For a minute there I thought the water was moving...then again maybe that's just some sort of acid flashback eh? The island things are too flat to the water, usually they have some curve due to changing distance of parts of it to the viewer. I love the depth done with atmosphere. Perhaps a little more green (or brown if they are just the rock kind) saturation in the foreground ones...but that could be pushing it. Excellent job.

A diplomatic star is born in Chinese first lady
Glamorous new first lady Peng Liyuan has emerged as a Chinese diplomatic star, charming audiences and cutting a distinct profile from her all-but-invisible predecessors on her debut official trip abroad.world Updated: Mar 25, 2013 16:08 IST
Glamorous new first lady Peng Liyuan has emerged as a Chinese diplomatic star, charming audiences and cutting a distinct profile from her all-but-invisible predecessors on her debut official trip abroad.
Peng was featured prominently in Sunday's Chinese media coverage of her husband President Xi Jinping in Russia on his first state visit since he assumed the presidency earlier in March.
A celebrated performer on state television, Peng watched song-and-dance routines at a performing arts school on Saturday, but did not join in as some media reports had suggested she might.
The couple arrived in Tanzania later on Sunday, and their trip also includes stops in South Africa and Congo.
An internationally popular first lady could help soften China's sometimes abrasive international image and mark a victory in its so-far unsuccessful struggle to win over global public opinion.
At the same time, she could boost the popularity of the country's new leadership at a time when citizens are feeling increasingly alienated and are fed up with the ruling class's corruption and regal airs.
In recent years, the wives of China's top officials have traditionally gone almost unseen at home and attracted little attention while accompanying their husbands on state visits.
That was in part a negative reaction to Mao Zedong's wife, Jiang Qing, who was widely despised and later imprisoned for her role as leader of the radical Gang of Four, which mercilessly persecuted political opponents during the chaotic 1966-76 Cultural Revolution.
Recently retired Premier Wen Jiabao's wife, Zhang Peili, became known for her role in the country's gem trade and was never seen in public with her husband.Meanwhile, Bo Xilai, one of China's most ambitious politicians, was brought down in spectacular style last year following his wife's involvement in the murder of a British businessman, setting off the country's nastiest political scandal in years.
Women in general wield relatively little power at the top of the Chinese power structure, with just two sitting on the ruling Communist Party's 25-member decision-making Politburo.
Peng's emerging high profile appears to be an extension of Xi's own confidence as he consolidates his control on power and presses a more assertive role for China in global affairs, said Steve Tsang, director of the China Policy Institute at Britain's University of Nottingham.
Her training as a singer and stage performer offers the perfect preparation for such a role, he said.
"Peng is projecting a certain poise and confidence that Xi himself is carrying and he doesn't need to worry about what other (politicians) might think of her," Tsang said.
Peng's image was splashed across Chinese newspapers over the weekend, shown descending arm-in-arm with Xi as they descended from their aircraft after arriving in Moscow on Friday.
Her visit to the arts school was carried by state broadcaster CCTV on its main Sunday news broadcast and reported in national newspapers.
The popular Beijing News tabloid ran a full page of items on Peng's appearances on Sunday, alongside a photo of her arriving at a speech Xi gave Saturday, dressed in an elegant Chinese-style silk tunic and skirt.
"In her role as first lady on this visit abroad, Peng Liyuan is exhibiting China's soft power," the paper quoted Wang Fan, head the Institute of International Relations at China Foreign Affairs University, as saying.
"As a singer and artist and a long-term advocate for poverty relief and other causes, Peng has an excellent public image."
Much of the coverage focused on her personal style, with a report on the mass-market sina.com website noting with satisfaction that the black leather clutch she paired with the outfit was made to order by a Chinese firm in the southwestern city of Chengdu, a flattering contrast with prominent Chinese female politicians scorned publicly for appearing decked head to toe in foreign designer brands.
"In practical terms, this is an important show of support for China's domestic industries, but in the larger sense, it should raise national self-respect and confidence," read a posting on China's popular Weibo microblogging service left by Lin Zhibo, Gansu provincial bureau chief of the Communist Party's flagship newspaper, People's Daily.
Chen Li, a real estate agent from the central city of Changsha, said Peng was well-known for her modest ways and calm, dignified manner.
"She's known to be elegant and fashionable, but she's also very low-key and doesn't seem arrogant in the way that you usually associate with the wives of top leaders," Chen said.
Peng, 50, largely retired from public life after Xi was made China's leader-in-waiting in 2007, but in recent years has won new acclaim as an ambassador for the World Health Organization.
Among the issues she has worked on are tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS — diseases that still carry considerable social stigma in China.
She also made headlines last year by appearing alongside Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates as part of a campaign to discourage smoking, a high-profile cause in a country where about two-thirds of men smoke.
Peng is Xi's second wife, and the two are separated in age by almost a decade.
While Xi's father was a leading revolutionary and former vice-premier, making his son a member of the "red aristocracy," Peng comes from relatively humble origins and joined the People's Liberation Army when she was 18. The couple has one daughter, a student at Harvard who remains out of the limelight.
While sometimes described as a folk singer, Peng holds the rank of PLA major general and is best known for her stirring renditions of patriotic odes, often while wearing full dress uniform.
Although her rank is largely honorary, her military status could lead to awkward questions, said University of Nottingham's Tsang.
"Sooner or later, someone is going to ask whether that's completely normal, even if she doesn't have any real military or political ambitions," Tsang said.

What's your favorite kid-friendly app?
With twin 10 year old boys, I love any app that makes practicing math facts fun. For example, apps such as Math Bingo, Everyday Mathematics Baseball Multiplication and Math Ninja. For my 14 year old son, I am grateful that the Kahn Academy has an app for my son to watch the videos no matter where he is! But we all of my boys use Kindle app for reading digital books and Audible.com to listen to audiobooks.

Saw what looked like a red striped Y-Wing last night on a CW season 2 commercial. It was a very brief fly by over what looked like Geonosis, but I bet that will be the next paint scheme offered on this thing.
I am starting to get concerned these will not hit any brick and mortar retail outlets around here at all. It's very odd for a toy to have been out this long (over 6 weeks now at least) and not a single one has shown up at any of the 20+ stores I check each week. I just don't see any movement on those space-sucking Turbo Tanks and ARC-170's. I think they are going to lay there forever and completely impede the flow of new toys to the shelves.
...These will be easy to find by the holiday shopping season.
I actually saw this for the first time in Walmart last night (figures, after ranting about it) but in a cruel twist of fate they only had one on display and the box was damaged. Not acceptable.
I always freak out that stuff will be tough to find and of course at some point it isn't. But my normal rule of thumb as a non opener is buy it when you see it, even in a beat up box, and then exchange it for a better box when you find it again, JUST IN CASE it really does turn out to be tough to find. I'd rather have a crushed box than none at all. My two cents.

JPC gives clean chit to PM, FM in 2G scam, Oppn protests
The draft report of the JPC has reportedly cleared PM Manmohan Singh and finance minister P Chidambaram in the 2G spectrum scam but that may not be enough as the UPA lacks majority in the panel. Saubhadra Chatterji reports. Numbers gamedelhi Updated: Apr 19, 2013 22:19 IST
The draft report of the joint parliamentary committee (JPC) has reportedly cleared Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and finance minister P Chidambaram in the 2G spectrum scam but that may not be enough as the UPA lacks majority in the panel.
After the exit of the Trinamool Congress and DMK, the UPA numbers are down to 12 in the 30-member panel. Its outside supporters, Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party, have a member each while the opposition (including the Trinamool and DMK) has 16 members.
The draft report also trashes the Rs 1.76 lakh crore presumptive loss computed by the comptroller and auditor general, sources said. Chapter 7 of the report argues that the national auditor adopted wrong methodology to calculate presumptive losses.Neither the PM nor the finance minister were aware of Raja's dubious decisions, claims the draft report, which is also unlikely to accept attorney general GE Vahanvati's argument that he was not kept in the loop by then telecom minister A Raja. Some telecom policies during the NDA tenure may also come in for criticism.
The opposition has already made its displeasure known. "The JPC has acted along political lines. We will oppose this report," said CPI's Gurudas Dasgupta. Samajwadi Party was non-committal. "I am yet to see the draft report," said party leader Shailendra Kumar.

Link building is something a lot of people struggle to do effectively. The problem isn't always knowing how to build links, it's sticking to a couple of tactics and ensuring they yield results before moving onto the next one. In this post I am going to discuss to one tactic you can implement straight away using Google Alerts & RSS Feeds.
1. Building Ideas
One of the biggest mistakes people make is treating link building as a numbers game. They build a bunch of links and never think about them again. You should treat every piece of content as a sales piece for the site you are promoting. The content should be topical and relevant to the industry you are in. It should be themed around popular subjects.. To get ideas for your content, build your own RSS Feeds as follows:
a. search.twitter.com
You can enter keywords in search.twitter.com and build a social feed for them. If you use RT "keyword", it will tell you what people are retweeting. The feed is available at the top right hand corner.
b. Digg / Delicious / PopURLS
These 3 sites are not only great sources of information, but can be used to highlight popular content around your target keyword. All of them allow you to search on a particular keyword and sign up to that RSS feed. Again this will allow you to quickly scan through content and see what is being marked as popular.
2. Stalking Article Writers
Once you have decided on your content from step one, do some investigating on where this kind of content gets picked up. Go to Ezine Articles and find a similar article. Click into it and check right down the bottom for "Most Published EzineArticles in the <Selected Category>". Select a couple of those article titles and punch into Google [intitle:"<Article Title>"]. This will build you a list of sites (link targets) that accept content you are going to write and also popular writers in your market. For each writer you deem the most popular (you guessed it), sign up to their RSS Feed on Ezine.
3. Tracking Your Links
You should now have produced a batch of content that is already been picked up my 3rd party sites in your market. What most people do wrong at this point is seed the content and then forget about it. This is where Google Alerts come in. Create an alert for every piece of content you seed out. Simply track the article title (in quotes). Within your Google Alerts, set these as "Feed" and pull them into a folder named for the keyword you are targeting. The default for these is "Email"
Now you have a bunch of great articles out in the wild being picked up by 3rd party sites. Each time an article is picked up, review the site and offer more unique content if it's worth getting a better link from them.
This is just one easy tactic you can implement straight way using RSS Feeds + Google Alerts. There are literally dozens of like these.

Prof Rebecca Taylor, Dean of the OU Business School
More than a third (39%) of SME owners aged over 65 still do not know when they will retire, according to the Quarterly Survey of Small Business in Britain(*), produced by The Open University (www.open.ac.uk/quarterly-survey) with support from ACCA (The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) and Barclays business banking.
Half the UK's SME owners report that they have changed their retirement and succession plans as a result of the economic downturn. 42% of owners are expecting to carry on running their businesses for longer, delaying their retirement, while 7% expect to close or sell their business sooner. More than half (59%) of those which expect to close early report that their turnover was down over the past year. Despite the financial crisis, almost half (47%) of owners are still confident they will be able to retire by the age of 65, but 18% expect to retire between the ages of 66 and 70 and 11% believe they will be running their business beyond their 70th birthday.
Pensions have been highlighted as a concern, with 28% of SME owners expecting to struggle in retirement. This proportion increases to 35% for the smallest businesses and drops to 20% for medium-sized firms.
Professor Rebecca Taylor, Dean of The Open University Business School said: "The economic downturn has created a number of serious challenges for Britain's SME owners. Our latest survey findings suggest that many owners, particularly those with smaller businesses, are having to make significant changes as they plan for retirement and succession. While some owners may never have intended to give up the business, many now expect to work for much longer than they had envisaged."
Sue Hayes, Barclays business banking, said: "It is never too early for business owners to start planning their retirement. These research figures show that, especially in the current economic environment, the need for retirement planning advice is even greater, particularly for those who are nearing or beyond retirement age. Our business relationship managers are available to provide support and advice to older entrepreneurs so that their businesses can continue to thrive when the time comes to hand over the reins."
The survey also examined SME performance and prospects, and asked owners and managers about the major problems they were facing. While some SMEs remain optimistic, the picture is mixed with large variations by sector and region. SMEs in the East Midlands reported the best sales performance (+24%) for the sixth time in the last seven surveys. It was a different story for their neighbours in the West Midlands, which saw significant deterioration in the sales balance (from +20% to just +4%), and were the only region to report a negative sales expectation balance (-1%) for the first quarter of 2012. Scotland's SMEs were the most optimistic, with a balance of +19% expecting an increase in sales. Yorkshire and the Humber's SME owners reported a marked sales improvement from -7% to +14%, and they rated themselves as the most entrepreneurial region in the country. The East of England rated itself as the least entrepreneurial region.
As in every survey in the past year, retailers reported the worst sales performance (-16% compared with -6%), cutting jobs far more often in this survey. Manufacturers, wholesalers and agricultural firms saw the best sales performance. SMEs once again cited 'economic climate and demand' as their top problem (59%), as per the last four years, followed by 'cashflow, payment or debtors' (31%) and competition (31%).

We finally got the last bit of information that failed to leak about the Motorola Droid on Verizon…
According to the press release: DROID by Motorola will be available in the United States exclusively at Verizon Wireless Communications Stores and online on Friday, Nov. 6, for $199.99 with a new two-year customer agreement after a $100 mail-in rebate. Customers will receive the rebate in the form of a debit card; upon receipt, customers may use the card as cash anywhere debit cards are accepted.
With the recent DroidDoes campaign that was attacking the iPhone, we expected the phone would be priced competitive with the iPhone 3G S ($199). On the other hand, Motorola's first Android phone, the T-Mobile Cliq, also retails for $199.
I'm glad to see Verizon offer the $100 rebate, but it kind of makes you appreciate how AT&T and Apple are able to price the iPhone 3G S so low.

Dear Friends,
I have been blown away with the number of people who have been in contact with me over the past 3 months about Creation Ministries, Creation Museums, and Creation Events. We all see the tidal-wave that is coming. Over 40,000,000 students will begin High School this next month all being indoctrinated with the religion of Humanistic Evolution. Stats show that we are losing the culture war and people within the church can not effectively defend their faith in God and His Word.
The response to Satan's attempt to destroy the Church and the Authority of God's Word in these last days needs to be bigger than any one ministry. It needs to be approached from several fronts. The mission field is HUGE and the opportunities are endless. Each of you know the joy of showing someone the truth and seeing the Holy Spirit light up their life as they finally understand the Biblical Foundation for life.
I would like to ask each of you to fast and pray with me on Friday, August 1. You can fast a single meal, or all day. The reason for this fast is to seek God, that we might hear and understand His perfect and pleasing will as we move forward with the endeavors that He has so graciously laid before us.
Please keep the following in prayer during the day:
- How to create more synergy for the Creation/Apologetic movement. With all the creation ministries out there, we have still only scratched the surface of what needs to be accomplished in our culture.
- Wisdom as we work with other Creation Ministries.
- How to have more Creation Museums around the country that give glory to God for His amazing creation.
- What a business model would look like for a viable sustainable Creation Museum / Science Center. (Stationary or Traveling) Possibly small and reproducible.
- Divine Appointments to use the Apologetic Curriculum being developed with Creation Today and Educate for Life to reach and teach millions of individuals with the truth that they need to defend their faith.
- The Genesis 3D Movie Project – Beginning to look at distributors and options. Opportunities to partner with others.
- Favor, God's Favor.
The list could go forever, but these are a few of the specifics that I would like you to keep in mind.
Thank you for your friendship and for your investment into the Kingdom. Eternity will tell the story of our efforts here on earth.
For God's Glory,

Special Projects
Motivated by the Foundation's programmatic interests in both the arts and theology, and by instances of conflict between these two significant realms of American life as reported by scholars and by the press in recent years, the Luce Foundation initiated the research project Art and Religion in American Life. Activities date back to a 1994 conference that was intended to move beyond slogans and rhetoric and get at the root causes why, given their many similarities, art and religion are often perceived as adversaries, and why religious language is used to justify attacks on the arts.
Since that time, the Foundation has supported a three-part social science research agenda which is reveals much about Americans' experiences with arts and religion, and the perceived relationships between them. Briefly, the research projects are: 1) the insertion of questions on this subject in the 1998 General Social Survey and in the National Congregations Study, both of which report on the prevailing attitudes of contemporary Americans, conducted by Harvard professor Peter Marsden; 2) an "Elite Interviews Project" consisting of in-depth interviews with art and religious leaders nationwide, conducted by Princeton professor Robert Wuthnow; 3) case studies of community confrontations between religious and arts values in one major city, conducted by Princeton professor Paul DiMaggio.
The Foundation gathered additional information from several meetings held in 1998 and 1999. The first session included scholars and foundation representatives, and another convened humanities scholars to broaden the discussion. The role that the press plays in the ongoing relationship between the arts and religious communities, an important missing link, was explored in a meeting of journalists. And an artists' forum was convened in Spring 2000 as the final component of the Foundation's research. Building on the research, the Foundation is also working with leaders in the Twin Cities to develop a national model for community interaction.

I would like to thank the Butler Eagle for the Nov. 5 article "Expo promotes manufacturing in county."
For the past several years, on the first weekend of November and at the Clearview Mall, a grass-roots effort has been under way to build awareness about the many manufacturing companies in our region.
The event is sponsored by the Butler County Manufacturing Consortium.
The many volunteers from this group were able to speak with many adults and children who came by to learn more about the products we make, how we make them, where our parts go throughout the world and, most importantly, how anyone can take steps to join one of our companies.
It was very rewarding to let people know and understand that many products that they might have in their homes, cars or at work have components that started right here in Butler County.
In addition, we hosted a science demonstration that not only allowed for free samples of ice cream made with liquid nitrogen, but we were able to explain to many how that fun process actually is used by many metal workers to bring about stability and strength to our products, too.
There is a reason why Butler County has consistently performed better with regard to the unemployment rate than the national average. While we do have leading-edge manufacturing technologies, more importantly, we employ some of the most highly skilled, motivated, dedicated and proudest workers in the nation. Each acts as his or her own entrepreneur when it comes to problem-solving and offering unique and technical solutions to the many customers we work with from around the world.
We always have been proud to make things here in Butler County, and the Butler County Manufacturing Consortium will continue to support any and all efforts to educate the public and entice the next great leaders of industry and business for our nation's success.
By doing so, Butler County can look forward to the continued path for a greater tomorrow.

Howd it go out there today?
It was good. Minicamp is as close to training camp as you get just as far as the schedule of getting here early with the meeting time, getting on the field and putting together a little longer of a practice. Now were going back to meetings and going back through a walkthrough. It was just kind of a full day of all football. I thought today was good. Were in our red zone installation, so (were) just kind of making our way through our installation both offensively and defensively. (The) defense is throwing a lot at us and offensively were trying to fine-tune some things. Its competitive and fun watching these young guys develop as well.
Youve been through OTAs so this isnt foreign to you at this point, but the fans see you and Sean Payton back together going through the offense that you guys do. What is that like for you guys?
He calls the plays and we execute them. Thats our job, but obviously its great to have him back out there. I know everybody wants to keep talking about that, but its kind of old hat for us. Hes back and here we go.
Drew youre seeing, Im assuming, a lot less of Joe Vitt than maybe you did last year because hes back in his element. Do you get the sense that hes one of those elements that is back to normal?
Well its funny because prior to last year, when obviously he was the interim head coach, you knew he was doing his stuff with the linebackers and just exclusively defense and Id see him every now and then. But we kind of had our moments where hed grab me and say man I havent seen you in awhile, and wed kind of hug it out and talk for a little bit. Obviously, last year the roles were a little expanded and things were a little different. Hes been a ball coach for a long time. He loves the game. He brings a fire and a passion and we all love playing for him. Despite the circumstances that thrust him in that role, I think that being back to just Joe Vitt, linebacker coach and assistant head coach, it helps and everybodys back into their role now.
Are there any rookies on defense that have stood out to you so far?
Kenny Vaccaro has been getting a lot of snaps and a lot of time. I think he can play a big role in this defense. Some of the young guys up front, I dont really watch them as much. I pay more attention to whats happening in the secondary. Just seeing guys like Martez Wilson, whom I know isnt a rookie, but kind of finding a role. Some other guys are starting to stick out and you can see how they can fit into what were doing defensively and how we can utilize some of their strengths and its fun to see that.
With Devery Henderson not around can you see a guy like Nick Toonbeing at that level of receiver?
I think weve got a great group of young receivers that really all have a chance to make their mark and find a place in that group. Youve got Marques Colston and Lance Moore, who are the two veteran guys left. Joe Morgan coming off what he did last season and now what weve seen this offseason, I see him continuing to improve. Beyond that I think its wide open in those spots left. Andy Tanner is a guy thats been here for a while that continues to impress. Kenny Stills is showing a lot of promise. Hes a young, talented guy. All those guys understand that they are going to get some opportunities and they have to make the most of them and see how they can fit into this offense. At the end of the day we dont know how its going to shake out but theres a lot of time between now and cuts at the end of (training) camp. Whoever earns those spots will deserve it.

Opening statement:
We held out Benjamin Watson, Ryan Steed, Keenan Lewis and Terron Armstead, we took in midway through practice, so those are the four guys we are talking about. Overall today (practice) went really well. We installed red zone for the first time today and we got to third down as well.
How good is it having Charles Brown back?
I think its important with the snaps, that he is able to receive as many as he can, especially mentally, just being out there with the protections and the different looks we are getting from our defense.
Is it too early to tell if the defense is making any progression?
I think we have good competition, especially in the periods when we are in the red area and tight red zone and we finished practice with third down so, there was an even flow back and forth, but I thought overall I was pleased with the tempo and the competitive nature of the periods.
What have been the challenges for Joe Vitt?
He has coached a lot of time, he has coached and seen a lot of football. He is invaluable to what we are doing. There are so many different ways to skin the cat if you will or call defenses or offenses. Often times there are things that carry over, but his experience is important with what we do, certainly his leadership.
Can you talk about the backup quarterback competition?
Obviously Ryan Griffin is the young guy from Tulane and then the two other players have both seen snaps in our league and have experience, Seneca Wallace and Luke McCown. I am anxious to see them progress through the offense. They are both picking things up well. Luke has been here before and (this is) Senecas first time, but so far they have handled it well.
What did you think about the aggressiveness of the defense today?
Well we are working on it a lot, youve seen pressures, you are seeing drop eights, and you are seeing a lot of different things that we are trying to begin to install. There are going to be at times some protection challenges and I think the key offensively is to settle in and know how to handle the different looks you are getting, but I think thats good, especially now. I think the importance of the mental aspect of what we are doing is something we emphasize.

PATEROS The Pateros High School volleyball team received a send-off today to the state tournament that featured high-fives, hugs and goofy gifts from preschool children.
To wish the girls luck and see them off on their way to Yakima, dozens of students, teachers, AmeriCorps volunteers and parents gathered outside the school this morning to cheer and wave.
The team is scheduled to practice at 2:30 p.m. at Riverside Christian. The Nannies will take on Quilcene at 1:30 p.m. Friday at the Takima SunDome.
"We're all looking forward to playing," senior Chloe Gill said. "We're all pretty excited, and our goal is to do better than last year. We got seventh last year, so we're hoping to exceed that."
"Just awfully good," coach Gene Dowers said when asked how it felt to be going to state. "Really, really good. It's a huge advantage to go into state as a district champion. The draw worked well for us, the seedings all worked well. It gives us a great opportunity.
"There's a chance. I feel really great about these kids. They're an amazing group."
The players cheerfully accepted gifts from children with ABC Preschool and Daycare, where senior Jessi Dowers helps out, assistant coach Carlene Anders said.
"They wanted to see her off today," Anders said. "They were pretty excited today to be able to do that. They thought it was the best."
"I'm really happy for them. They had a really great season and this will be a really good finish to it," English teacher Elyse Darwood said.
Bridgeport will also be competing at the state volleyball tournament. It will take on Toutle Lake at 8 a.m. Friday.

Tonight I happened to eavesdrop (the beauty of Twitter) on a Twitter conversation between Bobby Ghaheri, MD (@DrGhaheri) and Chad Peterson (@hosewater2). Dr. Ghaheri is an ENT/Facial Plastic Surgeon and Dr. Peterson is a hockey loving urologist. I loved their twitter exchange about email and Twitter follow up with patients, so I'm posting it here for others to comment on.
UPDATE: Since there's a problem with pulling in the tweets automatically from Twitter, here's what was said:
DrGhaheri Bobby Ghaheri, MD
I use email and Twitter to follow-up on my patients. #hcsm
hosewater2 Chad Peterson
@DrGhaheri I don't use email or twitter with patients. Just encourages unnecessary undocumented interactions. Is twitter HIPaa certified?
DrGhaheri Bobby Ghaheri, MD
@hosewater2 I document the conversation in EMR.
@hosewater2 Chad Peterson
@DrGhaheri wow, so double the time investment then. Interesting
DrGhaheri Bobby Ghaheri, MD
@hosewater2 yup. But not having to answer a phone note saves on the back and forth, which is what I'd prefer

Dirty Shrimp
Every New Year's eve we gather in our home with family and friends to toast the turning of the year. The kitchen table is packed with finger foods, and there's usually a large platter filled with shrimp.
If serving as an appetizer, serve immediately in a chafing dish with toothpicks. If serving as an entree, add beer and simmer 1 minute. Serve over rice with French Fread on the side to dip into the sauce.

Pop the bubbly, the creator of Twisted Metal and God of War helps us ring in the new year with his favorite games of 2012!
I agree with Sound Shapes, I downloaded it and go back to it every once in a while. I enjoy the music (instrumentals) in that game and it is a great platforming game. SS is one of the few games that put two different genres together, and do it so well. The best way to play is with Headphones, on a Vita. IMO
David's taste in games is pretty unique and gives a great example of the type of guy he really is. David Jaffe seems like a cool guy and it seems that he doesn't have any bad blood with Sony and I'm happy he pointed out that he is not working on a handheld title or a big fan of them, so no one can jump and say he is working on a handheld title. I would like to know what game he is working on with Jenova Chen or if they still are doing a game together.
He plays everything, enjoys every console and that is the type of developer we need in this industry. Oh, and his daughter is so funny; walking in the room and asking who is GiantBomb. Favorite game Minecraft, not Twisted Metal. Priceless.
I bought Mutant Blobs attack on Steam a few days ago, really enjoying it. I just need to get a gold medal on two more levels to S-rank it.
Black Ops 2 was hand down the best game of this console generation.
Thirty Flights of Loving. I still really need to play that game.

The University of South Carolina Beaufort women's soccer team has added seven recruits for the 2013 season, head coach Ed Heberling announced Wednesday.
Highlighting the recruiting class is Bridgette Noonan, a midfielder for two-time defending state champion Hilton Head Island.
Noonan is joined by fellow midfielders Shannon Blair (Fort Mill) and Jamie Smith (Locust Grove, Ga.), forwards Cameron Croney-Clark (Paris, Ky.) and Brittany Lorentz (Burlington, Ontario) and defenders Brittany Pacifico (Palm Coast, Fla.) and Caroline Bowman (Shelby, N.C.).
"We are excited to have these young ladies join the Sand Shark soccer program," Heberling said. "After a tremendous second season, our goals and expectations have increased.
"I feel this recruiting class will fill some holes we have and give us some more depth to be more competitive next season. These future Sand Sharks, in addition to our returning players, will continue to raise the bar and help take our program to another level next season."
USCB finished with a 9-10 overall mark and qualified for the Sun Conference tournament in its second season of competition in 2012.
The Sand Sharks lost four seniors but return most of their top players, including all-conference goalkeeper Chelsie Mummert, top point-scorer Jessica Tooley and the three players who tied for the team lead in goals - Stephanie Moldenhauer, Maddie Zak and Olivia Dizon.
Softball adds three for 2014
The Sand Shark softball team did not announce any new signings on Wednesday, but USCB previously added three recruits for the 2014 season.
Head coach Ty Rietkovich announced the signing of a pair of in-state standouts in August, adding pitcher Kendall Jumper (Walterboro) and infielder Taylor Ernestine (Ridgeland). USCB signed infielder/outfielder Emily Pauley (Peachtree City, Ga./) in December.
USCB will lose three seniors of this year's team, which began its second season of competition with a doubleheader sweep of St. Andrews University on Saturday.
The Sand Sharks went 37-11 in their inaugural campaign and go into the 2013 season ranked No. 21 in the NAIA Preseason Coaches Top 25 and picked to win the Sun Conference.

Secrets of Highclere Castle The castle's architect worked on Britain's Parliament building with construction beginning in 1838. When completed, it becomes the social epicenter of Edwardian England. This film shows how the aristocrats lived with an army of servants in the pre-World War I years, how the home becomes a hospital for wounded servicemen during the war, and how the current inhabitants, Lord and Lady Carnarvon, spend $1 million in annual upkeep funds in their fairytale castle.G

Sport Touring is given a new face.
Riding dynamics coupled with touring suitability - at the very highest level: that's the R 1200 RS. With its potent engine and stable suspension, the sports touring bike offers more than just a huge amount of riding pleasure. Thanks to its relaxed, sporty seating position and its perfect wind and weather protection, the bike offers an entirely new ride feel when travelling fast and riding along country roads in sporty style.
Performance meets design.
The modern concept of a dynamic blend of sports and touring motorcycle is demonstrated visually too, by means of half fairing featuring symmetrical headlamps derived from two generations of the RR. The elegantly shaped handlebar unit with attached forged aluminium section perfectly combines function and ergonomics.
The elegant and fast travel companion.
The new sports touring bike derives its supreme power from an output of 92 kW (125 bhp) delivered by an air/liquid-cooled 2-cylinder 4-stroke boxer engine with two overhead spur gear driven camshafts and a counterbalance shaft. In order to ensure stability on every country road, the highly active, electronically regulated suspension ASC (Automatic Stability Control) is featured as standard, rounded off with the modes "Rain" and "Road" - likewise standard - to provide an optimum riding experience.

Winning Breakthroughs:
Outstanding producer involvement and commitment to a take-back program and innovation in the use of post consumer recycle material.
Aveda™ Vintage Clove Shampoo from The Estee Lauder Companies – U.S.
A proactive, company-funded collection program and outreach in retail stores and schools internationally is the heart of this achievement, complementing the conversion to bottles with 96 percent recycled bottle content and caps with 100 percent post consumer recycle polypropylene. Statements on the bottle promote recycling. The bottles are made at a plant that uses 100 percent renewable wind energy.
Recognized for achievement in community education and responsible sourcing.
Renewable, compostable tray makes possible reinvention of retail baking practices and simplification of the supply chain with considerable waste reduction.
Whole Foods Baked Goods in Sealed Air's Renew-A-Pak™ compostable bakeware from Biosphere Industries – U.S.
This new 100 percent renewable content baking tray and total system thinking help change bakery processes for a more sustainable result. Previous bakery practice was to bake goods in disposable metal trays and transfer the goods to a second package for in store sales. Ultimately that package would be disposed of by the consumer as waste. Product now stays in the new dual-ovenable, microwavable trays all the way through to the consumer and are compostable at end of life, eliminating aluminum tray disposal, the need for a 2nd package or disposed of as waste at end of life.
Recognized for enhanced performance, resource and energy optimization, and effective recovery.
Revolutionary new approach to aseptic packaging cuts package weight by 50 percent and uses natural material to significantly reduce raw materials in the construction.
Ecolean Group's Lightweight Packaging - Sweden
Innovative design and use of materials enables tremendous resource reduction and energy savings. The handle design eliminates the need for a separate rigid pouring holder. Empty packages weigh just 14 grams, a nearly 50 percent weight reduction compared to cartons, which are the current standard for aseptic packaging. Use of calcium carbonate (chalk) reduces the amount of polymer needed in the structure. The low weight and volume enable shipping substantially higher quantities per truck.
Recognized for Enhanced Performance and Clean Production.
In an outstanding use of recycled content, 40 percent post consumer recycled material offsets need for virgin PET and supports the market for post consumer recycle material in these new frozen food trays.
Healthy Choice Trays from ConAgra, Developed and Produced by Associated Packaging Technologies – U.S.
A significant achievement is the high recycle content, a first in dual-ovenable food packaging. In 2008, 8MM pounds of PET were saved from the landfill through the use of post consumer recycle and 236 million less BTU's of energy were used in the making of these trays due to the use of recycle content. Typically virgin CPET is used for this type application due to cleanliness requirements. The company met FDA requirements for the use of recycle in this application.
Recognized for Resource and Energy Optimization, Clean Production and Responsible Sourcing.
Innovative clear polybag replaces corrugated for 80 percent weight reduction and 20 percent volume compression, enabling more efficient transport and improved stock handling.
Invisible Case Polyouters from Procter & Gamble – Belgium and Turkey
In a significant reduction of packaging material, P&G achieved compelling efficiencies by replacing corrugated with this polybag for multipacked detergent pouches, including more energy efficient transport. For the trade, the benefits include improved stock management and handling.
Recognized for Resource and Energy Optimization, Cost effective Economics and Enhanced Performance.
New secondary package design using less material enhances retail appeal and increased store efficiency.
All Days Pads in Tray and Hood Carton from Procter & Gamble – Germany and U.S.
Retailers want to reduce the amount of packaging in their stores. Through total systems thinking, this product was redesigned for smaller packs, the tray and hood carton design reduces material, and store labor and consumer appeal is improved on retail shelves. Less ink is used for an 80 percent printing savings. Performance is the store is significantly improved.
Recognized for Enhanced Performance, Cost Effective Economics and Resource and Energy Optimization.
Replacing glass jars with stand-up pouches uses 70 percent less material. This development overcame significant technical hurdles in shelf stable packaging for this oxygen sensitive product.
Bertolli® Pasta Sauce Pouches from Unilever and Amcor Flexibles – U.S.
Now microwavable right in the pouch, this new packaging offers significant consumer benefit and ease of use versus jars and offers retail benefits through easier handling and equivalent shelf life. The benefits of transport efficiency are substantial. One truckload of unfilled pouches equals 25 truckloads of unfilled glass jars.
Recognized for Enhanced Performance and Resource and Energy Optimization.
Redesign of pill pack reduces waste and enables entire course of treatment on a single blister card.
Prilosec OTC Pack from Procter & Gamble and Alcan Packaging – U.S.
Good systems thinking enabled this major redesign of an industry standard approach. This achievement doubled the number of pills on a blister card so that the consumer can have an entire course of treatment on a single card. This significantly cut waste in the packaging.
Recognized for Cost Effective Economics and Enhanced Performance.
Changing to an all renewable/recycled/biodegradable carton and label supports this product's organic branding while retaining shelf appeal.
Pangea Organics Holiday Gift Boxes – U.S.
Among the first significant sustainability achievements in the gift box category, this redesign fits with the brand's organic positioning and retained attractiveness while substantially reducing the amount of packaging. The carton is now entirely made of renewable, recyclable or biodegradable material and uses vegetable-based inks. Seeds are embedded in the carton which can be planted following use.
Recognized for Resource & Energy Optimization, Effective Recovery and Community Benefit.
Redesigned 20-liter drums are 30 percent more efficient for transport and storage, are now reusable and are recycled at end of life.
Easy Pour Barrier Containers from A&C Packers - Australia
This new barrier structure replaces steel drums in most common solvent applications and is reusable with a 5-year life compared to previous 1-time use. The innovative design enables better stacking and cube efficiency – 30 percent improvement. The new Easy Pour neck design also helps avoid spills or splashing when pouring. At end of life, the containers are recycled for items such as drain pipes.
Recognized for Effective Recovery and Enhanced Performance.
Notable accomplishments:
McDonalds Sandwich Clamshell developed by HAVI Global Solutions – Europe
HAVI developed the M-Burger N-Flute Clamshell to replace barrier-coated SBS while maintaining excellent product protection and providing an outstanding print surface. They took an already sustainable package and looked for a way to improve it even further by reducing its material usage by nearly 20%.
Callaway Golf "Greener on the Greens" package by Caraustar Industries – U.S.
An excellent example of source reduction in this product category, with a 50 percent reduction in material costs as well.
Tide® 2X Laundry Detergent from Procter & Gamble and Plastipak Packaging Inc. – U.S.
Redesigned bottle uses 40 percent less plastic and offers efficiency in energy use and transport. Good example of communicating sustainability benefits at the point of sale and in advertising.
Nestle Japan Soluble Coffee Refill Cartridge - Japan
A design innovation that responds to cultural desire in Japan for refillable containers vs glass jars.
Ball Resealable End – Germany and United Kingdom
An exciting technical achievement; an aluminum can end with an integrated flat opening mechanism made of plastic that allows consumers to completely reseal beverage cans.
EcoPak™ from Chicago Paper Tube & Can - U.S.
The innovation in this application is using a single paperboard container to directly package creams, balms and oil-based products without the need for additional interior plastic or glass jars.
Creative Portico India Private Limited - India
Simple in its effectiveness, replacing PVC outer bags with matching pillowcase to contain bed linens.
EasySeal® Wide Mouth Compression Closure from Rexam – Canada and U.S.
This is the first wide-mouth application for the breakaway cap eliminating the need for a PVC shrink band and the process to apply it.

text: Despite a heavy snow pack in Upper parts of the des moines river basin, no significant flooding is expected in Marion County. State Climatologist Harry Hillaker says the level of the river in our area is typical, currently around 4 feet below a flood stage of about 11 feet. Hillaker says this time of year, a flood forecast of greater than two weeks isn't very accurate, but he doesn't expect any significant precipitation to contribute to any early spring flooding.

Maybe it was public anger
over the more than 8,000 flights delayed or canceled due to various reasons this week, as of Thursday -- more than triple from the same period last year, according to one tally -- that prompted Congress to act with unaccustomed speed.
Or maybe it was because, as the cynics suggest, that the congressionally mandated furlough of 1,500 air-traffic controllers a day threatened to disrupt Congress' own travel plans for a weeklong break from Friday evening to Monday morning, May 6, to rest up from the 12 days the lawmakers were in session this month.
Cynicism will rarely steer you far wrong in Washington but, for whatever reason, Congress hastily voted to allow the Federal Aviation Administration to end the 10 percent cut in hours and pay of its 15,000 controllers as well as other employees essential to the functioning of our air-travel system.
The FAA, like every other federal agency, was the victim of Congress' and the Obama administration's ill-advised attempt to force itself to deal with the budget deficit by imposing 10 years of across-the-board budget cuts -- the "sequester" in Washington-speak -- that Congress thought would never come to pass.
The sequester did come to pass and Capitol Hill is now swarming with government and industry lobbyists seeking to carve out exceptions for their favored programs, including airline lobbyists urging full funding be restored to the FAA.
Congressional reaction to public ire over the delays was basically: Who? Me?
"How come you didn't tell us about this beforehand, the sequester, impact on the layoffs, the furloughs? Not a word. Not a breath?" House Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers, R-Ky., demanded of FAA officials this week.
With all due respect, Mr. Chairman, what did you think was going to happen when the FAA was forced to cut $637 million out of its budget?
And, as the Associated Press' Fact Check points out, U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and FAA officials have been warning of major delays since February, including at a White House press conference.
Some members of Congress have suggested the FAA could come up with the money to fully staff the air-traffic-control system by dipping into other accounts in its $16 billion annual budget, but the sequester law specifically prohibits juggling accounts.
The Senate, without a recorded vote, said the FAA could raid its other accounts for the $253 million to maintain full staffing and operations until Sept. 30.
Now the lawmakers can take their vacation and the public can go about its business with only the usual delays, but this whole thing seems unnecessary.

It may not be possible for all to visit beauty Parlour for various reasons. One can enhance their beauty while being at home using the commonly available ingredients in the kitchen. The nature has provided a number of beauty products in the form of herbs which have medicinal properties besides its use in our food.
The preparations with herbs as ingredients have curative qualities for various ailments/beauty related problems like hair fall, dandruff, lice, pimples, marks etc. Unlike chemical based beauty products, the herb based products have no side-effects on the users.
However in the present modern times, the interest of people in the use of our traditional herb based beauty products has reduced.

Thousands of young military veterans are returning home today unprepared for the transition to college. Just ask Rich Gilbert, retired Marine Scout Sniper and UC San Diego undergrad.
As president of UCSD's Student Veterans Organization, Gilbert has helped dozens of fellow vets learn basic civilian tasks, such as filing enrollment paperwork and applying for bank loans. He worries that new veterans "don't know how to transition. There's not enough time to transition." His experience is supported by evidence nationwide. According to the 2010 National Survey of Veterans, only a quarter (25.3 percent) of veterans "agreed" or "strongly agreed" that the military allowed them enough time to transition to civilian life and look for a job. More worrisome, only 34 percent of young veterans aged 18-30 indicated they were "very well" or "well" prepared to enter the civilian job market when they left military service.
Gilbert is particularly troubled that veterans are not prepared for the financial burden of higher education. Colleges and universities have traditionally been the transition centers for generations of veterans, providing them the skills and degrees they need to return to the civilian world. However, with state budget cuts and a souring economy, financial resources to support student vets are in short supply. While GI Bill benefits have increased for newer veterans, a closer look reveals the program still fails to meet its full commitment.
Student vets commonly have expenses like books, school supplies, fees, transportation costs and living expenses that far exceed their GI Bill stipend. An independent survey found that on average, local vets spend $2,100 each year on out-of-pocket education expenses. Paperwork, bureaucracy and disbursement delays have also left veterans unexpectedly short of cash at the time of school registration, forcing them to cover enrollment costs out-of-pocket.
This is no small expense because many veteran students – who are entering college in their late 20s and early 30s – have dependents, jobs and service-related injuries. Meanwhile, they face the difficult challenge of adapting to civilian life. This makes higher education a far more difficult and stressful ordeal for them than their younger peers.
Additionally, some honorably discharged vets have not fulfilled the requisite service obligations to receive the maximum education benefit under the GI Bill. Others, like Sgt. Gilbert, will see their GI Bill benefits expire before they can complete their degree coursework.
Says Gilbert, "The last thing a student veteran should have to worry about is where his next meal is coming from." We couldn't agree more. These young men and women, who courageously answered our nation's call and fought in our time of need, deserve better.
Earlier this year, we established the Military Veteran Scholarship Fund at UCSD to honor the service and sacrifices of our returning veterans. The intent of the scholarship is to fulfill a commitment to provide veterans with access to higher education, even when the GI Bill falls short. We plan to raise more than $25,000 to provide a permanent, endowed scholarship fund for deserving undergraduate students who have a minimum 3.0 GPA, demonstrate financial need and are serving with honor or who have been honorably discharged from the armed forces. Through the generous donations and pledges by family, friends, fellow alumni, UCSD staff and military veterans, we've already raised one-third of the pledges toward our goal.
With the population of student veterans expected to soar, the need for military scholarships has never been greater. Due to recent defense budget cuts and the drawdown of military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, these young men and women are returning home en masse. 2.4 million servicemen and women who enlisted or received commissions after Sept. 11, 2001, have already separated from service, and more are on the way. The National University System Institute for Policy Research – a local think tank – estimates that more than 16,000 post-9/11 veterans will move to San Diego County by the end of this decade.
Sgt. Gilbert and the UCSD veteran community are doing all they can to help fellow vets make the grade on campus, but they shouldn't be alone. We have a charge to keep. Thousands of young, brave warriors are returning home, and they need our help for the journey ahead.

How To Make Lemon Shake Ups at Home Street Fair Food Week
It's the middle of August, and you know what that means? It's fair time! County, state, and street fairs are happening all over America right now. We admit to secret cravings for fair food: the fried dough glories of funnel cakes, and the once-a-year indulgence of a hot corn dog on a stick. But we don't feel like braving the crowds this year, so instead we're bringing you fair food for your own kitchen! This whole week we've got recipes for those greasy, indulgent, summer treats that you only eat at fair time. Any requests?
First up! The very first thing we buy at a fair: icy cold lemon shake ups.
Fair food without the crowds, the dust, and the carnies. That's pretty good, right? We think so! And hopefully these treats will be just a bit healthier when cooked in your own kitchen. But really — that's not the point. These are very rare treats, but when that once-a-year opportunity for indulgence in a funnel cake comes 'round — yeah baby!
These lemon shake ups are perhaps the least indulgent thing on our week's menu; they're a glorified lemonade with lots and lots of ice, shaken until all those icy bits can get sucked up through your straw and freeze your brain. But the fair food version involves a lot of sugar, (1/2 cup per portion, perhaps?) We've cut that down just a bit, but these are still sweet and juicy, with a syrup that infuses the whole drink with sweet lemonade flavor.
Fair-Style Lemon Shake Ups
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
2 lemons
2 cups ice cubes, plus extra for serving as necessary
1 cup ice water
Bring the water and sugar to boil in a small saucepan. Boil for five minutes or until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Juice 1 1/2 lemons, reserving the fourth lemon half. Stir the lemon juice into the sugar syrup; you will have about 1 cup. Chill the lemon syrup in the fridge.
Blend the ice in a blender or food processor until it is crushed. Put half the crushed ice in a cocktail shaker, along with half the chilled lemon syrup (about 1/2 cup), along with 1/2 cup ice water. Shake vigorously for a couple minutes, then dump the whole mixture — including the ice — into a tall glass. Repeat with the remaining ice, syrup, and ice water for the second shake up.
Cut the remaining lemon half into four slices and add two slices to each glass. Sip (slowly!) and enjoy!
