Comments about Camano:
These sandals are great. Really comfortable and that's what I look for in a sandal. I would recommend going up if you need a half size.
Comments about Camano:
I love the shoe, but not the best fit. I wear and ordered a size 10 but they just fit. A 10.5 would have fit better but they do not come in half sizes.
Comments about Camano:
These flip flops are great - I own two pairs. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is b/c they gave me blisters on my feet for the first few weeks until they were broken in.
I've had them for around 5 weeks now and wear them every day, with walking about a 1/2 mile to/from work each day. Very, very comfy and soft...hope they keep making these in the years to come.

Comments about Camano:
I got my husband the terrigal flip flops, which he really liked but unfortunately broke one of the first times he wore them. We couldn't get a replacement of them sadly, so I got him this flip flop in black and brown. He liked them both when he tried them on but strangely the black ones fit smaller than the brown ones?? I still like the terrigals better but these are fine too.

Not as comfortable as I thought they would be for an ugg shoe.

An 82-year-old Burlington man reported missing yesterday morning after he failed to arrive for a dental appointment was located last night in rural Milton, according to Halton police.
At approximately 10:53 p.m., a parks officer with the Halton Regional Conservation Authority was on routine patrol and came upon the scene of a single motor vehicle collision on Milborough Town Line north of Campbellville Sideroad.
A car had left the roadway and struck a tree. It was determined the vehicle involved in the collision belonged to Gerard (Gerry) Hoolboom, who had been reported as missing to Halton police earlier in the day.
Hoolboom was found conscious, near the vehicle. The parks officer immediately rendered first aid for minor injuries and summoned EMS and police to the scene.
Hoolboom was transported to hospital as a precautionary measure and his family was notified that he had been found.
Halton Regional Police credit the assistance of the media and public in the effort to locate the missing man.

The network, server and virtualization monitoring software
OpManager Enterprise Edition
The new OpManager Enterprise Edition is designed to scale the network monitoring and management needs of large enterprises. A sturdy Probe–Central architecture makes it possible to scale as and when an enterprise grows and expands, without compromising on the reliability. Using OpManager Enterprise Edition, you can manage multiple remote locations. It lets you distribute the polling engine by adding more probes for
enterprise network monitoring. The central server is designed to provide the required network visibility across locations, easily scale, consolidate, and report network health over multiple remote probes.
The major highlights are:
The ability to distribute the network discovery and monitoring load across multiple Probes, helps OpManager scale to over 10,000 nodes or 100,000 interfaces. You can monitor remote networks by deploying the Probes in remote sites. You can also deploy multiple Probes in the same site or even in the same network for scalability. Learn more.
Remote Monitoring
The remote Probes are designed to work even behind the firewalls and proxy servers, enabling the administrator to monitor even a wide, geographycally distributed networks. The Probe deployed at each site performs all the network–facing tasks such as discovery, mapping, and fault monitoring to report these back to the central server located at the Operating Center/ NOC/ Datacenter. As mentioned above, even a connectivity loss between central and probe server will not lead to any data loss. The data gets stored locally in the probe database and is sent to the central server as soon as the connectivity is restored. This distributed architecture therefore ensures 100% data integrity. Learn more.
High Availability
Uninterrupted enterprise network monitoring is possible with a good disaster recovery plan that factors in system outage and also an entire site outage (triggered either by a natural calamity or human error). A hot standby for both the Central and Probe ensures you enjoy high availability of your network monitoring software. You need not worry even in the event of a connectivity loss between the Probe and the Central Server because the Probe persists the collected data in a local database and pushes a copy to the central server as soon as the connectivity is restored.

It is not always easy or appropriate to have a human playing the role of the victim during lifeguard training. Submerged victim rescues are particularly difficult because humans cannot always stay on the bottom long enough for novice rescuers to perform a correct rescue. During those beginning practice sessions, a submersible manikin can be very helpful.
Rescue manikins can be used for a variety of skill drills, including the following:
- Surface dive and retrieve
- Swim, surface dive, and retrieve
- Swim, surface dive, retrieve, and carry back
- Spinal injury retrieve
- Spinal injury retrieve and carry back
- Spinal injury rescue and backboard placement
- Spinal injury rescue, backboard, and strap down
- Timed swim with victim carry
- Other drills involving the use of a diving brick
- Transition from water rescue to deck resuscitation
Submersible manikins are available commercially in full-body and torso-only sizes. You can also design a submersible manikin from a store clothing manikin made of plastic or fiberglass. Add weight to the hollow interior of the manikin. Then, just add a swimsuit or other clothing.
- Dress the manikin. Clothing will change the surface texture, making the manikin more difficult to grasp.
- Vary the setting for the manikin drills. In open water, it may be impossible to find a manikin without hand searching the lake or river bottom. If using a manikin in open water, be sure to use cross bearings to establish the manikin drop location. Monitor the current for possible shifts in the manikin's location once submerged.
- Vary the victim size and weight by using child manikins as well as adult manikins.
- Using manikins of different skin color, particularly during open-water training, can challenge the lifeguards' victim recognition skills.
- Blindfold the rescuer for an additional challenge.

Last fall Nick Tucker '11J had an interview for the Thomas J. Watson Fellowship, a $25,000 grant for one year of independent study abroad. If he is awarded the fellowship, Tucker will study the psychological and social effects of AIDS on children in Brazil, Mozambique, and South Africa.
AIDS and children—it's a subject close to Tucker's heart. In recent years the disease has taken both of his parents: his mother, Cynthia DeSimone, and father, Khassiem Abdullah. But Tucker, an economics major and cornerback on the Colby football team, was not left alone.
When Tucker was born—two months premature, addicted to methadone and cocaine—Tucker's mother had realized she had to fight her addictions and couldn't care for her newborn son. The baby was first placed in state custody, but then Tucker's mother was able to have church friends Paul and Lisa Laurion of North Berwick, Maine, take him into their family.
"I've been lucky, because I've lived with my guardians for a while. I've always had a good support system at home," Tucker said. "I had things a lot of kids don't have in my situation, and that's the nurturing.
"It really all comes down to love. I've had that second family … to be there and lend me that helping hand. I know the other direction things could've gone, and it's not as bright."
He was an energetic part of the family, a mischievous little boy. "He would teach my younger son [Dan] how to climb out of his crib at age one and a half," Paul Laurion said. "Then he'd get a kick out of my reaction, so he'd do it again and again."
Tucker stayed with the Laurions until he was two and a half years old, when he and his younger sister, Kianna, moved back in with his mother in Burlington, Mass. "When the state saw that my mother had kicked her addiction, moved into a place suitable for children, and was set up with all the government assistance programs, they granted her full custody of me," Tucker wrote last year.
Tucker's father, who was in prison when Tucker was born, was in and out of his life throughout Tucker's childhood. When Tucker was 4, his mother was diagnosed with AIDS. As her health worsened, she relapsed into drug use and her children moved in and out of her care. Just before Tucker was to enter sixth grade, he and Kianna went back to live with the Laurions permanently.
Paul Laurion immediately noticed Tucker was different, more settled.
"His mom did a good job with him while he was with her," Laurion said.
And Tucker, who had been through a lot and who had been given so much, returned the favor. "He's given so much back, particularly to the Waterville community," said Colby head football coach Ed Mestieri.
Tucker has mentored Waterville-area students since his first year on campus, first as part the football team's partnership with Benton Elementary School and more recently with the Colby Cares About Kids program. When the father of a boy in Mestieri's daughter's class at Lawrence Junior High School died suddenly, Tucker offered to mentor him. Back home in North Berwick, Tucker has worked with kids with autism. "I worked with three different kids for three different summers, ranging from severe behavioral and learning disabilities to fairly functional autistic kids. I worked with one who played football at Noble [High School]. We'd hang out, we'd talk football. We'd even go to the gym. I showed him a few lifts," Tucker said. "I try and keep in touch with the kids as much as I can. ... I try to impart wisdom for helping them succeed. It's very important."
As one of the older members of the Colby football team last fall, Tucker served as a mentor to his younger teammates, too. "This year his senior leadership is outstanding," defensive coordinator Tom Dexter said. "His maturity, the example he sets with his hard work, his great attitude has just been a plus to our unit for sure."
Tucker's football career was nearly derailed by a knee injury in 2008. Early in the season, he suffered a season-ending cartilage tear at the base of his left femur. "It was just a routine play. I was engaged with the guy. I didn't get hit or anything. One of the odder things that's happened to me," Tucker said.
Tucker came back to play in seven games in 2009 and made 26 tackles. Playing corner for the Mules' defense, Tucker often covered the opponent's best receiver on his own. "He has the intangible of a defensive back. He doesn't get rattled. He's calm. He's very athletic, and he's tough," Dexter said. Tucker's final football season ended Nov. 13, when the Mules lost to rival Bowdoin, 26-21. Tucker had 24 tackles and three pass break-ups in 2010.
He plans to return to campus in May to take part in graduation ceremonies. "They say you'll regret it if you don't do it," Tucker said. By that time he'll know whether he's been awarded the Watson, sending him off around the world.
Back home in North Berwick, the Laurions continue to root for him.
"That love from everybody contributed to who he is today," Paul Laurion said. "For sure."

Caps Stats Leaders: Ovechkin dominating the leaderboard
Time to take a look at NHL stats and the Washington Capitals.
First, Alexander Ovechkin is dominating the NHL stat leaders. He is arguably having one of his finest seasons. Last night he did nothing more than score 4 goals and rescue the Caps from a three goal deficit and from crappy first period play by Mike Green. Green committed four penalties in the first twelve minutes of the game, leading to two of Tampa Bay's three first period goals. Mr. Green, you owe the Great 8 a huge thanks for rescuing your poor play.
Ovechkin's four goal night was the third of his career, the other two occurring 2008 and 2007. His four goal night gave him 26 goals on the season, giving him a 6 goal lead over Alexander Steen in the NHL leaders. Two of Ovechkin's four goals came on the power play, giving him 11 man advantage goals on the season, and of course the NHL lead in that category as well. Ovechkin also surpassed Peter Bondra's franchise record (138) in power play goals, now with 139. Ovechkin has amazingly scored 48 goals over his last 52 games.
Green's disastrous first period moved him into the NHL leaders in penalty minutes. Not something the Caps wish to have. Greenie's first period play was so awful that Ovi's fiancee, tennis star Maria Kirilenko, let Green have it on Twitter. It was the most penalty minutes by a Caps defenseman in one game since 2006, previously held by Bryan Muir.
Is Mike Green going for the record tonight??? hellooooooooo
— Maria Kirilenko (@mkirilenko) December 11, 2013
Is Green playing poorly enough to land a health scratch? We doubt Adam Oates will go that far.
On to the NHL Leaders:
Points: Alexander Ovechkin is 6th overall in the NHL with 35 points and trailed by fellow first liner Nicklas Backstrom, who is 9th with 32 points. Backstrom had an impressive five point game last night (1G, 4A).
Goals: The Great 8 is the overall leader with 26 goals, holding a 6 goal advantage over Alexander Steen.
Power Play Goals: The new franchise leader, Great 8, also leads the NHL with 11.
Game Winning Goals: Ovi is 6th in the NHL with 4 game winners.
Over Time Goals: Ovi is leading the NHL with 4 overtime tallies.
Even Strength Goals: Ovechkin is second overall in the NHL with 15 goals.
Assists: The assist machine, Nicklas Backstrom, moved to fifth in the NHL with 25, after adding four last night. Mikhail Garbovski is 27th in the NHL with 17. Is it time to consider a contract extension for Grabovski? The Caps have to be extremely pleased with the decision to allow Mike Ribeiro to walk and inking Grabo in exchange. Grabovski signed a one-year deal in the off-season.
Power Play Assists: Nicklas Backstrom leads the NHL with 15 helpers on the man advantage and Ovechkin is 12th in the NHL with 9.
Shots on Goal: Ovi leads the NHL with 158 shots on net.
Hits: Troy Brouwer is 18th in the NHL with 90 hits. Ovechkin is 24th overall with 84 hits.
Blocks: Defenseman John Carlson is 14th in the NHL with 64 blocked shots.
Total Time on Ice Per Game: John Carlson is the heavy skater in DC,m putting up an average of 24:31 minutes on ice per game. That is 19th in the NHL.
Shooting Percentage: Mikhail Grabovski is 27th in the NHL with a 21.4 shooting percentage.
Penalty Minutes: Rookie Tom Wilson is 17th in the NHL with 58 PIMs. Welcome Mike Green to the NHL leaders. He is now 29th in the NHL with 46 penalty minutes.
Here is a look at a few team stats leaders:
Caps are 7th in the NHL in goals per game with 2.94, but 22nd in the NHL with goals against, averaging the allowance of 2.84 per game. The Caps sit 12th in the NHL with 30.4 shots per game, but are 29th in the NHL in allowing 35.1 shots per game. Caps have defensively struggled in minimizing shots on net this season.
By period, the Caps are 18th in the NHL in first period goals, 4th in second period goals, and 19th in third period goals. On the other hand, the Caps are 25th in allowing first period goals, 10th in allowing second period goals, and 19th in allowing third period goals.
The Capitals are 9-2 in OT/Shootuouts and 5-0 in the Shootouts, including last night's shootout win over Tampa Bay.
Finally, on special teams, the Caps have the third best power play in the NHL with a 243.4 conversion percentage and are 14th in the NHL on the penalty kill, with a 82.6 kill percentage.

Summary of The Ice Museum Summary of The Ice Museum Reviews for The Ice Museum An Excerpt from The Ice Museum
A legend, a land once seen and then lost forever, Thule was a place beyond the edge of the maps, a mystery for thousands of years. And to the Nazis, Thule was an icy Eden, birthplace of Nordic purity. In this exquisitely written narrative, Joanna Kavenna wanders in search of Thule, to Shetland, Iceland, Norway, Estonia, Greenland, and Svalbard, unearthing the philosophers, poets, and explorers who claimed Thule for themselves, from Richard Francis Burton to Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen. Marked by breathtaking snowscapes, haunting literature, and the cold specter of past tragedies, this is a wondrous blend of travel writing and detective work that is impossible to set down. RVIEW: Thule, real or not, is ripe and beguiling material for a literary and geographic adventurer, and Kavenna is formidable on both fronts. . . . Highly cerebral, erudite, refreshing. (The New York Times Book Review)A suspenseful history of a unique intersection of poetry and geography. (San Francisco Chronicle)
A beautiful prose poem to an elusive idea. (Chicago Tribune)
a wonderful mixture of the exact and the fanciful (The New York Review of Books)

AMES - Iowa State libero Kristen Hahn made Big 12 Conference history Monday, becoming the first volleyball player ever to earn four straight weekly awards with her fourth consecutive Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week honor.
Hahn, a Cedar Rapids native, averaged 6 digs per set during ISU's match at No. 14-ranked Kansas State for her eighth 20-plus dig match of the season.
Five matches into the Big 12 season, the junior Hahn leads the way with 6.05 digs per set and is averaging 5.08 overall for the year.
The 23rd-ranked Cyclones (9-6, 3-2) host West Virginia (8-11, 0-5) at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at Hilton Coliseum.
Hawkeyes' Lovell tabs Big Ten honor
IOWA CITY - Iowa sophomore outside hitter Alex Lovell has been named the Big Ten's Volleyball Player of the Week - the program's first since Sept. 18, 2006.
Lovell led the Hawkeyes to road wins at Indiana (3-1) and No. 12-ranked Purdue (3-0) last weekend.
Lovell had a team-best 37 kills, hitting .297 with three aces and 14 digs in the two match wins. In the upset of Purdue, Lovell posted a career-best 24 kills.
Iowa hosts No. 10 Minnesota on Friday and Wisconsin on Saturday. Both matches start at 7 p.m. at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.

As we become more and more of a digital generation, I wonder how we will integrate daily aspects of our lives into the "www" world. Like, how can we celebrate birthdays in a 100% online fashion? What is exciting, about this idea of a virtual birthday, are the innovative options its users can offer. Online users possess a strong sense of community and authenticity. However, as unorthodox as this idea may sound, options are already available to the bold user.
For the users who feel passionate about online gaming, they can organize to meet and play against each other at virtual worlds. For instance, DDO's celebrated its 5th birthday with its users in a purely online manner this past February. Twitter uploaded a website where the company featured a Youtube video featuring 16 famous people—amongst them UFC's president, Dana White. If you want to read more on how these media companies celebrated their birthdays online, check out http://www.cssreflex.com/2011/06/10-popular-website-birthdays.html/. Other sites recommend booking a computer lab or an online forum where everyone invited can meet and contribute by competing in games or creating websites to mark the occasion.
Another area that I have not addressed yet is the birthday gifts. In the web, we have the option of online gifts—but, they may be costly and require you to provide credit information. However, my favourite option available is Mashup Arts . These guys embody the online ethos of our generation, since they use UGC (user generated content), and their app. operates on Facebook. Like the options provided above, Mashup Arts removes the cost pressure, and focuses on the birthday boy/girl. The app. is all about making personalized birthday cards for the person. If you are on Facebook, you may download the app. for free. A feature of the app., named the Automashup, creates a 3 page photo ecard with Youtube video(s), and a personalized title. If you don't like the card, you click "remix", and the app. instantly provides you with new content. Plus, as a way to promoting community spirit, many users can participate in the making of one card.
After reviewing this, I'm excited to see how social media may extend online celebrations.

Report: Details on NHL's opening proposal to players in new CBA talks
Renaud P. Lavoie of Canada's RDS tweeted details of what is believed to be the NHL's opening proposal to the NHL Players Association as the two sides try to hammer out a new collective bargaining agreement and avoid a lockout.
NHL proposal to players: 1-reduce players hockey related revenues to 46% from 57 %. 2-10 seasons in NHL before being UFA.—
Renaud P Lavoie (@RenLavoieRDS) July 14, 2012
3-contracts limites to 5 years 4-no more salary arbitration. 5- entry-level contract 5 years instead of 3.—
Renaud P Lavoie (@RenLavoieRDS) July 14, 2012
All of the proposals are significant changes from the expiring CBA (analysis from Dirk Hoag of OntheForecheck.com), which, you may recall, was hailed as a major win for the owners back in 2005.
Here's a sampling of reaction from NHL writers on Twitter:
What that @RenLavoieRDS report basically means is that unless the NHL is bluffing its ass off, we're heading for a lockout.—
Bruce Arthur (@bruce_arthur) July 14, 2012
NHL proposal amounts to Declaration of War against NHLPA—
Larry Brooks (@NYP_Brooksie) July 14, 2012
I have a feeling the response from Don Fehr and the players wasn't "Where do we sign?"—
Tom Gulitti (@TGfireandice) July 14, 2012
Don't worry folks: The NHL's CBA proposal equates to *only* an immediate 22% reduction in player salaries. #OyVey #LockoutCity—
Greg Wyshynski (@wyshynski) July 14, 2012
UPDATE: Larry Brooks of the New York Post has some more details:
Post has learned proposal not only would reduce share to 46% of HRR as per @RenLavoieRDS but would redfine HRR to dramatically reduce gross—
Larry Brooks (@NYP_Brooksie) July 14, 2012
Post has learned proposal calls for ceiling to be set $4M above midpoint, floor $8M under—
Larry Brooks (@NYP_Brooksie) July 14, 2012
Post has learned proposal would eliminate signing bonuses and mandate same salary in each season with 5-yr term limit—

Click here to view in Xplore.Primates perform remarkably well in cognitive tasks such as pattern recognition. Motivated by recent findings in biological systems, a unified and consistent feedforward system network with a proper encoding scheme and supervised temporal rules is built for solving the pattern recognition task. The temporal rules used for processing precise spiking patterns have recently emerged as ways of emulating the brain's computation from its anatomy and physiology. Most of these rules could be used for recognizing different spatio-temporal patterns. However, there arises the question of whether these temporal rules could be used to recognize real-world stimuli such as images. Furthermore, how the information is represented in the brain still remains unclear. Free Download

The Lady Saints Fall 62-52 at Delta State University
CLEVELAND, MS – North Georgia continued
their Mississippi road trip Saturday evening, taking on powerhouse
Delta State University and falling 62-52 in the final game of the
Margaret Wade Classic at Walter Sillers Coliseum.
The Lady Saints opened the contest in complete control has Brooke Baker caught fire early with a pair of three-pointers and a mid range jumper to give North Georgia a 10-4 lead at the 16:46 mark. The Lady Saints led by as many as nine points at two different occasions in the first half, but DSU came back and cut the lead to six points at the intermission.
North Georgia started the second period much like the first, as the Lady Saints went on an 11-6 run capped by a jumper from Whitney Randolph to make it 36-25 with 15:03 remaining in the contest.
The Lady Statesmen would respond with a run of their own however, as Veronica Walker put a lid on a 12-0 run with a running layup to give Delta their first lead of the game at 37-36.
The Lady Saints took the lead right back at 40-37 on a Syretha Marble layup, but DSU's Kirsten McBride knocked down a pair of free throws at the 8:09 mark to give the Lady Statesmen the lead for good at 42-40. Randoph pulled North Georgia to within a point with 3:09 remaining, but Delta State pulled away down the stretch to come away with the 10-point victory.
Marble led all scorers in the contest with 19 points, while Randolph added 15 and Baker chipped in 13. The Lady Saints shot 44 percent (19-43) from the field, and were just 61 percent (8-13) from the free throw line.
North Georgia (1-1) returns to action at home, hosting Mars Hill College on Monday, November 24, at 5:30 p.m.

As the only senior college of the CUNY system located in the borough of the Bronx, Lehman is fortunate to have access to a wide range of diverse schools. The School of Education has developed what we refer to as a Professional Development Network (PDN) of schools that are partnering with the College in the preparation of educators. While the sites vary significantly, they were chosen because the teaching/learning that takes place at those schools embrace our conceptual framework and offer our students valuable professional development experiences. The College has identified two levels of school participation that are possible: Professional Development Schools (PDSs) and Partnership Sites.
PDSs are a small group of sites where all PDS goals are being met, all core characteristics are in evidence, and the two partners have committed all necessary human and material resources to ensure that the PDS is central to the culture of both institutions. The purpose of the PDS is to combine our resources and work together to improve results for Bronx students, novice teachers enrolled in Lehman College teacher education programs, and practicing teachers. A Lehman faculty member is assigned to each PDS site and is charged with supervising student teachers, providing staff development, consultating with administrators, and identifying funding streams where possible. Currently the following schools have been identified as PDS sites: PS 304 in District 8 and PS 291 in District 10.
Partnership sites encompass a smaller number of institutions that share with us the goals of improving education for children, supporting teacher and counselor education preparation and professional development for teachers, counselors, and administrators, but are not engaged in inquiry as to the impact of the partnership relationship on student and teacher learning. Partnership sites may also share all the goals and core characteristics of a PDS but lack adequate resources for full PDS status. These sites have the potential for becoming PDSs
The overall network is a dynamic one and schools interested in either joining the network or applying for PDS status are encouraged to do so. The co-chairs of the PDN Executive Council are Professors Nancy Dubetz (email@example.com) and Aliexandria Lawrence Ross (firstname.lastname@example.com) and you may direct your questions about the network to them. Elvani Pennil (firstname.lastname@example.com) is the director of field experiences and the Professional Development Network. If you are interested in having your school serve as a site for fieldwork students or student teachers, contact her.

Four day work week, Three day weekend.
Is two days off not enough of a break We at WNTY AM 990, Notty 99 in Connecticut, believe that the two day weekend is just not enough. Instead of the five day work week working eight hours a day, why not cut it short Still get your forty hours a week working ten hours a day for four days, so we can get our proper rest on the weekends. Two days is not enough to relax. On Saturday we run around doing the things we missed durring the week. If you have childern you spend time with them playing games and seeing how their week was at school. On Sunday we celebrate our religion what ever it may be. Then after that we must prepare for the up coming day-o-death...MONDAY. If we have our extra day, If we have those 24 extra hours we can perpare for that monday earlier. Even childern can use the extra day. Get homework done, work on a school project, or they too can rest up for the manic Monday. So sign our petition for the 4 day work/school week. we could all use a little extra rest in our lives.
Matt Thibodeau
We need 1 day to recover from the previous week, (Saturday), 1 day to have nothing on our minds and/or be religious, (Sunday), and 1 day to prepare for the upcoming week, (Monday). People would be happier and more well-rested for the next week. You could just remove the 8 hours from Monday and tack on 2 hours to the 4 following days. You won't be losing any time. And nothing really gets done in Monday anyway so why not throw the extra hours on to days where we are productive and ready to work?

Hi All,
Suppose I'm building a simple rectangular structure and I lay out everything with string to establish the sides and elevation. Paralleling the strings is easy, but to square it up, I'd measure the diagonals, right? Well, is there an easier way than to shift, check, shift, check, shift, check to make them equal and thus square?
So, given a parallelogram with sides equal to X and Y, diagonals equal to D and E and unknown angles, is there a formula I can plug this in to such that I get answer that tells me how much to shift one side such that I get a rectangle with sides equal to X and Y, diagonals equal to D equal to E and 90 degree angles?
I have strings setup, but even with a helper, I think it's going to be tough to accurately measure the diagonals over and over again. Maybe set up extra batter boards to stretch a tape across?

Amazing 3D Pencil Drawings by 17 Year Old FredoBy Tomas • Oct 10th, 2011 • Category: Art, Latest Posts
Young Chilean artist Fredo draws absolutely mind-blowing three-dimensional pencil drawings that look like they're about to jump off the page. Well, actually, he's already 20 years old at the time of writing this article, but our title is not completely a lie – majority of his works were submitted to Deviant Art back in 2008 or even 2007 when he was 16-17 years old. Some of his 3d drawings took him only 30 minutes to complete, but there were cases when he needed a whole month.

When loading the My Widi application, I get an error message saying " My Intel Wifi Technology not enabled. Restart computer and try again" I have restarted my computer several times and still not working. The wifi is enabled. Any suggestion what to do. I have upgraded the firmware and software for the Wifi. Plus when I launch the Wifi Technology ( the newest software update) it doesn't recognize my Belkin Screencast.
Hello byzalot2,
From the description it seems that the Intel® My WiFi Technology may be corrupt, what you can do is reset the feature. To do this, follow the steps below:
1- Go to Start, Control Panel, Programs, Uninstall a programs
2- Double-click on the Intel® PROSet Wireless Software
3- This opens the "Install Shield Wizard" window
4- Click on "Next" select "Modify"
5- Click on the drop-down menu left to "Intel® My WiFi Technology"
6- Select the last option "X this feature will not be available"
7- Click on "Next", wait for the "Install Shield Wizard" to finish and click on "Finish"
8- Now to reinstall the feature, follow the steps from 1 to 5 then 9 and 10.
9- Select the last option "This feature, and all sub-features, will be installed …."
10- Click on "Next", wait for the "Install Shield Wizard" to finish and click on "Finish"
This would have reset this feature, you should be able to open the wireless display software, it would automatically enable this one and scan for your Belking* adapter. You may need to disconnect and plug back in the power of the Belking* adapter to reset it.

Premo!® Sculpey® Bargello Patterned Earrings
These pretty patterned earrings can be created with any mix of colors. Add metallics or bake-safe crystals for a great embellishment!
Designed by Iris Weiss for Primo!® Sculpey®.
Material List
- Premo! Sculpey® Oven-Bake Clay - Colors of Choice (4 or 5; Less than 1/2oz. Each)
- Premo! Cutters, Mini - Basic Shapes
- Clay Dedicated Pasta Machine
- Toothpick
- Earring Wires
- Jump Rings
- Pliers
Craft Notes
Start with clean hands and work surface area. Good work surfaces include wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Knead clay until soft and smooth. For best results, clean your hands between colors. Bake on oven-proof glass or metal surface at 275 °F for 30 minutes per ¼" in thickness. For best baking results, use an oven thermometer. DO NOT USE MICROWAVE OVEN. DO NOT EXCEED THE ABOVE TEMPERATURE OR RECOMMENDED BAKING TIME. Wash hands after use.
Begin by preheating oven to 275 °F. Test temperature with oven thermometer for perfectly cured clay. Condition all clay by kneading in your hands until soft and pliable or by running it through the Clay Dedicated Pasta Machine several passes on the widest setting. Fold the clay in half after each pass and insert the fold side into the rollers first.
Condition each color of clay until soft and pliable. This is an important step in this project, soft clay makes creating the bargello pattern much easier.
Roll each color into a thin coil, about 12-14" long.
Twist the coils together.
Fold over the twisted coils and twist some more.
Push the twisted coils together, compressing the coil.
Flatten the coil, creating a striped rectangle of clay about 3" across and 1¾" from top to bottom.
Using the toothpick, drag along the surface of the clay against the lines.
Pass the clay through the clay dedicated pasta machine on the #4 setting. Pass the clay through with the arches face up.
Using a solid color, create an additional sheet of clay using the #5 setting on the pasta machine.
Carefully lay your bargello patterned piece on top of the solid sheet, avoiding air bubbles.
Use a shape from the Mini Cutter set that you'd like for your earring. Cut out your earrings. Use the toothpick to add holes at the top of the earrings.
Bake as directed. Use two jump rings to add ear wire to earring.

I needed a new skirt, something good for work and also for casual parties with friends. I had a huge left over of a beautiful raspberry coloured silk taffeta I used few years ago to make cushions for my new sofa :-O… and decided to use them for my skirt!
I took the pattern of a tulip skirt from Burda September 2007, #116B, and altered it a bit to add a silvery "passepoil" along the belt seam and the italian pockets. This is a good way to emphasize the details of a garment, and so easy to do with a simple bias. I also finished the inner seam allowance on the back seam with grey bias. This gives a nice finish as well as the hand sewn hems!

Mt. Pilatus
Unlike Queen Victoria, who rode to the summit of this 6,953-foot mountain by mule in 1868, you can travel to Mt. Pilatus via cable car. At the top, a grand 19th-century "mountaineer's" hotel is the centerpiece of the surprisingly stroller-friendly mountain peak.
The mountain was named either from the Latin pileatus (wearing a cap), to refer to its frequent cloud covering, or, more colorfully, for the ghost of Pontius Pilate, who supposedly haunts the summit. (His body, it was said, was brought here by the devil.) For centuries it was forbidden to climb the mountain and enrage the ghost, who allegedly unleashed deadly storms.

20 Questions with Ron & Yvette Farris, Owners of Air Control Corporation, Springvale, AR
Originally published: 10.01.13 by Terry Tanker
HVACR Business Publisher Terry Tanker sat down with 2013 Tops-In-Trucks Fleet Design Contest winners Ron and Yvette Farris owners of Air Control Corporation in Springvale, AR. They discussed managing a business together, service agreements, re-branding, sales leads, marketing, delegating responsibility to employees and hot-selling products this year.
1. This is your 20th anniversary in business — how are you celebrating?
We've been too busy to celebrate (knock on wood). We decided to have our celebration at our annual meeting and Christmas Party at the end of the year.
2. Do you have anything special planned?
I'll never tell! But I will say part of the celebration includes having new uniforms and jackets made for all of our employees that feature our new logo designed earlier this year.
3. What specifically added to your work load?
Builders with new construction work has really picked up. That added to an already busy summer doing service and replacement.
4. Looking back, what were some of the larger challenges over the years?
Balancing our workforce to workload. We've always had a much larger work load in the summer. The other big challenge has been delegating work to employees, but it is certainly liberating when you do.
5. Prior to opening Air Control what were you doing?
Ron was managing an hvac/plumbing business and I was an office manager.
6. Can you tell me more about the Circle of Excellence Award you received from Lennox?
It is an award given to the top 2 percent of Lennox dealers. They give the award based on sales, great customer feedback, rebates and business marketing and management. It's very prestigious, and we've been honored to receive it each of the past three years.
7. Do you incorporate awards like these into your marketing?
We haven't done it in the past, but we are starting to now. We've featured the award on our website. We believe it will help customers differentiate us from our competitors. We like to concentrate our advertising messages on customers needs and the services we provide that help them.
8. What other types of marketing do you conduct and what works best?
Television, newspapers and direct mail. But referrals and word-of-mouth still account for the majority of our business. The truth is, they work together. We know there is a good chance prospects have already been exposed to one of our communication messages.
9. In June, you were named one of our Tops-In-Trucks Fleet Design Contest winners. How did you decide to make that investment in your fleet?
It was a big decision to purchase the wraps. We have always been cautious about spending, but once we had the vehicle wrap design completed, we knew it was going to actually be an "investment" and help increase our business. Customers really notice our vehicles, and we know it's paying off.
10. You do a nice job outlining maintenance agreements on your website. How many customers take advantage of those?
Since we made maintenance agreements a priority, quite a few customers have signed up. We didn't push them in the past, but we realize now how important they are.
11. Was integrating your brand on your fleet and website part of an overall strategy?
Yes. Our strategic plan and process was to develop the logo, wrap our fleet and then revamped our website to include the new logo. We kept the colors we've had since 1993, but obviously, the entire look is much different and better.
12. You've done a nice job of incorporating Angie's List comments into your site. How did that come about?
We noticed they were advertising heavily in our area. We thought it would be a good idea to try it. As their customer base has grown, so have the leads. We have customers mention Angie's List to us, and many people use the coupons we have on their site.
13. What's your favorite customer service story?
One of our first customers was an older couple from California. He was a retired home inspector. We did several installs at various homes they bought. They referred us to their friends and wrote us wonderful letters telling us what a good job we had done for them. They didn't have any family here, and we started inviting them over for holidays. They had financial issues as so many retired couples do, so we hired the gentleman to do work in our shop for a while. He was wonderful to have as part of our team and everyone enjoyed having
him there.
14. What are the hot selling products this year?
WiFi Thermostats, variable speed furnaces and two-stage outdoor units.
15. You offer zero down and financing up to 60 months. Who's your financing partner?
We recently started using Wells Fargo because they offered plans that were very appealing to our customers.
16. Husband and wife teams are common in our industry. How do you split up the duties?
Ron is in charge of sales, builders and a lot of the marketing. He also schedules the installations and goes to the job site if there is a technical or installation question. I oversee the office, financials, work flow, after sale follow up, on-line marketing, customer issues, payroll and benefits.
17. How long have you two worked together?
About 22 years.
18. Are there other family members at Air Control?
Yvette's mom runs errands for us and bakes everyone a cake on their birthday.
(Terry: That's awesome!)
19. How do you make things work smoothly at work when they may not be at home?
If we have rough patches at home, we try not to make much of that at the office. It's harder for us to keep work at work. Our business is 24/7 and we tend to get drawn back into it when we are at home with after hours calls from customers and employees. We get better at it every year though.
20. What are the larger goals moving forward?

The next step is to begin to delegate more and more to the qualified team of individuals we have. Once completed, that should offer us more flexibility, both personally and professionally.
