison Independent.
To start let me make three things clear:
• The Town of Cornwall does not oppose getting natural gas to Rutland.
SOUTH BURLINGTON — A handful of Addison County residents staged a protest at the headquarters of Vermont Gas Systems this past Wednesday afternoon, an act they said was in retaliation for trespassing by the company on their land. South Burlington police arrested one protester, Jane Palmer of Monkton, after she refused to leave the premises at the close of business.
This week's writer is Kim Greenwood, the Vermont Natural Resources Council's water program director/staff scientist.
The Vermont Gas Systems' proposal to build a gas pipeline in Chittenden and Addison counties has come under criticism, and rightly so, for a variety of reasons.
The June 26 edition of the Addison Independent featured a story on proposed changes to the Middlebury Town Plan by the Middlebury Planning Commission. The report claimed that the changes were necessary to "clarify language that might have been ambiguous." Not that they were ambiguous, but might be.
MIDDLEBURY — At their meeting on Tuesday, the Middlebury selectboard reviewed an amended memorandum of agreement between the town and Vermont Gas related to the company's proposed Phase II pipeline. That pipeline would extend from Middlebury to the International Paper mill in Ticonderoga, N.Y.

The world (including Anonymous) disagrees with your hateful messages, but you have the right to voice them. This does not mean you can jump on Anonymous for attention."
Here was Roper's response to the attack, via Twitter.

SEP 11.0 and 12.0 SBE do not update IPS.
Full Title: Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 and 12.0 Small Business Edition clients do not update Intrusion Prevention Signatures.
1. Symantec shipped seven IPS definition updates between September 5 and September 13, 2012.
2. Explanation published 2012-09-18! TECH 196871.
I have 2 clients that would not update. By chance i found that out by logging in on the server console because of other - unrelated?- problems:
which were reported by my notfication system on the evening of Sept 20th and reviewed my me Sept 21st 09:30AM (GMT+1).
A: (Java Heap Error/GC Overhead)
B: Symsvc service stopped
I restarted Symsvc successfully, read about "A" in outdated posts in Forums on 11.X and 12.1 and decided to wait.
Then I went to the problem of "Security Status - ATTENTION NEEDED". Tried to search intelligently on Google/Symantec, but found only complicated possible solutions, again referring to 11.X or 12.1, not 12.0.X.
Tried some simple remedies like Local LiveUpdate, Repair on client, LiveUpdate from Management Console. No dice.
3. Went home in frustration, logged in to the "improved" Symantec Connect, and Viola:-), found the above.
Surprise! Then to lean back and see what happens next....
-Delay between problem and information: 6 days or more
-No report in notification system on outdated clients IPS (Have I missed something?)
-We are set up to receive important notices on 12.0, not a whisker.

Zip your files with PeaZip
Archiving (compressing) and extracting files or folders is a common but unavoidable factor for any computer user. Most of today's Operating Systems supports some file archiving file formats by default. Windows supports Zip files and GNU/Linux distributions supports 7z, TAR, etc. by default. But when it comes to proprietary archive file formats, the user need a separate application installed, like for RAR files we need WinRAR and which is a paid and proprietary software. There are lots of free archiving software too and some of them open source. One of them is PeaZip. Lets take a look on that piece of Cakes.
PeaZip is a free and open source file and archive manager. It is an alternative to paid and proprietary tools like WinZip and WinRAR. PeaZip is cross platform, available for Windows and GNU/Linux operating systems and also as portable software. It supports its native PEA archive format and other mainstream formats like ZIP, RAR, 7z, SFX, TAR etc. It can extract data from around 129 file extensions and it's available in 27 languages. By default PeaZip gets open in English but 26 more languages are available in Options-> Localization. It could be handy if you are not native English speaker or user.
Basic Features
PeaZip used for archiving (compressing) and extracting multiple archived files at once within a GUI front-end. Its user interface makes it very easy to browse and add, files and folders to create compressed archive files.
Other notable features are:
- Archive conversion: Convert one archive file into another one without extracting it.
- Strong Archive Encryption: Supports strong encryption method for secured privacy.
- Creating Self-Extracting Archives (SFX): Create archive files which can be extract without any archive manager.
- Split/Join files (File Span): Split files into parts and join them again as a single file.
- Secure file deletion: Delete file securely with 100% disk space recovery.
- Adding file in existing archive: Add files and folders in an existing archive files.
- Robust file copy
- Byte-to-Byte file comparison
- Check-sum and hash files
- System benchmarking
- Random passwords
- Key-files generation
In addition, the program's user interface including icons and color scheme (program theme) can be customized. As others PeaZip also have context menu integration, but more than that you can find more options in Send to menu too. And these context and Send to menu can easily customized from Options->System Integration.
A small trick: If you feel "Send to" menu is got filled with PeaZip's options then this could be useful for you.
Open "C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\SendTo" in Computer, create a folder named "PeaZip" and move all PeaZip related shortcut files in this folder.
Now you can see all PeaZip options as sub-option in "Send to" menu.
Supporting file formats
As already told above PeaZip supports its own native PEA archive file format, acronym for Pack EncryptAuthenticate. It is a general purpose archiving format for file compression and multiple volume output. The PEA format is designed to primarily focus on flexible security, performing strong authenticated encryption that provides both privacy and authentication of the data. It perform redundant integrity checks on both input objects and output volume. Apart from this PEA is an open source and free file archive format licensed under GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPLv3).
PeaZip can also create and extract ZIP, 7Z, TAR, FreeArc's ARC/WRC, SFX, BZ2, GZ, PAQ/LPAQ/ZPAQ, QUAD/BALZ, Split, UPX archive file formats.
It can read and extract 129 file extensions including:
- Archive files: RAR, ISO, GZIP, BZIP2
- Windows installation and system files: EXE, DLL, SYS, MSI, CAB
- Mac OS installation file: DMG
- GNU/Linux installation files: DEB, RPM, TAR.GZ
- MS Office files: DOC, DOT, XLS, XLT, PPT, PPS, POT, DOCX, DOTX, XLSX, XLTX
- Adobe Flash animation and video files: SWF & FLV
- Java file: JAR
- Firefox extenstion file XPI
- And much much more…
PAQ and LPAQ formats are for the cutting edge compression technology providing high compression ratio than usual compression. But they are not recommended for general purpose use due to high memory consumption and low in speed.
- PeaZip is focused on security and supports multiple strong encryption standards.
- It has secure deletion feature so you can force to delete files with 100% space recovery to free up the disk space as soon as file deleted.
- Files can be archived with passwords with multiple strong encryption standards using authentication via password and keyfile for increased security.
- You can bring PeaZip with you and rely on it on multiple platforms.
- Use it on all Windows versions and GNU/Linux distributions with the same features and look and feel.
- It is a desktop neutral application.
- Also available as standalone portable application. So you can carry out it in USB Flash Disk and other portable devices without any installation.
Free as in freedom
PeaZip is a freeware. Free of charge for any personal and corporate use. It is also free as in freedom since it's released under GNU Lesser General Public License version 3.0 (LGPLv3) and it contains exclusively Open Source components released under OSI approved licenses. More features and options are awaiting for you in PeaZip. To experience those features go to www.peazip.org and download it for free.

More Nonsense About the Public Opinion
March 10, 2010
In the Financial Times today, S. Ward Casscells, a former Assistant Secretary of Defense in George W. Bush's sterling administration, and pollster John Zogby have an op-ed calling for Congress to start over and draft a bipartisan health care bill. "It is possible a Republican leader could yet emerge and resolve the healthcare impasse," they intone. And oh yes, it is possible, too, that aliens could land is Oshkosh and take over city hall. But let that silliness pass. I am more concerned about the continuing B.S.

Since the new year has started, IT companies have begun outlining what they expect from 2013, even though most of them haven't tallied their sales for 2012.
ASUS and Gigabyte have shown a distinct lack of excitement over what 2013 is likely to mean for them.
According to "industry sources" that shall remain anonymous, the two IT players think they will ship around the same number of motherboards this year as the last.
ASUS expects a slight drop, to 21.5-22 million (2012 brought 22-22.2 million), which Gigabyte sees a positive evolution, from 19 to 20 million.
Their combined shipments could go down 3-5% in 2013, due to the general slowdown on the PC market.
For those unaware, ASUS and Gigabyte are seen as the world' top two motherboard makers in some circles, in no small part due to the fierce competition in terms of price/performance, especially in China.
They are a bit ahead of some, and leagues ahead of others. Intel, for instance, doesn't even hold a candle to these two as far as shipments go.
Then again, that much would have been easy enough to guess from what happened just a short time ago, or what rumors say happened.
For those still unaware, Intel has decided to quit the motherboard business altogether and leave the segment to those with a shining history in it.
It won't happen right away, but its models will be phased out over the next several months. ASUS and Gigabyte, along with every other mainboard maker left (ASRock, EVGA, etc.) will get to pick up the slack, which can only help their finances.
Moving forward, China will continue to be one of, if not the most important market. It may not be an emerging market anymore, but it still has plenty of potential customers. It is a reason the PC industry hasn't declined faster.

Samsung woos iPhone owners with one-month, $1 Galaxy trial
It's a smart move by Samsung: Even if few iPhone owners actually make the switch, the company will get valuable feedback through a pair of required surveys.

Apple has a new idea to keep data safe for those moments when an iPhone can't connect to iCloud.
With iOS 9 Apple is making a direct play for Android users with an app to help them migrate their data and apps to the iPhone.
Newly released data suggests that the Apple Watch might be delivering some big benefits for the iOS ecosystem. Not only are app crash rates low, but the device also seems to be helping to drive iPhone hardware and software upgrades.
The iPhone and iPad are wildly popular devices, but if you're one of those people who likes to carry a lot of data with them, you've probably at one time or another hit a storage limit. Here's how you can add more storage to your iPhone or iPad quickly and easily - no jailbreaking or cracking your device open required.
Planning to sell or give away your old iPhone or iPad? Then you'll need to wipe your data off it securely. Here's how to do it without losing any data.
Google's upcoming Android L operating system will offer default data encryption, mirroring the functionality in Apple's iOS 8 and the new iPhone 6 range.
The iPhone and iPad maker is encrypting its services, end-to-end, in a bid to prevent law enforcement (even with a search warrant) from accessing your device data.
For the first time you can access your Google Analytics data from your iPhone. The new mobile apps allows you to monitor your online business with real-time reports in the palm of your hand.
iPhone maker dismisses suggestions that the "frequent locations" function on the smartphone can monitor the location of the user's movements, noting that personal data is encrypted and stored locally on the device.
Lost some important data on your iPhone, iPad or Android device? Here are some tools that might be able to help you get it back.
T-Mobile continues to set the bar for US wireless carriers with two new initiatives launching soon.
By 2020, the Asian nation will produce data totaling 377 exabytes, doubling in volume every two years and growing eight-fold from just 46 exabytes in 2013.
SurveyMonkey has listened to customer feedback and has launched its Enterprise product designed to allow businesses to collate data from multiple accounts, and will be opening an office in Sydney to provide ground support.
iPhone users are vulnerable to a lock-screen flaw that allows a hands-on hacker to gain full access to a user's contacts list.
Divide creates a completely separate container for your Exchange account on your iPhone or iPad so that corporate email, calendars, and contacts don't mingle with your personal data.
FreedomPop also released a new iOS app that provides free calls, texts, and voicemail on iOS devices, but is free really free?
Apple's Q2 2014 earnings are out, and the data provided gives us an insight into how well the company performed over the last quarter relative to historical data. iPhone sales are strong, but iPad sales show a worrying fall.
iPhone 5s owner? Now might be a time to jump to a high-end data plan.
Before you hand over your old iPhone to someone else to enjoy, you want to make sure that all your data has been securely erased.

ZURICH: European industrial production declined in December led by a slump in Germany, adding to signs the region may have slipped into its second recession in three years.
Production in the 17-nation euro area fell 1.1 per cent from November, when it remained unchanged, the European Union's statistics office in Luxembourg said on Tuesday. Economists had forecast a drop of 1.2 per cent, the median of 36 estimates in a Bloomberg News survey showed. From a year earlier, production decreased two per cent.
The region's economy probably failed to grow in the fourth quarter as governments toughened austerity measures, undermining spending and hiring, just as global exports weakened.
While industrial orders dropped in November and unemployment held at the highest in more than a decade in December, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said on Feb. 9 that he sees "tentative signs" of economic stabilisation.
"The euro-region economy probably slipped into contraction in the fourth quarter of 2011 and may continue to shrink through the first half of 2012," said Andreas Scheuerle, an economist at Dekabank in Frankfurt. "The fiscal crisis still has the potential to hurt the economy and there are enormous risks."
Gross domestic product probably dropped 0.4 per cent in the three months through December after rising just 0.1 per cent in the previous three months, according to the median estimate of economists in a Bloomberg survey. That would be the region's first quarterly contraction in 2 1/2 years. The statistics office will release the GDP figures tomorrow.
In Germany, Europe's largest economy which has driven the region's economic expansion, output slumped 2.7 per cent from November, when it fell 0.3 per cent, Tuesday's report showed. Greece and France reported declines of 2.4 per cent and 1.3 per cent in the month, respectively, with Portugal's output slumping 1.6 per cent. In Ireland, production rose 2.5 per cent.
With economies cooling across the region and export orders weakening, companies have been forced to lower costs to help protect earnings. Employers around the globe are cutting jobs more than three times faster than in 2011, Bloomberg data show.
HeidelbergCement AG, the world's third-largest maker of cement, on February 9 reported a gain in fourth-quarter profit after the Heidelberg, Germany-based company cut costs and boosted output in faster-growing emerging countries.
The ECB has cut borrowing costs, purchased government bonds and extended provisions of unlimited cash to banks to help fight the region's fiscal crisis. Draghi said on February 9, when keeping the benchmark interest rate at a record low of 1 percent, that the economic outlook is due to "high uncertainty and downside risks," partly following the turmoil.
European finance ministers meeting in Brussels the same day held back a rescue package for Greece, saying the nation needs to first implement the latest round of austerity measures. The finance chiefs will convene again in Brussels on Wednesday for another extraordinary meeting on Greece after the Greek parliament backed austerity measures they demanded for the financial lifeline.

But that is about to change. Microsoft has announced that they will cease maintaining the key retrieval service by the end of August.
As a result, for all the music purchased on the MSN Music store it will become impossible to retrieve your keys. If the music is transferred to another device, it can never be unlocked again � at least not in a legal way � rendering that purchase a total loss to that person. For those that have libraries of music purchased through the MSN store, they will be locked in to that specific hardware for as long as they want to use those files.
Ultimately, this serves as a reminder of what DRM really is: A way for companies to control your use of their content. Rather than purchasing, you are renting.

I'm just curious if people use the Food Diary & if so do you prefer writing it down or an online version?
Do you have a better loss when you write it down?
I'm just curious if people use the Food Diary & if so do you prefer writing it down or an online version?
Do you have a better loss when you write it down?
I definitely have better losses when I keep some sort of diary. I don't like the SW ones though - the spaces are too small and I like to record what I have for each meal, rather than just a list of foods, so I have a pretty notebook that I use. I've even stuck a chart in the front to track my progress (sad I know!!). At the moment I'm keeping a food diary on here as well, but that is a new thing.
I use a diary religiously. I use the SW sheets that you get given in class, tried using my own book once but I was rubbish at filling it in. Not sure why but I seem to be able to stick to filling in the sheets.
I hate the online SW diary, it's just too clunky and not user friendly at all. I wish SW would invest a bit more in their online technology. In this day and age of smartphones it should be a top priority for them to make a fully functional app that includes an easy to use diary, syn search and weight loss tracker. I used to use Myfitnesspal to log my food as this is such a great little app but I don't anymore as I get too focused on the calories. Why can't SW come up with something similar.
I think while the SW plan is great, the website is pretty poor overall - especially compared to WW and some others (e.g. Nutracheck, which has a very user friendly diary app). they are also quite behind the times in not having an official forum. This place is great, of course, but I'm surprised in this day and age SW doesn't offer, and moderate, their own as other diet clubs do.
I really need to start as I think it would give me a better idea of where I am going wrong if I have a bad week
I couldn't get used to the online diary thing at all. I like using the sheets you get but I always forget to ask for more & then have nothing. It's almost a case of, if I don't have a diary sheet then I don't write it. I haven't tried keeping my own notebook so maybe that's a possibility.
I tend to lose the sheets that's why I keep a notebook so I can always look back if I had a great week to see what I done differently
I'm writing it all down, I use the slimming world sheets, I find it useful to see the amount of free to superfree foods I'm having as well as keeping track of syns over the whole week, so I can feel happy if I've had a high syn day that I can balance it out over the other days.
I liked the idea our consultant gave us that if you keep the sheets, then if your losses slow down you can go back to a week that you had a really good loss and do it all again.
I am also quite surprised that the slimming world website and app seem quite behind the times and not very user friendly, apart from the syn checker the app is actually quite useless.
yeah I found that too, I do like myfitnesspal but that counts calories and with SW it doesn't work like that so I have my trusted notebook lol
Don't use the app. Just add a link to the mobile site to your iphone desktop. Its so so much better. It looks like and app and functions like one with a full diary and syn search and everything. The app is rubbish. The mobile site is much more user friendly!!
I will need to give that a go
I have a text buddy from my group which I use as a diary, I write down all of todays foods to her in a text and we confirm at the end of the day if stuck to what we said. I think that helps me most!

Ahmed Issa's charismatic personalityand tireless work ethic helped him charter a career that began in 1988, when he left his homeland in Tanzania in search of better opportunities in California. He never imagined those opportunities would take him from being an hourly worker to owning a business and being invited to meetings with US and Tanzanian diplomats.
At 5 p.m., Sept. 16, Issa will host President of the Republic of Tanzania H.E. Dr. Jakaya Kikwete to celebrate the ribbon cutting and opening of the Honorary Tanzanian Consulate office in San Rafael at 4322 Redwood Highway, where Issa operates his moving and storage business. Issa recently was named honorary Consul of Tanzania. While it' a voluntary position, Issa hopes he can help pave the way for new opportunities between the US and his native home of Tanzania.
The event is more than opening the doors. It's also is the unveiling of an advertising campaign that promotes Tanzania tourism and a presentation by Tanzanian government officials, who will discuss investment and business opportunities.
"Very recently, Tanzania has been considered by the US government and governments around the world as a prime location for new and growing businesses," Issa said. "It's freely elected, Democratic Government, has brought stability and growth to the region making it fertile ground for partnerships."
In addition to the Tanzanian president and staff, state and local officials are expected to attend the event, as will representatives from the Embassy of the Republic of Tanzania located in Washington, D.C.
"It's beyond my imagination," Issa said of being named honorary consul. "That just tells you a lot about America, it really is the land of opportunity."
When Issa arrived in the US 25 years ago, he spoke only a little English. He had worked for a man from Saudi Arabia who was impressed with Issa's work ethic and his passion to learn. He encouraged Issa to move to the United States. Issa did just that. He enrolled in College of Marin where he studied business administration and English as a second language. While going to school, he landed a part-time job working in a warehouse for a moving company.
He continued to work up the ladder in the moving company, learned the business and in 1997, he bought his first moving van. He formalized his moving business in 2000, founding Ahmed's Moving Express. Four years later, he bought an office and warehouse in The Vineyard in San Rafael, and later became an interstate agent for Wheaton World Wide Moving, the fourth largest moving company in the US. In 2012, he was named the Wheaton's Top New Agent in the West. In addition to a fleet of moving trucks, Issa owns a 12,000-square-foot warehouse.
"Each step along his path, he was determined to keep pushing forward, to do better," said Wheaton CEO Mark Kirschner. "He quickly went from owning one moving van and doing local moves to owning an entire fleet where he now offers moving services worldwide."
Issa didn't seek out the position. He met a former ambassador to the US, who helped introduce Issa to other diplomats, and recommended him as the only honorary consul to Tanzania on the West Coast.
Monday's event will make it official with the opening of the Tanzanian Consulate.
Opening of Tanzanian Consulate
WHAT: Ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Tanzanian Consulate in San Rafael and unveiling of advertising campaign promoting tourism in Tanzania.
WHEN: 5 p.m. Sept. 16
WHERE: 4322 Redwood Highway in San Rafael
WHO: President of the Republic of Tanzania, H.E. Dr. Jakaya Kikwete, Honorary Consul Ahmed Issa, owner of Ahmed Moving Express in San Rafael, representatives of the Embassy to the Republic of Tanzania and state and local officials.
WHY: In addition to the public celebration, Tanzanian government officials will meet with local government and business leaders about the opportunities for investment and business in Tanzania.

Hey everyone. The Sims 3 just came out today and I was really excited to pick it up and give it a shot. I've only had a chance to play the first 8 hours of the game but I'd like to show you what I was able to get accomplished. This is my first Sims game, so I just jumped right into the game not knowing anything about it and found myself fully immersed right from the start.
The game begins with the creation of your Sim, or Sims. You have the ability to start as a single Sim at any age, or you can form a family right away. What's great with The Sims is there isn't any pre-defined story for you to play. You have total freedom to do whatever you want in this completely open sandbox game. I created several characters, all radically different from each other. My first Sim was a young man on a quest to become the World's Greatest Spy. I bought a plot of land and got to build my house from the ground up. Unfortunately you don't start with much money, and I created a pretty big house so I found myself without any money to furnish it. Woops. Oh well, was beachfront property.
As I played for a few minutes I couldn't resist the urge to restart as two super hot skimpy dressed lesbians. Of course I had to create them. I know I know; I'm a perv. Anyway, one was on a life quest to become a corporate executive while the other lived a dangerous night-life as a local thug. One advantage I found going this route was that the multiple streams of income significantly helped me purchase the things I needed, not to mention the thief went on night missions to steal things around town and sell them to make lots of quick cash!
The Sims 3 has tons of options to customize your characters. You have plenty of careers you can take on, and if you don't like the route your taking, it's as simple as choosing a new career from the local newspaper whenever you want.
The town is rather large and the entire map is loaded upon starting up the game, so you never have to worry about loading screens in the middle of game play.
The character creation options are ridiculous. There really have to be an infinite number of ways you can customize your Sim. I was actually able to create one that looks EXACLTY like me. That's really cool.
Along the same lines, there are equally as many ways that you can customize your Sims home. You can create and expand the walls of your home at any time. If you don't like the paint or wallpaper art provided, simply make your own up all inside the game. After about 8 hours in, this is what I got my Sims house looking like. I probably wasted half of my time simply building and customizing my house.
The game is extremely simple to control. As you drag your mouse across the screen it moves the camera for you and clicking the middle mouse button allows you to rotate it. The mouse cursor will change over any object that you can interact with and simply left clicking it will bring up a list of possible interactions. What is really cool is each character will have different interactions possible based on their personal traits, the time of day or even what kind of mood they are in.
I had a lot of fun interacting with other Sims, especially when I was trying to create a relationship with my couple. After a little fidgeting, I was able to get them to start dating, fall in love, get married, and even get a little nasty.
Presentation (Cut due to lack of footage)
The graphics in The Sims 3 are great. Granted, I have a pretty good gaming PC and a brand new Macbook Pro, so they both ran the game easily averaging over 100 frames per second with all of the bells and whistles turned on. From what I've seen, this game should also run just fine on older machines as well with some of the options turned down.
The music in the game is very pleasing and energetic. There are even options for you to choose which background songs you want to play for you, and you can even change the ringer on your Sim's cell phone.
The Sims have their own language and they are always talking, but you never have any idea what the heck they are saying. You can usually get the idea based on their body language and picture bubbles that appear over their heads.
Obviously since I wanted to recreate my characters right away, you can see how there will be tons of replayablility in the game. There are just so many options on how you can customize your characters and try out different things to see what's going to happen. I found myself unable to put this game down for hours on end. It is very addicting so I can see why it is such a hit! The Sims 3 will be a time consumer and you certainly will get your moneys worth out of this title!

Cadence Expands IP Portfolio With Agreement to Acquire Cosmic Circuits
Cadence Expands IP Portfolio With Agreement to Acquire Cosmic Circuits
* Reuters is not responsible for the content in this press release.
SAN JOSE, CA, Feb 07 (Marketwire) -- Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) -- Cosmic Circuits is a leading IP provider with an extensive silicon-proven analog and mixed signal portfolio -- Provides IP for mobile devices including USB, MIPI, Audio and WIFI at advanced process nodes including 40nm and 28nm -- Top tier customer base has shipped more than 50 million ICs containing Cosmic Circuits IP in 2012 Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS), a leader in global electronic design innovation, today announced an agreement to acquire Cosmic Circuits Private Limited, a leading provider of analog and mixed signal intellectual property (IP) cores. Cosmic Circuits offers silicon-proven IP solutions in connectivity and advanced mixed-signal technologies in the 40nm and 28nm process nodes, with 20nm and FinFET development well underway. The addition of the Cosmic Circuits(TM) product line will broaden the Cadence(R) IP portfolio, strengthening its solutions to address mobile device, cloud/datacenter and "internet of things" market opportunities. Martin Lund, Cadence's senior vice president of R&D for SoC Realization said, "The addition of Cosmic Circuits' stellar technology and talent enhances Cadence's position as a leading provider for analog/mixed-signal IP. The combination of Cadence and Cosmic Circuits will provide customers with high quality IP to accelerate getting products to market." Founded in 2005 and based in Bangalore, India, Cosmic Circuits has been profitable from its first year of operation and has more than 75 customers worldwide.

Ganapathy Subramaniam, CEO of Cosmic Circuits said, "Cosmic Circuits has a strong track record working with leading foundries to qualify and sell silicon-proven IP in advanced nodes. Our focus on low-power mobile and time-to-market critical consumer IP markets will add to Cadence's existing strength in high-speed serial IP for cloud/server applications." As part of this transaction, the IC and Systems business of Cosmic Circuits will be spun off into a separate new company to be owned by certain existing shareholders of Cosmic Circuits. The acquisition is expected to close in 30 to 60 days, and is not expected to have a material impact on Cadence's 2013 results of operations. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

CUPERTINO, Calif. - Feb. 28, 2000 -- Symantec Corp. (Nasdaq: SYMC) today announced WinFax PRO 10.0, the leading software product for sending, receiving, and managing faxes. WinFax PRO 10.0 provides complete fax capabilities to Windows 95/98/NT/2000 PCs, giving small businesses, home offices and mobile workers the most advanced, easy-to-use professional fax software for communicating with clients, partners, and associates. WinFax PRO 10.0 offers high-quality faxes which can be sent to e-mail addresses in a self-viewing format. WinFax PRO also integrates with key business applications and is easy to set up, learn, and use. Together, these capabilities make WinFax PRO 10.0 the most effective tool for managing both sent and received faxes.
"Since its launch in 1990, WinFax PRO has not only been widely regarded as the fax solution of choice for mobile and small-business professionals worldwide, but it also has consistently kept pace with the changing needs of an increasingly sophisticated user community," said Steve Cullen, senior vice president of Symantec's Consumer Products Division. "Like its predecessors, WinFax PRO 10.0 is raising the bar for desktop fax solutions by offering productivity-enhancing features users need to thrive in today's complex and demanding business environment."
WinFax PRO 10.0 includes several new features to help professionals improve productivity and enhance their business image. With WinFax PRO 10.0, users can send a fax to an e-mail address in a self-viewing format and forward a received fax as a self-viewing e-mail attachment. Rather than experience incompatibility issues common with other solutions, recipients of these emails are able to open and view the self-viewing attachments with or without WinFax PRO software installed on their computers. Also, a new feature automatically sends faxes with photo quality images enabling users to place their signature on the cover or body pages of outgoing faxes.
In contrast to the limited flexibility offered by stand-alone fax machines and current online fax services, WinFax PRO 10.0 integrates with today's most popular business applications, enabling small businesses to maximize their computing investment. To ensure that all integration components function on first launch, a new auto configure feature performs an automatic check for all applications that integrate with WinFax PRO 10.0. In addition to continued support of ACT! 4.0/2000 and Outlook 98/2000, WinFax PRO 10.0 integrates with Outlook Express 98/2000 and Goldmine 4.0 and up. WinFax PRO 10.0 provides a link to the Outlook Express contact list within WinFax PRO's send screen for use as a source of fax numbers. Goldmine customers can use their contacts as a phonebook within WinFax PRO 10.0 via a link to the GoldMine contact list within the WinFax PRO send screen.
One of the most unique characteristics of WinFax PRO 10.0 is its intuitive interface, updated to minimize the learning curve for small, growing businesses. In addition to extending support to Windows 2000 environments, WinFax PRO 10.0 features drag-and-drop faxing whereby users simply drag a document to a desktop icon to have it automatically faxed. WinFax PRO 10.0 also includes enhanced dialing rules, which handle multiple, split, and overlaid area codes and enable the configuration of multiple local area codes.
To make it easier for small businesses to maintain clear and accurate communications records, WinFax PRO 10.0 enables users to store faxes in standard Windows folders rather than inside WinFax. A new component works with CallerID and/or CSID to automatically discard unwanted junk faxes. In addition, an innovative and flexible reporting module provides the ability to generate printable reports detailing sent and received faxes based on date range and/or recipient.
WinFax PRO 10.0 is available now for US$119. Users of any version of WinFax may upgrade to WinFax PRO 10.0 for US$69. Customers can purchase WinFax PRO 10.0 at Symantec's online store at www.SymantecStore.com as well as through other retailers.

When we heard that Francis Ford Coppola's gothic mystery movie, 'Twixt,' was going to be interactive (and feature a live performance) at Comic-Con, we expected something along the lines of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show,' with live actors or audience participation.
What we got instead was an extremely disorganized "dress rehearsal" where the brilliant but eccentric director played scenes at random and showed the same footage over and over again in his version of a "live" movie, over which he intoned the word "Nosferatu." (Musician-actor Tom Waits, who narrates the film, wasn't on hand.)
The only enjoyable surprises from this glitchy demonstration came via the audience -- one fan held up a sign asking Val Kilmer, "Will you be my huckleberry?" after thanking him for his work in 'Tombstone.' Now, that was fun. The demonstration, not so much. Where's a moderator when you need one?
The panel began well enough, with Edgar Allan Poe masks on every seat (the character appears in the film to guide a mystery writer played by Kilmer). Those masks ended up being 3D glasses for the one 3D sequence in the footage. Coppola advised us when to put the masks on and that we might want to hang onto them as they'll likely become collectibles, like the programs handed out for 'Apocalypse Now.'
The film focuses on a local sheriff named Bobby Lagrange (Bruce Dern), who suggests that Hal Baltimore (Kilmer) investigate a decades-old mass murder and a wave of wooden-stake murders in the 'Twin Peaks' like small town. He also has his own theory of the murders: A vampire execution machine. And he's got a working model of it -- in which a doll gets skewered -- that he happily demonstrates to Hal. Elle Fanning will also star in the film (according to EW, she is part of one of the murders Kilmer is investigating).
Performance artist and musician Dan Deacon live-scored the randomly selected scenes and provided some welcome levity to the chaos. After the first glitch, in which nothing appeared on the big screen, Deacon joked, "The new age of cinema has begun!" He also urged the audience to "turn this into the first Edgar Allan Poe dance party" by putting on their Poe masks and dancing.
"Coppola is trying to capture something that's genuine and exciting about entertainment," noted Kilmer. The director himself explained that he's trying to capture the excitement audiences have on opening night of a movie: "There is a yearning for a little bit more of the live to be put back [into films]."
A build-your-own flick that would change depending on the audience seems interesting, but they've got a helluva lot of kinks to work out before they roll out a planned multi-city tour.

|Difference in urinary stone components between obese and non-obese patients.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21161648 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|The prevalence and incidence of urinary stone disease have been reported to be associated with body weight and body mass index (BMI). The aim of the study was to determine the difference in stone components among different BMI groups in patients with urolithiasis. Between Dec 2005 and Jan 2008, 907 urinary calculi were collected and analyzed by infrared spectroscopy. Most of the stones had been passed spontaneously, and some were collected during surgical manipulations. The data on patients' gender, age, BMI at diagnosis, and stone composition were collected. The patients were classified as normal weight (18.5≤ BMI <24), overweight (24≤ BMI <27), or obese (BMI ≥27). Of the 907 patients with urinary stone disease, 27.7% had normal weight, 33.5% were overweight, and 38.8% were obese. The prevalence of calcium oxalate stones in the normal weight, overweight, and obese groups were 23.1, 30.6, and 34.9%, respectively (P = 0.002), and the prevalence of uric acid stones in the different groups was 2.8, 7.2, and 7.7%, respectively (P = 0.002). The prevalence of calcium oxalate and uric acid stones, but not that of calcium phosphate stones, increased with body size. There was a significant correlation between BMI and uric acid stones in the overweight and obesity groups, with odds ratios of 3.28 and 4.35, respectively. The prevalence and incidence of urinary stone disease were found to be associated with BMI. The percentage of uric acid and calcium oxalate stones was higher in obese than in non-obese patients. There was no apparent difference in the prevalence of calcium phosphate stones between obese and non-obese patients.

Ducks defeat Cal Golden Bears in the 5th with mercy rule, 15-3
EUGENE, Ore. - The Oregon Ducks stomped the California Golden Bears 15-3 in the second game of the three-game series, scoring an unheard of 15 runs in one inning. The players wore pink uniforms for the "Strike Out Cancer" breast cancer awareness game.
The game ended, yet again, in five innings. This game marks the fourth consecutive game the Ducks have eight run-ruled their opponent.
"I don't think I've seen 15 runs in an inning before," said Head Coach Mike White. "They're doing a good job right now of seeing the ball and just keeping it rolling."
The California Golden Bears started the game off on top, scoring two runs in the top of the third making the score 2-0. The Ducks did not wait to fight back offensively. They crushed the ball one batter after the next, with two homeruns by Koral Costa and Janelle Lindvall, as well as a grand slam by Sammie Puentes in the bottom of the fourth.
"I was just looking for a pitch to handle," said Costa. "We're good at keeping the momentum going."
"I was just thinking base hit, keeping it simple—I was not thinking I was going to hit a homerun at all," said Puentes. "It was in the strike zone, and I hit it. Once I saw it go over the fence, I was really happy."
Oregon Ducks pitcher Karissa Hovinga pitched the whole game and got three strikeouts. "We had a good pitching performance by Karissa," said White.
The Ducks will face the California Golden Bears Saturday at 12pm on Howe Field for the third and final game of the series.
