While we recommend hand washing our bottles, they are dishwasher safe as long as you remove the cap and strap first. When not using our bottle, keep it clean and dry. What else you might want to know.... Where are your bottles manufactured? Our bottles are made in China. To proactively address any potential concerns, we'll mention that all of our products adhere to our strict chemical policy. The thinksport bottles have been and continue to be tested globally to insure their safety. In fact, our bottles undergo rigorous chemical and biologic testing from multiple laboratories to insure that they do not contain or leach toxic chemicals. Furthermore, Whole Foods has audited our facilities for compliance in Good Manufacturing processes. Regarding quality, the thinksport bottle has been thoroughly field-tested since our inception over four years ago with excellent results. What type of stainless steel do you use? Our bottles are made of 18/8 medical-grade 304 stainless steel and do not have any type of liner. How long does your bottle keep drinks cold? The short answer is results will vary….but a long time! Because of all of the different situations out there, we do not guarantee a time period. However, we generally say "up to 12 hours" and have lots of good stories from happy customers. Some tell us about how they left their thinksport bottle in the car in 100 degree weather only to return to clinking ice five hours later. Others tell us how we kept their drinks cold for longer than 24 hours. One customer even put our bottle in a thermal testing chamber and reported that it was the best bottle he had ever seen. Do your bottles fit in cup holders? Our 350ml/12oz bottles are designed to fit in car cup holders while our 750ml/25oz bottles fit some (but not all). Do your bottles fit in a bicycle water bottle cage? The 750ml bottle does not fit in a bike cage. While the 350ml bottle will fit, we are cyclists here at thinksport and do not recommend it. Metal bottles are not squeezable and therefore make it difficult to get fluid quickly while riding. If dropped, metal bottles would become a potential hazard for your fellow riders. Our bottles are an excellent choice for short, easy rides when you can loop the bottle over your handlebars or put it in your backpack, panier, etc. and head off to your favorite neighborhood coffee shop.

If we're classifying NBA players by their offensive style of play, you couldn't find too many players further apart than Tyreke Evans and J.R. Smith. Take away the cliched responses that they're both offensive-happy players who only want to watch themselves dribble and shoot and you have Smith, a career sixth man who can stroke it from deep but sometimes struggles to penetrate off the bounce, a guy who's always been better than advertised as a defender… and Evans, a player with star potential who can't shoot at all but loves to breakdown any defense in the league, and a guy who has the physical attributes to be a really solid defender.
One plays on a lottery team. One plays on a contender. But both received new contracts this summer.
It'll be interesting next year to see Evans take on a Manu Ginobili role in New Orleans. Reportedly, he's fine with that, and excited. It'll be just as fun to watch Smith try to reclaim some semblance of good vibes from New York after his horrendous playoff performance. If everything goes according to plan, these two could be battling for the Sixth Man of the Year.
But who's better: Evans or Smith? We argue. You decide.
*** *** ***
Quiet and reserved, Tyreke Evans is in many ways the perfect foil for the brash, precocious J.R. Smith. At first glance, there are striking similarities between the two. Both are 6-6 and about 220 pounds, they both (generally) play the two-guard position, they boast a remarkably similar Player Efficiency Rating (Evans at 18.16 compared to Smith's 17.67), and they each just signed lucrative, multi-year contracts with their respective teams. After wallowing in obscurity and futility in Sacramento, Evans has earned a fresh start in New Orleans, while the Knicks continue to believe that Smith is a key piece of their ever-evolving championship puzzle.
If you watched Smith and the Knicks during the playoffs this year, you learned all you need to know about why this is a fool's folly. For his career, Smith has averaged 13.2 points, 2.1 assists and 3.2 rebounds, on 42 percent shooting, and to be fair, he had one of his best individual seasons by far in 2012-2013, when his scoring spiked to 18.1 points per game and he showed a marked improvement on the defensive end, earning himself his first-ever Sixth Man of the Year award and helping the Knicks to a two-seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. But Smith played horrendously during the postseason, shooting just 33 percent from the field, mostly because of hideous shot selection and either an unwillingness or an inability to do anything else but keep shooting.
With Evans, there are plenty of reasons to be ambivalent about his future. During his first four seasons, he averaged 17.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists, while shooting 44 percent from the field, which are respectable numbers (and several notches above Smith's career averages to date), but he hasn't turned out to be the perennial All-Star candidate we thought he would after his legendary rookie campaign when he averaged 20 points, five rebounds, and five assists per game, joining Michael Jordan, Oscar Robertson and LeBron James as the only other players ever to accomplish that feat during their rookie seasons. To say that that puts him in elite company would be an understatement.
The problem with that outstanding rookie season was that it set our expectations too high, so anything less than All-Star-caliber, MVP-like performances seems like a letdown. True, his raw offensive numbers have declined since his rookie season, but this overlooks the fact that he's improved his game in several key areas. Most notably, his accuracy from behind the arc jumped from 20 percent in 2011-2012 to 33 percent this past season, which isn't too far behind Smith's 2013 regular season average of 35 percent (note: Smith's accuracy from three-point land nosedived to 27 percent during the playoffs this year).
And let's not ignore the fact that J.R. "Don't Call Me Earl" Smith is prone to general boneheadedness, on and off the court. He got himself ejected from Game 3 of the Celtics/Knicks series and never really recovered after that. Just about the only thing he's better at is social media blunders.
Evans, on the other hand, has been the consummate professional, despite all the turmoil in Sacramento the past few years with the seemingly endless game of musical coaching chairs, the uncertainty surrounding the sale and relocation of the team, the comical levels of mismanagement on the part of the Maloofs, and, of course, the delightfully-dysfunctional DeMarcus Cousins. He's never once demanded a trade, never once questioned his increasingly diminished role within their offensive schemes, and despite all the chaos and tumult, despite the team refusing to renew his contract, still would have preferred to remain in Sacramento. It's the type of loyalty that's rare in an era when teams and players are so often driven single-mindedly by economics or the opportunity to chase that elusive championship.
Evans has been shuffled around at different positions for the past couple of seasons – point guard, shooting guard, small forward – but that only shows he's a more versatile player than Smith, who is prone to tunnel vision on offense. Evans has been playing more and more off-the-ball lately, something that seems almost incomprehensible to Smith, who is a notorious ball-stopper. In Smith's defense, he is certainly capable of going off for 30 points on any given night and being an absolute game-changer, but the streakiness and inconsistency we saw during the playoffs make him more of a liability than an asset.
For Evans, a fresh start in New Orleans under the tutelage of Monty Williams should offer him the opportunity to prove that the flashes of brilliance we saw during his rookie season weren't an aberration. At the age of 27, we've likely seen everything J.R. Smith is capable of. He is who he is, and he's not going to change for anybody. The same cannot be said for Tyreke Evans, who at 23 is still working out all the kinks in his game while entering the prime of his career.

superkristx Review
My fiance proposed to me with this ring. Let me tell you, it is so pretty. I would never guess that he only spent what he did. I would have thought a ring this adorable would have cost 4 times as much. I absolutely love this style of ring. It looks like a prized family heirloom. I love the vintage look, and I have never seen anyone wearing one like it. The diamonds sparkle so beautifully in the light. I LOVE this ring so much. I work in the wedding industry and since I started wearing this ring, brides are always commenting on how beautiful it is. I would highly recommend this ring. If you are on a budget, but want something that is beautiful and unique this is the best ring money can buy! You won't be sorry with this purchase! My fiance did an exceptional job going with this ring. It will be an engagement ring I will be happy to wear forever!

text: Whats goin on guys? Been gone for a minute and I'd like to start a topic for discussion, and hopefully not shoot myself in the foot in the process. Okay, so... I don't wanna start a war here but I must ask my fellow community this question: Do you believe there is a difference in Discipline (in the context of a major offence, issuing a few swats on the butt and a lecture) and Child Abuse (striking /hitting a child on any part of the body with the intent to inflict harm.) Now let that stew as I tell you why/how this got brought up. I have a Facebook page (GASP!) and it just so happens the feed on the right hand side of the page, the one that updates every 15 seconds or so, I see one of my friends posted a link as a comment to a picture. Here's the Picture: And here is the link: https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/184894.pdf So after seeing the picture and reading the short PDF article, I was inclined to say something about that. His response: My Response: His retort: At this point, its obvious he's not really arguing my statements, just kinda repeating his views. My response: His response: That pretty much ended the discussion between he and I. I have about 200+ friends on my friends list and I gladly shared this picture on my timeline with one a word title "Agreed." Thus far, those who have responded/liked the picture were also in agreements with me. So, maybe with a bigger audience than just my Facebook friends, I ask you fellow users and abusers of Android, what is your take on the picture? How do you feel about a good swat on the butt and a lecture vs sitting in a corner for 10 minutes as Discipline? Please be open and respect every ones own individual opinions. This is meant to discuss and think, not yell and hate.

OMAHA, September 6, 2001 ? Qwest Communications International Inc. (NYSE: Q), the broadband communications company, moved another important step closer to offering Nebraska consumers a real choice in long-distance service when the Nebraska Public Service Commission unanimously certified completion of reciprocal compensation, one of the 14 checklist items necessary for the company?s re-entry into the long-distance business. Reciprocal compensation allows a communications company to be paid for completing calls that originate on another company?s network.
?The action taken by the commissioners is another important step on the road to Qwest?s re-entry into the long-distance business here in Nebraska," said Tim Sandos, Qwest vice president, Nebraska. ?It reflects diligent work on the part of the Nebraska commission and clearly demonstrates Qwest's commitment to open its local markets to competitors."
A study by Professor Jerry A. Hausman, director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Telecommunications Economics Research Program, found that Nebraska residents could save up to $40 million annually in local and long-distance charges once Qwest is allowed to re-enter the long-distance market. After Qwest is approved to re-enter the long-distance business, the company will be able to provide customers with another competitive choice for long-distance service, as well as offer bundled services and the convenience of a single bill.
The commission's order confirmed that Qwest has satisfied requirements for reciprocal compensation as required by the Telecommunication Act of 1996. In the order, the commission confirmed Qwest is now in compliance with the majority of the 14-point checklist items including those dealing with Interconnection, Poles, Ducts, Conduits and Rights-of-Way; 911, Directory Assistance and Operator Services; White Page Directory Listings; Number Administration; Signaling and Databases; Number Portability; Dialing Parity and Resale. Three additional items ? Unbundled Loops, Unbundled Transport, and Unbundled Switching ? have received conditional approval subject to Qwest providing performance data to the commission, which is scheduled to take place in a hearing today. Additional rulings on remaining items are expected later this year.
When Qwest acquired U S WEST, the company had to divest itself of its long- distance holdings in the 14 western states where US WEST provided local service. Under the Telecommunications Act, Qwest can re-enter the long-distance business when it satisfies a 14-point federal checklist for each state.

Among the Boston Medical Library's more unusual holdings is its collection of more than 4,000 medical medals and coins. Horatio Robinson Storer, Class of 1853, presented the bulk of the collection to the library in 1900, in memory of his father. After contracting septicemia in 1872, Storer was compelled to abandon his gynecological practice and turned to the study and collection of coins and medals, specifically those relating to medicine, collecting portrait medals of individuals as well as medals relating to diseases, hospitals, medical colleges, societies, institutions, nursing, and pharmacy.

The Evil Within Creator Says the PS4 helped him make the most realistic horror game
Shinji Mikami said that the PS4 has allowed him to make a more realistic horror-game.
While speaking during a interview with OPM, Shinji Mikamisaid this about The Evil Within on the PS4.
"So because the resolution's higher, it's more realistic. I can actually create something that's more realistic. In the horror genre, [it's about] the lighting. More lights in a level means there's more variety in the situations, so that's very good."

Sphawley, . . . my employer said we could have them in our vehicles if we were going to a range after work.
I went often enough to make it work.
But, . . . . and this is the important part, . . . . every time I got in my vehicle, I was armed, . . . and that is especially important when you are going back to a building that has been standing unoccupied for the day.
I never really worried about the "stop and rob" or other scenarios "on the way home" so to speak. My worst fear was to come home to a burglary in progress and interrupt an armed intruder.
Fortunately it never happened, . . . but that is still a good 33% of the reason I carry.
Your best advice is simply call up a lawyer, . . . make an appointment, . . . ask him flat out what the Nevada law says, . . . and follow it.
May God bless,
If you can breathe, . . . thank God!
If you can read, . . . thank a teacher!
If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a Veteran!

A chart in the Travel Advisory column on Feb. 24, about prices at Disneyland and Disney World, misstated the total cost of a cheeseburger, french fries and Coke at Disney World. The total for one person is $5.09, not $3.65, and for four people $20.36, not $14.60. A Disney World representative wrote to The Times in March about the error; the correction was delayed through an editing oversight.

text: I've been pouring over the Atlanta board and was getting all sorts of excited for dining options for myself and a group of foodie friends converging in Atlanta for the weekend. However, we're really busy with the event we're in town for Thursday-Saturday. Sunday was looking perfect for a great dinner. Then I started noticing all of the places at the top of the list (Bacchnalia's tasting menu was tops) are closed on Sunday! I had high hopes for Eugene, but the one day we want, there's a private party taking over the whole place. So, now I'm left with little choices that I know of. Does anyone in ATL know of someplace with a top notch and fun menu that actually is open on Sunday?

A group of suspected Boko Haram fighters have conducted another act of manslaughter in a village close to the capital city of the troubled Borno State, Maiduguri, killed about 45 people.
According to BBC reports, the insurgents appeared in the area in a rather quite way on July 4, 2014, Wednesday. They entered Barderi village close to the outskirts of Borno State capital, and the University of Maiduguri area. The invaders offered people to gather for preaching. But when the crowd grew larger, they pulled out the guns and started shooting on the peaceful villagers.
As the result, about 45 people have lost their lives.
The terrorists have been practicing more and more tricks to gather residents together before killing them.
For instance, in an attack on Attagara village, Gwoza Local Government area of Borno State, on July 3, 2014, Tuesday, people believed that armed men where the troops deployed for their protection after Sunday's deadly attack on a local church.
When the uniformed people asked them to line up, they obeyed and therefore, became easy targets for Boko Haram gunmen.
The number of people killed in Tuesday's parallel and coordinated raids on at least six villages is controversial. The latest update by BBC informs of 200 killed. However, such Nigerian sources as TodayNG put the number of slaughtered civilians to 400, informed about many corpses dumped in bushes and pathways.

Top volunteering holidays for the ethical traveller
Conservation, health education, running schools⦠getting your hands dirty on a volunteering holiday has become the latest big thing. But beware, altruism doesnât always come cheap.
Many of us are seeking an ethically, environmentally or spiritually rewarding experience. And weâre happy to pay for the privilege â last year, British holidaymakers were willing to pay up to £100 a week for an altruistic adventure with the National Trust. The popularity of the volunteer holiday has peaked abroad, too, as tropical sun-seekers count fish in South America and nature lovers work to save orang-utans in Indonesia. Yet all too often, despite the hard graft and good intentions, such a trip can cost a fortune. If youâre keen, one of the following budget volunteer breaks may be just the ticket.
Learn to dig EstoniaThe British Trust for Conservation Volunteers (BTCV) does more than just talk about climate change. With many opportunites to restore flora and fauna across the globe, it offers the chance to tackle the adverse effects of global warming in Estonia this summer.
What do I do when Iâm there?Think repairing nature trails across floodplain meadows, restoring fish-spawning grounds or raking hay. Youâll sleep in a village or camp. Activities include hiking, cycling, swimming and boat trips.

I wish that they would be friends again.
You already know that I heart this fic quite a lot, but I'm going to detail all the reasons why in some reviews. –grin-
The opening few paragraphs of this are great. They set everything up perfectly and engage the reader immediately. You introduce all the major players, plus you give us this awesome setting with the tower. Love it.
Just briefly touching on the title of this chapter, I love that Regulus wants to be a completely prejudiced git. This is where, I think, we start to see a different side of Regulus that a lot of writers never effectively convey. You know, Regulus was a Slytherin, and he wasn't a carbon copy of Sirius, but other writers…yeah, I don't think they always think Regulus all the way through. You have, though. Um, basically, you rock at writing Regulus.
The background on Sirius and Regulus is lovely. Sometimes I forget that not everybody comes into these stories knowing everything about these two characters that we want them to know, and you do a great job of explaining things and providing a past without bogging the story down. (The side note about the Gryffindor v. Slytherin rivalry is nice and really helps to characterize Regulus more; it flips our sort of default ideas about the two houses and tells us that Regulus isn't ashamed to be in Slytherin – he's just not our 'Slytherin equals evil' type guy.)
And yet, Regulus is still bothered by the fact that he has non-pureblood friends; it shows that he does care about the opinions of his family, that he isn't interested in completely severing his ties with them, at least not at this point in his life. Even though he regards his situation with mild sarcasm, I think it's clear he does feel conflicted, and that's basically the point, isn't it?
Ah, I totally heart the conversation about Quidditch. This is something you do so well – writing normal, regular, every day dialogue. And I mean that in like…the best of ways. Because it makes the fic feel real, like we really are reading a scene out of Regulus's life, and it's easy to picture other days, other conversations about Quidditch. And, Matt and Rachel may or may not remind me of some certain other people. >.>
Of course I adore Sirius's entrance into the fic. It's perfect, exactly what I would imagine Sirius doing. The exchange between Sirius and Regulus is so sad, but so great. This is why I love our Black brothers. They are still brothers, and they do care about each other, but their lives went in different directions, and their relationship could never remain the way it was when they were younger. Ah, love. Obviously you know this, but you just write them both so wonderfully. I love when Sirius says, "You are my brother," after Regulus says that Sirius is supposed to be on James's side. Usually we think if James as more a brother to Sirius than Regulus, but again, you show how the Black brothers are, still, brothers.
Oh, that's the end of the chapter. I sort of momentarily forgot you split this into chapters. But anyway, excellent of course, and I'm off to the next chapter.
Hello, SPEW buddy!
I'm here to leave a review. Obviously. =p
Um, I can't help but point out a summary mistake:
A story about Regulus and Sirius, written for the fourth SPEW Secret Santa exchance.
It should be 'exchange'. =]
That's about it. Now on with the review!
I really loved this fic when I first read it on LJ. And did leave a review saying that. I especially like the way you've portrayed Regulus. We don't know much about him, but whatever JKR's let on, you've formed it all up very well to give us a very IC Regulus.
He's got mixed feelings about every thing. He's trying to use his mind and not heart but in the end the latter wins. The same happens after he becomes a Death Eater. He joins Voldemort because he thinks it's his duty to do what his parents believe in. To take it a step further. Later, he finds out about the horcruxes, and what happens? His heart takes over and he realises that what he's doing is wrong. He tries to make amends and ends up sacrificing himself.
Over here too, he's thinking about not talking to Sirius, and staying away from Rachel, but he can't. Again, the heart interferes.
I like the whole brotherly relationship. First Regulus and Sirius used to meet somewhere alone to just talk... or not... to just have a good time together even though Sirius was the black sheep of the family and had been sorted into Gryffindor and not Slytherin unlike Regulus. Sirius is not into the pure-blood stuff and is a rebel. Regulus, on the other hand, tries his best to live up to the expectations of his family. But despite these differences, the bond is still there. Even when Sirius leaves, Regulus tries to persuade himself that since they're no longer family, they shouldn't meet but he can't help but miss his big brother. He wants to listen to his family, and does try his best but he can't overcome his feelings.
Regulus also likes a girl-- Rachel. And she's a Muggle born. Cliche, but it works really well. And I read some where that something becomes cliche because it's repeated again and again, and the reason why it's repeated is because it's true. So this is a good thing. Anyway, coming back to Rachel. Regulus is undoubtedly attracted to her, tries to stay away but can't help especially when the feeling is returned. Again, he's trying to not to something since it won't be allowed but he can't and succumbs to the temptation.
Also, you've mentioned the Quidditch bit some where in the beginning. It's another canon fact which you mention in passing.
Now on with Sirius. He misses Regulus and he shows it. He also agrees that not all Slytherins are 'prejudiced gits'. That's another thing I like. Sirius accepts it and does not act all against them unlike the way other fics show him to be. Also, apparently he has some girl issues too. A girl who turns out to be a Slytherin pure-blood. Lol. I like the talk between him and James too, it sort of adds humour to the fic where Regulus is all depressed over his complicated life. I love how charming Sirius is with Reeve. Obviously, there's something going on from both the sides.
I'd mention more, but since others don't know the ending, I will stop. *zips lips*
One thing though. The ending is lovely. Very realistic. *stops self from writing more*
- Afifa
P.S. PoA is on TV right now. Lol. /random
Author's Response: Ahaha! Another reminder that I need to finish updating this story. Thanks for your response to the part of the fic that's up so far, Afifa. And I will go and fix that summary mistake. -facepalm- Oh, but in your review you said that Rachel was a Muggleborn, but she's actually half-blood. I am so totally aware of how common it is to use a Muggleborn with a hardcore Slytherin character, so I wanted to avoid that; but I also, when taking Regulus' character into account, didn't feel like *my* Regulus would go for a Muggleborn. He can rationalize Rachel being halfblood as okay, but he couldn't ignore it if she was Muggleborn.
Oh, how I loved this story when I first read it in the swap. It's such an incredible insight into the relationship between Sirius and Regulus. I know that you split the actual story in half, so I'll try my best to only review the part that you've submitted as the first chapter.
It had been their thing, after all, he and Sirius. For his first four years, it was a ritual for them to meet as brothers, sneaking up to the top of this tower to talk, or not talk, and gaze at the stars.
Speaking of the relationship, I thought that this little part was really well characterized. I mean, Sirius and Regulus are clearly different and they both know it, but they are brothers. It's one of those little facets in their relationship – that they actually do (or perhaps did, depending on when you want to speak about it) care about the other. Growing up, they were really all that the other had for playmates (I doubt that they would really want to play much with their female cousins), so they must have gotten along pretty well as kids. Anyway, I really liked how you emphasized that point right at the beginning – it really sets the stage nicely for the rest of the story to come.
One of the things that I really like about your writing style is how you do the dialogue. Dialogue is such a tricky thing to capture most of the times, and I think that you do it really well. I like that you don't overuse the "…he said/she said," at the end of every line. The fact that most of your dialogue stands alone really emphasizes what the characters are saying, as opposed emphasizing how they're standing, breathing, or talking. (I only point this out because I've been working on dialogue recently and I have a rather newfound appreciation for well-written dialogue when I come across it).
"I wouldn't get involved with her anyway."
"Because you're stupid."
"Oy, what's this? Aren't you supposed to be on James's side?"
Sirius shrugged. "You are my brother."
"You're such a girl."
"Prejudiced git."
A perfect example of why I love your dialogue! Besides that, I also adored this conversation between Regulus and Sirius. Sirius was just perfect: he had the humor, the sarcasm, the quick wit, and the concern for James and his own brother. The fact that you were able to convey that in a minimum of words makes me worship your writing. Really.
At the very end, after Sirius leaves, you have Regulus talking about how he's the quieter brother and Sirius is the leader. Although I absolutely agree with your characterization, I sort of wonder about Regulus and how he changed after Sirius left home. I think that he would have, perhaps subconsciously, taken on more of a leadership role in order to prove himself the exact opposite of Sirius and then flaunting that. I mean, the description of his room in Deathly Hallows just screamed, "Polar opposite!" I think that he would have tried desperately to prove that he was the "good son" unlike his older brother, even though he still cared for him.
Moving on, though. I love this story, Mar (could you tell?). The characters – even Rachel and Reeve – are absolutely superb. Just…love.
Author's Response: Oh, Kelly, thank you for your wonderful review! -squishes- And yay because you reminded me that I needed to put up the next chapter...

Thanks Russ,
I'm a newbie to this site but have listened to The Splendid Table for quite some time. This is how I found out about Road Food. Coney Island has so many stories around it that I thought it would be a great story for them to investigate. I know the bank had policy for the tellers to not eat them at lunch as the onions and chili sauce was so aromatic it kinda takes over the environment , in a good way- a real good way . They just posted a map for folks to pin where they are from and where they take frozen bags to, my sister brought me a bag to the mountains of north Carolina one year and I could tell as soon as they got out of the van!

Inkscape tutorial: Advanced
This tutorial covers copy/paste, node editing, freehand and bezier drawing, path manipulation, booleans, offsets, simplification, and text tool.
Use Ctrl+arrows, mouse wheel, or middle button drag to scroll the page down. For basics of object creation, selection, and transformation, see the Basic tutorial in.
Pasting techniques
After you copy some object(s) by Ctrl+C or cut by Ctrl+X, the regularcommand (Ctrl+V) pastes the copied object(s) right under the mouse cursor or, if the cursor is outside the window, to the center of the document window. However, the object(s) in the clipboard still remember the original place from which they were copied, and you can paste back there by (Ctrl+Alt+V).
Another command,(Shift+Ctrl+V), applies the style of the (first) object on the clipboard to the current selection. The "style" thus pasted includes all the fill, stroke, and font settings, but not the shape, size, or parameters specific to a shape type, such as the number of tips of a star.
Yet another set of paste commands,, scales the selection to match the desired size attribute of the clipboard object(s). There are a number of commands for pasting size and are as follows: Paste Size, Paste Width, Paste Height, Paste Size Separately, Paste Width Separately, and Paste Height Separately.
scales the whole selection to match the overall size of the clipboard object(s). / scale the whole selection horizontally/vertically so that it matches the width/height of the clipboard object(s). These commands honor the scale ratio lock on the Selector Tool controls bar (between W and H fields), so that when that lock is pressed, the other dimension of the selected object is scaled in the same proportion; otherwise the other dimension is unchanged. The commands containing "Separately" work similarly to the above described commands, except that they scale each selected object separately to make it match the size/width/height of the clipboard object(s).
Clipboard is system-wide - you can copy/paste objects between different Inkscape instances as well as between Inkscape and other applications (which must be able to handle SVG on the clipboard to use this).
Drawing freehand and regular paths
The easiest way to create an arbitrary shape is to draw it using the Pencil (freehand) tool (F6):
If you want more regular shapes, use the Pen (Bezier) tool (Shift+F6):
With the Pen tool, each click creates a sharp node without any curve handles, so a series of clicks produces a sequence of straight line segments. click and drag creates a smooth Bezier node with two collinear opposite handles. Press Shift while dragging out a handle to rotate only one handle and fix the other. As usual, Ctrl limits the direction of either the current line segment or the Bezier handles to 15 degree increments. Pressing Enter finalizes the line, Esc cancels it. To cancel only the last segment of an unfinished line, press Backspace.
In both freehand and bezier tools, the currently selected path displays small square anchors at both ends. These anchors allow you to continue this path (by drawing from one of the anchors) or close it (by drawing from one anchor to the other) instead of creating a new one.
Editing paths
Unlike shapes created by shape tools, the Pen and Pencil tools create what is called paths. A path is a sequence of straight line segments and/or Bezier curves which, as any other Inkscape object, may have arbitrary fill and stroke properties. But unlike a shape, a path can be edited by freely dragging any of its nodes (not just predefined handles) or by directly dragging a segment of the path. Select this path and switch to the Node tool (F2):
You will see a number of gray square nodes on the path. These nodes can be selected by click, Shift+click, or by dragging a rubberband - exactly like objects are selected by the Selector tool. You can also click a path segment to automatically select the adjacent nodes. Selected nodes become highlighted and show their node handles - one or two small circles connected to each selected node by straight lines. The ! key inverts node selection in the current subpath(s) (i.e. subpaths with at least one selected node); Alt+! inverts in the entire path.
Paths are edited by dragging their nodes, node handles, or directly dragging a path segment. (Try to drag some nodes, handles, and path segments of the above path.) Ctrl works as usual to restrict movement and rotation. The arrow keys, Tab, [, ], <, > keys with their modifiers all work just as they do in selector, but apply to nodes instead of objects. You can add nodes anywhere on a path by either double clicking or by Ctrl+Alt+click at the desired location.
You can delete nodes with Del or Ctrl+Alt+click. When deleting nodes it will try to retain the shape of the path, if you desire for the handles of the adjacent nodes to be retracted (not retaining the shape) you can delete with Ctrl+Del. Additionally, you can duplicate (Shift+D) selected nodes. The path can be broken (Shift+B) at the selected nodes, or if you select two endnodes on one path, you can join them (Shift+J).
A node can be made cusp (Shift+C), which means its two handles can move independently at any angle to each other; smooth (Shift+S), which means its handles are always on the same straight line (collinear); symmetric (Shift+Y), which is the same as smooth, but the handles also have the same length; and auto-smooth (Shift+A), a special node that automatically adjusts the handles of the node and surrounding auto-smooth nodes to maintain a smooth curve. When you switch the type of node, you can preserve the position of one of the two handles by hovering your mouse over it, so that only the other handle is rotated/scaled to match.
Also, you can retract a node's handle altogether by Ctrl+clicking on it. If two adjacent nodes have their handles retracted, the path segment between them is a straight line. To pull out the retracted node, Shift+drag away from the node.
Subpaths and combining
A path object may contain more than one subpath. A subpath is a sequence of nodes connected to each other. (Therefore, if a path has more than one subpath, not all of its nodes are connected.) Below left, three subpaths belong to a single compound path; the same three subpaths on the right are independent path objects:
Note that a compound path is not the same as a group. It's a single object which is only selectable as a whole. If you select the left object above and switch to node tool, you will see nodes displayed on all three subpaths. On the right, you can only node-edit one path at a time.
Inkscape canpaths into a compound path (Ctrl+K) and a compound path into separate paths (Shift+Ctrl+K). Try these commands on the above examples. Since an object can only have one fill and stroke, a new compound path gets the style of the first (lowest in z-order) object being combined.
When you combine overlapping paths with fill, usually the fill will disappear in the areas where the paths overlap:
This is the easiest way to create objects with holes in them. For more powerful path commands, see "Boolean operations" below.
Converting to path
Any shape or text object can be converted to path (Shift+Ctrl+C). This operation does not change the appearance of the object but removes all capabilities specific to its type (e.g. you can't round the corners of a rectangle or edit the text anymore); instead, you can now edit its nodes. Here are two stars - the left one is kept a shape and the right one is converted to path. Switch to node tool and compare their editability when selected:
Moreover, you can convert to a path ("outline") the stroke of any object. Below, the first object is the original path (no fill, black stroke), while the second one is the result of the Stroke to Path command (black fill, no stroke):
Boolean operations
The commands in the Path menu let you combine two or more objects using boolean operations:
The keyboard shortcuts for these commands allude to the arithmetic analogs of the boolean operations (union is addition, difference is subtraction, etc.). Theand commands can only apply to two selected objects; others may process any number of objects at once. The result always receives the style of the bottom object.
The result of thecommand looks similar to (see above), but it is different in that adds extra nodes where the original paths intersect. The difference between and is that the former cuts the entire bottom object by the path of the top object, while the latter only cuts the bottom object's stroke and removes any fill (this is convenient for cutting fill-less strokes into pieces).
Inset and outset
Inkscape can expand and contract shapes not only by scaling, but also by offsetting an object's path, i.e. by displacing it perpendicular to the path in each point. The corresponding commands are called (Ctrl+() and (Ctrl+)). Shown below is the original path (red) and a number of paths inset or outset from that original:
The plainand commands produce paths (converting the original object to path if it's not a path yet). Often, more convenient is the (Ctrl+J) which creates an object with a draggable handle (similar to a shape's handle) controlling the offset distance. Select the object below, switch to the node tool, and drag its handle to get an idea:
Such a dynamic offset object remembers the original path, so it does not "degrade" when you change the offset distance again and again. When you don't need it to be adjustable anymore, you can always convert an offset object back to path.
Still more convenient is a linked offset, which is similar to the dynamic variety but is connected to another path which remains editable. You can have any number of linked offsets for one source path. Below, the source path is red, one offset linked to it has black stroke and no fill, the other has black fill and no stroke.
Select the red object and node-edit it; watch how both linked offsets respond. Now select any of the offsets and drag its handle to adjust the offset radius. Finally, note how you can move or transform the offset objects independently without losing their connection with the source.
The main use of thecommand (Ctrl+L) is reducing the number of nodes on a path while almost preserving its shape. This may be useful for paths created by the Pencil tool, since that tool sometimes creates more nodes than necessary. Below, the left shape is as created by the freehand tool, and the right one is a copy that was simplified. The original path has 28 nodes, while the simplified one has 17 (which means it is much easier to work with in node tool) and is smoother.
The amount of simplification (called the threshold) depends on the size of the selection. Therefore, if you select a path along with some larger object, it will be simplified more aggressively than if you select that path alone. Moreover, the command is accelerated. This means that if you press Ctrl+L several times in quick succession (so that the calls are within 0.5 sec from each other), the threshold is increased on each call. (If you do another Simplify after a pause, the threshold is back to its default value.) By making use of the acceleration, it is easy to apply the exact amount of simplification you need for each case.
Besides smoothing freehand strokes,can be used for various creative effects. Often, a shape which is rigid and geometric benefits from some amount of simplification that creates cool life-like generalizations of the original form - melting sharp corners and introducing very natural distortions, sometimes stylish and sometimes plain funny. Here's an example of a clipart shape that looks much nicer after :
Creating text
Inkscape is capable of creating long and complex texts. However, it's also pretty convenient for creating small text objects such as heading, banners, logos, diagram labels and captions, etc. This section is a very basic introduction into Inkscape's text capabilities.
Creating a text object is as simple as switching to the Text tool (F8), clicking somewhere in the document, and typing your text. To change font family, style, size, and alignment, open the Text and Font dialog (Shift+Ctrl+T). That dialog also has a text entry tab where you can edit the selected text object - in some situations, it may be more convenient than editing it right on the canvas (in particular, that tab supports as-you-type spell checking).
Like other tools, Text tool can select objects of its own type - text objects -so you can click to select and position the cursor in any existing text object (such as this paragraph).
One of the most common operations in text design is adjusting spacing between letters and lines. As always, Inkscape provides keyboard shortcuts for this. When you are editing text, the Alt+< and Alt+> keys change the letter spacing in the current line of a text object, so that the total length of the line changes by 1 pixel at the current zoom (compare to Selector tool where the same keys do pixel-sized object scaling). As a rule, if the font size in a text object is larger than the default, it will likely benefit from squeezing letters a bit tighter than the default. Here's an example:
The tightened variant looks a bit better as a heading, but it's still not perfect: the distances between letters are not uniform, for example the "a" and "t" are too far apart while "t" and "i" are too close. The amount of such bad kerns (especially visible in large font sizes) is greater in low quality fonts than in high quality ones; however, in any text string and in any font you will probably find pairs of letters that will benefit from kerning adjustments.
Inkscape makes these adjustments really easy. Just move your text editing cursor between the offending characters and use Alt+arrows to move the letters right of the cursor. Here is the same heading again, this time with manual adjustments for visually uniform letter positioning:
In addition to shifting letters horizontally by Alt+Left or Alt+Right, you can also move them vertically by using Alt+Up or Alt+Down:
Of course you could just convert your text to path (Shift+Ctrl+C) and move the letters as regular path objects. However, it is much more convenient to keep text as text - it remains editable, you can try different fonts without removing the kerns and spacing, and it takes much less space in the saved file. The only disadvantage to the "text as text" approach is that you need to have the original font installed on any system where you want to open that SVG document.
Similar to letter spacing, you can also adjust line spacing in multi-line text objects. Try the Ctrl+Alt+< and Ctrl+Alt+> keys on any paragraph in this tutorial to space it in or out so that the overall height of the text object changes by 1 pixel at the current zoom. As in Selector, pressing Shift with any spacing or kerning shortcut produces 10 times greater effect than without Shift.
XML editor
The ultimate power tool of Inkscape is the XML editor (Shift+Ctrl+X). It displays the entire XML tree of the document, always reflecting its current state. You can edit your drawing and watch the corresponding changes in the XML tree. Moreover, you can edit any text, element, or attribute nodes in the XML editor and see the result on your canvas. This is the best tool imaginable for learning SVG interactively, and it allows you to do tricks that would be impossible with regular editing tools.
This tutorial shows only a small part of all capabilities of Inkscape. We hope you enjoyed it. Don't be afraid to experiment and share what you create. Please visit www.inkscape.org for more information, latest versions, and help from user and developer communities.

"The Reform Rabbis of the United States see nothing but the darkness in which they have buried their heads," Rabbi Louis I. Newman, of Temple Rodeph Sholom, said in an address at a meeting of the Richmond Hill Zionist District.
Speaking of the relationship between Zionism and Reform Judaism, Rabbi Newman said:
"Pious resolutions of approval of the practical work being done in Palestine may be passed, but their implications do not reach deeply into the minds of Reform Rabbis of their congregants.
"Until the Zionist Rabbis can muster enough votes on the floor of Conferences when decisive votes are taken, so long will anti-Zionist pronouncements be made at Rabbinical conferences and negative judgments on the constructive movements and organizations of Jewish life be issued to the press.
"Palestine marches forward with amazing speed to amazing prosperity, but ostrich-like, the Reform Rabbis are in the dark."
Whether it's local, domestic or foreign, if it's news about Jewish life you'll find it in the Jewish Daily Bulletin.

Amnesty in spotlight over hosting anti-Israel event
Labour Friends of Israel has accused Amnesty of having a "disproportionate focus" on alleged Israeli human rights abuses and of being swayed by "anti-peace" groups.
The criticism came as more than a dozen LFI members, including vice-chair Louise Ellman MP, wrote to Amnesty to complain about the NGO's plans to host an anti-Israel event.
Journalist Abdel Bari Atwan - investigated by police following a university lecture at which he referred to a "Jewish lobby" controlling America - is among those due to speak at the Complicity in oppression: Do the media aid Israel? event, in Amnesty's central London headquarters on May 23.
The event is jointly organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and the pro-Hamas Middle East Monitor Online (MEMO) media and lobby group.
LFI said it was "deeply worried" by Amnesty's approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "Given Hamas' appalling human rights record, and the PSC and MEMO's apologism for this, it is entirely inappropriate for Amnesty to support their work, especially since it has itself documented Hamas' human rights abuses on a number of occasions."
Amnesty wrote to the PSC last month to raise its concerns over the nature of the event.
An Amnesty spokesman said: "We have received a number of letters raising concerns about the PSC and MEMO, which we are carefully examining and will reply to as soon as possible.
"We are still reviewing the event while remaining committed to providing space for free debate on key human rights issues. AI wishes to stress that we condemn all attacks on civilians no matter what the circumstances."
The JC understands that Amnesty bosses may still cancel the event.
In a joint statement, the PSC and MEMO said there had been a "high level of registration" for the event and added: "Both PSC and MEMO condemn all forms of racism, anti-Jewish prejudice and Islamophobia.
"We await an equal condemnation of all such prejudice from those who purport to speak on behalf of Israel, and their clear support for universal human rights and international law."
Palestinian journalist Khalid Amayreh, a regular contributor to MEMO, was this week forced to apologise after calling a Jewish pro-Israel blogger a "kike" in comments posted online.

I bought these two items together about 15+ years ago at and antique market. The dressers looks 1950s to me and I'm not sure about the sofa bed. I've never seen anything like it before. Anyone know what era these are or what they might be worth? I'm currently planning to give them away b/c I didn't think they were worth much. Any ideas?

Reason.com offers a lengthy interview with Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of South Park. In it they discuss the series' satire of the left and the right, and their life long quest for nonconformity. Particularly interesting is the discussion of Comedy Central's maneuverings regarding depictions of Muhammad and Scientology.
This quote from Matt Stone sums things up nicely:
I had Birkenstocks in high school. I was that guy. And I was sure that those people on the other side of the political spectrum were trying to control my life. And then I went to Boulder and got rid of my Birkenstocks immediately, because everyone else had them and I realized that these people over here want to control my life too. I guess that defines my political philosophy. If anybody's telling me what I should do, then you've got to really convince me that it's worth doing.

Written by Cully HoltAlbum: His Hand in Mine
"I'm Gonna Walk Dem Golden Stairs" on the album His Hand in Mine is the twelfth studio album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Victor Records in mono and stereo, LPM/LSP 2328, in November 1960. It was the first of three gospel music albums that Presley would issue during his lifetime. Recording sessions took place on October 30 and 31, 1960, at RCA Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee. It peaked at #13 on the Top Pop Albums chart. It was certified Gold on April 9, 1969 and Platinum on March 27, 1992 by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Elvis had a lifelong, fundamental love of church music, and often used it to rehearse and loosen up before concerts and at the beginning of recording sessions. Presley had earlier devoted an extended play single, Peace in the Valley, to his love for gospel songs, and was eager to record a full album of this music. This fit well with the plans of Presley's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, to steer his client into a family-friendly image as he switched Presley's career concentration toward movie stardom in Hollywood.
All the selections for His Hand In Mine were completed in one fourteen-hour session.~Source Wikipedia

OK, let's get this over with.
One: Link to the person who tagged you. Here. Go look, this person has some really strange quirks, you'll want to read all of them!!!!!
Two: Post the rules. That's this right here.
Three: Write six random things about yourself. See below.
Four. Tag six people. See below below.
Five. Inform the tagees and the person who tagged you.
OK, the six random things are mostly kind of personal, so I've put them below the fold.
- I have spent a total of three nights in prison.
- I have been tagged for this meme three times including this one. I am running out of interesting things to say.
- When I was a kid, my friend Kirk and I planned to grow up to be super heros. We had to sneak into the adult section of the library to read the law books (we figured knowing the law in detail would be important).
- Much later, when I was an adult, a bunch of little kids came by to see what I was digging up (or burying) in the back yard. I told them I was "The Shoveler …. you know, the super hero. From the movies." And they totally believed me. They went and got their other friends, and a crowd formed.
- Almost every long term relationship I've ever had with a woman started when the woman was about 28 years old. that has been going on since I was, like, eleven or something. And I'm only exaggerating by a factor of about 25% in any direction on any of those numbers.
- My grandmother was biggish, and required a somewhat expensive coffin. So when she died the four of us pall bearers had some heavy lifting to do. Then, a week later my aunt died. She was tiny and required (by her religion) the cheapest possible coffin. Same pall bearers. So, when we went to pick up the coffin, there was this moment when we lifted way too hard expecting it to be heavy, then this zero-g effect, then a kind of a thump/thwack noise from within the coffin. Ooops. It was hard to not laugh.
OK, I'm tagging:

A lot of the complexity from strings is that, unlike numeric types, there's no minium/typical sizes to assume for strings. This, combined with the fact that all items within a numpy array have to have the same size, makes string handling complex.

Black man walking with cane arrested
Accused of casing cars for theft, he seeks body-cam evidence
Dorian Hargrove 10:30 a.m., Sept. 21
Seeing as I've been slacking lately1, I'll throw a few bonus listing up. For starters, I really love how >>>TECHNiCAL ViRGiN--A SEXi LADiES BOOk<< - $7 (Normal Heights) "answers all questions you may be afraid to ask" in a mere 55 pages. I'll call that bluff anytime. I've also got to throw props to gaming rocker chair - $20 (normal heights) for magically combining something that was, until now, solely the province of the elderly with another thing belonging entirely to youth culture. Way to bridge that generation gap, rocking chair for Halo nerds! I wonder how she does out on the porch with the fella's?
And the daily Runner-Up-Second-Place-No-Prize goes to:
Canine Super Potency Megavites & Colostrum Chewables - $9
Dog 'roids. 'Nuff said.
I call him Barry Bonds!2
But the day's Big Winner (Receipient of The Bigger No-Prize) is:
6 crt monitors (normal heights)
Ode to Obsolescence3
In the span of one brief decade, I have
seen the state of modern tech advance to
such great heights that now we need not save
our cathode ray tube monitors. Do you
remember when they were somewhat expensive?
When weeks (or months) pay wold be spent
on just one NEC to better view your games and
all your spreadsheets; graphics too extensive
for an Apple II to ever try to represent?
Now, you can have a flat screen in your hand.
I kid you not, the other day my friend found
a SONY flat-screen at a yardsale for the price
of just one-hundred dollars. He talked around
the price point and he haggled it quite nicely
to a twenty dollar discount. My point remains
quite valid--tech grows swiftly obsolete until
you find six CRTs for free online. "Take them!
They do me no good--I try to lift them and I strain
my back! I don't want to send them to the landfill,
since my garbage just might be somebody's gem."
But, I digress, for though I might be so inclined
to prattle without end upon the merits and the failings
of the rapid wax- and wanings of the dead
and dying, up and coming, next-big-thing in tech; sailing
off on tangents is hardly my objective in this thought.
Let's suffice to say that, given time's swift progress
towards it's final (secret) end, the only thing complete
is the knowledge that all our tech is more or less
predestined to become (so quickly, so completely) obsolete.
Well, I has written poem for the first time in years. Crazy, no? I must say, I had entirely forgotten just how hard it is to make one's brain (or at least the part of the brain involved in writing) keep thinking "poempoempoempoempoem" for the duration of the process. The temptation to break into narrative is just so very, very strong. I should be set for another couple of years, poem-wise!
Apartment hunts, work, cleaning, leaky torture swamp fallout--I have my reasons.
I was torn between that and "Lance Armstrong," but I kind of hate that dude and I got no beef with Bonds. The picture of the beefcake whippet is actually kind of a relevant, albeit slightly old, news story. There's technology which blocks the protein myostatin and basically allows muscle growth to go completely berserk. Essentially, turn off the myostatin and get ripped like crazy. Some whippets are born with defective genes; they don't produce the protein and they become beefcakes just like little Barry.
Yes, Pike is well aware that he is not poet.
Rdog's unhappy he didn't get to the 'roids quicker...he's got a really important date with a younger bitch this weekend
whippet...crap..he'd have really liked to try her on for size antiG
Looks amazingly like Barry!!
Yeah, I'm not one to critique or explicate your poem, Daniels can do a heck of a lot better job in that department, but just let me say, your craigslist blogging day job is probably more lucrative at this point. :)
Oh, and let me know if you learn anything from the book.
"plase take them before i go and recycle them"
Welp, now I know what my monitor is worth ;)
As for Pike's ode, let's just say--good form, but he ain't no Keats! ;)
That CANNOT BE A WHIPPET!!!!!!
Appearing Friday night at Canes: Beefcake Whippet!!!
That thing looks more like a Pitpet. Pit Whip? Whip Bull?
Something like that.
I can barely see the outlines of a whippet in that thing, which looks sadly abused. It looks like that SNL sketch where Akroyd and Martin are dressed up in bulky sweats--"We gonna pump you UP!"
Re #5:
Oh, noooo, dear. Much later than Aykroyd & Martin. Hans & Franz were portrayed by Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon.
Aykroyd & Martin were the swinging Checkoslovakian brothers, on the hunt for...FOXES!!!!
Two wild and crazy guys!!! ;)

peach smoothie recipe
Perfect Peach Smoothie
Peach smoothie is perfect for any age or occasion, and you can adapt the following recipe as much as you want. Serve it in martini glasses, tall glasses or another kind, and garnish each one with a peach slice if you want, or a strawberry perhaps. This lovely recipe is quick and easy to make. Simply throw everything into a blender and press the button.
If you find yourself with a batch of fresh peaches to use up, consider making this recipe. You don't have to use fresh peaches. Frozen ones will work too, either thawed or still frozen, and if you're using still-frozen ones you can leave out the ice cubes.
Fruity and Fantastic
Peaches are wonderful in fruit smoothies, and you can also add other fruit, such as strawberries to make a strawberry peach smoothie or consider pineapple, pear, mango, melon or other fruits. Canned fruit is yet another option but drain off the liquid if they are in 'syrup' (which is only sugary water). Continue reading

Islamabad, Dec 15 (ANI): Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has said that his party will collect taxes fairly and eradicate corruption to establish a 'new Pakistan'.
Addressing a function organised by the Insaf Lawyers Forum, Khan said PTI was the only party in the history of Pakistan which was conducting intra-party elections before the general elections, which the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) could not do as they are dominated by one family.
Khan also said that he had requested PML-N to help 'get rid of all opportunists hiding in its ranks'
"Various people pointed out that I criticised PML-N, whereas I requested PML-N to help PTI to get rid of all opportunists hiding in its ranks, while offering them lucrative incentives immediately," the Express Tribune quoted him, as saying.
"The PML-N was making sincere efforts for PTI to make it an ideological party and I thank Nawaz for this," Khan added.
Referring to NAB's report on corruption, Khan said it was enough to gauge the performance and dedication of the ruling parties.
Highlighting PTI's intra-party elections, Khan said it would help bring clean, real and dedicated leadership in the party.
"I trust party members that they would not elect fake people in the elections," he added. (ANI)
