Julia46 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 25 designs submitted by 7 freelance designers.
Big Easy
The Big Easy is a new line of patent pending Garden Torches which feature a *Big Flame & is *Easy To Fill. It also features *No touch technology - where the lid twists open and closed, making it easy and cleaner to fil. We plan to sell these torches to all the major retailers in the US.
This logo will be applied to the attached packaging - we like showing the large flame image on the front of the package, but we need a more exciting logo for BIG EASY. Next to BIG EASY, the main call outs should be there: Garden Torch , Big Flame, Easy to Fill
These torches will be sold to large retailers. The BIG EASY should have a TM symbol. This product is a step up from your basic garden torch since it provides a much larger flame and has a patented pending technology making it easier and cleaner to fill. The attached file also contains information about our competitor's logo.

DeWitt Deluxe Pond Netting – 30% 20ft x 100ft
This UV-treated Polyethylene pond netting prevents leaves and other debris from accumulating in pond environments. Using nets in and around your pond can also protect fish and other pond life from predators such as birds.
DeWitt Deluxe Pond Netting – 30% 20' x 100'
- Made from high quality UV treated polyethylene
- 30% light blockage helps to keep ponds cool
- Makes pond cleanup easy
- Protects fish and keeps children and animals out
- Easy Installation
- Mesh provides superior protection from predators and debris
- Dark color blends in with pond surface
Pond netting prevents leaves and other debris from accumulating in pond environments while allowing the transference of sunlight, air and moisture. Reducing the amount of organic debris in your pond can help prevent the growth of algae.
Using nets in and around your pond can also protect fish and other pond life from predators especially herons and other birds.
Netting can be a permanent fixture in water gardens, remaining above the water year round. UV- treated, polyethylene strands make up this Deluxe netting with 1/4 inch hole openings. It is easy to use and install. Its dark color allows it to blend in against liners, and comes in a range of sizes to meet your pond's needs.
Simply lay the netting across the surface of the pond, secure by staking the perimeter every few feet. If the netting sags into the water, inexpensive PVC pipe frames can be used for support. Attach pond netting with ties. The netting should ideally be supported above the water level so that as little as possible is in contact with the water surface. This reduces any risk of fish entanglement, and slows leaf decay.
Periodically, leaves should be removed from the netting. If frames are used, turn them over onto the lawn and remove leaves with a rake or drag away. If using stakes, remove them and fold netting in half. Either flip the leaves out drag it away. We recommend that larger sections of netting be handled by two or more people so as to minimize spillage.

There was an AP Report today on a major initiative to reduce the time from the moment a patient hits the door with a heart attack, more precisely known as an acute coronary thrombosis, to the inflation of a balloon in the blocked coronary artery which restores blood flow to the affected heart muscle.
The full text of the report can be found here.
I do know that we are already doing the most important things listed as recommendations:
- We call in the cath lab based on a reliable EMS report of a STEMI
- We call in the cath lab based on the ER doc's interpretation of the EKG
- The call-in is a single phone call
The results? Based on the current data, our facility, in 2006, has a median door-to-dilation time of 69 minutes, with the national median being 90 minutes, and the 90th percentile being about 75 minutes. Our total number of cases is about 140 for the year, which I perceive as being reasonably high, and certainly statistically significant.
I can't take too much credit on this one. We have great leadership, great administration, and great cardiologists. They have identified this as a major goal for the hospital, and put systems in place to generate this type of success. It is satisfying to see that it can be done, and that it makes a difference.
(Side note: I have been at this facility for six years and have never once given thrombolytics. Amazing.)

For all those who work with WampServer on Windows,
I propose you a formatting(layout) of date as " Friday, January 1st, 2016 " instead of " Friday, January 01st, 2016 " (note the zero in front of 1) which works at the same time on Windows / WampServer and on (on-line) Linux / waiter.
There are problems with "%e" - > which(who) works on Linux and not on Windows - > "%#d" (this works on windows/wampserver)
I simply made a condition:
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] == "website.com") // On line
$number_of_the_day= "%e"; // Number of the day without "0"
$number_of_the_day = "%#d"; // The same on Windows/Wampserver
setlocale(LC_TIME, 'fr_FR.utf8','fra'); // I'm french !
// i use this fonction ucfirst('string') for "V" Maj. and "J" Maj.
echo ucfirst(strftime('%A '.$number_of_the_day.' %B %Y'));
// "Vendredi 1 Janvier 2016" (-> without "0")
Here we are, I hope to have helped.

It was arguably the most prestigious social event of the Southern California business community.
On Feb. 17, some 450 executives from all over Southern California converged upon the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Laguna Niguel, for the 16th Forum for Corporate Directors awards dinner.
The high-powered function was hosted by Michael A. Mussallem, chairman and chief executive of Edwards Lifesciences Corporation. Edwards was also one of the overall event sponsors, joined by the Walt Disney Co. assisting in underwriting the evening.
The annual dinner is created to bestow upon business leaders recognition for their excellence. The Forum for Corporate Directors labels the awards Directors of the Year and for the past 16 years 89 individuals have been honored by the organization.
John Della Grotta, chairman of the Forum for Corporate Directors and a partner of Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP, welcomed the arriving crush of dignitaries, including the five honorees for 2011. Included in the assemblage were a large contingent of Newport-Mesa business men and women, among them one of the 2011 honorees, Douglas K. Ammerman. Accepting the award for corporate governance, Ammerman serves on the boards of EPL Intermediate Inc., (El Pollo Loco Inc.), Fidelity National Financial Inc. and Quiksilver Inc.
From the boards of directors of Bank of America Corporation and the Walt Disney Co., Monica Lozano was awarded the corporate growth and development honor for 2011. Thomas E. Pardun, chairman of the board of Western Digital Corporation, was honored with an award for corporate leadership and service.
The founding chairman of Quality Systems Inc., Sheldon Razin received the enhancement of economic value honor. And finally, Murray E. Rudin, managing partner of Riordan, Lewis & Haden, was honored with the early stage company award.
The gathering was indeed a who's who of accomplishment in Southern California.
In the crowd was the distinguished Gen. William Lyon, a former honoree, joining Tom McKernan, former honoree and president and chief executive of the Automobile Club of Southern California.
Additional corporate honorees in attendance included Randall R. Lunn, Joseph Sullivan, Matt Wiitte, Dave Berkus, Fred Haney, Charlie Hobbs, Dave Holder, Bala Iyer and Fernando Niebla.
Also present was Gaddi H. Vasquez, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture in Rome, County Supervisor John Moorlach and the Alejandra Garcia-Williams, the Mexican consul in Orange County.
Major players in the arena of accounting and finance included John Belli, Robert Lucenti, Knute Kurtz, Dean Samsvick, Gary Wilson and Wayne Pinnell. Also spotted in the crowd were Glenn Schafer, Nick Yocca, Scott Mercer, Simon Biddiscombe, Steve and Linda Plochoki, and Dean Anil Puri of the Mlhaylo School of Business at Cal State Fullerton.
Mussallem handled the master of ceremonies duties with panache as the crowd shared dinner and acknowledged the business achievements of the honorees.
Founded in 1991, the Forum for Corporate Directors is a nonprofit business organization committed to promoting the highest standards of corporate governance and to increasing the effectiveness of directors, chief executives and senior level executives.
THE CROWD runs Thursdays and Saturdays. B.W. Cook is editor of the Bay Window, the official publication of the Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach.

In sufficient quantities, money and power are fungible. Just ask Michael Bloomberg.
But in lower quantities, they are not. If you are the sheriff of a small town, you have a great deal of power, but even if exploit your power for money, you're not likely to become a millionaire.
If you earn $100K a year in Budapest, you're a wealthy man who can exert some real influence. If you earn $100K a year in Palo Alto, you're busy trying to conceal your poverty from your neighbors.
The sad fact is that humans are comparison engines. Absolute wealth is less important than relative wealth. Power, because it is relative to the people around you, is a more reliable source of happiness.
Of course, neither money or power is a useful goal. These extrinsic motivations are less productive than intrinsic ones like caring relationships, personal growth, and community involvement. And studies show that even those who achieve their extrinsic goals remain unhappy.
So if someone asks you, "Money or Power," the correct answer is "Neither." (Though if pressed, go for power!)

Cummings Wealth Management Group
We're a financial services firm near Charleston, SC that has been in business for the last 19 years, the last six years under the name of Lighthouse Financial of Charleston. We live and work in a beautiful area, close to the ocean and downtown Charleston. We service local clients, their friends and families, by providing them with extensive comprehensive financial, estate and insurance planning. We've recently decided to change our company name and update our logo in order to align with who we are and what we specifically do. This logo will be on our outdoor sign, as well our stationary, business cards, website and advertisements.
Our target audience will be our prospective high net worth clients.
#88 is our current logo - If possible, please try to incorporate this lighthouse or maybe just the ribbons of color in to the new logo you create.
After reviewing all the designs, we decided what we like the best is the lighthouse on the left, with blue detailing of some sort and a beam of yellow light that fades out over the name. The name of the company should be on two lines - Cummings on one line - and Wealth Management Group on the next line with our tagline below. The name Cummings shouldn't be overly large, with WMG being about the same size or only slightly smaller (if possible).

For awhile, I'd been looking for a practical bag that reflects my personality. Since I'd previously ordered photography notecards from this site, I decided on a tote with one of my favorite films. (Sometimes I forget I have it, and it does get curious looks from other people!) So I'm happy with my nighttime/winter bag, and I plan on ordering another with different imagery for daytime/summer. It's also sturdy canvas and, even in the smallest size, fits all (two smaller bags, plus iPad, iPhone, keys, with plenty room left for more) I put into it.

How do I know which fruits and veggies lose their nutrition when cooked? I often use recipes that incorporate cooking veggies into things like meat, soups, crock pot cooking, etc. however, I question if there is any nutrition value left after they cook. I hate cooked fruits alone and I also hate steamed veggies. The only way I can really incorporate veggies is if I chop them up and cook them inside of things like meatballs, etc.
There may be some losses of nutrients from all fruits and veggies when they are cooked, although the losses are usually small. When incorporating fruits and veggies into soups, stews, one-dish meals etc. you may actually be retaining some of the nutrients in the liquid. You will get the nutrition benefits of fruits and veggies whether they are raw or cooked.

Rays Top Red Sox In Game One, 2-1
David DeJesus had a solo homer and drew a bases-loaded walk, and Tampa Bay's bullpen pitched 4 1-3 scoreless innings to lift the Rays to a 2-1 win over the Boston Red Sox on Thursday in the opener of a day-night doubleheader.
The win snapped Tampa Bay's three-game losing streak and was just its second victory in the past nine road games.
Jonny Gomes had an RBI single for the Red Sox, who had won three of their past four.
Red Sox third base coach Brian Butterfield was ejected by first base umpire Toby Basner for slamming his helmet to the ground in the seventh inning after a challenge on an out at the plate on what would have been the tying run.
Brandon Gomes (2-1), the first of four relievers, got four outs for the win. Grant Balfour recorded the final three for his fifth save, getting David Ortiz to ground out with a runner on second for the final out.

Crunch-A-Licious Almonds and a Food Gal Giveaway
By now, you probably know how much of an almond addict that I am.
I love to eat them by the handful, of course. But I also love to bake with almond flour, smear almond butter on toast, dig into spoonfuls of almond jello at Chinese restaurants, and nosh on any cookie made with sweet almond paste.
So, when Santé Nuts, a family-owned company in Santa Clara, recently sent me samples of its Garlic Almonds and Chipotle Almonds to try, I was practically delirious. The nuts themselves taste so incredibly fresh. You'll notice that difference right off the bat. There's a real crunch to them. The garlic ones are just garlicky enough so you still get the natural almond flavor, too. The chipotle ones have a slow smoky burn that's never overpowering, either.
Company founder Sara Tidhar roasts the nuts the way her grandmother taught her. Tidhar used to make them for friends and family as gifts. But when she found herself divorced and a single mom, she decided to take a leap of faith to create a business around her grandmother's tradition.
The rest is delicious history.
CONTEST: One lucky Food Gal reader will win a "Dad's Day 4-Pack" of two large bags of Santé Chipotle Almonds and Garlic Almonds.
Entries, limited to those in the continental United States, will be accepted through midnight PST Feb. 16 (Father's Day). Winner will be announced on Feb. 19.

Study: Casual video games demonstrate ability to reduce depression and anxiety
Table 1: Changes in Clinical Depression Between Control and Video Game Groups
GREENVILLE, N.C. and SEATTLE (Feb. 16, 2011) — A new study conducted at East Carolina University shows casual video games help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety in people with clinical depression.
ECU's Psychopsysiology Lab and Biofeedback Clinic released the findings of the one-year, randomized, controlled clinical study today.
Nearly 60 subjects, half of whom served as controls, all meeting the criteria of clinical depression, participated in the study, which involved three family-friendly, non-violent puzzle games: Bejeweled 2
, Peggle
and Bookworm Adventures
. All of the games are made by PopCap Games, underwriter of the study.
"The results of this study clearly demonstrate the intrinsic value of certain casual games in terms of significant, positive effects on the moods and anxiety levels of people suffering from any level of depression," said Dr. Carmen Russoniello, director of the ECU Psychophysiology Lab and Biofeedback Clinic, who oversaw the study along with previous studies involving the same games' effects on stress levels.
"In my opinion the findings support the possibility of using prescribed casual video games for treating depression and anxiety as an adjunct to, or perhaps even a replacement for, standard therapies including medication," he said.
Researchers used state-of-the-art technologies including psychophysiology, biochemical and psychological measurements. The experimental group experienced an average reduction in depression symptoms of 57 percent. The study, the first such research ever to measure the efficacy of video games in reducing depression and anxiety, also found significant reduction in anxiety, as well as improvements in all aspects of mood, among study subjects who played the casual video games.
Russoniello said research indicated games had both short term (after 30 minutes of game play) and long term (after one month) effects when compared to the control group. He said the results offer convincing evidence casual video games should be widely available to those who suffer depression.
"Given that only 25 percent of people who suffer from depression are receiving treatment, it seems prudent to make these low cost, readily accessible casual games video games available to those who need them," he said. "They should be made available at health clinics, community centers, online 'medical sites' and given out by therapists as a means of intervention."
The National Institute of Mental Health estimates 20.9 million American adults, or 9.5 percent of the U.S. population age 18 or older, suffer from a mood disorder. More than two-thirds of those — 14.8 million U.S. adults — suffer major depression, according to NIMH. Depression is the leading cause of disability in the U.S. for people aged 15 to 44. Depressive disorders often occur along with anxiety disorders, and approximately 40 million American adults (about 18 percent of all U.S. adults) have an anxiety disorder.
High-level findings of the study are provided below. Additional details, along with findings of previous studies, are available at
. Results indicate that there was a 57% average decrease in depression symptoms among participants in the experimental group and this was statistically significant when compared to the control group. Table 1 presents clinical results for PHQ-9 pre- and post-study for both the video game and control groups.
The video game group saw significant reductions in depression across the board, with all seven subjects previously classified as suffering from moderate to severe depression moving to the minor or minimal depression categories. At the same time, the number of subjects classified as having minor depression dropped from nine to four.
Graph 1 illustrates the decrease in depression symptoms in the casual video game group and shows how all participants in this group shifted into the mild symptom category.
Further analyses revealed differences in the effects of the games on male test subjects compared to female subjects, as well as differences between younger (less than 25 years) and older (equal to or greater than 25) study participants. Significant changes in overall mood (65% improvement on average) and anxiety level (20% reduction in anxiety on average) were also identified among subjects in the video game group. Even somatic, or overall physical, symptoms, improved in the experimental group, by 36% on average. Additional details on these and other initial findings of the study are available at
The study hypothesis, methodology and logistical plan were developed between July 2009 and August 2010, and the clinical state of the study was conducted between August 2010 and November 2010 and included a total of 59 subjects. Twenty-nine participants served as controls surfing the National Institutes of Mental Health's Web page on depression. The experimental group consisted of 30 participants with 18 choosing to play Bejeweled 2; seven participants chose to play Peggle and five participants chose to play Bookworm Adventures (BWA). There were 30 females and 29 males in the study. Participants ranged in age from 18 to 74 with average age calculated at 30. Sixty-five percent of the participants were European-Americans; twenty three percent were African Americans, 3.3% Hispanic Americans, 1.6 % Asian Americans and 3.3% other. Sixty-three percent were gamers and 31% were not. Twenty-three percent were on anti-depressant medications and 73 % were not. Additional specifics of the study methodology can be found at

djam needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 52 designs submitted by 12 freelance designers.
Taxi Fare Calculator
We are launching a new website, Taxi Fare Calculator, and it needs a new visual identity. The logo will be the main form of branding for the website. The website will give users an estimated taxi fare for a specified journey.
Internet users, primarily young/cool/tech savvy people. We want to target young people who are frequent taxi and public transport users. They might use taxis to get between meetings for work, or maybe they like to get a taxi home after a night on the town. Ideally we would like to cater for a bit of both; the young professional who works hard during the day and parties on the weekend. Think Gen Y.
Logo could include an image of a taxi (doesn't have to though - feel free to be creative) and include the words "Taxi Fare Calculator". Capitalisation not important.
Please do not use clip art.
Colour scheme could include yellow and/or orange, but we are very happy to see some other ideas for colours as well though. Some ideas for colors include the yellow/orange range between #ff9933 and #ffcc66.
The logo must also be suitable on a white background and suitable to convert to greyscale for printing.
The logo will initially be used online for a website, but may also be used for iPhone apps and other multimedia.
We'd like to be able to adapt the logo into an icon. When people see the icon, they should remember and associate it with the full logo and the website.
The logo should be funky/cool/modern/web 2.0 and attract users to the website.
File format needs to be either PSD or AI.
We have attached a preview of what the site will look like to help with colors, and possible ideas for the logo.

A winner was selected from 94 designs submitted by 32 freelance designers.
Logo to be used to brand new women's heart disease prevention program. Program focuses on educating women about their risk for heart disease, identifies individual risk, and assists women in managing that risk. Logo should be classy and professional with a female touch.
Her Heart
This logo will be used for all marketing and branding of a new cardiovascular disease prevention program specifically for women. The program will be housed on the campus of Woman's Hospital in Baton Rouge, LA. Marketing will be directed to OB/GYN practices as well as to women directly.

- Her Heart in larger font, perhaps in script with Cardiovascular Wellness for Women in smaller font
- Consider incorporating a heart or half heart in the logo
- Red as the primary color to borrow from the American Heart's Go Red campaign; doesn't have to be bright red, but avoid pink
- Classy, sophisticated, and professional
- Finished product in a vector format such as that produced by Adobe Photoshop
- Open to most ideas

I am selling a new set of Fortune Auto Coilovers custom ordered from MRP in New Zealand. We all know how hard it is to find a "Real" set of coilers for the 1st gen MR2's. I had to order them from MRP since they are the only ones that I could find who can get custom coilovers from Fortune. They will fit the 85/86 MR2's. They come with end links, and I ordered the front camber plates with 4 bolts like the 87-89 because I figured they would be stronger. Spring rates are 6kg front, 7kg rear. These are completely rebuildable by Fortune, and companies like real suspension in Ontario, CA. I paid 1300 shipped, and am asking 1100 shipped Firm. Located in Los Angeles. No trades. Reason for selling is I'm having to part with my MR2 after having it for 18 years because of its condition. Havent even opened the box to look at them. You can look me up on s2ki. I've sold many parts there. My username is "aw11". Wont let me attach pics. I can text them

Many of the products we offer are customizable, with cushions that are made-to-order. As a result, some of the manufacturers we sell do not accept returns of these items (except in the case of incorrect or defective items).
For those manufacturers that accept NON DAMAGED returns, the following information applies. All returns must be in original packaging and be received in original, new and re-stockable condition in order to receive a refund less return shipping charges and a maximum 15% factory re-stocking fee if applicable. Please contact us at for details.
After we receive and inspect your return, we will refund the credit card used for the purchase less return shipping fees and factory re-stocking fees if applicable. We never keep your credit card information on file so you will receive a call from one of our Customer Service Experts to process your refund.
Return shipping charges and factory re-stocking fees are not refundable (except in the case of incorrect or defective items). Shipping charges and factory re-stocking fees will be deducted from the total refund amount.

When your order arrives, be sure to inspect it to ensure that you received the correct products and that they were not damaged during transit. If you notice damages, be sure to note the damages with the delivery driver before you sign for it and contact our customer service department immediately. Although we experience very little concealed damages, we recommend (for large truck LTL deliveries) that you sign the delivery receipt notating "Pending Inspection". If you experience concealed damage, notating this for future reference will assist us with your claim process.
We know that sometimes it's not possible to notice all discrepancies before unpacking everything, long after the carrier has left. In such a case, please contact our Customer Service Experts within 14 Days of delivery and they will be happy to address the situation.
In all cases of damaged and incorrect shipments, we will gladly replace the item and the cost of shipping the item back to us for exchange.
After contacting us to process a return and get you a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number, you will need to prepare your item for shipment. Please repack the item to be returned securely in the original packaging. Please write your RMA number in large characters on the outside of the box. Make sure the package is fully sealed before shipping. We are not responsible for packages that are lost or damaged.

Mauro Nava's seven-year relationship with microlender Accion New Mexico-Arizona-Colorado paid off when the Mexico City native and his Ukrainian-born business partner, Olena Dziuba, decided to open a health clinic to serve residents of Albuquerque's underserved South Valley.
Clínica la Esperanza opened in October 2011 at Bridge and Isleta boulevards with seed money from the two partners to remodel the building and a line of credit from Accion to pay bills until the business started generating revenue.
Nava first contacted Accion in 2005 for funds to start a mobile radiography business called On-Site Radiography. Nava's perfect payment history on past Accion loans made him a good candidate for the most recent investment.
The clinic was Nava's idea, but Dziuba — who earned an accounting degree at the University of New Mexico — brought business acumen to the bargain. Both partners are fluent Spanish speakers, which matters in a neighborhood where many residents speak Spanish and are more likely to seek health care from a provider who can communicate in their native language. Clínica la Esperanza is just the type of business that Accion is designed to help. Both co-founders are hardworking immigrants whose goal of owning a business would have been hard — if not impossible — to achieve through a more traditional lender, such as a bank. Besides providing all the required documents in a timely and organized way, Nava and Dziuba had a realistic and detailed business plan.
But the lender/entrepreneur relationship is a two-way street.

The Final Chapter

Sure, this breaks normalization, but the scale of this break is tiny. Duplicating four fields each with a max of 30 characters for a total of 120 characters per record is nothing in terms of data when you compare to avoiding the mess of doing lots of profile-to-user joins on very large data sets.
One more thing, I've found that most users don't care about or for the division between their accounts and profiles. They are more than happy with a single form, and if they aren't, well you can still use this profile model to build both account and profile forms.
Alright, enough talking, let me show you how my Profile models tend to look:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.db import models from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _ class Profile(models.Model): """ Normalization breaking profile model authored by Daniel Greenfeld """ user = models.OneToOneField(User) email = models.EmailField(_("Email"), help_text=_("Never given out!"), max_length=30) first_name = models.CharField(_("First Name"), max_length=30) last_name = models.CharField(_("Last Name"), max_length=30) # username field notes: # used to improve speed, not editable! # Never changed after original auth.User and profiles.Profile creation! username = models.CharField(_("User Name"), editable=False) def save(self, **kwargs): """ Override save to always populate changes to auth.user model """ user_obj = User.objects.get(username=self.user.username) user_obj.first_name = self.first_name user_obj.last_name = self.last_name user_obj.email = self.email user_obj.is_active = self.is_active user_obj.save() super(Profile,self).save(**kwargs) def get_full_name(self): """ Convenience duplication of the auth.User method """ return "{0} {1}".format(self.first_name, self.last_name) @models.permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return ("profile_detail", (), {"username": self.username}) def __unicode__(self): return self.username
All of this is good, but you have to be careful with emails. Django doesn't let you duplicate existing emails in the django.contrib.auth.model.User model so we want to catch that early and display an elegant error message. Hence this Profile form:
from django import forms from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _ from profiles.models import Profile class ProfileForm(forms.ModelForm): """ Email validation form authored by Daniel Greenfeld """ def clean_email(self): """ Custom email clean method to make sure the user doesn't use the same email as someone else""" email = self.cleaned_data.get("email", "").strip() if User.objects.filter(email=email).exclude(username=self.instance.user.username): self._errors["email"] = self.error_class(["%s is already in use in the system" % email]) return "" return email class Meta: fields = ( 'first_name', 'last_name', 'email', ) model = Profile

Rude, crude and rowdy, "21 Jump Street"purports to be a major Hollywood movie. But it sure looks like the kind of trash TV that Jerry Springer used to promote.
However, this convoluted cop/buddy flick does manage to create some raunchy laughs in spite of the totally brain-dead story.
Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum play the unlikely pals who become undercover cops at their old high school. They're trying to identify nasty drug dealers at the school. Their investigation starts out as sweet-natured fun. But in the end, they engage in all manner of ridiculous R-rated activity.
Of course, they host a mandatory wild teenage party replete with alcohol, drugs and mindless sexual activity. Simplistic and stupid, no silly plot development is left behind. But the violently realistic shoot-out that ends with a pile of bloody corpses seems way out of place in this otherwise formula action comedy.
This movie is immature, raucous and full ofF-bombs. It will please the target audience that enjoys this type of bawdy low-brow entertainment. But it sure looks like the top layer of the dank compost heap that has become our current pop culture.
'Salmon' swims along nicely
In the whimsical"Salmon Fishing in the Yemen,"nothing is impossible if you are an incredibly wealthy visionary.
The book was intended as political satire, but director Lasse Halstrom ("Chocolat") has replaced most of the vinegar with sugar. Not really a bad thing, and it should boost book sales.
Financial consultant Harriet Chetwode-Talbot contacts Dr. Alfred Jones (Ewan McGregor) and says a client is interested in bringing his favorite pastime to his Middle Eastern people. Dr. Jones rightly thinks the idea preposterous, and it is only at the "urging" of the prime minister's office that he is obliged to take on the project.
The prim and proper (and married) Alfred has some surprises in store. Not only is Harriet (Emily Blunt) a real beauty, but Sheikh Muhammed (handsome Amr Waked) is an honorable man with lofty ideals. When he quietly says, "For a fisherman, the only virtues are patience, tolerance and humility" we readily believe that salmon may be the answer to world peace.
Kristin Scott Thomas brings her much-needed, ever-smiling disdain and wit as a chic press secretary.
The movie's other delight is hearing Alfred's clipped pronunciation of Harriet's last name. McGregor and Blunt have a lovely rapport, and one has no doubt their friendship will go swimmingly.

TACOMA, Wash., May 9 (UPI) -- Two girls and their mother testified in a Tacoma, Wash., courtroom Wednesday in the voyeur trial of Steven Powell, the father-in-law of a missing Utah mom.
The mother of the alleged victims, who were 9 and 8 when Powell allegedly filmed them in various stages of undress, testified she learned about the allegedly peeping tom from an investigator who showed up at the family's home, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
"He explained to us that when we lived at our rental house, our neighbor had taken pictures of us," the mother said.
She answered "absolutely not" when asked by Assistant Pierce County Prosecutor Bryce Nelson whether she had ever given anyone permission to film her children inside the family's home. She confirmed photos shown in court were of her children in the home's bathroom.
The older girl, now 15, testified she and her sister would use the bathroom with the door open because they were afraid to take a bath alone.
On cross examination by defense attorney Mark Quigley, the mother said she had seen another member of the Powell household, with dark hair and a beard, wearing pajamas and a robe, outside occasionally.
Powell, father-in-law of missing Utah woman Susan Powell, kept his voyeurism secret for years, Nelson said during his opening statement earlier in the day. Nelson told jurors the investigation into Susan Powell's disappearance uncovered Powell's activities, the Tribune said.
Detectives searching his files for information on his daughter-in-law found a computer disc, "disc 12," with images of a neighbor's two young daughters taken surreptitiously while they were undressing or using the bathroom in their home outside Puyallup, Wash.
Nelson said the girls and their parents were not aware of "a secret that Steve Powell kept hidden until Aug. 25, 2011."
"The evidence will show that the defendant filmed the girls for sexual gratification," Nelson said.
Steven Powell became notorious during the search for Susan Powell when he claimed she had come on to him sexually. One of his daughters came forward and said the opposite was true -- that her father had made overtures to Susan.
Quigley told jurors the case is not about Susan Powell or her deceased husband Josh. He said the prosecution still has the burden of proof in the case.
Susan Powell vanished in December 2009 from her home in West Valley, Utah. Her husband said he returned from a short camping trip with their two young sons to find her missing.
Investigators have said they are convinced Susan is dead and named her husband as a person of interest, although he was never charged. Josh Powell killed himself and his sons in February in an explosion at his rented home in Puyallup.

An MMO Fan Shot by reader CyYout
Following remarks by Sandy Alderson that a trade at this point in the offseason is unlikely, with most mutually-beneficial scenarios for an exchange explored, it seems the only way to improve the team by addition is by signing free agents.
Alderson has made clear he is still looking for an innings eater in the rotation to compete with the young guns for that fifth spot and also for a veteran presence in the bullpen, preferably a late-inning option.
As most fans know, as it has been discussed endlessly on these boards, the Mets could also benefit, at least in the short term, from an upgrade at first base and shortstop.
Many think that Ike Davis and Ruben Tejada, young players with a track record of success who are probably just as likely to turn it around as they are to repeat their 2013 performances, deserve another crack at nailing down their positions. While I think that is an acceptable decision, and would still go into the season full of optimism, there are two players who would legitimize the lineup and go a long way toward giving the Mets an outside chance at a wild card this year.
The first is Stephen Drew, who while not an elite player, brings above-average defense, and after a career year in 2013, significant offensive upside to the position. The second, Kendrys Morales, has been labeled as DH and unsuited to handle a full-time role at first base in the National League. But for all his time at DH, he has also played plenty of games at first base, and can generally be considered only a minor defensive liability at worst. At 30 years of age, in my opinion, he still has youth and the athleticism that comes with it, to handle the field for a full season. Not much needs to be said about his bat, which has always been a middle-of-the-order presence and consistently productive.
The benefits of having two upgraded positions also comes with secondary benefits for the rest of the Mets players individually. Pitchers won't feel they need to pitch a perfect game for a chance to win as was the case with Matt Harvey and last year's anemic offense.
Similarly, Davis and Tejada will not have the added pressure of needing to perform on the biggest stage in the biggest market and can continue their development; Davis' success in Las Vegas after his demotion mid-summer is a testament to the fact kinks are better worked out before the curtain goes up at showtime. If Davis does find success again, his value increases as a trade candidate, or he will be better-prepared to handle a promotion if the occasion arises. Which brings me to my next point.
The fact is both Drew and Morales turned down qualifying offers, which immediately made them unmarketable to a majority of teams unwilling to give up a first-round pick for them. However, since the Mets have their 2014 first-round pick protected, and have relinquished their second-round pick for Granderson, these players would only cost a third and fourth-round pick, respectively. They are also likely willing to commit to a short-term deal for a reasonable salary considering the lack of a market if it gets late enough in the game.
Many fans would rather wait for next offseason to get a shortstop in the event, and inevitability as some fans see it, that Tejada continues to regress. Though there is a stronger shortstop free agent class next year, there will also be more competition with teams like the Yankees presumably in the market as well. And it could also cost a first-round pick if the Mets are good enough this year to avoid a bottom-third record, which could very well happen considering the already-upgraded offense and the promotion and progress of young players like Zack Wheeler, Travis d'Arnaud, Juan Lagares, and Noah Syndergaard, among others.
Finally, the Mets could potentially benefit from Drew and Morales leaving the team after a one or two-year contract. If the Mets made qualifying offers to both and were turned down they would be entitled to a first-round compensation pick for each. Or better yet, if a team got desperate at the trading deadline, which is when teams become desperate, Alderson could use his best talent and find some nice prospects in return.
Ultimately, every move comes with risks, and not making a move at all might be the riskiest. In my opinion, these two players can do what the front office has been wanting all along. To improve the team now without mortgaging away the future.

The Argentine ant has spread to every continent except Antarctica, overwhelming native ants with its sheer numbers and fierce battle tactics. But this invader may have met its match in a recent U.S. arrival: the Asian needle ant. The cross-species face-off, a surprise to entomologists, could harm ecosystems where the battle lines are drawn.
Although invading ants make up just a handful of the more than 12,400 described ant species in the world, they have an outsized impact on ecosystems, economies and human health. Invasive ants often kill, eat or outcompete native ant species that play key roles in their environment. Whereas many native ants are gardeners, tilling the soil and planting seeds, alien ants do not usually pick up the jobs of those they push out. The Asian-Argentine rivalry is a rare opportunity for researchers to observe an invasion in progress.
Scientists at North Carolina State University stumbled on the unfolding ant war several years ago. Eleanor Spicer Rice, an entomology graduate student at the time, was tracking a network of Argentine ant nests in an office park in Morrisville, N.C., and found a few nests of Asian needle ants. She remembers thinking that it was "really weird that another ant could be nesting within the Argentine territory." (Argentine ants do not tolerate competition.) Weirder still, the Asian ants were driving the others back.
The researchers wondered how the outnumbered Asian ants were gaining a leg (or six) up. Cold-tolerance tests in the laboratory hinted that they were better adapted to the temperate North Carolina climate than the tropical Argentine ants; whereas the Asian needle ants shook off their winter sluggishness as early as March, the Argentine ants did not resume activities until late April or early May, the entomologists reported on February 8 in PLOS ONE. If so, Asian needle ants may be winning the war in North Carolina simply because the state is at the northern limit of the Argentine ant's range.
An Asian needle ant takeover would be bad news for Argentine and native ants and for humans. The Asian ant's burning sting can induce a life-threatening allergic reaction in sensitive individuals. "More people are allergic to Asian ant stings than to honeybee stings," Spicer Rice says.
To figure out how far the Asian ants are spreading, North Carolina State researchers have turned to citizen scientists. Their project, School of Ants, asks volunteers to find insects in cities and suburbs and send in specimens. To date, they have found Asian ants from New York City to Washington State.
As climate change, travel and disrupted habitats offer more opportunities for invading ants, the species wars will continue.

In addition to addressing concerns over the Measure L Advisory Committee re-visioning purpose, Mayor Dan Clark spoke on the general concerns of the budget at Saturday's Democratic Club of the High Desert's brunch.
Clark noted some potentially harsh decisions coming up in the next budget process.
"We're faced with another $800,000 budget cut next year and we're absolutely devastated with what we're going to do," he said.
Clark did not specify what decisions needed to be made.
However, during the Dec. 19 city council meeting, many programs, including parks and recreations, were put on notice about their budgets.
The city itself had to make many cuts for the remainder of the FY 2012-13 year after being broadsided by reports that first-quarter revenues for the city was less than expected.
""I don't know that we can cut anymore to be totally honest," Clark said. "We have departments made up of one person; the city can't run without a planner, it can't run without a parks and recreation director. We're going to have to consolidate or something."
He encouraged the public to give its input when budget discussions began coming up in city council meetings.
Clark said revenue building and economic development should be a priority rather than cutting at the other end.
"I don't know where we can cut $800,000 at and it scares me to death," he said. "Economic development has got to be a solution to our problems right now."
A question was floated about why China Lake NAWS did not take advantage of and support the community economically. Clark said that it was a subject he was looking into.
"Our base doesn't pay taxes and that has been our biggest concern," he said. "Many communities our size have $60 or $70 million budgets. We have a $13 million budget."
Clark said in looking at that, Ridgecrest has been able to say solvent up to present while other cities in the state have gone bust.
Ridgecrest faced a potential $1.2 million shortfall had it not made a number of cuts and creative adjustments to its budgets. This included utilizing a $625,000 settlement from Kern County to fill a budget gap in addition to fulfilling some obligations.
In addition, $575,000 received from Benz Sanitation as part of a settlement will be used as a reserve fund for up to two years. The amount was initially a loan from the Wastewater fund that was due to be paid back.
DCHD president Ron Carter said that the city had engaged with Kevin McCarthy about Congress helping Ridgecrest at least with helping to make up with declining property tax revenue.
"He has told us no over and over again and that really disappoints me," Carter said. Carter asked if McCarthy could do anything to help the city.
Clark pointed out that one thing that McCarthy and city government shares is that the congressman would not support any bills that have "write-arounds" in them.
"I respect that but the other side of the issue is that it hurts us as a community because he has laid down the law that it's the way he is going to operate as a congressman.," Clark said.
Club officer nominations
The DCHD also moved on with nominations for its officers for 2013. Ron Carter was nominated for president, Odessa Newman-Staples as its vice president, and Eddie Edwards as its secretary-treasurer.
A fourth position was added to the nomination process, with Matthew Alexander being nominated for public relations officer.
The club will vote next month to confirm its officers.
In addition, Carter congratulated Howard Laire on his appointment to the Desert Empire Fair's board of directors. Laire was appointed to the board by Gov. Jerry Brown on Nov. 16 along with Kim Alexander.
