Dustin Sproat, a professional hockey player and '06 graduate of Princeton University, has many passions. Throughout his youth, Sproat spent years developing his hockey skills, which he brought to Princeton as a four-year member of the varsity hockey team. Graduating in 2006 with a Chemical Engineering degree, Sproat took a brief break from hockey to work as a chemical engineer for Keyera Energy in Calgary. However, he could not give up his passion for hockey so, beginning in 2008, Sproat relaunched his hockey career as a member of the Fresno Falcons, where PU alums Daryl Marcoux '07, Grant Goeckner-Zoeller '07, and Kyle Hagel '08 were all playing
Playing professional hockey means being on the road a great deal of the time, so Sproat made a commitment to become involved in the communities in which he was living. Together with many of his previous teammates, including NHL veterans and PU alums Jeff Halpern '99, George Parros '03, and Darroll Powe '07, Sproat began to seek out public service opportunities in his local community. When the Falcons folded halfway through the 2008-09 season, Sproat and his teammates were spread across the country, but their commitment to involvement in their local communities remained. In March 2009, Sproat along with 6 other PU alums came together to cofound Hockey Players for Kids (HP4K), a non-profit organization dedicated to helping professional hockey players positively impact the communities they play in by connecting players with kids in their communities.
Beginning with just 10 co-founders in five cities, HP4K now features 70 members in more than 25 cities worldwide. HP4K has had a wide-reaching impact, starting with "Stick to Reading," an incentive-based reading competition for elementary and middle school students in which the winners can play floor hockey with professional hockey players. Other initiatives include "Give Moore for the Holidays" and involvement with local afterschool programs, Ronald McDonald House Charities, and Boys and Girls Clubs of America. Many of the programs are initiated by the players themselves, which gives them the opportunity to take ownership for the meaningful work they are doing.
Sproat has served as HP4K's Executive Director while playing hockey for the Cincinnati Cyclones. He spends much of his time following, promoting, and encouraging HP4K activities, as well as initiating community service opportunities in Cincinnati. As a hockey player, PU graduate, and person committed to community involvement, Sproat serves as an example of a person who combined his passions into a public service initiative that is meaningful and far-reaching.
HP4K is currently looking for a new Executive Director. Click here for a link to the job description.

I have been wondering about this for some time now.
When I bought my car it came with some of the trunk liners missing (like the trunk lid liner, the rear seat lid (at least that's what I think)).
And I took out my side liners for visual inspection etc. and didn't put them back in yet (still have those though).
I'm a bit confused I guess... is the trunk stuff a part of the the "interior/comfort" stuff? And are they called liners or panels or what are they?!
I found a section saying I may modify the panels to fit a strut bar (for example).
In either case I must be missing something here to conclude this appropriately.
Furthermore this stuff weighs next to nothing (like less than the spare tire and jack we're allowed to remove from the trunk)...
Is that still ok or is it grounds for protest (I'm planning for the 2017 nationals)?
If it's a problem I'll have to find these pieces...
Being one of the very few JDM cars around (there was two of us this year?) I don't want to push any tiny reason for being bumped or disqualified, let alone ruin the SP JDM classing for anyone else.

Photoshop has the ability to manipulate photographs and make them nearly unrecognizable, but doing even the simplest things in Photoshop can be very difficult and time consuming. This article is an easy tutorial that will help you turn a picture into a puzzle.
First, duplicate the background layer. You can do this by simply right clicking on the background and selecting duplicate layer. By right clicking again, rename the layer "puzzle layer."
Next add a layer in between the two layers. You can right click and create a new layer, and then click and drag it in between the two layers, or you can select the create new layer button in the bottom right corner. Fill the new layer with black. Simply select the pain bucket tool from the tool palette on the left side and select black as the color swatch.
Now we begin creating the puzzle effect! Click on the layer that you renamed puzzle. Now we need to find the puzzle filter on the hard drive, it's easier than it sounds. With the correct layer selected, bring up the menu at the top of the screen. Go to Filter, and under filter Select Texture, under that select Texturizer. This brings up a new menu Under which you will need to click on load texture, it should be on the right side.
This is perhaps the hardest part, finding the texture on the hard drive. It should be located In C:Program filesAdobePhotoshop CS3. (You can just copy and paste that if you want) Once there, click on the presets folder. Inside the preset picture, find the textures folder. There should be about ten textures in that folder, locate the one named puzzle, then select the load button.
Ok almost done, now you have the option to make some minor adjustments. Scaling will change the size of the puzzle pieces, Relief will add sort of a depth to the pieces and make them stand out a bit more and light will choose a direction from which the light comes from. Play around with the settings a little until it looks right!
For those who are truly adventurous, you can try to use the lasso, or a quick selection tool from the tool palette and highlight some of the pieces. Once you have highlighted them, try removing them from the puzzle and skewing them a little. Ctrl+T will allow you to rotate them once you have them selected. Don't forget that you can use undo and redo buttons to fix your mistakes. Have Fun!

Towards the end of last month, Year 7 children at Pennthorpe School hosted an innovative and unique event at The Arts Centre in Cranleigh.
Under the guidance of their heads of drama and music, the children spent the Spring term working hard to produce a full-length radio play, which they wrote, performed, recorded and edited themselves.
The play even featured atmospheric music composed by the children and sound effects sourced by them.
Eagle Radio from Guildford were also involved in the project, giving children an opportunity to look around their studios and also assisting with recording at editing.
The evening at The Arts Centre saw the children confidently delivering presentations about their various roles within their production team, with these presentations being followed by the first official airing of the finished product.
The children's play took characters from existing fairy tales and nursery rhymes, and brought them together in a new narrative with a modern and amusing twist.
The Narrator, played by 12 year-old Fisher Costello-Rose, told listeners the tale of young Goldilox (yes, with an 'x') and The Big Bad Wolf, who join forces to form a terrifying crime partnership. Baby Bear, Jack & Jill and many others all suffer at the hands of the villains, as they embark upon their quest to rob a bank chain owned by the Three Little Pigs; 'Oinkëbank'. Thankfully though, Red Riding Hood's Granny (who happens to be a black-belt in Brazilian Ju-Jitsu!) saves the day with just seconds to spare!
Zoe Maddalena who played Goldilox and attends a theatre school at weekends with lots of experience acting on stage, said: "In our stage experience, we are used to wearing costumes and make-up - and we found that the lack of these in radio can make it harder to get into character. There were definitely lots of notable differences!"
Toby Mallender who played 'Jill' (of 'Jack & Jill' fame) talked about the development of his character and said:"I definitely found it hard to get into character in the radio play, especially as she is so different to me! Originally, Jill was meant to be a kind, sweet and old-fashioned person when we devised her - but through our improvisation activities, we found she began to evolve into the modern, brattish, thug-like girl that you can hear in the play."
Hollie Rogers, Pennthorpe's head of drama, said: "This project was designed specifically to provide children with an opportunity to learn that 'drama' is about so much more than just acting on a stage. They begin to understand that there are so many different roles that fall underneath that same umbrella; script-writing, sound production, directing – it all counts. Through the project, children who are not natural performers often discover that they have a real talent for technical theatre. Once they have learned the basic principles of sound editing, for example, they can continue to experiment with at home or at senior school if they so wish."
The Radio Play Project has now been running for two years and is something that Pennthorpe intends to continue with future Year 7 groups.
If you are interested in seeing more of Pennthorpe's performances, their Year 8 Leavers are staging a production of the RSC's Wendy & Peter Pan on July 4 and 5. This new production, critically acclaimed in Stratford earlier this year, features Peter, Wendy, Hook and Tinkerbell as you've never seen them before! You can reserve your tickets by calling the school office on 01403 822391.

Guy Maddin, The Saddest Music in the World, 2003 (Isabella Rossellini as Canadian beer tycoon)
ArtOutside the Art Galleries
At a time when it is hard to avoid movies or digital projections in art galleries, why not go back to origins? Musician/artist Brian Eno once prophesized that although it might seem that art has disappeared, we would find it again in an unlikely place. Could that be in movie theaters and thenon DVDs?
Not only is the maddeningly eccentric Guy Maddin incredibly visual, he is a movie auteur. I like putting the two terms together, for as an author (an artist), Maddin — like John Waters, the Baltimore filmmaker who has given us Pink Flamingos and Hairspray — is making movies rather than film or cinema. Even his most outrageous images are employed in the service of storytelling. In Maddin's case, however, you don't know if Isabella Rossellini's beer-filled glass legs (in the 2003 "big" budget The Saddest Music in the World) are an homage to surrealism, or making fun of it. I vote for making fun. But am I right?
If making fun is Maddin's main talent, why are we so often disturbed and/or moved by his fey, outré, over-the-top absurdities? The real-life Maddin has a weird neurological disorder that causes him to feel he is being poked by ghosts. There are ghosts in his movies, too. His older brother, who at age 16 committed suicide on the grave of his freshly buried sweetheart, is always in the background. But there are other ghosts too, and I do not mean only ghosts-of-movies-past.
As a way of dealing with tragedy, Maddin's movies are firmly planted in camp or, more properly, meta-camp; in his own archeology of silent film; in his childhood; or in the mores and local legends of Winnipeg, Canada, his flat and icy hometown. If you thought Baltimore was an unlikely place for filmmaking, just think of Winnipeg. I think I lectured there once, but the only thing I really remember is parking meters with electric outlets: you plug in your motor blanket to prevent your engine block from cracking in the cold. In Waiting for Twilight — a documentary extra that comes with Twilight of the Ice Nymphs (1997), Archangel (1990) and Heart of the World (2000), all on a recent DVD — a Maddin crony explains that Winnipeg is so cold you don't really want to go outside, so you turn inward.
The Silence of the Wolves
Maddin's "silent" films, like the brilliant, six-minute Heart of the World, the hour-long Cowards Bend the Knee (2003) or the poignant (and hilarious) musical The Saddest Music in the World (2003) — all my top picks — are fast, faster than the silent films so lovingly or scathingly parodied. Heart is fastest of all, since, to the stirring pulse of Georgi Sviridov's Time, Forward, it condenses all of Russian silent cinema (and German Expressionist cinema) into a few breathtaking minutes, thus deserving its reputation as the best of recent "experimental" films.
Here I have to describe the signature Maddin "look" of flickering imagery, iris shots, and fake disintegration of film stock. Not a fan of the silent period of movies, I confess that seeing one of Maddin's pseudo-silents made me want to look at them again — but when you do look at them, at the correct speed or even the speeded-up usual versions, they are SO SLOW. I rented an early Hitchcock silent called Downhill, which was sans the music track. Without a rolling piano or string quartet to guide one through the emotions, it was nearly impossible to "read." Maddin makes "silent" movies the way you would want them to be: with sound and sometimes even the spoken word, along with the impression you yourself are being fast-forwarded on your VCR or DVD. The convoluted plots may crawl along, but the images (and the over-the-top emotions) are on speed.
But silence isn't always golden.
In Careful (1992), which after two viewings has become another favorite, Maddin presents an imaginary mountain community where silence — as in early motion pictures — is the rule. Animals have their vocal cords cut, and even geese passing above might trigger a deadly avalanche. Cavorting is saved for special valleys, where the echoes cancel out the sounds they are echoing.
Cowards Bend the Knee, 2003 (Actors as wax replicas of Maroon hockey team)
Acting Is a Popular Disease
All of Maddin's movies, with the exception of Twilight,imitate silent movies, even if there's actual dialogue. Perhaps it would be better to say that he often points to early sound movies, or what they would have been like if silent-movie montage had been maintained. If there is dialogue, it is usually stilted and either postproduction or, if synchronized, sounds as if it's dubbed. The actors deliver their lines as if they are, as one says, phoning them in. An exception, along with the ever-game Rossellini as a Canadian beer baroness, is the ever-charming Shelley Duvall. Her role as the host of television's once-popular Faerie Tale Theater helps create the atmosphere of the lush and lugubrious Twilight.
Twilight, however, is not a full-color fable for the kiddies. In spite of the saving grace of John McCulloch's journey-music, it is even darker and certainly more perverse than any Cocteau tale. After the promising lines, "Aren't you tired of thinking like a prisoner? How about thinking like a criminal?" we have to wade through many dead scenes and arch poses until, more than three-quarters through, we get to see Duvall go totally bonkers and hammer a spike into the head of a crusty, impotent ostrich farmer. This is the high point.
After Twilight of the Ice Nymphs (not typical, but seemingly in perpetual replay on the Sundance TV channel), Maddin tried to make a big operetta film called The Dykemaster's Daughter. He couldn't raise the mere million he needed. I don't know why the Canadian government couldn't come up with the money; after all, it was to star British horror actor Christopher Lee and Leni Riefenstahl (notorious director of Triumph of the Will) in her acting comeback. She had started as an actress in silent, very-German alpine flicks. Dykemaster's probably fits into the select category of The Wildest, Most Unlikely Movies Never Made.
In fairness, most of the "acting" is just what Maddin wants. Like Hitchcock, he tells his actors as little as possible, so, he says, so they won't take the movie away from him. He also reveals that he coached the actor who had to pretend to eat his father's corpse — in his first movie, The Dead Father (1986) — to "eat yogurt by the light of a refrigerator as if he really disliked yogurt.")
Careful, 1990
More Movies, Music, Writing and Camp
I'll pass by, this time around, Archangel — about Canada's largely unknown intervention against the Bolshevek revolution — and Tales from the Gimli Hospital, 1988, (which approaches the forbidden subject of a devastating epidemic in the Canadian, largely Icelandic community of Gimli, north of Winnipeg.) Both have their charms.
The most recent movies (and therefore not yet available on DVD), Cowards and The Saddest Music, like all of Maddin's works, are long on plot and deliriously short on sense. So that I do not ruin your eventual delight or disgust, suffice it to say that Cowards, Maddin's most autobiographical effort, was initially meant as a gallery installation in the form of 12 peep-shows. It's about destiny, hockey, beauty parlors, incest, and the Hands of Orlac; The Saddest Music is only outwardly about a maniacal female owner of a Canadian beer company. She (played by Rossellini) has the brilliant idea that now that Prohibition has been abolished, she will encourage the drinking of beer by mounting an international radio contest to find the saddest music in the world. It is, by the way, hilarious that mariachi music from Mexico is one of the entries.
In my view, if movies be music, than Maddin wins any such contest for sadness. Beneath the parody and the mayhem, there's a lonely child trying to get out of a Canadian straight-jacket. What was it like to grow up in Winnipeg in an Icelandic family, father working for a famous hockey team, auntburning hair in her beauty shop downstairs? Did little Guy, as he claims, actually crawl up the beauty parlor hair-shoot to spy on the ladies? Was there really a blue hand under one of the sinks?
Maddin's writings (From the Atelier Tovar: Selected Writings, Coach House Books, 2003), are as pleasingly overwritten as his movies are overwrought. The journal entries, screen treatments, and reviews will let you in on lazy-boy Maddin's secrets — but no more than Cowards, whose main character is called Guy Maddin. Most will see an element of camp in Maddin's films. Yet in spite of a few male shower scenes and the hilarious short Sissy Boy Slap Party (1990), Maddin appears to be straight, has a grown daughter he dotes on, but, divorced, seems unlucky in love. So much for the still socially prevalent assumptions about ironclad links between sexuality and temperament. (And, judging by the way he dresses for the documentary Waiting for Twilight, he is not even a metrosexual.) But, as all of his movies prove, even a former stick boy for the Winnipeg Maroons hockey team can dish out emotions exaggerated beyond all cause. If this be camp, then it is camp about camp, meta-camp.
Cocteau once promised that making a film would be like writing. In Maddin's best efforts, 10 percent usually is writing, in the form of intertitles. Then too, the images have a certain written-ness about them. They stick in your mind like images from bad poems, too vivid for their own good. It is their vividness that is their meaning, not their referents.
These oddly moving movies are more Jacobean than Restoration. In Careful, the blond and goofy youth who kisses his sleeping mother's exposed breast, burns his mouth with a live coal and cuts off his fingers inremorse– before jumping off a cliff. Of course, like the whole movie, the kiss may have been a dream. The remaining brother, also incest-prone, has his brother's fingers sewn back on so that their truly loopy and self-centered mother won't know the fall was suicide. Tragedy is communicated by farce, or vice-versa.
Update: Films of Guy Maddin @ Berkeley Museum of Art to Oct. 31.

Having problems with your Sanyo Digital Cameras ?
My camera lens will not go back inside it is stuck,the camera will not work at all I tried to talk to someone at sanyo in april and did not get back ahold of me then I forgot about the camera now I would like to use it but can't only used it a couple of times before it quit on me
Answers :
Try this: Power the camera on then gently push on the lens while hitting the power button again so that it will try to retract the lens. but be gentle as you could damage the camera worse.
\015\012if your interested in having it fixed for around 120 or more than dont try anything and just take it to a repair company.
\015\012if that doesnt reset the camera then you can try taking the batteries out for a couple day and then put some lithium batteries in it if it takes aa's that is. They have a little higher voltage than some batteries and while sometimes give it a little more push to get things going. Leaving the batteries out would let the camera forget its memory. If you had the camera stored without batteries then don't worry about trying to reset it as that would have already happened.
\015\012Let me know how that works or if you need anymore help,

I bought this camera off of an realestate agent, she said it wasnt very old and that it worked great, it didnt have a memory card in it she said i would haft to get one. I have gotten 3 differnt ones and they all say it cant be read. I talked to a walmart associate and she thought I needed a 1 gb memory card for that camera so I got one off line and it still does the same thing. I put the same memory card in another camera and it works just fine. I have this nice camera and I cant even use it

According to the museum's website, "Kupka was an eccentric, sensual man with a lifelong fascination for spiritualism and the occult." In short, he was as flaky as Yeats, but he knew how to drench a canvas in color. "It is the color of early bruises," writes Theroux, "unpopular cats, potato wart, old paper, chloroflavedo in plants, forbidding skies, dead leaves, xanthoderma, purulent conjunctivitis, dental plaque, gimp lace, foul curtains, infection and pus ('yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye,' sings John Lennon in 'I Am the Walrus'), speed bumps, callused feet, and ugly deposits of nicotine on fingers and teeth."
Yellow is saffron, lemons, egg yolks, bananas, butter, poplars in autumn, Stevie Smith's Novel on Yellow Paper, squares in a Mondrian grid, goldfinches, sulfur, the flag of Vatican City, a color much loved by Paul Klee, and the international maritime signal flag for the letter "Q." I'm with G.K. Chesterton, whose favorite flower, and mine, is the dandelion. He writes in his Autobiography:
"… what I said about the dandelion is exactly what I should say about the sunflower or the sun, or the glory which (as the poet said) is brighter than the sun. The only way to enjoy even a weed is to feel unworthy even of a weed."

Could the Fed's Housing Agency Default?

Free food, proper wine, new friends.
The following day we checked into the QT Hotel and ohmygoodness was that a lapse of luxury! It was very retro, hip, modern, clean, funky. The views were exactly what you would expect from Surfers Paradise, surveying the pool below and overlooking the ocean in front.
|view looking out
|view looking in.
|They even allowed you to make your own fresh lemonade!
There were price lists amongst the room selling everything that was in the room, from the mini bar to the flip flops to the phone. Anything could be bought. Mic "liked" the hotel on Facebook and wrote, "how much does the air cost in the room, I don't see it on the shop!" They actually responded and said, "we hope you are joking" and she responded that we were having such a good time that we just wanted to bring home the high the hotel was giving us...too funny. It was really hard to leave the room, the full length mirror, the great big comfy bed, the hair dryer, all these things that just seemed so luxurious. And to say goodbye to Mic again. I'm really glad that Mic came up to Surfers Paradise and I'm really glad that I couch surfed with Paul. They both really made me change my mind on the place and will look back on it with fondness rather than just a place I visited.

Two Sides of a Painting- Victorine Meurent
It is seldom that one is lucky enough to be art and an artist but Victorine Meurent had such luck. Born in 1844, she became a popular model at a young age. Even though she's better known to be Eduaord Manet's muse, Meurent was a painter herself as well. Her paintings were of class too, and were regularly exhibited at the prestigious Paris Gallery.
Meurent was a colourful character. At the age of sixteen she was modelling for artists and was also learning arts at a women's institute. Her artistic relationship with Manet started in 1864 when he saw he saw her in the street carrying her guitar. Meurent was very petite which led to her nickname being: The Shrimp.
Manet's first painting of Meurent was The Street Singer. One of the main reasons behind Manet's attraction to Meurent was that she wasn't the typical beauty of that era. In The Street Singer we see Meurent with a guitar tucked under her shoulder, apparently in a rush. The hem of her skirt is damaged and showing which gives away the fact that she isn't financially well off. The way she's cramming cherries into her mouth is also evidence of her distance from the refined women of Paris. The way she looks in a hurry also makes it seems like maybe she has another performance lined up and cannot spare the time to have a proper meal. Unlike the popular paintings of that time, The Street Singer was very different. It did not portray biblical women or extracts from mythology, but a real life woman with real dynamics of life.
Meurent also became a part of rather controversial paintings by Manet. In Le Déjeuner Sur l'Herbe she could be seen naked at what seemed like a picnic with two fully clothed gentlemen sitting beside her in the woods. There was a lot of public outcry on this revealing painting. But Manet and Meurent were far from done. The next painting, Olympia, depicted Meurent as a Lady of the Night who just had intercourse with a client and with a professional nonchalance, was waiting for the other client. Whereas the first painting had no sexual hints, Olympia was obviously sexual.
Victorine Meurent art was impressive too. Although most of her art was lost through the years, Palm Sunday remains a highly acclaimed piece. Palm Sunday is a profile of a young girl with a small green bunch in her hand. The young girl in the picture seems to be lost in her thoughts, rather unbothered with the bunch she's holding.
I think Victorine Meurent was a one of a kind artist. She knew art from the masterpiece's perspective as well as the artist. It was through the honesty and bravery of her character that Manet was able to break the monotony of religious and mythological art. In a time when women who diverted from the norm at all were looked at with scorn, Meurent took a courageous step by posing nude and portraying to the public what real life is. I really like her as a model and as an artist because there is a truth about her, which gives any painting she's associated with a raw and definite power.

The focus on the government's nuclear energy proposals in its Review of Energy Supply leaves us in danger of neglecting the key issue of achieving radical reductions in energy consumption. The Review is long on intentions, but eight years after signing Kyoto we should be much further ahead. In 2005 a copper-bottomed Code for Sustainable Buildings should have been published, but instead we had an unsatisfactory draft of a Code for Sustainable Homes, now promised for later this year. By April 2006 all public buildings should have been required to display annual energy use figures, both targeted and actual - but this did not happen because of lack of resources. Meanwhile a bewildering and sometimes conicting plethora of energy assessment methods proliferate.
Unless the many ideas in the Review, and there are some good ones, produce actionable results within the next few months, this will be remembered as another missed opportunity to provide the leadership needed to unite industries, sectors and the public in tackling climate change.
Buildings and their use account for half of our total energy use, but 30 per cent of total energy use is taken up just by space heating and hot water. The construction industry, architects and engineers cannot wait for government and must act now.
Professional institutes also have an obligation to think about the issues globally. The concept of 'Contraction and Convergence' (C&C) recognises that action on climate change must take into account the inevitability of high growth in energy use by expanding economies such as China and India, and appears to be the only credible principle available for achieving practical solutions to climate change. The RIBA is now studying C&C as potentially the best overarching policy to formulate clear and effective briefing for architects and all others involved in design.

Parents With Children Out Of Control And The Diagnosis Is ADD, ADHD, Or Is It
A Trip to The Doctor and a New Outlook
After a trip to the doctor I started to understand why there is such an astronomical amount of children in the US being diagnosed or misdiagnosed ADD, and ADHD. I use to blame it mostly on the doctors now I can see their side a little better.
You see I used to blame the doctors, and some of the parents for choosing the easy way out just giving children a label, loading them up on medications, and moving on to the next one Although I still believe that is the case more often than not, I have to admit after thinking about what she said I had to take a closer look
My doctor explained to me, (don't ask me how we got on the subject, oh yeah I brought it up) that when a parent comes in and explains the symptoms a child is having (which according to the parent) is out of control, could possibly be harmful, along with all the other symptoms unfortunately doctors really don't have a choice.
Understanding if the family left the office and something happened to where the child injured themselves or someone else, having been seen by a doctor who did nothing, they are often setting themselves up to be sued. That being said if they don't diagnose them and give them treatment/medication what's the alternative? Yes, they should send them to a specialist in the mental health field or someone who specializes in ADD, and ADHD, but sometimes insurance or finances will not allow that, so their stuck between a rock and a hard place.
So What Can Be Done?
Ok so now I get it, but now knowing what the problem is what can be done about it? Well that seems to fall on the parents, the schools, friends, pretty much everybody. Why do I say that? Because if we don't start doing something soon this country is going to be overrun with nothing but people who can't handle anything without popping a pill, and if it a comes to a point where they can't get that pill guess where there going to find it? On every drug dealers street corner or home, either that or out of a bottle Either way it's a dead end (no punt intended)
Right now in the US alone there are over 17,000,000 yes that's not a typo it's millions of children are diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. That does not include the amount of people taking Valium, Xanax, Sobril to calm themselves down, or all the antidepressants Paxil, Zoloft, etc to subdue their emotions or lets just say mind altering medications.
I think what really tops it off though is I went to the doctor mainly because of these excruciating headaches I get which are caused by a large growth in my jaw diagnosed august of last year. In may of this year I went to the hospital (Winter Haven Hospital/ Winter Haven Fl) through the e.r. (had passed out twice) telling them about the growth and the doctors who diagnosed it only to spend 8 days there 7 or more scans, xrays, blood work, specialists, etc, for them to tell me there was no growth Doctor after doctor, nope no growth, nada, but I saw it in the x-rays, I thought it was a miracle. I was finally discharged with over 15 different medications to take, (now I had bronchitis) to find out 2 months later the growth was there the whole time. They just missed it. And yes it's still there, the size of an egg is what the oral surgeon tells me just eating away at the bone in my jaw.
Sorry for ranting I just wanted you to know why I get a little aggravated when I talk about it, as I did when I was in the doctors office. So what was the next question out of the doctor, "Do you want something to calm you down or an anti depressant?" AAAAAHHHHHH (I didn't do that in the office) I took the prescription for the antidepressant which I don't take just so she could feel at ease. I didn't want to kill myself I was just aggravated.
But you see that's the thing these days people think that you are out of control or ADD or whatever other label they want to put on you just for being passionate about something or aggravated, expressing yourself.
I, as do we all have a right to express emotions, and be passionate about things. To love something so much it's all you think about, (well not all but a lot). Since when did that become an illness? Expressing yourself and your opinions about something builds character. It's why we have debate teams in school, political debates, etc.
Is that what the US is coming to is a country where emotions are a thing of the past? Well I'll probably be gone by then considering my age which is a good thing since they would have to hog tie me to take a pill to stop.
So parents, teachers, etc. please let these children express themselves. They have so much to give and just want to get it out. Start a drama class after school take them to a martial arts class, play a game of kickball, have them write a story about anything that will let them be expressive.
What A Great Book
Dr. Phil gives advice coinciding with Dr Lawlis who wrote an incredible book The ADD Answer which I highly recommend before the trip to the doctor. He expresses concern for the amount of children on medication right now and the consequences it will bring later, how to get a proper diagnosis, how not all ADD has to be treated with medication, (Hallelujah), and the resources you need to help you get through this. I've listed the book below
I wish you the best and if you would like more information or some ideas on how to help to maybe get some respect and control back in your lifeplease click here.
Make it an incredible day! You deserve it.
There It Is The First One On Sale and Everything
Sorry about the tumor hope you find some help. Remember all hospitals and clinics have community care that may help you some. You have to ask them for it, they won't tell you about it.
To many meds are given out for nerves. We have had some emergency medical sickness through the years. I'm strong but I cry easy. I have never seen so many doctors and nurses get their panties in a wad if you shed a tear. Right away they want to give you meds.
I think most kids don't have ADD or whatever. Their just brats and never told NO. Some need the meds but I don't think as many as you see now days.
Good Hub Voted up.
What you wrote is so true. The same can be said about all of the tests, xrays, etc. that are done that might not be necessary in all cases. It is just that IF something is missed, the all to happy to sue public forces doctors to practice defensive medicine. Too bad it has come to this.
So what about your tumor in your jaw? Was it removed and are you OK now? I truly hope so and that there was no residual damage to nerves in your face.
Voted up and useful. Happy Easter tomorrow.
Enjoyed the read. I feel doctor's overmedicate too many times, more than any of us can even imagine. When I was growing up, it was very rare to have someone taking medication for ADD or ADHD. It is an indicator, as you pointed out, how times have changed over the years. Everyone is sue happy. I look forward to reading more of your hubs.

Most camera reviews and benchmarks on the Web carry out data analytics in different ways to provide rationale simply on the ability of one camera sensor over the other. While their effort is appreciated but there is still a gap in the current evaluations that should be filled. Camera and similar imaging devices are complicated systems which their performance depend on many intrinsic and extrinsic factors. At this stage this short article focuses on the sensor part which can be metaphorically expressed as the retina which wouldn't produce somewhat we called "image" without a lens. While lenses are interchangeable (on most cameras) sensors up to now cannot be interchanged on conventional cameras; therefore focusing on this part of the camera anatomy is proper and sensible. There are certainly other built-in components that are involved in different ways on the chain of producing the image however they are all dependant on the signal quality coming from the sensor which will be elaborated further by multivariate statistical analysis.
Current sensor comparisons and benchmarks are mostly based on scatter plots and one to one relationships, e.g. comparing sensors characteristics by isolating one or two sensor variable(s) and regressing X vs Y (bi-variate); for example dynamic range vs EV or sometimes putting images from different cameras side by side and trusting the human eye to judge between them. These could hinder explaining correlation in complex systems and large data matrices and are likely to miss a great deal of hidden variability in the data that cannot be explained with this approach. The inability is due to the complexity of the multiple factors that may co-vary or not, and are involved at the same time when a sensor functions. As such, conclusions based on regression plots will likely to be inaccurate in terms of interpretation, where a multivariate approach can help to reveal the latent data structure, the association and the interplay between different factors all at the same time.
Material and methods
In this article the actual dataset has been scaled for the purpose of this statistical analysis and the corresponding data presentation. They were initially extracted from Photonstophotos, upon my request with the permission of it's author, Mr. William J. Claff ; they are raw sensor data from measured Heatmap attributes. I have added some descriptive parameters (production year, sensor area etc.) to the dataset before the analysis to help for better clarification and visualization of the sensor data.
Statistical analysis of the measured sensor raw data (Table 1) were performed using a multivariate data analysis approach called Principal Components Analysis (PCA). PCA is a pattern recognition and exploratory data analysis method which is used to reduce data dimensionality and to investigate possible latent structure on the data. Prior to performing PCA, data were transformed to the mean divided by standard deviation (x̅/ σ), mean centered and cross validated using leave one out (LOO) method.
Three camera brands of Canon, Nikon and Sony that are highly debated in professional photography world especially for their image quality and their sensor similarities are selected. The lists of cameras are given in Table 2.
Results and discussion
Using the available dataset from 9 sensor variables RAW values acquired at their base ISO (Table 1) with PCA enabled separation between CCD, CMOS and BI-CMOS sensors groups. The PCA on the sensor data is presented in Figure 1a. The first two PCs which represent the score of each camera in the plot were able to explain a cumulative of 70% of variability of sensor data among all camera models which shows a large portion of the information in the data, so the relationships can be interpreted with a high degree of certainty.
The first two PC axes (PC-1 and PC-2) are divided into negative and positive areas which also represent the sample score correlation or anti correlation. For example there is very high correlation between Nikon D500 and Nikon D7500 sensor characteristics on positive PC-1 area. A distinct clustering between sensor form factors were made possible using the 9 sensor attributes (Table 1).
The correlation and significance of the mentioned nine variables (Table 1) and their influence on the PC data structure (Figure 1a) were examined with a variable loadings plot and are presented in Figure 2 which all loading vectors run between -1 and +1. The correlation loading plot represents the leverage and influence of each sensor parameter on clustering of sensor data. Overlaying this plot on Figures 1 will explain by which parameters or features each camera or a cluster of cameras are best explained with or why they are clustered together. This becomes clearer on Figure 3 where a bi-plot presents both loadings and scores plot at the same time. Also the same principle for negative and positive PC area applies to the loading plot. As an example the proximity of loading similarity of Low Light EV (LLEV) and PDR max show that a high degree of correlation exists between theses parameters in other words these two features vary together. This also demonstrates the unique characteristic of the clustered high end full frame cameras in this PC 1 region where PDR and LLEV are located. The flagship cameras of this region are Nikon D5, SONY ILCE-9 and SONY ILCE-7RM3 with Canon 1DX Mark II as runner up. PRNU also is in inverse correlation with Pitch, FWC and Sensor size; which indicates that larger PRNU values are characteristic of a sensor with smaller FWC, Pitch and sensor size (Figure 1a and 5) . Also Read Noise variations seem to be independent of Pitch by reading the PC-2 area; it also shows a positive correlation with DSNU.
Figures 1 and 5 clearly show that the more the sensors' score shifts towards left, the less becomes their quality in their image output. A trend can also be seen between PC-2 negative and positive area where Read Noise is anti correlated to QE. The two extremes of QE sensor characteristic are Nikon D2X, Nikon D70, Canon EOS 300D vs Nikon D500, Nikon D7500, Canon Power Shot G7X and Sony DSC-RX100 M5. Although the two latter cameras have high scores on QE but they are not among the best high end cameras. This is also shown on the loading plot data where QE is not correlated to PDRmax, LLEV and Pitch; in other words a sensor with a greater QE score seems to not indicate that it also has an improved dynamic range and good low light characteristics or larger sensor.
It might be proper to say that the next Nikon's APS-C sensor would appear somewhere between Nikon D7500 and Sony ILCE-7RM2 where there is a gap with no competitor camera within this population (apart from technological challenges on developing the new sensor). With the available variables analysed in this article the new D7500 sensor needs a tweak on LLEV, PDRmax, FWC and not on the QE (Figure 4).
Figures 5 and 6 present a different view on the data on their sensor form factor and their bit depth. It is clear that CCD sensors are among the worst on Read Noise and PRNU relative to CMOS and BI-CMOS sensors. Example sensors of this range are Nikon D70 and Canon Power Shot G11 and G12.
Hierarchical cluster analysis is an alternative approach that is more user friendly for those audiences who don't want to look into much technical info and data relationship but would want to compare cameras side by side in one frame. It provides a visualization of the proximity of camera sensors to each other. The algorithm uses an agglomerative clustering approach which is analogous to a diagram of the relationship between leaves, tree branches and trunk and it is based on the previous components used for the PCA plot.
Figure 7 shows the camera similarities by their relative distance; the less distant their branches are to each other (smaller forks!) the more similar are their sensor profile. This becomes especially helpful when one would want to compare a camera over another or in relation to bunch of other cameras. The information that this diagram provides can save time on going through different reviews and reading long pages that usually do a one on one comparison or some scattered incomprehensive multiple comparisons.
This article demonstrates the ability of multivariate classification for the identification of the latent sensor classes which can also be expanded to identify new sensors' attributes in relation to the existing sensors by using supervised methods. This classification might also be useful for trend analytics on development of new image sensor characteristics and market trend analysis, for example based on the dataset and sensor variables tested in this work; it appears that the sensor manufacture trend is more towards improving PDR (Figure – 8). One reason (apart from resolving more shadow detail) might be to produce cameras that are more capable of shooting at difficult illumination conditions without having to couple them with expensive fast lenses.
Disregarding other camera components, this approach for sensor classification can also be a help for individuals or companies to decide which camera brand/sensor type to buy for their special purpose or whether the extra money makes the technical difference. It may also be helpful to employ similar RAW image post-processing strategies in image processing softwares for similar cameras.
It is worth to point out that more measurements from other sensor variables would probably help in better explaining the source of variability of each sensor; which in this study the model and its' precision relied on available number of measurements carried out by Photonstophotos. Furthermore the accuracy of the measurements definitely influences the quality of the output data and the subsequent interpretation; in this instance the available Heatmap data derived from Photonstophotos helped to classify camera sensors and determine the impact of each individual sensor parameters on this classification with good confidence.
I would like to thank Mr. William J. Claff for his permission on using his Heatmaps and other data for this work.
Future works
I endeavour to expand this preliminary work in the near future on other camera sensors to investigate if the same loading variability (fingerprint) in the data structure holds. An extension of this research could also be to apply this methodology to cover and test more sensor data from other companies and databases and also to involve further statistical methods both for image sensor classification and predictive tests.

California Asian and Pacific Islander Legislative Caucus Selects Assemblymember Rob Bonta to Lead
The Asian and Pacific Islander Legislative Caucus announced its selection of Assemblymember Rob Bonta (D-Oakland) to lead the Caucus, effective today. In 2012, history was made when Bonta became the first and only Filipino American ever elected to the California State Legislature in the state's 165-year history. His selection as API Caucus Chair is another historic first.
Bonta issued the following statement today, which marks the first day of his chairmanship:
"Thank you to my good friend and outgoing Chair, Assemblymember Das Williams, whose strong and effective leadership over the past two years sharpened the Caucus' vision, reinvigorated our work, and set all of us on a strong path toward improving the lives of Asian Pacific Islanders throughout California.
"I am humbled and honored to serve with such an amazing group of talented and dedicated legislators in the API Caucus. I look forward to working together to further empower and uplift the API community in California and beyond," Bonta concluded.
Assemblymember Bonta represents the 18th Assembly District, which includes the cities of Oakland, Alameda, and San Leandro. Bonta Chairs the Assembly Public Employees, Retirement, and Social Security Committee and the Select Committee on the Status of Boys and Men of Color in California.

Too Busy
I'm too busy to fix my blog. I have a really good excuse though.
My mom is here and we've been too busy shopping and eating and playing tourist to spend much time contemplating blog themes.
We've hung pictures, rearranged furniture, bought bookcases, found COSTCO, gotten lost, tried to go on a submarine (no-go as there wasn't enough visibility underwater), made our own volcano:
…bought Aloha wear, went to the Windward side of the island:
… and persevered until we found Ladybug Plants in Waimanalo — possibly the best plant nursery ever! The plants are plentiful, the staff unbelievably friendly and helpful, and the prices are great.
And we went to Dave's and ate Mochi ice cream just because:
I was tempted to try the Taro ice cream because it was purple, and maybe pair it with the greenest Green Tea ice cream I've ever seen, but the idea of pasty Taro wasn't enticing me. I'm not sure I'd go for Mochi ice cream again though. The ice cream was good, but the mochi around it was kinda like bland fondant and I just didn't find the combo exciting. I much preferred the gooey/crispy pairing of last weekend's poi mochi. Now I'd like to try some real Japanese mochi just to round out my mochi experience. Dave's had all manner of Bubble Drinks though, so obviously I've been hiding under a rock all these years and am the last one to discover these!

Hurricane Harvey runoff churns up a few surprises in coastal waters
Tadpoles and sunfish, alligators and alligator gar, largemouth bass, channel and blue catfish, gizzard shad and smallmouth buffalo are aquatic creatures Texas freshwater fisheries biologists pretty much expect to encounter in the course of their work.
They are not what biologists and technicians monitoring Texas' coastal fisheries reckon to come upon as they monitor the state's marine ecosystems.
"It's not very often that we see more than a handful of freshwater species," said Carey Gelpi, Sabine Lake ecosystem leader for Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's coastal fisheries division."But when your bay turns into what's essentially a freshwater lake for several weeks, you can expect some surprises. We've had our share, for sure."
So have coastal fisheries staffs in the Galveston and Matagorda bay systems, the other Texas marine ecosystems most directly and heavily impacted by the injection of unprecedented amounts of freshwater runoff associated with Hurricane Harvey's record-setting flooding.
Harvey's flooding rains hit the final week of August and first week of September, with runoff swamping the bays just as TPWD coastal fisheries staff were preparing to begin their fall gill net surveys of the bays.
Twice a year, in early summer and early autumn for almost four decades, TPWD coastal fisheries crews conduct research involving setting 600-foot gill nets at random locations (picked by computer) throughout each bay system. The effort is spread over a 10-week period with a total of 45 net sets made. The nets are set perpendicular to the shoreline at dusk and retrieved the next morning. All aquatic organisms captured by the nets are removed, each creature's species and length recorded, with some of the catch kept for further research. Crews also record environmental data such as water temperature and salinity.
The gill net sampling is designed as part of the agency's monitoring of the relative abundance, size distribution and other demographics of the bay's fisheries, with special focus on species such as speckled trout, redfish, drum, flounder and others that carry huge economic and recreational value. The data collected give fisheries scientists and managers insights into long-term trends in the fisheries.
The fall gill net sampling season begins in mid-September. This year, that timing hit as bays on the upper half of the Texas coast were swamped with runoff from Harvey's record-setting rains, and as TPWD coastal fisheries staff were dealing with the damage the storm did to their personal property and the boats, buildings, equipment and other gear.
"Every coastal field station except the one in the lower Laguna Madre suffered at least some damage," said Mark Fisher, Rockport-based science director for TPWD's coastal fisheries division. "Several staff were personally affected. We had co-workers who lost their homes. But, to their credit, the staff was able to start the gill net season on time."
What those crews encountered was quite different from what they usually see.
"For the first couple of weeks after the storm, there were no usable boat ramps on Sabine Lake," Gelpi said. "They were under water. Freshwater."
That surge of runoff flushed freshwater species into what normally are saltwater environments, or allowed freshwater species to range into areas where they normally could not survive.
That freshwater inundation was biblical, with areas of bays that in a normal September and October would hold salinity levels of 15-20 part-per-thousand dropping to 0 ppt. The flood of freshwater went far beyond the bay systems, with the plume of "sweet" water pushing miles into the Gulf of Mexico. TPWD teams conducting their regular monthly trawl samplings in Texas waters of the open Gulf found salinity levels as far as 9 nautical miles offshore to be half or less than the normal 35-40 ppt.
"We saw salinities in the low 20's in the Gulf offshore of Galveston during September, and in the low 20's and upper teens off of Sabine Pass," Fisher said. But that doesn't tell the whole story, he said. Those salinity measurements were taken just off bottom, where the most saline water would be found - freshwater is much less dense than saltwater and rides in a layer over the heavier, saltier water. Surface water as far as 10 miles off the coast was almost wholly fresh.
"That's just unheard of."
Coastal fisheries crews working the gill net sampling saw the effects of the freshwater slug.
"We actually were catching tadpoles in some of our bag seines," Gelpi said of Sabine Lake samplings. Gill nets produced freshwater largemouth bass, buffalo, channel and blue catfish and sunfish along with saltwater redfish.
Lots of alligator gar
The gill nets in Sabine Lake also have caught alligator gar, Gelpi said. A lot of alligator gar.
Sabine Lake crews were not the only ones.
"We're seeing alligator gar in almost every net," Glen Sutton, Galveston Bay ecosystem leader, said of fall gill net sets in the state's largest bay system. "Just tremendous numbers of them - more than we've ever seen. We've even caught alligator gar in West (Galveston) Bay, where we've never caught them before."
It's been the same in the Matagorda Bay system.
"So many alligator gar!" said Leslie Hartman, Matagorda Bay ecosystem leader. "We've had some nets with dozens in them."
Alligator gar are a freshwater species found in the river feeding the bays. The primitive fish, which can grown to more than 300 pounds, can easily tolerate modest salinity levels and are commonly found in brackish areas of bays. But not in anything near the numbers or in the areas seen this autumn.
"It's pretty certain that all that freshwater pushed those gar into the bays," Sutton said.
It pushed other freshwater-loving creatures into the bays, too.
"We've been seeing a lot of gizzard shad, which are a freshwater species," Sutton said.
Then there have been the alligators.
"We've had a couple of instances where alligators have ended up in our gill nets," Sutton said.
The most "interesting" such encounter was when a crew checking a gill net in the Drum Bay area were retrieving a net that had fewer fish in it than the crew expected. They discovered why when they came upon an 11-foot gator entangled in the net. The "very much alive and not happy" gator had been using the gill net as a buffet, snacking on trapped fish.
The gator was able to disengage itself from the net, much to the relief of the reptile and the TPWD crew.
Snook sightings up
There have been other surprises - ones not easily directly attributable to the freshwater swamping.
Snook, a highly sought-after tropical marine sport fish native to much of the Texas coast but for decades relegated almost solely to the lower coast, have shown up in sampling nets in all three bay systems.
A juvenile snook captured in a TPWD gill net set in the upper reaches of Sabine Lake during this sampling effort is the first snook taken in the history of such samplings in the border-straddling bay system, Gelpi said. Two snook, both in the 20-22-inch range, have been taken over past weeks in the Galveston Bay system, Sutton said. One was taken in Drum bay, the other in Bastrop Bay.
Matagorda Bay has seen a surge in snook encounters during this gill net sampling season, Hartman said.
"We usually see one or two or so snook over a whole gill net season," she said. "This year has been a real surprise. We've had several snook. We had six in one net in East Matagorda Bay. Just this week, we had four more."
Perhaps temperature-sensitive snook, like gray snapper, are extending their range as Texas winters continue their long warmer-than-normal string.
Anecdotally, the bay system biologists said, the bays' redfish and speckled trout appear to be doing pretty well, considering the freshwater drenching. Redfish numbers in all bays appear to be continuing strong. Reds can tolerate lower salinity levels than many other bay species. Speckled trout abundance has been spotty, but improving as salinity levels in the bays moderate. Through six weeks of the fall gill net survey, Sabine Lake catches of trout appear down a bit, Gelpi said.
Trout catches in the Matagorda complex are "decent," Hartman said, with some very large trout showing up especially in East Matagorda Bay.
In Galveston Bay, where salinities are climbing but generally still lagging behind what are considered "normal" levels for October, speckled trout catches in this fall's gill net survey are actually a bit ahead of what they were this time a year ago, Sutton said. But that may be because the fish are concentrated in areas holding favorable salinities, he added.

Atlas of Human Genetic History Shows Long Reach of Mongol Empire
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Scientists have mapped the genetic legacy of events of the past 4,000 years that have shaped populations, such as Genghis Khan's expansion of the Mongol Empire, creating an atlas that extends our understanding of human health and history.
The atlas uses genetic data on 95 different populations to confirm known historical interactions between peoples and shows the impact of European colonialism, the Arab slave trade, the Mongol Empire, and trade near the Silk Road. The study, led by scientists at University College London and Oxford University, is published today in the journal Science.
When comparing a sample of DNA from one of the groups against other populations' DNA, we matching sequences indicate shared ancestry. The longer the uninterrupted matched DNA sequence, the more recent the occurrence of intermingling, said Garrett Hellenthal, lead author and research fellow at the UCL Genetics Institute. Shorter matches indicate that the mixing occurred in earlier periods, allowing the team to estimate when the interaction occurred, he said.
"It's surprising that some of these signals are so clear, and that they happen in so many groups," Hellenthal said in a phone interview. "Some 80 percent or more of our sample can be looked at as products of mixtures between two or more genetically distinguishable groups."
For example, historical records suggesting that the Hazara people of Pakistan are partially descended from Mongol warriors were corroborated by evidence from the study showing that DNA entered the population during the period of the Mongol empire.
Bypassed Invasion
Conversely, analysis of the DNA of the Kalash people, also in Pakistan, show no evidence of mixing with the Mongols, lending support to the understanding that the region was bypassed by the invaders because of its isolated, mountainous geography, Hellenthal said.
Some members of the Kalash community believe they're instead descended from Alexander the Great's army, and the analysis didn't contradict this assertion, given DNA matches with groups in Northern and Eastern Europe, he said.
While providing fresh insight into historical events, the new research may also have implications for understanding how DNA affects health and disease in different populations. Some populations are more at risk of certain diseases than others, and drug efficacy can also vary.
"Understanding well the genetic similarities and differences between human populations is a key for public health," said Simon Myers, a lecturer in bioinformatics at Oxford University and senior author of the study.
Future research may involve more detailed sequencing to spot rare genetic mutations linked with certain populations and diseases, Myers said.

a moonchild in springtime
And then I put the pencil down. I did not find any fulfillment in drawing or writing the peace of the moment. It was nicest just to be there. Listening to the breeze, watching swans amble across the grass. And I knew even as I closed my eyes so that sunlight could swim in the intimate space behind my eyes, that I'd have enjoyed it even better at night, under a pale, cock-eyed moon, in the taut half-hour before a storm.
What I love in other people does not have to be a part of me.

And I tried to "copy" them. Yours, and others... But it didn't work.
