Edmunds Says
The 2011 Lincoln MKX is a well-equipped luxury crossover that's now fully competitive thanks chiefly to this year's substantial improvements in performance and interior quality.
What's New
For 2011, the Lincoln MKX gets substantially revamped with more power, freshened styling, new features and a more luxurious interior.Read more
Lots of standard features; ample passenger space; innovative technology; comfortable and quiet ride.
Sometimes, things make a visual promise that isn't realized in the end. Maybe it was that fancy chocolate cake your aunt made that didn't taste quite like you anticipated. Or it could've been a dream date that turned into a nightmare -- who knew such a looker could have such poor manners? Sadly, Lincoln's MKX has been a member of this hall of shame; in past reviews we've noted that its attractive styling couldn't hide its lackluster driving dynamics, weak brakes and subpar interior materials. But the 2011 Lincoln MKX gets it right, with substantial improvements in performance, features and overall quality that make it a worthy entry in the midsize luxury crossover segment.
Although the MKX crossover SUV already had good looks, it nonetheless gets a face-lift this year in the form of Lincoln's new "winged" grille, curvaceous front fenders and new taillights, that all serve to further differentiate it from its cousin, the Ford Edge. In the cabin, improvements come by way of higher-quality materials, redesigned seats, richer accents, including genuine aluminum trim and an enhancement to the Sync multimedia control system that's dubbed MyLincoln Touch. The latter provides a more intuitive touchscreen interface (much like a smartphone's) as well as additional voice commands.
Along with other tweaks, these upgrades put the Lincoln on more even footing with the impeccably trimmed cabins of rivals such as the Lexus RX 350. Many luxuries that are optional on competing models are also standard on the 2011 Lincoln MKX such as a power tailgate, remote start, power front seats with heating and ventilation, leather upholstery and rear parking sensors.
Under the updated sheet metal is a 3.7-liter V6 that achieves the impressive dual feat of having both impressive horsepower and respectable fuel mileage. With 305 horsepower, it makes 40 hp more than the previous 3.5-liter mill. Fuel economy is up slightly, too, with a combined fuel mileage estimate for the front-drive version of 21 mpg. Furthermore, the previously criticized brakes that produced rather long stopping distances were addressed as well, with beefier components that promise a more confident feel and shorter panic stop distances.
Although these updates are praiseworthy, it's still likely worth your time to shop around some. The luxury crossover SUV segment is chock-full of worthy candidates, including smaller choices like the 2011 Audi Q5, 2011 BMW X3, 2011 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 and 2011 Volvo XC60 as well as midsize models like the 2011 Acura MDX and Lexus RX 350. You might also check out the related Ford Edge Sport; while it's not premium badged, the ownership experience is going to be pretty similar. But overall the Lincoln MKX, now having the substance to back up its style, is a solid choice.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2011 Lincoln MKX is a five-passenger crossover SUV available in one trim level. Standard equipment includes 18-inch alloy wheels, a capless fuel filler, keyless ignition/entry, rear parking sensors, auto-dimming interior and driver-side exterior mirrors, the MyKey system (allows owners to limit a vehicle's top speed and radio volume), a power liftgate, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather seating, heated and ventilated power front seats, driver memory functions, a tilt-and-telescoping steering column, MyLincoln Touch and Sync electronics interface systems (includes Bluetooth and iPod interface) and a 10-speaker stereo with a CD player, satellite radio, USB/iPod/auxiliary audio jacks and an SD card reader.
The Premium package adds 18-inch polished alloy wheels, adaptive xenon headlights, rain-sensing wipers, a rearview camera, interior mood lighting, a heated/power-adjustable steering wheel, upgraded leather upholstery and heated second-row seats.
The Elite package includes all that plus 20-inch chrome wheels, a panoramic sunroof, a blind spot warning system, an upgraded THX-certified audio system and a hard-drive-based navigation system that features 10GB of digital music storage and Sirius Travel Link. Many of the Elite's upgrades are also offered as stand-alone options. A Limited Edition package features 20-inch polished alloy wheels, bronze leather upholstery with black accents, unique textured metallic trim and monogrammed floor mats.
Separate option highlights include adaptive cruise control, wood interior accents, a THX-certified surround-sound audio system (with HD radio) and a DVD rear entertainment system.
Powertrains and Performance
The 2011 Lincoln MKX is powered by a 3.7-liter V6 that makes 305 hp and 280 pound-feet of torque. There is a choice of front- or all-wheel drive. A six-speed automatic transmission with manual shifting capability is standard.
Fuel economy ratings are 19 mpg city/26 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined with front-wheel drive and 17/23/19 for all-wheel-drive models. When properly equipped, the MKX can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
Standard safety equipment for the MKX includes antilock disc brakes (with brake assist), stability and traction control, front side airbags and side curtain airbags. A blind spot warning system is optional.
The Lincoln MKX has not been rated using the government's new, more strenuous 2011 crash testing procedures. Its 2010 ratings (which aren't comparable to new 2011 tests) were a perfect five stars for frontal driver and side-impact protection with frontal passenger protection earning four stars. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the MKX its highest rating of "Good" for frontal-offset and side-impact protection and a second-best "Acceptable" for roof-strength integrity.
Interior Design and Special Features
The 2011 Lincoln MKX boasts a well-trimmed cabin with handsome stitching, real aluminum accents and quality materials throughout. There are plenty of standard and optional creature comforts like heated and ventilated front seats, optional heated rear seats and a plethora of entertainment options. Both rows of seats offer plenty of space -- particularly in back, where three people can fit comfortably, a rare feat for any midsize crossover.
Behind the seats there are 32.3 cubic feet of available cargo space. Flip the second row down and that expands to 69 cubic feet, which is more than you'll see in the Audi Q5 and Mercedes GLK, but smaller than the capacities of the Acura MDX and Lexus RX 350.
Driving Impressions
The 2011 Lincoln MKX's 3.7-liter V6 is smooth and furnishes brisk acceleration, though the transmission can sometimes be reluctant to downshift unless you nearly floor it. We suspect that latter quirk is a result of fuel economy-minded transmission calibration that helps to reduce the crossover's appetite. Steering is decently weighted, while handling -- if not as sporty as the athletes of this class (such as the BMW X3) -- is certainly competent, with a buttoned-down demeanor through the curves. The MKX hasn't forgotten that it is a Lincoln and as such offers a cushy ride along with a cabin that's notably quiet, even at higher freeway speeds.

Two words: fit & flare...
Our Black Zip Neckline Fit & Flare Dress, £69, creates a killer defined waist.
Often considered the most coveted body shape – thanks in large part to its iconic protagonist, Marilyn Monroe – the hourglass, with its nipped in waist and curvaceous hips, is the physique we'd all be quite happy to be born with. Think about it – from the aforementioned Ms Monroe to Dita von Teese, females blessed with hourglass figures seem to ooze natural sex appeal.
Marilyn Monroe and Dita Von Teese flaunting their hourglass figures in fit & flare dresses.
But what if we told you that you could create an hourglass figure without Marilyn and Dita's genetics or endless ab crunches? What if there was a dress out there that could do it for you? Well, there is, and it happens to be our signature dress style. We're talking, of course, about the fit & flare dress.
Fit & flare dresses are universally flattering because they mimic the hourglass shape, even if the woman wearing them has a different body type altogether. They work magic at cinching in the waist, accentuating naturally small middles or creating the illusion of a tinier waist for women with less definition. They're inclusive too – if your hips and thighs are curvier, they'll drape over them flatteringly, if you're boyish or athletic, they create the appearance of shapely curves. Broad shoulders? The flared hemline will balance out your silhouette.
Elegant by nature, fit & flare dresses will take you from the office to weekend to special occasions. From black fit & flare to midi fit & flare to fit & flare dresses with sleeves, we've got one to suit every style. Think soft fabrics or knitted styles when you want something more laidback, then look for luxe satin and thick crepe for evenings and events. More structured fabric are great for softening the look of wider hips. Jacket-wise, go for cropped styles that sit just above the waistband to show off your newfound hourglass shape. Marilyn who?

Dhanashree Thorat
Dhanashree Thorat (Ph.D. in English, University of Florida, 2017) situates her research at the intersection of Digital Humanities, Postcolonial Studies, and Asian American Studies. Her work investigates the manner in which digital spaces, specifically digital archives and social media, codify hegemonic narratives of Muslims in the post-9/11 moment, and how Muslims use these same spaces to articulate political agency and intervene in mainstream conversations about their racialized bodies.
Dhanashree is a founding Executive Council member of the Center for Digital Humanities, Pune in India. She serves as the lead organizer for a biennial winter school on Digital Humanities, and advises the center on digital archival projects and DH curriculum development. She has written about her experiences with building DH networks in the Global South as a HASTAC Scholar (2015-2016), and is currently working as the issue editor for Asian Quarterly, a peer reviewed scholarly journal, for a special issue on 'Digital Humanities in India' to be published in 2017. At the University of Florida, she has served as co-convenor of the Digital Humanities Working Group, and was the lead co-ordinator for the first THATCamp Gainesville. She was also part of the committee that developed the Digital Humanities Graduate Certificate at UF. She has organized and led DH workshops on various topics including digital archiving, feminist digital humanities, and digital pedagogies.

I got my very first facial and it felt AMAZING, my face is still softer than a babies butt! The facial was called the " HydraFacial", this facial is the only hydradermabrasion procedure that combines cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and antioxidant protection simultaneously, resulting in clearer, significantly more radiant skin with no discomfort or downtime. This procedure is suitable for most skin types, including thin or aging skin, ethnic skin and dry skin/oily skin. I also got so many goodies from the other vendors there.
Sothys eye control gave me a cream to apply under my eyes to reduce puffiness and dark circles. I have been applying it every morning and night and it has already made me look as if I actually got a good amount of sleep!
South Seas Spray Tanning gave me a spray tan and left my skin looking golden brown with no streaks! I feel so much better about myself when I am tan, so it was nice to find a good spray tanning company that doesn't leave you ORANGE, cause nobody likes an orange girl haha.
BLINC make-up CO gave me an awesome eyebrow mousse that gives me gorgeous brows in one easy step! They also gave me a super thin eyeliner pen and mascara that is smudge and water proof! HOW FREAKING AWESOME!
PURE Inventions gave me this awesome peach green tea extract that you add to your water that provides you with antioxidants to keep your body healthy! And it tastes AMAZING!
Salt of the Earth is a home grown company that creates fresh, down-to-earth spa treatments. It is a mixture of natural ingredients with essential scents to create unique bath and body concoctions. I had an awesome experience at this vendor because its a hands on experience and I got to make my own body lotion.
I had such an awesome time at this event and I can't wait to use all of my new products!
Stay Lovely! xoxo Kendall Rae

The Irish Baroque Orchestra, with mezzo-soprano Sharon Carty and director Claire Duff
13th October 2017
Time: 8 pm
Venue: Curtis Auditorium, CIT Cork School of Music
Cost:€25, 20,15 & 5
Irish Baroque Orchestra & Late Night Lute Recital
Prodigies and Premieres
The Irish Baroque Orchestra, with mezzo-soprano Sharon Carty and director Claire Duff, performs 17th and 18th Century Italian Arie di Baule ('suitcase arias'), including works never previously performed or recorded in Ireland. The main concert is followed by a late night recital as Thomas Dunford plays solo lute music by John Dowland and J.S. Bach.
Irish Baroque Orchestra | "Prodigies and Premieres" N. Porpora: In braccio a Mille furie from "Semiramis riconosciuta" G. Kapsberger: Toccata no.1 for solo lute G.F. Handel: Mi lusinga il dolce affetto from the opera "Alcina" F.M. Veracini: Fugo, o Capriccio con Quattro soggetti for strings and continuo N. Porpora: Parto , ti lascio from the opera "Germanico in Germanio" A. Vivaldi: Trio sonata in d minor, RV 63 "La Follia" A. Vivaldi: Sonata a 4 'al Santo Sepolcro' RV 130 A. Vivaldi: Sovvente il sole from "Andromeda Liberata" G. Kapsberger: Toccata no.6 for solo lute J.A. Dalza: Calata ala spagnola for solo lute R. Broschi: Qual guerriero in campo armato from the opera "Idaspe" Thomas Dunford | "Late-night Lute: From Dowland to Bach" [Thomas Dunford] John Dowland Fortune A fancy Semper Dowland Semper Dolens Miss's Winter's Jump A dream King of Denmark's Galliard Melancholy Galliard La mia Barbara Lachrimae Frog Galliard J.S. Bach Suite in G minor, BMV 995 The Irish Baroque Orchestra is like no other group performing in Ireland today. Driven by the belief that the best things in life stand the test of time, the orchestra allows Irish audiences to experience the beauty of baroque music as it was intended to be heard. Under the inspirational artistic direction of Monica Huggett, each member of the orchestra continuously seeks to explore the playing techniques and performance styles of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and performs only on baroque instruments or modern replicas. The result is as vivid as a freshly restored oil painting: the colour, simmering tension, and highly charged emotion of this incredible music bursts to the surface, carrying the listener back 300 years to the fascinating sights and sounds of 18th Century Europe. Although the IBO has its roots in the past, it is a dynamic and constantly evolving organisation with its sights firmly set on the future. Today, its exceptional musicians perform regularly throughout Ireland and abroad, and continue to receive widespread critical acclaim.
The IBO Chamber Soloists (IBOCS) is a formidable smaller ensemble comprising core players, and this permits further possibilities for vibrant and memorable performances of smaller projects. The IBO seeks to keep the tradition of baroque music alive for future generations, and so education and recording initiatives are a vital aspect of its work.
From 2008 – 2013 the orchestra was ensemble in residence at the DIT Conservatory of Music and Drama. In March 2013 the IBO became resident at the National Concert Hall Dublin where it works regularly with national and international students on baroque repertoire and playing techniques. 'Flights of Fantasy', a recording of early Italian chamber music was released in 2010 on the Avie label, and received a glowing international response. The disk was subsequently listed in the New Yorker's most memorable moments in music for 2010: top recording of the year. The Irish Baroque Orchestra is generously funded by the Arts Council / An Chomhairle Ealaíon. It also receives financial support from Dublin City Council. The orchestra has its own collection of period instruments, purchased some years back with the assistance of an Arts Council capital grant and the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
Thomas Dunford (lute) [IBO Thomas Dunford 2]
Born in Paris in 1988, Thomas Dunford discovered the lute at the age of nine, thanks to his first teacher Claire Antonini. He completed his studies in 2006 at the Conservatoire Supérieur de Paris (CNR), when he obtained a unanimous First Prize with honours in the class of Charles-Édouard Fantin. Thomas continued his studies at the Schola Cantorum in Basel with Hopkinson Smith, and was awarded his Bachelor's degree in 2009.
IBO Thomas Dunford 2
From September 2003 through to January 2005, Thomas gave his first performances playing the role of the lutenist in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night on stage at the Comédie Française. Since then, Thomas has played recitals in New York's Carnegie Hall and London's Wigmore Hall, and made numerous solo or ensemble appearances in the most prestigious European festivals, including Ambronay, Arc La Bataille, Bozar, La Chaise-Dieu, Nantes, Saintes and Utrecht, and has also performed further afield in the United States, Israel, China, Japan and India. Thomas has recorded extensively with leading ensembles including Cappella Mediterranea, Ensemble Clematis, La Serenissima, À Deux Violes Esgales, Capriccio Stravagante, Pygmalion and Arcangelo. He is attracted to a wide variety of music including jazz, and has collaborated in chamber music projects with conductors and soloists including Paul Agnew, Leonardo García Alarcón, Nicola Benedetti, Alain Buet, William Christie, Jonathan Cohen, Christophe Coin, Iestyn Davies, Bobby McFerrin, Monica Huggett, Alexis Kossenko, François Lazarevitch, Anne Sofie von Otter, Hugo Reyne, Skip Sempé and Jean Tubéry.

This is the latest and current version of the award winning, Stereophile recommended and an audiophile favorite, C1 monitor speakers. In its current Platinum guise, the speakers are pretty much the same as the original C1 spec wise. It has a frequency response of 45 Hz to 22 KHz with a sensitivity of 85 dB and an impedance of 4 ohm. Physically, it is still the same size at about 8″ wide, 17.5″ tall and 17″ deep. As the only monitor speaker in the Confidence series of speakers, the C1 Platinum is a big sounding speaker. Mounted on its matching stand (most ideal due to its depth), the C1 Platinum projected a big and confident soundstage. Stands are a $500 option but will be included in the package here with the speakers. Bass response was incredible for a monitor speaker with impressive tonal balance, liquid smooth mid-range and clean detailed highs. No surprise then that the C1 Platinum continues to be an audiophile favorite after the award winning C1. Built and finish is arguably better than the original C1 and in the black gloss finish here, is easily adaptable to any audio room.
Cosmetically, the speakers are in great condition, just very minor scuff marks from use. Stands (Dynaudio Stand 20, $600 MSRP) are included and essentially brand new but taken out for pics you see here. Speakers and stands are shipped in three boxes. Local pickup from our store welcomed.

Astros insider: Takeaways from series vs. A's
OAKLAND, Calif. — The Astros came to Oakland on Thursday with a 9 ½ game lead and a chance to put the American League West race out of reach.
They did not.
If not for Zack Greinke, the Astros would be starting a four-game sweep and six-game skid in the face.
An Oakland win on Sunday would have pared Houston's division lead to 5 ½ games. It hasn't been that close since July 20. Greinke gave seven stellar innings to prevent that. It's only Aug. 18, but the difference in a 7 ½ game lead and a 5 ½ game lead feels monumental.
Losing this four-game series would have been brutal for the A's, who now must face the Yankees for three games during their homestand. Instead, Oakland seized the chance to topple an Astros team that played nowhere near its capabilities aside from a handful of players.
Here are two takeaways from the four-game set.
Pitiful in scoring position
On Sunday, the Astros finally got a big hit with runners in scoring position.
Alex Bregman blasted a three-run home run in the fifth inning to offer Greinke all the cushion he required and, given the weekend's wretched ways, all the lineup could create.
The Astros finished Sunday's game 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position. They stranded 10 runners, continuing a concerning refrain from the weekend.
In the four games against the A's, Houston was 5-for-30 with runners in scoring position. The lineup left 31 men on base. Yordan Alvarez struck out twice on Sunday with runners in scoring position, but blame can be spread far wider than just a rookie.
For how terrifying their lineup is, the Astros are only average with runners in scoring position. They entered Sunday's game hitting .265 — 13th among 30 major league offenses — and dropped it to .263 with their putrid performance.
Their .836 OPS with runners in scoring position is seventh in baseball. More concerning is their on-base percentage in these situations. It's only .348. Fifteen major league teams are better.
It suggests the Astros struggle with something they often pride themselves upon — passing the baton from one batter to another and stringing innings together.
Unproductive at-bats with runners in scoring position can always be masked by extra-base hits or home runs. But on a weekend when the lineup entered an inevitable slump, a well-constructed inning with consecutive competitive at-bats could have been a benefit.
Bregman blasting off
Alex Bregman is authoring another one of his trademarked power surges.
In his last 12 games, Bregman is 20-for-45. He's hit nine doubles and three home runs, including the three-run shot on Sunday. He's now hit 30 home runs in two straight seasons. Only one Astros third baseman — Morgan Ensberg — had ever had one 30-homer season previously.
Bregman is the first Astro since Lance Berkman to craft consecutive seasons of at least 30 home runs. The effervescent third baseman is one shot shy of tying the career-high he set last year. Thirty-seven games remain in the regular season, all but ensuring Bregman will break it.
A more intriguing development is Bregman's uptick in doubles. He hit a major-league high 51 last season. Before this surge, he had just 16.
Sunday's four-hit showing leaves Bregman slashing .282/.411/.563.

Network World Newsletter: Mark Gibbs on Web Applications
Today's focus: Kinetic engineering
by Mark Gibbs
May 21, 2001
The Web is awash with creative designs but few stand out like the work of Plumb Design.
I first discovered Plumb's genius when I stumbled across its Visual Thesaurus project while researching a column a year or so ago. This unusual and radical approach to showing the relationships between words greatly impressed me, as did the company's later projects for the Smithsonian and Sony Music's Soundtrack for a Century.
These and other works illustrate relationships by using kinetic representations of information and dynamic displays. These relationships have been turned into development systems... that can be used to create and deliver Web content based on the same paradigms.

Let's get the first question out of the way right now. Compôte means "mixture" in French, so 15-20: Apple Compôte is essentially fancy applesauce. Don't even worry about exerting the effort to mash the apples–these are just syrupy slices.
Some of you might have thought of pie filling when you saw "compôte"–I know I did. There's actually differences between jam, jelly, preserves, conserves, and compote–I still don't know if this iteration matches up with their definition, but here's a recipe from my same trusted source (Serious Eats/Stella Parks) for essentially the same thing we're making here.

A letter for 2015…A letter for you
This year turned out to be a hell of a rollercoaster of emotions.
Of ups and downs served up on a silver plater.
I must admit. 2015, has brought it's share of pain, and headaches of the anxiety kind.
But when I sit here now, and look back at it all.
2015, also held a lot of dreams come true, and fairytale stories. That I will hold close to my heart, for a long time to come.
So in the honor of the new year, that is fast approaching. And the old year, that is coming to an end.
Here's to all the moments, of good and bad.
For the year that will go down in the books, as the year, Your Carrie, started climbing to the top.
And the girl behind it, got to know her worth, just a little bit better.
To the year, my bad past turned into a song. The year, I got to feel just how sweet, revenge really do taste.
Here's to the year, that taught me, that misfits can rise to the top, with the help of faith, strength and the power of a real dreamer.
This was the year I saw my favorite band for the first and last time (RIP my love, My Motley).
The year I made Halloween last a whole month. Wrote pieces, that has changed my life. And got to see a glimpse, of just what this story can become.
This was the year I finally grew my hair long, and realized that I just can't do it. And cut it short a few weeks after I got it to the length i wanted (HEY! what can you do?).
This was the year, I got the real proof, of just how much it can really mean, to be a down to the core, crazy aunt. And godmother to the best this world has ever seen.
(A & S, The world can use miracles like you two. I love you!)
2015 was the year of KaoticPanic Photography. A year of words from the deepest parts of my soul. A year for true down to the core strength.
This year was one of those, that taught me, just how strong I truly am.
But also taught me, how far I've come.
Even through battlecries, hard goodbyes, and all of the rollercoster rides, that has been my life. I've always tried my best to see every tear as lessons learned. Every bad day, as a promise of a good one to come. And well… Just tried to see, how far from the broken pieces beyond repair, I really am. Even though it has been anything but easy to see. And sometimes I don't feel far enough away from it all.
I know deep inside, that I am not the same girl anymore.
I'm still getting to the good part…I'm in middle of the madness, still.
But I am moving along. Climbing. Crawling. Running….fighting.
But trust me, when I tell you this.
I am on my way, Darling!
This girl… well, she's got plans. Dreams. And is too damn stubborn, to give up anytime soon.
There's been some battles, this year.
It's been some dreams.
There's been scary parts. Trust broken. Faith found.
But you know what?
Tomorrow's a new day. A new year… A new chapter of this twisted, but oh so exciting story.
That we get to call life.
We may not know, just what tomorrow brings. Or what is written, in the days to come.
But all we can ever do. Is get ready. Take a deep breath. And just jump into it, with an open mind, and a fearless spirit.
All we can do, is make the best of what we got. Keep going through what this world may throw our way. And take out our pencils, and draw up some changes on these pages.
I hope you all have a great new years eve. And that your new year, will be filled with all your wishes come true. A sky that is blue. And that you all know, just how much I love you.
Hey, look who can rime. Bet you didn't know, I'm a poet, huh?! haha.
Anyways, my loves.
Have a great night, wherever you are. And A happy new year <3
Remember.. I love you! <3
And thank you all so much, for making my dreams come true this year.
All my love
Your Carrie.

I'm thinking of making the $50 robot, and I was wondering about making a few changes
Also, with the DC motors, they need 6-12V, and (with no load) a current of 0.3 A. Their speed is 18,400 RPM and they have 69.2g.-cm torque (at 12V).
The MCU has an input voltage of 2-5V (step-up regulator makes it 5V) so will I need another power source for the motors?
If anyone could reccomend another similar MCU (based on ATmega168 chip, motor drivers/H-bridges, I/O ports for sonar.
it is about 10$ cheaper for a motor than for a servo

Independence Day Fireworks
Uploaded 07/12/2013
I'm not sure where you are or what your local laws are regarding fireworks, but I will relay my local California law to you as I know it: Safe & Sane fireworks (S&S) are allowed; no firework is allowed to be aerial, nor explosive in nature. This basically limits legal fireworks to ground shows that "fountain", smoke, or grow (black snakes). There are no public shows available nearby, nor have there been in recent years. A contributor to the local newspaper has voiced his concern over his animals crawling under their beds in fear of their lives over the "war-zone like display" that the city had this year. He asked for readers to make their voices heard at the city council meeting. During the time that public comment was allotted, approximately two people spoke against all fireworks and six spoke in favor of S&S for fundraising and celebratory purposes. The central complaint of the detractors of all fireworks is that the noise was too loud and their animals were in fear for their lives (loosely citing the possibility of post traumatic stress disorder veterans as a cause for their concern). "Something must be done," they cry. This is a city rife with gang violence, politics worthy of statewide headlines, and minimal safe activities/events for a city of appx. 160,000 documented residents. Yet, they have the political voice. I wrote a persuading article to the paper relaying my point that despite the major complaint being against currently illegal fireworks, residents were attempting to create legislation against all fireworks. I see a great disconnect here as to what the problem was: fireworks in general, or illegal fireworks. Even the fire chief and police chief voiced their concerns over enforcement being inefficient & impractical, yet the public took the podium to demand that their dear pooches be protected. I'm not sure where you stand on the issue in your locality, but you can be certain that whether or not they are legal, we are going to have a damned fine fireworks show.

text: Choosing the Right Heating and Air Conditioning System for Lexington Posted September 30, 2015 Given the environment in Lexington, there are a number of factors involved in the way you approach your heating and air conditioning. And when it's time to think about replacing your heating and air conditioning system, it's easy to make a hasty decision and end up with a system that doesn't totally address all of the needs that come with the weather. Here's a quick and basic analysis of how to decide what will work best for the current climate in Lexington or a new climate if you plan on moving. Warmer climates The southern region of North America usually has warmer weather for a great deal of the year, so not all heating and air conditioning equipment is ideal for that climate. These warmer climates normally employ heat pumps and air handlers. Heat pumps handle both your cooling and heating needs in one unit. Even if you don't think you need the heating functionality of a heat pump, it can help you get the most energy efficiency out of your system. Plus, you never know when there will be a sudden cold front that cools things off a tad. Air handlers make sure the air inside your home is being circulated. Whether it's the warm air in chilly months or cool air in the warmer months, air handlers make sure your comfort is always a top priority. Colder climates If we talk about the weather in the northern portion of North America, it's safer to choose an air conditioner and furnace to cover your heating and air conditioning needs. With temperatures getting cold more frequently, gas and oil furnaces can work regardless of the temperature outside, leaving you comfortable indoors. Ensuring your home is comfortable throughout the year means taking a little time to gain more knowledge about the heating and air conditioning needs of your state. Not sure what is best for you? Give the team at James Heating & A/C, Inc a call at 336-853-6070 and we'll be more than happy to discuss all of the options available to you in Lexington to make sure you're always comfortable.

Death Grips
Death Grips
Venue: Manchester Academy, Moss Ln E, Manchester M14 4PX, United Kingdom
Date: October 16th 2016
Promoter: Now Wave
Death Grips are a band wrapped in mystery; the antithesis to the modern music machine; a smashed mirror to the quintessential world of music. Whether their enigmatic social media presence of circular iPhones [1], their "breakup" note written on toilet roll [2], or their absence at their own shows [3], the band have been endlessly manipulating with their self-image as well as their fanbase. Yet, memes aside, Death Grips produce some of the most visceral, unique, and intelligent experimental hip-hop beats of the 21st century, which have captured both the hip hop and heavy music communities. [4]
Understanding Death Grips themselves is the most difficult part of their music. Sure, tracks like 'Hot Head' with its screaming, blood-rushing beats and noisy chemistry, are undoubtedly inaccessible, but the band's combination of dark lyrical content of Satanic and occult imagery then being juxtaposed with the most bizarre of social media presences makes it difficult to understand if Death Grips are being tongue-in-cheek or making an eccentric social statement.
Either way, Death Grips are constantly evolving, expanding and experimenting. The release of their latest record Bottomless Pit shows the band again pushing boundaries. Welcoming more melodic tendencies with the self-reflecting 'Eh' and continuing with IDM experimentation with 'Spikes', it was the Death Grips we all know and love, with exciting differences. And finally, they scheduled dates across the UK to witness their infamously chaotic live shows – including Manchester.
Originally meant to be hosted in the smaller Manchester Academy 3 room, the tickets themselves sold out within minutes, which prompted the organisers to upgrade to the larger, 3,000 capacity auditorium. Whilst this bothered a few – being potentially not as intimate as before – the show itself still reached pandemonium levels.
After over an hour of elevating tonal pitch shifts and disjointed rumbles, the band took centre-stage at 9pm sharp. Beginning with the somewhat unusual opener of Government Plates' closer 'Whatever You Want (Fuck Who's Watching)', it was a mighty warm up before the rest of the twenty-four songs played end-to-end. No interruptions, no breaks. 'Bubbles Buried In This Jungle' began, its screaming, bass-heavy, slamming synth tendencies and infectious chorus hook sent everyone into a whirlwind of sweating bodies, raised fists and screaming mouths. It didn't stop with 'Get Got', the song that created the most cathartic catalyst to pump the audience into chaos. 'No Love', 'Giving Bad People Good Ideas', 'Spikes' and the ridiculously-named Bob Dylan-referencing 'You May Think He Loves You For Your Money But I Know What He Really Loves You For It's Your Brand New Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat' all brought their own sense of organised intensity, while 'Guillotine' was one of the most animated sing-alongs I've witnessed.
Visually, Death Grips were spectacular. Strobe lighting and flashing lights aside, MC Ride's looming, bare-chested dominant character drew remarkable stage presence. Zach Hill's atypical drumming style lent an affirmed hand to Flatlanders' unconventional – yet totally danceable – electronic grooves, whilst everyone partied in a flurry of dark purples and blues. Enchanting and captivating, Death Grips were engaging from start to finish.
Sometimes the catharsis had awkward pay-offs. 'Hot Head's off-kilter rhythms had some perplexed, with Ride's 'blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-oh no, hot head' slightly too dysfunctional to co-operate with for the crowd. Adding a mass pick-pocketing scandal into the mix [5], the show was not without its faults. But even with dehydration and body crushing, the downsides were completely forgotten by the time a trio of closers 'Lord Of The Game', 'I Break Mirrors With My Face…' and the explosive 'The Fever (Aye Aye)' brought Death Grips set to a close of flipped drum kits and the trio's exit.
There was no encore, no chatter to the crowd, just twenty-five songs of pure, unadulterated madness. When the show finished, and the lights flashed on, everyone stood still. Slowly approaching each other's friendship groups with a pleasant sigh of relief, (and plenty of 'holy shits'), it was hard to contemplate what had just happened for the past ninety minutes. Possibly the gig of a lifetime, Death Grips prove themselves as band that should be taken seriously despite the memes and jokes. Their inaccessibility is their accessibility, and their fans are of the most hardcore. It's not often that you go to a gig with a setlist that long and have every song receive intense sing-alongs. It was one of the best gigs of my life, surpassing all expectations. Sweaty, battering, bruising, and completely and utterly overwhelming.

"Evermind Ministries exists to keep God's Word at the center of the human experience by teaching it, reminding of it, and applying it to life."
AMBrewster – Founder
What Does Evermind Mean?
If you Google the word evermind you will find links for bands, web designers, and organizations. You will also find that Merriam-Webster says it's not a word. Hmmm.
But Evermind Ministries is a Bible-based organization with a very well-defined purpose.
In the late 90's AMBrewster came up with the word evermind to mean the exact opposite of never mind. It means simply "to continually keep at the forefront of one's mind, and to make the center of one's thoughts and motivations."
We chose to use this word for our Ministry because we've found that God's truth is frequently the last thing on people's mind when they're in line for coffee, navigating a mine field of bad drivers, in the throws of a child's tantrum, or when they're typing empty words into a business memo. But the divine reality is that God's truth should not only always be in view, it should be the reason we're standing in line for coffee or handling a child's tantrum.
I Peter 1:3, "Seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence."
Everything I need for life can only be found in the true knowledge of God. That true knowledge can only be found in the Scriptures. We must evermind God's Word.
Our Mission Statement is simple:
Evermind Ministries exists to keep God's Word at the center of the human experience by teaching it, reminding of it, and applying it to life.
1. Teaching – Matthew 28:19-20 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations . . . teaching them to observe all that I commanded you." Teaching includes any time someone hears God truth for the first time. This can be a gospel presentation, or when someone learns something new about God they didn't previously know. It is one of our foundational tenants that God's truth can only be learned from His Word, the Bible.
2. Reminding – The doctrine of Remembrance is fleshed out in the entirety of Scripture. Most of us don't struggle with biblical ignorance so much as we simply forget what we know. James 1:23-24 "For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. " We have God's truth in His perfect mirror, but then we forget what we saw there! We all need daily reminders about what we have learned.
3. Applying – When we apply sunscreen, do we leave the lotion in the bottle? Do we pour it on the ground? Of course, not! We spread it directly where it's needed. The application of God's truth is something that is daily ignored in our Christian culture. We memorize verses about loving God. We tell people from the pulpit that they need to love God. But many Christians wonder, "How do I love God? What does that actually mean? Is loving God any different than what I'm already doing?" Teaching and reminding people of God's truth is fruitless if we do not intentionally apply it to life.

Mumbai photojournalist gang-raped on assignment
- Published
A 22-year-old photojournalist has been gang-raped by five men in the Indian city of Mumbai, police say.
The woman, who was on assignment on Thursday evening in the Lower Parel area when she was attacked, is in hospital with multiple injuries.
She was accompanied by a male colleague who was beaten by her attackers. Police have arrested one of the suspects.
In a similar case last December, a 23-year-old student was gang-raped on a bus in the capital, Delhi.
In that case, the woman and her male friend were brutally assaulted and she later died in hospital from her injuries.
The attack sparked nationwide protests and forced the authorities to introduce tougher laws for crimes against women.
The victim of Thursday's attack worked as an intern with a Mumbai-based English magazine and had gone to the Shakti Mills - a former textile mill that now lies abandoned and in ruins - for a photo shoot, police said.
She has been admitted to Jaslok hospital in Mumbai, which said that she was stable and able to speak.
"She went through a minor investigation procedure today [Friday] morning. She had both internal and external injuries," the statement said.
Hundreds of demonstrators have staged a silent protest in the city.
Mumbai police commissioner Satyapal Singh said the incident took place between "6pm and 6:30pm on Thursday" and described it as "reprehensible".
"The man [victim's male colleague] was clicking pictures on a camera while the girl was taking pictures on her mobile phone in the dilapidated building when one accused accosted them and inquired why they were there at the railway property," he said.
"He later called four more men to the spot. They tied the male colleague's hands with a belt and took the girl to the bushes and raped her."
Mr Singh said nearly 20 teams had been formed to investigate the case and that all the accused had been identified.
Earlier, police said 35 people had been detained and were being questioned. Sketches of the five accused were also released.
'Deeply disturbing'
The attack has led to outrage in India with many taking to social media to express their anger.
"Sick and deeply disturbing," tweeted musician Shekhar Ravjiani. "My heart goes out to the victim and I hope and pray that God gives her the strength to make it through this ordeal."
Nirmala Sitharaman of India's main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party wrote: "Despicable! We are shamed! How long and God forbid, how many more before the criminals are punished? Wake up, India!"
"Sad validation of the fact that NO city in India is safe for women. It is after all the same prevention/enforcement mechanism in use all over," tweeted actress Gul Panag.
"Helpless to say the least... words like "devastated", disgusted" mean nothing at a time like this!!!! #gangrape in my city... I feel ashamed," director Karan Johar wrote.
"Mumbai's women should come out for a Delhi-like response. 'Work to do' is no excuse," tweeted senior journalist Bachi Karkaria.
Women's safety has been the focus of attention in India since the fatal Delhi gang rape.
Six people, including a juvenile suspect, were arrested for the crime.
One of the men was found dead in his prison cell in March. The other five are on trial and verdicts are due over the next few weeks.

Advanced Common Application Platform
This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject.(February 2011)
This article may be confusing or unclear to readers. (March 2008)
The Advanced Common Application Platform (ACAP) is a broadcasting company. The company intends to provide television consumers with advanced interactive services and offer content providers, broadcasters, cable and satellite operators, and consumer electronics manufacturers the technical details necessary to develop inter-operable services and products.
The role of ACAP
In essence, ACAP makes it appear to interactive programming content that it is running on a so-called "common receiver." This common receiver contains a well-defined architecture, execution model, syntax and semantics.
As a middleware specification for interactive applications, ACAP gives content and application authors assurance that their programs and data will be received, and run uniformly, on all brands and models of receivers.
Trial implementations have already been done in North Korea by a consortium of organizations. In addition, an extensive ACAP demonstration was held at
NAB2004 (See NAB Show. an annual trade show produced by the National Association of Broadcasters. It takes place in April at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada).
An ACAP application is a collection of information processed by an application environment to interact with an end-user or otherwise alter the state-of-the-application environment. ACAP applications are classified into two categories, depending on whether the initial application content processed is of a procedural or a declarative nature.
These categories of applications are referred to as procedural (ACAP-J) and declarative (ACAP-X), respectively. An example of an ACAP-J application is a Java TV Xlet composed of compiled Java byte codes in conjunction with other multimedia content such as graphics, video and audio. An example of an ACAP-X application is a multimedia document composed of XHTML markup, style rules, scripts and embedded graphics, video and audio.
An ACAP application need not be purely procedural or declarative. In particular, an ACAP-J application may reference declarative content, such as graphics, or may construct and cause the presentation of markup content.
Similarly, ACAP-X applications may use script content, which is procedural in nature. Furthermore, an ACAP-X application may reference an embedded Java TV Xlet.
The architecture and facilities of ACAP are intended to apply to broadcast systems and receivers for terrestrial broadcast and cable TV systems.
In addition, the same architecture and facilities may be applied to other transport systems, such as satellite. ACAP is primarily based on the GEM (Globally Executable Multimedia) home platform specification developed by the DVB consortium and DASE, developed by the ATSC.

I would not treat it as outside. Admittedly it is such a small amount that HMRC are unlikely to challenge it but there's some evidence that they choose some cases to challenge by throwing darts at a board whilst blindfolded.
If it is challenged, because it is a Monday-Friday scenario, because what you are doing is part of what you were doing before, and because it is support, they aren't going to let it go easily. They'll say you've just become a part-time employee, and that because it is a support role you are under SDC. I know not every support role is SDC but HMRC won't care.
If you treat it as inside IR35, it costs you nothing. You are making £400 and your monthly salary will be more than that. So just allocate £400 of your monthly salary to this contract and have it done.
It also could provide a very marginal benefit if you are investigated for IR35 on another role in the future. You can point to this and say, 'Of course I obey the law, I treated that contract as inside IR35 because it was.' In an area that is so subjective, where so many cases are somewhat nebulous, I'd take every little thing I could, especially because in this case it costs you nothing.

▶ Module FAQ?
The information here is applicable to LSU HPC and LONI systems.
A user may choose between using /bin/bash and /bin/tcsh. Details about each shell follows.
System resource file: /etc/profile
When one access the shell, the following user files are read in if they exist (in order):
- ~/.bash_profile (anything sent to STDOUT or STDERR will cause things like rsync to break)
- ~/.bashrc (interactive login only)
- ~/.profile
When a user logs out of an interactive session, the file ~/.bash_logout is executed if it exists.
The default value of the environmental variable, PATH, is set automatically using Modules. See below for more information.
The file ~/.cshrc is used to customize the user's environment if his login shell is /bin/tcsh.
Modules is a utility which helps users manage the complex business of setting up their shell environment in the face of potentially conflicting application versions and libraries.
Default Setup
When a user logs in, the system looks for a file named .modules in their home directory. This file contains module commands to set up the initial shell environment.
Viewing Available Modules
The command
$ module avail
displays a list of all the modules available. The list will look something like:
--- some stuff deleted --- velvet/1.2.10/INTEL-14.0.2 vmatch/2.2.2 ---------------- /usr/local/packages/Modules/modulefiles/admin ----------------- EasyBuild/1.11.1 GCC/4.9.0 INTEL-140-MPICH/3.1.1 EasyBuild/1.13.0 INTEL/14.0.2 INTEL-140-MVAPICH2/2.0 --- some stuff deleted ---
The module names take the form appname/version/compiler, providing the application name, the version, and information about how it was compiled (if needed).
Managing Modules
Besides avail, there are other basic module commands to use for manipulating the environment. These include:
add/load mod1 mod2 ... modn . . . Add modules rm/unload mod1 mod2 ... modn . . Remove modules switch/swap mod . . . . . . . . . Switch or swap one module for another display/show . . . . . . . . . . List modules loaded in the environment avail . . . . . . . . . . . . . . List available module names whatis mod1 mod2 ... modn . . . . Describe listed modules
The -h option to module will list all available commands.
About the Software
Oases is a de novo transcriptome assembler designed to produce transcripts from short read sequencing technologies, such as Illumina, SOLiD, or 454 in the absence of any genomic assembly. Oases uploads a preliminary assembly produced by Velvet, and clusters the contigs into small groups, called loci. It then exploits the paired-end read and long read information, when available, to construct transcript isoforms. - Homepage: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/~zerbino/oases/

Soooo.......I decided that with all of this knowledge, I mean, I really should share what I know!!!
I tried to think of a really snazzy name for it, but I couldn't, so it is what it is at this point. Anywhoo, I just decided to call it Oodles of Tech Tips Tuesday ( I know, a mouthful), and my goal is to share some technology tidbit every Tuesday. I hope you enjoy it, and please feel free to share any tech tips that you may have with me!!
If you're anything like me, you probably have several tabs open as you try to multi-task. That's what I usually do as I'm trying to create things, check email, facebook, google reader, cnn, people.com, etc. You get the picture!!!
Well, let me introduce you to RockMelt. Now, what is that? It almost sounds like a sandwich (and I'm really hungry!!). RockMelt is a browser, much like Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, & Opera, to name a few.
The awesome thing about RockMelt, is the fact that it combines all (well, most) of your favorite things into one convenient area. Take a peek!!!
Isn't this neat!!!!! I absolutely love it!! Unfortunately, I won't be able to use it at school, because you have to login with your Facebook account, and of course it is blocked at my school!!! Hmmm.....I think I'm going to try anyway, and I'll let you know what I find out!!
Talk to you later!!!!

There was much joy in Boulder County when 67 couples were issued civil union licenses May 1st as Colorado's civil union law took effect. But what does having a civil union actually mean? Many legal experts would say a civil union is not marriage, yet with state recognition there are rights and responsibilities that partners in a civil union now have.
Surprise, you may already be in a civil union. Unbeknownst to you, Colorado may already recognize you as a civil union partner. Did you get married in another state or country? Are you a party to a civil union, domestic partnership or substantially similar relationship in another jurisdiction? Then most likely you're in a civil union in Colorado said Erica Johnson, an estate planning attorney with Ambler & Keenan in Denver. The civil union legislation applies to couples regardless of the gender of the partners.
How do benefits change? Starting with policies issued or renewed in 2014, the law allows a civil union partner the ability to cover their partner as a dependent with health insurance and life insurance. You'll be able to purchase life insurance and name your partner as a beneficiary. Partners can also be beneficiaries under PERA and other pensions. Federal programs and laws such as Social Security, income taxes, estate taxes and immigration are not affected. Also health insurance benefits that are tax free to spouses of eligible workers are taxable income to a partner in a civil union.
What are other rights available to civil union partners? The right to make decisions for a partner when it comes to medical treatment or finances in case of incapacity is enhanced. A civil union partner can also inherit even in the absence of a will.
What about the children of a civil union? If a civil union is in place at the time of conception, the benefits and responsibilities of the non-biological partner are the same as if the partners were spouses, according to Johnson. Both partners would be on the child's birth certificate, although this may not be respected in other states. For most purposes, child support and custody apply to partners in a civil union as they do for spouses.
What happens when a civil union is dissolved? A partner in a civil union may have obligations to support their former partner similar to spousal maintenance. There could be a division of assets as part of the dissolution of a civil union as well. As stated before, child support and custody comes into play just as it does with spouses. One emerging part of the law is what steps you can take to protect your assets in case of union dissolution.
What about the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)? The Supreme Court will rule on DOMA in a few days and it could have tremendous implications for same-sex partners. "Civil unions are not marriage," said Johnson, and so the ruling may not alter the rights and responsibilities related to civil unions in Colorado. But there could be plenty of changes for same-sex couples regarding income and estate taxes, federal benefits, and immigration rights. We will have to wait to see its impact.
Civil unions, while welcomed by many as progress toward same-sex marriage, raise many legal and financial questions that will be affected by federal and state court rulings. If you're considering a civil union, my recommendation is that you see an estate planning attorney that specializes in this complex and quickly changing area of the law.

New York State is one of a handful of places in the U.S. where it is legal for woman to be topless in public.
On Sunday, protesters gathered in Midtown to exercise that right, and to spread awareness about what they call "gender topless equality" – the right for woman to be topless where men can.
"It's stupid that woman can get jailed for showing their nipples, everybody has them," said Karen Heaven, spokeswoman for Go-Topless, an organization based in Seattle, as she marched shirtless today.
About a dozen women in all marched topless in the protest, which started in Bryant Park, and migrated through Times Square. The marchers garnered encouragement — as well as catcalls — along the way, as they chanted "Free your breasts! Free your mind!"
