"I was a little nervous that the picture quality would be poor since it is a decent sized pic, and you can't really tell how it will look from the previews. However, the picture and the invites came out perfectly! Our designer was extremely fast and got back to us within 12 hours every time until we were 100% happy with the preview. We added "Together with their families" above our names on the right page and it was perfect! Very happy!"
"We are so happy with how our wedding invitations turned out! I can't believe how much we love them. The colors are vibrant and elegant and are perfect for our Dallas rooftop wedding. I give this product 5 stars for sure and nothing less."
"We loved these invitations. The card was nice thick quality but didn't go over the weight to use a normal stamp (Canadian stamp). The picture was excellent quality. The editor did a great job to unify the font (although did make a grammatical error but we caught it on review)."
"Could not be happier with this product or the service I received during the ordering and review process. We added multiple customized features, which were all implemented beautifully. The picture we chose printed clear and consistently."
"I have recently ordered this in the gold text with the white envelopes. Quality of paper, text and colours were brilliant, clear resolution and of fine quality. All personal design requests that i had made were dealt with in no time, quick, friendly helpful service. All ordered online, did not have to telephone or get in contact with anyone, was a simple and easy process overall. Delivery of this item was much faster than i had anticipated, as it was an international delivery it was delivered within 2 working days, which i am very pleased with as i was told it would take up to 5-11 days. Very pleased with this product and with Wedding Paper Divas, especially as this was my first time coming across this website and purchasing from here. i will most definitely recommend this card for someone who is looking for a simple yet elegant wedding invitation. I will also be ordering from Wedding Paper Divas again as i am really impressed with the service, quality and range of choice."

As I said before, I was gonna get this thing going and keep it up to date. I don't think CrimsonKain is doing it anymore but a ton of credit goes to him. I will do my best to keep this as up to date as possible. Please let me know of any that do not exist anymore or any that are in need of an update. Also added a bit of color for ease of readability.

Founder: Freebytes
Contacts: Shawnhollern, Paperstarz
Minimum Level: 60

Additional Notes: This linkshell uses a Karma based system. Using the Latent Effect web site, players can donate Karma to each other. Each player starts with 5 Karma points. If you are helped by another linkshell member, you give them Karma. If you help another linkshell member, they give you Karma in return. If you have a lot of Karma, you get a lot of help. If you have no Karma, you get no help. The Karma system was developed to prevent players from jumping into a linkshell to get help then leaving only to return when they need help again. Using this system, all actions are traced, and if you are more helpful, it is easily apparent and quantified for all other members to see. Please see the web site for more details.

Grow Your Own: Herbsby Dana Angelo White in In Season, June 2, 2010
They're just tiny sprouts right now, but in a few weeks the herbs in my garden will be flourishing. Growing your own herbs is easy, and you don' t need loads of space to do it. Start them now and enjoy them all summer long! Here are some tips to get you started.
Herbal Options
Over the years I've grown everything from spearmint to lemon verbena. This year I'm starting with basil, parsley, thyme, oregano, garlic chives and rosemary. I might plant some quick-growing cilantro later in the season when my newly planted tomatillos and chili peppers are a little further along. I can taste the homemade salsa now!
Grow whatever kinds of herbs you'll use the most — you'll save money and time if you can skip a trip to the market every time you need a sprig of fresh thyme or rosemary. Not sure where to start? Take a trip to your local herb farm or garden center and see what appeals to you. Most herbs will be available from seeds or small starter plants. To grow either one, you just need some potting soil, water, and a sunny spot. Annual plants like parsley and cilantro will last for one year, while perennials like rosemary and oregano can last several years – my oregano plant is 3 years old! Bring perennials inside for the winter months, then replant them outside in the spring.
Location, Location
If you have an outdoor garden, plant your herbs near low-lying plants so they'll get plenty of sunlight throughout the summer months. Think about what else you are planting and make sure tall plants like sweet corn, bean stalks or raspberry bushes won't end up casting shadows over the herbs when they're full grown.
My garden is a collection of pots and whiskey barrels on the back deck. We tuck basil plants in with the tomatoes, then use smaller pots for plants like thyme that tend to grow flat along the soil. If outdoor space is even tighter (or nonexistent), a sunny windowsill is perfect for a small-scale herb garden.
Tips for Getting Started
- Decide if you want to use seeds or smaller starter plants; seeds are cheaper but small plants will be full-grown faster.
- Start modestly –- pick three or four of the herbs you'll use the most. Starting with too many in the beginning can be overwhelming, and you may end up with more herbs than you need.
- One plant of each herb is all you need –- they might look small in the beginning but they'll grow quickly.
- Once your plants mature trim frequently — they'll grow back faster.
- As your herbs grow, keep an eye out for bugs and critters that want to eat them. If you spot squatters, spray plants with homemade organic insecticide: a few drops of dish soap mixed with water.
Uses for Fresh Herbs
You can make just about anything more flavorful with herbs. Add basil or parsley to pasta, chicken salad or stir-fry, mint in salad mixes and drinks, and rosemary for grilling or roasting potatoes. Make infused oils, pesto, dips, hummus and salad dressings.
After picking, store homegrown herbs by wrapping in paper towels and placing in a plastic bag in the fridge for up to 2 weeks; wash and dry well when ready to use. To freeze, rinse and dry very well, then store whole or chopped in a freezer-safe bag for up to 6 months. For best results, add frozen herbs directly to soups, sauces or other cooked dishes.
Recipes to Try:
- Sun-Dried Tomato and Goat Cheese Skewers
- Green Herb Dip
- Video: Easy Green Herb Hummus
- Summer Solstice Sake Sparklers
- Blueberry, Ginger Mojito Pitchers
- Tomato-Basil Pizza
- Garlic Basil Shrimp
- Roasted Zucchini with Fresh Thyme
- Foccacia with Rosemary and Grapes
- Fresh Mushroom and Parsley Salad
TELL US: What's in your herb garden?

Beauty Road Test: Curel Hand & Cuticle Therapy and Curel Foot Therapy
If you've been looking for lotions to save your hands and feet, Curel's your answer.
-PJ Gach
Bettys, if you're like me, you're constantly using your hands: cleaning, dusting, working out and just plain running around can make your poor mitts look like you've crawled through the desert. You, like me, have probably tried so many different hand creams you could probably open your own store.
I don't know how badly you mistreat your feet. I am brutal with mine. I am constantly wearing extremely high heels and then I walk (a lot) in them. While I like to call my feet, New York City Feet, because I walk constantly, the truth is, I beat them up. And after this weekend's tennis match, they really hate me. My feat are beyond rough, they've got dry, cracked skin (gross, but I'm honest), callus buildup due to shoes (and walking) and would make a Hobbit cry.
Like you, I've been hunting for magic potions for my hands and my feet…to no avail. Recently, I was invited to a mani/pedi session overseen by celeb manicurist Skyy Hadley and her team od crack manicurists by Curel.
Read 7 Fab Tips on How to Dress On-Trend for Pennies
My life has changed, Okay, okay, I totally get that you think I'm over dramatizing it, but once my hands and feet met the Curel products, they instantly looked and felt better. For REALZ. The formulas don't wash off, are unscented and rock.
The Curel Hand & Cuticle Therapy ($4.71, drugstore.com), contains Vitamin E, Monoi Oil and soy milk. It's been tested by a dermatologist for efficacy and safety. It promotes 24 hour hydration (hello!), helps prevent broken nails and isn't greasy. You can wash your hands and the protective formula doesn't wash off….nice. Esp, when you're cleaning your home.
The Curel Foot Therapy ($4.55, drugstore.com) is infused with Shea butter, Vitamin E and coconut milk. The label claims that within two days you'll notice a difference in your feet: rough, dry cracked skin (eew) will go away. When I tried it, the change was immediate! You can use this day and night. Simply apply it in the morning, let dry, then slip on your favorite shoes. No slippage!
What I like about both Curel products is that relief is just seconds away from application and the price is right! How can you not like an affordable solution to an annoying problem?

Dell Introduces 8-inch Bay Trail Venue tablet at IDFby Anand Lal Shimpi on 9/11/2013 12:40 PM EST

Back to Article
Krysto - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkI bet this will sell just as well as the Venue smartphones. Reply
lilo777 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - link"The only disappointing part thus far is both of the announcements came from traditional PC OEMs..."
It's not quite obvious what is so disappointing about that.
So, two tablets. Which OS do they use? Reply
A5 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkBecause these companies have zero track record of making compelling mobile devices. ASUS is debatable, but their non-Nexus Android tablets have sold terribly.
He's saying that design wins from mobile players like Samsung, et al, would be more interesting. Reply
nerd1 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkAsus has a quite long track record for windows tablet (Anyone remember EP121?) Reply
Gondalf - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkIntel has not realized that only traditional PC OEMs will buy Bay Trail, other manufacturers do not want the old Intel dominance but inexpensive (or even expensive, it does not matter !!) ARM socs just to be free from the old Big Devil. Intel needs to change its way to think and it needs to realize that its long term destiny is like a Big Foundry......with some production of its own cpus obviously. Reply
Black Obsidian - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkIt is *far* too early to count Intel out of the smartphone/tablet SoC market. They spent years ignoring it, and in the short time since they started paying attention, Intel's products have *significantly* closed the gap on ARM in terms of both performance and power consumption. Reply
A5 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkLOL nope.
Companies don't make decisions like this. Intel doesn't have any good design wins because their products don't (yet) hit the price/power envelope you have to have in mobile. I think Airmont will be a Big Deal (tm) in this space, though. Reply
andrewaggb - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkWell yes and no. Apple makes decisions like that. Samsung prefers their own cpu's as well. Sure they use Intel where it makes sense, but so long as there isn't a significant difference they will use their own chips. Intel needs to make sure there is a significant difference. I don't think they succeeded on the android side of things yet, but definitely on the windows side this will be an excellent choice. Reply
meacupla - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkIs it really that hard to put bay trail into a 7" device?
7" bay trail with 1920x1200 resolution IPS or PLS screen with 6hrs or more battery run time.
That would be the ultimate mobile computer right there. Reply
nerd1 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - link$199 nexus 7 should be way cheaper and much more useful. Reply
meacupla - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - linkyes, because nexus 7 can run x86 programs. Reply
dwade123 - Wednesday, September 11, 2013 - link"much more useful."
Like running the latest fart apps and imaginary word processors. Reply
damianrobertjones - Monday, September 16, 2013 - linkMay I simply state, "Baa haa haa haaa"
Far more useful? What planet do you come from? Reply
pSupaNova - Friday, September 27, 2013 - linkEarth, Dreaming about running x86 Apps on a 8inch tablet is silly.
Android/IOS are much more capable in that form factor Reply
flyingpants1 - Saturday, September 14, 2013 - linkWhy? 8" is fine. It needs a clamshell-style detachable keyboard now, so you can put it in your coat pocket or bag and have a 100% functional x86 windows computer anywhere.
I can't keep buying every single device on the market. I want one phone (5"), one tablet (8"), and one laptop (14.1"). Reply
meacupla - Sunday, September 15, 2013 - link7" can be fit inside a jacket pocket, 8", not so much. Reply
flyingpants1 - Saturday, September 14, 2013 - linkI've never been using Microsoft Windows and suddenly thought, "Damn, this thing would be a lot more useful if it ran Android apps!"
But I always think the reverse: "Damn, if only my useless Android device could run Windows apps!"
Android does very little. And it doesn't even do it great - it's just good. Microsoft really could take over, they just need to stop dicking around. Reply
pSupaNova - Friday, September 27, 2013 - linkAndroid does a lot, I have challenged myself to program a game just using a tab AIDE/PhotoShop Touch are my weapons of choice and it going along well with the help of LibGDX. Reply
everex11 - Monday, September 16, 2013 - linkmy Aunty Brianna got an almost new red Jeep Cherokee SUV from only working part time on a computer... go to this website......www.pick85.com/ Reply

Enacted in 2008 as part of the Housing Assistance Tax Act, the
Internal Revenue Code Section 6050W requires
credit card processors to report to the IRS gross dollar amounts of

accomplish reporting, the credit card processing companies must
have federal tax identification numbers and names for their
merchant customer accounts that match their customers' IRS records.
Discrepancies may exist, such as when the merchant uses an
abbreviated name or acronym for their account. Some processing
companies have since notified their clients when a mismatch has
occurred, thus enabling the client to rectify the
To encourage accurate reporting, beginning January 2013, the IRS
will impose a 28 percent withholding penalty on all credit card
transactions where the merchant account information provided by the
processor does not match the merchant's federal tax identification
number and legal name. The imposition of a withholding penalty
could have real consequences for attorneys who accept credit and
debit cards.
To avoid any adverse impact to client trust accounts, there are
three simple steps to take, which are echoed by the Massachusetts
Board of Bar Overseers, in its announcement here:

Briton Kieron Bryan, a freelance videographer commissioned by Greenpeace International, attends a bail hearing at the Regional Court of Murmansk. Two Britons held in Russia for a Greenpeace protest were ordered to remain in pre-trial detention on Friday, a defeat for the first of the many foreigners among the 30 detainees to seek bail. Mr Bryan and Greenpeace activist Phillip Ball, who like the others face piracy charges, had appealed against an order that they be held through late November.

The Coding Monkey
Thanks to everyone who came out to the Twin Cities Code Camp, where I was among many speakers. This event is huge, and the organizers did a great job, not just with logistics but also in pulling together a lot of great topics, and excellent speakers. For those who came to my presentation, the source for my demo code can be downloaded here. You can also view my presentation as well:
TCCC - Javascript Unit Testing with QUnit and Mockjax on Prezi
One of the coolest part about speaking at an event like this is when people come up to you afterwards with information on your topic that you don't know. After my talk, someone asked about integrating Code Coverage, and he showed me JSCoverage, which I'd never heard of before. It doesn't look like its being actively maintained any more, but it certainly looks interesting, and still worth a look to see if we can use this to bring first class Unit Testing practices to Javascript. I'll definitely be looking at it in detail to see if I can incorporate it into this presentation, and especially to pull it into our practices where I work.
Thanks to Milwaukee ALT.NET for hosting on Monday, and allowing me to present on Unit Testing Javascript with QUnit and Mockjax. It was a great group of people, and I appreciated the good discussion and questions. As promised, here is the presentation material from Monday:
Javascript Unit Testing with QUnit and Mockjax on Prezi
Also, you can look at the source code from the demonstration as well, which is in the following zip file. Thanks again to everyone who attended!
I'd like to thank the organizers and participants at Milwaukee Agile last night for making it a great time for me. I presented a slightly updated version of Guerrilla Agile, and the discussion afterwards with those who were there was excellent. I really enjoy presenting on that particular topic, because there are always people listening who have done something similar, and can offer great insights into how to introduce Agile in a company that is unreceptive to it.
For those that are interested, here is the presentation that went along with my talk.
Guerrilla Agile - Milwaukee Agile on Prezi
About a month ago, I took the day off from work and went to Oshkosh for the EAA Fly-In. If you've never had the opportunity to go, and you enjoy flying, it's quite the experience. For the two weeks of the fly-in, the skies over Oshkosh become the busiest airspace in the world, and the variety of aircraft is quite impressive. The day that I went up was declared to be Burt Rutan day, and the air show that day featured several of his innovative designs, and they had several more on display which did not fly. Burt Rutan was also there that day, spoke at several different venues, and I was lucky enough to hear him speak.
Burt Rutan, in my opinion, is one of the move innovative aerospace designers in history. While few of his designs have become extremely popular at the time, the designs he used often times were incorporated years later after more mainstream companies and designers started using them. He is truly the definition of "years ahead of his time". Among various aircraft, he also designed SpaceShipOne, the first private manned spaceship.
Rutan spoke on many different topics, from his history as a designer, to the Space Shuttle. However, one of the more interesting topics he talked about was the value of having an aeronatical engineering degree in aerospace engineering. His view was that graduates of an aerospace program were essentially statisticians with no creativity. They would look at lots of data about how a current design operated, decide on a couple of areas that could be changed, and made minor tweaks. Then they'd run the data again. In any given year, an aircraft design would improve, but only on the margins.
According to him, many aerospace designers don't have a "gut". They don't come up with innovated designs that are truly game changers because they don't have a gut sense about how a design should work. If they can't model it directly, it won't happen. Rutan also talked about some of the low tech and rather simplistic methods he used to test various aircraft designs to verify that it would actually fly... but that was generally enough. One of those methods involved pulling a scale model attached to a trailer with a ball joint down a highway with his car.
Rutan's point was, just like the old basketball saying goes that "You can't teach height", you also can't teach that kind of creativity. You are either an out of the box thinker, or you're not. And often times colleges are structured in such a way that they try to suppress any subersive thoughts you might have about new and innovated ideas. This is not to say that data analysis and modeling aren't important. But at the same time, in any technical field, there is far more to the job than simply following existing models and slightly improving them.
These same lessons apply to software development. Education and certifications can be good signals to someone's ability, but there is far more to being a good developer than knowing your GoF patterns and the syntax to your chosen language.
For those who were at my Windows Management Instrumentation talk Saturday at Chicago Code Camp, you may recall one of the attendees mentioning an eBook on WQL in Powershell. I thought it would be worthwhile providing the link to Ravikanth's eBook, and thanks to Steve Murawski for the added information. Ravkanth also has a series on his blog on using WQL in Powershell, which if you found WMI to be useful based on my talk, is definitely worth a read.
I want to thank all the organizers, volunteers and attendees for a great time at Chicago Code Camp yesterday. I ended up presenting on two different topics, instead of the planned one. One of the speakers in the first session was unable to attend at the last minute, so I filled in and presented Guerrilla Agile (which I'll also be presenting to Chicago ALT.NET on Wednesday). It was a good opportunity to test out that new presentation to a smaller crowd and get some feedback. There was no code to go along with this presenation, just this presentation:
Of course, I also gave a slightly shorter version of my Application Instrumenation with WMI talk which I've given before. The group for that talk was very good, and had lots of great questions, and a few extra insights which I appreciated. You can find the presenation and code for the presentation in this zip archive. I've also uploaded the presentation to Slide Share:
In case anyone thought that I only had one speaking topic, you will have an opportunity to hear me at Chicago ALT.NET on May 18th. I'll be presenting "Guerrilla Agile" - How to Adopt Agile in a Company That is Hostile to Agile Methodologies. How many times have you ever gone to a meeting discussing Agile Development, and heard many of the people in the audience talk about how they were "interested in Agile" and were "excited about it" but weren't actually doing Agile? That is often times because the company they are working for not only doesn't currently use Agile Methods, but is actually hostile to it's adoption.
Should you as a budding Agile Practitioner just stand back and study Agile without ever actually doing it? Or is there some other way that you can introduce Agile into that hostile environment? Guerrilla Agile will give you a set of tools to use in that hostile company.
What are you doing on May 14th? If you have the day available, you should definitely come down to Grayslake Illinois for Chicago Code Camp. Code Camp is for developers of all skill levels, and will have multiple sessions running side by side. There is no language or framework of choice, so developers of all stripes are welcome. You can see the full speaker list here as well as the session listing.
You might notice that I am on the speaker list, and will be presenting "Application Instrumentation with WMI". If you're interested in attending (even if you don't plan on seeing my session), you can do so for free at Event Brite.
I found this story about a man suing Facebook to be rather interesting:
In seeking $500,000, Fteja is suing Facebook for disabling his account, in which he had about 340 friends and family and had spent "timeless hours creating content and relationships [Facebook] benefitted from," the suit contends. He wants it back on, and he wants the company to pay for the damage of alienating him from his family and friends (about $1500 per friend/family)....There are a lot of mines to step on that could result in Facebook shutting down someone's account, according to its terms of service, and Fteja can't figure out what he did wrong.
"I know one thing - I didn't do anything," he told The New York Post (which lists him as 39 and a native of Montenegro. Gotta love those New York dailies.). "I didn't violate anything."
He aired his speculations to the tabloid. "Did someobody hack my account? I don't know. If it's that someobody hacked my account, Facebook should help me. If you have a problem with your AOL login, AOL helps you. Not Facebook," he said.

Now then, I don't know if this is worth half a million dollars, but it still poses an interesting question. I think he's right, that even though the service if "free", Facebook does get payment from all of us in that it uses our time and our information in order to allow it to make money through advertising. And while Facebook certainly ought to be able to ban people from violating its Terms of Service, does it not at least owe someone an explanation other than "you violated our Terms of Service"? After all, these are usually very complicated, and often times vague legal style documents.
Its quite possible that someone can violate any website's Terms of Service and not realize it. Oftne times these violations are really subject to debate. This type of issue has also come up with Apple when developers have their apps rejected for often times unknown violations of their App Store Standards. In Apple's case, these vague responses are even worse because developers pay money to submit an app to the store.
People also complain about Google's responsiveness when they have problems with their free services like Gmail. Since so many of the money making websites that we may develop are "free" and use an ad-based model for revenue, the question becomes... what do we owe our users?
So you may have noticed that my site template got cleaned up a bit. What can I say... being a software guy is sort of like being a cobler. Your children are often barefoot.
You may have also noticed this advertisement on the right side which I put up more than a week ago:
If you're interested in developing for Windows Phone 7, as I am, then you might want to think about attending one of these Developer Launch events. And as it turns out, putting that advertisment up will also give me a shot at winning a free Windows Phone 7. The odds are slim, but if you don't play, you can't win!
I've also added a link to my INETA Regional Speaker profile. As you've probably noticed, this year I've decided to venture into the realm of User Group speaking engagements. I've already done three this year, that have been fairly well received, and I'm hoping to expand on that. My first presentations were on "Application Instrumentation with WMI", but I have other presentations I'm interested in doing as well. I am currently developing presentations on "An Introduction to Umbraco" (a fairly well done open source .NET CMS package) and also another presentation on Software Estimation (no working title yet). If you are interested in having me come to speak on any of these topics, please feel free to contact me, or check out my INETA profile.

Kid Heroes: 13-year-old Steers Bus to Safety After Driver Passes Out
True story: 13-year-old Jeremy Wuitschick took control of a school bus when the driver passed out. Talk about heroic!
-Lylah M. Alphonse, Yahoo! Shine
Parents often talk about the frustrating aspects of raising teenagers. But kids do some amazing things, and some of them even save the day. So, let's focus on the positive: Introducing "Kid Heroes" at Yahoo! Shine.
When the school bus driver started gasping and waving his hands in the air, 13-year-old Jeremy Wuitschick didn't panic. Instead, he got out of his seat, went to the front of the bus, and grabbed the steering wheel just as the driver passed out.
He managed to pull the school bus over to the side of the road and then took the keys out of the ignition, saving himself and 15 other students.
"I knew something was wrong," the seventh grader told Seattle-area news station KOMO-TV. "It was pretty scary. I just acted on instinct. It was all happening really quickly."

The bus driver, whose name was not released, was taken to the hospital. Jeff Short, the assistant superintendent for the Fife school district, told reporters that the driver had a heart issue and that his condition was currently "grave."
Thankfully, the bus wasn't far from its destination: Wuitschick pulled over in front of Discovery Primary School, which is just next door to Surprise Lake Middle School. Police had received reports of a school bus driving erratically at 8 a.m., but by the time they got to the scene the teen had already saved the day. Other kids on the bus had already called 911 for the bus driver.
"I'll tell you, I'll give the kid credit for fast thinking," Milton, Washington, police chief Bill Rhodes told ABC News. "He did the right thing and we're going to do something for him. The kid definitely deserves credit."

AN ADVERTISING salesman accused of duping dozens of local shopkeepers is being investigated by trading standards.
Nigel Hallett, who has taken thousands of pounds in orders from numerous Bournemouth and Poole businesses, said he would co-operate with the investigation but insisted traders' fears were unfounded as they would all get the adverts they paid for.
Business owners complained to Poole trading standards after paying to be included in a 'Little Black Book' business directory Mr Hallett was compiling.
It was supposed to be published at the end of last year but nothing has materialised.
Following the complaints, Poole Trading Standards opened an investigation and Wiltshire council is assisting with this by taking statements from businesses in their area with similar complaints.
Several traders in Bournemouth, who handed over money to Mr Hallett more recently, have also voiced fears they may be left out of pocket.
But Bournemouth-based Mr Hallett said the Poole directory would be published within two weeks and the Bournemouth one in June.
He apologised for the delay and said this was because he had suffered health problems. "As a gesture of goodwill I am sending out a written apology to all Poole businesses this week and giving them a free listing on the website, which is live in August.
"I've refunded a number of people. I'm an honest person and passionate about helping small businesses."
Many of the traders who handed over money to Mr Hallett are unconvinced. One Poole trader said: "I have never seen any proofs of the planned editorial so I seriously doubt the book will materialise.
"He told me over a month ago that it would be out in two weeks. I've also asked for my money back many times but he's ignored my requests."
And another said: "It's been nearly a year now since he took our money."
A spokesperson for the Borough of Poole confirmed they were investigating Mr Hallett. A spokesperson for Dorset Police confirmed they had received reports of an alleged scam but said they had assessed it as a civil matter rather than a fraud.
Andy Sherriff, of Bournemouth trading standards, said: "We would advise traders to always be cautious when offered something that seems a little too good a true.
"Traders who suggest that they have a unique product may not be telling the complete truth and it's worth taking a few minutes to check out the background before you commit your cash.
"Just the time it takes to make a cup of tea will allow you to do some checking that may well save you from being parted from your money."

Learning to walk is the defining athletic accomplishment
for children between 12 and 24 months of age. Those first steps are possible
because of changes taking place within the brain and the spinal cord.
Coordination and muscle control advance as the brain grows and matures.
Most children start walking by 13 months of age. The usual range for
starting to walk is any time between 9 and 15 months.
When your
toddler reaches a developmental milestone, such as walking, it means he or she
has mastered the physical and cognitive skills needed to advance to another
skill. For example, about 6 months after your child has learned to walk with
ease, he or she will likely be able to run. Most toddlers also learn the basics
of climbing, kicking, and throwing.
Also during the second year,
children gain more control and coordination over the many small muscles in
their hands, fingers, and wrists. These fine-motor skills enable your child to
begin drawing with crayons, eating with a spoon, and manipulating small

And what a beautiful ship it is . . .
After many long months of work by our incredibly talented and dedicated engineering teams CS3 Production Premium is now shipping!
To celebrate, let's make some fireworks. It's almost July 4 anyhow.
Start off by creating a new composition in After Effects, in whatever resolution you wish to work in (File > New Composition). In the Composition Settings dialog, set the Duration to 4 seconds (0;00;04;00).
Create a new solid layer in your Comp by selecting Layer > New > Solid. In the Solid Settings dialog, click Make Comp Size and then click OK.
Go to the Effects menu and select Simulation > CC Particle Systems II. RAM Preview and you'll see some sparks.
We're actually not gonna have to do all that much to make this look real pretty. What we've got now is a constant stream of sparks. Let's set some keyframes for the Birth Rate of these particles to give us a single "pop". Drag the Current Time Indicator (CTI) in your timeline the beginning of the comp and then set an initial keyframe for Birth Rate by clicking on the stopwatch to the left of its name in the Effect Controls Panel.
Set the Birth Rate to 40, then move the CTI ahead 5 frames and set the Birth Rate to 0. RAM Preview again and you'll now see that "pop" but we still have some work to do in order to make this more convincing.
Twirl open the controls for Physics and set Gravity to 0.2 (which will keep the particles from falling away so quickly) and set Resistance to 10 (which will keep them from traveling too far away from their point of origination, also known as the Producer).
Then twirl open the controls for Particle and set Max Opacity to 50%
Now let's duplicate what we've done a few times to create a short sequence. First, trim back the tail end of the Solid layer to make it 2 seconds long by clicking and dragging the right-hand edge of the clip to the left until it lines up with the 2 second mark on the timeline.
Duplicate the layer by selecting Edit > Duplicate, and then change the position of the Producer by first selecting the CC Particle Systems II effect in the Effect Controls Panel, and then clicking-and-dragging the Producer in the Composition Viewer to a new location.
The Producer is a small circle with a cross inside it.
Repeat the above step 3 more times until you have 5 copies of the layer, each with its Producer in a different location.
Now to have these fire off in a sequence, select all 5 of the layers then go to the Animation menu and select Keyframe Assistant > Sequence Layers.
In the Sequence Layers dialog, make sure Overlap is checked. When one layer fires, we want the next one to fire 10 frames later, so this is basically a math problem which depends on your frame rate:
If you're working in 30fps enter a duration of 1:20 (0;00;01;20)
If you're working in 25fps enter a duration of 1:15 (0;00;01;15)
If you're working in 24fps enter a duration of 1:14 (0;00;01;14)
Click OK, RAM Preview, and then sit back and watch the show.
To customize further, try changing the colors of the particles as well as playing with the different Physics parameters. Happy 4th of July everyone, and here's to the most exciting release of video tools in Adobe's history!

SIR Graham Watson, the South-West's MEP, has welcomed a status protecting beef and lamb reared within Somerset and the rest of the region.
The meats have been awarded EU Protected Geographic Indication (PGI) status and join a list of products such as Cornish clotted cream, Dorset blue cheese, West County farmhouse cheddar and Gloucestershire cider.
Graham said: "Such status gives consumers peace of mind, knowing that what they are eating or drinking is the genuine article and is good quality.
"PGI status also ensures that the product cannot be replicated elsewhere in Europe, leading to a watering down of its provenance and quality."

Take One a Day...
In the bleak midwinter with a GRD III, some grit, determination and a lot of monochrome...
Acerca del libro
Back in December 2011 the nice people over at Serious Compacts had an idea for a photo project. "Single in January" was a simple concept - take one shot a day and post it. What sounded like a walk in the park actually turned out to be an interesting and enjoyable challenge of photographic skills, tenacity and imagination.
I made it both easier and harder for myself by using a single camera - the excellent Ricoh GRD III, which by definition meant a single focal length (28mm). I made it harder by not only choosing to work in monochrome, but also the "HiBW" high contrast mode that is available on Ricoh compacts. This gives a moody, grainy texture that suits some, but by no means all subjects.
By far the hardest part of the exercise was finding a "worthy" photo to take and post every day. I didn't "cheat" - I would only have been cheating myself - so every photo was genuinely taken on the day in question; the EXIF doesn't lie. As a result on some days I was spoiled for choice with more than one candidate, whereas on others I had to really stretch my imagination and creativity to come up with something.
The text on each page was also written on the day. It is interesting to look back nearly 12 months later and see how much the world has moved on - or not.
This was a grand way to put some photographic structure into an otherwise dreary and dull month. The result is this book. I hope it gives some enjoyment and some motivation for others to get out there and take a picture - one a day or many...

Boxer Sam Soliman has slammed as "complete nonsense" a report that he failed a drug test taken before his win over former WBA champion Felix Sturm in their IBF middleweight title eliminator in Germany.
Federation of German Professional Boxers president Thomas Puetz has told German daily Bild that Soliman's urine sample tested positive for an undisclosed banned substance.
Puetz said a "difficult to detect designer drug with stimulating effects was found" following 39-year-old Soliman's unanimous decision win over Sturm in Dusseldorf on February 1.
No.1 IBF contender Soliman took to Twitter on Sunday to reject the claim and hint at legal action.
"Drug allegations are complete nonsense and an insult. Anyone who knows me knows my views about drug cheats," Soliman wrote.
"The matter is now in the hands of my lawyers & it will be pursued 2 the fullest extent possible. I won't be commenting further."
Soliman's manager David Stanley said he was talking to his fighter's lawyer Michael Bates about the damage to his fighter's reputation.
"We will be doing everything in our power to protect Sam's reputation," Stanley told AAP.
Stanley has been locked in negotiations with the camp of IBF middleweight world champion Daniel Geale, with their fight to go to a purse bid this week.
He was livid that the test result was made public before his fighter was notified.
"My experience with Thomas Putz is that he is not neutral, and is too close to the Sturm camp," Stanley said.
"He should have contacted Sam Soliman if there was an irregularity in the A sample, not gone to the media.
"We have full confidence in NADA in Germany, however, the protocols we agreed with them have been breached by Mr Putz."
The Soliman camp insisted on drug testing before and after the bout, though Stanley emphasised not every part of the testing stipulated in the contract had been complied with.
"I'm told that the Sturm camp is alleging that Sam has tested positive for an undetectable amphetamine, that's absolute rubbish," Stanley said,
"I'm also told that Sturm has identified who he should be fighting next so that he can then fight for the world title.
"This is an act of absolute desperation.
"I've contacted the Australian anti-doping commission to get them to get into contact with the German group because there are irregularities all over the place on this, against someone who is vehemently opposed to any form of performance-enhancing drug use."

There is so much debate about wether or not bigfoot, leatherface, a ratman and ufos appearf in the game, cant someone just look through the game files and look at all the npc models and just see if any of them are there? im not gifted in this field personally, but i knwo you can do it on other games, is there some reason we cant do it in gta?
Dei82ty: Lot's of people looked trough the game files, including me and didn't find anything.
Bigfoot, letherface and other characters DO NOT appear in game files. They exist only in mods.

I completely agree I am a huge GTA fanatic and I have personally searched for many hours for bigfoot and have found no evidence that he even lives here, although it was said by a member of rockstar that there is something in the forests of San Andreas but there is a 1/10 chance in finding it.
