Fox 2 News was actually worth tuning in for on Wednesday morning, to see one anchor's priceless reaction to his co-host dropping the phrase 'dry hump' live on air.
The breakfast team – Jay Towers, Amy Andrews and Alan Longstreet – were discussing what day it was, and hump day is an American phrase for the third day of the week.
'It's Wednesday, right?' Amy asks Alan, who responds, 'I think so we're getting there.'
'Let's hope it's a dry hump day,' she says, referring to the wet weather in their region, not the fully-clothed sexual act, obviously.
However, the phrase wasn't lost on Jay who half way through a sentence, stopped, turned to look at Amy, and let out a long 'ohhhhhh' in recognition.
Classic Jay.
See the priceless moment in this funny video.

Ahhh, condiments. I adore condiments. Especially when they can be twisted and tweaked and turned into dips and such.
This one fits nicely into my keto world, so I whip it up every now and then to brighten up my raw veggie consumption.
As you can see, this packs a bit of a punch. Not for the faint of heart, as they say. However, if you're having some allergy issues or you feel a sinus headache coming on, this could clear it right up : ) Toss some ginger in there and you can go all anti-inflammatory, too.
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 3 Tbsp horseradish
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tsp dry mustard (I use Coleman's.)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground red pepper
Mix all that shiz together. Cover it. Let it chill. Then use it. Sandwhich spread, with cooked meats, as a dip. Whatevs. You do you, boo boo.

65 a golden age strike a contract with companies. In return for receiving something of value, they are prepared to sacrifice personal information. For example, Google's email users are prepared to tolerate targeted advertising surrounding their in- box, in return for a free email service with unlimited memory space. Similarly, the 16- 24- year-old customers of Blyk, a new mobile network, are prepared to receive three to four personalised ads a day on their mobile, in return for a free service. The ad- funded mobile network has over 100,000 users and Blyk says its users don't find the ads irritating because they're so targeted. However, most social networkers are arguably not aware of the commercial undercurrent of peer- to- peer websites like Facebook, who are under increasing pressure to generate revenues. This became clear in 2007 when Facebook launched a controversial ad system called Beacon that broadcast its users' web behaviour to his or her ' friends' even when they were outside the social network. Privacy groups and Facebook users were outraged and the social network was forced to climb down. In the future, businesses will be expected to be transparent about the way they use their customer data. Compared to the wealth of information online, loyalty programmes like Tesco Clubcard are incredibly innocuous. As dunnhumby's Mick Yates points out: " Once people have filled in the form we never go back and check it, we don't need to. We don't need to know about their family life, we're not that intrusive. We just look at what they're buying which is an objective fact. And then to thank them for helping Tesco do a better job we send them rewards." A number of different journalists writing stories on the success of Tesco Clubcard have been surprised by the scant amount of personal information held by the retailer on its customers. dunnhumby's sophisticated analysis enables retailers to personalise their offering without infringing their customers' privacy. Elizabeth Rigby, Financial Times journalist writes: " Two letters, a photocopy of his passport, a letter showing proof of address and a £ 10 administrative charge later. Tesco dispatched my father's data. At 16 pages long, it is bare on detail. It lists all his store visits... and the amount he has spent. It also details the points he has earned... Tesco has not updated the information since he joined the scheme in 1994." We don't need to know about their family life, we're not that intrusive
66 Talk to talk Customer data has never before reached such a revolutionary, step changing scale. Today, dunnhumby analyses the shopping behaviour of 200m households, a huge number that is swiftly heading towards half a billion households. dunnhumby uses this information to target relevant advertising to supermarket customers through quarterly statements, on- line, in- store and outdoor media, as well as fine- tuned messages for the customer clubs. At the moment, while your local supermarket might know what's in your shopping basket, your bank knows what you buy, your mobile company knows where you are and who you speak to, and your favourite search engine knows what sort of holiday you're researching, none of this data is linked together. In the future, companies might start exchanging this data to get a fuller picture of their customers' lives. Imagine for example, if a supermarket linked its shopping information with viewing habits from satellite TV or an internet search engine. This could obviously only happen with the permission of customers, but could lead to enormous benefits for consumers and business. Closing the loop of understanding around media and shopping habits would enable advertisers to see if their TV ads had actually led to a purchase in a supermarket. In turn, this could enable advertisers to beam relevant ads into their living room. Whoever is making sense of customer data is also in the position to manage marketing messages to customers. The accumulation of data from different companies would enable a trusted customer gateway like dunnhumby to send targeted, personalised relevant messages to a mass audience for the first time, achieving Clive's intention of ' mass intimacy.' For example, if Coca- Cola wanted to talk to its customers, personalised advertising could be sent to tens of millions of Coca- Cola drinkers. The holy grail of good, responsible mass marketing. Customers would be grateful too, because it could spell the end of being bombarded by irrelevant advertising. dunnhumby's Rufus Evison suggests that some consumers in the future will log into a ' preference centre' to signal what they are prepared to accept in terms of communications. For example, any colour you like as long as it's any colour you like Customer data has never reached such a revolutionary, step change scale

Temperature monitor saves loads
Enfield-based transport controls firm The OEM Group has strengthened its product portfolio with the launch of SecureTemp, a "wireless" refrigerated trailer temperature alert. The product helps chilled fleets fulfil their due diligence obligations and reduces the cost of spoiled loads and lost orders.
SecureTemp alerts the driver if the refrigerated unit on a trailer fails, allowing remedial action to be taken before a load is spoilt. The 'Search and Mate' system in SecureTemp has two components; a long-life battery-powered RFID temperature transmitter fitted inside the trailer, and an in-cab receiver with an audible and visual LED display.
SecureTemp will allow logistics firms to adhere to the stringent rules which apply to the refrigerated transport sector and, as well as preventing loads from being spoiled, will enable a load to be replaced quickly where delivery times are critical. The key benefits of SecureTemp no communication costs and no cable connection from trailer to cab, a wide temperature band capacity and a simple to install, easy to use and maintenance free unit.
The product has been developed with help from Samworth Brothers Distribution, which has fitted the product to its entire fleet. "SecureTemp will assist us with the strict guidelines that surround temperature-controlled distribution as well as helping reduce costs by saving loads before they are spoiled," says Carl Bufton, distribution manager of Samworth Brothers.
The company trialled prototypes in December 2004. "Samworth Brothers input has been invaluable in the development of the SecureTemp and we are already working with them on the development of a software option which will offer operators 'real-time' temperature information," says Steve Tickner, product manager of The OEM Group.

It's 2015 - we're on the cusp of self-driving cars, commercial space flight, automated homes, and a world without passwords. All right, that last one might be a stretch, but with the release of Android 6.0 Marshmallow, Google has taken us one step closer to the post-password age. With the introduction of its Fingerprint Authentication API, the worlds most prevalent mobile OS has put its weight behind the move towards fingerprint authentication.
With this API, Google has created a native approach for fingerprint authentication across all Android devices. Developers can now authenticate their users on an app-by-app basis for everything from mobile purchases to app sign-in screens and more with just the tap of a finger. There are only three requirements for a user to to be eligible.
- The user's device must have a fingerprint reader
- The user's device must be running Android 6.0 Marshmallow (API 23) or greater
- The user must have registered fingerprints on the device (more on this later)
In the rest of this post we'll explore the new API's, how to support older devices, and also look at some recommended best practices when bringing fingerprint authentication into your app.
API Overview
FingerprintManager class coordinates all access to the fingerprint hardware. Using
FingerprintManager we can check for device support, attempt authentication, and handle any successful or failed authentication attempts appropriately. The first thing we'll need when implementing fingerprint authentication is an instance of
FingerprintManager. This is a system-level service, so we need to call Context's
getSystemService(String) method, passing in the
Context.FINGERPRINT_SERVICE constant.
FingerprintManager fingerprintManager = (FingerprintManager) context.getSystemService(Context.FINGERPRINT_SERVICE);
Checking For Support
Now with our FingerprintManager instance, it's very simple to determine if the requirements mentioned at the beginning of this post are satisfied. First we can call
isHardwareDetected() to receive a boolean indicating if the device has a fingerprint reader. If this returns false we'll need to authenticate our user some other way. If
isHardwareDetected() returns true, we'll next need to call
hasEnrolledFingerprints() to verify that the user has registered at least one fingerprint on the device. Even if the device has the necessary hardware, we can't authenticate a user's fingerprint if we don't have a registered one to compare against.
if (!fingerprintManager.isHardwareDetected()) {
// Device doesn't support fingerprint authentication
} else if (!fingerprintManager.hasEnrolledFingerprints()) {
// User hasn't enrolled any fingerprints to authenticate with
} else {
// Everything is ready for fingerprint authentication
At this point you may have noticed we skipped the API 23+ requirement. Those lucky few of you with a minSdk of 23 or greater obviously won't have to worry about this, but for the rest of us there are two approaches - we can either check our
Build.VERSION value, or we can leverage the support library. We'll explore these in more depth a little bit later.
Assuming all of the requirements are satisfied, we're ready to authenticate. This is done by calling FingerprintManager's
authenticate(CryptoObject, CancellationSignal, int, AuthenticationCallback, Handler) method. Lets break down what each of these parameters does for us.
Also introduced in Android 6.0 to support
CryptoObject is a wrapper class for the crypto objects supported by
FingerprintManager. These currently include
Cipher, and
Mac. Among the security improvements in Marshmallow, Google introduced some new
Keystore features. One of these features is the ability to generate a key using
KeyGenerator that requires the user to authentication before
Keystore will allow the key to be used. Leveraging this secure key with our crypto object, we can create a secure method of authentication. For an example of how all of this looks in code, check out this sample implementation.
This gives us the ability to stop listening for fingerprints. In a typical implementation, this class'
cancel() method will be called in the
onPause() lifecycle method. This ensures we aren't listening for fingerprints while the application isn't available.
This is intended for flags, but currently we should only pass in 0.AuthenticationCallback
This is the listener for fingerprint events. It provides four methods:
onAuthenticationError(int, CharSequence)
Called when a fatal error has occurred. This method provides the error code and error message as its parameters. You should implement this method to notify the user an error has occurred.
Called when a user attempts authentication but the fingerprint is not recognized. You should always notify the user that their authentication attempt failed.
onAuthenticationHelp(int, CharSequence)
Called when a non-fatal error has occurred. This method provides the error code and a help message you can display to the user.
Called when a user's fingerprint is successfully recognized. The
AuthenticationResult parameter includes the
CryptoObject associated with the transaction.
It's important that your application correctly implements each of these methods to create a good user experience.
You can optionally provide a
Handler. If provided,
FingerprintManager will use the
Looper from this
Handler for its inner MyHandler instance.
private void useHandler(Handler handler) {
if (handler != null) {
mHandler = new MyHandler(handler.getLooper());
} else if (mHandler.getLooper() != mContext.getMainLooper()) {
mHandler = new MyHandler(mContext.getMainLooper());
Providing the looper allows us to define what thread to run on and listen for message logging.
Looper looper = Looper.getMainLooper();
looper.setMessageLogging(new Printer() {
public void println(String x) {
Log.d(TAG, x);
mFingerprintManager.authenticate(cryptoObject, mCancellationSignal, 0, this, new Handler(looper));
Test Your Code
To support the new APIs, ADB can emulate fingerprint touch events. If you only have one device running, the command for this is:
adb -e emu finger touch [finger_id]
If you don't have a device with a fingerprint reader, you can use this command with an emulator running API 23 or greater to register and use fingerprints. To enroll one or more fingerprints, go to Settings > Security and ensure you have a screen lock enabled. Once a screen lock is enabled, you can select Fingerprint from the Settings screen and choose "Add fingerprint". When the screen with the fingerprint icon appears, execute the above adb command.
Backwards Compatibility
Most of us will want our apps to support versions of Android earlier than 6.0. There are two approaches I can recommend for this: we can use
Build.VERSION checks to ensure we only use these APIs on devices that support it, or we can leverage the support library. You're likely already familiar with
Build.VERSION checks, so lets focus on how we can use the support library to make our implementation cleaner and safer.
Android's v4 support library includes compatibility versions of many of the fingerprint classes introduced in Marshmallow. On versions of Android below 6.0, these classes will act as though they are on a device that does not have fingerprint hardware. Happily, this eliminates the need to liter our code with
Build.VERSION checks and
@TargetApi annotations. As of revision 23, the v4 support library includes
FingerprintManagerCompat and all of its nested classes -
AuthenticationResult, and
CryptoObject. Additionally there is a support version of
To demonstrate how we can use these classes to achieve backwards compatibility, I've modified Google's Fingerprint Authentication sample project and uploaded it here.
Best Practices
I'll wrap this post up by sharing some best practices for implementing fingerprint authentication. Following best practices helps ensure that our users feel comfortable and confident when authenticating in our application. Here are a couple ways to keep your users happy:Have a Backup
Not everyone will be able to authenticate with a fingerprint, and some users may not want to. Always provide quick access to an alternative form of authentication.Make It Familiar
Users like feeling smart and knowing what to do. One of the best ways to achieve this is by using design patterns they're familiar with. For this reason, Google strongly recommends using the standard fingerprint icon when you're listening for a fingerprint. I've included the icon in the sample application here.Provide Feedback
Correctly implementing the
AuthenticationCallback methods is vital to making sure your user knows what is happening. When
onAuthenticationFailed() is called, notify the user that their fingerprint wasn't recognized. When
onAuthenticationHelp(int, CharSequence) is called, Android has some information that might help your user authenticate - display it to them. When a fatal error has occurred and
onAuthenticationError(int, CharSequence) is called, explain to your user that there was an error. Without this information, your users may get frustrated when they see nothing is happening or, possibly worse, when they see something unexpected happen.
This is more optional - if you see that a device has a fingerprint reader but the user hasn't enrolled any fingerprints, let them know they're missing out on a feature they may enjoy. Display an unobtrusive message or option for them to go to Android's Settings and enroll their fingerprints.
Closing Thoughts
Remembering credentials is a hassle. This is made worse on mobile devices by the need to input these values on small touch screens. Users dislike this experience so much that they resort to things like using "password" or "123456" as their credentials.
Implemented correctly, fingerprint authentication gives us an opportunity to turn this poor user experience into a secure and exciting feature. Hopefully this post and the sample project will help you create something you and your users will love.

Gawwwwwwwd I love these people. I love them in a way that makes me want to check if Jet Blue is running any sort of free flight program from Boston to San Diego if you make the trip once a week…which they're not, by the way.
Isaac and Erin were friends in high school, started dating at 18 years old, and have been married for ten years. Somewhere in their courtship they moved to San Francisco from San Diego. They met Jon Gray in San Francisco. I'm certain they met others while they were there, but they met a soul mate in Jon. I too met Jon Gray in San Francisco, 11 months before Isaac and Erin met him, 14 years ago. Jon talked so much about these two people that their two names soon sounded like one: Isaacanderin. Jon gushed pretty hard about the people he loved and he gushed CRAZY for this couple. They sounded awesome so I started asking about them every time I talked to Jon. Though I didn't know them, I kept up with their lives through Jon. I knew they moved back to San Diego, got married, had two girls, taught high school theater and music. I felt like I knew this family so I was always happy to hear that life was still rad with Isaacanderin.
Jon died suddenly in Brooklyn on April 21st of this year. I got in touch with Isaac immediately. I introduced myself, he had heard of me. Without ever meeting each other, Isaac helped me endlessly through those first few nights of realizing Jon was gone. Finally, after 14 years of hearing the lore, I met IsaacAndErin at Jon's memorial in Brooklyn. I loved them immediately.
As anyone knows who has lost someone they love, the sadness and loss comes in waves without warning. One particularly long and sad night in June grief hit like a sledge hammer. I was desperate to connect to Jon so I decided I needed to photograph Isaac and Erin and their girls in San Diego. I asked if I could, they seemed psyched, we booked the trip.
I arrived at Isaac and Erin's home with my camera and plenty of luggage. I stayed for three days. It might have been the most wonderful three days I've had in a very long time. They have a life I have never seen. They have it all: a beautiful marriage based on friendship, love, and FUN. Their home is constantly full of musicians and artists making music together and having fun. Their GIRLS!?!?! Their girls are kind, hilarious, smart, happy, sweet, adorable, generous…and they harmonize when they sing together! It is truly one of the best families I've ever seen. It's a harmonious, happy, low key, giggly, fun life. The three days I spent with them showed me a life and lifestyle I didn't know was possible. They truly have it all.
Jon has left us with such an incredible gift and this friendship will always be focused on keeping him alive, always celebrating him, talking about him and loving him hard. All the way to heaven and back, baby.
Jon, your generosity has floored me. I love all the people you loved. You had such good taste, man. I love and miss you. We all do.
Tell the people you love that you love them. Don't worry, you won't regret it and you won't scare anyone. Being loved feels good.
The Langen family, baby… enjoy. I did. 🙂
Sighhhhhh….It's days like this one that fill my cup so full that I go to sleep with tears of gratitude in my eyes. This family is sooo delicious. Gorgeous California light floods their home in Mill Valley all morning, their yard is full of lilacs and a magnolia tree, their Bernice Mountain dog named Dewey rounds out the greatness. Little Natalie is a DOLL!! She's so sweet and curious and beautiful and kind and giggly and happy. She's very excited about her new sister, Kate, who got to earth only last month. The lovely mama, Amy, is a marine biologist so when we wanted an adventure, a trip to Stinson Beach was the obvious answer. There, they played with crabs and jumped rope with bull kelp. Adam, the papa, is just the jungle gym that Natalie needs to climb on and love. I thought I died and went to heaven.
One of my favorite families of all time. Thank you endlessly for letting me document a day in your lives. I hope I remember this day forever.
Yaay! Back for another year to photograph the growing McMahon family. Since our last shoot last year (HERE), little Ava has entered the world. She's as cute as a little round button and big sis Emily seems happy to have a new friend around. Like all young families, they're a very busy crew, but unlike lots of families they live surrounded by fruit and fig trees, artichoke bushes, and an herb garden. What a great place to grow up! After harvesting all sorts of fruit we headed out to tu-tu school where cute comes in buckets. Lots of cuties in tutus and lots of french spoken. It was super sweet. Sunset was spent in the McMahon's favorite place: the beach, and dinner was at their favorite pizza place in San Francisco. Melt down? Oh, that happened in the tub!
What a day. Thank you. Enjoy. Love. Obv.
I cannot remember having a baby crush like the one I have on Heidi. She's the kindof cute you try to eat. She's round and sweet and adorable and…insanely cute. Her big brother, Andrew, all of 3 years old is wise and curious and keenly focused on all things car. We had such a wonderful day in Corte Madera, CA. I arrived when Andrew was getting dressed for church and Sunday school and Heidi was having a tea party with her stuffed animals. It was another 80 degree day so after a really sweet time at Sunday school we headed out for a picnic at The Discovery Museum in Sausalito. Everyone chased each other around and enjoyed the amazing weather. Because I was a good kid ;), I got a ride home in their reeeeeeally nice car. I might drive a hybrid now, but a ferrari is surely my next car.
Thank you all for a beautiful day with your gorgeous family. It was such an honor to be with you.

Book 3 in a series, but can be read as a stand alone book.
We met Genesis in book 2, Royal Chase, and I'm so glad she got her story. She's a fire cracker. A wonderful and sweet love story, like a fairy tale, but so real. I love Sarah Wilson's writing. I was swept up in this royal world and didn't want to leave at the end of the book.

We embrace each other in the night.
A weightless feeling
As our eyes imperviously scrape off
Our solitude in the quiet.
Your feelings worn down
And my warped mind are mixing
In a sigh of hesitance.
Pierce me with your fangs deeply,
Until they reach the depth of my nape,
Until the depth of my heartbeat.
If I'm forgiven,
Pierce me like the kiss of forgiveness
In this mortal world shattered
By your fangs.

First things first, I apologize for being so quiet in the past few weeks. Life has been a whirlwind in both events and emotions. Todd and I have been so busy and it has been hard to find the time and energy to sit down and write. And, while I haven't had time to write, I have had time to think. I thought about how complicated and stressful life is right now and how I know I am not the only one dealing with things right now. That everyone is going through something and it's easy to forget that when you are only seeing smiling faces and success stories all over your timeline. But even with all of that, I have the best person by my side telling me that everything is going to be alright.
With everything that has been going on in my life right now, I couldn't be more thankful for my husband. A majority of the things going on in our lives impact him greater than they impact me. He tends to be considerably better at handling his stress than I am though. Through everything that is going on, through everything that is uprooting our lives as they were even a month ago, he is still my rock. He is there every day to make sure that he has done everything he possibly can to relieve my stress, to make sure that I can get at least half a night of sleep and to make sure that I am fed and happy (which by the way, me being fed, generally also means I am happy…). My husband reminds me every day why I married him and why I am so thankful to have him in my life.
I can tell you right now that Todd is and always has been a better person than I am. He is much more patient, kind and forgiving. He can see the other side of a situation without thinking twice about it while I stand in the back being Judgy McJudgerson. Todd will help anyone that needs it and give you his opinion without making you feel like yours doesn't matter. He can teach you how to do anything and actually makes it seem as though he is looking forward to doing it. One of the few problems of being married to such a fantastic person is that on occasion, and by no fault of his own, I feel as though some day he is going to wake up and think about all the times I have sucked as a wife and walk away. Never once has Todd been unfaithful, or threatened that he might leave, or even acted like something I had done wasn't good enough. But still, I worry that because I know that Todd is a better person than I am, that he will find someone better.
I realize that this is irrational, I even realize that most of it is made up and yet still, I think about it every time I say something that would hurt my own feelings to Todd or every time I don't support him in ways that he supports me, the thought crosses my mind. Sometimes it is fleeting, sometimes it is more detailed than I would like them to be. It, just like the rest of my stressors and fears is fading slightly as my own confidence works its way back into my life. While it still occurs often, it doesn't come in the form of dreams. My subconscious doesn't remind me of it every time Todd and I have a disagreement now which is an improvement to say the least.
If there is any advice that I can give to couples is to find out you and your partner's love languages. The Pastor that married Todd and I told us one of the most beneficial pieces of advice for our relationship. He said that we love the way we want to be loved. If you find yourself waking up early and making your partner coffee and maybe a little bit of breakfast and making sure you wake them up sweetly, then maybe you can connect the fact that you too want your partner to do that for you. Or if you notice your partner constantly buying you little trinkets from wherever they go even though you think that the keychain from the gas station is dumb, maybe it would be beneficial to see that they want you to think of them everytime you look at something. It goes into the communication part of your relationship, you need to be able to read them and find out their likes and dislikes. You need to know what makes them tick and what ticks them off. It's not a one time thing either, your relationship should be a constant learning curve. You shouldn't know the answer to every question all the time. If you do, you get bored and mundane.
I know that I am only 22 and my experience in life is minimal compared to a lot of other people. But I do feel that even with my fears, I have a good relationship with Todd. Otherwise I wouldn't have married him. Everyday I learn something new about him and I feel as if he learns something new about me. Without a doubt, our relationship, just like everyone else's is hard sometimes. Sometimes I look forward to coming home to just the dog who won't ask me why I am irritated or annoyed, but every day, I look forward to kissing my husband and experiencing yet another crazy day with him. Every day I look forward to talking to him and every day I look forward to hearing about his day at work. Even when he irritates me and makes me want to lock him in the closet for a minute, I love him and appreciate him every day for it. And if your person doesn't make you feel that way, in any relationship, whether it be friends, family or partners, than maybe you should think about your relationship a little bit more and see what you can do to improve it.

Sublimation Paper
Sublimation Paper is considered as the reliable and cost effective option to generate colorful and bright printed images or text on metal, ceramic and textile items. High performance digital printer or sublimation printer is used to produce high quality images. The developed design can be modified and its color can be reproduced easily. This non fading image remains unaffected even after repeated washing of materials on which the design is imprinted. Sublimation printing design can be generated on cotton and polyester fabrics without affecting their surface smoothness and softness. Quick to dry, this type of printing does not produce any blurred image. Sublimation Paper is reckoned for its high durability, affordable price, ease of handling, excellent strength and standard quality.

Princess Mary has been called try hard, plastic and controlled in a new book written by Dane Trine Villemann, a former journalist for Billedbladet and Ekstrabladet. The Weekend Australian's "Magazine" has published an excerpt of the book, 1015 København K: Et kærligt og kritisk portræt af Kongehuset (1015 Copenhagen K: Mary's Dysfunctional In-Laws). It's a look at the royal family of Denmark and the woman who'll one day be Queen.
Far from a glowing testimony of Mary's time as a princess, Villemann calls upon the stories of those behind the scenes who know Mary, Frederik and the Danish royal family best. One source said of Mary: "She seems so controlled all the time. You sense a fine human being, a decent person, but she never dares let go. She sits there almost forced, and holds back all the things she thinks she is not allowed to express."
Another says: "Mary is far more difficult to get close to. It can be hard to establish contact with her, even when you are face to face, but as soon as there is a crowd, she is on. It seems she is trying so hard to be perfect that she loses herself. Perhaps she thinks this is how a princess should be or perhaps she is still insecure, despite all the training she has received in royal ettiquette. She is hiding behind that princess facade of hers."

Listen up… In the world of audio technology, there are pseudo-superstars, false prophets, and those who claim to be golden ears – but there is no comparison to the straight engineering and audio experience of Jim Hunter - Program Manager and Klipsch Historian at Klipsch Group, Inc.
Company founder Paul W. Klipsch hired Hunter as a transducer engineer in Hope, Arkansas 36 years ago today. Hunter has since served as a design engineer, production engineer, engineering manager, director of design engineering, VP of design engineering and company historian. The Klipsch Museum of Audio History has been on his job description since 1979.
Hunter began his career with the Rola Company, an OEM driver manufacturing company, in 1974. He and PWK co-authored U.S. Patent #4,387,786, an anechoic chamber featuring a multi-functional revolving door. Jim has been a key contributor to more than 150 Klipsch-branded loudspeakers sold in specialty audio retail stores around the world.
Jim has been a member of the Audio Engineering Society since 1979 and a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers since 1974. To put it simply… When Jim speaks, you'll want to listen.
That's why we're beginning a new series on our blog called Good Poop. Jim will be featured in this blog posting stories and historical facts from Jim's personal and professional relationship with PWK and the Klipsch brand.
Up next: What is Good Poop?

Exclusive new Blackbox polling commissioned by the leading regional newspaper, the South China Morning Post, reveals that Hillary Clinton is overwhelming the preferred candidate amongst resident Asians for tomorrow's US Presidential Election (Asian time), despite greater support for Trump in China. Overall, 76% of Asians across the region said they would vote for Clinton vs. 24% for Trump. In China, 61% said they would choose Clinton vs. 39% for Trump.
Our survey covering more than 3600 adult respondents (nationally representative) was conducted between October 12th and October 23rd 2016 across six countries – China, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines.
The survey also highlighted clear differences between China and the rest of Asia in the important area of future Sino-US relations. On all issues except human rights and IP protection, Trump scored higher than Clinton in China, whereas Clinton scored higher on all issues across the rest of Asia. Trump rates best in China on cyber security, the South China Sea and trade relations.

Walker Bag Pattern
I've received many emails about walker bags made for loved ones and some donated to the VA and other organizations
You are awesome!
See walker bag projects made with love from people just like you
Finished size of the walker bag is 12 X 17 inches.
Use ½ inch seams unless otherwise noted
Fabric Selection
Heavier densely woven fabrics work best for this project and will last longer. I have used heavy cotton twill, poly/cotton blends, and upholstery fabrics. The fabric used in the bag shown here was a medium weight blend. I doubled the fabric for more stability. You can also add a fusible interfacing for additional support.
Cut two (2) rectangles 18 X 14 inches for the front and back.
Cut two (2) rectangles 18 X 9 inches for the front and back pockets.
Cut four (4) rectangles 10 X 6 inches for the button tabs.
Finishing off the top edge of the front, back, and 2 pockets
Serger method: Serge the edges trimming off a ½ inch as you serge.
Fold down 1 -½ inches. Press. Sew it down with a straight stitch on top of the serged stitching.
Non Serger method: If you do not have a serger, fold down ½ inch. Press. Fold down 1-½ inches. Press. Sew along the edge of the fold with a straight stitch.
Lay one pocket on the front and the other one on the back aligning them with the bottom edge. Pin in place. See photo below.
Mark a center line on one pocket. This one will have 2 openings. Mark the other pocket 2-½ inches on either side of the center - this one will have three (3) openings.
Sew from the bottom to the top edge of each pocket following along the drawn line. Once at the top, stop with the needle down in the fabric. Turn the fabric and stitch 2-3 stitches across the top on each side of the line. Now sew back down to the bottom for reinforcement.
You won't believe all the stuff folks put in their walker bags. VBG
Button Tabs
Fold the 10 X 6 rectangles in half with right sides together.
Sew along the long side and across one end.
Turn and press.
You will need to serge or zig-zag finish the raw ends of two of these.
See the photo below as a guide. The button tabs are outlined in a narrow black line.
Using the 2 tabs with both ends finished, place the serged/zig-zagged finished end two inches in from the side and one inch down from the top edge of the back. This should make a finished eight-inch flap. Be sure they are the same length or the bag will hang crooked on the walker.
Sew them in a rectangle followed by an X across as shown in heavy black lines on the photo below.
Place the raw edge of the other two tabs, two inches up from the bottom edge of the back, and sew them on as shown by the thick black lines in the photo below.
Final Assembly
Place the front on top of the back with right sides together. Sew the 2 sides and the bottom at least twice for reinforcement. Zig-zag or serge finish the edges.
Sew buttonholes at least ½ inch from the ends of each of the tabs.
Sew the buttons on the front as shown in black in the photo below. Add two (2) small rectangles of stabilizer to the back of each button for added support when you sew them on.
See photo at the top of this page for how to apply it to the walker.
That should do it!
Caution - Be sure to caution the recipient of your walker bag against having heavy objects in the bag or keeping alot of stuff in the bag all the time. It makes the front of the walker heavy and less stable when the front of it is weighted down. It can tip over.
It also requires more energy to use a heavy walker.

Editor's note
Synergy 2016 gives Citrix a chance to show that after one of its most tumultuous years, the company still understands the end-user computing, data center and networking needs of its customers.
With a new CEO and a renewed focus on its core products, Citrix is a different company than it was at last year's Synergy conference. Perhaps the most visible change is the absence of charismatic, longtime CEO Mark Templeton, who stepped aside in October 2015.
But conference attendees will likely care even more about the new developments announced at Synergy, and the content covered in nearly 200 sessions. Since Synergy 2015, Citrix has eliminated many of its non-core products and is in the process of splitting off its GoTo product line into a separate company. The company is now refocusing on what it does best: desktop, application and server virtualization, as well as enterprise mobility management (EMM).
The conference takes place May 24-26 in Las Vegas, and we'll deliver all the news from the show with expert analysis, as well as the winners of the Best of Citrix Synergy 2016 Awards.
