just curious-- when did that change?Possibly before I started doing taxes in 1983.I'm sure that when I was working, if you had 401k, you couldn't contribute to trad.IRA (no? Yours is a very common error. People confuse making a contribution with getting a deduction.For the last couple of decades or so, you can always contribute to a traditional IRA if you have earned income, but you couldn't always deduct that contribution. If you have a retirement plan at work - and a 401k is one of many kinds of retirement plans - your ability to deduct an IRA contribution is pretty limited. Currently, the limits are about $90k for married people and $60k for singles. These limits are indexed for inflation, so have been lower in the past.--Peter

My mouth drops at this incredible meal Jean-Pierre has come up with and we eat humming and umming and ah yeah oui oui great slurp and a li'l wine to freshen the spirit and cheese and yogurt for dessert and after that we talk about bats and owls and get into bed…so fuckin' cold without the heater working that the skin almost freezes to the sheets…he undresses quick and ouch ouch jumps beneath the sheets moaning at the freeze of them and I undress and…ah…ah…inch my way beneath the covers and we rub and warm each other up breathing hot breath on each other's bodies to chase the chill away and soon that becomes frenzy and we're getting on in the heat of delicious sexual contact the sheets go flying off it doesn't matter anymore the heat has come up from the heart into the surface of flesh and eyes glowing we roll back and forth and finally there is sleep…long restful uninterrupted smooth warm exterior interior sleep where dreams chase the hedges and dogs wheel around the sky and not a river or snake or any sexual image but the strongest one of all and its rhythms of life itself ah yeah…
—David Wojnarowicz, diary entry, 1978
Somewhere in America there is a boy who picked up a newspaper at some point since last fall and read the name David Wojnarowicz for the first time. Somewhere there is another boy who was trolling the Internet, and another who caught Live at 5, and another who was walking along F Street in Washington and saw a construction trailer with a droopy banner saying Museum of Censored Art and thought, Cool. And all of these boys—in the dark about art because why wouldn't they be? in the dark with their sexuality because it's still scary, in the dark about the social machinery of seduction and death because the political culture is so adept at sleight of hand—are poised to discover wondrous and fiery things because Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center and Bill Donohue of the Catholic League and Congressmen John Boehner and Eric Cantor complained that Wojnarowicz's work is too hot to handle.
Sometimes the censor is the best friend knowledge has. He is for sure one of the best friends art has. In the latest case, the censor has retrieved Wojnarowicz's sensitive, sexy, fiercely rebellious legacy from the elite world that, since his death from AIDS in 1992, has hung him in hushed halls and pronounced, Yes, he did deserve to live, after all.
In October the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery opened a show called "Hide/Seek: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture." It assembled 106 works by major artists from Romaine Brooks to Jasper Johns to Andy Warhol around the concept that sexual outlaws have responded to repression with "creative acts of resistance" by which they declared themselves and, in the process, helped to define American culture. A strong show, and the first queer-themed exhibit in a national museum, it nevertheless would have been as conspicuous as rain on a distant sea if it weren't for a few dank straight men who hate gay people.
These men huffed and puffed and blubbered that Christmas was insulted by eleven seconds of a Wojnarowicz video and agreed that Donohue was right to call its use of a crucifix "hate speech." A nice touch, that phrase, always a prelude to shutting someone up; liberals, take note: it will be used against you. Freaked, the Smithsonian's top man, G. Wayne Clough, yanked the video from the show on November 30. From then on, protest has rung through the blogs, print and the streets of DC.

Hard work
Sometimes I feel my prayers come, up empty. I pray - nothing happens. I pray some more - some more nothing happens. It feels like work...hard work!!
"...we worked hard all last night and did not catch a thing. But if you say so, I'll let the nets down again." Luke 5:5 NLB
I come up empty handed...my nets are worn, wet and empty!
I know the feeling of a sleepless, fishless night?
For what have I been casting?
Faith? "I want to believe, but…"
Healing? "She's been sick so long…"
A wayward child? "No matter what I do…"
I have worked hard all night and caught nothing!!!
I have felt what Peter felt. I have sat where Peter sat. And now Jesus is asking me to go fishing. He knows my nets are empty. He knows my heart is weary. He knows I'd like nothing more than to turn my back on the mess and call it a life.
But he urges, "It's not too late to try again."
Peter's reply helps me formulate my own reply to Jesus, "If you say so, I'll let the nets down again" (v.5).

Before I left last weekend for Houston, I made an apron for a bridal shower. My friend ordered it for her niece (to be). The blue stripe I had from another project but the paisley is new. The pattern is a copy of an old apron I have that I think is cute. I like the look of a little skirt peeking out. I also added buttons (my friend is crazy about buttons).

New Citizen
I created a new collage' for my husband. I made it to celebrate his becoming a NEW AMERICAN CITIZEN this week. It was a proud day for all of us. The process was fairly simple - just lengthy. He sent his paperwork in last June...and finally got his interview this last Monday! The ceremony was simple and there were many nations represtented (plus there was one other Canadian from Ontario in the room). All immigrants raised their right hand and pledge their oath to the United States.
"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

Waiting for Blessings
I find it so hard to wait!
Waiting for a friend's planned visit. Waiting for a major event/holiday. Waiting for a job offer. Waiting for the birth of a baby. Waiting for pain to end. Waiting for answered prayer. Waiting...
I was reading in Habakkuk (who reads Habakkuk? :>} )I love the Old Testament!
"This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed." Habakkuk 2:3
My dad believes in the "Nick of Time" theology. He believes God never comes too early (because then we wouldn't know it was Him,) and He NEVER comes late.
The Bible always reminds me that God has a specific timetable that He uses to accomplish His purpose in my life. Sometimes that timetable seems excruciatingly slow, cruel and painful, but...always needful. I know God has a storehouse of blessings He has reserved for me, but my timing to receive His blessings is not the same as the Lord's timing.
When I think about Joseph and the time he spent as a slave, wrongly accused, thrown into prison and forgotten...I would be trying to second-guess what God was doing in my life! If I were Joseph I would go over and over the dreams of my youth, the mistreatment by my family, my wasted years as a slave, years spent in prison...what on earth was God thinking...clearly not about me! Or was HE?
I like to think my "character" is in order. My own self-assessment gives me pretty high marks, and I know God has taken much time over my lifetime to develop my character. But..I also know He's not finished correcting me and my character flaws (no matter my own self assessment). I even believe some of my "blessings" have been delayed due to my refusal to be corrected.
I want to be able to "motivate" God on my timetable. Something needs to happen...yet sometimes He keeps me right where I am. Nothing is moving or happening and it feels as if my whole life is at a standstill...or moving at a snails pace. I begin to feel discontent and wonder if God is evening listening. I want my circumstances changed...I want my life changed!
I believe Joseph had come to a place with God where he resigned himself to remain wherever God had chosen to keep him. He had become dead to his circumstances. I don't think that means I can't long for better days, but there is a Godly contentment that allows me to remain in any condition with a peace that passes all understanding.
Even though it is sometimes difficult to understand, the Lord is just and gracious in His dealings with me. When He does move on my behalf I know I will appreciate any delay and may even better understand the reasons for that delay. I know without doubt the Lord longs to be gracious to me. He rises to show me compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him! (Isaiah 20:18)
I will wait...my dreams...I ask the Lord for His grace to sustain me. I know it will be worth the wait!

text: Please tell me if this statement is correct: Its not that the screen is poor, its that the OS isn't built for 7" I got an iPad Mini and love it, but I'm also in the group that feels the screen hurts the user experience. Default fonts for everything from icon labels to web pages felt fine on my iPad2 but are more difficult to read and dont seem ideal for a smaller iPad. So the reason for all the screen negativity isnt purely on it being non-retina, but more because theres no way (yet) to tell the OS to set a minimum text default and it makes a perfectly sized device feel imperfect. My hope is that soon they will have an iOS update that offers more options for text and maybe even a few tweaks to make iOS feel more natural on this size of device because I absolutely love everything about it... except reading.

SAN FRANCISCO --The California Department of Public Health says three Bay Area hospitals are facing fines for not following numerous medical procedures.
In San Francisco, the California Pacific Medical Center will have to pay a $100,000 fine after a patient had to undergo a second surgery to remove a foreign object. The hospital says it already took actions to prevent it from happening again.
Officials say St. Luke's Campus hospital in San Francisco must also pay a $50,000 penalty for a similar surgical error.
And, Marin General Hospital in Greenbrae is facing a $75,000 penalty for an error involving medication.

As Teufelskunst keeps growing it has long been my wish to offer my customers an easier way to order my hand-made artworks and incense blends. This wish is finally becoming reality. The new webshop is on the way!
The next weeks will hence mark a transition period, as we are working on setting everything up. As of May 20th/21st, the following changes will take place:
- This blog will continue to exist and can be reached via the old WordPress URL teufelskunst.wordpress.com
- The official site URL www.teufelskunst.com will from then on point to the new website. For the time being there will be shown a temporary "New website coming soon…" notice.
- There may be trouble with e-mails – this will be temporary and should be solved within a day. I can still be reached via etsy, instagram and facebook inboxes.
- We will be working on the webshop and adding the content as fast as possible. But please bear with me, as my time is split up between crafting, shipping orders and working on the new webpage.
So long, I hope to soon be able to offer you all a better service.
Sincerely Yours,

The original 300SL established the SL name, but it was the family of SLs, starting with the 1963 230SL, that made it big business for Mercedes. Effectively replacing the 190SL and 300SL, the '63 230SL was about the same length as the 190SL, but about the same width as the 300SL and, like the 300SL, powered by a fuel-injected six-cylinder engine. It was plusher than the 190SL, but less expensive than the lavishly detailed 300SL, and so civilized that it was the first SL to be offered with air conditioning and an automatic transmission. With its square cut lines, the 230SL set the styling idiom for subsequent Mercedes products throughout the '60s. But it was the optional hardtop, which dipped at the center, that was the car's most distinctive feature. It was designed to maximize the height of the side windows to improve visibility and ease getting in and out of the car. The result was a roof that looked like a pagoda, and that became the name that stuck with the car. Like the 190SL, the 230SL's chassis was strictly conventional (for a Mercedes). The suspension consisted of double wishbones up front and the rear still had those somewhat nasty swing arms. The body was mostly made of st

I don't know what's more disturbing, the fact that Drake was tagged to feature on this track, or the fact that fans think he "saved" this song (see comments on YouTube). The difference between these two artists is epitomized by the visuals they were associated with in this video. Drake, in a hotel room with a big booty call on the bed, Kendrick Lamar, appearing as a shot up corpse laying on top of his dead girlfriend. Skirt steak and filet mignon.

This error means the audio renderer is not accepting the audio input. Usually because of an unsupported sample rate. It can often be fixed by updating your sound driver. Alternatively, you can enable the internal audio renderer in MPC, which is able to resample the audio. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer > Internal Audio Renderer
majortype: MEDIATYPE_Audio {73647561-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} subtype: MEDIASUBTYPE_IEEE_FLOAT {00000003-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} formattype: FORMAT_WaveFormatEx {05589F81-C356-11CE-BF01-00AA0055595A}
See above. Same applies as for MEDIASUBTYPE_PCM.
You need to disable the internal audio switcher of Media Player Classic.
Options > Internal Filters > Audio Switcher
Enable the internal MPEG-2 decoder in Media Player Classic.
Options -> Internal Filters -> Transform Filters
Change the video renderer. You can do that in: Options -> Playback -> Output -> DirectShow Video
Try the different renderers until you find one that works for you. Restart the player each time you change the renderer.
Media Player Classic gives error: GetCurrentImage failed, hr = 8000ffff
The solution is to change the video renderer. A fewof the renderers are not compatible with the image saving functionality of Media Player Classic. Renderers that are not compatible are Overlay Mixer and madVR.
You can change the video renderer here: MPC Options -> Playback -> Output -> DirectShow Video.
Make sure that your DVD drive is set at the correct region, and that the region of your DVD drive matches that of the DVD.
You can edit the region settings of your DVD drive here: Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> DVD/CD-ROM drives
This may happen in 32-bit version for filetypes that are rendered using RealMedia or QuickTime framework. For example: .rm .amr .3gp
The solution is to change the name of the file so that it only contains letters and numbers. Remove all non ASCII characters.
In some rare cases Overlay Mixer in combination with YV12 colorspace output causes the video to stutter. Probably due to a bug in the graphics drivers.
Possible solutions:
This happens with .mov files that contain SVQ3 video, when the file is parsed by Haali Media Splitter. Frames are decoded in the wrong order.
The solution is to change the preferred splitter with the Codec Tweak Tool. The recommended (and default) splitter for .mov files is LAV Splitter.
The context menu and most of the keyboard shortcuts do not work in Direct3D mode. The only way to exit Direct3D fullscreen is to press Ctrl+C. This will also stop playback.
Media Player Classic does not properly support these types of streams. Use Windows Media Player for these files.
This can be fixed by changing the rendering method.
MPC options -> Playback -> Output
Select either the DirectX 7 or DirectX 9 mode for QuickTime and RealMedia. At least one of the two should give proper playback.
This is a 'bug' (or rather a limitation) in Media Player Classic when using the RealMedia framework for playback. This problem does not exist when using the DirectShow framework for playback of realMedia files.
The only way to re-activate the play button is to re-open the file.
If you want to play a video file several times, then you can find settings for doing so in MPC options. Those settings apply to all files you play.
Media Player Classic options -> Player -> Formats
Scroll down to "Real Media File". Behind it you should see "RealMedia". If you see "DirectShow", then click on it and change it to "RealMedia". This is the default setting, so normally you don't need to change anything.
It is required that the RealMedia framework is installed for playing streaming RealMedia content in MPC. Even then, there is no guarantee that it will work for all streams. Also, it only works in the 32-bit version of MPC, because the RealMedia framework is 32-bit software.
For proper playback of RealMedia streams it is recommended to use RealPlayer or VLC Player.
This may happen if you have are using madVR or Haali video renderer. Solution is to change the video renderer in MPC options.
This may happen if the DVD Navigation DirectShow filter from DirectX is not properly registered. Perform this command to fix it:
Start -> Run -> regsvr32 qdvd.dll
A Pixel Shader is a graphics function that calculates effects on a per-pixel basis. A shader is basically a tiny program that is executed on your graphics card to process some graphic data. In the case of MPC, every frame of the video you play gets processed.
The requirements for the pixelshaders in MPC:
You can find the relevant options here: MPC Options -> Internal Filters
Source filters (aka splitters) are used for parsing files. Transform filters are decoders.
This can happen if you selected the wrong video renderer in MPC options. Aero is not compatible with the Overlay Mixer. It is recommended to use "EVR Custom Presenter" on Vista/7/8/10.
MPC-HC has a special option to disable Aero. Perhaps you have accidentally enabled that. You can find it here: MPC-HC menu -> View -> Renderer Settings -> Presentation -> "Disable Desktop Composition"
Updating your graphics driver may solve the problem. Otherwise, you should disable DXVA hardware acceleration in the video decoder settings.
If MPC loads slowly, even when not playing a file, then it might be because of your anti-virus software. Solution is to put mpc-hc.exe on the ingore list of your scanner.
Another known cause for slow loading of MPC is related to certain old versions of the Realtek sound driver. If your computer has a Realtek sound chip, then you should update your driver to the latest version.
If MPC loads slowly only when playing a file, then the problem might be related to your graphics driver. First thing to try is to update the driver.
If that does not help, then select a different video renderer in MPC: Options -> Playback -> Output -> DirectShow video.
Somehow the "EVR Sync" video renderer does not work properly on your system. We are not sure what exactly causes this problem.
You can solve the problem by changing the video renderer. MPC Options -> Playback -> Output
If you want to be able to use DXVA hardware acceleration, select "EVR Custom Pres". Otherwise select "EVR".
First check if you did not accidentally enabled the audio mute button or have set the volume to 0.
Open MPC and play a file. Then click on the Windows speaker icon in your system tray (right-bottom corner of your screen). Click on "mixer". Then you should see volume sliders for all active multimedia programs. Check if the volume of MPC is correct and not muted. This solution is only relevant for Windows Vista and newer. Windows XP does not have separate volume options for individual programs.
If the above doesn't help, then follow the instructions below very carefully. This particular solution only applies to Windows Vista and newer, and is not relevant for Windows XP.
The solution above also works for other executables that have a similar sound problem on Windows Vista/7/8/10.
It is recommended to close MPC before putting your PC in hibernation/sleep.
Otherwise press Ctrl+E to reload the file and re-initialize playback. Also recommended: Options > Player > Remember file position
This is a known problem with the "EVR Custom Pres." renderer in MPC-HC if you have enabled VSync. This option is disabled by default.
A workaround is to (temporarily) disable VSync. You can do that through: View -> Renderer Settings -> VSync -> VSync. Tip: you can quickly toggle this option on/off by pressing the V button.
Another solution is to select a different video renderer in MPC-HC options. Recommended alternative renderers are: madVR, EVR Sync, EVR, and System Default.
This is a known problem with the "EVR Custom Presenter" renderer in MPC-HC in combination with the Gabest MPEG splitter.
There are several solutions/workarounds:
Update your graphics driver or change the video renderer: MPC options > Playback > Output.
This is usually caused by a problem with your graphics driver.
Update your graphics driver or change the video renderer in MPC options.
Since Windows Vista there are two types of file associations. Global associations and user-specific file associations. A global file association applies to all user accounts. However, each user account can override global associations with its own preferred choices.
The codec pack creates global associations. It also resets the overrides for the administrator account that was used for the installation. The preferences of other user accounts can not and should not be changed by the installer.
Each individual user can select the preferred program through the "Default Programs" applet of Windows. You can choose Media Player Classic as your preferred player there.

Discover the modern-day benefits of 3D scanners and augmented reality.
The UK is getting increasingly innovative with its jewellery manufacturing and technology, from 3D scanners to digital diamond jewellery. Kathryn Bishop gets a snapshot of what is available now and an insight into what lies ahead in the near future.
The jewellery industry is a traditional trade to say the least, but a growing number of British companies are shaking up how the industry works, with a new era of manufacturing and technological development very much upon us.
As the industry faces the speedy onslaught of rapidly evolving technology and the increasing contest to stay one step ahead, those who shy away from high-tech computer software or want to bury their head in the sand when it comes to fresh retailing techniques might want to look away now. But if you're game to give the future a go, then read on and find out how British companies are changing – and challenging – the ways of our industry.
Rise of the Machines
The advent of computers to aid manufacture gave rise to the phrase CAD/CAM. Today's buzz term is 3D scanner; equipment that can scan a piece of jewellery and produce a 3D image of it, which can then be rendered, flipped to mirror itself or scaled up or down. Thereafter, the item can, essentially, be printed in metal or wax, layer by layer; a technique dubbed additive manufacturing. At Cookson Precious Metals the investment into a 3D scanner has allowed it to produce items so intricate they would be impossible to make by hand.
Cookson Precious Metals European product manager David Fletcher says the technology is already bringing in custom. "We are receiving a wide range of designs and products from jewellers and watchmakers alike for us to assess and produce from this process," he explains. "The production process enables [the making of] parts that previously were not possible to be produced in a very fast time frame. Concept to part in a day is possible."
Cookson Precious Metals' direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) machine is a second piece of leading kit that is enabling British jewellers to explore manufacturing technologies never before tried. "The machine removes the need for tooling or moulds and it has the ability remove weight from products without compromising the aesthetics of the part," explains Fletcher. "This is seen as a key area in an ever-increasing price sensitive market. Its gives designers the real freedom of design, the ability to produce designs that until now were not possible, and enables easy customisation, giving a fast bespoke service."
The 3D scanning equipment is also used at metal casters Weston Beamor. Its business manager Glen Day explains that the technology is used, in the main, to produce both renderings and finished bespoke fitted wedding bands in far speedier timeframes than ever before, with few limitations.
"We can scan any object [up to] the size of a large orange," Day explains. "We can then replicate, scale it in size and mirror if needed. This opens up a whole world of jewellery manufacturing opportunities – so far we've scanned twigs, seeds, bones, hand carved waxes and chimpanzees," Day explains. "We offer a complete jewellery solution [package] as long as a retailer, designer or student has a concept or a design, we can do all the rest. We can help at any point in the manufacturing process."
Other items in Weston Beamor's kit bag include precious metal casting, CAD design, on-site hallmarking and rapid prototyping.
The rise of slick, high-tech machines has also spread to wholesale volume jewellery manufacturers, and jewellery repair and manufacture company Maker Mends is now eyeing 3D scanners as a future investment. Its bespoke department – which counts UK multiples among those using the service – is exploring various types of 3D scanning and printing equipment. Maker Mends head of bespoke Michael Scott explains the benefit of such tools: "The idea that we can create jewellery which we can scan and keep on file opens up many possibilities for us. If an item was lost or stolen we have an exact record of the piece for insurance purposes. This technology will bring many new exciting possibilities."
Clicks to Diamond Glitz
The companies behind the CAD manufacturing technology have also been hard at work to produce equipment that will keep British jewellery designers at the forefront. Only this year did designer Alexander Davis win a competition through GemVision for his work using its Rhino technology, and the technology has become an integral part of many emerging designers' daily work. Davis has also recently been exploring laser sintering to create letter pendants in stainless steel and brass, which he sells in his retail store.
GemVision UK manager Graham Dicks explains that its latest launch – Rhino 5, which fully integrates with design software Matrix – will be a game changer in terms of its ability to speed up the CAD design process for retailers and designers. "It has better functionality, ease of use and much more sophisticated tools," he explains.
GemVision is also creator of CounterSketch, an in-store system that allows retailers to modify more than 2,500 ring designs with customers to create their own design of ring, giving them control of shank width, stone sizes and gem and metal types, with a chance to see renderings, 3D images, virtual on-the-finger previews and finally have the item made for them. "It allows the client to be part of the design process," Dicks states. "Where else can you go shopping and design your own item of jewellery, or any other product short of buying a box of Lego? Retail has become about brands and bespoke; now every jeweller can offer live bespoke services without increasing stock value. We are investing in bringing the industry greater control and flexibility of their design and manufacturing processes."
Bringing Jewels to Life
Several years ago Holts began a venture to create technology that would show clients how bespoke rings would look on the hand prior to them being made. This project evolved into Holition, a leading producer of cutting-edge augmented reality and virtual product visualisation that has since worked with jewellery brands and retailers including Georg Jensen, Hannah Martin and Boucheron.
Its brand director Lynne Murray describes its most pioneering campaign as working with De Beers and Forevermark diamonds. "The project was a ground-breaking experience which allowed consumers to try on jewellery online in real time throughout USA and Asia," Murray explains. "The unique aspect of this application enabled Holition to push digital diamonds to the next level. It was translated into multiple languages, and had multiple product categories."
With its original focus tailored to the jewellery industry, Holition continues to work closely with developing programs and customer experiences for jewellery companies, and says that while the technology can be challenging for brands to identify with at first – as it is often unlike anything they might have worked with before – benefits exist through creating unique marketing concepts that grab and maintain customers' attention.
The challenge now, says Murray, is getting British companies on board with its technology, overseas clients are already coming in their droves. "We now find the majority of our clients approach us from Asia, Europe and USA," she says. "We operate globally from our Hatton Garden location, and would really love to work with more UK brands. The ambitious UK brands we do work with value our team for their creativity, insight, knowledge and expertise in bringing amazing digital experiences to a public who not only use digital every day, but expect it from brands. It is this shift which we hope will encourage more UK brands to try augmented reality and digital experiences – the best projects start small and build."
So while the British jewellery industry might have its traditions, a small but innovative uprising is taking place with companies and manufacturers doing their utmost to build our confidence in what they do. After all, being today's groundbreakers means being one step ahead at all times.

Discussion in 'iOS 7' started by rcmestrinho, Aug 17, 2013.
Hi there!
Anyone is detecting issues on youtube app?
Much to my annoyance, I still cannot follow YouTube links into the app.
Had the same problem. A quick reboot solved it for me.
Same problem on iPad mini, reboot hasn't solved it.
Can't get past 'Tap to retry' - search is broken.
Did you try to reinstall the app.
I have reboot without any luck. I will try uninstall the app and install again.
Is working again!
I have found a good app for youtube called ProTuber! You can choose de quality and download videos for your iPhone! Try it because is free.
Thanks for all the help guys!
I had to reinstall youtube to get it to work. The issue began with beta 5.
I just use Jasmine, it's a much better Youtube app and I'm having no trouble with it. It's by the same developer who made Alien Blue.
youtube app wont let you share whatever video you want.. you choose to share via email or message but nothing comes up afterwards
Oddly I have yet to experience any issues with YouTube app running beta
Use the (mobile) website instead of any specific YouTube apps and iOS 7 (Unlike 6) allows background audio from whatever you're watching to continue when the device is locked or in another app.
I had the same problem. All it took was a simple "Sign Out" and after I signed back it, all was normal.

Yes, 2 billion.
We all know that Facebook is the biggest social media platform, but that number is still surprising. Last March, it was just at 1.94 billion and you could fairly say that 60 million users joined in just a span of 3 months.
If you don't think that's big, let me remind you that the current estimated Global population as of April 2017 is 7.5 billion. That means that over a quarter of all the people in the world uses Facebook every month. The company also noted some significant milestones:
- Over 1 billion people use Groups every month
- 800 million people Like something every day
- 175 million people use the Love reaction every day
They even made a video to commemorate these special achievements.
Congratulations, Facebook. It will be a sight to see how you guys intend to keep growing as there are only so many people in the world.

CD Reviews
Bradly Briggs | TOLUCA LAKE, CALIFORNIA | 08/29/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Thelma Houston possesses one of the most glorious fiery voices ever and this sadly overlooked classic should have been a huge success but with no promotion this amazing work was only known and enjoyed by those of us who know that Thelma Houston is one of the greatest singers ever and this is one of her finest...get this fast if you love great singers who are at their peak!
Opening with the jamming "What He Has" which has a great mix of Thelma on fire with a rap by Trick, this one is off the track and is full of flowing yet complex rhythm changes and totally infectious..."You Can Float In My Boat" is dreamy quite storm romantic bliss while "Throw You Down" is a classic dance floor stomp with a wildly soulful Thelma vocal that is totally HOT and should have brought Thelma another Grammy Award but they must have been asleep again..."A Man Who Isn't Smooth" is jazzy and romantic and shows that Thelma sure can get to the core of the meaning of a song in her own brilliant and original way. Stiring strings with a great keyboard open a pulsating "High" which puts the listener on a natural high from a truly great musical experience that brilliantly continues with the wildly magnificent "Serious" that is a seriously great funky jammer that would have been a huge hit with any exposure at all...this tremendous work easily contains at least six or seven top ten hits and it must have blown everyone connected to this great project that this did not happen...I have enjoyed this wonderous collection since it was released and everyone who hears this lost masterpiece wants a copy so get yours while it is available...engrossing and unique make "Short Life" a great and wonderfully flowing listening experience as is the engaging "Got To Be Yourself" with a strong multi-tracked Thelma vocal hitting some wonderful gospel-like highs! "I Won't Forget" is another winner in a collection full of them and the mesmerizing closing "Out Of My Hands" is completely hypnotic with a grand flowing arrangement and of course another magical vocal from the incredible Thelma Houston...Bravo Thelma and ENCORE please...its been way too long!!!"
She has the voice
Sinitta | Germany | 01/14/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Thelma still has it. She's got such a great big voice. This album is a rather modern dance album with very catchy tracks. It works out very well. And Thelma still looks so young. If you can catch her live: she's really good and looks like she's only 20 :)"
Thelma Is Cookin' Red Hot!!!
Beverly Praiswater | 05/28/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Why in the wide, wide world this album never received more air play or recognition is beyond me!!! Produced by the great Richard Perry, diva Thelma Houston has never sounded better since "Don't Leave Me This Way". She truly scorches the tracks. If you love Thelma Houston, this CD is a must. Get your hands on it."

Sixteenth session
Concluding observations of the Committee on the
Rights of the Child: Australia
1. The Committee considered the initial report of Australia (CRC/C/8/Add.31) at its 403rd to 405th meetings (CRC/C/SR.403-405) on 24 and 25 September 1997, and adopted* the following concluding observations:
A. Introduction
2. The Committee expresses its appreciation to the State party for its extensively detailed report, which has been prepared in full conformity with the Committee's guidelines, and for the submission of written replies to its list of issues (CRC/C/Q/AUS/1). The Committee notes with satisfaction the constructive and open dialogue it had with the delegation of the State party, and the detailed replies it received from the delegation during the dialogue. The Committee also notes the supplementary information provided by the delegation during and following the consideration of the report. The Committee regrets, however, that the State party did not include full information in its report on the External Territories that are administered by it. The Committee notes that article 2 of the Convention requires States parties to ensure the implementation of the Convention for areas under their jurisdiction, which therefore includes the obligation to report on progress achieved in all its territories.
B. Positive aspects
3. The Committee appreciates the State party's firm commitment to adopting measures for the implementation of the rights of the child as recognized in the Convention. The Committee notes specifically the wide range of welfare services for the benefit of children and their parents, the provision of universal and free education and the advanced health system.
4. The Committee notes the efforts by the State party in the field of law reform. The Committee welcomes the recent amendments to the Family Law Act, 1975 and the Crimes (Child Sex Tourism) Amendment Act, 1994.
5. The Committee welcomes the intention of the State party to ratify the Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption.
6. Noting the long-standing efforts made by the State party in the field of international cooperation, the Committee would like to encourage the State party to achieve the 0.7 per cent of GDP target for international assistance to developing countries.
C. Principal subjects of concern
7. The Committee is concerned that although the Convention on the Rights of the Child has been declared a relevant international instrument under the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Act, 1986, which enables the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission to refer to the Convention when it is considering complaints, this does not give rise to legitimate expectations that an administrative decision will be made in conformity with the requirements of that instrument. The Committee is also concerned that there is no right of citizens to launch complaints in the local courts on the basis of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
8. The Committee notes with concern the reservation made by the State party to article 37 (c) of the Convention. The Committee notes that this reservation might impede the full implementation of the Convention.
9. The Committee is concerned about the absence of a comprehensive policy for children at the federal level. It is also concerned by the lack of monitoring mechanisms at federal and local levels. Such mechanisms are of essential importance for the evaluation and promotion of the development of policies and programmes for the benefit of children. Disparities between the different states' legislation and practices, including budgetary allocations, are of concern to the Committee.
10. The Committee notes that the Convention and its principles are not generally known to the public, although the notion of rights is. The Committee regrets that there seems to be lack of adequate understanding in some quarters of the community of the principles of the Convention, as well as its holistic and interrelated approach, and the importance that the Convention places on the role of the family.
11. The Committee also expresses its concern that employment legislation on the federal level, as well as in all the states, does not specify minimum age(s) below which children are not allowed to be employed. The law also does not prohibit the employment of children who are still in the compulsory education. The Committee is deeply concerned that the minimum age of criminal responsibility is generally set at the very low level of 7 to 10 years, depending upon the state.
12. The Committee is concerned that the general principles of the Convention, in particular those related to non-discrimination (art. 2) and the respect for the views of the child (art. 12) are not being fully applied.
13. While noting the information provided by the delegation of the State party on a number of programmes to raise health standards for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and the State party's intention to start a two-year anti-racism campaign, the Committee is nonetheless concerned about the special problems still faced by Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders, as well as by children of non-English-speaking backgrounds, with regard to their enjoyment of the same standards of living and levels of services, particularly in education and health.
14. The Committee is concerned that in some instances, children can be deprived of their citizenship in situations where one of their parents loses his/her citizenship.
15. The Committee expresses its concern about the lack of prohibition in local legislation of the use of corporal punishment, however light, in schools, at home and in institutions; in the view of the Committee this contravenes the principles and provisions of the Convention, in particular articles 3, 5, 6, 19, 28 (2), 37 (a), (c), and 39. The Committee is also concerned about the existence of child abuse and violence within the family.
16. The Committee is also concerned by local legislation that allows the local police to remove children and young people congregating, which is an infringement on children's civil rights, including the right to assembly.
17. The Committee is concerned that women working in the private sector are not systematically entitled to maternity leave, which could result in different treatment between children of State employees and those working in other sectors.
18. While noting the support services that are provided to homeless children, including housing, education and health services, the Committee remains concerned at the spread of homelessness amongst young people. The Committee is worried that this puts children at risk of involvement in prostitution, drug abuse, pornography, or other forms of delinquency and economic exploitation. The incidence of suicide among young people is an additional cause of concern to the Committee.
19. The Committee is concerned about the continued practice of female genital mutilation in some communities, and that there is no legislation prohibiting it in any of the states.
20. The Committee is concerned about the treatment of asylum seekers and refugees and their children, and their placement in detention centres.
21. The situation in relation to the juvenile justice system and the treatment of children deprived of their liberty is of concern to the Committee, particularly in the light of the principles and provisions of the Convention and other relevant standards such as the Beijing Rules, the Riyadh Guidelines and the United Nations Rules for the Protection of Juveniles Deprived of their Liberty.
22. The Committee is also concerned about the unjustified, disproportionately high percentage of Aboriginal children in the juvenile justice system, and that there is a tendency normally to refuse applications for bail for them. The Committee is particularly concerned at the enactment of new legislation in two states, where a high percentage of Aboriginal people live, which provides for mandatory detention and punitive measures of juveniles, thus resulting in a high percentage of Aboriginal juveniles in detention.
D. Suggestions and recommendations
23. In the light of the Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action of 1993, the Committee encourages the State party to review its reservation to article 37 (c) with a view to its withdrawal. The Committee emphasizes that article 37 (c) allows for exemptions from the need to separate children deprived of their liberty from adults when that is in the best interests of the child.
24. The Committee recommends that the State party create a federal body responsible for drawing up programmes and policies for the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and monitoring their implementation. The Committee suggests that cooperation in the field of the rights of the child between the authorities and non-governmental organizations as well as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities should also be further strengthened.
25. The Committee encourages the State party to allocate special funds in its international cooperation programmes and schemes to children. The Committee also encourages the State party to use the principles and provisions of the Convention as a framework for its programme of international development assistance.
26. The Committee suggests that the State party take all appropriate measures, including of a legislative nature, to prohibit corporal punishment in private schools and at home. The Committee also suggests that awareness-raising campaigns be conducted to ensure that alternative forms of discipline are administered in a manner consistent with the child's human dignity and in conformity with the Convention. The Committee also believes that cases of abuse and ill-treatment of children, including sexual abuse within the family, should be properly investigated, sanctions applied to perpetrators and publicity given to decisions taken. Further measures should be taken with a view to ensuring the physical and psychological recovery and social reintegration of the victims of abuse, neglect, ill-treatment, violence or exploitation, in accordance with article 39 of the Convention.
27. The Committee recommends that awareness-raising campaigns on the Convention on the Rights of the Child be conducted, with a particular focus on its general principles and on the importance the Convention places on the role of the family. The Committee suggests that the Convention be disseminated also in languages that are used by Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders, and by persons from non-English-speaking backgrounds. The Committee also suggests that the rights of the child be incorporated in school curricula. It further recommends that the Convention be incorporated in the training provided to law enforcement officials, judicial personnel, teachers, social workers, care givers and medical personnel.
28. The Committee believes that there is a need for an awareness-raising campaign on the right of the child to participate and express his/her views, in line with article 12 of the Convention. The Committee suggests that special efforts be made to educate parents about the importance of children's participation, and of dialogue between parents and children. The Committee also recommends that training be carried out to enhance the ability of specialists, especially care givers and those involved in the juvenile justice system, to solicit the views of the child, and help the child express these views.
29. The Committee recommends that specific minimum age(s) be set for employment of children at all levels of government. The Committee suggests that there is also a need for clear and consistent regulations in all the states on maximum allowed work hours for working children who are above the minimum employment age. The Committee also encourages the State party to consider ratifying ILO Convention No. 138 concerning minimum age for employment. While acknowledging the fact that the federal Government is planning to harmonize the age of criminal liability and raise it in all the states to 10 years, the Committee believes that this age is still too low.
30. The Committee recommends that legislation and policy reform be introduced to guarantee that children of asylum seekers and refugees are reunified with their parents in a speedy manner. The Committee also recommends that no child be deprived of his/her citizenship on any ground, regardless of the status of his/her parent(s).
31. The Committee encourages the State party to review its legislation and make paid maternity leave mandatory for employers in all sectors, in the light of the principle of the best interests of the child and articles 18 (3) and 24 (2) of the Convention.
32. The Committee encourages the State party to take further steps to raise the standards of health and education of disadvantaged groups, particularly Aboriginals, Torres Strait Islanders, new immigrants, and children living in rural and remote areas. The Committee is also of the view that there is a need for measures to address the causes of the high rate of incarceration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders children. It further suggests that research be continued to identify the reasons behind this disproportionately high rate, including investigation into the possibility that attitudes of law enforcement officers towards these children because of their ethnic origin may be contributing factors.
33. The Committee recommends that further research be carried out to identify the causes of the spread of homelessness, particularly among young persons and children, including, inter alia, the socio-economic background of the child and his/her family, and to identify any link between homelessness and child abuse, including sexual abuse, child prostitution, child pornography, and trafficking in children. The Committee also encourages the State party to adopt further policies of poverty alleviation, and to further strengthen the support services that it provides to homeless children.
34. The Committee recommends that specific laws be enacted to prohibit the practice of female genital mutilation and to ensure adequate implementation of the legislation. The Committee also recommends that further awareness-raising campaigns be conducted, in cooperation with the different communities, to sensitize them about the dangers and harm that result from this practice.
35. Finally, in the light of article 44, paragraph 6, of the Convention, the Committee recommends that the initial report and written replies presented by the State party be made widely available to the public at large and that the reports be published, along with the relevant summary records and the concluding observations adopted thereon by the Committee. Such a document should be widely distributed in order to generate debate and awareness of the Convention and its implementation and monitoring within the Government, the Parliament and the general public, including concerned non-governmental organizations.
* At the 426th meeting, held on 10 October 1997.

After placing the digital image off to the left of the page I added a second bouquet, slightly smaller, and turned it on a diagonal catty cornered to the first. I colored them both up with Copic Markers and inked the edges of the panel with Distress Ink in Antique Linen. I stamped the sentiment from Inkadinkado onto white cardstock and cut it with a Spellbinders die adding a hand cut banner underneath.

We know, we know. The weekly podcast is turning into a monthly one. It can't really be helped. Between conventions, convention planning and Rich dying of some unmentionable plague, the team hasn't exactly been able to assemble. One reader was asking why editors don't just do a comics podcast without Rich. That's like an Avengers team without Captain America. It's just not the same.
At any rate, the team is back. Rich has seen Watchmen. Dan is about to head off to catch a midnight screening. Iverson will catch it some time this weekend. Quite frankly Rich is sick and tired of talking about the movie - as that's been the dominant topic in the office for the past three weeks - but just for you guys... more Watchmen chatter.
Of course the week's books are the opening topic of the podcast. This week was a bit deceptive as quantity stepped aside for quality (not that we're complaining - we wish every week was like this). Major releases include: Batman Cacophony #3, Gotham Gazette, Secret Six #7, Solomon Grundy #1, World of New Krypton #1, Daredevil #116, Dark Reign: Fantastic Four #1, New Avengers: The Reunion #1, Secret Warriors #2, Ultimate Wolverine vs. Hulk #3 and War of Kings #1. Whew!
Spoiler Alert: Secret Warriors #1 & #2, Daredevil #116, Dark Reign: Fantastic Four #1
And rounding out the podcast? As much reader Q&A as we could cram in. We'll see you next week!

A Superb Boutique Hotel in Barcelona
When visiting Barcelona, stay in a place as beautiful and magical as the city itself: Hotel Ohla Barcelona. This five-star boutique hotel occupies an elegant neoclassical building that once held Barcelona's first department store. While the exterior might suggest the 18th century, the interior's striking contemporary design, modern facilities, and luxurious amenities firmly belong in the 21st century.
Hotel Ohla Barcelona features two exceptional restaurants and two lounges. Guests can work out at a fitness center, swim in a rooftop pool, or just chill out at a rooftop terrace lounge and take in the amazing views of the city. For business travelers, the hotel offers two meeting rooms.
The hotel's central location in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter means that guests are just a short walk from many points of interest, including Las Ramblas, the Plaça de Catalunya, the Passeig de Gracia, the Barcelona Cathedral, and the ornately decorated concert hall known as El Palau de la Música Catalana.

NBB launches new websites
If any of you have gone to the National Biodiesel Board's website recently, formerly simply www.biodiesel.org, you'd have noticed some changes. I know I did a week or so ago when I navigated there for a routine check of the site.
The association recently launched three new websites:
- NBB.org for information about the National Biodiesel Board and its activities
- Biodiesel.org for more general information about biodiesel
- And members.nbb.org, which serves as a site for members only
When you go to the old site, now the address for general biodiesel industry information (biodiesel.org), a dialogue box pops up and asks you what site you want to navigate to.
If you have any comments about the new sites, I'm sure the NBB would be interested in hearing them. Feel free to comment on them below. Until next week...

SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — Bosnian police have arrested four men, including an active officer of the state intelligence agency, suspected of committing war crimes during the country's 1992-95 conflict.
A statement from the prosecution office said Tuesday the men were senior members of the Bosnian Serb police during the war and that they are suspected of illegally imprisoning, beating and torturing Muslim Bosniak civilians in the northeast city of Janja.
The statement says the torture resulted in the death of three civilians while many others suffered lasting physical and psychological damage.
